Best ice cream shops in NYC
Whether you're craving a sundae, sorbet or popsicle, these awesome ice cream shops will hook you up with the best classic and original flavors
New Yorkers don't often end up with a naked scoop on a sugar cone, and that's because we expect the works from our favorite ice cream shops—and no, we're not just talking sprinkles. Options at the best ice cream shops for kids in New York City range from the whimsical (think gelato in the shape of a flower) and the obsessively pure (locally sourced milk pasteurized and infused on-site) to the just plain bananas (care for some Sriracha on your sundae?). Don't worry—they all offer classic favorites, too. See our Time Out Kids ice cream taste test to see local kiddos taste some of the city's quirkier flavors while you're at it, and also be sure to browse our list of the best ice cream sundaes in the area. If you're also in need of a more substantial snack, visit one of the best 50 family restaurants in NYC or cruise our list of New York pizza for families.
Ample Hills Creamery, Gowanus
This ice-cream paradise brings your kids' favorite treat to the next level with an ever-rotating menu of outrageous flavors crafted on-site from the freshest ingredients. Figuring out what to order is the hard part—we suggest the Munchies, with pretzels, potato chips, Ritz crackers and mini M&Ms. You could order your ice cream in a plain ol' cup, but why would you when you can get it on a warm brownie? The new location in Gowanus has booths and counter seating, but take your treats up to the outdoor roof deck where the kids can pedal an ice cream–churning bike and take in stunning views of the Manhattan skyline frame by the Gowanus Canal below. The shop is also home to a huge production facility; little ones (and their parents) will love watching the ice cream being made. Get excited for a new outpost at Bubby's High Line in the Meatpacking district, opening spring 2016!
OddFellows Ice Cream Co.
The fact that inspiration for this new ice cream shop came from its pregnant co-owner's midnight food cravings explains a lot: Here, you'll find kooky combos like chorizo caramel swirl (you'll swear you just ate Brazilian) and a spicy lime tarragon sorbet made the old-fashioned way. Milk, which is locally sourced and pasteurized in-house, is infused with flavor even before the freezing process begins. Inspired by old-school soda fountains, Mason fills the lofty beige room with vintage accents, including a chalkboard menu, custom wooden stools and dangling schoolhouse lights. Steer kids to the maple bacon pecan, mango or aromatic strawberry lavender sorbet, or splurge for the to-die-for cornbread sundae, topped with blueberry compote, maple syrup and bacon-scented whipped cream, and nab a seat at the red-topped counter for house-made sodas and thick shakes spun from the daily offerings.
Momofuku Milk Bar
We're on the fence as to whether our favorite invention from Momofuku pastry chef Christina Tosi is her crack pie or the ice cream version of her silly-brilliant, much-copied dessert invention, the Cereal Milk shake. Like the addictive drink after which it's named, the ice cream base is made by steeping toasted Corn Flakes in organic whole milk to give it its familiar yet decadent, trademark flavor and adding a bit of salt and sugar; then it's poured whipped in the soft-serve machine. Have your cone garnished with toasted Corn Flake crunch, which adds both flavor and bite to the creamy indulgence
Ice cream "petals" fashioned into rose blooms are the signature of this Italian gelateria, the first U.S. location of a large European chain. Pick a few flavors for your flower-shaped gelato—the shop offers 22 of them, including chocolate-hazelnut, amarena cherry and Brazilian coffee. The artisanal scoops boast top-notch ingredients, such as organic eggs, Madagascar bourbon vanilla and Ecuadoran Grand Cru chocolate.
People's Pops
Forget gross, store-brand sugar water popsicles. People's Pops brings the fresh fruit back into your favorite frozen treats and offers a rotating menu of the best pops you've ever tasted. Try the Strawberry Rhubarb or Red Plum & Blueberry to cool down on a hot day.
Victory Garden
If you're trying to keep on top of your family's daily fat allowance but are overcome with a need for the comfort of creamy, house-made ice cream, head to the West Village's Victory Garden, a shop that feels like it belongs in the countryside. Its soft-serve, made from local goats' milk and other farm-fresh ingredients, is inspired by Anatolian dondurma, a supersmooth yet toothsome ice cream frequently flavored with herbal treats like lavender or mastic, a Mediterranean plant resin. Owner Sophia Brittan, who chose goat milk over cows' for its lower fat content, easy digestibility and flavor, offers several flavors year-round—among them kid favorites salty caramel and chocolate, which can be swirled together in a cone or cup (pictured), plus our personal favorite, Tangy Goat Milk (technically, this one's a frozen yogurt but don't tell the kids).
Big Gay Ice Cream Shop
Ice-cream truckers Doug Quint and Bryan Petroff offer their quirky soft-serve creations in a small East Village shop—the pair pads their menu with sweet treats from flea-market friends: La Newyorkina (ice pops), Melt Bakery (ice cream sandwiches) and Danny Macaroons. Bonus: This location boasts a giant unicorn mural bedazzled with 6,000 Swarovski crystals.
Sundaes and Cones
This Brooklyn ice cream shop relocated to the East Village, but the flavors didn't change. Enjoy classic picks like Vanilla and Chocolate alongside the more quirky Wasabi. Ginger, Corn, Tiramisu and Black Sesame. There's also non-fat and no-sugar-added ice cream in addition to frozen yogurt! Last but not least, little ones will be happy to know that they can sample any flavor they want before selecting their perfect cone.
Blue Marble Ice Cream
The small-batch wares at this Brooklyn mini-chain are crafted on a Hudson Valley farm from organic dairy and sugar. Kids can top the cold stuff with all-natural, often locally harvested toppings, including honey, hot fudge, sea salt, Nunu chocolates or, for the very adventurous, balsamic vinegar.
Il Laboratorio del Gelato
Il Laboratorio del Gelato offers a huge selection of handmade, small-batch gelato. The kiddos may prefer flavors like dulce de leche, chocolate, passion fruit and watermelon while the grownups might go for orange hibiscus, coconut, bourbon pecan or baileys. The shop also offers super unusual picks like avocado, cashew, earl grey and celery for adventurous eaters.
Morgenstern's Finest Ice Cream
Morgenstern offers a contemporary twist on your average ice cream parlor, boasting serious attention to texture, flavor and use of natural ingredients. The ice cream hotspot offers ice cream cakes in addition to ice cream flavors like Blueberry Labne, Coffee Caramel, Strawberry Durian and Salted Pretzel Caramel.
Melt Bakery
Perfect for little ones who just can't decide between a soft baked cookie and a cold summery treat, the crafty Melt Bakery serves up a delicious dose of both. As the only shop in the city that sells ice cream sandwiches exclusively, you might expect business to lag behind other, more traditional shops, but owner Julian Plyter is confident in two things: "They're perfect for kids because they aren't messy at all. Parents love that!"—plus, he swears he makes the only (correct) Snickerdoodle in Manhattan. Kid favorites here include the Lovelet, a red velvet whoopee pie with cream cheese ice cream and the Classic (with chocolate chip walnut cookies). Most sandwiches also come in mini sizes.

You'll find me at Ample Hills the second it's warm out. They have a pretty epic rotating menu (I tried something with Banana that was really good) plus their go-to favorites like the Munchies. For parents, it's also a great spot for kids' birthday parties.

Today, with a growing trend toward reduced hospital stays, home healthcare is gaining in popularity. While caregivers of the past were generally family members or friends, home healthcare today usually consists of a professional healthcare team working toward a common goal.Today home healthcare may be considered for patients who are:Recovering from an illnessUndergoing treatmentDisabledChronically illTerminally illHome healthcare is not a choice for everyone. Generally, the patient receiving care or treatment at home must be well enough to be cared for in the home setting.Types of home healthcare servicesMany types of medical and social home healthcare services are available and may include:Healthcare provider careNursing carePhysical, occupational, and/or speech therapyMedical social servicesCare from home health aidesHomemaker or attendant careCompanionshipVolunteer careNutritional supportMedical equipment and suppliesLaboratory and X-ray imagingPharmaceutical servicesTransportationHome-delivered mealsA patient may receive 1 of these services or a combination of several services.Who provides home healthcare services?Various agencies and other companies provide home healthcare, including:Home health agenciesHomemaker and home care aide agenciesPharmaceutical and infusion therapy companiesDurable medical equipment and supply dealersStaffing registries and private duty agenciesIndependent providers Health Encyclopedia A B C D E F G H I J K L M N O P Q R S T U V W X Y Z Search Health Library

It is essential that Iowa makes job creation its highest priority. Private sector jobs and small business are the economic engines that create wealth, and we need to do everything we can to improve the health of the private sector job creators.
We need to support manufacturing, agriculture and other industry by creating a tax environment that encourages growth.
We must reform our regulatory policies and procedures. Everywhere I turn, everyone I talk to has examples of regulatory barriers to job creation. From my perspective in ag-business and farming, I see many regulations that are frustrating at the least, but more importantly, are costly and detrimental to a productive business environment.
We must reform our education system to compete in today's world. Not so many years ago Iowa consistently led the nation in education performance. Now we languish in the middle of the pack. I believe we've lost our focus on the basics of teaching children. We need to find ways to create a better learning environment, to allow our teachers to focus solely on teaching the fundamentals, and to expect positive outcomes. We all know that reading is a problem for many, but in my experience children leave school not even knowing how do manage personal finances. That is a disservice to our students, our state and our nation.
A bright future also requires that our Iowa constitution is not ignored by politicians, or distorted by judges. We have unfinished business with respect to the definition of marriage in Iowa. The process the Court used to change the Defense of Marriage Act was unconstitutional, and the result of the Supreme Court's rejection of the law is unacceptable. Folks, let us not forget, our great state belongs to "we the people".
The people of Iowa spoke very loud and clear in November 2010 by voting three Supreme Court judges off the bench. Now, the Legislature and Governor must address the matter rather than allowing the Supreme Court to legislate and execute law from the bench.

"I had an extended opportunity to discuss everything with my family and after those conversations we believed, along with the coaching staff, that Marquette was the best place for me to continue my career," Anderson said.
The 6-6, 210-pounder has appeared in 59 career games for the Golden Eagles, earning 31 starting assignments. He played in all 35 games during MU's 2012-13 run to the Elite Eight and started all but four of the contests.
"After multiple conversations that have transpired over the last month with Juan and his family, he has decided to come back to Marquette and rejoin our program," head coach Buzz Williams said. "He is grateful for this opportunity and I am convinced this is the right thing to do."

10 Absurdities Of The Modern Culture
The world has its fair share of ridiculousness. For more groundbreaking stories from around the globe, tune in to the premiere of VICE this Friday, April 5th on HBO.
1. The world's most expensive coffee is made from cat poo
Kopi Luwak—made from faeces of the civet—is the world's priciest and rarest coffee; a cup will set you back about thirty dollars.
2. Bagel Heads
People create this shocking effect by sitting for hours while saline solution is injected into their foreheads. The swelling goes down after a day, so this practice allows body modification enthusiasts to experiment without the permanence.
3. Penis-snatching panic
An anthropologist reports that a genital-stealing wave and fear is spreading across parts of Africa. Witnesses are claiming that it's part of an illegal trade of organs, sometimes involving magic channeled through a simple handshake.
4. Human Billboards
Hostgator Dotcom (formerly Billy Gibby) sold the rights to his name in the mid-2000s and continues to tattoo his body with URLs of paying companies.
5. Barbie flu
In southern Ukraine, girls are using plastic surgery and makeup to transform themselves into characters that resemble real-life barbies and anime girls as a way of gaining international attention.
6. Bears getting high
There used to be a simpler time when we only had to worry about grizzlies nabbing picnic baskets, but now some bears in Russia are addicted to aviation fuel, sniffing it until they become unconscious.
7. Otherkin
This is a community of people who identify as mythical beings (e.g., werewolves, elves, fairies) who were born into human bodies. They are largely connected through the internet, brought together by finding a closeness to nature and their feelings of feeling laughed at and marginalized.
8. Dekotora
It started with Japan's booming shipping industry and popular movie Truck Guys, and these "decorated trucks" have now been embraced by hobbyists. People spend tens of thousands of dollars to cover their trucks in neon lights and elaborate murals, even revamping the interior to create small living quarters.
9. Mormon Lost Boys
The "Lost Boys" are those who have been thrown out of the Fundamentalist Latter-Day Saints Church because elder men have monopolized all of the eligible young girls. VICE travels to the border between Utah and Arizona to listen to their twisted stories.
10. Juggalos
The FBI released a report calling these fans of Insane Clown Posse a street gang, but when most of them gather together, they do mostly harmless stuff like spray people with Faygo soda.

President Obama wouldn't likely be able to pass a big climate bill in a second term, says his former energy czar, but he could take a lot of smaller steps that would achieve real emission cuts.
The enthusiasm in the greenroom, where Scarlett Johansson and Mary J. Blige mingled with big-name pols, spilled out into the convention hall. Enthusiasm for climate action — well, that wasn't so easy to spot.
Rep. Ed Markey, one of the biggest climate hawks in Congress, is now talking up President Obama's "all-of-the-above" energy strategy, from renewables to oil drilling.
Michelle Obama, Julian Castro, and other headliners generated a lot of energy — just not the kind you can power a house or a car with.
Where does Jon Huntsman stand on climate change now that he's out of the presidential race? Grist interviews the former candidate to find out.
Sen. Lamar Alexander (R-Tenn.) tells Grist why he's crossing party lines to slash energy company subsidies and pour money into cleantech research.
Men are running the show at most of the companies pushing renewables, efficiency, clean cars, and the smart grid — but that's starting to change.
While the clean-energy sector is very much a boy's club, women are starting to break down the clubhouse door. Here's a list of top women in cleantech.

Hot Franks
2701 Penn Avenue
Pittsburgh, PA 15222-4711
(412) 281-2626
Sam comes from Ellwood City, PA. He grew up with two hot dog shops: Red Hot and Pee Wees. They each had their own charm and today, only Red Hot remains.
Nina comes from Englehard, NC. She doesn't like hot dog chili with beans and eats cole slaw on her chili dog.
Together, they came to Hot Franks.
Sam was impressed that they were owned by the same people who are Bill's Sandwich Shop in New Castle, PA, which is near Ellwood. He walked in talking about New Castle Chili Sauce and Bill, the owner, was even there and shook his hand. Ah, an Ellwood City boy in the big lights of Pittsburgh.
All we can say is: go to Hot Franks. Keep it in business. It's not hip. Not fancy. It's nice. It's clean. You can get beer with your hot dogs. And this isn't Dee's or any of those cool hot dog places. You can get most of the dogs for around $2. The chili? It's just perfect. No lie. But come here. Keep it in business. We were searching for a place to eat and just wanted to eat amongst real people, not pork pie hats.
Hot Franks. Nina's second favorite chili dog in Pittsburgh. That girl? She's rough on chili dogs. I've seen her outright get upset at a chili dog. This is the best review we can give.

Dodge Repair Questions? Ask a Mechanic for Answers ASAP
Hello and welcome to JustAnswer!
Does the temperature gauge warm up to it's normal position, or does it stay very low near the bottom while driving?
Do you get any heat at all - does the air warm up a little but not enough?
Does it get any warmer when you are accelerating?
So were you changing the coolant, and that's why you were filling it up? Or was it low and you were topping it off?
Was the heat working before that?
Did you bleed the cooling system when you filled it back up?
I was topping off because it was low.
The heat did work prior to the last couple of days.
No I did not bleed the cooling system before filling it back up.
Again thank you for your time.
I think you probably just have air in the heater core. If you had a thermostat stuck open the engine wouldn't get to normal operating temperature. Bleeding the air out will probably take care of the problem.
With the car cool to avoid burns, remove the radiator cap and make sure the bottle is near full. Start the engine and leave the cap off. While it's warming follow the top radiator hose to the engine and you will find the coolant bleeder housing where the hose attaches. It will have what looks like a brake bleeder screw. With the engine running open this bleeder and leave it open until you get a full stream of coolant with no air and then close it. Allow the engine to run with the cap off until it reaches full operating temperature. Have the heat turned on so you can feel what is going on. When it gets to operating temperature if you still have no heat raise the rpms a bit and hold them there for 20-30 seconds, and you will probably start to feel heat. This will cause the water pump to force coolant through the heater core and purge the air out. Throughout the whole process you'll want to keep an eye on the coolant level, and periodically open the bleeder screw to check for air. When you have good heat and are no longer seeing any air bubbles come up in the coolant bottle or from the bleeder, then make sure the level is correct and put the radiator cap back on. Throughout the process be aware of the moving belts and pullies, and be careful of the hot coolant and steam.
If you had to add very much coolant to start with you may have a leak somewhere. Keep an eye on the coolant level for the next few days even if you don't see any leaks on the ground.

The Happy Money research also shows that we often radically undervalue our time, for instance by wasting hours on a miserable layover in Atlanta rather than spending the extra $150 to get a direct flight.
Perhaps most counterintuitively, they found that giving money away is more likely to make you happy than spending it on yourself. When random passersby were given a $5 bill and were instructed to either spend it on themselves or to spend it on someone else, those who gave it away reported feeling significantly happier that evening.
Spending on others makes you feel good, generous and wealthy.
In Happy Money, authors Elizabeth Dunn and Michael Norton analyze what spending choices maximize happiness. Here are some of their suggestions.
Five ways to buy joy
1. Buy experiences
Studies have shown that paying for trips or special meals creates more happiness than buying objects. Even spending a few dollars to play a video game or hear a song provides more lasting happiness than buying a few trinkets.
2. Make it a treat
Humans adapt to everything, including things that make us happy. Research shows that we vastly underestimate just how quickly our pleasure will fade. Instead of cutting out ice cream completely, by limiting it to special occasions we can "re-virginize" ourselves, renewing our capacity for pleasure.
3. Buy time
While wealth theoretically allows us to outsource some of our most hated tasks, most people tend to overvalue money and undervalue time. Before you make a purchase, think: "How will this change the way I use my time?"
4. Pay now, consume later
Paying up front and delaying your consumption is one way to increase your happiness on any given purchase. Vacations make us most happy because of the anticipation. Studies have shown that even waiting briefly before eating a Hershey's Kiss makes it taste better.
5. Invest in others
Research shows that spending money on others can make you more happy than spending on yourself. This is true for Warren Buffett, who famously decided to give away 99 per cent of his wealth, but studies also show that it's true for Ugandan women buying life-saving malaria medication for a friend. Earn your money, but to be happiest, it helps to spread it around.
That said, there is no one prescription – the idea of carefully creating a ledger of expenditures based on psychological research, following your budget, and then expecting to be happy at the end is misguided. Indeed, there have been numerous studies that show that perhaps the least helpful thing you can to do is consciously focus on your happiness.
While academics might argue about the precise nature of the relationship between money and happiness, they would all agree that we tend to overvalue it. A national survey revealed that Americans thought that their life satisfaction would double if they made $55,000 rather than $25,000. In fact, such an income leap only produces 9 per cent more happiness.
You can read the studies or watch a blockbuster F. Scott Fitzgerald adaptation to get the same message: Money matters, of course. But it never matters quite as much as we think it will.Report Typo/Error

Biodiversity data cleaning and data publishing training course in ICIPE
Biodiversity information initiatives are making large quantities of data readily available to the scientific community. These data open exciting opportunities for exploring, documenting, and understanding biodiversity worldwide. Data come from diverse sources and are heterogeneous in content, quality, and format. As a result, careful data preparation and quality control is an important step prior to any analysis.
This two-part course covers two critical steps in the process: how to prepare a biodiversity data set for analysis and open sharing, and how to 'publish' data for global open access. Instructors include John Wieczorek, Laura Russell, and other leaders in this field in North America and Europe.
25 people. All researchers, students, technicians, planners, managers, and other interested persons from across Africa are welcome to apply. To maximize cost-effectiveness, participants from outside of East Africa will be limited in number, particularly in light of plans to hold parallell courses in at least three other African cities in the near future. Approximately 20-25 applicants will be selected to participate in the training course.
Final selection of participants will be based on the following criteria: (1) Applicability of course material to the applicant's occupation, research, studies, or overall interest; (2) Adequate knowledge or experience in related fields so as to maximize the benefit of participation in the training course; (3) Potential for further sharing and diffusion of knowledge acquired during training; (4) Strength of letter of recommendation from current employer/supervisor.
Please contact the organizers of this event at BiodivTraining (AT) gmail.com. Completed applications are due no later than 1 November 2012.

"I have little bumps and bruises right now, so I'm loving the bye week," said running back Jamaal Williams with a smile. "I think physically, everything will be taken care of by the time we start playing again."
On the other side of the ball, linebacker Brandon Ogletree knows how Williams feels.
"Yeah, just the typical bumps and bruises, you know, nine games into the season without a bye week," said Ogletree. "Every week just kind of adds up on itself, so it's kind of nice to be able to relax a little and recover."
The breathe-easy week comes after a very impressive offensive and defensive performance at Bobby Dodd Stadium. The Cougars put on a dominant show on the road against ACC foe Georgia Tech.
"Oh man, it was really gratifying," said Ogletree. "Anytime you limit a really good offense like we did, I mean, it really just makes all the hard work during the week pay off just seeing everyone fly around and have fun."
Prior to game, Coach Mendenhall promised his Cougars that if they gave it all they had, he would "take care of them" the following week.
"Yeah, I mean, it was a physical game going into it, and we came out of it with some bumps and bruises," Ogletree said. "Coach kind of promised us that if we laid it all out on the line, that he would take care of us this week. He kept true on his promise right there."
Does that mean steak dinners or the hiring of a team of massage therapists?
"I wish it was steak dinners," said Ogletree with a laugh. "No, just lots of running and just not really any contact, and we just practice in helmets. That's what's nice about it."
"Right now we're just focusing on getting our priorities straight and practicing a little, but not hard, with the mindset of still working," said Williams. "That's what it mostly is for the bye week. It's about not getting too relaxed because we have a game next week. The linemen, they have regeneration which is stretching and jogging around and things like that. Then the skill guys, we have skeli and seven-on-sevens and things like that we're doing to make sure we stay fit and sharp on our game. It's not a full, normal day of practice, but just to make sure we do something to stay fit."
"We'll practice a few more times during the week," said Ogletree. "Mainly the focus is just kind of getting healthy, rejuvenating and coming back to play next week.
"Lots of individual work with the coaches just kind of fine-tuning some things. You know, obviously, there's still some stuff we still need to work on, but the bye week is a week to recover to get ready to recover and get ready for next week."
The week also includes less film work and a time to catch up on school work, Ogletree said.
So the Cougars will approach the bye week as a time for much needed catching up, whether physically, mentally or with school work. They better enjoy it, because next week Coach Mendenhall will probably have some things in store for them as they look to close out the season strong.
"We still have our goals," Ogletree said. "I mean, Coach kind of showed us a few of the defensive rankings and showed us what teams are in front of us and pointed out, 'Hey, you're not number one in any of those.' We still have our goals in front of us and we're going to work like crazy like we always do."

Red Lentils with Spinach and Caramelized Onions
1 large onion, very thinly sliced
2 tablespoons ghee or butter
3 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 cup red lentils, soaked for 12 to 24 hours (measured before soaking)
1 large carrot, peeled and diced
1 1/2 cups chicken stock or broth, preferably homemade
4 cups fresh spinach, stems removed and roughly chopped
salt and pepper, to taste
Melt the ghee or butter in a medium saute pan or skillet over medium low heat. Add the onion and cook, stirring frequently, until soft and golden brown, about 15 minutes. Stir in the balsamic vinegar; remove from heat and set aside.
Drain the lentils and rinse thoroughly. Combine with the chicken broth and carrot in a large saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Reduce heat to low; cover and simmer until the lentils are done, about 15 to 20 minutes.
Uncover the lentils and stir; they should be very soft and a little soupy. Stir in the spinach and caramelized onions; continue cooking over low heat until the spinach is wilted and the onions are heated through, 3 to 5 minutes. Remove from heat, cover with a clean dish towel, then the lid and set aside for 10 minutes.
Season to taste with salt and pepper and serve.

Gloria Stuart Passes Away at 100 Years of Age
Posted Monday September 27, 2010 2:37 PM GMT
She experienced a resurgence in her career thanks to her role in "Titanic," and yesterday (September 26) Gloria Stuart passed away.
The beloved actress, who celebrated her 100th birthday this past July 4th, was diagnosed with lung cancer five years ago, though it's unclear if that was the cause of her death.
And though many only know Ms. Stuart from her work with Leonardo DiCaprio and Kate WInslet, she had quite the career back in the 1930s.
Gloria appeared in films like "The Invisible Man," "Poor Little Rich Girl," and "Here Comes the Navy."

"Poetry" and "Science" at Jacket2
Slip on your lab coats and sample some great essays and discussions revolving around poetry and science at Jacket2. A little bit about the forum:
The following forum, initially taking off from a PoemTalk program on a Zukofsky lyric, directly engages questions regarding relations between poetry and science (a range of sciences). Contributions by eleven poets — Rae Armantrout, Amy Catanzano, John Cayley, Tina Darragh, Marcella Durand, Allen Fisher, James Harvey, Peter Middleton, Evelyn Reilly, and Joan Retallack — in the form of poems, critiques of poems, musings, and contentions broadly address how poetry can serve science no less than how science can serve poetry, as well as the degree of discursive integrity each should or can enjoy in the interplay.
So many reasons and ways to geek out!

The 22-year-old injured his foot during South Africa's three-day tour match on Friday. He stepped on a pebble and could only bowl five overs.
"X-rays have revealed that Morkel has suffered a fracture on his left foot and for further assessment he is due to return home as soon as possible," South African team spokesman Michael Owen-Smith told reporters
"Since this kind of injury takes six to eight weeks to heal, Morkel's tour is over."
Morkel was given fitness tests before the ongoing first Test against Pakistan, which started Monday. His place was taken by fellow paceman Andre Nel.
Smith said no replacement has yet been announced for Morkel.
"The selectors will decide whether to send a replacement," he added.
The second Test starts in Lahore from October 8.
South Africa also play five one-day internationals on the tour, for which a squad will be announced later.

If you are looking for back-to-school gear like backpacks and lunchboxes, the best way to save is to buy quality sets with coupons and discounts. I like to spend a little more to on my gear and then have my kids use them for a few years. Some of the lower quality sets tend to rip, break or have zipper problems mid-year and then you will end up replacing them before the year is over or replacing them yearly. If you use your coupons, you can find durable backpacks and gear with coupons at Land's End, Pottery Barn Kids, eBags, Garnet Hill, LL Bean and more. Also, many stores are shipping backpacks to your doorstep for free.

I love that on the Land's End website you can see the backpacks modeled and it's easy enough to figure out what size you will need for school.
The Classmate backpacks boast reinforced bottoms to withstand boys that tend to be rough on their gear, plus reflective strips so that kids can be easily seen if they are walking home. Check out the sternum strap that helps to provide extra support and comfort, especially if your boys tend to carry heavy items. For girls, check out all of the cute, cute prints and if your girls are hard on their gear, then the classmate will fit the bill.

Being natural means that you will need to do research to realize why/how a product works on your hair, not just buy a product on the shelf. Become familiar with ingredients and know what your hair likes and dislikes.
The first 7 months post chop my hair would become a desert 2hrs after leaving the house .
It changed when I started using rinse out conditioners as my leave-in because products called leave ins just weren't cutting it .
The change was rinse out as leave in + sealing with coconut oil or any oil you have .
Is wetting your hair maybe every other day an option ? Nothing moisturizes better than water .
Sent from my Desire HD using CurlTalk App
I have to tell you that going natural is probably the biggest, most complicated research project I have ever undertaken. I agree with all the other posters. I would also add that build up on your hair sometimes prevents you from seeing how products affect your hair. Whenever I try a new product, I clarify first, and then use that product either alone, or with other products that I am familiar with. It's a process ofelimination to see what works and what doesnt. What kind of hair do you have? what type of products are you using? If you really can't take it any more, why not do a protective style and take a break? When it got frustrating for me I had to remember why I went natural in the first place. Also, I got frustrated when my hair didn't love (or downright HATED) products that others listed as their Holy Grails. I learned my hair is unique. I am still learning....you will have to develop patience to see this through....
You may have already done so, but a hair analysis could also be helpful.
For a good two years now nothing worked for me, but recently I found out I was low porosity so nothing was getting into my hair.
Along with what everyone else said, also learn your hair type. Not in terms of curl size, but the density, porosity, etc.
After almost 9 years, I'm learning in 2011 that my hair is porous. It drinks up everything I put near it and dries fast despite how much hair I have. I have to moisturize daily with water, a leave in and seal with a butter or oil. I cant skip a day. I especially have to care for the ends.
Yes, check those ingredients, the weather, etc.
Curious, what are you using now?
mybe you should try using a leave in, and sealng the hair w/ a good butter. when i started doing that, my hair was WAYYYYYYYYYYYY more moisturized and lasted llonger.now, i don't even need to do it every night. i can do a braidout like once a week and still have moisture and definition for the whole week.

Zoya removedor de esmalte, Nailpolish removedor, removedor, Nailpolish, removedor de esmalte de Zoya, Zoya,
Best nail polish remover ever. Does not dry out nails. Also spill proof bottle keeps remover from evaporating so fast. It last longer & doesn`t take much to remove polish.
Seriously? With this stuff, it took TWO cotton balls for 10 fingers and 10 toes... and the toes had glitter! AMAZING! And smells WONDERFUL! Left my fingers feeling soft and loved on... I am a fan for life! I`ll never use another remover. Thanks, Zoya!
This is a really good polish remover - and my absolute favorite part is the pump feature. This makes it so easy to get the right amount of remover on your cotton swab, and you don`t run the risk of spilling. The remover itself is better smelling than normal removers because it`s lavender. It works really well too!

Musharraf must stay in custody
April 20, 2013 9:59 AM
ISLAMABAD (AP) — A Pakistani judge today ordered the former military ruler Pervez Musharraf be held in custody for two more weeks, until the next hearing in a case related to his 2007 decision to sack and detain several judges.
The development is the latest act in the drama surrounding Musharraf that erupted earlier this week and climaxed with his arrest Friday after a speedy escape from another court hearing.
The former general, who seized power in a coup and ruled Pakistan for nearly a decade, has seen his fortunes plummet since he returned in March after four years in self-imposed exile.
The judge's ruling said that Musharraf would be given judicial remand, which means that he would be held in jail until the next hearing on May 4.

Facebook buys oculus for $2 Billion
View Single Post
March 28th, 2014, 13:34
GBG, that's not the view on things backers share. They don't see it as a success, but as a capitulation.
Backers didn't back the project just to get Oculus Rift. They've backed the project because they wanted to back a likable small independant company where getting a gadget prototype was just a bonus. They didn't want to give a single cent to Facebook. It was like helping david in the fight against goliath.
Even if they were promised a dozen of Oculus Rift prototypes, they wouldn't give money to Facebook. And all their money is now where? In Facebook.
wolfing, you're not wrong about the whole thing. Once you back the project it's a done deal. There is no contract between you and project owners that would say "we won't sell the company to facebook". The problem is many don't, didn't and can't understand this. Luckily, it happened in reality now which will definetly affect hardware projects as already mentioned by other posters. All those people who backed or symphatize with Oc. Rift backers will not back another hardware project soon.
Why am I saying "luckily"? Because who is stupid enough to donate money to Facebook? Okay, perhaps there is someone who thinks pouring a water into a sea is not stupid.

Halle Berry's bank account is about to get a little light. The Oscar winning actress has been ordered to pay $16-thousand a month to exGabriel Aubry for child support. That's not all.
According to the Associated Press, Berry will pay for their daughter's tuition and half her health care expenses. The former couple were in a nasty custody battle back in 2012, when a judge blocked the actress from moving with her daughter to France.
In another win for Aubry, Berry also has to fork over $115-thousand and $300-thousand to Aubry's attorneys to cover the costs of their custody dispute.

We told you yesterday that Sandra Bullock was the victim of a break-in on Sunday morning. Now we have a few more details on the incident, courtesy of Today.
Thirty-nine-year old Joshua Corbett broke into Sandra's house in the wee hours of Sunday morning. He was able to get past the security cameras and barbed wire to get into the house, where the Oscar winner and her four-year-old son, Louis, were sleeping.
Apparently Corbett was going through Sandra's house taking her personal items. And the Los Angeles Police say that the break-in wasn't a random act. Corbett – who was arrested on suspicion of burglary – allegedly obsessed with Bullock – even going so far as to keep a diary about the actress.
Bullock's spokesperson released a statement confirming the break-in. Thankfully, "She is unharmed and is fine."

Rob Lowe now is a sitcom star, having just left "Parks and Recreation." Rob Lowe in the late 80s early 90s? Party animal. In a new interview with "Cigar Aficionado" magazine, Lowe talks about getting sober and his former partying pals
The actor explains that when he wanted to get sober, he needed to find some new hobbies and ways to relate to others. "You're looking for new ways to bond, to be social, to be out amongst people," he said. "For me, in the early days, that meant playing golf and smoking cigars."
Being social also meant having his fair share of hard partying nights with some other a-listers. "He was always in the dead center of . . . the scene," Lowe says of Robert Downey Jr. Now he commutes from a safe distance and does it in doses . . . we see each other a bunch but . . . we're not the last ones to leave a party anymore." Lowe even has stories about Charlie Sheen, and somehow still has a short spot for the guy. "I love him, even though he hates sobriety," the actor says. "There's no funnier, smarter, more enjoyable raconteur than Charlie . . . I admire him living the life of his choosing." Someone's gotta love Charlie.

I know, I know. I'm the worst.
I haven't written. I've been in a hole of nine-to-five-ing. During the week I've been getting up to exercise at 6 am and not getting back home until almost 7 pm.
I've been cooking all along, but mostly after the sun is almost gone and there's no pretty light. The food itself hasn't been the cutest. It's been nourishing combinations of vegetables that don't necessarily look that great, but it's exactly what I need.
And eggs. There's been a lot of eggs consumed.
On the weekends, I've been cooking too – and even taking a few pictures of the process. But mentally I've just been too lazy to put words to paper/screen. That's real life.
I'm going to do better. I just need to find a new rhythm to my writing, cooking and photography that fits in with my real person job.
It's a work in progress, but I'll get there.
With the late summer and early fall weather we've gotten both butternut squash and eggplant in our vegetable delivery box for a few weeks in a row. I've cooked these two together in quite a few ways – with Moroccan spices in the slow cooker and roasted on a baking sheet. With quinoa, atop a bed of greens, with lashings of sriracha, and with a poached egg on top.
I would never necessarily think to put these two vegetables together, but they've been a surprising hit. They're meaty and filling, complex and satisfying – the butternut squash brings a sweetness and the eggplant, an earthiness.
I thought about calling this a pasta-less lasagna but I landed on Vegetable Bake. The layering aspect along with the ricotta, pesto and tomato sauce is totally reminiscent of lasagna, but calling a pasta-based dish pasta-less is just straight up inconsiderate.


text: Well thats about how I'm feeling right now. I just received word today that I've been let go from Tandy. After 3 years it seems my time there it up. Everyone knows the cost of gas going up and it effects retail, so the company has been taking hits in the past year and needs to cut down I guess. Only stupid thing is that they keep opening up new stores...??? I think it has to do with making the stock holders happy. Anyhow the TDH tandy account is still active and will always be. Being let go does not affect it. But just wanted you all to know.

Ruth A. Clark, 77, of Froid, died Tuesday, Nov. 6, 2012, at Trinity Hospital in Minot, N.D.
She was born July 18, 1935, at the family farm in rural Cherokee County, Kansas, the oldest child of Jacob and Opal Davidson. She graduated from McCune Rural High School in 1953 and earned a bachelor of science degree from McPherson College in 1957.
She was committed to a life of church and community service and as an advocate for peace. After college, she entered Brethren Volunteer Service, serving in Refugee Camp Friedland and in the Church of the Brethren teacher/student exchange office in Kassel, Germany.
After returning home, she was a youth fieldworker for the central region of the Church of the Brethren. She attended Bethany Theological Seminary in Chicago/Oak Brook, Ill., earning a masters in religious education in 1964. After a summer of working with the Grandview Church of the Brethren at Froid, she served as director of Christian education with the First Church of the Brethren in Roanoke, Va.
On July 10, 1965, she married Ralph Clark of Froid. To this union, two children were born.
Throughout her time in northeast Montana, she was active in the rural Grandview Church of the Brethren and later the Big Sky Church in Froid, serving as youth counselor, teacher, lay person, deaconess and on most church boards. She held leadership roles for the Brethren Women's Fellowship and the Big Sky Church Women. For several years, she served as a board member of the RMC's Institute for Peace Studies in Billings. She also served as an FHA chapter mother and Music Mothers' chairman at Medicine Lake High School, a 4-H leader for 15 years, a member of the Sheridan County 4-H Council and occasionally as a substitute teacher in the Medicine Lake and Froid schools.
In May 2009, she was recognized by the Northern Plains District of the Church of the Brethren for serving that district for more than 35 years in various roles, including several terms on the district board, the standing committee of the Church of the Brethren, and as a Heifer International representative. She also served two terms on the general board of the Church of the Brethren in Elgin, Ill.
She is survived by her husband, Ralph; a daughter, Kristi Jamison of Jefferson City, Mo.; a son, Russell Clark of Bozeman; seven grandchildren; three sisters, Donna Schmidt of Mission, Tex., Doris Crumpacker of McCune, Kansas, and Betsy Holland of Carthage, Mo.; and four brothers, Harvey Davidson of Hays, Kansas, Kenneth Davidson of Welda, Kansas, Carl Davidson and Tim Davidson of McCune, Kansas.
Funeral services were held Tuesday, Nov. 12. Pastors Neil Knudsen and Kenneth Davidson officiated at the service at Big Sky Church in Froid; interment was in Grandview Cemetery, east of Froid.

When the team needed a safe pick at No. 5 overall in the 2006 NFL Draft during a transitional period for the franchise, Hawk was the man.
When Nick Barnett went down in 2008 and the defense needed an inside linebacker to take his spot, Hawk moved over from outside linebacker and barely missed a beat.
And when general manager Ted Thompson needed some salary cap room to negotiate contracts with the Packers' megastars this off-season, Hawk was willing to work with the team on his own contract to make that happen.
As big-hitting inside linebacker Desmond Bishop leaves (he was released this week), the much less flashy Hawk is set to embark on his eighth training camp with the Packers. Only three other teammates – Aaron Rodgers, Jarrett Bush and Ryan Pickett – can lay claim to such longevity on the practice fields in Green Bay.
Staying relatively healthy – not only for game days, but practice as well – has been Hawk's saving grace in Green Bay. One could argue that Bishop and Barnett were better players at inside linebacker, but neither could stay on the field on a consistent basis quite like Hawk. For this Packers' coaching staff, Hawk's availability, if not his production, means everything.
Hawk has missed just two of a possible 122 games (including the playoffs) in his career. He has been remarkably durable at a position that demands it, and for that, he has become the Packers' resident ironman on defense.
Until a calf strain on Thanksgiving Day 2011 at Detroit forced him to the game day inactive list for the first (and only) time in his career, Hawk had run off a streak of 101 consecutive games played (97 starts) since being drafted by the Packers. Only Rodgers has been Hawk's equal as far as availability during that time frame. (Rodgers missed just one game, following a concussion, during the 2010 season.)
By contrast, the Packers' situation at the other inside linebacker spot has been much more unstable. Barnett, Hawk's teammate for five years in Green Bay, missed 24 games due to injury from 2006 through 2010. Wrist surgery during the Packers' Super Bowl season claimed the largest share of those games (16, including playoffs) for Barnett before he was released just as the following season's training camp began.
That offseason marked a changing of the guard at inside linebacker for the Packers. In a salary cap move, the Packers cut Hawk on March 2, 2011, only to re-sign him the following day to a re-structured deal. Bishop, who took over Barnett's spot in 2010, played well enough to earn the starting spot alongside Hawk. But Bishop played in just 14 of a possible 35 games over the next two seasons due to injuries. The most damning was a torn hamstring in the 2012 preseason opener that put him on injured reserve for the entire season.
D.J. Smith, another inside linebacker the Packers released this offseason, was also unable to stay in the lineup. After six starts taking over for Bishop in 2012, he tore his ACL on Oct. 14 at Houston and was placed on injured reserve, too.
What Hawk may lack in impact plays when compared to Barnett, Bishop and even Smith, he makes up for by being counted on each week. Said assistant head coach/inside linebackers coach Winston Moss of Hawk following the Packers' forgettable playoff loss at San Francisco last season, "I thought he was consistent, as always. I thought he was disciplined, as always. For the most part, he played all the run fits and handled his gap responsibilities well. I think you've got to understand that as a defense, from a discipline standpoint — there were struggles all around where we didn't get the production, the consistency, the discipline, the execution that we needed."
Hawk has been selfless, too. Though he has seen his snaps diminish in recent years as the defense has become more specialized, he has rarely complained. And in addition to re-signing in 2011 after being cut, he took a pay reduction this offseason in advance of the Packers extending monster contracts for Rodgers and linebacker Clay Matthews. According to Packer Report's story on March 18, Hawk's salary reduction cleared an additional $1.85 million under the cap for 2013 and also cut the total worth of his deal by $7.5 million over the final three years. (Hawk's contract expires after the 2015 season.)
That means for at least another three years, Hawk will likely be staying in green and gold – just as he always has.

Best Coffee Maker
In one out of two homes, you'll find a coffee maker. As half the US population drinks coffee, a coffee maker has chance of being the right gift for someone.
Let's look at the best coffee makers below.
What is the best coffee maker?
In general, coffee makers are divided into 4 categories, each with their very own pros and cons. First up is the percolator. While the percolator have been around for centuries and brews a strong cup of coffee, the coffee is often over extracted and bitter from the continuous heat.
The more popular type nowadays is the automatic drip coffee machine. This is a straightforward, no-nonsense coffee maker which you can program and brew coffee in a matter of minutes. You can even fill it up with hot water the night before, add your favorite coffee grinds and wake up to freshly brewed coffee the next morning. However, you'll need to keep replacing the filters which can be a hassle.
The third category would be the French press. The French press is a simple device that brews and filter your coffee in a single mug. You get to control your own brewing time and water temperature, and this in turn makes you the master of your coffee. Depending on the design of the model, the French press may produce strong, flavorful coffee or a muddy brew.
Last but not least, we have the vacuum coffee maker. This coffee maker is simple to use but entertaining to watch. The two variations of vacuum coffee makers are the Aeropress and the siphon. Both are transparent and you can watch the coffee brewing process.
So, which is the best type of coffee maker for you?
