Locals Love Angie's Restaurant in Logan, UT for Breakfast, Banana Split
Ask anybody in Utah's Cache Valley where to go for breakfast or for the best banana split, and you'll get the same answer every time. Angie's Restaurant sets the standard around here for food, friendly service and more.
"We're still old-fashioned in that we crack every single egg for each order," says Saboor Sahely, Angie's owner. No frozen eggs from a carton for his customers. "We make things from scratch, and we're proud of the fact that we only use the best ingredients. We don't cut corners on portions, either. And we treat you like a person, not a number," Sahely says. "We've got the most friendly staff in the world."
What's more, breakfast isn't the only meal cooking at Angie's. The restaurant has a full menu of delicious fare prepared to the owner's exacting standards. "We chop the potatoes and onions and vegetables at five in the morning to make our soup for the day," Sahely says. "People come here because of the quality of the food. We have some customers who eat three meals a day here. If they don't show up for a few days, we call to make sure they're okay."
Now that's service.
And save room for dessert – a lot of room. Angie's famous banana split, the Kitchen Sink, has just about everything in it and is big enough to serve a whole family. If an individual manages to polish off the mountains of ice cream, rivers of gooey toppings and loads of fresh bananas, he or she earns a bumper sticker that says, "I Cleaned the Sink at Angie's" – a real status symbol in these parts.
Sahely opened Angie's, named for his daughter, 25 years ago. The independent, family-owned restaurant, which serves more than 1,000 patrons daily, can be found on national travel publisher Magellan Press's list of restaurants Where the Locals Eat. "Angie's is really a piece of the valley," Sahely says. "It's true Americana."

Window vacuum leaks?
I have two or three windows in my home that are 23 years old. These would be the the double payne type that have a vacuum seal between the outer & inner paynes. I assume the vacuum seals have broken because depending on temperatures & weather condiitions I have either beads of moisture or cloudiness between the paynes. Is there anything I can do to remove the moisture & ugly cloudyness from between the paynes & somehow repair the vacuum seal. Or must I get in touch with the manufacturer & order new replacement windows. Or is it something a good window & glass shop can repair.
Thanks for the advice
Ayuh,.... Replacin' 'em is yer Only option...
There are companies that will come out and drill the IGU (insulated glass unit) to allow it to "breath" and vent to inside the home.
The idea is that this venting will allow the moisture to dry to the inside under normal conditions. I am not sure that investing the the repair of a 23 year old window is good math, but you can do it either that way or via a replacement/reglazed sash.

Samsung puts out some great handsets but we can all agree that their build quality doesn't always ooze high-end like HTC's does. The plastics they use allow their phones to be thin and light but don't give you that sense of sturdiness. Seeing Samsung use a brushed-metal backing on a device is nice little surprise, despite the fact that it will cause the Galaxy R to be slightly thicker and heavier than its other Galaxy family members.
We know that the Samsung Galaxy R has a dual-core processor running the show behind the scenes, but we do not know if it is the Exynos processor like the Galaxy SII or the Tegra 2 like so many other handsets use. On the back of the smartphone is a 5 megapixel camera while a 1.3 megapixel shooter perches itself on the front.
The Samsung Galaxy R will ship with Android 2.3 Gingerbread on-board. Samsung has also layered it with their latest version of the TouchWiz user interface. The phone should be available in late July, although pricing is yet to be announced. We've already got the Samsung Galaxy R for a preview which will be coming very soon, but in the meantime feel free to tell us what you think in the comments below.

We've done the "silly Microsoft product names" thing before, but in an internal discussion Larry Osterman upped the stakes with the following contender:
"Microsoft Windows Server Base Operating Systems Management Pack for Microsoft Operations Manager 2005"
One of the reasons I admire Larry is that when something like this annoys him, he immediately blogs it — including the fact that I trumped his suggestion with the following tongue-twister:
"Microsoft® WinFX™ Software Development Kit for Microsoft® Pre-Release Windows Operating System Code-Named "Longhorn", Beta 1 Web Setup"
This Microsoft product name weighs in at a whopping 134 characters, including two ®'s and one ™. A product name, in fact, that only a zombie branding manager could love! (All its friend — including Chris Sells and Mike Gunderloy — just call it the WinFX SDK)
Can anyone beat this? Is this really the longest Microsoft product name ever? And what's the longest (or silliest) Microsoft product name that you've had to suffer through?

Carl Zimmer wondered if scientists had tattoos of their science and as it turns out, many do! Check out this great collection of science tattoos. I have to admit I browsed through the whole 23 page collection, fascinated by the art of science and seeing, in some cases, the full colored beauty of people's passions. Oh, and you can even submit your own science inspired tattoo! Enjoy.
Yes, this site collection of science tattoos is awesome.

Deals: Roomkey.com checks in
By Terry Trucco
Is Room Key the hotel version of the Empire Strikes Back?
Last week Roomkey.com, a new hotel search engine, went live. But instead of a third-party consolidator like Expedia or Travelocity, Room key is operated by a consortium of big-gun hotel chains whose properties it handles exclusively.
The choices are impressive if you favor name-brand properties. Founding members include Choice Hotels International, Hilton Worldwide, Hyatt Hotels Corporation, Intercontinental Hotel Group, Marriott International and Wyndham Hotel Group. A day after the site went up, Best Western International joined the team.
And just like that, the Hotel Six (Plus One) took a deft swipe at the online travel agencies that help fill their rooms but cut into hotel profits. A search engine rather than a booking site, Room key shows you each hotel's availability and price, then sends you directly to the hotel's site, effectively sidestepping intermediaries.
At present, 23,000 hotel rooms are available, but Room key expects inventory to reach 80,000 rooms by the end of the year as more hotel groups come on board, according to HotelNewsNow.
Intrigued, we clicked onto Room key and took a quick test drive. First impression? It lives up to its mission to be "simple, fast and fun."
Since we're Overnight New York we typed in our fair city and set out to find a room for Saturday, January 28. Bingo. Up popped a whopping 86 possibilities in Manhattan and the outer boroughs in a wide band of prices. Agreeable prices (it's low season; you won't see these in May). A sampling:
Andaz Wall Street ($166), Comfort Inn Times Square ($125), Days Inn Bronx-Yankee Stadium ($139), Intercontinental New York Times Square ($259), Hilton New York ($199), Marriott Residence Inn Times Square ($199), the Waldorf=Astoria ($259), Windgate by Wyndham Manhattan Midtown ($153) and the Ritz–Carlton New York Central Park ($595).
Offerings are presented in one of three ways — as a list, a grid or on a map (your choice). Besides a star rating, each listing features the hotel's base price, price with tax, a photo, chain affiliation and location. If you see something you like, you click onto the name, and zip – you land on the hotel Web site, ready to book.
How do prices stack up? They were identical to those offered on Expedia with the exception of the Hilton New York, which was $199 on Room key and $164 on Expedia. Still, when we burrowed into the Hilton site, we found the $164 rate, albeit with a few strings attached.
Nice site, in other words. We'll be back.

Sounds like a neat idea and a good site, but maybe too late. We'll see if the hotels can do anything to put the Internet-booking genie back in their bottle. Expedia, Orbitz and Hotels.com are almost Google-style habits for hotel booking.
Comment by Cyrus — January 18, 2012 @ 7:23 pm
Excellent points, Cyrus. Stay tuned!
Great insight into Roomkey.com. I have broken down the site page by page and offer my analysis and insight on the iGroupAdvisor Hotel Consultants blog @ bit.ly/ysu3y3
Comment by Tom Costello — January 19, 2012 @ 7:47 pm
Tom —
I enjoyed your analysis of Room key on your site. I like the idea of a price guarantee from these places, especially since the Expedia price I found was lower than the Hilton price before I burrowed further into the Hilton site. Thanks for your comments.
It will be interesting to see if RoomKey can convince people that their website has benefits other than a juicy profit margin.
It seems like there is suddenly a bunch of hotel search engine growth and innovation. HipMunk are making a funky UI, and HotelSweep are going direct like RoomKey but using information extraction to cover all hotels not just partners.

text: SAN DIEGO, April 10, 2013 /PRNewswire/ -- Finkelstein & Krinsk LLP has filed a class action securities lawsuit in the United States District Court for the Northern District of Illinois on behalf of purchasers of Navistar International Corporation ("Navistar") (NYSE: NAV) common stock during the period of November 3, 2010 through August 1, 2012 (the "Class Period"). The complaint alleges that during the Class Period, defendants issued materially false and misleading statements concerning the Company's financial condition and business prospects. Prior to the Class Period, the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency ("EPA") had adopted new emission regulations on 2010 model trucks. Two primary engine technologies were advocated to meet the new standards. One was Exhaust Gas Recirculation ("EGR") and the other Selective Catalytic Reduction ("SCR"). Navistar "bet the ranch" on developing EGR technology while SCR technology, a proven alternative, was used by its competitors to meet the new standards. Navistar represented that its new EGR technology was operative and that superior engines using EGR were ready or imminent for sale. By the beginning of the Class Period, however, it was clear internally that the Company's strategy of achieving product superiority was not working. Despite $700 million spent on developing its EGR engine, the Company had not applied for certification of the EPA emissions standard 10 months after the EPA standards became effective. To conceal adverse facts from Navistar's investors and customers during the Class Period defendants repeatedly stated that Navistar had achieved its engineering advancement and had an EPA-compliant EGR engine ready for certification. As a result of defendants' false statements, the price of Navistar common stock traded at artificially inflated prices during the Class Period, reaching a high of $70.17 per share on April 26, 2011. In July 2012, Navistar admitted its failure to achieve an EPA-compliant EGR engine and announced it was adopting the same SCR technology of its competitors. On August 2, 2012, Navistar issued a press release announcing that it was withdrawing its full-year fiscal 2012 guidance. Further, the Company had received a formal letter of inquiry from the SEC involving an investigation of various accounting and disclosure matters. As a result of this news, the price of Navistar's common stock dropped from a closing price of $24.77 per share on August 1, 2012 to $21.44 per share on August 2, 2012, a decline of approximately 13% in one trading day. The complaint alleges that the true facts known by defendants but concealed from the investing public included: (a) Navistar's EGR process for achieving compliance with EPA standards was unsuccessful and Navistar would need to adopt an alternative plan and pay penalties to the EPA, incurring enormous costs; (b) Navistar knew it did not have the trucks ready to satisfy 2010 EPA standards though indicating otherwise; and (c) Navistar's filings with the SEC contained incomplete and misleading disclosures.

Filling up the Mac Toolbox
Wednesday, February 14, 2007 at 5:13PM
As I switch more of my computing life over to the Mac (it's now home to most of my e-mail accounts, my calendar, my task list, and some of my Web work, as well as the bulk of the Rails development I'm doing), I find myself accumulating bits and pieces of software. It's dangerous to draw any conclusion based on the small exposure to Macs that I have so far, but it seems to me that most of the Mac apps I've looked at are more visually polished and have more internal coherence (i.e, they do one thing and do it well) than most Windows apps that I'm familiar with, but they also tend to have less inherent functionality. On the whole I'm very satisfied with the Mac experience (especially on days like today, when my main Windows development box blue-screened five times).
Stereotypes and sweeping statements aside, it might interest some other Windows refugees to have a list of some of what I've found it reasonable to install so far:
Stereotypes and sweeping statements aside, it might interest some other Windows refugees to have a list of some of what I've found it reasonable to install so far:
- Adium (free) is a reasonable enough multi-network IM client. It's still a bit lacking in functionality compared to "Trillian"http://www.ceruleanstudios.com/ on Windows though.
- Chamonix (free) is a CHM file viewer. Not as pretty as Chmox but more functional.
- CSSEdit ($29.95) is a real find; this CSS Editor is way more functional than anything I've worked with on the Windows side.
- EasyTask Manager ($19.99) is my choice for task lists at the moment. They oversell the GTD-ness of the application, but they have one key feature I can't live without: recurring tasks.
- Firefox (free) remains my browser of choice. I can't imagine doing without its wealth of extensions in favor of anyone's native browser.
- Growl (free) is somehow far less annoying, perhaps because it's more consistently a standard, than any of the "toast" notification options on Windows.
- Navicat ($99) is doing for a MySQL GUI client for now. It's got a ways to go, but it's better than doing everything with the command line tools.
- NeoOffice (free) is so far handling my light word processing and spreadsheet requirements on the Mac. I'll probably have to revisit this as I move more office work over, but I have no intention of letting a Microsoft product on to this box.
- OmniOutliner Pro ($29.95 upgrade price) is taking care of my unstructured text and list needs. This is a category I've always kept some application or other busy in, so it was good to see lots of choices here on the Mac. This one clicked for me better than Yojimbo or Tinderbox though they're both intriguing as well.
- Pukka ($5) is a del.icio.us client. That's not a category of software I thought I needed, but it's very well done and useful.
- QuickSilver (free) has actually gotten me using a keyboard-driven program launcher, something none of the Windows entrants in the field ever done. I'd like to see it pick up some of the Web-driving goodness of DQSB on Windows (I know, I could program a lot of that in myself but I'm lazy).
- Shrook (free) will probably be my RSS reader when I move my feeds over. Everyone raves about the look of Newsfire but trying to read 400 feeds in that UI would drive me mad. NetNewsWire probably has the right functionality but I'm not going to subject myself to Newsgator's software registration system.
- TextMate (€39) is just as fabulous a prrogrammer's text editor as everyone says it is. It's obvious why people are trying to clone this for the PC.
- Twitterific (free) does absolutely nothing for my productivity but it's fun to watch all these random people wander by on my screen.

End of era as BBC bids good-bye to majestic home
By Maria Golovnina
LONDON (Reuters) - At noon London time on July 12, 2012, Britain will slip silently into a new era of radio history.
At the top of the hour, the BBC World Service - once the voice of the British empire - will transmit its last radio news bulletin from its imposing home, Bush House in central London.
For more than 70 years the art-deco building was the beating heart of the British Broadcasting Corporation's overseas service and a bastion of press freedom around the world.
From here King George V addressed the Empire in 1932, Charles de Gaulle defied the Nazis, and legions of emigres sent news in dozens of languages to the unmistakable introductory strains of Lilliburlero, its signature tune.
Setting off a wave of nostalgia, the BBC has decided to move the operation to a gleaming new office in London as part of its efforts to bring all of its broadcasting teams under one roof.
With a warren of meandering corridors, soaring halls and marble stairs, the majestic Bush House has already been mostly abandoned, with the last team of journalists due to leave officially on Thursday after the final bulletin.
"It's spooky. It does feel bereft," said Andrew Whitehead, a former South Asia correspondent who has worked for the BBC since 1981, his footsteps echoing in the building's hollow silence.
"Part of me feels sad. Bush House has meant something. You would say: 'I work at Bush House'. You don't say: 'I work at the BBC World Service'." Continued...

Scaffold workers rescued near top of New York skyscraper
NEW YORK (AP) — Two maintenance workers were left dangling from a collapsed scaffold near the top of a skyscraper for more than an hour on Wednesday before rescuers cut open windows to pull them inside to safety.
The men were stuck in wind gusts outside the 45th floor of the 600-foot-tall Hearst building in midtown Manhattan, just steps from Central Park.
Fire department officials said workers cut open the glass on the 44th floor to reach the men. The maintenance workers, helped by firefighters, moved slowly from the scaffolding, lowered using safety ropes attached to the 46-story building's roof.
Fire department Chief James Leonard said after the rescue it appeared the center motor of the scaffold's three motors may have failed.
The metal scaffold, which was hoisted onto the roof afterward, also appeared to have buckled in the middle, into an elongated V shape. The men were on either side, communicating with firefighters on the roof for about an hour and a half. Fire officials said they were working with the city Department of Buildings to determine if the scaffold buckled after the motor failed or if it was always that shape.
The men were working on the scaffold itself, fire officials said. The scaffold collapsed at about 2:40 p.m., and the men were rescued at 4:15 p.m.
The two workers, a 26-year-old Bronx man and a 49-year-old Brooklyn man, underwent medical evaluations once they were taken inside. Fire department paramedic Moses Nelson said the workers were fine and in good spirits.
"They were all smiles, thankfully," Nelson said. "No major injuries, no complaints."
Authorities said the smiling men thanked their rescuers and called home.
The Hearst Tower is the world headquarters of the Hearst Corp., a media and information company, and the first green high-rise office building in the city.
The accident is under investigation by the city Department of Buildings and the state Department of Labor.

Distribution Networks for PSG Signal Generators
Manufacturer's part number :
Description :
The Keysight Technologies U3035P distribution networks enable multiple Keysight Technologies PSG signal generators to operate in a phase locked and coherent mode at a common frequency. There may be a fixed phase difference between ports. The use of an internal or external baseband generator with the E8267D vector sources provides phase control and adjustment for each source. Option HCC is required for each signal source.
Quote and availability
- Various models available to operate from 2 up to 16 Keysight Technologies PSG signal generators in a phase locked and coherent mode at a common frequency
- Two modes of operation: Distribution Mode and Calibration Mode
- Upper frequency limit is determined by the frequency range option of the PSG, up to 67 GHz
- Some models include a built-in baseband clock source
- Distribution mode is the normal operating mode, where the local oscillator (LO) from one PSG (the "master") is amplified and distributed to the other PSG's in the system (the "slaves"). Using one common LO insures that all PSG's operate at exactly the same frequency and eliminates relative drift issues associated with the use of independent LO's in each individual signal generator.
- In calibration mode, the individual LO's from each PSG signal generator are routed back into each instrument. This allows normal calibration operation for each PSG without the need to disconnect the signal generator from the distribution network.
- Users can select Distribution Mode or Calibration Mode operation manually with a switch on the front panel or remotely over a 9 pin control interface.
- Various models of U3035P distribution networks are available to support up to 2, 4, 8, and 16 PSG's operating in a phase coherent manner. Some U3035P models also include an internal 400 MHz oscillator and distribution circuitry that acts as a common clock for the E8267D option 602 internal baseband generators. Precise timing control of the individual baseband generators is an essential element for providing accurate phase control of each PSG output.

Greetings from Northern Virginia. After having my eye on getting a WRX for a while, I finally picked up my '05 WRX Wagon two weeks ago and have not looked back. Well, actually, I'm 200 miles away from completing the break-in, so I haven't looked back while faithfully remaining under 4k rpm.
It's funny, now I can't wait for my wife to ask me "to pick something up from the store." I've never looked so forward to errands. I even eagerly anticipate commuting to and fro work (which is kind of retarded considering the traffic around here). That wagon never fails to put a smile on my face when I go around a tight turn.
And let's face it, everyone loves the hood scoop. Everyone!
I wanted to say thanks for all the great content - y'all have helped me straterigize oil change frequency, air filter upgrades, and detailing options. I'm probably staying basically stock for a while, since I'm new to tuning and mods. Still, I love reading about what everyone has done to their WRX's.
Number of times I've been asked if I got an STi: 3

Chlorella: Origins
Chlorella is a freshwater green alga. It can be classified as exceptional in that it contains a very high concentration of chlorophyll, which is extremely rare. Chlorella has been the subject of numerous search across the world, and was discovered when states sought a way of fighting malnutrition in the world or to combat the potential problem of future overpopulation, but the cost of its production has revealed itself to be too high. Several studies were conducted in the 1950s in the US to determine if Chlorella could meet the nutritional needs of a very large population. However, the studies were stopped when the American government realised that the cost of its production was too high. Chlorella is considered a nutrient of national interest in Japan.
Chlorella: Composition
Chlorella is extremely rich in nutrients. It contains proteins (58% of its weight), which is 40 times more than wheat, 18 amino acids, vitamins A, B, C, E. (It contains 10 times more vitamin A than cow liver). Chlorella is rich in essential fatty acids including Omega 3, it contains a large number of minerals: iron, calcium, magnesium, zinc, potassium, sulphur, manganese. What's more, Chlorella is exceptionally rich in chlorophyll (4 times more than Spirulina which is itself very rich in chlorophyll), Chlorophyll plaus a major role in detoxifying and oxygenating the body. Chlorophyll is also an excellent source of organic magnesium. It is finally constituted from CGF which plays the role of promoting cellular reproduction (healthy cells). Chlorella is thus an exceptional dietary supplement.
Chlorella: Dosage
Care should be taken not to exceed the recommended dosage, for Chlorella has a tendency to chelate heavy metals and toxins, which can lead to numerous side-effects. For a comparative reference, it's as if shaking a bottle of Coke and suddenly opening the lid. It is ths better to start with weak doses and to increase them very gradually. It is generally recommended to take 1-5g of Chlorella per day, 5g being a rather strong dose. Chlorella should be taken before meals, with a large glass of water or fruit juice.
Chlorella: Ultimate effects, benefits, virtues
Chlorella is particularly recommended for its purification of the body from all toxins, for detoxifying the organs and for reinforcing the immune system. Chlorella will chelate all drugs, toxins and heavy metals in the blood, body and organs. Its powerful effect is multiplied when it is combined with Spirulina, whose benefits complement Chlorella very well.
Chlorella: Side-effects, contraindications
Chlorella is safe to take, however it can lead to increased bowel movements and diarrhea. It is thus recommended to reduce dosage, then increase very gradually. On the other hand, if bowel movements are less frequent, dosage can be increased. The consumption of Chlorella is recommended for pregnant and nursing women (within the recommended dosage); Chlorella, along with Spirulina, is an excellent, nutritious alga during pregnancy. Other possible but rarer effects include headache, vertigo, shaking, pimples… All these effects are due to the fact that Chlorella detoxifies the body, which is contaminated in one way or another (pollutants, toxins, heavy metals…) Finally, avoid Chlorella if you are taking anticoagulants.
Chlorella: Opinions of experts
Although Chlorella is extremely rich in nutrients, experts remain divided and many criticise the perceived benefits of Chlorella. However, the plant has already been the subject of more than 500 scientific studies (largely originating in Japan, but also in European countries and Canada) which have clearly demonstrated the benefits of Chlorella in numerous ways (ulcers, tumors, healing, protection from disease…) It seems that states and industry are not favorably disposed towards Chlorella because it does not present a major economic stake for Western businesses.
Chlorella: More Information
Care should be taken to verify the place of production of Chlorella because, given that it stores the heavy metals and pollutants, it can easily be contaminated by them during its production. Chlorella cleans the planet just as it cleans our body, so it is necessary to have studies in labartories to verify that it is not contaminated. Consult your provider for information.
Chlorella: Combination with other plants
Chlorella combines very well with Spirulina (detox, purification, energy, diet, immunity) as a course of treatment, in rotation: 3 weeks Chlorella – 1 week rest – 3 weeks Spirulina. Or Spirulina+Chlorella together during 2-3 months with a break every 3 weeks. This treatment helps among others to detoxify the body, reenergize, reinforce the immune system and protect vital organs. Chlorella can also be combined with Ginseng (nervous fatigue, chronic fatigue, cholesterol, diabetes, libido), Rhodiola (cell oxygenation, endurance, nervous balance, stress), Maca (very rich plant, sport, libido), Burdock, Milk Thistle, as well as Turmeric (detox, help to prevent cancer, blood purification, cholesterol…) and finally Acerola or Goji Berry (very rich in vitamin C, antioxidants, anti-aging, protection from disease).

Welcome to a decor8 house call, a new addition to the decor8 website where readers and friends send in shots of their posh pads for our site. Our house calls are random so you never know when they'll pop up! But, when they do, you'll see the words [house call] in brackets next to the post title.
When I saw Lena's pillows and read the article, "25 Shockingly Simple Ways to Makeover Your Home", in the March 2006 issue of Glamour, I was all over it – her space totally spoke to me and I thought it would speak to all of you too. For one, the fab redo that the Glamour SWAT team did for Lena and Josh's Brooklyn vintage modern townhouse was just terrific. Glamour offered tips on where to find special items that won't throw you into the debt doghouse, which we're all interested in! It was the one month that I read Glamour and found something design related that I could relate too. It was nearly a Domino magazine moment!
If the painting above Lena's sofa looks familiar…I loved it so much when I saw the article that I instantly contacted the artist over the weekend, whom I featured earlier today (Elizabeth Schuppe). Then, I kept drooling over Lena's pillows, and so I featured those, too. Lena and I were in contact a few days ago and today, she sent some amazing photos of her apartment and of her amazing art collection, too! I just had to share them with all of you.
Thank you so much Lena and Josh for allowing decor8 into your most amazing space. Your place is fabulous!
Here's your visual candy for the week, design gang! You can also purchase Lena's ties, plates, and pillows on her

Sarah K and Liane Rossler are back again for more Supercycling! Today we see some super smart folded ideas- reusing discarded milk cartons, tetra paks and shoe boxes for all kinds of useful things like light fittings, chairs and spoons. [Possibly some good ideas for the bored fingers of kids on school holidays too??] – Jenny x
Left: Olive uses an old milk carton to make a spoon and Right: Yumi & Taka of Dear Plastic's fundraising Flower Hope Japan
Olive is a clever site from Japan that shares designs, food and ideas that help when living in disaster areas. Have a look at the tutorial that shows you how to use an old milk carton and make this lovely spoon.
Also from Japan are our lovely friends Yumi and Taka of Dear Plastic. Here they will show you how to use an old paper bag to make beautiful flowers of HOPE. Also have a look at their tutorials to see how to make silky soft paper from old milk cartons. We had lots of fun making it together at the Knitty Gritty & Loopy transformation workshops at Sydney Design.
At the top an excerpt from Hello Sandwich's Giftwrapping Zine and brilliant shoe box lampshades from Pierre Lota's video here
Our friend Hello Sandwich who you have seen here has also done some transformative magic turning paper bags into beautiful gift wrapping. It is not only the end result that looks so lovely, but the whole creative process of making is such fun.
With an old shoe box and a bit of karate, you could make yourself this lampshade or a book stand. Pierre Lota can show you how, along with lots of other design projects that you can do in less than a minute each. Watch here and get creating.
Super smart Never Wasted bag from Lee
Lee has come up with a clever 'Never Wasted' bag. When you have finished carrying your things, chop it up and turn it into lots of wonderful and useful things including a bookmark, game, wallet, calendar, and container.
Left: Snowjob chair by Emiliano Godoy and Right: origami light fitting by Ed Chew – both made from Tetra Paks!
Tetra Paks are very useful but difficult to recycle because they are made from three elements: cardboard, foil and plastic. They are extremely strong, so this origami light fitting by Ed Chew will last a lifetime. With this clever folding technique, you could keep adding the hexagon modules till you have something as big as a house or a moon!
If you'd like something to go with your Tetra Pak light, try this lovely folded and woven Snowjob chair by Emiliano Godoy made from post-industrial candy wrapping waste and post-consumer recycled paper.
More on Tetra Paks here.
Paperboat bath plug by Alberto Arza & Aymara Aravena
Spanish designer Luis Eslana directed a design workshop that addressed notions of saving things in our everyday life. Here, in 'Paperboat' by Alberto Arza & Aymara Aravena, the rubber ducky has been reinterpreted through origami and a recycled canvas advertising banner to make a tub stopper.

cELLAbration!:A TRIBUTE TO ELLA JENKINS, by various artists, Smithsonian-Folkways Recordings, $12, www.folkways.si.edu; preschoolers.
This is the second year "cELLAbration" is on my favorites list. The reason is simple: It showcases a wide variety of musical styles with passionate performances tucked into age-appropriate, classic songs for young children—all penned by Ella Jenkins. Jenkins, now 81, is an icon in children's music and a Chicago treasure. This CD (with stellar performances by Pete Seeger, Sweet Honey in the Rock and Tom Chapin, just to name a few) deserves to be in every home and preschool.
LULLABIES WITH MANDOLINS, by Simon Mayor and Hilary James, Acoustics Records, $13.95, www.elderly.com or (888) 473-5810; infants and toddlers.
This English duo is well known in the United Kingdom and their fabulous music is also available in the United States. This bedtime collection of traditional songs and classical tunes, skillfully played on an assortment of acoustic instruments, is the perfect remedy for bedtime restlessness. Whether it is a Vivaldi concerto or a beautiful rendition of a classic such as "Lavender's Blue," each song is exquisitely performed. With so many lullaby CDs on the market, it is refreshing to hear one so tastefully performed.
THANKS & GIVING: ALL YEAR LONG, by Marlo Thomas and friends, Atlantic Records/Kid Rhino, $17.95, www.stjude.org/thanksandgiving; ages 8-10.
Though the title may sound seasonal, you and your children will enjoy this CD all year long. Once again, Marlo Thomas has put together a star-studded marquee list of performers, including Sheryl Crow, Jimmy Buffett, James Earl Jones, Faith Hill, Robin Williams and others. The songs and stories get children (and their parents) to think about the important issues: How do I fit in? What is my purpose? What can I do to help this world? There is also a companion songbook and a portion of the sales benefit St. Jude Children's Research Hospital. This is another CD that should be in every family music library.
SHIP OF CHOCOLATE CHIPS, by Joel Frankel, Crunchy Records, $14.95, www.joelfrankel.com; ages 5-8.
It took Joel Frankel more than a year to record this CD, but it was worth the wait. Frankel, another longtime Chicago favorite, is regarded by many as one of the most gifted songwriters around. His unique sense of humor and attention to production details elevate this recording to the top of my list.
Kids like his zany approach to songs. And adults sense his sincerity—not that he's a serious chap, but they pick up on the fact that he is really committed to writing songs that stretch the imaginations of children. Frankel's previous CD, "JoJo's Barnyard Bash," is terrific, too.

Could You Control Your Computer With Just Your Brain?
Could you surf the internet, make a call to Mom, or send a text – using only your brain? Some experts are saying it could happen in the next six years.
They say you could have an electronic brain implant and be able to control those devices without a keyboard - and do it by 2020. Is that even possible? Jim Barry with the Consumer Electronics Association won't rule it out.
"It's not out of the realm of possibility," Barry says. "There's a widespread use of these kind of sensors in a lot of folks. Within the next six or seven years? That's seems like a bit of a stretch."
There are still some important questions to deal with.
"The privacy issues, the ethical issues," he explains. They change as the technology changes and we're going to have to continue to address them in the coming years."
But, the idea is not science fiction.

R.A. Dickey tells me that if he is perfectly honest, he prefers talking about books to talking about baseball. There have been few players in the game that have been so at ease in both conversations, and as he goes into the 2013 season with two published books under his belt, the ace pitcher is happy to shift from questions about his performance on the field to literature. Dickey sees an intimate relationship between sport and narrative; the things a player goes through over the course of a game, a season and a career are metaphors for the things one endures as a human being.
"Baseball gives you a very unique canvas to paint on," he says on the phone from Dunedin, Fla., where he's training with the Toronto Blue Jays before his much-anticipated opening day start at the Rogers Centre April 2. "It allows for story in a whole lot of different ways. Whether it's being on the mound in front of tens of thousands of people, feeling completely alone, and telling a story through that lens, or whether you're up at bat, or the length of the game and the pace of the game … I think baseball is a fantastic analogy, if you will, for the things that we struggle with in life. Things for me started to improve as a baseball player when I started to do work on my own life."
The work that Dickey has done on his life, and on his unique knuckleball pitch, has already become the stuff of legend. Acquired by the Blue Jays to much fanfare in December of last year, the 38-year old Cy Young award-winner (given annually to the best pitcher in each of the Majors' two leagues) is beloved by fans for both his slow rise to greatness and his gentleman scholar identity. A survivor of childhood sexual abuse, as a young man Dickey achieved his baseball dreams despite crippling adversity, only to have his MLB plans upended by the freak medical anomaly of being born without an ulnar collateral ligament. Grappling with demons and disappointments, Dickey reinvented himself and conquered a long road to actualizing his MLB dreams all over again. He's also a book-lover who studied literature at the University of Tennessee, and would have become an English teacher if those baseball dreams hadn't panned out. He believes in the sharing of story, his own and that of others, as a way to develop relationships, and that in life it is relationships that matter.
"I went to an all-boys school that was fairly affluent, and very academic, so we would delve into the classics," he says. "Anywhere from Shakespeare to Socrates. Having a philosophy background really helps you understand good writing, and so there was a lot of philosophy that we read, and I took Latin for a long a time. I was always drawn to the classics, whether it was Dickens, Steinbeck or Hemingway. When I got into college I started reading more contemporary literature, and studying Greek mythology, too."
Dickey now reads a few books a month, needing rich writing to fill the hours between training and games, and reading at night because he has difficulty sleeping. Among his favourites are coming of age stories, those that show character development and growth. Every year he brings an anthology to spring training, this year's pick being
The Best American Short Stories 2009
, edited by Alice Sebold. Dickey often rereads books he's enjoyed, like F. Scott Fitzgerald's
The Beautiful and the Damned
, calling professor friends back home to discuss them and "stay sharp." He tries to be intentional about making books a part of his life, and the lives of his children. "I believe in reading, and that's why I wear it. I think there's incredible merit in it. I think being able to have a conversation about literature can lead to all kinds of development for yourself. It makes you ask good questions, and develop insights about your own character."
Dickey's love of stories translates into his own writing, something he'd been doing most of his life. When he was in Grade 7, a teacher submitted a poem of his to a statewide contest, which he ended up winning. At the time he was struggling with the ramifications of abuse, and the success buoyed him: "From then on, I knew that I wanted to write. Unpacking literature and writing for me came very natural." By sharing his compelling life story in the memoir
Wherever I Wind Up: My Quest for Truth, Authenticity and the Perfect Knuckleball
(which comes out in paperback this month), he's dramatically shifted the tone of dialogue around baseball. This spring also sees a charming young adult adaptation —
Throwing Strikes
— filled with "R.A.'s tips for young pitchers," and a book that he believes was important for him to write.
"I certainly felt called, in a way, to write [my story] for an adult audience, but as I started down the road it became more evident by the day that I wanted to publish it in a way that it would relate to children and connect with them," he says. "Especially children who may have had a similar experience to my own. I know that when I was eight years old and all that mess happened to me, if I would have read a book like this, I may have had more of an inkling of where to go with that and what to do with that or how to feel about that."
During our discussion, every word Dickey says seems carefully chosen, every idea he presents seems profound. He invites me to develop theories with him, and when he lists off some of his favourite books he's eager to know what I think of them — the works of J.R.R. Tolkien and C.S. Lewis,
My Name Is Asher Lev
by Chaim Potok,
Cold Mountain
by Charles Frazier,
The Power of One
by Bryce Courtney, to name just a few. I'm struck not only by the amount of respect he commands, but also by the amount of respect he gives in return, as if he is much more interested in a dialogue between two people on equal footing than the narcissistic trappings and false personas of fame. "I can only tell you what I feel drawn to, and I feel drawn to people who are willing to tell the truth, willing to mess it up, willing to repent for what they mess up, and have the aptitude to learn from it."
When I tell him I think he's attracted a whole new crop of fans who once felt alienated by the aggression and toxicity of sports culture, he is humbled by the idea and thoughtfully cautious in his response.
"[Baseball is] a very tough place to be completely authentic and feel like you're going to be accepted," he says. "I think that when a person sees another person efforting to do that, in a place that that shouldn't be the case, I think there's an immediate connection … There are a lot of people that I know in baseball who desire to be authentic. They may not have the equipment to do it because they may not have unpacked what I've had to unpack."
Dickey's made it a public personal mission, however difficult, to be the most honest version of himself possible. We spend the bulk of our conversation talking about the challenging yet liberating process of writing through trauma, as we're what he refers to as "kindred spirits" in that regard. He could tell stories, and write them well, but it wasn't until he was 32 years old that he recognized writing his own experience with abuse was a valuable way to process its effects. He used a journal, did the real work necessary to overcome his past, and
Wherever I Wind Up
started to unfold. It took him more than three years, with some sections written when he would come home directly after a game. What came with its publication was profound connection to others — strangers, baseball fans and otherwise — with experiences similar to his own, a connection that he is both humbled by and grateful for. He doesn't see himself as a pioneer, but recognizes what he's given via his own vulnerability, and the real momentum of sharing his story.
"I'll never forget my first public book signing," he says. "I'll bet no less than 15 or 20 people in that line leaned across the table, people I'd never even seen before that day, to tell me they were abused at some point in their past, and I was the first person that they had ever told. Or that they were going to go home and tell their spouse. There's this interesting dichotomy going on. It makes you incredibly sad because it reminds you of your own wounds, but at the same time it makes you incredibly happy because here's a person who is taking one step closer to freedom. That was one of the things that helped me take the next step as a pitcher. Getting out from a life that had been really in the dark and in the shadows. It helped me to live openly and without shame. And that really did a lot for me on the mound."
The past few years have seen achievements for Dickey in his pursuit to ease the suffering of victims of sexual violence and exploitation. In early 2012, he climbed Mount Kilimanjaro to raise awareness and money for victims of human trafficking, and the recent off-season saw him taking his daughters to India to see first-hand how those funds were used to build a clinic where a brothel used to stand.
"I had somebody ask me the other day, 'How does it feel now that you've gotten to the next place?' I said to them, 'I think that's one of the great misunderstandings about people who have been sexually abused. Is that you go through your work, and you do the counselling, and you're diligent and you really truly try to unpack it. And then you get to this place where you never have to think about it again.' Well the truth is, there's not a day that goes by, even for a millisecond that I don't think about it. That's part of it. Knowing that you have to live with it. It's constant work."
Dickey certainly has no intention of stopping his relationship with literature — he has plans to write a novel, but in true writer form, is not yet ready to share the details. His ultimate secret to writing success? Again, like in much of his life, it's relationships.
"The thing that helped me write my own story is that I had people in my life — at a time when I felt like I didn't have anyone in my life — that loved me well, and allowed me to tell my story in a way that was very selfless on their part," he says. "Anything that I've done, whether it's on the field, or in literature, or in writing books, whatever you think that you see me as, has been the product of a lot of people who have poured into me. I am not a self-made man by any stretch of the imagination. That's really helped me, because I've spent most of my life being scared to death of relationships and trust."
On Tuesday night rejuvenated Toronto baseball fans will watch their newest starting pitcher take the mound as a Blue Jay. In my mind, after our conversation, what Dickey does there is irrelevant to the larger picture of who he is. More than anyone, he is keenly aware that moments make up a life, but do not define it.
"Ultimately the thing that helped me find some healing [was when] I learned that life was not about turning the page, or getting to the other side of something," he says. "It's about holding what is broken about the world and holding what is joyful about the world, and being able to take a step forward with both. That is living well in the moment. And that's what I've tried to make a discipline of."
Stacey May Fowles will publish a new novel, Infidelity, later this year. She is a Toronto Blue Jays season-ticket holder.

The lack of evidence for HGH as an effective performance enhancer is just as immaterial as its illegality.
The illegality, viciousness and moral horror of the blockade itself is simply taken for granted.
Universities are part of this equation because they are complicit, at an institutional level, with militarism and illegality.
No one had ever questioned the illegality of it, as she was over the age of consent at the time.
There were issues of hypocrisy, coverups, harassment, or illegality.
Mr. Das addressed the court on the illegality of the Act itself securing thereby the release of Dr. Mehta and others.
Ministerial circulars often have a remarkable character for illegality.
There was the usual amount of illegality being practised by the commoners; but the village constable had nothing to do with that.
It may be worth while to mention a few of these kinds of illegality.
The illegality of such a course had been ruled and decided in the case of Mr. Gavan Duffy in 1848.

Four people were killed last night after a helicopter crashed near a village church in thick fog.
Police raced to the scene in Gillingham near Beccles, Norfolk, after they were called at 7.30pm last night.
Officers threw a cordon round the scene in woodland near St Mary's Church as paramedics battled to save the victims.
The helicopter was on a private flight and was not a military aircraft.
It was believed the helicopter was a twin-engined Augusta Westland 139 and had just taken off heading for Northern Ireland.
One local said: "My neighbours heard a helicopter take off then next there was a loud bang."
Taxi driver Mark Murray, 22, from Beccles, said: "There is a large stately home nearby and you often see helicopters coming and going from there.
"When they have a game shoot the guests often all arrive in separate helicopters.
"We don't know if that is linked, but that's the only helicopter activity we see in this area."
The Air Accidents Investigation Branch has confirmed it will be sending a team to investigate the tragedy.
A spokeswoman for Norfolk Police said: "It is a civilian helicopter and there were four occupants on board who are all thought to have died in the crash."
Two ambulance officers, three ambulances, two doctors and one rapid response car attended the scene.
A spokeswoman for East of England Ambulance Service said: "Sadly, it is believed that four people in the helicopter are believed to have died in the crash.
"Ambulance resources have now been stood down from the scene. Our thoughts are with the family and friends of those who have lost their lives tonight."
It was thought that fog could have played a part in last night's crash.
Helen Roberts, a forecaster at the Met Office, confirmed that large parts of East Anglia had been hit by mist last night.
She said: "There has certainly been some fog around south Norfolk, and the Norwich area has been in fog.
"There has been widespread mist around East Anglia and low visibility quite widely across East Anglia. Mist means low visibility, and it has been misty quite widely throughout the evening."
Roland Bronk, owner of The Swan House inn and restaurant in Beccles also said it was "very foggy" in the area.
The Augusta Westland 139 is the same model that crashed into the 51-storey St George Wharf tower block in Vauxhall, south west London in January last year, killing two.
The helicopter featured in the 2012 Olympics Opening Ceremony when a stuntman playing the Queen parachuting into the Olympic stadium in a James Bond-style film.
The site is 45 miles from the spot where four crew members died when a US military helicopter crashed in Norfolk on a training mission in a nature reserve in Cley-next-the-Sea, Norfolk.
In January, a Pave Hawk from RAF Lakenheath was taking part in a low-flying training exercise when it came down in a nature reserve in Cley-next-the-Sea in the county.
All four American crew members were killed in the crash. The aircraft was carrying munitions at the time of the crash and police subsequently cordoned off the area at they investigated the nature of the weaponry, which was later found to be bullets.

Healthy Food Swaps for Picky Eaters (Page 3)
2. Key Nutrient: Calcium
How to Get It: Hate milk? Eat tofu.
Bone-building calcium is richly packed into dairy foods (1 cup of milk delivers 300 mg, while a cup of yogurt provides 450 mg), but you don't have to drink 3 cups of milk a day to get your daily dose (most women need 1,000 mg/day; those over 50 need 1,200 mg). Tofu prepared with calcium sulfate is a great alternative to milk (1/2 cup packs in 253 mg). Other good sources include broccoli and kale (60-94 mg per cup) and canned sardines (make sure to eat the bones to get about 200 mg per 3-oz. serving).
