Did you use my gift?!
Chocolate Peanut Butter Cupcakes Celebration
February always comes with a lot of festivities. Birthdays (including my own), Valentine's Day, President's Day, Leap Year (dude, that's an extra day in the month! What's not to celebrate about that?!)
I decided to bust out the baking pans for some special peoples in my life. Mainly…me.
I absolutely adore Chocolate Peanut Butter cupcakes up to the high heavens. The best I've tried has been the Peanut Butter mini cupcakes at Starbucks. These babies could make me bust into tears. Luckily, the birthday boy I was making these for also shared my love for peanut butter and chocolate and cupcakes.
I started with this recipe from Beantown Baker. In the end, because of ingredients and what not, I came up with something entirely of my own doing (which is not a bad thing at all).
A trip to Trader Joe's brought back the necessary supplies (except for confectioner's sugar. Did you know Trader Joe's only sells that during the holiday season? If February isn't the holiday season, I don't know what is!)
A major reason I wanted to bake was because I wanted to use these bad boys my dear friend Jessica got me for Christmas.
The cake mix was mished and mashed and poured into cupcake and cake pans.
Ingredients Cialis for frosting…
Kathleen's Peanut Butter Icing
1 cup confectioners' sugar
1 cup creamy peanut butter (I used crunchy 'cause I can)
5 tablespoons unsalted butter, at room temperature
3/4 teaspoon pure vanilla extract
1/4 teaspoon kosher salt
1/3 cup heavy cream
Place the confectioners' sugar, peanut butter, butter, vanilla, and salt in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Mix on medium-low speed until creamy, scraping down the bowl with a rubber spatula as you work. Add the cream and beat on high speed until the mixture is light and smooth.
Chocolate Ganache
3/4 cup semi-sweet chocolate3/4 cup bittersweet chocolate
1/3 cup heavy whipping cream
In saucepan bring whipping cream to boil over high heat. Pour hot whipping cream over chocolate and stir until chocolate melted.
After, I topped with the peanut butter frosting and even more mini peanut butter cups!
These things were so freaking good I gained 10 pounds after eating it 5 days in a row.
Ok, maybe not, maybe it just feelslike 10 pounds.
What's your favorite cupcake flavor? Maybe I'll try baking it next time!

DO A FOOD BLOG NOW. serious…legit! hahaha these look SOOOO good
Mohamad February 22, 2012 at 10:02 PM
Haha. I thought I was on Dorothy's blog for a min… nice post! I haven't read your blog for weeks now..
Mohamad February 22, 2012 at 10:08 PM
@Jessica I agree! There was something you did about food which but I can't remember what it was. Either way, I really liked reading it! or was it a video? .
ivana February 25, 2012 at 11:34 PM
Oh gawd my mouth is watering so bad. I really wanna eat one. Can I come over and make these with you ? So good , they were like super moist.
ivana February 25, 2012 at 11:35 PM
Great photos by the way. This entry came out quite nicely .

I have this problem. I have a need to share with the world my passions and interests and hope that they will also enjoy it. Hence, this blog is born- to showcase some of the things I'm most fascinated with. Most of the posts relate to the media as it relates to me. (Blame the early twenties neurosis of thinking the world revolves around you). (More..)

by Thomas Hargrove and Robin A. Beck, Jr.
During the 1980's, Slide Charles Hudson and his associates revived debate on the explorations of sixteenth century Spaniards Hernando de Soto and Juan Pardo in the interior Southeast. In 1994, new evidence emerged to provide strong support for what has come to be known as the Hudson Route. John Worth's discovery and translation of the 1584 Domingo de Leon account, together with the identification of sixteenth-century Spanish ceramics and hardware at the Berry site in Burke County, North Carolina Slide ,indicates that the course of the Hudson route through the Carolina Piedmont is accurate. Further, on the basis of documentary evidence and the utilitarian nature of the Berry assemblage, Worth, David Moore, and Robin Beck have identified this site as Joara (Soto's Xuala), an important polity visited by both the Soto and Pardo expeditions.
Juan Pardo's first expedition departed from Santa Elena, located near modern Charleston, South Carolina, on December 1, 1566, and likely arrived at Joara by early January, 1567. Pardo renamed this town after his native city in Spain, as both were "located at the foot of a range of mountains, surrounded by rivers." At Joara, Pardo states that he found a large number of Indians and caciques and made a fort where Boyano, his sergeant, and certain soldiers remained with their munitions of powder, matchcord, balls, and maize to eat. Fort San Juan de Joara became Pardo's primary outpost in the interior, and was occupied by a contigent of about 25 Spanish soldiers who lived at the fort for more than a year and a half before it was overrun, probably during the spring of 1568, by local Native Americans.
Slide Hudson et al. originally argued that Joara was located on the upper Catawba River, near the present town of Marion, North Carolina; Worth's translation of the Domingo de Leon account leaves little doubt that this interpretation is largely accurate. Archaeological discoveries made in the 1990's, however, strongly suggest that the Berry site, twenty-one miles east of Marion, is the probable location of Joara; investigations at the Berry site have revealed an impressive assemblage of sixteenth-century Spanish ceramics and hardware, including 13 sherds Slide from at least four different Olive Jars Slide, a sherd of Caparra Blue majolica Slide, which is diagnostic of the early contact period, from 1492 to 1600, and has also been recovered at the site of De Soto's first winter encampment in Florida, a sherd of gray earthenware Slide which, as yet, has only been recovered from the Berry site and Santa Elena, nails Slide, lead shot and sprue Slide, a buckle fragment, and a brass ball button.
In contrast to these utilitarian artifacts, only a few non-diagnostic glass Slide and brass Slide beads have been recovered from the site. While the beads and an iron knife Slide recovered from a burial can probably be classified as trade goods, Worth's examination of sixteenth- and seventeenth-century Spanish trade lists has yielded no evidence of items such as iron nails and Olive Jars ever being traded to Indians. Most of the sixteenth-century Spanish artifacts recovered from the Berry site are thus believed to be utilitarian debris associated with Fort San Juan, the earliest European fort constructed in the interior Southeast.
The Berry site is located on Upper Creek Slide, a tributary of the Catawba River, about eight miles north of Morganton in Burke County. The site is situated on the extreme northeast margin of a 200-acre alluvial bottomland formed by the confluence of Upper Creek and Irish Creek. The Berry site was first recorded in Cyrus Thomas's 1891 report of the BAE's Mound Explorations, where it is described as a "Mound on the west Bank of Upper Creek 8 miles north of Morganton (about 15 feet high and unexplored)." Both the mound and the surrounding site were regularly plowed, and in 1964 the mound itself was bulldozed to provide fill for a low-lying area west of the mound that was often subject to flooding. Today, the remaining mound is approximately 200 feet in diameter and is visible as a slight rise about two feet above the level of the field. The entire site covers at least five hectares (13 acres), as determined by Beck's systematic surface collection, and David Moore's excavations in 1986 revealed numerous intact features (roasting pits, burials, and postmolds) that had survived the plow and the bulldozer.
In June 1997 Slide , Tom Hargrove, Rob Beck, David Moore, Chris Rodning, and volunteers from the Burke County Historical Society conducted a magnetometer survey of a 0.9 acre section of the Berry site. A magnetometer designed for archaeological fieldwork detects certain kinds of cultural features as magnetic anomalies-patterned, localized distortions in the background magnetic field. Substances that produce distinctive magnetic anomalies include feromagnetic artifacts (iron, for example), or iron oxides such as hematite and magnetite. When soils, clays, or stones with some magnetic mineral content are subjected to intense heat (as in a prehistoric hearth, a burned wattle and daub structure, bricks, or a pottery kiln), they become strongly magnetic and stand out as anomalies. Since topsoils are usually more magnetic than subsoils, a pit dug into subsoil and later filled with topsoil may also appear as a positive magnetic anomaly. (NO SLIDE)
The magnetometer we used at the Berry site was a Geoscan FM 18 fluxate gradiometer. This configuration uses a pair of magnetometers in one instrument: a lower, measurement detector for sensing localized magnetic disturbances on a very small scale; and an upper, reference detector for keeping track of background magnetic changes. The magnetometer took readings every 25 cm along north-south transects spaced 50 cm apart within nine separate grid squares, each square measuring 20 X 20 meters. This sampling interval meant that each grid square was surveyed by 3,200 separate data points. The site had been planted in corn, but we were able to run the north-south transects between corn rows. The corn stalks sometimes obstructed smooth movement of the very finicky magnetometer, which is reflected in some roughness in the collected data. These data were processed with Geoplot 2.01 software.
The Berry site's natural setting Slide favors the use of a magnetometer. The far western Piedmont's soils fall into the Felsic Crystalline System, where soils are largely derived from igneous rock. The famous red color of North Carolina's Piedmont soils is due to the presence of iron, often in the form of hematite or iron oxides. The natural magnetic susceptibility of this soil permits the creation of artificially magnetized features, especially when the soil is exposed to intense heat. The soil of the Berry site is a well-drained alluvium derived from parent materials with some magnetic susceptibility. The relative lack of modern metal in the site (apart from shotgun shells and other minor items) also helped in the collection and processing of the data.
Focusing on the area of the site where most of the Spanish artifacts have been found Slide, the magnetometer recorded several strong, well-defined anomalies indicating house floors and other subsurface features, including large, burned structures that may represent buildings associated with Fort San Juan. If the Berry site includes the remains of Fort San Juan, then we might also expect the magnetometer to detect some of the metal tools with which the outpost was scantily supplied when it was overrun in the spring of 1568. The records of the Pardo expedition list several types of iron objects left at the fort that might appear as magnetic anomalies: mattocks, picks, chisels, axes, and wedges. Some late sixteenth century nails have already been recovered from the site, and an iron knife was recovered in a burial excavated by Moore in 1986. Most of the Spanish metal tools, however, would probably not have remained in the fort, but would have been salvaged by the people of Joara after the fort was overrun. Many of these items probably ended up scattered throughout Joara, and then throughout western North Carolina Slide, perhaps including some of the famous iron artifacts recovered from nearby sites in the Yadkin River valley. The magnetometer did pick up several isolated metal signals, but most of these have not been confirmed as sixteenth century artifacts. Volunteers from the Burke County Historical Society, using metal detectors, did recover a sixteenth century rose-headed nail and lead shot during the magnetometer survey.
This slide Slide shows an overall shade plot of the nine grid squares, covering about 0.9 acres. The magnetometer detected a large number of positive anomalies, which appear as darker areas on the shade plots and the dot-density plots. At least five of these anomalies have a size, shape, and magnetic response that led us to suspect large cultural features, such as house floors, large hearths, wattle and daub structures, or fortification walls. Many of the smaller, less-defined anomalies are also probably cultural features. After we completed the magnetometer survey, Beck Slide returned to ground truth anomalies 1, 2, and 3. Each of these three anomalies was tested using a split spoon auger, with individual soil cores taken every meter along grids set up over the respective anomaly.
This slide Slide shows Anomaly 1, a square anomaly with a solid, positive core and positive linear outliers. The anomaly measures 8 meters across, and in form and size Slide it has a striking resemblance to the footprints of late prehistoric Pisgah phases houses of the Appalachian Summit area; these outlying positives seem to be structure walls, and the interior core is possibly either a central hearth or roof and wall collapse. Auger testing of this anomaly, and each of the others, confirmed our suspicion that these large features were the signatures of burned structures. The soil cores Slide from these areas revealed thick lenses of burned debris below the plow zone-black charcoal, red fired clay, and burned wood; one core may have gone through a burned timber. This slide Slide shows the distribution of positive soil cores from the area associated with Anomaly 1, and like the magnetometer test results, indicates the presence of a burned rectangular building.
Anomaly 3 Slide appeared as a smaller, 4 meter wide, square anomaly, and like Anomaly 1 had strong linear and corner outliers surrounding a postive interior core. Again, this combination of features suggests the four walls of a building around a central hearth. Auger testing Slide of this anomaly, illustrated here, revealed a probable burned structure, rectangular in shape, and somewhat smaller than Anomaly 1.
Anomaly 2 Slide has a different magnetic signature than anomalies 1 and 3. Unlike these previous anomalies, Anomaly 2 lacks a postive interior core, and appears as a circular feature rather than having a rectangular shape; also, this anomaly is less well-defined, exhibiting a more diffuse magnetic signature. Auger testing of this anomaly revealed a probable burned structure Slide--these soil cores also revealed layers of burned wood and heavily fired red and orange soils--but the pattern, seen in this slide Slide, is much less regular than that of anomalies 1 and 3, again following closely to the magnetic signature. Although it is impossible to know for certain without more fieldwork, it is possible that Anomaly 2 represents a different kind of structure than that represented by Anomaly 1 and Anomaly 3, lacking a central hearth, having a circular shape, and having a more complex pattern of walls and/or features around the main walls of the building.
Anomaly 4 (SLIDE) is a squarish anomaly, not auger-tested, about four to five meters across, with a very strong, almost metallic positive response. The twin peaks, however, look like responses created by heavily baked clay features with highly magnetized peripheries and less magnetic centers. This anomal may have been a feature within the mound, or possibly a part of a feature that preceded the mound's construction.
Anomaly 5 (SLIDE) is a more amorphous, positive anomaly of respectable strength, indicating an area of about eight meters by four meters, but not well-defined. It may be part of a house floor or another large feature possibly disturbed by the bulldozing of the mound. (NO SLIDE)
In conclusion, the magnetometer survey and subsequent auger testing at the Berry site has been highly effective at detecting certain types of cultural features, especially features associated with episodes of burning. Other, non-magnetic features are certain to be found in the surveyed area. It is intriguing that so many structure-sized features with evidence of destruction by fire were identified in such a relatively small area, in particular the area where most of the Spanish artifacts have been recovered. It is tempting to speculate that the controlled surface collections, magnetometer survey, and auger testing have picked up evidence of Fort San Juan, with evidence of a conflagration that may have occurred in the spring of 1568 when the Spanish outposts were overrun by local Native Americans. As the following paper by Dave Moore and Chris Rodning will show, excavations this spring at the Berry site have confirmed these test results, and have revealed additional European artifacts in this area of the site. Excavations are planned for next year, as well as additional geophysical surveys. Future work at the Berry site promises to offer us a fascinating glimpse of Native American and Spanish interactions at the point of Contact between the Old and New Worlds.

Recently I got a new computer and upgraded to 13.10 - my old computer didn't have a video card that was good enough for Ubuntu 13, so I bought a new System76 with 13.10 preinstalled.
Generally, everything works quite well. But now my network servers (mail and Apache, especially) don't work. I can get ssh to work, so something is getting through, but as far as Apache is concerned, I can't even get anything like a failed attempt to show up in the error log, or the access log. Nothing. The computer appears to have no idea that anyone outside requested a service.
Incidentally, Apache does work on my local LAN - both from the computer running the server, and from a laptop using wifi. But nothing comes in from the outside.
I'm not at all convinced that Ubuntu is the problem, but I don't really have a better forum to post to.
So the things that sit between my LAN and the outside world are a Netgear WNR3500L router and a Motorola SB5101U Surfboard cable modem. Both appeared to be working fine prior to the changeover to the new computer, but I can't be sure that everything was good to the last minute.
The router is configurable. I have it set for port forwarding for ports 22, 80, 443, and 8080. Everything looks fine, and as I said above, ssh (port 22) works, but Apache appears to get stopped completely. Anyway, if I am doing something wrong there, I don't see it. All I have found in the configuration that might be relevant is the port forwarding/triggering and NAT filtering, which I have turned off. There are some other WAN-type settings, but I don't see where they would be a problem.
The cable modem does not appear to be configurable. Does anyone know how to configure one of these things? I didn't find anything on the Web.
My line provider/ISP swears up and down they haven't changed anything.
Any ideas? Other plcaes to look?

lots of talk about getting diybookscanners to noisebridge.

Daniel Reetz started diybookscanner.org a few years ago in LA, then moved up to SF/Oakland for work, and to build up diybookscanner.org. He's since moved on to other parts of the world, giving tours and workshops at hackerspaces on building more bookscanners. I've seen his bookscanner design in C-base Berlin.

I tried to contact Daniel 5 months ago to give a workshop at Noisebridge. He hasn't replied, but I haven't bugged him more than the one time, I would love to get him to visit us.

He worked with AMT and left a beautiful shopbotted' bookscanner (the same design on the front of http://diybookscanner.org ) there. I invite anyone serious about making a bookscanner to visit AMT in Oakland on Thursday night ( meeting night) to see their diy bookscanner (http://acemonstertoys.org/).

I intend to fork the latest diybookscaner and redisgn it to be lasercut out of 5mm plywood with T slot construction, which something I've become quite familiar with over the last year. I don't have a lot of time to devote to this, but I've been talking about it for about half a year and I'll need a bit of help with people checking over the design stage and working on the build iterations. Lets collaborate online and get a design going, join me

 I'll be looking for design files on diybookscanner.org and forking them to github soon, If you are interested in helping out, join #astralbridge on irc and ping froggytoad (or ftoad).

John Varvatos Menswear S/S12
Soft military influences were combined with a contemporary take on 60s elements in neutral colourings
- PhotographyMarco Coppola
- TextWilliam Oliver
Quite a typical collection for John Varvatos in a few ways, both through his softer military references including both a more contemporary take and a quite 60s feel. Soft colours were also seen again - neutrals and naturals, browns, beige, deep petrol blue – as were loose tailoring and draped fabrics. A silk trench with slightly oversized proportions in a pleasing turquoise colour summed it up well, as did the military inspired jackets. Added detailing included rope epilettes and shawl collars, but overall it was kept simple and refined. While the collection overall may have been reserved there were a number of features which drew the eye. Asymmetrical buttoning appeared on casual jackets, along with floral monochromatic prints on top of fine check. Knee length slim fitting cardigans in fine grey cable knit also added a new feel but maintained that softer and slightly feminine mood. Three piece, wide collar suits in light grey added a rock touch that referenced both the 50s rockabilly and the more recent incarnation. Leather jackets, albeit collarless and butter soft brown, appeared in a couple of looks, again adding a slight rock touch.

When Prison Break ended in 2009, Robert Knepper's character was sent back to the slammer in the series finale, an ending many fans saw fitting for the baddie T-Bag. Now, T-Bag might be brought back to a small screen near you. Prison Break producers Nick Santora and Matt Olmstead are in talks with Knepper to reprise his role as T-Bag in their new drama Breakout Kings. According to an article from EW, sources at 20th Century Fox have signed off on the crossover, so Knepper's deal is the only thing left to be finalized.
Breakout Kings is described as an "action-packed ensemble drama following an unconventional partnership between the U.S. Marshals' office and a group of convicts as they work to catch fugitives on the run." The show received a last-minute pickup by A&E after Fox turned it down for the season. Kings is set to premiere in early 2011.
Check out the show's official promo below! Let us know what you think. Looking forward to the show? Happy with this news? Have you missed your love to hate relationship with T-bag? Comment below or join us in our FORUMS.

Police said the action followed two incidents in which wardens were spat in the face. One of the attackers was a pedestrian, the other a cyclist.
All 65 wardens will be able to use the kits to collect samples of spittle which can be taken away for analysis.
Inspector David Legge, of Lothian and Borders Police, said the force would make full use of the technology.
"Even just the thought of being spat upon will sicken and repel most people and nobody should have to work with the fear of this happening to them," he went on.
'Powerful tool'
"We will not accept violence or the threat of such for carrying out their duties.
"People who choose to resort to physical means will be pursued and the powerful tool of DNA profiling used for that purpose.
"The public will by now, be aware of just what can be done in the DNA evidence arena and we intend to fully use it."
Train and bus staff in parts of Scotland have been issued with similar kits to increase the chances of catching their attackers.

A TODDLER has been diagnosed with a rare genetic condition which means he can't stop SMILING.
Little Elliot Eland suffers from Angelman syndrome - a chromosome disorder that causes severe learning difficulties - which has left him with a permanent grin on his face.
The two-year-old always appears happy and smiles and laughs as a result of the genetic condition, which affects fewer than 1,000 people in the UK.
Elliot's mum Gale, of Preston, Lancs, said: "When we feel down Elliot's laughter keeps us all going, you just have to look at him and his happiness takes over.
"At the end of the day when you have children you just want them to be happy, and Elliot always is.
"We always just thought he was a really happy baby, we never even considered it would be a symptom of something more serious.
"I don't understand why Elliot always laughs and smiles, but he always has a lovely big smile on his face.
"Sometimes I don't even think it's a result of the Angelman's - he doesn't have a care in the world, so why wouldn't he be happy?"

Amid whistles, raw shouts and tears, the foreman Florencio Avalos hugged his wife, Monica; his sobbing son, Bairon, 7, and the Chilean President, Sebastian Pinera.
Watch the live coverage of the miners' rescue here
He stepped from the capsule to an explosion of cheers and patriotic chanting - the first of 33 gold and copper miners, freed after more than two months in a tomb 700 metres below ground.
Hauled into the frigid desert air, his emergence was broadcast by state TV to a worldwide audience witnessing a triumph of human determination.
It was the start of the final but still perilous chapter in a 69-day drama that began on August 5, when an underground collapse at the mine sealed off exits.
The miners' location and fate were unknown for 17 days, until a drill probing for air pockets burrowed into a lunchroom where the men were waiting.
Mr Avalos, 31, was the first of the miners to ride up the shaft that rescuers hope will serve as the lifeline for all.
Wearing sunglasses to protect his eyes from above-ground lights, he squeezed into a specially fitted, bullet-shaped capsule only a shade smaller than the 71-centimetre diameter of the tunnel and was winched to the surface over 14 agonising minutes.
After his smiling, blinking emergence, miners continued to surface every 45 minutes. The rest are expected out by tonight.
Church bells tolled in jubilation across Chile as weeks of anticipation gave way to relief and joy. Bystanders cheered and clapped, then broke into a chant. ''Chi! Chi! Chi! Le! Le! Le!''
Families gathered at Camp Hope, the improvised settlement above the San Jose mine in the Atacama Desert, wept and embraced.
Mr Avalos was escorted into a medical triage centre for the first of a battery of tests.
Next up was Mario Sepulveda, 39, who shouted in exhilaration as he put souvenir rocks from the mine into the hands of his rescuers and President. ''I'm so happy!'' he yelled.
After 69 days, he embraced his wife and asked: ''How's the dog?''
Juan Illanes next, 52, a former soldier. He hugged his wife before being wheeled away in a camp bed. Then came Carlos Mamani, 23, the lone Bolivian among the miners. He gestured to a Chilean flag on his T-shirt and shouted, ''Thank you, Chile!''
It was the climax to a drama that has gripped Chile and the world since a borehole drilled into the mine on August 22, returned with a note from the men: ''The 33 of us in the shelter are well.''
Under the disciplined organisation of their shift leader, Luis Urzua, 54, the men had survived choking, blinding dust and rationed meagre stocks of tinned tuna and peaches into a near-starvation diet.
Supplies were funnelled down the boreholes but authorities said it could take four months to drill a rescue shaft to extract the men. They would not be out until Christmas. In the end, it took half that time: a race between three huge drills ended last Saturday when ''Plan B'' reached 622 metres.
By then Camp Hope had sprouted satellite dishes and rows of tents for the world's media.
A broiling desert sun had begun to set and shadows stretched across the winch as the capsule, dubbed Fenix 1, was lowered into the shaft.
Earlier, as the countdown neared, communications between the command centre and the miners were frenetic.
The men were calling topside every five minutes with requests that included camera extension cords and flasks of hot water for tea.
Despite sleeping pills, the men had a nervous last night. Many did not sleep until 5am. The first group of 15 selected for the ascent stopped eating at 4pm.
Just before midnight, Avalos slotted himself into the Fenix capsule for the nerve-racking first ascent.
Even before the first miner emerged, celebrity status beckoned as flags were sent down from fans requesting signatures. The men obliged and added drawings of jackhammers and phrases such as ''We will never abandon you''.
Video from hundreds of metres below ground showed extraordinary scenes of the miners greeting a visitor from the surface. A technician, Manuel Gonzalez, was lowered into the mine - proof the trip could be made.
Rescue workers drafted a pecking order for the men's ascent but were cautioned against premature celebration, noting only that the top of the shaft had been lined with metal tubing and that each trip required the capsule to negotiate bends in the crude tunnel.
''We made a promise to never surrender,'' the President said. ''And we kept it.''
As relatives huddled around television sets or bonfires waiting for details about when their loved ones were to be hoisted up, they said they were allowing themselves to feel an enormous sense of relief.
Ana Maria Sepulveda, a sister of the second miner to be rescued, was overjoyed. ''The day we have waited for so long has finally arrived,'' she said.
Rather than appearing feeble after his long imprisonment, her brother erupted from the rescue capsule like he had scored a winning goal in the World Cup.
First he hugged his wife, Elvira; then he hugged the President, three times; then he hugged anyone within reach, before leading a crowd of onlookers in a victory chant of ''Long live Chile!''
Mr Sepulveda, 40, said he was determined to continue his life as normal despite the media attention surrounding their ordeal. Speaking shortly after he was winched out of the mine he said: "I make a plea to the media to not treat us as like an artist or a show-business figure. I would like you to show me how I am: a miner.''
As the night wore on and all eyes remained on the spinning wheel that lowered and raised the rescue capsule, the operation appeared to be running smoothly.
Near the rescue site are four red-and-white portable structures that serve as the clinic where the miners receive first aid if needed.
Further up a steep incline, past enormous cranes and other equipment used in the effort, are half a dozen container-like structures where miners are reunited with their families.
While strapped in the metal capsule, the men wear an oxygen mask, compression socks to prevent blood clots and a belt that continually measures pulse, temperature and respiration. There is two-way communication inside, and a small video camera focused on the miner's face.
In the event of signs of panic - the biggest concern of rescuers - the extraction is sped up.
The miners are not sedated because they need to be alert in case something goes wrong. But a miner can become claustrophobic and do something that damages the capsule. Or the cable can get hung up. Or the rig that pulls the cable can overheat.
As each miner nears the surface, authorities said, a ''Genesis alarm'' was to sound - a wailing siren and flashing light - for a full minute to alert doctors.
Officials said that after the miners leave the clinic, they will be taken by helicopter or ambulance to a hospital in Copiapo for two days of observation.
The rescue effort was risky because no one had ever tried to extract miners from such depths, said Davitt McAteer, a former US Mine Safety and Health Administration director.
''You can be good and you can be lucky. And they've been good and lucky,'' Mr McAteer said. ''Knock on wood that this luck holds out for the next 33 hours.''

When Indian Land High School football star Rondreas Truesdale was choosing where to play college football, he had his share of choices.
That was until he made his official visit to Cleveland, Miss., and Delta State University.
"That was right for me," Truesdale said after signing with the NCAA Div. II Delta Statesmen. "It seemed like a good fit. The people of Cleveland, Miss., – coaches, players and citizens – were very welcoming when I visited there.
"It's an all-positive attitude – they expect to win and that's what I was looking for," Truesdale said. "They treated me well and they have a nice campus."
The Statesmen's football program, according to Indian Land High School head football coach and athletic director Mike Mayer, is regarded as a NCAA Div. II national power.
"Delta State is a top five Division II football school in the nation," he said.
The Statesmen, 11-3 last season, won their second straight Gulf South Conference championship.
In the last two seasons, the Statesmen are 22-7 with an appearance in the 2010 NCAA Division II National Championship game and a berth in the 2011 NCAA Div. II national semifinals.
Truesdale, a three-sport athlete at Indian Land, gives Delta State a big-play performer.
The Lancaster News/Carolina Gateway Player of the Year for the 2011 high school football season, Truesdale ran for 2,210 yards on 213 carries, a 9.95 average. He threw for 126 yards, connecting on 17 of 43 passes. The versatile Truesdale also had five catches for 110 yards and added 91 kickoff yards for a total of 2,447 yards.
He led the state in rushing and touchdowns with 37.
The Warriors went 7-4 and earned a home berth in the 2011 Class AA Upper State playoffs for the second straight season.
In his junior season, Truesdale ran for 1,573 yards and 20 touchdowns. He threw for 668 yards and six scores.
The All-Region IV-AA pick was also selected to the play in the 64th annual North-South All-Star game in Myrtle Beach. He was the fifth IL player ever chosen for the elite game, which draws the state's top senior players.
As slot receiver, which is where he expects to play in college, Truesdale helped the North roll to a 42-3 win over the South stars.
An all-region and all-state pick, Truesdale was the 2011 Warriors football MVP.
Truesdale also a star in track, wrestling
In track, Truesdale captured the Class AA 110 high hurdles state championship with a 14.68 effort last spring.
He compiled a 9-1 mark in the 110 high hurdles for the 2011 season.
Truesdale was the Class AA wrestling state runner-up at 160 after winning the Upper State crown to earn a bid to the state tournament. He lost his bid for the state crown, falling 3-2 in an overtime decision.
Truesdale finished the season with a 36-7 mat record for the Warriors.
"Rondreas may be one of the last three-sport athletes at Indian Land High School," Mayer said. "Rondreas is a great competitor. He wants to win and he's not afraid of hard work.
"He's been a good one for us," Mayer said. "He's received as much attention as any player since I've been here. Last spring, 19 different schools came in to see him and that's pretty impressive."
Truesdale said he was grateful for Mayer's support.
"Coach Mayer did all he could to help me and stay behind me to make sure this happened," Truesdale said. "I'm ready to go to Delta State and I feel the coaches have helped me prepare to go to the next level."

British Lawmakers Say Aye to Gay Marriage in Parliamentary Vote
Posted on Feb 5, 2013
Members of Britain's Parliament ruled in favor of the Marriage (Same Sex Couples) Bill on Tuesday, and in case the name of this particular piece of legislation doesn't make it clear, the vote of 400 ayes to 175 noes brings gay marriage ever closer to a state-sanctioned reality in the U.K.
The decision permits same-sex marriages in England and Wales, and though many Conservative MPs opposed the bill, that party's leader, Prime Minister David Cameron, is backing the measure and the impulse toward equality that is propelling it through his government.
"This is, yes, about equality," Cameron commented before the day's big vote. "But it is also about making our society stronger. I know there are strong views on both side of the argument—I accept that. But I think this is an important step forward for our country."
So, with France and now Britain making strong motions toward marriage equality, could the U.S. be far behind? Unfortunately, yes.

Warning on People Advertising Assistance
We have been hearing stories all around the country about people taking advantage of the immigrant community. They call themselves advocates, notarios or sometimes lawyers. They advertise their services to "help" young immigrants apply for deferred action under the new Obama policy and charge hundreds or thousands of dollars.
We are anticipating that the Deferred Action application process will be straightforward for the majority of applicants, but some will have issues as part of the process.
When the details of the application process are available in the coming weeks, we will provide more guidance on who will need a lawyer. Here is some advice you can follow for now:
What you should do
Make use of free or low-cost legal clinics from non-profit organizations, especially if you don't have a difficult case (no criminal history or any other issues that may cause your application to be denied. You can find one near you.
Contact your local immigrant youth organization or another immigrant advocacy organization in your community and ask them to refer you to a good lawyer.
Use the American Immigration Lawyers Association's directory to find a lawyer.
Make sure your lawyer is a member of her/his state's bar association before you use him/her (you can search for your state bar association membership directory online).
What you should NOT do
Don't use the services of anyone calling themselves a notario or an unlicensed lawyer.
Don't use the services of anyone promising to get you a green card as the result of the new Obama policy.
Don't use a lawyer's services just because they advertise somewhere or they are a friend of your family.
With caution and at your discretion, it may be appropriate to engage the services of an immigration attorney now to begin collecting/reviewing documentation that will support your application. If you engage an attorney, be sure s/he is licensed and someone you trust.
If you have become the victim of a scam by a lawyer or notario you should report it to federal or state consumer protection agencies. For more information you can visit http://www.stopnotariofraud.org.

Moscow (AFP) Mar 23, 2006
Moscow will release about 250 million rubles (nine million dollars) this year to improve ecological conditions at Russia's main nuclear waste plant, the atomic energy agency Rosatom said Wednesday. "If the program works well, we could increase the funding this year and double it or more the following year," a source at Rosatom told the Interfax news agency.
The funding for the Mayak plant in the Urals is expected to be used to reinforce a dam and install a purification system for contaminated water.
In November local authorities accused the plant of dumping contaminated water into the Techa River.
The management of the plant had said it could not prevent contaminated water from seeping into the river because it did not have the funding to repair the dam.
The Mayak nuclear complex in 1957 was the scene of the one of the biggest nuclear accidents in the former Soviet Union, when the release of contaminated effluent affected 260,000 people and forced the evacuation of several towns.
The plant, built in 1948, can treat up to 400 tonnes of nuclear waste a year.

Bankers and investment advisers are saying it is business as usual after the Treasurer announced changes to the Financial Claims Scheme, which protects deposits.
A permanent guarantee of up to $250,000 on deposits will operate from February 1 next year, replacing the guarantee cap of $1 million introduced as a temporary measure in 2008.
The guarantee is for $250,000 ''per person, per institution'', which means that depositors can have guaranteed deposits of up to $250,000 with a number of financial institutions. The scheme applies to Australian banks, building societies and credit unions, plus subsidiaries of foreign banks.
The government's decision to make the scheme permanent will be welcomed by investors, who continue to show a strong preference for bank deposits.
According to the most recent Westpac/Melbourne Institute index of consumer confidence, published earlier this month, 37.8 per cent of people believe bank deposits are the best place to put their savings.
The preference for bank accounts is at its highest level for 37 years - even surpassing the caution shown during the global financial crisis.
One of the criticisms of the scheme when it was introduced on a temporary basis during the GFC was that by excluding institutions that were not approved deposit-taking organisations regulated by the Australian Prudential Regulation Authority (APRA), it created uneven competitive conditions that distorted the retail investment market.
In 2008, small investors took their money out of products such as cash-management trusts, mortgage funds and property trusts and switched to term deposits and other accounts that were guaranteed.
Mortgage fund assets have fallen from $19 billion to $11 billion over the past four years, according to researcher Morningstar. Cash-management trust balances have fallen by a similar amount.
Many of the investment products that suffered outflows at the time are still struggling to recover. When the Financial Claims Scheme was under review earlier this year, the Financial Services Council, which represents the fund managers that suffered from the outflows, recommended that the guarantee be up to a maximum of only $50,000.
A director of the specialist fixed-interest broker Curve Securities, Andrew Murray, says the deposit guarantee still has a strong influence on investors, even though the government has not been required to use the guarantee since it was introduced.
''It is still a source of comfort for people,'' Murray says. ''That is especially true if they are thinking of putting money with an institution they don't know very well.''
Murray expects the investment trend that has prevailed since 2008 to continue - investors looking for a cash or fixed-interest return will gravitate towards guaranteed products.
Consumer group Choice has argued that the guarantee cap should have been left at $1 million.
It says any perception that the guarantee is being watered down may cause another ''flight to quality'', whereby only big financial institutions are seen as safe.
Peter Evers, the managing director of Australia's second-largest credit union, People's Choice, says he does not expect much change.
''The fact that small financial institutions did not have to call on the guarantee will give savers confidence,'' Evers says. ''We are comfortable with a $250,000 cap.''
Murray says credit unions and building societies may have to work a bit harder to maintain the level of deposits they have now. This could mean depositors will be offered attractive rates to stay with smaller institutions. There may be some repricing of deposit products before the change and depositors should watch out for good deals.
The government has made some other changes to the scheme. APRA will be able to meet the government's guarantee commitment by transferring deposits in a failed financial institution to a new institution. It will also have the power to ''look through'' pooled trust accounts to see who the beneficiaries are.
And the government will be able to activate a guarantee earlier. Under the current arrangement, the financial institution must be at the point of winding up.
Key points
- A permanent guarantee cap of $250,000 will apply from February 1, 2012. The guarantee is for $250,000 "per person, per institution".
- Some people may have to split their savings into different accounts with a number of financial institutions, although the government says the scheme will protect 99 per cent of Australian deposit accounts in full.
- All current deposits will continue to be guaranteed to $1 million until the new scheme comes into effect.
- Term deposits that existed on September 10, 2011 (the day before the Treasurer's announcement) will be covered up to $1 million until December 31, 2012, or until the deposit matures - whichever occurs sooner.
- For new term deposits after September 10, the $1 million cap will apply until February 1, 2012 and the new $250,00 cap from that date.
- In the case of joint accounts, each depositor enjoys an individual guarantee.
- Products covered include savings accounts, transaction accounts, at-call accounts, cash-management accounts, term deposits, cheque accounts, debit-card accounts, farm-management deposits, pensioner-deeming accounts, mortgage-offset accounts, trustee accounts, retirement-savings accounts and first-home saver accounts.
