Wilmington WISE Wilmington WISE Application
WISE is a certificate program of Wilmington College
The Wilmington Institute for Stewardship & Engagement (WISE) offers a stand-alone co-curricular leadership program open to majors from all disciplines. It combines academics + applied work and internship opportunities, bundled into 11 total semester hours.
First-year and transfer students with a minimum GPA of 2.75 may apply for acceptance into the WISE program. Students admitted into the program will be placed into Work Program positions on campus for the first semester (fall) prior to commencing coursework and will continue in Work Program positions for a minimum of 4 semesters.
Once students complete a semester within the Work Program, they will enroll in the WS131: Intro to Leadership course (2 hr). This course is designed to offer foundational studies in leadership from a multi-disciplinary perspective, taught by panel.
After completion of WS131, WISE participants will enroll in three 1-hour topics courses (WS350), from lobbying in Washington D.C., to mediation training, to managing organizational change. The topics vary each semester and are taught by actual leaders in the field.
Experience yields confidence, and that's a characteristic of effective leaders. WISE participants are required to complete 4 hours of internship experience that relate to applied leadership and/or sustainable change management during their junior or senior year. Multiple internships may be combined for a minimum of 4 semester hours.
A final senior capstone course (2 hr) provides students with opportunity for reflection and preparation of their co-curricular portfolios. Successful completion of the capstone will result in the awarding of a Certificate in Applied Leadership and Sustainable Change, also noted on official transcripts.

As you may or may not know, the ever clever, stylish and talented Zoe of So Zo… has recently got married. While she and Mr So Zo are off honeymooning in NYC she has a bunch of guest posts lined up. (Sheesh, to be so organized ahead of your wedding!) Anyhow today is my turn (How chuffed was I to be asked? Very!)
So if you fancy finding out how I managed to get this size 8 vintage blouse to fit my size 12 bod, then hop on over….
You won't be expecting this one, I promise, lol!
BTW, if you haven't already left your thoughts on this post, then if you have the time, please do! I need as much feedback as possible!

HI ! I've just read your guest post on So Zo… and loved it, so I thought I'd come take a look at your blog – and I am officially hooked. LOVING your stuff. Unfortunately, I'll get nothing done at work today. Oct well.
I've just started dressmaking in the last few months and I'm sort-of trying to teach myself. But it's too hard, and I can see myself getting sick of it before too long. Do you have any tips for a beginner?
October 7, 2012
Eilidhbelle! Thanks so much for saying such nice things about my blog. You are now officially my best friend, lol!
My advice would be to try and detatch yourself from the outcome of your sewing projects a bit. Expect a few fails, but look at the process of sewing them in the context of what you've learnt and done better; rather than what you bodged. Every sewer you see, on every sewing blog, bodges. Big time. Frequently. You just don't always get to see it. So don't fall into the trap of thinking they're all perfect and that you'll never reach that standard. You will; and much quicker than you'd think!
I'd start off with some really simple projects with very few details. Colette patterns Sorbetto top is a great one. Then as you get a bit confident; move onto something with sleeves/collars etc. Skirts are also a really easy starting point. Check out charity shops or ebay for cheap dressmaking patterns; and use old sheets/duvets to practice on so you don't have to worry about ruining you expensive shop bought fabric.
Refashioning is a good starting point too. Start with something simple like shortening a skirts or narrowing a pair of jeans or something like that.
Most importantly, don't get disheartened! If you ever have questions ask someone here in the blogging community or look up a tutorial on You Tube 🙂
GOOD LUCK and WELCOME!

Portia, I stopped by So Zo's blog on the way to your blog and left a long-winded comment. Love your remake!
Eilidhbelle, there are a lot of terrific sewing blogs on the internet, as well as YouTube videos. The blogs range from home decor (sometimes easier than garment sewing) to garments to quilting–and everything in between!
Depending on your skill level, you might want to try some "flat" projects first, just to learn to operate your machine comfortably. Pillows (or covers), aprons (if you or anyone you know wears them), and similar items are easier at the beginning because there is less fitting of 2-D fabric to a 3-D body. And you'll still have something you can use!
Sewing is a lot like painting a house: the more prep you do, the better the finished product. Sewing garments begins with fitting the pattern (assuming you'll be using a commercial pattern) to your body. Patterns are like RTW (ready-to-wear) clothing: they have measurements that may or may not be similar to yours. There are books available (check your local library) on making a basic sloper (bodice fitted to your measurements) and other fitting adjustments, as well as tons of information on the internet. If you're lucky, your measurements will be reasonably similar to those of the pattern and you'll just need to adjust the pattern to suit your body and style preferences. If you're like me, you'll spend a fair amount of time trying to fit neckline/shoulders as closely as possible, then adjusting everything else! *eek*
Garment sewing–particularly in the beginning–is a process. You're constantly learning about your machine and techniques that will allow you to produce the most professional looking garment possible.
Good luck!

Great advice Taja 🙂

|here's our Professor Pretty Naomi
so day two we learn the technique fist, we learn about brow map-ing and how to make a perfect arch for every face shape! and we also learn that if you consume, using face product or doing any machine peeling, you cannot do brow wax, because your skin is fragile and if you do this service, you'll got a skin peel which is so painful for you!
and then i was thinking how easy to do a brow map, but the hard part is that you have to connect each point and make a perfect arch and trust me it's hard! i need about 45- 60 minutes just to finish the brow maping at first day! it is hard to balance the brow, but once you get the hang of it, it was little bit easier for you,
|before we do a brow wax service we'll have to prepare out SMA , we have to prepare the spatula, hair clip, disposable mascara wand, Twizzer and scissors. all the clean product must put on the right and all the dirty product must put on the left!
at Thursday we have to handle a customer/ model we have to re shape their brow to be perfect from YUCK to WOW! at Friday i have more time to take picture and mingle with other! and i thank God that all my models are nice and very understand my condition.
so here;s the Brow Service at Benefit B spot today! today our outfit are pijamas! haha
and here's me on action yesterday thank you Meylisa Agustina from pandapavillon for the picture!!
and here's my Brow Work today, she is actually my 1st model for today, and turns out i can't wax her eye brow because she consuming or using doctor skin care for her agne, but i manage to reshape her virgin brow to the "Benefit Brow", and she liked it so much! and i was so happy, i still am that i can make such a good brow and made my model love it so much!!
Yuck and WOW
here's our Manager or my boss she was the model for recap season yesterday, and if you see clossely there;s some line over the brow, that's we called brow point, where you should start your brow, where you arch is and where you need to stop the brow.
so good news, on 13 April *techneqly today, we will have a little parade at Plaza Indonesia around 1 o'clock, we'll go around as give you a pink envelope there a secret surprise for you and we have game also, so come and meet Gabby and other Beneteam! we'll be at Plaza Indonesia until around 4 o'clock!!

Bruins Beat: Series a fresh sheet of ice
B's eye better play in best-of-3
Credit: Patrick Whittemore
The Bruins earned themselves a do-over, in a manner of speaking, with Thursday's 1-0 overtime victory over the Canadiens in Montreal. A chance to start from square one, in a way, in a series that's no longer a best-of-seven, but a best-of-three.
For many key B's players, the fresh start is much needed.

Pale Social
Listen to this poem, set to music, performed by tony, as you read. (opens a new tab)
I remember sitting on the stools
by the window, painted window.
I chewed a salad, onion rings; you, french fries
sucked down a coke.
The sky was watercolors and ash. Mottled
grey and dark and light.
When there is nothing left to say,
we can always talk about the weather.
And the sky is always there.
Always moving, always changing,
smiling, frowning, crying. Screaming.
Always the same sky.
We lit up cigarettes
whose grey breath falls upwards
drips into the liquid sky.
We watch people come and go
back and forth and to and fro…
Smoke circling our heads
twisting and falling and twirling
and bleeding into the same sky.
I look into the round, dark part of your eyes.
Reflections of the twisted, circling smoke,
and the people passing by,
coming once, returning, circling back.
Staring blankly or distracted
walking in circles.
Circling like smoke and twisting
the beautiful ones
the hungry and unsatisfied
the lonely…
A world that spins
A world that revolves
A world that falls apart
is no world at all.

Andersonville is one of Chicago's northern neighborhoods. Originally settled by Swedish immigrants, the community retains a Nordic feel and several Swedish bakeries continue to serve traditional delicacies alongside some of the trendiest new restaurants in town.
Andersonville is a very popular community with a lovely, independently-owned, business district. This Chicago neighborhood runs about six blocks north and south along Clark Street from Lawrence to almost Hollywood.
Sunday brunch is like a holiday in Andersonville with the streets teeming with folks lined up for their favorites, be it Swedish or American or even Adriatic. If you happen to miss brunch, delve into an order of mussels from the famed, Belgian-inspired tavern nearby.
In addition to the weekly Brunch Holiday, Andersonville hosts a number of festivals year round from a Wine Walk to Midsommarfest to the St Lucia Festival of Lights. There's ALWAYS something going on in Andersonville.
Housing in Andersonville is a mix of old stone and brick two, three, and six level flats, and a few newer mid-rise buildings. Some older homes have been torn down to make way for modern replacements, while others have been lovingly rehabbed.
Prices are fair for what you get, and inventory is often tight in this popular area nestled between Lake Michigan and the Ravenswood Metra line. A new station "coming soon" at Peterson will be a boon for Andersonville making the trip downtown even easier for area residents.

Now Trump says Isil claim was 'sarcasm'
After days of alleging repeatedly that President Barack Obama had literally founded the Isil terror group, Donald Trump has abruptly shifted tone and insisted that his widely debunked claim had merely been sarcastic.
Trump, in an early-morning post on Twitter, blamed CNN for reporting "so seriously" that he had called Obama and Democrat Hillary Clinton the extremist group's founder and most valuable player. He added, in all capital letters: "THEY DON'T GET SARCASM?"
Only hours before, the billionaire businessman had restated the allegation with no mention of sarcasm, telling rally- goers in Kissimmee, Florida: "I've been saying that Barack Obama is the founder."
It is a claim that Trump repeated at least a dozen times in three cities since debuting the attack line on Wednesday during a rally outside Fort Lauderdale.
In fact, Trump had refused to clarify that he was being rhetorical or sarcastic when asked about the remark during interviews. On Tuesday, when conservative radio host Hugh Hewitt tried to steer Trump towards explaining that he really meant Obama's middle-eastern policies had created conditions that Isil exploited, Trump wanted none of it.
"No, I meant he's the founder of Isil. I do," Trump said. Told that Obama was trying to defeat the militants, Trump added: "I don't care. He was the founder."
The controversy has dogged the campaign in a week in which Trump has been trying to highlight his economic proposals. He is encountering worrying signs as his campaign moves towards the November election. Clinton's lead in the polls has widened, while a growing number of his fellow Republicans have declared that they won't support their own party's nominee.
Clinton is looking to take advantage by expanding into traditionally Republican states, seeking a sweeping victory.
It wasn't immediately clear why Trump altered course and said the whole notion was sarcastic. But the allegation had elicited fresh concerns about Trump's relationship with the truth and his suitability to be commander-in-chief.
Yet even as he worked to quell one campaign controversy, Trump appeared to spark another on Wednesday when said he was "fine" with trying Americans suspected of terrorism in military tribunals at the Guantanamo Bay detention centre.
Asked specifically about US citizens, Trump told the 'Miami Herald' that he didn't like that Obama and others wanted to try them in traditional courts.
"I would say they could be tried there," Trump said, referring to Guantanamo Bay, adding: "That'll be fine."
Federal law generally prohibits US citizens from being prosecuted in military tribunals.
Trump has blamed Obama's decision to pull US forces from Iraq in 2011 for destabilising the Middle East and creating a situation in which Isil could thrive.
He added Clinton to the mix by noting her initial support for the Iraq War and her ties to Obama's policies as his first-term secretary of state.
However, Trump had previously said that he wanted US troops out years before Obama actually withdrew them.
The founder of Isil was Abu Musab al-Zarqawi, the head of al-Qa'ida in Iraq, who was killed in a US airstrike in 2006.
The group began as Iraq's local affiliate of al-Qa'ida, the group that attacked the US on September 11, 2001.
Republican concerns about Trump are compelling enough that dozens of party figures were gathering signatures for a letter, urging the party's chairman to stop helping Trump and focus on protecting vulnerable House and Senate candidates, according to a draft obtained by the Associated Press. Trump said he wasn't worried that Republicans would cut him off and threatened to stop fundraising for the party if they do.
Trump's campaign planned to sit down with RNC officials in Orlando on Friday. But both Republican Party officials and Trump's campaign said the meeting was focused on campaign strategy in battleground states like Florida, and not tensions between the campaign and the party.
The officials weren't authorised to comment publicly and requested anonymity.

Dec 5 (Reuters) - Chevron Corp added $15 billion to the cost of the Gorgon liquefied natural gas (LNG) export complex, as the U.S. oil company's largest single development joins a growing list of Australian LNG projects to run over budget.
The new $52 billion estimate for Gorgon, now 55 percent complete, came on Wednesday alongside Chevron's $36.7 billion overall 2013 budget for capital and exploratory spending. That compares with a 2012 budget of $32.7 billion, and is just shy of the $37 billion annual budget of far-larger Exxon Mobil Corp .
Like other Australian LNG projects, Gorgon's inflated cost is largely due to labor shortages, logistics challenges and the strength of the local currency. Half of the six other LNG plants being built in the country have sustained cost increases averaging more than 20 percent.

A railgun is an electromagnetic projectile launcher based on similar principles to the homopolar motor. A railgun uses a pair of parallel conductors, or rails, along which a sliding armature is accelerated by the electromagnetic effects of a current that flows down one rail, into the armature and then back along the other rail.
Railguns are being researched as a weapon that would use neither explosives nor propellant, but rather rely on electromagnetic forces to achieve a very high kinetic energy of a projectile. While explosive-powered military guns cannot readily achieve a muzzle velocity of more than about 2 km/s, railguns can readily exceed 3 km/s, and thus far exceed conventionally delivered munitions in range and destructive force. The absence of explosive propellants or warheads to store and handle, as well as the low cost of projectiles compared to conventional weaponry come as additional advantages.
In addition to military applications, NASA has proposed to use a railgun from a high-altitude aircraft to fire a small payload into orbit; however, the extreme g-forces involved would necessarily restrict the usage to only the sturdiest of payloads.
The United States Naval Surface Warfare Center Dahlgren Division demonstrated an 8 MJ railgun firing 3.2 kg (7.1 lb) projectiles in October 2006 as a prototype of a 64 MJ weapon to be deployed aboard Navy warships. The main problem the U.S. Navy has had with implementing a railgun cannon system is that the guns wear out due to the immense pressures, stresses and heat that are generated by the millions of amperes of current necessary to fire projectiles with megajoules of energy. Such weapons, while not nearly as powerful as a cruise missile like a BGM-109 Tomahawk cruise missile that will deliver 3000 MJ of destructive energy to a target, will theoretically allow the Navy to deliver more granular firepower at a fraction of the cost of a missile, and will be much harder to shoot down versus future defensive systems. For context another relevant comparison is the Rheinmetall 120mm gun used on main battle tanks will generate 9 MJ of muzzle energy. An MK 8 round fired from the 16″ guns of an Iowa Class battleship at 2500 fps (762 m/s) has 360 MJ of kinetic energy at the muzzle.
Since then, BAE Systems has delivered a 32 MJ prototype (muzzle energy) to the U.S. Navy. The same amount of energy is released by the detonation of 4.8 kg (11 lb) of C4.
The Navy may eventually enhance railgun technology to enable it to fire at a range of 200 nmi (230 mi; 370 km) and impact with 64 megajoules of energy. One shot would require 6 million amps of current, so it will take a long time to develop capacitors that can generate enough energy and strong enough gun materials.

Amber at the front desk took care of us! She was the one who took the reservation and was there for the party, so very helpful. The kids had a blast in the pool which was more salt water than chlorine which was great for the amount of time we were in the pool. Some of the kids didn't swim well, but for 7 yr old kids having the deep as only 4.5 ft meant that they didn't have any problems. We had a Jacuzzi room, which ended up being two separate rooms for boys and girls each to have a changing room. Such a wonderful staff and great place for a pool party!

Fourth-liner Tom Wilson atoned for two penalties by scoring the winning goal early in the third period as the Washington Capitals clinched the Presidents' Trophy by beating the Columbus Blue Jackets 4-1 Monday night.
The Capitals needed only a point to clinch the NHL's best record this season and wrapped up home-ice advantage throughout the Stanley Cup playoffs with seven games left. Justin Williams and T.J. Oshie also scored and Nicklas Backstrom added an empty-netter for Washington, which has an NHL-leading 113 points.
Goaltender Braden Holtby made 21 saves to earn his 46th win, two shy of Martin Brodeur's single-season record.
Cam Atkinson scored for the Blue Jackets, who lost for the ninth time in their past 13 games. Sergei Bobrovsky stopped 35 of the 38 shots he faced.
The Capitals won the Presidents' Trophy for the second time in franchise history. They still have a handful of players left from the group that won it in 2009-10.
Washington lost to the Montreal Canadiens in the first round in 2010, and Backstrom said Monday morning that the Presidents' Trophy doesn't mean anything. But home-ice advantage has its value for a team that is 29-7-2 at Verizon Center.
Home was kind to the Capitals against the Blue Jackets on a night they didn't have their best for 60 minutes.
After withstanding an early penalty kill with Wilson in the box for tripping, Washington took a 1-0 lead 6:30 into the first period when Williams collected the puck off a rebound of John Carlson's shot and tapped it into an open net. Williams' 22nd of the season was the Capitals' first 5-on-5 goal in 184:10, dating to their March 22 game in Ottawa.
The lead lasted less than 12 minutes. Washington's Dmitry Orlov turned the puck over on a heads-up play by Rene Bourque, and Atkinson took advantage of the gift by rifling a shot past Holtby 18:06 into the first.
After a second period without a goal, Wilson made the most of his time in the offensive zone 3:46 into the third. After a shot by Daniel Winnik, Mike Richards got the puck to Wilson, who finished for his seventh goal of the season.
In his return to the lineup after missing two games with an illness, Oshie added the insurance goal on the power play 14:26 into the third, deflecting Matt Niskanen's point shot.

Amber Rose Turns Up The Heat In Ohne Titel Dress
Amber Rose was looking like a real hottie as she headed out into the streets for some shopping therapy 101! Amber has never been known for dressing in a conservative manner, so it was no surprise when she stepped out in this hot number to do some shopping at the Agent Provocateur in West Hollywood. The bright orange dress Amber wore was a $530 Ohne Titel Zip Front Pointelle Dress. The dress is a body conscious piece that gives Amber's figure the most perfect shape. Although the orange shade can be difficult for many women to pull off, Amber Rose pulled it off perfectly.
The dress also features a zipper-front design, tank straps and a round neckline that revealed the perfect amount of cleavage for Amber's very provocative style. To bring even more flair into the look, Amber also wore a funky pair of shades! The sunglasses she wore were a pair of $339 Dolce & Gabbana Floral Filigree Cat Eye Sunglasses. What really made the sunglasses stand out is the gorgeous gold filigree detailing and brown gradient lenses. Unlike her usual looks, Amber Rose decided to keep her footwear simple by wearing a pair of flat sandals instead of her usual stiletto pumps.
Overall, Amber's look is super hot for the summer! The combination of the orange body conscious dress and 'stunna shade', gave Amber the most alluring, casual summer look. What do you guys think of Amber Rose's shopping day outfit?! Let us know by leaving a comment down below!

Thanks to James Gunn's vision, audiences fell in love with the Guardians of the Galaxy, once one of the most obscure titles in Marvel's roster Now, the formerly-ignored group of outcasts is a household name. To address questions from fans, James Gunn held a question and answer forum on his Facebook account, and the things he had to say concerning Marvel and his future movies were more than just interesting.
The Guardians At SDCC
One of the first questions asked concerned the well-received teaser footage for Guardians of the Galaxy Volume 2 shown during this year's San Diego Comic Con (SDCC). The director clarified that the footage will not be released any time soon, but assured that what little was seen in the SDCC panel will make it to the final cut.
It was just for you in the room, and is part of what we're putting in the movie, of course... People cried and one person fainted when they saw Baby Groot. He's like the Beatles. That was pretty fun.
For those waiting for the trailer or a glimpse of the teaser footage, Gunn guaranteed that it may drop when people least expect it.
Not too long. Also not too soon.
The Guardians' Second Mix Tape
With excitement building forGuardians of the Galaxy Vol. 2
, fans want to know more about the secretive sequel's story not to mention new characters like Ego the Living Planet (Kurt Russell) and Mantis (Pom Klementieff). Asked about his favorite newbies, Gunn explained those two turned out to be his favorite newcomers.
Kurt Russell as Ego, probably. But I also love Pom as Mantis.
He assured fans that the new characters' stories won't interfere with the progress of the already existing character arcs, such as Star-Lord's (Chris Pratt) or Yondu's (Michael Rooker).
To answer those questions you have to see the movie - but I promise you it all fits together - Meredith Quill's story with Peter's story with Yondu's story with Ego's story.
Guardians of the Galaxy is notable for being one of the few Marvel movies to have few connections to the other Marvel movies outside of the Infinity Stones and Thanos (Josh Brolin). This is a trend James Gunn is keen on continuing. When asked if he would add an Avenger or Thanos to the movie or even consider a making a Rocket Raccoon-Deadpool crossover, he said that even if he could, he'd choose not to.
...I'm not sure what's going on next but IF I chose to stay in the MCU I'd be playing solely with cosmic characters related to the Guardians-verse.
He has also gone on record to say that his favorite moment from Guardians of the Galaxy was Drax (Dave Bautista) petting Rocket Raccoon (Bradley Cooper) at the movie's end while clarifying that both Rocket and Groot (Vin Diesel) would make bad roommates.
They would both be shitty roommates, but Groot is probably the better of the two.
Gunn and DC
Given how popular superhero movies are, questions about Marvel's "rival" DC were expected, but what few saw coming were James Gunn's possible ties to the brand. While sharing his opinions on DC's latest cinematic efforts, he revealed that he was also offered the chance to helm a DC project but turned it down for personal reasons.
I thought there was some amazing action sequences in Man of Steel, but I haven't seen the other two films ['Batman V Superman: Dawn of Justice' and 'Suicide Squad']. I've had opportunities to make DC films, but I haven't said yes to anything, and not sure I would at this time.
Even if he currently works for Marvel, he made it clear that he loves comics from both sides, with Cassandra Cain's run as Batgirl being his favorite DC character. He also revealed what DC titles he'd like to take charge of if given the chance.
I've talked before about which projects appeal to me the most IF I was into making one, and it's always Shazam and Metal Men and Swamp Thing and [Jonah] Hex and a few other DC IPs (Intellectual Properties) I've enjoyed for a great deal of my life.
James Gunn made a name for himself by turning a band of little-known characters into a pop culture phenomenon, so it's no surprise that the DC heroes he likes are somewhat obscure, similar to the Guardians of the Galaxy. Even if the latest Marvel and DC films currently don't share any creator, it wouldn't be a bad idea to hope for a DC movie from James Gunn, especially since one of the character he mentioned desperately needs cinematic redemption.
James Gunn's Future
Gunn also promised that there will be more to his film resume outside of movies based on a Marvel comic's pages while also talking about his return to the horror genre, as embodied by the upcoming The Belko Experiment.
I'm playing around with one project, but it's a secret for now. The Belko Experiment will be out BEFORE GOTG 2.
The movie he mentioned is an upcoming horror movie starring Guardians veteran Michael Rooker, which is slated to debut at this year's Toronto Film Festival. The Belko Experiment follows a group of 83 American expatriates who find themselves trapped in a building in Brazil where they are forced to play a murderous game orchestrated by a voice on the speaker system.
After confirming that his underrated movie Slither (2006) won't be getting a Blu-Ray release any time soon and citing the thriller Green Room and HBO's epic Game of Thrones as his favorites of 2016, he gave this advice to aspiring film makers when asked what he would say to them by using just one word.
Finish what you start (four words).

"Lulamoon – " Lyra began.
The blue unicorn glared at Lyra Heartstrings. "Trixie," she ordered in a tone one normally reserved for informing ponies that their loved ones had met horrible ends, and that one enjoyed relating this fact immensely.
Lyra blinked a few times at the intensity. "I'm…sorry," the mint-green unicorn apologized. "It's just that Princess Luna said that 'Trixie' was a nickname, and I didn't think I knew you well enough."
The other unicorn stared across the wagon cabin at Lyra for a few moments, before sighing. "My given name is Trixie Lulamoon. I'm from Neigh Orleans, and the tradition there is to use a pony's second name if they have one. But I hate, I hate, Lulamoon. So call me Trixie."
Lyra raised an eyebrow. "What's wrong with Lulamoon?"
"I hate it."
"I gathered. But I mean, what's actually wrong with it?"
The blue unicorn turned her head down, staring at the large cabin's floor. The two had left Canterlot an half an hour ago, but the train ride still had about another hour and a half before it reached their destination of Ponyville. So far, the cabin had been just about the only enjoyable part of the train ride – it had been first-class, so the two unicorns had as much space as they wanted to themselves. The cabin was, in fact, almost as large as the apartment that Lyra had been staying in for the past several years while living in Canterlot and attending Luna's school of magic.
Lyra realized after several minutes of waiting that Trixie wasn't going to respond to her question. The unicorn let out a sigh as she looked out the train's window, as the train sped by Equestria. The entire landscape was blanketed in glistening white snow, the aftermath of a nation-wide storm that the weather ponies had insisted was necessary. It gave the land a serene, inspiring appearance, and as long as Lyra sat in the heated train car she could appreciate the winter wonderland thoroughly. It was enough to make her forget about the grumpy pony sitting across from her and hum out a nice tune…
Trixie's head shot up at the melody. "What are you doing?" she demanded.
Lyra glanced at Trixie. "Humming," she answered.
"No, that tune," Trixie clarified, one eye narrowing as she leaned forward. "That was 'Skip to My Lou' you were humming."
"No it wasn't," Lyra responded, then considered the absent-minded song. "Was it? I don't know, I wasn't thinking…" Now, however, she was, and quite suddenly a full-toothed grin split her features when enlightenment struck. "Oh, stars above, that's why you hate Lulamoon," the mint green unicorn realized.
"No it isn't!" Trixie insisted, though her widening eyes suggested the opposite.
"Lou, lou, skip to my lou," Lyra sang, leaning forward. "Lou, lou, skip to my lou, fly's in the buttermilk, shoo fly shoo – "
"I'll turn you into a newt," Trixie threatened, pointing a hoof at Lyra, even as the unicorn continued to sing. "Every school day when I was a filly I had to hear ponies singing that song whenever my name was mentioned and seriously I will turn you into a newt if you don't stop!"
Lyra did stop, but only because her laughter was interrupting the song too much. "Every time?" she asked between giggles.
"Every time," Trixie insisted. "I don't know, somepony thought it was funny and maybe it was funny, but it got old real fast." Her gaze turned to a golden object sitting next to Lyra. "Why not put that thing to use?"
Lyra's horn glowed, and a glowing aura of magic wrapped around her lyre as it levitated over to in front of her. The unicorn shifted sitting positions on the train's seat, into one that most ponies thought looked incredibly uncomfortable, but which Lyra never minded herself – back resting against the cushioned wall, hind legs hanging over the seat's edge.
One of Trixie's eyebrows rose sharply at the sight, and managed to ascend even further as Lyra placed her hooves on either side of her lyre. "You're…going to play with your hooves?" Trixie asked.
"I'm better with my hooves than with magic," Lyra responded matter-of-factly.
Trixie blinked a few times at the statement, finding it exceedingly difficult to believe. After a moment, however, she settled down onto her stomach on the seat. "Fine," the blue unicorn decided, waving a hoof imperiously. "Play on, maestro."
My little pony, My little pony
Ahh ahh ahh ahhh...
My little pony
Friendship never meant that much to me
My little pony
But you're all here and now I can see
Stormy weather; Lots to share
A musical bond; With love and care
Teaching laughter; It's an easy feat,
And magic makes it all complete!
You have my little ponies
How'd I ever make so many true friends?
"And here we are," Lyra proclaimed as the two stepped from the train and into the cool, crisp morning air, Trixie grateful for the enchantment woven into her cape that would keep her warm despite the thin material it was made from. "Ponyville."
Trixie pulled back her hat's brim, giving what she could see of the town a once-over. Unlike Canterlot, Manehattan, or most of the great cities of Equestria, Ponyville didn't appear to have a single building over five stories tall. What the settlement lacked in vertical height, however, it made up for with horizontal spread; in terms of land area, Ponyville was one of the largest communities in the realm, though its population kept it firmly in the 'large town' category and out of the 'small city' one.
Trixie broke from her reverie long enough to see to it that her luggage and Lyra's own were delivered to their respective destinations by a quartet of earth pony porters that had accompanied them from Canterlot. She took the time to pass them each a couple of silver bits apiece as a gratuity and to ensure that the best of care was given to their belongings. She quickly afterwards plunged back into her own thoughts, however, as she considered the tasks that lay before her, the responsibility that she had, through a combination of reasoning, pleading, whining, and maybe a little blackmail, finally been able to wrest from Princess Luna. No, Ponyville was not a large city like Manehattan, Stalliongrad, or her hometown of Neigh Orleans, but that was what made it ideal for her to finally put everything she was learning from Luna to practical use.
"So," Lyra interrupted after growing uncomfortable with Trixie's silence, "where to first? The Apples? The weather team? Introducing yourself to the mayor?"
Trixie glanced at her mint-colored companion, currently wearing a warm-looking, wool winter cloak and a gray Gatsby cap, somehow fitting the latter snugly over her horn without making the style look uncomfortable. "You're eager," she observed.
"No offense, but I want to get this whole 'escort' job over and done with," Lyra responded.
Trixie grimaced at Lyra's subtle, but clear, reminder that the two were not friends, merely acquaintances. "How much is Princess Luna paying you?" she asked.
Lyra named a large, round figure. Trixie's eyes widened, causing Lyra to smirk. "Yeah, that was my reaction," she said as she pulled the brim of her Gatsby cap over her eyes in a sign of mock embarrassment. Trixie looked away at that, her thoughts turning inwards to what the conversation must have been like, or at least how she saw it in her mind's eye:
"You," Princess Luna, tall and regal-looking as ever, said as she pointed to Lyra. "We are investing in our student a measure of responsibility for a change, and making her Our representative to Ponyville! And you are from Ponyville! So We ask that you serve as her escort for a few days while she settles. It's not like you'll have anything else to do since you're a musician and so don't have a real job."
"Oh no," Lyra responded. "You want me to deal with Trixie Lou-lou-skip-to-my-Lulamoon? Nopony likes her! I've never met her personally, and I would like to continue that lucky streak!"
"You're right!" Luna exclaimed. "Especially after the ice palace incident, nopony likes Trixie. But We shall pay you an exorbitant amount of bits to do so!" And then the princess named a number.
Lyra considered. "Maybe if you throw in some land," she suggested. "And a title. Vicereine Lyra has a nice ring to it…"
"Trixie," Lyra interrupted her fellow unicorn. Trixie blinked a few times, and saw that she had nearly walked face-first into a lamp post and had been stopped only by Lyra's outstretched hoof.
The blue unicorn shook her head to clear it. "Sorry," she apologized. "I was just thinking about…stuff."
"Stuff?" Lyra asked.
"Stuff," Trixie confirmed. "And junk."
Lyra was silent for several moments at the painfully obvious evasion to her concern, before letting out a sigh. "Whatever," she said. "So where to first?"
Trixie considered, looking up to the sky as she did so. From the position of the sun, it looked to be about eleven o'clock – wherever they went, they'd have to hurry if they wanted to avoid being caught outside during midday. A rumbling stomach quickly decided Trixie's first destination. "The Apple Trust," she decided with a nod.
Lyra nodded, turning towards a street and beginning to trot off, her charge in tow. As they walked, Trixie considered the ponies around her. Some gave her an odd look at her choice of clothing – a purple, star-studded cape and wizard's hat – but mostly she received only a few polite nods or the occasional greeting. It was a welcome change from the reputation she had managed to build for herself in Canterlot over the past few years, where the best she could usually hope for was an indifferent stare – and those she hadn't received at all over the past few weeks, ever since the ice palace –
No, Trixie insisted, forcing herself to forget about that night, the ice-turned-water getting everywhere and the absolutely livid look in Princess Luna's eyes. No, you're not going to think like that. Fresh start, Trixie. Fresh start.
"Lyra, I'm going to ask you something, and I want you to be honest," Trixie stated.
"Are you lost?"
Lyra's silence to Trixie's inquiry was answer enough. The blue unicorn let out a long sigh as her companion stopped at a fork in the road, considering as she rubbed the back of her head with one hoof. "I thought you grew up in Ponyville," Trixie accused.
"I did, but I never really went out to the Apples," Lyra responded as she looked around. Ponyville was to the east of them, still visible over the rolling, snow-covered hills, but the site of the Apple Trust's first and largest farm was somehow evading them. "They came into town. No need to go to the farm."
"So you're lost," Trixie surmised.
Lyra glared at her charge a moment. "No," she said firmly, pointing a hoof down the right path. "It's that way." She began trotting off, a determined spring to her steps.
With a sigh, Trixie followed, glancing nervously at the sky as she did. "It's just about midday," she noted.
"I know," Lyra responded gruffly, glancing over her shoulder a moment before returning her attention to the road ahead. "It's just a stupid superstition. It's not like Corona is going to fly on down and immolate us just for being outside."
Trixie shivered slightly nevertheless, and not from the cold, as the two trotted next to a white fence that separated the road from an empty farmer's field, a field notably lacking apples of any kind. Despite Lyra's words, she picked up the pace just as much as Trixie did, and each cast nervous glances to the sky as the sun continued its inexorable climb overhead. At a guess, they had maybe ten minutes, at most, before the sun reached its zenith.
"Should have gone to my new home first," Trixie muttered to herself. "I knew it was too close to midday to head out." She glared at Lyra. "Or would you have gotten lost on the way there as well?"
"I'm not lost," Lyra insisted.
"So where's Sweet Apple Acres, then?"
"There should be signs. I mean, there were signs all over the place back before I went to Canterlot. I don't know what happened to them." Lyra glared at Trixie. "But I'm not lost." She glanced ahead. "A ha. And I can prove it."
Ahead, Trixie and Lyra spotted a gold-coated, orange-maned earth pony trotting with nearly as much speed as the two unicorns were. She was wearing a wide-brimmed sunhat and saddlebags laden with groceries, and was just beginning to open a gate in the white fence they had been trotting beside when she spotted them.
"Oh my," she exclaimed on seeing the two unicorns. An odd look of hopefulness came over her features. "What are you two fillies doing out at this time of day?"
"Getting increasingly lost," Trixie answered, glancing once more at the sun. At this point, it was close enough to midday that no one would argue the point. Trixie tried to remember the last time she had been outside when the sun was at its zenith, but couldn't for the life of her remember. Nopony stayed outside during midday without an extremely good reason.
"We're not lost," Lyra insisted. She pointed down the dirt path. "It's that way to Sweet Apple Acres, right?"
The earth pony's hopefulness faded away at Lyra's question, replaced by a sort of resignation. "Um, yes," she responded. "Just keep going straight down that way about two miles. You can't miss it."
"Ha!" Lyra exclaimed, turning to Trixie and sticking out her tongue.
Trixie ignored her as she tipped her wizard's cap. "Thank-you," she responded, consciously doing nothing to hide her nervousness. She turned to Lyra. "Come on. At a full gallop we can probably be there in a few minutes…"
The orange earth pony bit her lip at Trixie's obvious distress, and didn't seem to miss Lyra's own despite the mint-green unicorn working to hide it. "Hold on," she insisted. "Is it really that important that you get where you're going quickly?"
Trixie pointed a hoof straight up. "It is if we don't want to be outside in this," she responded.
"Is that all?" she asked. At a confirming nod from Trixie, she pointed down the path that lead to her house. "You can come inside if you like. I was just about to make myself lunch."
"Oh, no. We wouldn't want to impose," Trixie lied, for herself at least.
"No. I insist," the earth pony said, trotting behind Trixie and Lyra and shooing them towards her house, a rustic cottage about a hundred feet from the fence. Trixie put up only a small show of resisting before the three of them crossed the distance from the fence to the earth pony's front door and made their way inside. Trixie did not hide her very real sigh of relief as she got out from under the sun's rays and was, instead, safely enclosed by four walls and a sturdy roof. The house inside was simple and plainly decorated, looking like it contained little more than a living room, kitchen, and a few bedrooms, without so much as a second story.
"Thank-you," Trixie said as she turned to the earth pony who had taken the two unicorns in. Yes, Trixie had subtly influenced her towards that decision with a few well-chosen words said in the right tone of voice, but that didn't mean she couldn't be grateful about it.
Her new acquaintance shook her orange tresses. "No need," she responded as she slipped her saddlebags off of her, taking them in her mouth and bringing them to her kitchen. With her bags no longer in the way, Trixie could see her cutie mark – a trio of healthy-looking, green-stalked carrots. After setting them down, she turned back to Trixie and Lyra. "My name is Carrot Top, incidentally."
"Lyra Heartstrings," the mint unicorn said as she used her magic to slide off her Gatsby cap and wool cloak. She used the levitated cap to point to Trixie. "And this is Trixie Lul – "
"Just Trixie," the other unicorn interrupted with an angry glare towards her companion, before turning back to Carrot Top. "I'm Ponyville's new representative from the Night Court of Luna."
Trixie tried to keep the pride from her voice at that statement. She tried. She did not succeed, but she didn't feel particularly bad about that, either. Carrot Top's eyes widened a little at the proclamation. "Oh my!" she exclaimed, trotting up to Trixie and giving a slight bow. "Um…so would that be Lady Trixie, or Countess, or Vicereine, or…?"
Trixie shook her head, trying to hide her enjoyment at the bow. "Just Trixie. Or Representative Trixie, I suppose. I'm not a noble."
Carrot Top seemed to be simultaneously surprised that the Princess would appoint a commoner to the position of Ponyville representative, and comforted by the thought that Ponyville's new representative would be a mare of the people. From what Trixie understood, the previous holder – Blueblood something, or something Blueblood, Trixie hadn't bothered to remember – had kept his noble person distant from the ponies of Ponyville prior to his retirement from office just a few weeks ago.
"Anyway," Lyra interrupted, "we don't want to impose. We'll just wait out midday here and be on our way."
"To the Apples," Carrot Top added, her voice once more losing a bit of joy. She looked to Trixie. "So this is probably about the Longest Night festival, isn't it?"
Trixie nodded at the mention of the celebration of the winter solstice, coming up in just two days. "Yes," she confirmed. "I've been appointed as the official overseer of the festival. The Apples are overseeing the food stalls, I'm given to understand." She looked out a window, at the empty, snow-covered fields surrounding the house. "So, you're a carrot farmer, I take it?" Given the pony's name and cutie mark, it was hardly a surprise when she nodded in affirmation. "What have you got planned?"
The farmer blinked a few times at Trixie's question. "I'm sorry?" she asked.
"For the festival," Trixie continued. "Or is it some kind of surprise?"
The golden earth pony's eyes continued to flutter in confusion for a few moments. "I…well, I don't have any plans," she said, as though the answer should have been obvious. "The Apples are overseeing the food stalls."
Now it was Trixie's turn to be confused. "Well, yes, because the Trust is experienced with coordinating large numbers of ponies," she said. "But you don't want to miss a sales opportunity like the Longest Night, do you?"
"Uh, Trixie?" Lyra asked, stepping next to the blue unicorn. "That's not how it works in Ponyville. At least not with the big-time festivals in fall and winter and spring. The Apples run all the food stalls."
"That's just how it is, Representative," Carrot Top said, shrugging a little. "It might have something to do with the Apples being the founding family of Ponyville. There are other farms, and we get to set up stalls during any of the minor celebrations, but not during the Longest Night, the Eventime, or the Ingathering."
Trixie considered that. More specifically, she considered the thought of having only apples to eat in two days' time. Apple fritters, apple pies, apple juice, caramel apple, candied apple, apple cider…
"That's stupid and that's not what's happening this year," Trixie proclaimed.

|Objectives: Executive function deficits have been described in early and continuously treated patients with phenylketonuria (PKU). The aim of this study was to examine performance on executive function tasks of treated patients with PKU diagnosed by 2 years of age. Patients and methods: Ten patients with PKU and normal intelligence score who were diagnosed before the age of 2 years and subsequently treated continuously, were compared with 15 typically developing control children on a battery of neuropsychological tests, including the tower of London (TOL), continuous performance test (CPT), and Stroop test. Results: PKU cases showed significantly poorer performance on the TOL task compared to the control group with the difference being significant in the first three levels of the test. With the CPT, PKU cases had significantly more omission errors than control subjects. On the Stroop test there was no statistically significant difference between the groups. No significant correlation was found between the concurrent serum phenylalanine (Phe) level and results of the executive tests in PKU patients. Conclusion: This study identified executive dysfunction in early-treated PKU patients with normal IQ, particularly in the planning and attention domains. Further studies are required to compare the results with those from other neurodevelopmental disorders such as ADHD and autism, to establish whether the pattern of findings is specific to PKU.

Arnott's Chewy Caramel Chocolate Coated Biscuits
Taste: These rectangular cookies from Australia consisted of three internal layers — chocolate cookies on top and bottom, and a middle layer consisting of a dense chocolate creme on the edges and chewy caramel in the middle — plus a chocolate coating on the whole exterior. They tasted great! They were crunchy and had a nice variety of textures, plus the caramel and chocolate worked really well together, especially with a glass of cold milk.
Shop: Buy snacks at Amazon.com
Aroma: Pretty good chocolate smell, with a hint of caramel.

Tri-State Unveils "Penn for Peds" Campaign
February 19th, 2008, 3:54 pm
The Tri-State Transportation Campaign recently held a contest to name their campaign to improve the pedestrian environment around Penn Station. The winner: "Penn for Peds." "In three short words, we've got a reclamation of pedestrian space, a locale, a beneficiary class, and a mission," they said.
The mission: "Currently, the streets and sidewalks surrounding the nation's busiest rail station are inadequate at best. On top of supporting a plan put forward by Borough President Scott Stringer's office to add sidewalk capacity and bike lanes to 33rd Street, Tri-State also supports the closing of 32nd Street between Greeley Square and Penn."
Sounds like a plan, but what about reopening the Gimbels Tunnel and other underground passageways? It would certainly take a load off the sidewalks!

"Writer Wallace Stegner talked of the West as having "boomers" and "stickers," people who exploited a place and those who nested. Add to these today's new high-rent locust–the "hoppers"–affluent global transients who swarm through on their career paths. The effect of this is a class of people who regard our locality as a temporary roost. Hoppers live a "lifestyle," rather than a life in an actual physical place that makes demands on them. They don't have to adjust to the land and climate, know the local history, or be touched by any of it. They can live in a generic high-rise with concierge service and enjoy a view that might as well be a hologram."

"Ward 25"
About: King's Mill Hospital King's Mill Hospital Sutton-in-Ashfield NG17 4JL
Posted via NHS Choices
I spent two weeks on Ward 25 between June 5th and June 19th. I cannot express in words how grateful I am to the staff on the ward. They made me feel so comfortable and I miss them all so much! I left the ward with a positive mental attitude I hope to maintain and thanks to them I am getting back on track. Their support through harder nights and their friendliness on the nights when I needed to talk meant that I left feeling so much more positive than when I went in. Thank you so much, all of you.

Smaller Government- Keep the government out of the way of individuals and business and both will be more successful. Decentralize governments, moving more services to local governments and groups who can better respond to the specific needs of a community.
Low Taxes Rates- Individuals and families know better where we should spend our money. Art Laffer showed that lower taxes allows people to spend more which in turn creates more economic activity. The result of that increase in spending and activity is that the government actually brings in higher revenues. Additionally, government is inherently bureaucratic and inefficient so government spending should be undertaken as a last resort and when necessary, overseen with an eagle eye.
Strong National Defense- The U.S. Constitution puts national defense in the hands of the federal government and this responsibility should not be taken lightly
Personal Responsibility – Just as Government has responsibilities so do individuals and companies to contribute to society positively, obey the law, and avoid dependency on the government
Strong Families- Government policies should seek to encourage strong functional families and government policies should never undermine core family values.
Freedom- God gave mankind free choice, and it is the from the free exercise of that choice that citizens empower their governments to lead. Government is there to serve the people, not the other way around.
Helping People Succeed- Making people dependent on government undermines those people's ability and drive to fully realize the American Dream of working hard to build a better life for yourself and your children. Social safety net policies should help people get back on their feet, provide training and services that support their success on their own rather than make them dependent on government handouts.
Free Market Solutions- People & companies make better financial decisions than governments. As Adam Smith's put it, the Invisible Hand of profit motives drives ever improving financial decisions in a free market. A free market will always produce higher quality products at a lower price than when government provides the good or service. Therefore, whenever possible free market solutions should be favored over government run solutions. Additionally, regulation should only be instituted in areas where the market is not able to self-govern itself or where there is a clear indication of abuse that the market fails to govern. Anti-monopoly laws are an example of good regulation that supports a vigorous free market.

Dear Pharmacist: What are the best treatments for hemorrhoids, both the internal sort and the external? I ask because my wife and I suffer with these. Lucky us. -- S.D., Gainesville, Fla.
In the United States, about half of all people will suffer from hemorrhoids at some point in life, usually between the ages of 20 and 50. It's not necessarily a problem of the elderly or constipated. It can happen to anyone, even people who are healthy, but happen to sit for very long periods.
Hemorrhoids -- whether internal or external -- occur because of weak veins that swell because of pressure. If these weak veins occur on the legs, we refer to them as "varicose" veins. The blood pools and causes veins to swell and engorge; this can be caused by many situations, among them obesity, pregnancy, lifting heavy objects or boxes, straining on the toilet, coughing, sneezing, standing or sitting for long periods of time.
People who eat a high-fiber diet and stay well-hydrated are less likely to suffer with hemorrhoids.
Before I offer suggestions, I will first describe internal and external. The primary difference is pain. With internal hemorrhoids, there is no pain because the swollen veins are higher up in the rectum where there are no nerves. There maybe no symptoms at all, or you may have bleeding after a bowel movement. For some bleeding may be the first, and only sign, of internal hemorrhoids. For others, you may have a thin stool and the feeling that you are not finished yet.
External hemorrhoids hurt like crazy and if untreated it can thrombose, meaning it can turn purplish-blue and bleed. They can itch, burn and irritate the anus, and you can feel them easily. No matter the type, don't sit excessively, or let your butt fall asleep on hard chairs!
Here are some ideas to help yourself:
* Witch hazel: A natural astringent that helps with the swelling and pain.
* Hydrocortisone or calendula cream: Apply externally to ease pain.
* Preparation H suppositories: Perfect for internal hemorrhoids.
* An ice cube or ice pack: Apply this to your little monster, but wrap it in a paper towel first; don't put it on bare skin.
* Ibuprofen: An anti-inflammatory can do a lot toward reducing inflammation and pain.
* Quercetin: A dietary supplement related to vitamin C that may help improve vein strength. Take 300 mg to 1,000 mg three times daily.
* Warm sitz baths: 10 to 20 minutes.
Two herbs have a long history with regard to hemorrhoids. * Butcher's Broom: Contains ruscogenin, which helps tighten the blood vessels. This herb was studied at Memorial Sloan-Kettering Medical Center.
* Horse Chestnut: Contains aescin, which tones vein walls and is commonly used in Europe.
Aloe vera juice may help constipation.
Please see a specialist who can make sure that pencil thin stools, bleeding or other symptoms are in fact related to hemorrhoids, rather than something more serious. Physicians offer numerous helpful treatments.

School auctions were really popular when I was a kid. They used to get parents to donate foods, games, services, whatever and then auction them off to the highest bidder. My mom would always donate the same things which went over pretty well in almost every circumstance – A homemade South African dinner for six.
I have no idea if schools would allow this now but it was always a big hit. She would make chutney chicken with bananas, sambals (side dishes) including a yogurt sauce, an herb sauce that I cannot really remember, and it would include some kind of rice dish that I never really liked. Or maybe I'm making that up, all I can really remember is the chicken and the dessert.
Oh the dessert. Tipsy tart.
A tispy tart the way my mom made it was neither a tart nor likely to get anyone tipsy. It's a rich date cake that is baked until slightly dry and then promptly soaked through with a buttery brandy sauce. In the original recipe the sauce is boiled to remove the alcohol. I don't do that anymore.
I used to make this cake as my "Let-me-impress-you" cake. I made it for Jeff's parents at some point early in our relationship. Then I forgot about it until I needed something to make for a biweekly potluck and realized this would be perfect.
I changed the recipe a bit to make it actually tipsy and give the cake more lift. The recipe called for dates and baking soda to take a hot water bath, presumably to soften the dates. But that also means activating the baking soda which means potentially less rise in the cake. So I kept the baking soda with the dry ingredients for a fluffier cake.
The sweet batter and rich syrup give the final cake a kind of butterscotch-y flavor and while the dates are an important part of the dish, it doesn't take like dates. Which is good. I don't particularly like dates when it comes down to it.
This cake demands two pieces. And then maybe a third the next morning for breakfast.
Tipsy Tart
Lightly adapted from The Myrna Rosen Cookbook
For the cake:
1 cup chopped pitted dates
1 cup boiling water
1 1/2 cups all-purpose flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1 tsp baking soda
1 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp ground cinnamon
1 tsp ground nutmeg (freshly grated is even better)
½ tsp ground clove
½ tsp ground ginger
1 stick (8 tbs) butter, softened to room temperature
1 cup (250ml) sugar
2 eggs, lightly beaten with a fork
For the soaking syrup:
1 cup sugar
3/4 cup water
3 tbs butter
3/4 cup Brandy*
1 tsp vanilla extract
Combine the dates and hot water and let sit for at least 20 minutes while preparing the other ingredients.
Preheat the oven to 350F and butter a 10 inch cake pan. A spring-form pan (that is really liquid tight) is a good idea here. This cake gets sticky.
In a medium size bowl, combine the flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, and spices. Stir to combine.
Put the butter and sugar in the work bowl of a stand mixer and using the paddle attachment or in a large bowl using a hand mixer, cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until fluffy and light in color. Add the eggs one at a time, combining between each addition.
Turn the speed to low and add the dry goods in three batches. Stir until almost fully incorporated after each addition.
Stir the date mixture into the batter by hand and incorporate any leftover flour. Pour the prepared batter into the prepared pan.
Bake the cake for about 45 minutes or until a toothpick comes out clean. It's over to over-bake here since the cake will be plenty moist.
While the cake is baking, combine all the syrup ingredients EXCEPT the brandy and vanilla in a medium non-reactive saucepan over medium heat. Bring to a boil and then turn off the heat. Add the brandy and vanilla and stir to combine.*
When the cake is done remove it from the oven and put the still-closed pan on a plate or tray to catch any leaking syrup. Pour the syrup slowly over the warm cake and let it soak in. You may need to stop pouring and wait every few minutes as the cake becomes more saturated. The liquid tends to run to the center so make sure you drizzle a lot over the edges.
Serve warm or room temperature, preferably with whipped cream. The cake is even better a day or two after it's made.
* If you want to remove the alcohol, add everything together to the saucepan and bring to a boil. Then boil for several minutes. It's still just as delicious and it's how I had it as a kid.

Apnea - the temporary cessation of respiratory airflow - is a common cause of intermittent hypoxia (IH) in premature infants. We hypothesized that IH elicits a stress response and alters glucose homeostasis in the neonatal rat. Rat pups were studied on postnatal day (PD) 2, 8, 10, 12, and14. Pups were exposed to normoxia (control) or 6 cycles consisting of 30 s exposures to hypoxia (FiO2=3%) over a 60 min period. Blood samples were obtained at baseline, after the 3rd cycle (~30 min), and after the 6th cycle (~60 min). Tissue samples were collected following the 6th cycle. Plasma ACTH, corticosterone, glucose, and insulin were analyzed at all ages. Hypothalamic, pituitary, and adrenal mRNA expression was evaluated by qPCR in PD2, PD8, and PD12 pups. Exposure to IH elicited significant increases in plasma ACTH and corticosterone at all ages studied. The largest increase in corticosterone occurred in PD2 pups, despite only a very small increase in plasma ACTH. This ACTH-independent increase in corticosterone in PD2 pups was associated with increases in adrenal Ldlr and Star mRNA expression. Additionally, IH caused hyperglycemia and hyperinsulinemia at all ages. We conclude that IH elicits a significant pituitary-adrenal response and significantly alters glucose homeostasis. Furthermore, the quantitative and qualitative characteristics of these responses depend on developmental age.

Just a few postcards from New York Cit-ay!
This week I did some sketching, got glittery nails, toasted the end of winter with some bubbly rosé, wore my new cat-eye sunnies everywhere, and soaked in the sights and sounds of this crazy place I call home.
I also got a new necklace, which I fell in love with and then promptly broke. Story of my life.
What are YOU up to this week?
