The Intellectual Social Network
Quora is quickly becoming my preferred social network to 'invest' time in. I like to think of it as the Yahoo answers for people who are interested in the interesting. Their weekly digest is something I'd recommend anyone to sign up for, it's actually an email I like getting – rare indeed. There is some info about it here.
Recently there was a question which appealed to me and no doubt will you:
What are some of the most ridiculous startup ideas that eventually became successful. And the answers were total gold. They reminded me that anything can happen in the crazy world of startups and the worst thing we can do is try and predict the next winner. It's almost impossible. Mind you – VC's model is not based on picking winners either. It's based on placing enough bets a big winner is amongst them. They are a bit like 'the house' in a casino. They always win – well, one of the casinos does. They win because their 10,000 times return pays for the previous 99 failures.
Anyway, here's one great answer from that question above that just had to get a run right here on startup blog. Enjoy!
Ask yourself, if you were a venture capitalist pitched one of these ideas, what would your reaction have been?
- Facebook – the world needs yet another Myspace or Friendster except several years late. We'll only open it up to a few thousand overworked, anti-social, Ivy Leaguers. Everyone else will then join since Harvard students are so cool.
- Dropbox – we are going to build a file sharing and syncing solution when the market has a dozen of them that no one uses, supported by big companies like Microsoft. It will only do one thing well, and you'll have to move all of your content to use it.
- Amazon - we'll sell books online, even though users are still scared to use credit cards on the web. Their shipping costs will eat up any money they save. They'll do it for the convenience, even though they have to wait a week for the book.
- Virgin Atlantic – airlines are cool. Let's start one. How hard could it be? We'll differentiate with a funny safety video and by not being a**holes.
- Mint - give us all of your bank, brokerage, and credit card information. We'll give it back to you with nice fonts. To make you feel richer, we'll make them green.
- Palantir – we'll build arcane analytics software, put the company in California, hire a bunch of new college grad engineers, many of them immigrants, hire no sales reps, and close giant deals with D.C.-based defense and intelligence agencies!
- Craigslist – it will be ugly. It will be free. Except for the hookers.
- iOS – a brand new operating system that doesn't run a single one of the millions of applications that have been developed for Mac OS, Windows, or Linux. Only Apple can build apps for it. It won't have cut and paste.
- Google – we are building the world's 20th search engine at a time when most of the others have been abandoned as being commoditized money losers. We'll strip out all of the ad-supported news and portal features so you won't be distracted from using the free search stuff.
- Github – software engineers will pay monthly fees for the rest of their lives in order to create free software out of other free software!
- PayPal – people will use their insecure AOL and Yahoo email addresses to pay each other real money, backed by a non-bank with a cute name run by 20-somethings.
- Paperless Post – we are like Evite, except you pay us. All of your friends will know that you are an idiot.
- Instagram – filters! That's right, we got filters!
- LinkedIn – how about a professional social network, aimed at busy 30- and 40-somethings. They will use it once every 5 years when they go job searching.
- Tesla – instead of just building batteries and selling them to Detroit, we are going to build our own cars from scratch plus own the distribution network. During a recession and a cleantech backlash.
- SpaceX – if NASA can do it, so can we! It ain't rocket science.
- Firefox – we are going to build a better web browser, even though 90% of the world's computers already have a free one built in. One guy will do most of the work.
- Twitter – it is like email, SMS, or RSS. Except it does a lot less. It will be used mostly by geeks at first, followed by Britney Spears and Charlie Sheen.
My Google Plus Problem
Like most people I recently joined Google plus. I went in and set up my account. I was reasonably impressed and it looked quite cool. It had a couple of nice ideas, including the circles of friends concept of segmenting conversations. After I set up the account, it has been on my list of things to do. That is, to go into it, have a play around, get used to the system and better understand it.
A few weeks later I still haven't done it.
The interesting thing is that during this time I have still engaged with the social networks I already use. Including this blog and my twitter account. Turns out I still have time for social networks, just not that one. The only reason I will use Google plus is because I need to know about it, not because I need it. The fact that I need to invest time to 'learn how to navigate and use it', is also sub optimal.
If everyone ends up loving Google plus, I'm sure I'll get on board. But my Google Plus problem is that currently I don't have a social networking problem.
Winklevoss syndrome
You may have heard of the Winklevoss Brothers. They're two of the luckiest people on the planet. They received a reported $65 million in a settlement from Facebook for essentially having an 'idea stolen'. Latest reports are that they unhappy with the settlement terms because Facebook has recently been valued as high as $50 billion.I'm calling it Winklevoss Syndrome.
Winklevoss Syndrome = the false belief that an idea is ownable and that the real value of a business is strongly linked to the idea. People who suffer from this syndrome believe that they have some kind of ownership rights to something because they thought of it.
Although Mark Zuckerberg may have taken their idea, but he's the one who built, it, funded it, promoted it, resourced it and expanded it. I'll go as far as saying that the Winklevoss brothers are delusional if they believe they had anything to do with the success of Facebook. The idea of a social network has nothing to do with the act of building and populating a social network. Ideas in isolation have no value, ideas once executed 'may' have value. It's also worth remembering that every idea that any number of people could or did have, would always be executed very differently. I think the Winklevoss brothers are the luckiest entrepreneurs on the face of the planet. They received a $65 million dollar gift for an idea and some unfinished pieces of code. They got very lucky they ever met Zuckerberg.
Every fresh idea usually has thousands of entrepreneurs around the world toying with it or building it. Simply because they have foundations in common trends, insight and technology evolution. So next time you see your 'idea', being brought to life, remind yourself that you didn't 'do' anything about it. And then resist the temptation to suffer from Winklevoss Syndrome. Instead we should go and build something and see how limited the value of the original idea is.
The internet lives in Dog years
The internet is a bit like dogs. Life moves a bit more quickly. Which is why I still laugh whenever I hear that the latest hit website is going to be the dominate force forever in that that category. As Facebook is currently being touted to be, then I love to remind the pundit just a little bit about the history of the internet.
Yahoo was search. it was game set and match, then came Google.
Myspace was social networking – it had won, apparently…
Blackbery had stitched up the hand held internet enabled smart phone market…
Geocites was the way we'd all have our own websites… then came blogging
All of which remind us how things can change ever so quickly on the intenert. This wont change, because the barriers to entry are so low. $5 an hour in India for a coder, $9.99 for a domain, $Free internet access and a wifi enabled laptop for a few hundred dollars and you're an internet entrepreneur. Unlike TV and tradtional media outlets, anyone can play. Creativity wins, not financial resources.
The insight is that the forums people hang out in will always change, like disco's and pubs (the web is social) – it's also kinda Punk. Our job isn't to predict which is the next big thing, but to learn how to use them quickly so that we can participate in a timely manner.

Alumni News & Notes
Matriculation Convocation 2005: The Welcoming of 374 New SU Students
Sunday, Aug. 21, Southwestern University officially welcomed 374 new students into the community through the annual matriculation convocation ceremony. The concept of matriculation convocation has a long tradition within higher education. At Southwestern, matriculation convocation celebrates students entry into higher education, welcomes the entering class to SU and provides the class with a sense of the communitys traditions and values. President Jake Schrum 68 addressed the new students and shared his thoughts on the Southwestern educational experience. Students also were welcomed by Ebony Rose 02, SU student activities coordinator and masters student in African-American cultural studies and cinema media studies at New York Universitys Gallatin School of Individualized Study; Vice President for Student Life Jerry Brody; Provost and Dean of the Faculty James Hunt; and Brian Gingrich 08. As it does each year, matriculation convocation marked the ceremonial beginning of new students Southwestern experience.
You see, the future of Southwestern really is in your hands. As new members of the Southwestern community, you have the ability to continue creating the traditions that have endured through decades of changes in the student body, changes in the University landscape and with the addition of new faculty and staff. As an alumna, looking back on my time at Southwestern, I can honestly say that if your time at Southwestern teaches you one thing, I hope that it is this: No matter where you go or who you meet along the way, always be accountable and willing to actively participate in building and maintaining your community. Ebony Rose
Highlighted Readings for the 2006 Brown Symposium (XXVIII)
Each year, students, alumni and friends of Southwestern await the Brown Symposium and the opportunity to take a closer look at an area of study. The 2006 Brown Symposium (XXVIII) at Southwestern University is GNP or Gross National Well-Being? The 2006 Brown Symposium will focus on the latest theoretical research and findings from economics, neuroscience and psychology, which indicate that consuming more, earning more or being wealthier does not necessarily lead to greater happiness or well-being. The symposiums intent is to encourage measuring quality of life as an assessment of social and individual happiness and to discourage using capital or total consumption as a measurement of well-being.
Mark your calendar for Feb. 9-10, 2006, and consider these readings suggested by A.J. Senchack, professor of economics and business and chair of the 2006 Brown Symposium: Happiness: Lessons from a New Science (2005) by Richard Layard, and Happiness & Economics: How the Economy and Institutions Affect Human Well-Being (2002), by Bruno S. Frey and Alois Stutzer.

Follow me on my adventures around the world!
I'm alive and well!
Posted on October 27, 2013
Cooked up some kurufasulye - white beans in a tomato & onion sauce - served over rice, with ayran (Turkish yogurt drink), bread, and some fresh grapes for dinner!
It turned out far better than the last time I attempted it in Boston, though I still learned a lot and will have much to improve for the next time I make it.

My blog turns 3 today!
Three years of blogging about adventures all over the world, and no end in sight - life is beautiful.
I spent the afternoon adventuring through the bureaucracy of Turkish immigration enforcement, working on obtaining a residence permit. That's right! Next week I will officially become a legal resident of Turkey.
Last night I learned how to make hünkar beğendi - "the sultan liked it" - with a friend of mine, and needless to say this glorious recipe will someday be a favorite of my future children. Emphasis on the future part, trust me. I'd share photos but by the time we ate it was nearly 11PM and our ravished appetites trumped my desire to photograph the food…

I started a new job this past week, teaching English here in İstanbul. All is well - life is marvelous - and in case you don't believe me here's a photo from the post-final-class outing for drinks with some of my students.
Posted on August 12, 2013
One year ago today, 15 July 2012, "Gangnam Style" was released on YouTube. Today, with over 1.7 billion views, it is the most-watched video on YouTube.
On that same day I departed the United States on a plane bound for Taiwan. It was to be the beginning of an indefinite excursion abroad to live, work, and wander. 12 months, 7 countries, 10 languages, 375 students, and 21.5 books later the adventure continues.
In the past year I have…>survived monsoons in Thailand and a typhoon in Taiwan, a fever of 102ºF, the scorching heat of Thai summer and the frigid cold on a windy, snowy night at ~4500m above sea-level in the Indian Himalayas>been ordained as a Thai Buddhist forest monk>visited the epicenter of a still-evolving protest movement in Turkey>made new friends & reunited with old ones>been licensed to drive a motorbike>joined a community fast-breaking iftar meal during the Ramadan holiday>celebrated the end of Buddhist lent in Thailand, Christmas in Myanmar/Burma, New Year in Bangkok, my 23rd birthday in Chiang Mai, and the July 4th in Istanbul>observed Galungan Festival celebrations in Bali>attended a wedding, three funerals, and a hippie music festival>climbed waterfalls>swum in lakes and seas>bamboo-rafted in rivers>bathed in hot-springs>snorkeled in the ocean>climbed to mountain peaks>ridden an elephant>been a vegetarian and returned to being an omnivore>learned recipes in Thai, Indian, and Turkish cuisine>and botched them all at least once>slept in tents, houses, apartments, hostels, wooden huts, temples, airports, on planes, in an elephant observation tower, in a cave, under mosquito nets, and under the unobstructed stars>eaten lunch overlooking a volcano>sung karaoke and played soccer with Thai colleagues>and played a didgeridoo
What have I learned?I've learned that it is one's attitude and ability to accept, embrace, and affirm life that transforms confusion into curiosity, loss into opportunity, doubt into wonder, and disaster into adventure.And, perhaps more importantly: it is the people around us who enrich our lives, more than things and even experiences.Friends and family are priceless.
Thank you to all of you.

This is what I made for my dinner tonight:
Turkish köfte - marketed to tourists as "Turkish meatballs," though that doesn't really do them justice - baked (I have no grill) with green peppers and a tomato, served with bulgur rice and yogurt.
Much more of a success than last night's mac'n'cheese!
Posted on June 26, 2013
A friend of mine posted a seductively simple recipe for mac'n'cheese from scratch last week, and today I finally got around to trying it out.
The recipe called for two cups of uncooked pasta, two cups of milk, and one cup of cheese. Place all in a pan and cook. Simple.
I got overly creative and decided to improve upon the recipe before trying it as-is (an elementary mistake I love to make). I used 1 cup of cream and 1 cup of milk, instead of 2 cups of milk. I figured it would be richer and creamier if I used part cream and part milk. I was too correct, as the final product was thick and rich to the point of excess (above). I ate half of the plate you see above before conceding defeat and disposing of the remainder. I then fried some diced tomatoes & onions and with them scrambled some eggs as a plan b of sorts (below)
I will have to try the recipe again with 2 parts milk instead of substituting cream.
In other news, my Turkish course began on Monday of this week and all is well so far. I am enjoying the class and anticipate I will learn a great deal in the course of the summer.
Learned recently that my university here has a campus on the Black Sea, complete with a beach, a mere 90 minute bus-ride from my apartment.
I visited yesterday - it makes the "BU Beach" (below) back in Boston look, well, silly.

Health & Pregnancy
Complications of Chickenpox During Pregnancy
Pregnant women who have chickenpox are at risk of complications. The type of complications depend on when the infection developed during pregnancy.
- Pregnant women who have chickenpox during the first half of pregnancy may go into labor early (premature labor) or have a miscarriage.
- Pregnant women who have chickenpox in the last part of pregnancy are more likely to develop varicella pneumonia. Even a healthy pregnant woman is at risk of dying if she develops varicella pneumonia.
- Up to 2 out of 100
fetuses whose mothers have chickenpox during the first
20 weeks of pregnancy will also get chickenpox.1 This
is called congenital varicella and can cause:
- Birth defects. Birth defects can include one limb (usually a leg) smaller than the other, scars on the limbs, or eye problems such as cloudy lenses.
- Low birth weight (weigh less than expected at birth).
- Seizures. The baby can have seizures after birth.
- Intellectual disability.
- Shingles. Fetuses who have chickenpox will not have chickenpox again. But they can still have shingles, even as babies or young children.
- Death. Up to 7 out of 100 of the fetuses who get congenital varicella die.2
- Babies born within a few days of their mothers' chickenpox infection have a risk of severe chickenpox infection. These babies are at greater risk of complications from chickenpox.

Every Son Should See His Mother, Once
© Frank Westcott, 2012 All rights reserved. Written January 2012.
It was twenty years ago you passed.
I still feel badly, for the time I was late for that lunch we were to have in your chronic care home. I thought it wouldnt matter. I didnt know you ate at a specific time. And were stuck to routine. I thought we could just go down to the cafeteria when I got there, and eat.
It broke my heart seeing you crying by the cafeteria doors elevator, waiting to take you back up. You looked so frail. Beaten by life. Cancer. Arthritis. Your heart giving out.
And more.
I thought you were just having one of your crying jags.
I didnt know it was because you were afraid I wasnt coming.
I am sorry. It was my fault. It still is.
We did get to eat. They let us. Even though it wasnt your time. In the cafeteria.
I remember your eyes. Later. When I was leaving. Pausing at the door to your room. Seeing you in your bed. Your eyes were so blue. Alive
As if fuelled by some other worldly fluorescent magic. As if they were not your eyes. Or you. But another source outside you. Or strangely inside you.
Ill never forget how your eyes looked in that moment. My moment of leaving. It seemed as if you had suddenly left, too. Your body. This life. Your essence. In that moment. As if you died then. Even though. You lived. For awhile. After. It seemed as if you died then. I still think that.
I saw you once more. Well, twice, when you were in the coffin. Counting that. I got the call on the Tuesday that you had passed. I dont like Tuesdays now.

Editorial: Support pulls first nations kids through school
Vancouver Sun
The B.C. government deserves credit for the efforts it has taken to address the province's sky-high first nations dropout rate.
Its strategy — consisting of nearly $65 million-plus in extra funding, curriculum-related initiatives and personal intervention strategies — is starting to pay real dividends.
High school completion rates among B.C.'s first nations youth slowly but steadily have been improving.
While only 47.3 per cent of first nations students finished high school in the 2006-07 academic year, by last year that number had grown to 59.4 per cent.
While this certainly signals strong improvement, first nations students still have a ways to go. Last year 86 per cent of non-first nations students in B.C. graduated.
The province appears to understand the necessity of closing the gap, especially since 11 per cent of the public school population in B.C. now is aboriginal, up from about eight per cent in 2002.
Clearly these kids are going to be an important resource for B.C. But their employment prospects will be greatly influenced by how long they remain in school.
Right now, no fewer than seven job-generating energy projects are on track for development in B.C., all earmarked for land in the vicinity of 56 first nations communities. The jobless rate in these communities stands at nearly 33 per cent. Oil and gas companies typically require high school diplomas, as well as specialized skills training.
To improve employment prospects for first nations students, the province has been allocating to school districts education funding of more than $1,100 per student.
About a year and a half ago, the government appointed veteran teacher and principal DeDe DeRose, a member of the Esketmc First Nation, as B.C.'s first Superintendent of Aboriginal Achievement.
DeRose works closely with a first nations education steering committee comprised of representatives from first nations communities.
Initiatives DeRose and others are deploying involve inclusion into the curriculum of aboriginal languages, history and culture.
A number of high schools have allocated special welcome rooms, staffed by first nations support workers who provide coffee and cookies, and personalized help to students.
Vancouver's school board developed a pilot project in 2013, tracking first nations students in Grade 12, who needed an extra push to earn their high school diploma.
At Britannia secondary in Vancouver, for instance, with a large first nations student roster, the project tracked 26 students and offered them assistance such as morning wake-up calls, rides to school and tutoring.
The result? Of 26 students, 24 graduated.
In a study four years ago on strengthening first nations education, Simon Fraser University professor John Richards recommended "all aboriginal children have access to early childhood education, either on or off-reserve."
Such programs would give the youngsters a useful head start and is perhaps something the province can plan for in future as money becomes available.
But it should be recognized, B.C. stands out among the provinces as a jurisdiction that has put money where its mouth is, assiduously tackling the challenge of urging its first nations young people to stay in the classroom.

**I looked for a thread about BTIC2 and coudn't find one- I'm not 100% sure if this is the right place to post this, so i apologize in advance if i got anything wrong.**
I was wondering if anyone from the conceptart.org boards will be attending the Behind the Iron Curtain 2 workshop in Bucarest, Romania (14-17 September).
Ioan Dumitrescu (jonone) organized this event to be held at Bucarest's Sala Dalles, and the instructor list is pretty impressive:
Iain McCaig, Daniel Simon, Neville Page, Raphael Lacose, Alessandro Baldasseroni and Alex Alvarez.
You can find more info about it on the OFFICIAL SITE:
or on the FACEBOOK PAGE:
I'll be attending, and i'm hoping to do some sightseeing as well.
Is anyone else coming?
PS: looks like Palinca is a sponsor for the event...

We'll be flying from Italy on the 11th and we'll be staying here.
We'll be spending a couple of extra days in Bucarest, so if anyone has already been to Romania/Bucarest i'd be really curious to hear recommendations about things to see in the area!

Would be awesome to to get to know you guys too!
Do you know where you are going to stay?......I have two possibilties for now. The first is a bit more fancy but reasonably priced....the second is the wonderland hostel for ten euros a night. Both pretty near to the venue. (300 and 800 meters)

It was at the suggestion of Morris that De Morgan
gave up his training in fine art and started designing stained
glass. Morris, Marshall, Faulkner & Co - known as the The
Firm - had been established for two years and was very successful.
The partners boasted a wealth of talent - Philip Webb, Dante
Gabriel Rossetti, Edward Burne-Jones, and, of course, Morris.
Morgan designed stained glass, ceramic tiles and painted furniture
for The Firm between 1863-1872. He wanted, however, more control
over the finishing of his work and so built a kiln in the basement
of his home at Fitzroy Square, London.
Here he used his knowledge of chemistry and his
gift as an inventor to work on different lustres and glazes.
Unfortunately, his enthusiasm for experimentation led to a fire
which destroyed the roof, about which "the landlord did
not seem at all amiable". De Morgan moved to Chelsea and
expanded his business to include a showroom and several painters.
His fame was spreading and in 1879 he received a commission
to supply Lord Leighton with tiles to match the deep blue Islamic
tiles used in the Arab Hall at Leighton House.
In 1882 De Morgan moved to Merton Abbey on the
River Wandle, close to Morris' works and the Liberty silk dyeing
works. Other commissions followed, including tiles for the Czar
of Russia's yacht Lividia and many exotic P & O liners,
as well as the exterior and interior of Lord Debenham's home
at 8 Addison Road, London.
Morgan had an intellectually stimulating family life. His father
was a professor of mathematics and held the chair at University
College, London. His mother was a writer and a suffragette,
campaigning for women's rights and prison reform. His wife Evelyn
was a reputable artist, influenced by the pre-Raphaelites. De
Morgan gained a leaning for science from his father and was
responsible for several inventions, including a gear system
for bicycles. From his mother he inherited a gift for writing
and completed seven successful novels. The bulk of his drawings
was bequeathed by his widow to the Victoria & Albert Museum
in 1917. The collection numbers over 1,200 items - an indication
of the scale of his phenomenal talent.
Whereas some of De Morgan's flowery designs are
reminiscent of Morris, his animals are distinctly his own. They
are partly drawn from his detailed knowledge of medieval illustrated
manuscripts and partly from his vivid imagination. He and Burne-Jones
used to amuse themselves by drawing fantastic imaginary creatures
and it is thought that Charles Dodgson (Lewis Carroll) commissioned
him to design a set of tiles to illustrate his famous poem The
Hunting of the Snark. It is in such designs that we are afforded
a taste of his very special humour.

On January 9, 2007, I took the day off from work to watch Steve Jobs' keynote. I stayed off iChat, and I told the people who were likely to contact me that day to please refrain from feeding me any info on what Apple announces that morning. I waited for the video feed to become available, which happened later that afternoon. Away from my fabric-cube, Windows-based, business-software job, I ate pizza on the couch of my Florida apartment and had my mind blown by the greatest product introduction ever.
One year later, I was getting ready to quit that job. I spent my evenings working on an iPhone app, living in a house in Portland, OR with my future wife. Everything had changed for me. Everything was better. iPhone wasn't responsible for all of it, of course, but you have to understand I'm serious when I say it was responsible for well over half. When I waited ten hours in line at Portland's Apple Store that June? Guess who was right behind me: the folks from Panic Inc. You know what we talked about when they officially interviewed me for my current job, the best job in the world? iPhone apps.
That app I worked on in 2008 was an outlet for a major news organization. We got to go to WWDC 2008 with it. (This is where I met pretty much everyone I know in the Apple community.) The app was considered for a slot in the keynote, which meant my boss had to demo it for Apple execs over and over and over. Eventually they put him in front of Steve Jobs. On entering this tough room, he was greeted by Steve himself with the following words:
"I use your app every day."
I was told this story later, at the Apple Design Awards. (We won. I believe this made John Gruber exclaim that no one would get a keynote plug and an ADA ever again.) It filled me with a vicious cocktail of feelings. It was great, and it terrified me. My eyes scanned the news app with a Stevefilter now, noticing every lame compromise and rushed button I hadn't nailed with pixel precision. I was new to UI design, see; I had always wanted to design Mac apps, but it felt like a club I was too old to join. In 2007, though, I figured iPhone was new to everyone, so who was to say I didn't have the experience?
Steve used my app. It was the best and the worst. Of course you want to hear that someone big and important and smart is watching what you're doing, but there's a second meaning to that kind of attention. He was watching my every move. It was highly unlikely that a some crappy bit of UI I made would result in an email from Steve, of course. But what did happen was, I installed a sort of innerSteve, an Angel of Better telling me to make it simpler, try once more, don't forget to delight, and remember that greatness is possible.
Some time later, I worked on a twitter client with my pal Buzz. A friend of his who worked at Apple told us this little story. One day while riding the elevator at Infinite Loop, he found himself in the freakiest scenario any Apple employee can imagine: alone, with the elevator door opening to let Steve in. Being a well-adjusted individual, Buzz's friend promptly disappeared into the tap-world of his iPhone, lest he say or do something wrong in Steve's presence. It was still the early days of iPhone apps, and Steve did something that had apparently become a habit with him. He reached for the iPhone and asked,
"What app is that?"
"Birdfeed", came the reply.
Steve tapped here and there, flicked the scrollview a bit, then handed the phone back. "The background needs more texture," he said.
I'll do better next time, Steve.

Dear Readers: Last week, I wrote about teaching basic money skills to young kids. That's important, but it's even more crucial for teens to understand things like budgeting, saving and making smart spending decisions. In an uncertain economic world, these kids are going to have to take care of themselves financially. Are they being prepared? Read on for an eye-opening assessment of financial literacy in the U.S. and some ideas on how you can help your teen down the right path.
When kids first learn about addition, it can be very eye-opening. Numbers aren't just squiggles on a page; they have real meaning! So why not use this aha moment to give your kids a chance to do some practical addition and subtraction?
Renting vacation homes, or even a part of your primary residence, is becoming more common thanks to a variety of online sites that make it easy to market property and attract renters. But just because it's easier to attract renters doesn't mean there aren't other obstacles.
It's probably best to meet with a representative at your local Social Security office for help with the specifics of your situation, but I can give you some basics as a starting point.
Dear Carrie: My father had a custodial account for me, and this year, I cashed it out. My father lost money on the whole, investing more than we've gained. What are the rules for custodial account taxes? Am I able to deduct the loss on my return?

Guitar Shop in Noida - "On Stage"
Quite a spirited fellow, this friend of mine.
'Have you heard XYZ?' This went on for months.
'I can't be Hendrix if I can't play guitar! Can I be?'', my friend must have rightly told himself. So, one day, not many days ago, he got himself an old broken down guitar from a cousin of his (who, after some training, can now easily strum the great number 'My heart will Go on' on a guitar ). Next he picked up a Guitar bag from the famous Rikhi Ram of Connaught place. I had dropped the name a couple of months ago. I blame myself.
And today he asked me to pick up his fixed up guitar form a shop. I was surprised to know that the shop is in Noida. It turned out to quite a place. Rock may be dead in West but it's alive and kicking in this part of the badlands of Uttar Pradesh. Actually Rock never died in India. When Google came up with it's Google Music Trend, the now defunct feature that mixed with Gtalk to give info. about how people consumed music, one trend was quite obvious in India - boys, men and maybe some girls here in India were still getting high on an unhealthy dose of G'N'R, Pink Floyd, Metallica, Jim Morrison and other relics of musical eras gone by. And that's not all, the genre for these songs was often listed as 'Blues'. At times you could actually say, 'Hmmm...that's strangle. I have the same tracks, in same order on one of my Mp3 CD. Thanks to Pallika, the same CDs were, and may be still are, going around in the country.
That was a deliberate digression.
Back to the Guitar Shop. The place is called 'Onstage Music Factory' and its just behind the McDonald's joint of Sector 18 market of Noida.
The shop covers two floor spaces. Inside, in a corner, a lone North-East guy, the technician, was tuning and fixing up a guitar. A bunch of teenagers were there to pick up their amp. A guy with long hair, tied up into a pony, was behind the counter. Shiny guitars were hanging on the walls. The ambiance befits a guitar shop. The place offers everything that one needs to start a complete band - Guitars, Accessories, Processors, Amplifiers, Drum Kits, Mighty Bright Lights and everything in between.
The range is almost unbelievable and considering all the colleges (and offices) in this areas, its quite a location for a guitar shop. The shop opened September last year and must already be popular in the circles. On its walls are posted messages advertising requirements of drummers and rhythm guitarist; advertisements for guitar lessons and dance instructors. It may well turn into a little hub for Rock fiends of the area.
Here's the address of the Guitar Shop in Noida:
Onstage Music Factory
J-12, 1st and 2nd Floors,
Behind McDonald's,
Sector 18, Noida

They somehow managed to misplace my friend second hand guitar which he had checked in for some repair. Part of blame goes to my friend who left the guitar with them with more than two weeks and then forgit the name of the guitar and then sent me to pick it up.ReplyDelete
Much to the store's credit. It turned out well for my friend he got a brand new guitar to mess with.

Topic - Tory madness continues ...
Gordon Stainforth - on 26 Jun 2013
You can't balance the books (indeed are in deep debt) because you dislike raising taxes, so you can't provide adequate services. So what do you do? You ... freeze council tax rises for two years from 2014 (as the Americans would say, 'go figure'.) You have such a low opinion of culture, community and the quality of life that you ... cut community sports, arts and museums by 5% in 2015-16. Whatever next? My guess is that money for science will be cut too.
Some reactions (tweets etc):
'Communities budget already cut by more than 50% in real terms since 2010 - Chancellor says there is now another 10% in 2015-16.'
'Graeme Croucher, Wimbledon texts: The austerity approach was adopted in the 1930s in response to the Wall Street crash and proved to be a disaster. The eventual remedy was the Keynesian solution to spend our way out of trouble. When will our politicians learn the lessons of history? Spending is what saved the western world's economy.'

Memorial plans have been set for Spc. Brittany Gordon, the St. Petersburg soldier who was killed in Afghanistan earlier this month.
Gordon, the daughter of St. Pete Police assistant chief Cedric Gordon, was killed during a suicide bombing attack in Kandahar. We now know for sure that it was an insider attack at the hands of an Afghan soldier.
She is the first female soldier from the Tampa Bay area killed in action, in both the Iraq and Afghanistan wars.
Brittany graduated from St. Petersburg High school in 2006. She was involved in the school's band and served as captain of SPHS Varsity Women's Basketball team.
Her body will have a hero's escort from MacDill Air Force Base to St. Petersburg on Wednesday morning. A memorial will then take place at 6 p.m. Thursday night at Eckerd College's Ben Hill Chapel.
The service is open to the public. The escort will run along Bayshore in Tampa after leaving MacDill.
Here's the entire route:
North on Bayshore Boulevard
East on Platt St. Bridge
North on Florida Ave. (Left)
East on Jackson St. (Right)
North on N. Jefferson St. (Left)
East on Twiggs St. (Right)
North on Channelside Drive (Left)
East on SR 60
North on 22nd Street (Left)
West on I-4 (Left)
South on I-275

Good Questions: Stylish Organizer for Storing Ideas?
Dear AT,
My sister is doing a major renovation/remodel to her small home and is keeping all her good ideas tucked away in file folders. Do you have any recommendation for a stylish organizer that could help her keep track of all her good ideas, magazine pull outs and reno plans? I'm thinking 3-ring notebook style but am open to all good ideas!
Dear Erin,
A binder is a great idea, as it would allow your sister to flip through pages and see her images and ideas easily. Sarah blogged this idea (her personal choice) back in October. We use Real Simple's brown expanding file ($12.99), but are considering the binder idea - it seems better to avoid a lot of digging through to find what you're looking for! View the expanding file details here, and other Real Simple organizing products here.
AT readers, give Erin (and us) your suggestions!

I have hundreds, if not thousands, of pulled magazine pages, and so a binder system would be too much work. I use deep attractive boxes. There are approximately 6 design ones, organized according to the magazine they are pulled from (if I like a bedroom in a spread, chances are that I will like other rooms, to organizing by room doesn't work). Only if I am working on a project will I pull things and slip them into a plastic sleeve and binder.
I have one of those briefcase style indexes. But the idea of them in a scrapbook style is pretty neat. I find that over time some of the pages you pull no longer suit and you toss them on review. Your pile might come way down via sorting.
Inspriation is one organizational system: planning a reno or decorating project is another.
For the latter, I highly recommend a binder. Sections of it will be useful forever.
1) Dimensions and floor plans. Here you put your floor plan (cut outs for furniture can live in an envelope stapled to a page or in a page protector. If the floor plans are digital, then keep copies of the print out here.
b) rugs, lampshades, tables, cutain rods, curtains, etc., everything and anything you may need to have measurements for when you shop.
2) Colour schemes: paint swatches, fabric samples, swatches or pics or scans of actual fabric you have and want to incorporate.
3) List of repairs. Business card pages to hold business cards of people you want to interview or have interviewed to do the work. A running list is fine too.
4) Master To-Do List. (This should probably be in the front).
I have actually dismantled all my project binders, so I can't check what else may be needed, but I think if these categories are included as a start, then you'll be off and running and can include more categories as you go along.
For inspiration, I usually scan in a picture and then I write what I like about it. I keep it in a file by interest: for example, if I'm looking for "chairs and tables" that'll be the name of the document with all the pics of chairs and tables in it, explaining to myself what I like and why I like it. I never actually find exactly what I like from another source. It's always bits of this and pieces of that....
Oh, and just to make it clear--all the inspiration stuff is "filed" into the computer. I do have a couple of scrapbooks of pics cut from mags (with notes) but as that is cobbled together from stuff as I look at it--it's too cumbersome to look through when I want to JUST look at bedrooms, for example.
I recently found the Audrey File Tote, which I am in love with. I'll be picking one up for sure. I do wish they came in more sizes though (am I crazy for wanting one to accommodate 11"x17"? If you look around you can find the previous model (with brown handles), it looks a little more vintage, and thus more adorable.
Scan and post on-line, on a photo site, with comments and, if possible, tags.
Now that Wall St. bonuses are down, contractors might not turn up their nose at a moderate kitchen/bathroom job, so I'd like to incorporate the pictures into a requirements package I could discuss with an architect/designer.
One of my many fantasy projects (sigh)...
Jeni, I love the Audrey File Tote too. Russel and Hazel make lots of great beautiful binders. http://www.russellandhazel.com/shopbycolor.html
I use simple clear binders from office depot with clear page protectors. They look nice and uniform on the shelf when they are all the same. I think this is key when you will use multiple binders.
I use the binder method with clear plastic sleeves. All my binders are the same so they sit on the shelf and look somewhat attractive. I usually file my clippings every 3 mos. or so, and weed out what I no longer like or want. If you do it on a rainy or snowy day it's kind of fun. Until my clippings get filed they are are kept in a file box, filed by type of picture or article.
I use a binder with photo album pages; the kind that are self-stick with a clear sheet over them. One binder per room and also one for outdoor spaces and one for "how-to's" crafts. I go through and edit every few years as my tastes have changed. Have done this for over thirty years!
Right now i'm using a computer folder and a Muji 4 ring (bc i'm in europe) binder with sheet protectors.
However, i'm really drooling over the items at See Jane Work

Israelis rally against ultra-Orthodox extremism
Thousands of Israelis have held a rally in the town of Beit Shemesh against ultra-Orthodox Jewish extremism.
The protest followed clashes after an eight-year-old girl said she had been harassed on her way to school.
Some ultra-Orthodox in Beit Shemesh are seeking to segregate men and women.
President Shimon Peres has backed the protest, saying the "entire nation must be recruited in order to save the majority from the hands of a small minority".
He said the demonstration was a defence of the "character" of the state of Israel "against a minority which breaks our national solidarity".
'Afraid to go to school'
At the scene
By early evening thousands of demonstrators had gathered in Beit Shemesh, waving banners saying "Free Israel". People are angry at the growing influence of Israel's conservative ultra-Orthodox Jews and in particular their treatment of women.
It is a tiny minority of ultra-Orthodox who carry out such attacks. But many Israelis believe the country's character is at stake. They resent the fact that most ultra-Orthodox men don't work or serve in the army. Instead, the government gives them subsidies to carry out religious studies. One man here told me Jewish religious extremism posed a bigger threat to the country than Iran.
The Israeli government, so often critical of religious extremism in Islamic countries, has ordered a crackdown on intolerance at home. In this country there is often a debate about co-existence between Jews and Arabs. In Beit Shemesh, people were asking whether the varying strands of Judaism could co-exist.
Thousands of protesters gathered in Beit Shemesh, west of Jerusalem, on Tuesday evening.
They held signs "reading "Free Israel from religious coercion" and "Stop Israel from becoming Iran" - a reference to the Islamist republic's stringent restrictions on women's freedoms.
"This thing is really big and we're fighting for something really serious," one protester, Kinneret Havern told Reuters news agency.
The rally was addressed by opposition leader Tzipi Livni, who said the protesters were "fighting for the image of the state of Israel".
"It's not just Beit Shemesh and not just gender segregation, it's all the extremist elements that are rearing their heads and are trying to impose their worldview on us," she said.
In his statement, Mr Peres said: "No person has the right to threaten a girl, a woman or any person in any way."
Tensions have been growing in recent years between Israel's secular Jews and members of the ultra-orthodox Jews who seek an strict interpretation of religious laws.
In Beit Shemesh, where the communities live in close proximity, there have been regular protests by ultra-Orthodox men outside a religious girls school against what they say is the immodest dress of the children.
Anger spilled over after a documentary was broadcast on national TV in which one of the girls, eight-year-Naama Margolese, said she was afraid to walk to school in the town because ultra-Orthodox men shouted at her.
In October, her mother told the BBC the children were facing daily abuse which was giving them nightmares.
"Whenever she hears a noise she asks, 'are they there, are they out there?'," said Hadassah Margoleese.
Other women have reported similar incidents in the town of 100,000, some 18 miles (30km) south-west of Jerusalem.
Ultra-orthodox Jews in Israel
- Ultra-orthodox Jews account for just under 10% of Israel's population
- Rapidly growing community due to a high birth rate - meaning this proportion is set to double within next 20 years
- Beit Shemesh, which lies about 30 km (18 miles) to the west of Jerusalem, is a city of about 100,000; Ultra-orthodox Jews account for about half of the population
Sarit Ramon described the situation in the town, where religiously observant immigrants live alongside Israelis embracing a more modern lifestyle, as having been "catastrophic for years".Microcosm
Beit Shemesh resident Alisa Coleman told the BBC that she had been called a prostitute when dressed in a short-sleeved T-shirt and a skirt.
Though underlining that this behaviour was carried out by only a tiny proportion of the community, she said what was happening in Beit Shemesh was "a microcosm of what's happening in the whole country".
On Monday, one police officer was slightly hurt and a number of Orthodox Jews were detained after a group of some 300 ultra-Orthodox residents pelted police with stones and eggs in an incident reportedly triggered after police tried to remove a sign ordering segregation.
After the clashes, ultra-Orthodox activists from Beit Shemesh issued a statement condemning the violence, but also accusing the media of initiating "deliberate provocations in order to make the peaceful, quiet and tolerant residents, who live their lives according to their beliefs, look bad".
Such clashes have become more frequent in Israel in recent years as the authorities have challenged efforts by ultra-Orthodox Jews to segregate women in public places.
The BBC's Jon Donnison in Beit Shemesh says the events have highlighted what is a growing religious divide in Israel.
Ultra-Orthodox Jews make up 10% of the population in Israel. The community has a high birth rate and is growing rapidly.

The National Rifle Association didn't win many friends on Capitol Hill with a plan to install armed guards at every school in the country to prevent tragedies like the one in Newtown, Conn.
Democratic lawmakers, including some from Connecticut, condemned the idea outright. Republicans, meanwhile, were quiet Friday afternoon.
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi of California didn't watch the announcement but read Democratic Connecticut Rep. Chris Murphy's tweet: "The most revolting, tone deaf statement I've ever seen."
Rep. Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) called the proposal an "arms escalation."
"I do not believe those remarks represent anywhere near a significant portion of America," Hoyer said. "I don't believe, frankly, necessarily the majority of views of responsible members of the National Rifle Association who want guns to hunt, want guns to protect their home and their house and, yes, our children."
Connecticut Sen. Richard Blumenthal said the "NRA statement today is sadly and shamefully inadequate."
Specifically, Blumenthal said mental health, closing the gun show loophole and banning assault rifles, among other things, need to be a part of the conversation.
"The NRA will have to alter its approach if it is to be taken seriously in this national debate," he added.
Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D-Calif.), who has pledged to reintroduce the assault rifle ban in January, said the NRA offered "nothing more than a distraction."
She noted that she supports school districts that want to hire armed security guards, saying that 28,300 public schools already have armed security staff.
"We can't ignore the common denominator in all of these deadly massacres: access -- easy access to killing machines," Feinstein said.
Feinstein said Murphy has said he wants to play a major role in the assault rifle ban legislation. She also said former President Bill Clinton committed to doing anything he can to help.
While Democratic gun control advocates reacted with outrage, Republican lawmakers stayed noticeably silent. NRA head Wayne LaPierre blamed the media, the culture of violence, particularly in video games, for instigating shootings.
Sen. Barbara Boxer (D-Calif.), who recently proposed a school safety measure that would fund security upgrades for schools and trained law enforcement, said the NRA is out of touch blaming everyone but themselves.
Rep. Mike Thompson (D-Calif.), who was named by Pelosi to lead a guns task force, said the approach was misguided.
"Everyone agrees our schools, movie theaters, shopping malls, streets and communities need to be safer. But we need a comprehensive approach that goes beyond just arming more people with more guns to make this happen," Thompson said. He supports closing loopholes in the mental health system, regulating the cultural glorification of violence and improving background checks.

Task Force challenges Holsinger nomination to become U.S. surgeon general
Media Contact:
Roberta Sklar, Communications Director
(Office) 646.358.1465
(Cell) 917.704.6358
Congressional testimony by a former U.S. surgeon general who says Bush administration pressured him to suppress important public health reports is additional cause for concern
"Former Surgeon General Richard Carmona's profoundly disturbing testimony yesterday underscores why Dr. James W. Holsinger has been nominated to succeed him: The Bush administration not only expects but demands that right-wing ideology and partisan politics triumph over science and they know Dr. Holsinger will compliantly deliver."
— Matt Foreman, Executive Director, National Gay and Lesbian Task Force
WASHINGTON, July 11 — Former U.S. Surgeon General Dr. Richard Carmona told a congressional panel yesterday that top Bush administration officials repeatedly tried to suppress important public health reports because of political considerations. Carmona testified that the administration prohibited him from speaking or issuing reports on the subjects of emergency contraception, sex education, stem cells or global health issues, among other topics. In addition, Carmona said top officials tried to "water down" a landmark report on secondhand smoke and delayed it for years.
A Senate committee is scheduled to hold a hearing tomorrow on President Bush's highly controversial surgeon general nominee, Dr. James Holsinger, whose past writings and actions seriously call into question his ability to address the health needs of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender community.
According to the United States Department of Health and Human Services, the surgeon general is "America's chief health educator, giving Americans the best scientific information available on how to improve their health and reduce the risk of illness and injury." Holsinger's nomination has been widely questioned, including in editorials in The Washington Post and The New York Times. The Post called on senators "to determine — at a minimum — whether his judgment of sound science and best medical practices has improved since 1991," when he argued that gay sex was unhealthy and unnatural. The Times stated "the Senate should not confirm a surgeon general who considers practicing homosexuals abnormal and diseased."
Statement by Matt Foreman, Executive Director
National Gay and Lesbian Task Force
"Former Surgeon General Richard Carmona's profoundly disturbing testimony yesterday underscores why Dr. James W. Holsinger has been nominated to succeed him: The Bush administration not only expects but demands that right-wing ideology and partisan politics triumph over science and they know Dr. Holsinger will compliantly deliver.
"Our nation deserves better and we call upon the Senate's Health, Education, Labor and Pensions Committee to reject this shameful nomination. We also call upon Congress to pass laws that will protect all future surgeon generals from political pressure from the executive branch."
The mission of the National Gay and Lesbian Task Force is to build the grassroots power of the lesbian, gay, bisexual and transgender (LGBT) community. We do this by training activists, equipping state and local organizations with the skills needed to organize broad-based campaigns to defeat anti-LGBT referenda and advance pro-LGBT legislation, and building the organizational capacity of our movement. Our Policy Institute, the movement's premier think tank, provides research and policy analysis to support the struggle for complete equality and to counter right-wing lies. As part of a broader social justice movement, we work to create a nation that respects the diversity of human expression and identity and creates opportunity for all. Headquartered in Washington, D.C., we also have offices in New York City, Los Angeles, Miami, Minneapolis and Cambridge.

Wall Hung Toilet Frames & Concealed Cisterns
Wall mounting frames create an illusion of space in your bathroom, so they're great for en suites, cloakrooms and small bathrooms. Sleek, modern and practical, wall hung frames and cisterns make your bathroom look neater – and by lifting your toilet and basin off the floor, they make everything easier to clean too. Highly versatile; our bathroom frames can be used inside a partition wall, behind tiles or inside furniture. Read more ...
Give your Small Bathroom a Lift
If you're looking for design ideas for small bathrooms, then using a wall mounted frame is a practical option. Lifting your toilet and basin off the ground makes a smaller room appear more spacious – which can be useful in the family bathroom, en suite or the downstairs cloakroom. Consider using bathroom furniture too, to combine storage space around your basin and toilet installation.
Fitting your new wall mounted toilet and concealed cistern with a wall mounted frame, helps to achieve a neat appearance. The dual-flush cistern and frame will be completely hidden behind the wall, meaning that your WC appears to be floating off the ground. This clever illusion is extremely modern and will add a contemporary finish to your bathroom.
Low Maintenance Bathrooms
Fitting wall mounted basin and WC frames creates a bathroom which is low maintenance. It's much easier to keep your bathroom clean if you eliminate the bendy pipework and nooks and crannies found with floor-standing pieces. Wall mounted frames help to increase the amount of floor space too – which is ideal if you'd like extra storage or just prefer that minimalist look.
Our extensive collection of bathroom frames for toilets and basins are sure to suit a variety of installations. Our wall mounting basin frame is compatible with all of our wall mounted basins – which can be fitted with a semi pedestal or bottle trap to suit a multitude of personal tastes. The toilet frame and concealed cistern is compatible with all our wall mounted toilets which are to be fitted directly onto the wall without furniture.
If you'd like to know more about wall hung frames and cisterns, or you're unsure which frame is best suited to your basin and WC, then take a look at our Frames Buying Guide for helpful tips and advice. If you need any advice before placing your order, then call us free on 0800 954 1646 or drop us an email at email@example.com.

Come check out a exhibition I've been working really hard on. :)
Times Square Show Revisited
On view at The Bertha and Karl Leubsdorf Art Gallery at Hunter College
September 14 – December 8, 2012
Opening Reception September 13, 6-8 PM
The Hunter College Art Galleries are pleased to present Times Square Show Revisited, an in-depth look at the original Times Square Show, on view from September 14-December 8, 2012. Times Square Show Revisited is the first focused assessment of the landmark 1980 exhibition organized by the artist group Collaborative Projects, Inc.
The Times Square Show, hailed by the Village Voice as "The First Radical Art Show of the '80s," included some one hundred artists and sprawled across four floors and the basement of a disused massage parlor on the corner of 41st Street and 7th Avenue in New York City. In addition to experimental painting and sculpture, the exhibition incorporated music, fashion, and an ambitious program of performance and video. For many artists, such as Kiki Smith, Jenny Holzer and Tom Otterness, the exhibition served as a forum for the exchange of ideas, a testing-ground for work in progress, and a catalyst for exploring new artistic directions.
With contributions from over 40 artists of the more than 100 originally participating, Times Square Show Revisited reflects the spirit of the original with a mix of extant sculpture, painting, and video—most of which has not been on public view since 1980. The show features rarely-seen photography, archival material, and ephemera documenting the crucial role of performance, fashion, and music at the Times Square Show.
Times Square Show Revisited is curated by Shawna Cooper, post-war art historian and graduate of the Hunter College Master's Program in Art History, in association with Karli Wurzelbacher, also a Hunter alumnae and a PhD candidate in twentieth-century American art at the University of Delaware. The exhibition is accompanied by a catalogue and comprehensive website, which include extensive interviews with the participants in the original exhibition. In addition, a lively schedule of public programming will accompany the chronicle of this groundbreaking exhibition.
A partial list of artists represented in Times Square Show Revisited includes Charlie Ahearn / John Ahearn /Jules Allen / Beth B / Scott B / Jean-Michel Basquiat / Marc Blane / Caterina Borelli / Andrea Callard / Eva DeCarlo / Jane Dickson / Coleen Fitzgibbon / Bobby G / Matthew Geller / Mike Glier / Ilona Granet / Mimi Gross / Keith Haring / Julie Harrison / Jenny Holzer / Becky Howland / Francene Keery / Justen Ladda / Aline Mare / Alan Moore / Tom Otterness / Cara Perlman / Judy Rifka / Walter Robinson / Christy Rupp / Kenny Scharf / Terise Slotkin / Jane Sherry / Jack Smith / Kiki Smith / Wolfgang Staehle / Kathleen Thomas / Diane Torr / Rigoberto Torres / Robin Winters.
Times Square Show Revisited is made possible through the generous support of Diane and Arthur Abbey, Richard Anderman, the David Bershad Fund, Hester Diamond, Barbara Grodd, the Agnes Gund Exhibition Fund, Nancy Kuhn and Bernard Nussbaum, Tony Shafrazi, the Solo Foundation, Sunberry's Café, and an anonymous donor.
Times Square Show Revisited will be on view from September 14-December 8, 2012 at the Bertha and Karl Leubsdorf Art Gallery, 68th street and Lexington Avenue, SW corner. A special opening reception will be held on September 13 from 6-8pm. More information about the exhibition can be found at www.timessquareshowrevisited.com

I gave the blog a little makeover today. What do you think?
I'm not a big fan of change. In fact, I downright resist it.
But when it comes to playing with graphic design and HTML I can't seem to help myself!
Ooooh! It's totally cute! It really seems lighter and brighter and I like how it showcases your projects! :) Very good job!ReplyDelete
I like it! :)ReplyDelete
Ooooh! I love it! That background is so great! I agree with Erin - nice and light!! And the pictures on the side are great!ReplyDelete
Super cute and very tasteful!ReplyDelete
It is great! I applaud yo for playing with html...I am a chicken.ReplyDelete
It is so pretty! I love the little pictures on the sides and the colors. It looks fabulous!ReplyDelete
WOW!! I do love the lightness of the layout. Plus, I love that you have spotlighted some of your amazing projects!! Awesome!!ReplyDelete
Thank you for commenting! I read each and every comment I receive and try to respond back if I can. Thanks for stopping by!

The US space agency (Nasa) has launched an atmospheric test vehicle that looks every inch like a flying saucer.
In reality, the Low Density Supersonic Decelerator (LDSD) is a demonstrator for the type of technologies humans will need to land on Mars. The LDSD has been sent into the stratosphere via a balloon off Hawaii.
It will trial a new type of parachute and an inflatable Kevlar ring that can help slow down a spacecraft as it approaches the Red Planet's surface.
Nasa says it is trying to raise the current maximum mass that can be put on Mars from 1.5 tonnes to something nearer the 20-30 tonnes a human mission might require.
Ian Clark, the LDSD's principal investigator told BBC News: "We're testing technologies that will enable us to land bigger payloads, much heavier payloads, at higher altitude and with more accuracy than we've ever been able to do before."
The experiment was launched from the US Navy's Pacific Missile Range Facility in Kauai, Hawaii.

Inflammation Research
Unlike cells within solid tissues, circulating lymphocytes and other leukocytes continuously migrate and relocate during the course of immune reactions. A subset of integrins (LFA-1, Mac-1, and VLA-4) are expressed on immune cells and play a major role in regulating recruitment of immuno-competent cells to normal or damaged and infected tissues. Under a wide range of pathologic conditions such as autoimmune disease, chronic inflammation, and transplantation rejection, integrin activations are mis-regulated resulting in abnormal leukocyte trafficking, and direct damage to the vasculature and the underlying host tissue.
Understanding how T cells and neutrophils home to and migrate within tissues is a major focus of our research.
