Two kind-hearted cafe owners are holding a fundraising day to help a little boy with a skull disorder.
Caroline and Gary Overton, owners of the Overton Bridge End Cafe, Brighouse, are hoping to raise much needed funds for Toby-James Barnfather.
One-year-old Toby-James was born with plagiocephaly, commonly known as 'flat head syndrome', which occurs when the head is flattened on one side.
The condition affects around 47 per cent of babies, but reconstructive treatment through a special helment is not available on the NHS as it is classed as cosmetic.
Toby-James' mum, Shantelle Hirst, 28, and partner John-Michael Barnfather, 27, of Crowtrees Lane, Rastrick, have worked tirelessly to raise they money they need.
One scan alone can cost around £200, but Caroline and Gary, from Brighouse, now hope they can help the family out.
Caroline, 48, said: "They came into the cafe and we saw Toby had a helmet on, at first we thought it was a play helmet, but then realised it was for a need he had.
"Because it's classed as cosmetic he can't get any help, so I said 'we can do something'. You don't need to know someone to give them help."
"On the day, there will be name the teddy bear, raffles and colouring for the children, we really just want people to come down to meet Toby and his mum."
And it's a cause close to Gary's heart, as his daughter died of a brain tumour when she was just eight years old.
Gary added: "I know how hard it is when your child is disabled and when you see someone like that, it's nice to do something to help."
The money raised will go towards Toby-James' scans and the rest of the money needed for the helmet.
And although Caroline and Gary's offer was a surprise to Shantelle, she couldn't be happier.
The mum-of-three said: "I was shocked, I didn't know what to stay and I still don't.
"Gary and Caroline were strangers but now I feel like I have some lifelong friends."
The fundraising day will be held on Saturday at the Overton Bridge End Cafe, Bridge End, from 10am until 1pm.

Health Science Pre-Podiatry
The combined Bachelor of Science/Doctor of Podiatric Medicine (BS/DPM) program between the University of Hartford and New York College of Podiatric Medicine (NYCPM) provides a unique opportunity for students with career goals in podiatry. The accelerated program typically allows for the completion of the BS/DPM degrees in a seven-year period. The BS/DPM program is for the academically outstanding student with strong, realistic motivation toward the podiatric profession. Initial study at the University of Hartford allows the student to complete the general education and basic science requirements for the BS in health science degree and the prerequisites necessary for professional study. The BS degree is awarded by the University of Hartford following the successful completion of the first year of graduate study. Students who are not in the accelerated program typically complete the BS degree in four years at the University of Hartford.
The podiatry program requires four years of combined academic and clinical training leading to the DPM degree, which is a prerequisite for licensure eligibility in the United States. The New York College of Podiatric Medicine provides students with an accredited four-year professional podiatry curriculum.
Accreditation: The University of Hartford is accredited by the Board of Higher Education of the State of Connecticut and by the New England Association of Schools and Colleges (NEASC). The New York College of Podiatric Medicine (NYCPM) is accredited by the Council on Podiatric Medical Education (CPME). NYCPM is chartered by the regents of the University of the State of New York and is authorized to award the degree of Doctor of Podiatry.

Turin Shrouds Its Magic, Black and White, in Plain Sight
Sunday, July 29, 2007
Turin is a magical city -- but not the kind of magic one associates with dreamy fantasylands or Disney. Case in point: In a candle-lit wine bar in the Quadrilatero Romano, a buddingly hip district for wining and dining in central Turin, two 20-something locals were trying to show me which city landmarks can be connected to make up a Satanic pentagram. A growing chorus of dissenters began to surround our table, everyone throwing out their own versions of the five-pointed star.
Finally, the bartender, shaking his finger at us, silenced everyone. "No, no, no! The Mole isn't part of the pentagram," he said, referring to the 530-foot spire-like tower that dominates the city's skyline, as he came around the bar and grabbed the pen out of my hand. After drawing lines on my map between squares, churches and monasteries to form a five-pointed star, he handed the pen back to me and said, "There. You want another glass of Barolo?"
Even though I have traveled from the tip to the top of the boot several times, Turin had never been on my radar. Maybe it was its location, wedged up against the Alps in the northwest corner of Italy. Or perhaps it was the off-putting appellation "the Detroit of Italy" that always had me traveling in the opposite direction. Despite Turin being the home of writer Primo Levi, the birthplace of vermouth and the headquarters of the Slow Food movement (in nearby Bra), I've always eschewed the place for more obvious Italian locales.
But the city is more than a series of Fiat plants (that are now being converted into industrial-chic shopping malls and hotels, by the way). Beyond Turin's grand squares, 10 miles of arcaded walkways and elegant Baroque palaces, one barely needs to scratch the surface to discover what some people see as the city's intriguing supernatural side. I quickly learned (from about every local I spoke to) that Turin lies on the axis of white magic (along with Lyon, France, and Prague) and the axis of black magic (which it shares with London and San Francisco), making it one powerful place, if you believe in that stuff. Regardless, the legion of devilish faces carved into the sides of palaces, mysterious sundials painted on the sides of churches, and Masonic symbols scattered throughout the historical center makes for an intriguing walk around town.
After finishing off my glass of ruby-red Barolo, I thanked my new friends and headed for the Gates of Hell. Piazza Statuto, an oval-shaped square on the western periphery of the historical center, is the starting point for a popular guided tour called Magic Turin, which takes visitors to sights related to the city's supernatural side.
My guide, Emanuela (who was not clad in Goth gear, by the way), commenced the tour in front of the small pond that lies next to an art deco, pyramid-shaped monument on the square. The monument, topped by a dark angel who hovers above graceful sculptures of men trying to reach the top, is a memorial to the workers who died building the Frejus Train Tunnel, which finally linked Italy to France by rail. For others, according to my guide, it's a clue to what lies beneath: the Gates of Hell. The esoteric symbols (that it's a pyramid, apparently, is one tip-off) and the five-pointed star at the top of the angel's head hint at something darker. "Many people believe the angel is Satan himself," she added.
"However you interpret this monument," Emanuela said, "there's no denying that on and around this square, bad things have happened." The Roman and medieval-era gallows are just beyond the square, and the ground we stood on is a millenniums-old necropolis, the Romans adhering to the Egyptian concept that the west, where the sun sets, is the most appropriate place to bury the dead.
We had begun our tour on the dark side of town, but once we hit the plus-size Piazza Castello, Emanuela announced we'd crossed over. "Here, supposedly, is the highest concentration of positive energy -- mostly because of the Shroud." Of course, she was talking about the famed Shroud of Turin, the cloth that many believe covered the body of the crucified Jesus Christ. Pointing to an iron gate that separates the square from the grounds of the ornate Royal Palace, Emanuela said the Shroud was publicly displayed here. (It's now housed in the nearby Duomo.)
Then she nodded to a sculpture with a five-pointed star on its head at the top of the gate, which was reminiscent of the one atop the Frejus Tunnel pyramid back at Piazza Statuto. "Note the direction the figure is looking in," Emanuela said. "Many people believe this figure -- a symbol of white magic -- is looking toward the image of Lucifer back on Piazza Statuto. Their eyes are meeting, and good and evil marry together. It's like Turin itself, a duality of good and bad; one cannot exist without the other."
Throughout the Magic Turin tour, my guide kept referring to the books of a local writer named Giuditta Dembech. And so the next day I went to see her.
Sitting in her historical center apartment crammed with crystals and images of angels, Dembech tried to explain the complex theory about energy and its relation to Turin. According to Dembech, there are parallel lines running up and down the Earth that produce energy. Sometimes the natural landscape -- mountain ranges, for example -- can block the energy from escaping. But in some cases, particularly in places that are rich in granite, the energy flows out of the Earth like a spring.
"Just look on a map," she said. "There are a lot of spiritual places that follow this same line -- Stonehenge, Turin, Jerusalem and Mecca."

He's Baaaaawk!
While feeding the sheep and making sure everyone was buttoned up for the night this evening, I heard a very familiar, albeit longtime-not-heard, sound coming from behind me. "Hmm, hmm, clack. Hmm, hmm, clack."
It wasn't very loud. I think only someone who was familiar with the voice would have recognized it. As I slowly turned around I just had to smile. My old friend, Bran (pronounced "Brawn") was back! He disappeared just before I was to have surgery this past June. I would always ask my DH if he had seen him when he would come in from sheep and chicken chores. Nope. Not even a hint of a feather. He was gone all summer.
I suppose he was off doing Raven-things. He had brought both the Mrs. and the kids to see me shortly before he took off. I can only hope he and his family were "summering" somewhere nice. Were they on the beaches in the Virgin Islands? South America? Did he finally take them to Disneyland? I will have to ask my friend. Most likely he will not say a word about vacation, but instead ask if there have been any changes to the menu. Do I still serve animal cookies and eggs? What about the odd kitchen scrap? And are those freshly caught mice still on the menu? I will have to tell him that he'll have to discuss the mouse situation with Josie and Toadie.
I'm glad to see my friend again. I stood for awhile by the gate, himself on the nearby post, trying to mimic his soft call to me back to him as we've always done. He seemed pleased that I would remember what to say. And as I placed a few animal cookies where he usually ate them, I noticed he had brought the Mrs. with him again. She just looked puzzled at the both of us, at our strange conversation we had going. They stayed close by until I went towards the house to come in for the evening.
Goodnight, my friend. I am so glad to see you again! I'll see you in the morning...Winter hours now, Bran...let me have at least one cup of coffee before I have to come out and break ice.

Glad you are able to welcome an old friend home. Looks like I'll be saying good-bye to one very soon. Probably not much communication from here for awhile; everything is getting too soggy....

How cool is THAT??? !
- Val said...
Hi I wonder if it was him and the Mrs and the kids I saw that day, but we will never know. I am glad he has returned and no doubt he will stay around for the winter for the titbits he knows you will provide thats great
- I need orange said...
I saw lots of ravens in Alaska. Maybe that's where he went. I had a conversation with one, a polite exchange of "gloop"s......... So maybe it was your friend, accustomed to talking with people.

Wow, what a neat bird. You have such interesting visitors down there.

Academics have always had a hard time accepting the service academies even when they work for them. Bruce Fleming has taught English at the Naval Academy for more than two decades and makes no secret of his animosity towards his employer of record. "It's clear that we don't need the academies in their current form—versions of a kind of military Disneyland," Fleming writes in The Chronicle Review. "These institutions do produce some fine officers, even some leaders."
"But the students I respect the most tell me that those who succeed do so despite the institutions, not because of them." Dr. Fleming points out that one-fifth of today's military officers come from the service academies.
Moreover, "Another officer-production pipeline is Officer Candidate School, which is about as large a source of officers as the academies," Fleming notes." It gives a six- to 12-week training course for mature enlistees and college graduates who paid for their educations on their own (that is, did not participate in ROTC), and it costs taxpayers almost nothing."
"It could be expanded by pitching it to college students who might want to become officers when they graduate." He also claims that ROTC programs are a steady, if not more reliable, source of military officers: "Between 1972 and 1990 (these are the latest figures available), the percentage of admirals from ROTC climbed from 5 percent to 41 percent, and a 2006 study indicated that commissioning sources were not heavily weighted in deciding who makes admiral."
Fleming argues that ROTC is "a federal program that produces officers—an average of twice as many as those who go to the academies (three times for the Army)—at a quarter of the cost." We pointed out to him that near as we can figure, only a quarter of colleges and universities have ROTC.
"We would have to beef up ROTC by 50%," he admitted. "A combination of new programs and enlarged existing programs seems plausible."
"ROTC has been enlarged regularly for the last few decades; it can be enlarged more."
Fleming is an interesting character, an actual independent thinker who doesn't mind upsetting his associates whether it is politically correct to do so or not. He came out for a "realistic" approach to the question of homosexuality in the military, or as he puts it an "adult" solution that pretty much involves acceptance of lifting the ban on service.
Nevertheless, he has been fairly implacable in his opposition to so-called "affirmative action" programs in admissions to the academy.

I may get round to reviewing The Mars Volta, Dinosaur Jr, Sonic Youth and Placebo, but as you can read about all of these in a fair few other places I thought I'd concentrate on a couple of months worth of free music (all licensed under Creative Commons so download away).
The Sound of Music by Pinkle
I like this a lot. It's lazy, charming and creative indie music, and fits the mood of a summer week off work perfectly. I've just downloaded two more albums in the hope that they are at least half as good (see http://www.jamendo.com/en/artist/Pinkle for a full catalogue of releases). I'd buy "The Sounds of Music" and will certainly be trying to find out more about the artist (EDIT: I've now found a website at http://www.pinklemusic.com which explains more).
Dinner for One by Amity in Fame
Quite heavy, in a largely acoustic way (in the same was the new Mars Volta album is). I like this, and have found that it has got better with each listen. The only downside is that I've not wanted to play it from end to end for reasons I can't quite put my finger on. Certainly a burn it, although the title track in particular I'd pay for.
Animals are People Too by The Wind Whistles
A record I waited over a year for, and one which has not disappointed. The songs are shorter than the last album, but there are more of them and they have a more indie rock feel to them. None of these are a bad thing, and I would gladly file it next to "Window Sills", which has been played a very large number of times over the last year.
A British melodic indie group who come from Birkenhead, and sound a lot like Muse to my ears. This is not a bad thing as such, and they certainly have a sound (and in particular a singer) that could take them places. I like this, but it doesn't tell me anything new about the world or myself, but I'm more than happy to listen to their songs when they appear on my playlist.
2 Days a Night by The Liquid Kitchen
I downloaded this a while ago, and listened to it a fair bit on my way to and from work. To my ears they sound a lot like Neil Young fronting a bar band, and I really have to remind myself on occasions that I'm not actually listening to Neil Young. Great if that is what you are after, but it seems like this really is their only trick and I'm not sure it would stretch to a second album without an input of new ideas. Worth a download though.
Born in the USB by William Doyle
I downloaded this for the title alone, but the music itself is rather fine too. It's indie with a slight psychedelic edge, and opening track "Beneath the Soil" is possibly my favourite song of the last few weeks. It tails off a bit towards the end, but still warrants a good few listens.

Feature of the Week: Save Your Searches
As a Salesperson, one of your main goals is to cut out the "busy work" and get to the point… Selling!
Here's a tip where you can do exactly that. We want to remind you about the "Saved Search" function on our emails page. Since copy/pasting is for amateurs, here's a way to remember searches that you're often looking up.
Some examples where you'd use this:
- To always get a quick macro view of all of the people that are highly engaged, but have yet to respond to your emails. (Views, Clicks, and obvious interest but No Response).
- If you're sending group emails, you can save your search for that specific group and filter by engagement level.
- Managers can filter by emails sent across the team, and quickly look up reps. (ie. Which templates did Brittany use, and what was her engagement this week?)
- When you want to quickly filter a person or company by time, and find yourself doing this often. ( Yesterday, Last week, 90 Days, etc.)
- Filtering your "successes." Whether you define success as getting a meeting, a response, or closing a deal, you can use saved searches to quickly do this. (Also helps you see engagement on a macro level)
- When you want to quickly see which activity has "no activity." Since you're not going in blindly, you can stop communication/wasting time if there isn't any traction with a lead.
- If you're testing your messaging, you can look up the contacts or groups you want to do so.
- You want to find groups that have certain criteria for automated drip campaigns .

Linux Utilities - Linux File Sharing Over Network Computers Using scp And rsync
In this article we shall discuss about two powerful Linux utilities that are used for sharing file/folder to network computers that are scp and rsync. scp allows you to simply copy directories or files from/to any remote destination whereas the rsync, besides simply copying files also acts as a synchronising tool that would synchronise the changes between source and destination. The discussion below is about their usage and various parameters that can be used along with to increase speed and security.
What Is SCP?
The SCP is a network protocol based on the BSD, RCP protocol. It supports file transfer over a network computers using Secure Shell (SSH). With SCP a client can send files to another client or server on the same network. It can also request or Download files from a server.
If user wants to share multiple files over a network computer then there are two ways to accomplish that. User can either specify each file in the command and then provide the destination path. The second method is that user can save all the files in one folder and can share the entire folder over the network computer. Both the methods have been mentioned below. You can use anyone you like.
Install OpenSSH Server In Linux
OpenSSH is required for doing Linux data transfer over network. I noticed that it's not already installed in some Linux distributions so in that case, the commands result in errors. So install OpenSSH server before you go ahead and share files using SCP.
Install OpenSSH Server
Syntax - How To Share Files Over A Network Computer?
SCP Syntax
Example - If you want to share a file name "myMovieList.txt" to a remote host(192.168.1.102), you can use the following command based on the above syntax.
SCP Linux File Sharing
To copy file from remote machine to your local machine
Copy file from remote machine to local machine
To copy multiple files, provide space separated list of files and at the last destination path
SCP - Copy multiple files
Using SCP Parameters For More File Sharing Options
You can use scp command with certain optional parameters that help you in faster copying and/or secure data transfer.
r : To copy directory you have to use parameter r to recursively copy the contents.
The r command makes it very simple to transfer multiple files contained in a single folder. It's one of the best methods to do quick and secure Linux file sharing over network computers.
'r' Parameter to copy folder to a host computer
P : To send out file on machine with different port
By default, scp shares file over network computers through port 22. In many cases, you would want to use another port then you can P parameter to use another port for folder sharing.
'P' Parameter to share files on host computer through a different port
c : Change Encryption algorithm
By default, scp uses Triple-DES cipher to encrypt data before transferring it. You can use other ciphers like blowfish (which has higher performance over default one).
'c' Change Encryption Algorithm
C : To transfer even faster you can use compression parameter that would compress the data while transferring and auto decompress it on the destination.
NOTE: No need to decompress the file on the destination.
What Is rsync?
Rsync is helpful in sharing files annd folders and synchronising files and folders. Unlike SCP, rsync transfers only differences between source and destination files/folders. It uses compression and decompression by default and hence is faster than SCP. Once you get familiar with it, it'll save your a lot of time.
Install rsync In Linux
Install rsync in Linux
Syntax To Sync Folder Between Network Computers
With rsync user can synchronize two folders existing over network computers. To transfer/sync folder from local to remote host, use the following command -
Sync folder using rsync
[a and r params preserve timestamp, owner, links etc and recursively syncs the files respectively].
List of optional parameters are:
-z : compress data.
-a : preserve links, owner, timestamp etc.
-r : recursive.
--progress: show progress while transferring.
--include and --exclude : include or exclude pattern or files.
only rsync files/folders starting with S.
--delete : delete the directory if it doesn't exist at source but exists at the destination.
--max-size : max transfer size limit. [eg: --max-size='2000k']
--remove-source-files : remove files at source after sync
--bwlimit : limit bandwidth for transfer [--bwlimit=1000] (limit by 1000 bps)
If you are unsure of rsync command result, you can also do dry run with command : --dry-run.
Both the linux utilities are useful in sharing files over network computers. rsync being more efficient since it transfers only differences and compressed data by default. That's all for now. You can explore man pages for more. Do leave suggestions, comments or questions in the comment section below.

a wake up call....literally.
Smith is a month old now and he is such a sweet baby. He is doing really well and has been such a blessing. Thursday night we had a really rough night. Smith was having a tummy ache and was very uncomfortable. As his mother, I felt that I should know just what to do to comfort him. I wanted him to feel better...AND I wanted to go to sleep.
Reed and I know that we are very lucky that Smith has only had 2 restless nights in his first month of life, but I felt so helpless and nothing I did seemed to comfort him. We rocked, we put Smith in his swing, we tried it all. He was just so uncomfortable that he could not sleep. So finally, as a last resort... at 3:30 am Reed put him in his car seat, stuck it in the stroller and strolled him around the living room! He fell fast asleep, so we just rolled the stroller into our room, and Smith slept soundly for about an hour and a half right next to our bed...in the stroller! What ever works, huh? Unfortunately, I had to get up and go to the store that morning. After less than 2 hours of sleep I was dreading this day and everything about it. My body and my mind were tired. The feeling of exhaustion was overwhelming and I was not sure I could make it through the day....

its RED....today at least
Whether or not Smith is going to have have RED hair has been a big mystery! It really looks like it is light brown in person, but I took these pictures of him today and it is SO red! There is no question that he is a redhead in these pics, so I guess as he grows and changes, we will just have to wait and see!

Vectren Site Up and Operational!
Here's hoping that you'll enjoy the 13-month long project known as Vectren. Judge the game on how addictive and repeat-playable it is. That would make our day (and not in a Clint-Eastwood-kind-of-way)!
Hats off to the Vectren folk (Maelynn Hudson, Tracy Bryant, et. al)for being quite innovative in their pursuit of a better, original game in a time where most corporations fear such things. I mean really, HATS OFF! Looking at how many people it took to make this work - well, it's just staggering. Here's the short list:
Jennifer Stewart - Concept and Head of the Whole Enchilada! (She would be the executive producer, but in academia it's called something different)
Chris Basham - Website Design, programming, and layout
Matt Powers - Concept and Programming Lead. (Matt was our "X factor"!)
Don Mitchell - programming consultant
Kyle McKnight - head programmer
Corey Callahan - programming
Zach Carr - programming
Skip Comer - Database Lead
Me - Concept and Art Direction
Trevor Barger - animation
Sean Winburn - illustration
Jackie Crofts - illustration
Linda Vang - concepting
Ryan Stone - production
Ricardo Laranja - sound direction
In fact, feel free to leave a comment right here, on this blog, giving us your thoughts.

I've a new place to visit!
I'm rather excited about this new blog, Pencil Test Depot
Also, the Vectren Project is temporarily posted, but will soon have a permanent residence. Check it out, play the games, and post some feedback (cause we DO need troubleshooting help).

Weiner expected to plead guilty in 'sexting' case
New York (CNN)Former Rep. Anthony Weiner will enter a guilty plea to a single charge of transferring obscene material to a minor, a spokesman for a law firm representing Weiner said Friday.
Devlin-Brown is expected to comment outside the courthouse afterward.
Schaefer would not confirm if the plea was part of a deal and did not provide further details about the case.
CNN, citing law enforcement officials, reported last September that prosecutors in the office of then-US Attorney Preet Bharara issued a subpoena for Weiner's cell phone and other records as part of an investigation into alleged "sexting" with a purportedly underage girl.
The allegations first surfaced in the Daily Mail.
The online sexting relationship allegedly went on for months between Weiner and a girl claiming to be just 15. The Daily Mail reported she said he sent her numerous photos, one of him in a pool and at least one bare-chested.
The outlet reported that the girl said she reached out to Weiner last January on Twitter.
In a statement to CNN at the time, Weiner neither confirmed or denied sending the texts.
"I have repeatedly demonstrated terrible judgment about the people I have communicated with online and the things I have sent. I am filled with regret and heartbroken for those I have hurt," he said.
Weiner continued: "While I have provided the Daily Mail with information showing that I have likely been the subject of a hoax, I have no one to blame but me for putting myself in this position. I am sorry."
CNN was unable to confirm at the time that it was a hoax.
Weiner left Congress in June 2011 when sexually-charged, sometimes explicit, texts with women other than his wife first emerged. His social media habits continued after leaving Congress and contributed to his poor showing with his 2013 New York City mayoral campaign, a race in which he had once been a leading contender.
Weiner is estranged from Huma Abedin, a top aide to former Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton. A message left with a representative for Abedin seeking comment Friday morning was not immediately returned.

Fight for 15 is organizing fast food and other low-wage workers to strike on November 10 (Tuesday) in 270 US cities. Actions will include picketing at stores and city halls. The 10th was picked because it's exactly one year before the election.
After the one-day strike, the SEIU-funded group will push the 68 million workers who make less than $15/hour to register to vote and then actually go to their polling place next year.

The China Institute Young Associates, an organization comprised of students and young professionals, hosted "Night of Fashion: Then & Now", where they fascinated fashion enthusiasts with traditional Chinese dresses tempered by the contemporary styles of four rising stars in the fashion world – Asian-American designers Ann Yee, Arbitrage, Cody Sai, and Janet Zheng.
CUE Art Foundation, located in the heart of Chelsea, provided the venue for this evening of fashion. The event's unique theme was to showcase the Chinese cultural evolution from the costumes of the Zhou dynasty, the longest dynasty in China's history, starting roughly in 1046 BC and lasting through 246 BC, to the 21st century. The new, young Asian-American trendsetters brought a fresh look to old styles, some showcasing pieces from their 2011 lines.
Food, libations, and flashing cameras circulated throughout the entire night. The guests were delighted by an endless stream of cocktails and a variety of dim sum. Goodie bags filled with Popchips, the new fad in healthy junk food, as well as copies of our very own Asian Fusion magazine. Designer Cody Sai entertained the evening's event guests in addition to the catwalk surprises.
Clothing was not the only aspect of fashion being showcased during the event. The high-contrast white space provided a simple, yet fabulous background for accessories as well as clothing. From the row of seating lining the runway, guests could stay close to the action and still be able to see the additional wares available. Ken + Dana design, an NYC-based design collective exploring the art and language of body decoration, showcased an extensive array of fashionable jewelry to accompany the clothing alongside the runway. The glittery gems and baubles caught the eye of not only the audience and press, but designers gravitated towards the one-of-a-kind designs, perhaps finding inspiration for a future clothing creation.
The evening's crowning jewel from the historical lineup was a traditional Chinese wedding gown embroidered with silver and gold thread. While guests and press alike were attracted to the wide variety of historical Chinese fashion from the Zhou Dynasty through to the Early Republic period, the highlight of the night were the young Asia- American designers' clothing lines. It began with Cody Sai's pieces: a casual, ready-to-wear line, focusing on subtle details, comfortable fabrics, and natural colors, and proved just as relaxed and beautiful as the show itself. Janet Zheng's refined, yet avant-garde menswear followed in quick succession. After Arbitrage showed off the best-fitting and most flattering dress shirts for all body types, which come with exceptional customer service from their FIT experts, the show closed with architectural cuts juxtaposed against soft draping women's wear by Ann Yee. Ms. Yee's line was visually provocative, yet completely wearable!
Everyone in attendance made use of the opportunity to enjoy the emerging designer's big night firsthand. Models and designers mingled with the guests, chattering away until the lights went out, signaling the end of the evening. A successful, fashion-filled and educational night was had by all.

Happy Friday, friends! This week has flown by and I couldn't be happier. I'm looking forward to a couple days off of work. Corey's parents will be coming into town later tonight and before they arrive I'll be stopping by the Lilly Pulitzer store at Southpark Mall for a styling party hosted by the lovely Caitlin. Today I'm linking up with April, Christina, Natasha, and Darci for another fabulous Friday. I'm currently loving...
1. Extra sleep. The number one thing I'm loving is sleeping a little later tomorrow and Sunday. Y'all - I am exhausted! I have circles under my eyes that rival the worst of bruises from too much work and too little sleep the last couple weeks.
5. Fall TV. I am so happy that Fall TV has returned. I was so excited to watch Grey's last night and am looking forward to the return of Scandal and Revenge over the next week, too. What fall TV shows are you looking forward to?
Happy Friday, girls!

Synthesis of Merrilactone
Posted by naturalproductman on October 22, 2010
Michael Greaney and co-workers at the University of Edinburgh have published on the racemic synthesis of merrilactone. One of the highlights is a radical cascade that involves the use of a titanium reagent on an epoxy alkyne substrate, which undergoes an epoxide opening and a 5-exo dig cyclization.

3 Tricks To Blow Drying Your Hair In Half The Time

In November, Republican U.S. Rep. Dave Reichert could be unseated by challenger Darcy Burner in their suburban Seattle district. He might also hang on.
Whatever happens, though, there's also a decent chance that Reichert's bill to designate a new swath of national forest as wilderness east of Seattle could prevail before year's end, says Nick Rahall, the Democratic chairman of the House Natural Resources Committee.
Speaking at the just-concluded annual conference of the Society of Environmental Journalists in Roanoke, Va., Rahall said he fears what the Bush adminstration will do before Inauguration Day:
There's going to be a lot of harmful things done.
But at the same time, he said House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid have agreed to call a lame-duck session of Congress after Nov. 4. Part of it will be to deal with building "green infrastructure," Rahall said.
In addition, he said there's a good chance a bunch of bills already passed by the House to create Congressionally protected wilderness will finally win approval by, as Rahall calls the Senate, "the other body."
Recall that a wilderness designation means no mining, no road-buiding, no logging, no ATVs or other motor-powered transportation. A single senator, Republican Tom Coburn of Oklahoma, has used the rules of "the other body" to clamp those wilderness bills into a closet.
But after the election, with many of those wilderness bills sponsored by Republicans who are headed out of office — and who won't have another shot at it — Rahall said he thinks Republican pressure on Coburn will grow and Coburn will relent. Said Rahall:
These are bills that have broad consensus.
We'll be watching.

A show of hands, please: How many of you working moms out there work on a strict 9-to-5 schedule? Yeah, me neither. Seems like fewer and fewer of us working parents keep the kind of classic full-time day-job hours our parents' generation took for granted. Instead, we're working the night shift (as well as the day shift) just to get by, going to school in the evenings to improve ourselves and create opportunities for our families, or simply taking whatever work comes our way, at whatever time it's required. So how do we make sure our kids are cared for while we're working? It turns out more and more working parents with non-traditional schedules have an option that used to be only rarely available: day care … at night.
According to the New York Times, an increasing number of day care centers are now making care available for kids 24/7, in order to meet the round-the-clock childcare needs of today's working parents. That means kids are being dropped off and picked up late at night, or in the wee hours of the morning, as their parents head to and from work. That means some of them are not always eating dinner with their families or sleeping through the night in their own beds in their own homes. Or that they are spending long hours in day care, while their parents spend long hours at work.
Yes, in many cases, parents would rather have their children cared for, if not by themselves or a family member, than at least by a sitter at home while they work, but finances often make that scenario impossible, perhaps especially difficult in single-income households. That's just the reality of today's world.
Yes, in many ways, it's a sad reality – that so many of us moms are working low-paying jobs at all hours because we have no choice. But we do what we need to do to provide for our kids, and sometimes we get into a situation that seems as if it has no good answers: We need to work to feed and clothe our children, and keep a roof over their heads, but how can we provide for our children's emotional needs (tuck-in time feels so sacrosanct) if we're working? It's a quandary so many of us face.
Ultimately, one hopes, by seeing us work hard, our children will learn about the value of hard work. And though we may not spend the hours with them we might like, the time we do spend with them can still be high quality. (It's the quality, not the quantity of time we spend with our children that's important: How many of us repeat that to ourselves like a chant?) We just need to make sure our children know that, though we are sometimes away from them at the very times we would most like to be with them, we love them more than anything and are working to care for and provide for them – now and in the future.
It may be dispiriting to think of these young children being tucked in at night at a day care center – not by their own parents and not in their own beds – but extended day care hours are an important solution for a lot of working moms today, a key tool for their family's financial survival. It may not fulfill a want, but it does meet a need.
What do you think of daycare centers making their services available for parents with unconventional work schedules?

UK Flint Knapping Forum
1 comment:
Just started knapping after developing an interest in the subject after finding chert mesolithic implements where I live close to pendle hill. Got my deluxe kit delivered Saturday and have managed to create a lovely little spearhead out of a piece of more a less pure black chert I found locally. I have been scouring the ribble for more pieces but haven't found any thats not been riddled with impurities. Where can I purchase knapping flint or chert of good quality within the uk? Not large quantities like tonne sacks though as I don't have a big enough garden to accommodate that much. Thanks.ReplyDelete

quote:Originally posted by sleyvasGotcha, and interesting, so there are 3 distinct families which formed the lords. What happened with these children when it came time to marry in the 1340's - 1350's? i.e. this would put their children as coming of age in the 1370's, so the familial "solidarity" they may have had in the 1350's and 1360's might start to fall apart in the 1370's if the lord's children start marrying into other noble families of Impiltur or surrounding countries.I haven't checked against the list you just provided, but do these lords correspond to certain families controlling certain cities (i.e. we have 3 lords denoted as running a city, would they all be brothers/sisters)?

quote:Originally posted by George KrashosMy take on the Xothol is that they were indeed dwarf wizards (which in my Realms had always existed, but in very small numbers), with a particular focus on rune magic. What Azkuldar III did was bring them all together (the clans had always had them "up their sleeves", but never broadcasted that they existed as wizards) and make them a unified force for the first time, tasked with defending the realm magically and coming up with anti-Netherese magic and items (for example, in my campaign, the dwarves of Ammarindar created "spellbane hammers" - a warhammer that on command would levitate and travel alongside you and act as a small-scale rod of absorption (3d4 levels of spells to be absorbed), which when it maxed out would disintegrate but release the absorbed spell energy as healing (1d4 per spell level) to all dwarves within a 10-foot radius).As and aside, if you're not fixed in terms of a D&D rules and the game setting point of view, the new 5E rules relating to proficiency with armor and casting of spells, make dwarf wizards very doable and not easily distinguishable from their warrior brothers and sisters. They'll still be able to wear a chain shirt for example, and magic missile you till it hurts.I suppose given Ammarindar's long history and contact with humans, that there may have been some half-dwarves (but not likely Netherese half-dwarves till after Karsus' Folly) who gained membership to the Xothol also.I also considered that the Xothol wizards would have an affinity for construct magic and that some of their work ended up travelling to Myth Drannor where their work was refined to create "guardian blades" and "living axes" (see FR11 Dwarves Deep).In my Realms also, the Xothol closed down "officially" because it was no longer needed with the fall of Netheril, but "unoffically" because they had created THE Living Axe (again see FR11) which ran amok and did great damage before being flung away from the realm by desperate teleport magic. That scared the bejeezus out of the reigning king who shut the whole place down.I note that this is my take, and Eric and I are doing some work on Ammarindar at the point in time (although we've gone into hiatus for a bit).

quote:Originally posted by DemzerPartially related question: in your HHoI moon elves come from the Yuirwood to establish Larlotha in -6850, that's 100 years after the arrival of star elves in the Yuirwood and 250 years before the establishment of Yuireshanyaar, this makes me suspect that the moon elves left on purpose after the religious struggle between the Seldarine and the Yuir gods that we can glimpse from the pages of The Simbul's Gift. So the moon elves left the Yuirwood to preserve their identity and affiliation to the Seldarine while the star and wild elf embraced the Yuir pantheon and the Yuirwood, thus becoming "lost" to the Seldarine. Did you have something similar in mind when you set that date in HHoI, if not, may i ask what made the moon elves move in bulk from the Yuirwood in a time when the forest was relatively peacefull and full of other elves?

The MBTA Board of Directors has approved a $3 million contract as part of a project to repair and rehabilitate the Merrimack River Bridge in Haverhill. Commuter Rail trains on the MBTA's Haverhill Line travel over the bridge seven days a week.
The Merrimack River Bridge is the only bridge in the MBTA system with a similar design as the bridge that collapsed in Minneapolis last summer. The proposal includes design and construction, and the entire project would be expected to last approximately four years.
"I am pleased to hear that the MBTA is moving forward with plans to insure the continued safety of commuters who use the Merrimack River Bridge every day," said Senator Steven A. Baddour, Chairman of the Transportation Committee. "We must continue to be vigilant in maintenance and repair of our bridges and roadways to avoid senseless tragedies similar to the one the occurred in Minnesota. I look forward to working with the MBTA throughout the course of this project, and thank General Manager Grabauskas for his continued help and support."
"As the only bridge in the MBTA system with a similar deck truss design as the bridge that collapsed in Minneapolis, it is a top priority of the T's Bridge Management Program," said MBTA General Manager Daniel A. Grabauskas. "This project is required to ensure the continued safe operation of Commuter Rail service, and to extend the structure's useful life, reduce future maintenance costs, eliminate speed restrictions, and enhance the structural integrity of the bridge."
"This funding will help maintain the safety of the commuters who rely on it everyday and provide continued rail service to the city of Haverhill," said Representative Brian Dempsey of Haverhill. "I am pleased that the MBTA has recognized this project as a priority."
Start Date: 04/04/2008 End Date: Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
jbvb wrote:The issues here are 1) the masonry bridge piers need re-pointing, at least, 2) they put off replacing the deck timbers, and 3) it hasn't been painted in probably 50 years. IMO $3M should suffice for everything except maybe new paint.

The work is due to start any day now. Supposedly will take at least 2 years. Whole new deck and alot of rivet replacement. Paint, and other TLC long overdue.

I don't want to parody any other study Bible, because (as the editor of one) I know just how much effort they require, and I want to honor the truly excellent contributions of all who have been involved in making study Bibles. So I'm not going mention other products—not because they aren't worth it, but because I cannot do them justice. I'd better leave that job to more impartial observers.
Okay, that's my disclaimer. Now, here's my perspective on the matter: Basically, the NLT Study Bible focuses on the meaning and message of the text as understood in and through the original historical context. I don't see other study Bibles focusing so fully on that. Some study Bibles focus on helping people to accept a particular doctrinal system, while others focus on "personal application." Others simply provide interesting details about the context, language, grammar, etc., without asking how that information will impact people's understanding of the text. Still others focus on a particular type of study methodology—topical study, word study, etc. Our goal, by contrast, was to provide everything we could that would help the readers understand the Scripture text more fully as the original human authors and readers themselves would have understood it.
One way in which this goal works out is this: In many passages, we don't discuss the theological implications "for us" in our culture, where it is different from the biblical world. We simply discuss what the text meant in the original context and let people extrapolate from there. This means, for instance, that we don't have a discussion of "Creation vs. Evolution" in Genesis 1—because that question was really not at play for the original human author and readers of Genesis (I'll probably post more about Gen 1 in the future).
Another way to put this distinctive is this: We don't try to take the place of the Christian tradition/community in providing a systematic doctrinal understanding of Scripture. Within the scope of "evangelical Protestant Christianity," there are a lot of different systematic ways to understand the Bible. What we are trying to do is supplement that understanding, deepen it, and (on occasion) challenge it in light of a contextual reading of Scripture. We are not trying to mold the readers to a particular systematic theology, but to deepen and enrich their own reading of Scripture. So people from a variety of traditions/communities should be able to benefit from studying the Bible with the NLT Study Bible.
