I finally have one that works!
vintage, floral, airy, & youthful.
Oh, and can I have Cecilia's white dress?
I think we've all wished that at some point.
I really like this question!
This was kind of hard!
Lux is a mix of a Gemini (The Twins could equal to her light/life & dark/death side) & Aries.
Cecilia reminds me of a Mermaid & Ophelia and she's a virgin, so a mix of a Aquarius & Virgo.
Oh I'm so glad! Thank you very much <3!
That bitch had a baby. She ain't no virgin.
Yeah she slept with a lot of horn dogs.
Yep, the other girls still had their V-cards.
" The titles purpose is contrast. the Virgin (connotes light) Suicides (dark)."
Ugh, yes. Perfection.
This is what I was trying to explain.
Light vs. Dark
Life vs. Death
Oh, I didn't mean for it to come across as Lux's ethereal nature leaving her, when she lost her virginity. I was meaning that the obsessive & ethereal lure Trip felt for her went away, after he slept with her.
He couldn't figure out why he left her & that he didn't care. I always figured he left her because he lost that ethereal lure to her. The attraction he felt for her disappeared. Lux's ethereal nature was definitely still there. And it still is. =)
Yes, she did have sex with Trip. I think Eugenides was trying to show the deterioration of Lux after she slept with Trip & he left Lux there for no reason, other than maybe not feeling that obsessive attraction, like the first time he saw her.
I think there's something about the Lisbon girls being virgins, that draws everyone to them like a magnet. It's hard to put it into words, but there's something about purity & 'innocence' that the boys in TVS are drawn to in the Lisbon sisters.
I think when Trip slept with Lux, he lost that ethereal attraction that Lux had surrounding her, & that was moment when we knew these girls were definitely something else.
Not really sure where I was going with this, but it's 3:30 in the morning. The best deep thoughts come to me at this time.

"These cookies have the perfect combination of salty and sweet! You can use any type of salted potato chips but I think Ruffles® are the best. This recipe proves that opposites really do attract!" — CookieeMonster13
Watch video tips and tricks
1 cup unsalted butter, softened
1/2 cup white sugar
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
2 cups all-purpose flour
1 cup crushed potato chips
1/2 cup chopped walnuts (optional)
I only made one substitution, I used chopped pecans instead of walnuts. I took the recipe submitter's advice and use Ruffles chips. Baking at 350*, my cookies were done at NINE minutes--once they cooled they were soft and chewy. I think these are good, my whole family seemed to like them. My family thought this cookie could use chocolate chips. I'll make these again but throw a cup of semi-sweet chocolate chips in.

Cake Batter Dip!
This is a quick and easy little dessert that is perfect for whipping up and setting out for parties if you're in a hurry--and it's only three ingredients!! It tastes just like cake batter but has fun little colorful swirls in it.
1 box funfetti cake mix
1/2 container of plain yogurt (big container, not an individual cup)
1/2 container of Cool Whip
1. Mix all the ingredients together in a bowl with fork and add more yogurt or Cool Whip to taste.
2. Refrigerate until ready to serve
3. Spread out on a serving dish and serve with animal crackers, teddy grahams, or graham crackers
As easy as that :)
9 comments:
This was very good! I made this last weekend for a party I had and I could eat it right out of the bowl! I think you could switch it up and make it with whatever kind of cake mix you prefer! I'm going to try cherry chip next time. Very good idea!

so we dont have to bake the cake mix?? it doesnt hurt to eat the raw eggs without baking it?
ReplyDeleteReplies- AnonymousJune 17, 2012 at 10:30 AM
No, no, no...you dont actually make the cake mix...you just use the powder from the box; no eggs involved!

The first half of 5 Years After is a popular sport and toprope climb at TP. Climb Chicken Shit to a ledge, or scramble up 3rd class to its left. Continue up on solid flakes and positive holds to a 2-bolt anchor. It's 5.8 with closely spaced bolts up to this point; the 2nd bolt is not visible until it's at your nose. Most people lower from this anchor, but they are missing out. The adventurous can continue up a seldom-climbed and runout face (5.9 somewhat runout, at first, then easier above) between big flakes to the top of the rock. If you plan on continuing to the top, don't belay at the anchor, combine it into a single 190' pitch.
The face left of Chicken Heads and right of Dirty Diagonal. The 2 bolt anchor is obvious. Lower from that anchor with 1 rope, or walk off to the right if you top out.
2 bolts to the 2 bolt anchor midway up. If you stop here, only 4 quickdraws are needed (5 quickdraws, if starting with Chicken Shit). If you plan on topping out, you'll need some gear to build an anchor up high at the top, and a light rack of cams and nuts to 3", including micros, to get there.
That's pretty cool to see TP on the cover of Climbing. But what's up with tilting the photo that much when you can see the horizon? :-) Or that just a super wide angle shot? I look forward to seeing the issue.
No, it does not look like a super wide angle shot. The frame is definitely tilted to make it look steep and the anchor is partially hidden behind the title to make what is a descent route look like a steeper, longer plated granite 5.9.
I agree with Lee, poor photographic form. It is even funnier when all they had to do was photograph Techweenie or its 5.11 siblings for a true, vertical, plated-granite route that needs no tilting to do it justice. Having read the article, I also question Matt's assessment of Clean Green Dream as the Solid Gold of TP and Serpentine Face as the Figures on a Landscape of TP. Figures is phenomenal and sustained and Serpentine is just pretty good with a really short crux; no real comparison. I can't fault Samet too much, he grew up in NM and like those of us who have lived here for a while, the perspective gets skewed. It must be the water from Los Alamos that does it. Articles about NM never seem to do it justice, which is good for keeping crowds away. W
Oh come on William and you know Semen Girl is the Astroman of northern NM.

By Mayo Clinic staffChronic exertional compartment syndrome isn't a life-threatening condition and usually doesn't cause any lasting or permanent damage if you seek appropriate treatment. However, if you continue to exercise despite pain, the repeated increases in compartment pressure can lead to permanent numbness or weakness in affected muscles.
Perhaps the worst complication of untreated chronic exertional compartment syndrome is its impact on participation in your favorite sports. The pain may prevent you from being active.

The crisis in theDemocratic Republic of Congo continues to be highly underreported. Although there are many humanitarian needs in the world, the case of the Congo, has been deemed to have the worst sexual violence in the world by John Holmes, UN Undersecretary General for Humanitarian Affairs. New reports show that more than 420,000 women in the Democratic Republic of Congo are raped each year -- roughly 48 per hour and 1,152 per day. In our minds that is unacceptable and we can do something to help them. Peace, change, and stability can only come to these regions with a vested interest from the global community.

Amazing Vacation Home and Incredible Views!
Amazing Vacation Home and Incredible Views!
- Guest Caroline (Vancouver, BC)
- Date of stay 08/24/13
- Review Submitted 09/15/13
We were blown away with this property! This vacation home had everything that we needed: comfortable rooms, an amazing yard and treehouse for the kids, everything we needed in the kitchen, even a stroller in the garage (which was helpful because we forgot ours). Not to mention the spectacular deck... this deck had plenty of space for our family to lounge out on and enjoy the beautiful Okanagan views. The house was extremely clean and well kept, and Bonnie the house manager was very helpful and easy to access when we needed her. We would highly recommend this property to anyone seeking a quiet, peaceful, and relaxing vacation. Caroline and FamilyRecommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, romantic getaway, sightseeing, age 55+, families with young children, pet owners, girls getaway.
Owner response: Hello Caroline and Family, We are so happy that you had such a wonderful vacation. Isn't the new deck spectacular? You never get tired of that amazing view! We look forward to having you come back next summer. Many Thanks, Melissa and Mike Klassen

We just got back from a week long stay at this lovely home. There were 3 adults and 4 children ages 3, 4 and 6. The amazing yard provided the kids with hours of fun, exploring, climbing trees, picking cherries and blueberries. We also woke almost every morning to deer in the yard. There was ample room in the house with a comfy bed for each adult and a kids room with sleeping space for 3. When the kids weren't enjoying the yard we were all at a playground, beach or waterslides just a short drive away. We spent each evening enjoying a BBQ dinner on an amazing, expansive deck with ample and comfortable seating. I'd recommend this home to any family - it has everything you need for a great vacation!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, adventure seekers, families with young children, pet owners, girls getaway.
Owner response: Hello Paull Family, Thank you very much for your kind words. We are so happy to hear that you had such a wonderful vacation. Come visit again soon. Many Thanks, Melissa and Mike Klassen

Mike, Melissa - again, want to say thanks for opening your vacation home to us. We had a great time and appreciated very much your comfortable house. Our kids had a great time in your expansive backyard and enjoyed the view immensely. My parents enjoyed the fact that despite being in Coldstream, we were central to the lake, to Zelaney Farms and Peters Orchard, and a mere few minutes outside of Vernon. Hopefully we will be back!Recommended for: Families with teenagers, sightseeing, age 55+, families with young children, pet owners, girls getaway.

We spent 1 week with our family and a friend and her son. The home met all of our needs and was truly enjoyable. The landscaping and yard surpassed our expectations providing a huge greenspace, a wonderful treehouse for the kids, and a view from the balcony that is amazing. In fact, virtually every meal was shared on the deck as the weather was perfect and consistent every day. The home itself has a nice layout, comfortable and beautiful furnishings. There is some wear and tear as here & there due to it being so family-friendly which was not noteworthy whatsoever. The hot tub was a joy in the later evenings. The kitchen came with everything needed, including some extras like flour, sugar, etc. We would definitely recommend this place to families as it is a quiet retreat and so relaxing and comfortable. You will feel right at home. There is a steep driveway however so be careful when parking. A few beach chairs available would be a nice touch for future visits. We hope to return to enjoy this lovely home nestled in a very quiet community. Highly Recommend.Recommended for: Families with teenagers, romantic getaway, age 55+, families with young children, pet owners, girls getaway.

Hi Melissa and Mike Just wanted to let you know that we had a lovely holiday in your wonderful home in Vernon. My children were so sad to be coming home again – all too soon. My husband was delighted to find such a relaxing place to stay with so much privacy and such an expansive outdoor space for the children to play. We were especially grateful that you allowed our dog to be a part of our holiday – there are so few really special places to take a dog as part of a family. We loved it so much that we are sure to look for a return visit next year. Thanks again for sharing your family home – it was exactly what we needed.Did you find this review helpful?

Our two families had a great extra long weekend in this well kept, clean and tidy home. So much better than staying in a hotel room. Lots of space to spread out, and all kinds of creature comforts available to make this a pleasant visit to Vernon. I'd like to do it all over again!

We really enjoyed ourselves here. It was nice to have a quiet place all of our own to come back to after a busy day at the ski resort. The house was exactly as we were shown it would be. Bonnie did an amazing job of decorating for Christmas for us and helped us solve our few problems we encountered the first day. What a beautiful view - great hiking trails - a place we'd definitely visit again! Thank you.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

We really enjoyed our stay in this lovely home. This was our best BC vacation yet! We expecially loved our evenings on the deck watching the sunsets after full days of hiking, travelling the Kettle Valley Railway and golfing some of the best golf courses in Canada. We recommend "The Rise" for avid golfers. Thank you for making our stay so comfortable.Did you find this review helpful? Yes | No Helpful votes: 1/1

U.S. Chamber Urges Congress to Avoid Trade War
WASHINGTON, D.C. – The United States Chamber of Commerce joined other business organizations and urged lawmakers to fix lingering international tax issues before the European Union imposes retaliatory tariffs on U.S. products. The World Trade Organization has ruled that the U.S. tax structure for multinational corporations is in violation of trade rules and has authorized the E.U. to impose as much as $4 billion annually in sanctions.
"These retaliatory tariffs will hurt U.S. exports to Europe at a time when the global economy is showing signs of renewed growth. Moreover, these tariffs will negatively impact jobs of American workers," according to a joint letter to Congress, signed by Chamber President and CEO Thomas Donohue.
Earlier efforts by the United States to satisfy the requirements of the World Trade Organization have fallen short and the deadline for a new tax approach has passed. Lawmakers must swiftly enact – and President Bush must sign – legislation that will avert a trade war and fulfill our obligation under trade rules.
"[The] United States must lead by example and comply with adverse WTO decisions if we are to expect similar behavior from our trading partners," according to today's letter.
The Chamber and other business organizations are also running ads in political publications urging action.
The European Union has signaled that it is considering tariffs on a range of American-made products, including: jewelry, agriculture, wood products, toys, textile and apparel products, refrigeration equipment, iron and steel products, construction equipment and paper products.
The U.S. Chamber of Commerce is the world's largest business federation representing more than three million businesses and organizations of every size, sector and region.

If this is a man and a teenage girl, then the girl would have already been deflowered, and would probably even be pregnant.

Imprisoning one parent wouldn't bring the child any benefits, would it?
I may have been wrong. I think you might be a closet pedophile.

Fall 2012 NP Applications - Page 7
Register Today!- Mar 7, '12 by NJprisonrnSorry to hear that, microdi2. I didn't have to do citations for the FNP. I would check out this link for info about current APA standards. APA Style. You might also want to get PERRLA software, since APA is going to be our "friend" for the next few years of school! As far as your topic goes, they didn't offer suggestions? Maybe something about an evidence based practice that you are interested, like VAP reducing bundles? Whatever you like. There should be plenty of journal articles to back up your topic, and thus plenty of references for the paper. Good luck.
- Mar 7, '12 by Mom To 4Thank you for recommending the PERRLA program. I have been reading through an APA manual trying to get an idea and this will be so much easier
- Mar 7, '12 by LRNGIRLHey microdi2,
I would try to get 2-3 journal articles from an accredited database source describing the importance/need of ACNPs in society, etc. Then incorporate it into your paper while describing your goals and personal importance of being an ACNP. Hope this helps and good luck! - Mar 8, '12 by rachelaleanRN2BI agree with LRNGIRL. I did this for my essay for UAB. I used quotes from my references to support my ideas of why NPs are needed. You can use journals or articles as your reference.
- Mar 15, '12 by rachelaleanRN2BI received an email from one of the three schools I applied to. I was accepted into the DNP program at the University of Arizona FNP program. It will be another month before I hear from the other schools.
- Mar 18, '12 by nurseaigI got accepted to SUNY Downstate Medical Center MSN-FNP program for fall 2012.
- Mar 18, '12 by jaznia15I've been accepted to Georgia college and state university for their part time FNP program
- Mar 18, '12 by laurabs24Those accepted, did y'all have interviews? How did they go? Hard...easy...nervewracking? Mine with Missouri is Friday! Eeekkk!

Laird Plastics Joins Growing Number of Companies to Support SGP
Bohemia, NY – May 2, 2012 – Sustainable Green Printing Partnership (SGP), a non-profit organization providing sustainability certification in the graphic communications industry, today announces the Gold Patronage of Laird Plastics, the largest independent plastics distributor in North America. Laird recognizes that when leaders of various industries come together, they can collectively raise the bar for all. By supporting SGP, Laird is aligning with an organization and its Patrons that are devoted to encouraging and promoting participation in the worldwide movement to reduce the environmental impact of printed materials and increase social responsibility.
Sustainable distribution and industry stewardship is important to Laird Plastics. The company has been involved with several associations and their environmental committees for years, including the Specialty Graphic Imaging Association (SGIA), International Association of Plastics Distribution (IAPD), National Association of Wholesaler-Distributors (NAW), and the American Chemistry Council (ACC). Laird is committed to sustainable supply chain dynamics, and believes it has a responsibility to validate manufacturing claims for the end user, while passing consumer concerns back upstream.
"Laird Plastics operates its business by incorporating a clear view of how we interact with the natural environment, which is why our partnership with SGP is so important," Brett Thompson, Director of Environmental Affairs, Laird Plastics. "We will continue to reduce our environmental impact and consumption of non-renewable resources, increase the impact of our market wide recycling efforts, and add environmentally preferable products to our portfolio."
"We are very excited to have Laird Plastics join the SGP community. Laird has been in the forefront of plastics recycling, and many of their customers are SGP Certified printers. Their commitment to helping customers establish in house recycling programs speaks for itself," Marci Kinter, Chair, SGP Program.
Plastics are inherently recyclable, but dozens of material types make the identification of specific ones difficult. For this reason, Laird helps educate its customers to improve the public perception of plastics. Its recycling strategy is based on a "reverse distribution" concept, whereby collected materials are returned to its vendor partners to be re-incorporated into new product.
About Laird Plastics
Laird Plastics is the largest independent plastics distributor in North America, with 53 locations throughout the United States and Canada. It is also the only full line distributor with a business unit solely devoted to plastic recycling and sustainable supply chain management.
About SGP
SGP is a non-profit organization providing sustainability certification in the graphic communications industry. The organization promotes reducing the environmental impact and increasing the social responsibility through sustainable green printing practices. To receive SGP certification, print facilities go well beyond compliance with applicable local, state, and federal laws. They establish sustainability management systems, implement best practices, and commit to continuous improvements in sustainability. Certified facilities are also required to report on progress annually. For more information about the SGP Partnership, the SGP Patron program, or the SGP certification process, visit www.sgppartnership.org.

The Stars Lined UpI am a married, 49 year old mother of 3. My children are a 17 year old boy, a 15 year old boy and an almost 9 year old girl. It has been a year and a half since my open heart surgery. It's not always the first thing I think about each day! My biggest concern still is erratic sleeping patterns. 10 October 1998 The stars lined up for me on July 20, 1997. It was a bright Sunday morning. I had been up early, drinking coffee and enjoying the quiet time. My husband and two teen-age sons had just returned from delivering the Sunday papers. My eight year old daughter was still in bed. At 6:30 a.m. I experienced excruciating pain in my jaw. It was so intense, I knew something was wrong. My husband didn't question me when I said I needed to go to the emergency room. By noon that same day I was undergoing open heart surgery to repair a dissecting aorta. I'm skipping so many details, but everyone one that knew me was shocked. I had always had regular check-ups and was always considered to be in good health. I spent 12 days in the hospital and the following year recuperating. This fall I returned to my elementary teaching job on a half-time basis. I feel pretty good, but do need to fit rest periods into my schedule. I've found the world hasn't slowed down, but I have. In some ways I feel much wiser than I did before. But, keeping up with work ,and family does take a lot of energy. I'm trying to learn pacing. I continue to take Toprol XL, a beta-blocker. I've also been using an anti-depressant and sleep medication. I have great doctors. They tell me I'll never know why this happened. I don't feel like the question why consumes me. I do feel like I could use support from others in my situation so I welcome contacts. I'll already add the disclaimer that I'm not too speedy in replying - priorities, you know. Update 12 Jun 1999 My narrative's title, "The Stars Lined up for Me", still holds true. My first-born son, Joe, graduated from high school this week, my daughter is performing in her dance recital today, and my 16 year old son is into football and sports in a big way and hoping to be QB next year. I just completed my first year of teaching (half-time) since my open heart surgery. It was the most satisfactory year of my 26 years of teaching. My husbands family from several states is gathering here for a family reunion celebration this week. I really feel up to it. Thank you all for good wishes and for being there. I had no knowledge of aortic aneurysm and no inkling that it would happen to me. I feel blessed. Update: 20 July 2005 My blessings have been many since my emergency surgery to repair my ascending aorta took place 8 years ago today. My health is good. I continue to meet with my cardiologist annually and have heard the wonderful words, "things look good, no change in size, descending aorta with false lumen looks a-ok." I did change to monitoring by MRA instead of CT scan. After 5 years of annual CT scans I had an allergic reaction to the dye used in the CT scan. Doctors said not to worry. They would premedicate me for the next annual scan. Well, even with the predisone and antihistamine pre-meds I had an allergic reaction and ended up in the ER for a bit. I broke out in hives before leaving the scan area. My blood pressure was low and this time I was a bit more scared. My husband had to be called again... so MRA it is. I still take my Nadolol and actually am still on a small dose of an antidepressant. I'm reticent to change anything that seems to be working well! I am also taking a compounded hormone replacement, which seems to have helped my menopause symptoms. (I do have reservations about continuing with the HRT, but my doctors do not have a concern.) Seems like the normal aging process and open heart surgery repair accompanied by sleep issues etc. all hit at once; the routine I'm on is working well. The blessings have been many - 2 sons graduated from high school, one from college, my wonderful granddaughter was born, my daughter started high school and I am able to keep up with her active schedule. We've traveled to family reunions and have been able to attend other joyous family events (usually 2000 miles away). I retired from my 34 year teaching career this past June. My husband continues to work in the commercial construction industry, my daughter will be a sophomore in high school this fall, my sons live in town and our beautiful granddaughter just turned 2. I joke that I'm going to be a stay-at-home mom when the school year starts again. I know I've learned to cherish life in the past 8 years. Someone said during my recuperation year to 'give yourself thhe gift of time, and let others do for you,' words that I pass on to others when medical crises hit. Thanks to the many authors who have contributed to this site. I have signed in many times over the years and found support, comfort and information. Prayers and thoughts of gratitude and hope continue to be with you. Discussion, comments, or questions: Mary Ellen King © Copyright 1998 Mary Ellen

Title |
Hires Root Beer Company 1891 |
Category |
Booklet, gallery |
Why It's Interesting |
This charming booklet partly tells an illustrated story about a girl called Little Mabel, but seems most interesting to me because consisting mostly of a history and description of the Hires Root Beer Company. The text includes woodcut-like pictures of Mr. Hires' private office; the main office; the second floor–printing office; the second floor–advertising room; third floor–bottling and packing room; and fourth floor–laboratory. Hires sold bottles of extract, not a ready-made drink. Sales had risen from 864 bottles in 1879 to 1,296,000 in 1890, in which year Hires distributed 4 million "beautiful picture cards, printed in ten colors, gladdening as many persons, brightening their homes and lives, . . ." Buyers made root beer at home by mixing a bottle with 4 pounds of sugar, 5 gallons of water [lukewarm was best], and half a pint of good fresh yeast [or half a cake of fresh compressed yeast.] |
This website seeks to encourage researchers and collectors to discover and study obscure ephemera that document American culture and life. Worldcat reveals that most of the items that I post cannot be found in more than a few research libraries–often none at all. Alternately, research libraries do not bother to catalog ephemeral publications like these. I believe, however, that because these were distributed free, or at nominal cost, to consumers, they were the publications most likely to make their way into homes and be read by large numbers of Americans.
I acquire pre-1960 examples of the kinds of publications that prove so useful when scholars study 19th-Century America. The limited competition that I encounter for them suggests that libraries, which could easily outbid me, have little interest in post-Civil War and 20th-century ephemeral publications in general.
I try to anticipate what materials future historians will find useful. Being an historian first and a collector second, I organized this website to encourage others to do this too—even if this means new competition for me. I am aware that I could be wrong in prizing particular ephemera or even whole classes of ephemera. I may even be wrong to encourage scholars to study obscure ephemeral publications; these may be obscure for good reason.
Ephemerastudies.org will permit me to share with others the information and imagery that I am acquiring, and to benefit from the knowledge, intelligence and experience of other scholars and collectors. Please contact me with your impressions of the site.

Ella Koon said Ron Ng's force kiss is "Too sudden, not romantic"
Wednesday, May 13, 2009
Ella Koon, Vivian Yeo and Lelia Tong were recording for the show "Discovering TVB Drama King" 《情迷TVB戲劇之王》 and talked about kissing scenes and intimate scenes. Ella said that she does not have much experience, since she entered the industry until now, she had nonly filmed two series. One she co-starred with Kenneth Ma in "Survivor's Law II", but that was not the main topic. Asked who she gave her first on-screen kiss to? Ella stuttered and said: "The first one is him.... is Ron Ng." Back then was it just one kiss that started the relationship? "No, I filmed with Kenneth Ma too, the two kisses were light." Between the two, which one was the most memorable? "Kenneth Ma because the movements were not rushed, he wanted to try two kisses in front of the camera, but on the first try I backed off, so the second time he was quite embarrassed to come forward to do the kiss." Rumored boyfriend Ron Ng was more familiar and practiced more? "No, one time when the scene spoke of he was bothering me and forced kissed me in the car, it was actually a really sudden feeling! At the time, I just started acting and was not experienced, so I wasn't adapted to being in front of the camera." Ron has experience and led you into the scene? "The scene wasn't too romantic, no need to lead me into the scene."
Vivian Yeo has no feeling when filming kiss scenes
Vivian said that she filmed kiss scenes with Sammul Chan, Eric Suen and Bosco Wong before. Among the three men, Bosco was the best to kiss with because he had acting experience. She said: "For each of my roles, I have to remember my lines and stay pretty, no much feeling, also I won't put real feelings into the scene."

The Society of Cosmetic Chemists (SCC) Annual Scientific Seminar, held May 3–June 1, 2012, was led with a charge for sustainability and greener chemistry. Michael Fevola, PhD, of Johnson & Johnson, moderated the first session, which opened with the Henry Maso keynote award lecture given by John Warner, PhD, of the Warner Babcock Institute for Green Chemistry LLC. Warner painted a picture for attendees of a "world where all segments of society demand environmentally benign products," conceding that the reality is today's knowledge of material science would not support this demand. Warner explained that materials can be designed to have a minimal impact on the environment and human health while remaining economically competitive. However, the missing link in current material science studies is an understanding of toxicity and the environmental impact of materials. Looking ahead to predict future opportunities in green chemistry, Warner noted considerations for the environment and cost constraints. Attendees enjoyed this view of a trend already in motion within the personal care industry.
Camille Sasik, PhD, of Aveda, described the development of a sensory test method for identifying sustainable polymers to replace synthetic polymers in hair styling applications. She explained that synthetic polymers generally are not sustainable, renewable or biodegradable, which is why there is a push for their replacement. Sasik's method combined swatch testing, sensory evaluations and polymer characterization to allow for direct comparisons between synthetic and sustainable polymers. This approach has been used to successfully identify more than 24 naturally derived polymer alternatives. Characterization was carried out by incorporating the polymer of interest in an aqueous gel and assessing parameters including shine, natural feel, flaking and hold. Sasik concluded that sensory testing such as this can be used in the early stages of product development to assist in ingredient replacement.
Tom Burns of Novozymes described the American Chemical Society's Green Chemistry Institute (GCI) round table, a group of companies that are dedicated to develop ingredients as green as possible, to assist formulators in creating more sustainable formulas.
Presenting on behalf of Robert Peoples, PhD, David Wylie discussed the new American National Standards Institute (ANSI) standard for greener formulations. This tool is the result of a collaboration between NSF International and ASC/GCI. The standard is meant to serve as a tool to assist chemists in evaluating the impact of chemicals, processes and the design of new molecules within a health safety framework. According to Peoples and Wylie, "This standard will play a role in transforming chemistry from being petroleum-based to one driven by the 'Twelve Principles of Green Chemistry.'"
Throughout the day, attendees had time to peruse the student posters. Research topics included: DEET encapsulation to reduce its absorption into skin, characterizing ion transport in the human nail plate, high throughput methods for in vitro sunscreen testing, the effect of polymer backbone rigidity and hydrophilicity on polymer-surfactant interactions, the influence of alkyl sulfate on the mesomorphic phase behavior of aqueous systems containing fatty acids and their salts and the use of contact angle and surface tension measurements to design oil dispersants. Also from the student posters, foam stability was a major area of study. Posters presentations examined the effects of polyvinylpyrrolidone (PVP) above and below the critical overlap concentration on sodium alkyl ether sulfate foam stability, the effects of polyquaternium-10 on the foam stability of sodium alkyl ether sulfate and sodium alkyl ether sulfate/cocamidobetaine systems and the effects of polyquaternium-10 and ionic strength on the foam stability of sodium alkyl ether sufate and sodium alkyl ether sulfate/cocamidobetaine systems.

Colo. Ct of Appeals rules in favor of on-campus carry
News story here. It appears that the Court of Appeals ruled that the Statewide pre-emption statute covered universities, and requires that CCW permittees be allowed to carry.
Amazing. Forward those judges names to Obama for the USSC short lists

Now to see what happens with the Colorado State University system, which I think is being sued by Rocky Mountain Gun Owners.
Posted by: Chas Clifton at April 15, 2010 02:24 PM
My read of the opinion is that the UC system can't ban CCW permit holders, but that the claim about the ban on guns on campus in general for non-permittees is remanded to the district court with a higher standard of review.

As mentioned regularly here, we're not that much into gambling, mainly because we find watching sports stressful enough without our parents' rent check riding on it, but thankfully our pals at Oddjack has a stronger taste for vice than we do. And he has unearthed a useful tidbit today, one we've always wondered why more people don't pay attention to.
Namely, the trends of individual umpires and their affect on big games like tonight's World Series matchup. Namely, the strike zone of home plate umpires. Tonight's umpire is Jerry Layne, whose, according to a gambling site, "strike zone is inconsistent, and his hot temper has a tendency to turn a bad situation into a disaster." (Ozzie Guillen alert!)
There's also some good info about Game 6 home plate umpire Angel Hernandez. Hell, the umpires have pretty much been the story every game this postseason, so why shouldn't we approach the games that way?

Javascript blog problem.
Hi all,
Sorry to bother you. I have been really struggling understanding what is probably quite simple. I have been working on BlogSpot coding a theme. Currently, whenever a post is made, on the homepage it gets turned into a 'summary' rather than being shown as a full post. Below is the code which I have identified as handling the task. I have tried changing it and deleting it many times all resulting in the same result - The post is visible but none of the hyperlinked titles or post dates etc show, only the main content. I was hoping if someone could help me solve this so that when I post, a full article is shown on the blog rather than just a summary? PHP Code:
It makes sense except you haven't said what part of the post you want to *KEEP*.
That code is stripping out *ALL* HTML tags. Is that what you want? But the code is really really funky. Code:
if(img.length<=1) If img.length is *exactly* 1 (that is, if there is exactly 1 image within the
) then that code will first set imgtag to the one string and then to the other! And there is similar insanity with the if (postCount>=1) stuff.On top of that, the code to strip the HTML tags is braindead. It wouldn't give me much confidence in using this software. |
Just to show how UTTERLY BRAINDEAD that code is, try this:
var txt = "In math, 3 < 5 is true and 10 > 12 is false"; You get an alert of In math, 3 12 is false The stupid code thinks that "< 5 is true and 10 >" is an HTML tag!!! ********* Anyway, aside from the code being both braindead and ugly as pig snot, if you don't want to eliminate HTML tags from the blogposts, then you *could* simply change that function to Code:
function removeHtmlTag( strx, chop ) { return strx; } Code:
function removeHtmlTag( strx, chop ) /* ignores chop! */ |
Do note that arbitrarily removing HTML tags can have funny consequences! (Using either their code or mine.)
For example: Code:
This is a nothing post. This blog owner is a doofus After removing the HTML tags, you get Code:
This is a nothing post. This blog owner is a doofus I think I would avoid BlogSpot if it doesn't support something like that! |
Thanks for all your help, it worked perfectly! Agreed, this code is very messy and doesn't help newbies at JS like me :D The BlogSpot platform the gives no option, they really need to update. They only recently started to allow people to code!
Gonna have to blow the dust off this one chaps...
The code now looks like this: PHP Code:
Whoever designed this clearly wants to make my life hell... All help appreciated muchly :D Joe |
are both of these supposed to be true? (they both are when img.length==1)
if (img.length <= 1) { |
All times are GMT +1. The time now is 08:18 AM. |

Ooh, papa.
Size: 2.5"x3.5"
Medium: Brush pen, Copic markers, pen white

Varric spam post?
(if varric had been a romance option i would have been all up on that, every playthrough, no exceptions.)
Cannot not reblog. And that last statement is highly accurate.
As requested by Emmers
sidenote: I got ink in my eye AND IT BURNS
A poster of Varric Tethras's new book. So steamy! Also, the small Varric bust in the corner is so stinking cute to me I can't even stand it. Hee~
After staring at my assignment for an hour and not writing a single word I remembered this lovely doodle from lunch today. Can you tell which one I drew first? \(//v//)\
Thank you, ma'am, for drawing them in modern attire! We shall have to brain storm during the summer so this magic keeps on happening, yo!
…because I am super productive. And these are my results.
You will live in Mansion.
You will drive a Cerulean Dodge Charger.
You will marry Varric Tethras and have 2 kids.
You will be an Editor at GI in AU Earth.
Just so you know, I put one or two normal things in each section, hence why my vehicle and occupation are normal. I almost drove a Normandy SR-2.
You can be just as productive as me, right here.
Sebastian: You know, if you have time, I could give you a few archery pointers.
Varric: Excuse me?
Sebastian: Sometimes your shots veer a little left; I thought maybe your cocking ring was off. I could take a look if you like.
Varric: …You want to touch Bianca's cocking ring?
Sebastian: It was just a thought.
Sebastian, what you thinking, boy?
I never had Sebastian in my party so I did not hear this exchange, I am sad to say. I might have to run around with Sebby in my party next time I traverse through Act 3.
Why are they Slytherin and Gryffindor color-schemed? .__.
I know Fenris' final design was all black leather and what-have-you, but I like the green of his concept art. Also I only have one color of black and grey respectively.
Manly chibis! Look at those gem-like eyes! Smoldering topazes! Glimmering emeralds!
Product of a brainstorm between myself and Emily. There are mooooore~
Uncanny! Yes, please!
So… in lieu of doing any actual work, a friend and I have come up with the idea to create a GenderBent Dragon Age 2 crew for the Renaissance Faire in Houston this year. And by that I mean there are currently two of us. If at all possible, I would like to get two guys, who indubitably would need to…
Awwwww yeeeeeah!
Varric Tethras:
Thane Krios:
Garrus Vakarian:
Call me a freak. But I love these guys
Yes, ma'am! I am in full agreement.

The Bayou Swamps, Louisiana
Outside, the night grew. The moon rose up to replace the glory of the day's sun as the swamp glade stilled. The willows did not sway and the grass did not flutter as the night crept in. Owls silently watched from the safety of the trees while the moon rose high, and it's pure opal light gleamed down onto the quiet clearing.
Such a silence as this was rare in the old swamp, even the crickets and swamp frogs ceased their pining songs. Something terrible was felt in the glade. Even the stealthy night creatures dared not venture out, too afraid now to hunt. All the animals and insects sensed a strange and deadly presence. It was the same as when a great fire would roll through, ruthlessly striking all the land around it, leaving nothing but ashes and burned bones. Though no heat or smoke appeared as the swamp waited, and it was a waiting that seemed to stretch relentlessly on.
A movement was heard; it echoed through the moonlit silence; the sound of a woman, moaning in pain.
The owls fearfully swiveled their huge, staring eyes to the direction from where the sound had come.
A lone woman stood in the glade.
Rubiee knew that she should not be here, should not do this, but she could not face losing Cessoline. Her eyes rose up. If I do this, Cesso and Reeves will live, and my soul will be lost, but nevertheless, it would be lost if I let them die.
Her grandmother had taught her how to call him. She took a deep breath while the moon slanted yellow, as the night seemed to recede from its eerie light. She wore no raiment; the moon glistened down on her bare form. Her slim arms were thrown wide as her head leaned back, her arched throat releasing an inhuman howl. In one slim hand there seemed to be a piece of cloth, blood-stained, as if it had once been a bandage covering a great, flowing wound. In her other hand she held large, faded yellow feather.
An orange glow seemed to slither through the glade, as all the creatures knew it would come: Fire! Though it held no heat, only a strange light raging and zigzagging just as fire would, as it finally reached the lone woman.
Sensing the fire, she raised her head up, her eyes remaining shut against the fierceness of the light.
The glow hovered as though it was a living being, slowly lowering to the ground beneath the woman's bare feet, transforming itself, appearing now as a yellow snake. It wound itself up the woman's calves, past her thighs, to entirely engulf her skin. Her ebony light changed to the same glowing color as the fiery snake.
Woman and snake demon were now an image of the same creature; yellow light shone out through her every pore and her eyes opened as this strange light poured from them with such swiftness, it was as if her soul escaped right out of her eyes.
The woman sank to her knees, still grasping the strange objects in each tight fist. The blood on the rag glowed with the amber light, as did the faded feather, while she pulled her tight fists together to meld the feather and the bloody cloth. A moan escaped her lips, the action obviously causing her intense pain, as feather and cloth seemed to smolder in her hands. A thick yellow stream of smoke rose from the fire now burning there.
Rubiee Evangeline looked at her own hands: The feather and cloth were ashes as she opened her palms and stared down. Her skin was burned so deep that she could see her own bones melting before her eyes. She leaned her head back in great agony and fell onto the cool grass behind her, eyes closing as her body stilled.
A cool breeze drifted back into the swamp, the willows swayed, and crickets began to sing again, as though they had come alive with the breeze. The moonlight fell all around as the owls screeched, leaving their perches to hunt for their dinner. Life seemed to seep from every part of the swamp once more, and it pulsed on, into the night as though all that had passed had been an illusion.
But it hadn't, and Rubiee's actions were to have far-reaching consequences.

It Could have been so different
February 11, 2010 | 07:36 AM How much respect do you think the Japanese would have given Hawaiians at all if they were successful in their imperial campaign. Be glad you're not speaking Japanese and can actually practice your culture. Hawaii would not have been left alone for long if the US didn't have control of it. In WWII, it was far too much of a strategic location. Any other country wouldn't given a crap about Hawaiian culture at all and wold have simply quashed any talk of a "Reinstated Hawaiian Government". Worse yet, this kind of talk would be likely to get you executed for subversion. Be lucky the islands are part of a country that allows Hawaii to operate as its own state largely with it's own laws. One thing that always confused me is that if enough Hawaiians actually cared about these issues, they could get more politicians elected to the state and local positions to really make a difference. Instead, they stand as obstructionists who want to stop every change that is proposed to happen in any way they can. Get some balls, get a candidate, and effing motivate your people, and stop effing complaining about shit that happened a lifetime ago that can't be changed from the outside. Kukui |

Frankenfoods or miracle crops to help feed a hungry world?
Your feelings about genetically modified foods depend, in good measure, on how their benefits and potential risks are explained to you. The words used, and the way they're used, color your perceptions. That seems obvious enough, says Dr. Steven B. Katz, associate professor of English at North Carolina State University.
So how come so many scientists and policy-makers don't get it?
"The important role that language plays in the public's perception and reception of scientific data and risk assessment is often neglected by scientists and program administrators," said Katz, who has reviewed many case studies, both in the U.S. and abroad, of controversial subjects like biotechnology that have been slowed or completely halted by public opposition.
"In many of these cases, public resistance, at least in part, has been traced to communication problems flawed rhetorical choices and faulty assumptions by scientists about the role of language, emotion and values in communicating with the media and public," he said.
Katz will present "Language and Persuasion: The Communication of Biotechnology with the Public," at 9 a.m. PST (noon EST) Sunday, Feb. 18, at the annual meeting of the American Association for the Advancement of Science, in San Francisco. He also will offer some positive recommendations for facilitating biotechnology communication with the public.
Katz's examination of the role language plays in the biotechnology debate touches on a number of crucial issues: the effect words may have on the public; the way experts accommodate information for non-expert audiences; communication models for risk-assessment communication; and the importance of public participation in the process.
Syntax, diction and the arrangement of ideas in communication all seem to play significant roles in determining its effect, Katz has found. "Even when a paper is clearly written,' word

WEST HAVEN -- The lightning storm that moved through the Top of Utah Friday morning injured a construction worker when a bolt nearly hit him.
The man, in his late 30s, was not immediately identified. He was walking toward his truck at the Granite Construction Company supply site in West Haven when lightning struck the truck at 9:15 a.m., said Capt. Casey Naef of Weber Fire District. Because of how close he was, the man was thrown several feet in the air and landed on his face.
"He had facial injuries and hand abrasions ... and was probably knocked unconscious due to the strike," Naef said.
He was conscious but not fully alert when emergency responders arrived. Ogden city paramedics took him in an ambulance to McKay-Dee Hospital in serious condition, though he was "coming around" and started talking on the way there, Naef said.
The strike left burnt holes in the bottom of the truck tires, where the lightning exited the vehicle.
Someone getting struck or nearly struck by lightning is a fairly uncommon occurrence, Naef said. This was the first such case he's been assigned to since he became a firefighter.
The man was in stable condition as of Friday evening, said Abby Albrecht, spokeswoman for Granite Construction.
"He's been with us for a while. He's a very nice employee," she said.
The lightning developed during an intense local storm that dropped heavy rain for a short time in scattered locations.
"We had a disturbance that came through and intensified as it moved through the north and moved off through the east," said Linda Cheng, a meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Salt Lake City.
The storm is to be expected during August, when Utah is in its monsoon season, Cheng said.
The threat of storms is expected to remain in the Top of Utah through the weekend, mainly east of Interstate 15, as drier air continues to move in from the west, according to the NWS. The storms could generate brief heavy rains, gusty winds and dangerous cloud-to-ground lightning, the NWS reports.
High temperatures will remain in the low 90s, with nighttime lows in the low to mid 60s.

Britain has dispatched Prince William to the Falkland Islands in a helicopter for search and rescue operations – though nobody's fallen into the sea since Boxing Day 1998. I think William is there to watch for commandoes sneaking ashore to claim back the islands for Argentina. They last tried it in 1982.
But, one wonders, what would Britain do if, once more, they invaded the Falklands?

So guys I'll put this really simple.
I have a PS3 slim with a 320gb internal HDD (not sure of the model) and it came with the 3.40 installed. I've updated it to the 3.55 OFW which is it's current FW. Now I have some questions:
1 - Should I go to Kmeaw or Wanin v1?
2 - Should I wait for the v2 of Wanin or I can just install one of the current CFW, enjoy the current stuff and change later if the Wanin v2 is the way to go?
That's all. Thank you.
