Looking at nanotech through the lens of religion
Scientific advances and religious beliefs have clashed repeatedly in recent years over issues such as stem cell research and evolution. As nanotechnology becomes a greater part of Americans' daily lives, researchers have asked whether it will face similar opposition. Experts say that the answer lies in finding solutions to the larger challenges of communicating between science and religion. In 2008, University of ... Read More »

Blue Sky Disney: Perspectives In Tangent: Tokyo Disneyland Hotel...
Today is the second anniversary of the opening of the Tokyo Disneyland Hotel...
And it's an incredibly beautiful design to add to the list of Disney Hotels/Resorts (not as stunning as the DisneySEA Hotel MiraCosta, but amazing nonetheless). When Tokyo Disneyland opened back in 1983, all of the hotels were essentially owned by other companies and the Oriental Land Company was in a similar situation like Walt with the original Disneyland Hotel.

At my age, reading the fine print is more than difficult—it's sometimes impossible, particularly poring over the ingredients of skin care products. You know the kind: antiaging, antiwrinkle, antibagging, antifart-producing, anticlogging (noncomedogenic), anti-belly-fat-producing creamy stuff, the kind of stuff most guys don't give a crap about. I want to look as young as my mind says I am, and at the rate I'm going—forgetting simple math and acting childish—my mind figures I'll be entering junior high pretty soon.
One day I set out for King Soopers, my favorite grocery store, with the goal of reading and comparing antiwrinkle cream and lotion ingredients. Once I identified the best product for the money, I planned to purchase two so I wouldn't have to subject myself to this embarrassing ordeal more than once a year, like sex. I thought of carrying a magnifying glass, portable potty, and a bottle of wine with me, knowing this project would consume some time, which would give me time to consume some wine, but instead I grabbed my best seeing-up-close glasses, ones I likely scored for an entire dollar plus tax.
Into the store I skipped, demonstrating I was younger than I looked. After picking myself up off the floor, I headed toward skin care. Comparing these age-defying skin formulae felt much like choosing feminine hygiene products when I was a teenager or like evaluating condoms to keep on hand just in case. Really now, what size package was I buying for anyway? Forward-thinking packagers and marketeers should offer a condom variety pack, a just-in-case-the-first-one-doesn't-fit kind of thing. (Maybe they do already.) And for the small guy, shouldn't condom manufacturers offer padded sheaths just as bra manufacturers do for the less endowed?
I'd already been buying Olay Complete for a couple years, and Olay was promoting their new Regenerist product line like a guy promotes his best friend, so I gave it some attention. And here is where this whole exercise was worth its weight in coinage: Olay Complete with SPF 15 and Regenerist Age-Defying Anti-Wrinkle Daily 15 SPF had the same ingredients, but the cost was very different:
4.0 ounces of Olay Complete with SPF 15 cost $7.35 that day ($1.84/oz),
3.4 ounces of Regenerist Age-Defying Anti-Wrinkle Daily 15 SPF cost $14.50 ($4.26/oz), and further research showed that
2.7 ounces of Regenerist UV Defense cost $22 ($8.15/oz).
It's all about the packaging! So I bought two more Completes and smiled as if I'd just been laid in a field of soft, green grass with no bugs.
Now that my second one-ounce bottle is low, I decided to conduct research on its ingredients compared to my previously purchased Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle cream (1.4 oz for $13.50). (I hate it when they don't hyphenate antiwrinkle.) Both products contain retinol; however, the less expensive cream lists retinol as ingredient number 10. If my aging eyes are seeing correctly, and if my mind is calculating accurately, the more expensive one lists retinol as number 26.
So again, I'll likely skip, carefully, into my favorite grocery and purchase Olay Complete and Neutrogena Healthy Skin Anti-Wrinkle, knowing deep inside my skin-covered soul that I'm still going to get older and wrinkle. What I'm really in a quandary about is how to repackage myself so I can charge a higher rate. What would I sell, though?
But the bigger question is, if a guy repackaged, would he have two?

Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Place 1/2 pound of the butter and the brown sugar in the bowl of an electric mixer fitted with the paddle attachment. Cream the butter and sugar on medium speed until a smooth batter is formed. While the machine is running, add the eggs and vanilla extract, until incorporated into the batter. Sift together 3 cups flour and baking powder. Slowly add the flour mixture to the batter and mix on low speed until a dough is formed. Very gently, by turning the mixer on and then off, fold the chips and nuts into the dough. Once the dough is all blended, grease a 9 by 9-inch baking pan with the remaining butter and dust with the 1 tablespoon of flour. Pour the batter into the pan and place in the preheated oven. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, or until set yet still moist. Yield: 6 to 8 servings

Self-administration of clonidine, oxazepam, and hydromorphone by patients undergoing methadone detoxification.
The extent to which hydromorphone, clonidine, and oxazepam alleviate the symptoms of opioid withdrawal and the extent and pattern of self-administration of these drugs during methadone detoxification were examined within a residential laboratory in three groups of patients dependent on methadone. Six times over the course of detoxification, acute effects of orally administered placebo and a single active drug (hydromorphone HCl, 3 mg, clonidine HCl, 0.3 mg, or oxazepam, 30 mg, all given twice daily) were tested, followed by an opportunity for subjects to self-administer the drug and dose of their choice. Hydromorphone significantly decreased opioid withdrawal symptoms and was more preferred for self-administration than the placebo. Clonidine and oxazepam did not significantly decrease withdrawal symptoms, nor was either drug self-administered significantly more than placebo. Clonidine, however, did induce side effects.[1]References

California road repair could cost $82 billion over the next ten years
New study says road repairs would cost billions
Posted: 03/07/2013
Last Updated:
277 days ago
BAKERSFIELD, Calif. - Roads in Kern County and across the state have a bumpy future ahead, according to a new study.
The study, done by a coalition of local governments, projects road repairs for the states 482 cities would cost 82 billion dollars.
The study used a ranking system to rate current road conditions as "good", "at risk", or "failure".
The majority of California's roads were considered "at risk" and if nothing is done over the next ten years a quarter of the states streets would earn a "fail" rating.
Kern county alone would need around $3 billion dollars to keep our local roads and bridges up to par.
The study did not specify where the billions of dollars would come from to pay for repairs.

Foreign Investors Expect Better Russia-EU Ties - Deputy PM

- Forum in Davos focuses on role of modern communications
DAVOS, January 24 (RIA Novosti) - Foreign investors, who met with Russian Prime Minister Dmitry Medvedev in Davos on Wednesday, expressed their concern about worsening ties between Russia and the EU, Russian deputy premier Arkady Dvorkovich said.
"The investors said they were worried by the fact that ties between Russia and the European Union show little improvement or even get worse. This is not the best environment to work in. Everyone expects constructive relations and hopes that the situation will get better," Dvorkovich told journalists on Wednesday evening.
He said that despite the issues, the opinion of foreign investors about Russia improves.
"In 2007 only 7-8 percent of companies [working in Russia] said Russia's investment climate was good, but now the figure stands at 35-37 percent," the deputy premier said.

- bielecSure they do...11:09, 24/01/2013And what they mean by this is increased opening and exploitation of Russia's resources and markets. Their only concern is THEIR profit and THEIR future control over Russia.
Russia should be wise and should not slide into a colonial economy model. Most countries that deregulate their foreign investment policies quickly end up being de-industrialized, poor, and politically dependent. This, of course, is part of the game and I am sure that Russian authorities are well aware of it.

The Illegals
But when he started going off on "the illegals" the other day, I had to speak up.
"The goddam illegals are the problem!," he said. "They're sucking us dry! Did you know that illegals can collect social security?"
"Um, no, actually, they can't," I said.
"Oh yes they can! They can collect social security, and they can get driver's licenses, and they can vote! And you know damn well they're all gonna vote for Obama!," he said.
Okay, time to start googling. Because I don't claim to know it all. And unlike my boss, who believes everything his Tea Party nutjob friends tell him, I prefer to get the facts before I start talking.
Web searches done, I handed him a sheaf of papers. "Here you go," I said. "They can't collect social security, they can't get driver's licenses, at least in most states, and they can't vote."
"Well, they just do it ILLEGALLY," he said.
I was prepared for that. One of the sites I visited had mentioned it. "There were fourteen cases of undocumented persons voting, in the past several years. FOURTEEN. Out of how many millions of votes cast? And you're worried about fourteen cases?"
Well, no, of course he's not worried about fourteen cases. He's worried because Glenn Beck and Rush Limbaugh keep telling him that "the illegals" are the one of the reasons his entire rich-white-man entitlement is swirling around on its way down the drain, and he's frightened.
But you know what? From now on, every time he starts spouting this ridiculous bullshit that Fox News feeds him, I'm going to fight back with facts.
And you know why? Because that privileged white man made more than five times what I did last year. Which is fine. He worked for it. But you know what's not fine? I paid more in taxes than he did.
And that's not right. And to hear him bitching about the f*cking "illegals" being the source of the country's woes? Makes me sick. Because HE'S the problem. Him and his tax cuts and his screw-the-poor attitude and his absolute willingness to fund unnecessary wars to prop up the military-industrial machine, because his rich buddies all run factories that supply the armed forces. HE's the problem.
And I'm going to learn some things in the process. When the boss spouted off about illegals collecting social security, well, I was pretty sure that they couldn't, but I wasn't 100% sure. So I did a little research, and five minutes later, I knew. For sure.
Ain't facts glorious things?
4 comments:
And they pay the same sales taxes as everyone else...and since they make a shitload less than Mr. Boss, the 8% they pay is a proportionally greater slice of their salary than his slice. Hey, the poor pay higher taxes than the rich AGAIN!
Wonder why that is?! Something to do with the jacked way that we elect only the extremely affluent to positions of legislative influence, perhaps?

One of the problems of the right v. left is that the right has always won the shouting match. Meanwhile, the left looks weak because we try to listen, get our facts straight, and be open-minded to other points of view.
Unfortunately, it is time for the left to both get our facts straight and shout the loudest. Good for you for standing up to him and not succumbing to the "everyone's entitled to their opinions" philosophy. Sure, people can have and express opinions, but they need to be reminded that those expressions have consequences.
BTW, in case you need more to say to your boss:
1. Undocumented immigrants see how corrupt and useless our democracy is. Voting in our elections isn't a priority for them. They'd rather go back to their home country and vote so they can help change the crap going on there.
2. People can drive without a driver's license. Having a license means they're easier to track down. The ones who get licenses are trying to show that they want to play by the rules as much as possible.
3. Undocumented workers pay taxes. Not just sales tax--they get paychecks with deductions taken out just like everyone else. The government won't give out green cards to just anybody, but they'll gladly give out ITIN (a tax ID).

bridgett, yeah, let's face it, in order to get elected to higher office, you're gotta either be rich yourself or have a viewpoint that appeals to the rich, so they'll fund your campaign.
Kate, thanks for the talking points. I know I'm never gonna change this man's viewpoint, but at least I can try. What baffles me is that this is an intelligent man who is not wholly without compassion. And yet, the things he believes ...
and Laura, thanks for stopping by! Thanks for the link - I really want to read that book now. It's that whole "I got mine, now screw the rest of you" attitude that baffles me. Oh, sure, there are exceptions - just look at Bill and Melinda Gates. But by and large, people like my boss go apoplectic at the idea that they have any more obligation, either monitarily (tax-wise) or morally (I can give someone a leg up), than somebody making 30K a year. I swear to God, my boss thinks that donating to charity is something the little people do. It's just ... perplexing. - Wed Oct 24, 07:46:00 PM EDT

Bobby Darin
Bobby Darin
There's been considerable discussion about whether Bobby Darin should be classified as a rock & roll singer, a Vegas hipster cat, an interpreter of popular standards, or even a folk-rocker. He was all of these and none of these. Throughout his career he made a point of not becoming committed to any one style at the exclusion of others; at the height of his nightclub fame he incorporated a folk set into his act. When it appeared he could have gone on indefinitely as a sort of junior version of Frank Sinatra, he would periodically record pop/rock and folk-rock singles whose principal appeal lay outside of the adult pop market. At one point he started calling himself Bob Darin and recorded songs with vague anti-establishment overtones that could be said to be biting the largely bourgeois hands that fed his highest-paying gigs. It may be most accurate to say that Darin was, above all, a singer who wanted to do a lot of things, rather than make his mark as a particular stylist. That may have cost him some points as far as making it to the very top of certain genres, but also makes his work more versatile than almost any other vocalist of his era.

Changing exhibits and a good place to host a birthday party.
No one wants to be told about good habits on a trip but they do it in a fun none preachy way. Lots of science also. Great interactive for kids. Lots of space. You will be happy you stopped for a break or on a rainy day.
Very nice for children 8 and under. People friendly and helpful.

I took my daughter to the Health Adventure thinking that maybe she would be too old for it at 8. I was wrong!

Tomorrow we are headed to Charlotte for Metrolina's 6th Annual Information Literacy Conference. Metrolina is the regional professional organization for librarians in the Charlotte metro area. A few of us from UNCG try to attend every year and it has never disappointed. This year Jenny Dale and I are presenting on information literacy outside of the library walls (slides are below), while Amy Harris, Kathy Shields, and I will be "presenting" a poster on our reference intern program. Kathy Crowe and Amy also have a presentation on our Information Literacy Council. It is like UNCG just exploded all over Charlotte. Good times to come along with conference notes.

Property in Milnerton is almost equally divided between sectional title units and freestanding homes.
This apartment offers two bedrooms, one bathroom, built-in cupboards and an entertainment balcony. It is priced at R895 000 - click here to view.
This is according to Adrian Goslett, CEO of RE/MAX of Southern Africa, who says Lightstone data shows that 1 145 out of the total 2 033 properties in the Milnerton area are freehold homes.
As an established family suburb, with around 36 percent of its current homeowners aged between 50 and 64 years old, it is not surprising to see that 41 percent of Milnerton's residents have lived in their homes for 11 years or more.
The majority of recent buyers have been aged between 36 and 49 years of age, while around 34 percent of recent sellers have been pensioners of 65 years old or more.
During 2012 the average house price in Milnerton was set around R1.95 million, while sectional title property was priced at an average of just over R722 000.
This family home offers three bedrooms, one bathroom and an outside flatlet. It is on the market for R995 000 - click here to view.
Goslett says the strongest demand for property is for sectional title homes that are priced between R400 000 and R800 000, as is evidenced by the fact that 68 percent of all sectional title transactions between December 2011 and November 2012 have fallen into that price bracket.
The strongest demand for freehold homes fell into the R1.5million to R3 million price categories, in which 67 percent of all freehold sales took place between December 2011 and November 2012.
Overall, 41 percent of all property sales between December 2011 and November 2012 fell into the R400 000 to R800 000 price bracket, while 30 percent of sales occurred in the
R1.5 million to R3 million category and 24 percent fell within the R800 000 to R1.5 million price bracket.
Named after South African High Commissioner Lord Alfred Milner, the suburb of Milnerton was founded in 1897 and is one of the oldest suburbs in the northern Table Bay area.
Since the railway lines were installed in the early 20th century, the suburb has developed quickly into a popular and sought-after residential neighbourhood with a range of properties for a variety of buyers.
Situated just north of the Cape Town CBD, Milnerton offers its residents amazing views of Table Mountain across the ocean, as well as a beach and lagoon which are popular among watersports enthusiasts. It also offers a golf course among other amenities - from shops and schools to medical facilities and more.

- The picturesque old harbor of Jakarta was built in the early 17th century (reconstructed and expanded in 1817) and today still serves as the port of call for perahu pinisi (sailing cargo vessels). Navigated primarily by Bugis and Makassarese traders, these charming and colorful vessels form one of the world's few major commercial sailing fleets, transporting raw materials from Sumatra, Kalimantan and Sulawesi. Visitors will marvel at the amazing strength of the sailors and workers who load and unload goods manually without the help of any equipment. A conversation with them sometimes earns an invitation aboard.

Vitamin D: newly discovered actions require reconsideration of physiologic requirements
Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, Volume 21, Issue 6, 1 June 2010, Pages 375-384
Daniel D. Bikle
AbstractVitamin D is not just for preventing rickets and osteomalacia. Recent findings in animal experiments, epidemiologic studies and clinical trials indicate that adequate vitamin D levels are important for cancer prevention, controlling hormone levels and regulating the immune response. Although 25 hydroxyvitamin D (25OHD) levels >10 ng/ml can prevent rickets and osteomalacia, these levels are not sufficient to provide these more recently discovered clinical benefits. Rather, levels of 25OHD >30 ng/ml are generally recommended. Determining optimal levels of 25OHD and the amount of vitamin D supplementation required to achieve those levels for the numerous actions of vitamin D will only be established with additional trials. In this review, these newer applications are summarized and therapeutic considerations are provided.

Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, Volume 13, Issue 5, 1 July 2002, Pages 189-194
Theodore C Friedman and Keith C Norris
AbstractDietary vitamin D is a prohormone that is metabolized to the bioactive vitamin D hormone, 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D [1,25-(OH)2D]. 1,25-(OH)2D has been implicated in a variety of regulatory pathways that extend well beyond its traditional function in Ca2+ homeostasis. In uncovering these diverse functions, investigators have focused on the complex interaction between 1,25-(OH)2D and parathyroid hormone (PTH). Here, we present an overview of the functions of vitamin D hormone and PTH in the clinical context of secondary hyperparathyroidism. We discuss recent developments in treatment that address imbalances in vitamin D hormone and PTH levels, supporting the argument that early intervention can reduce the risk of metabolic complications caused by vitamin D hormone deficiency in patients with chronic kidney disease.

David E. Prosser and Glenville Jones
AbstractSix cytochrome P450 (CYP) isoforms have been shown to hydroxylate vitamin D. Four of these, CYP27A1, CYP2R1, CYP3A4 and CYP2J3, are candidates for the enzyme vitamin D 25-hydroxylase that is involved in the first step of activation. The highly regulated, renal enzyme 25-hydroxyvitamin D-1α-hydroxylase contains the component CYP27B1, which completes the activation pathway to the hormonal form 1α,25-dihydroxyvitamin D3. A five-step inactivation pathway from 1α,25-(OH)2D3 to calcitroic acid is attributed to a single multifunctional CYP, CYP24A1, which is transcriptionally induced in vitamin D target cells by the action of 1α,25-(OH)2D3. On the basis of alignments and crystal structures of other CYPs, homology models of vitamin-D-related CYPs have been generated. Two human forms of rickets caused by mutations of CYP2R1 and CYP27B1, as well as mouse knockout models of CYP27A1, CYP27B1 and CYP24A1, are helping us to establish the full in vivo physiological roles of the vitamin-D-related hydroxylases.

Brief review
Calcitriol-resistant rickets due to vitamin D receptor defects
Ze'ev Hochberga and Yossef Weismanb
a Department of Pediatrics, the Rambam Medical Center, Haifa 31096, Israel
b Department of Pediatrics and the Bone Disease Unit, Sackler Faculty of Medicine and Dana Children's Hospital, Tel-Aviv, 62262 Israel
Calcitriol-resistant rickets (CRR) is an autosomal recessive disease due to a defect in the vitamin D receptor (VDR) or a site distal to it. The main characteristics are extreme rickets, with growth attenuation, osteomalacia, secondary hyperparathyroidism, severe dental caries, and alopecia. Serum studies reveal hypocalcemia, hypophosphatemia, very high calcitriol, and increased alkaline phosphatase levels. The clinical and chemical abnormalities do not respond to therapy with high-dose vitamin D, indicating target organ unresponsiveness. Eleven different mutations in the gene-encoding VDR have thus far been reported. They affect either the C-terminal ligand-binding region or the N-terminal DNA binding zinc-fingers sequences, with mutation hot spots identified at conserved sequences among the steroid-thyroid receptors superfamily. These result in impaired calcitriol binding to target organs, signified in vitro as failure of fibroblasts to bind [3H]calcitriol or to respond to calcitriol by 24-hydroxylase activity enhancement. Receptor studies and mutational analyses are used for prenatal diagnosis of CRR. Therapy with high-dose calcium overcomes the VDR defect, normalizes serum calcium, and maintains bone remodeling and mineral apposition. These responses to therapy have interesting implications upon our understanding of the potential role of calcium alone and that of vitamin D in bone physiology. Like other hormone-resistant diseases, CRR, with its various mutations, provides the opportunity for investigating the nature of vitamin D and of VDR physiology, which has been only partially explored to date.

The lack of a specific reference to President Obama rubs some people the wrong way, and State Board of Education member Lawrence Allen Jr., D-Houston, plans to fix it with an amendment Thursday.
SBOE MemberLawrence Allen Jr. D-Houston |
Allen said he's proud of Barack Obama - not because he's the first African American president but because he is "the most qualified president that we have seen in our life time."
Rep. Alma Allen, D-Houston, urged the board to specifically mention Obama in the history curriculum standards.
State Rep.
Alma Allen, D-Houston> |
Rep. Allen, let me thank you. I think everyone knows our relationship," her son said.
His mother is a former schoolteacher, principal, administrator and once
occupied the State Board seat that her son now sits in.
Lawrence explained to his colleagues and to the audience that his mother did not teach him not to make decisions based on black or white but "what's right or what's wrong."
His mom's response: "You are invited to Sunday dinner."

The 17-year-old was charged with defiant trespass, disorderly conduct and resisting arrest. According to a report in the Philadelphia Inquirer, he called his father to ask permission to run on the field prior to doing so. The father says he did not grant permission. The MLB site has a better video of the event, but it will not embed.

He wasn't drunk / high / doing it on any kind of bet according to his dad. Just wanted the "once-in-a-lifetime experience" for what it's worth (not much).
... and he falls because, you know, he was tasered and you don't have a lot of control over your body when that happens.
Still, a really dumb thing to do. He had his fun and probably should have just let them catch him after a few seconds rather than get tasered... - 5/04/2010 3:29 PM

For every fan like this you have fans like those two mulletheads in Chicago who rush the field and actually do harm. Since the cops don't know which type of fan they are dealing with, they are better in erring on the side of caution. Of course, that wont stop him from suing the cops, the Phillies and probably the taser company. never mind that he was somewhere where he shouldn't be and never mind that he was breaking the law, because it was all in "good fun".
Also because of this, the cops wont taser the next guy that runs on the field and when he starts slugging out one of the players, we will ask ourselves why that happened. - 5/05/2010 11:27 AM

A Facebook page by an American user is titled "Give Us the Volvo V60".
Thus, the Swedish carmaker's "premium sportswagon", which released in Europe in 2011, has a following in this country in spite of the fact that it has yet to reach our shores.
If the regular version of the V60 is not likely to come to the US, however, there is a strong chance that its plug-in hybrid version will.
This version will be arriving in European showrooms by the end of the year; and from the time the world first learned of its pending existence, journalists speculated on whether it would be delivered to America. A year ago, it was confirmed by Motor Authority that it would be available to American buyers, but only about a year after becoming available in Europe. Those Americans who want an eco-friendly Volvo and have $75,000 to spend on it will have to wait until late 2013 or early 2014.
Anticipating the plug-in's arrival, BusinessGreen, a business website dedicated to sustainable business, recently undertook a study of the car.
The V60 travels in three modes - "pure", "hybrid", and "power". It is in pure mode, of course, when powered soley by its electric motor; and power mode when the gasoline engine (diesel in Europe) alone is driving it. In hybrid mode, the motor and engine work together. The system is on-demand, and it is up to the driver to decide at any time what mode to travel in. Pure mode is only available when the battery is charged, but when the car is running in power mode, the engine can be commanded to recharge the electric battery.
Volvo calls the V60 the "world's first luxury diesel plug-in hybrid that also runs on pure electricity". According to the company, it can travel a little over 31 miles on pure electricity and almost 622 miles in hybrid range, has all-wheel drive in every mode, goes from 0 to 62 in 6.2 seconds, has a towing capacity of almost 4,000 pounds, has up to 280 horsepower, and gets about 31 miles to the gallon (it should be noted that these estimates apply only to the European, diesel version).
BusinessGreen clarifies this slightly. The towing capacity and acceleration speed only apply when the car is in the aforementioned environmentally-insensitive power mode. The green watchdog notes approvingly that it heard from Richard Monturo, Volvo's vice-president of global marketing, that the company tried out hemp seat covers, but decided that buyers meeting the V60's price tag wouldn't appreciate them.
The website's reviewer found the car "a pleasure to drive", even if the various modes and power-optimization options were difficult to get a handle on at first.

Some cool new stuff from my students~
Thursday, September 25, 2008
A sad day...
As we walked out of our Wednesday night routine of Awana's, this time leaving ALL the kids in cubbies or sparks, I noticed that my Autism ribbon was missing from my car. Now I know it was there earlier when I went into the Strictly Scrapbooking and when I went to the car repair shop to pay for my husbands car. This stinks. I know that it was probably taken my a group of teens or tweens who were just messing around, but it still stinks. My husband gave me his, which makes me sad that he won't have it but I know he is not as upset about it as I am.
The number of ribbons that I see for autism on cars grows more and more and I guess when I had mine I felt like I was a part of a group of people who cared and were proud. A group of people that had a story to tell and although I didn't know what or who they knew that was effected by Autism, I related to them and could flash them a smile or catch their eye and share a comforting, understanding nod. I don't know...I guess I just felt very proud to have it and to have been blessed to have known and love someone on the spectrum.
Well this is the third ribbon that I have had in a year and a half, and I will be ordering more because although someone may have my ribbon hanging up in their room next to a rock or rap poster, they can't take my story, my heartfelt emotion or my passion to represent those who hurt and are a daily reminder of disease.
I read all ribbon clings on cars and think of all the stories that coincide with each and everyone. The women who proudly stick a pink ribbon on their car right before they drive for the first time in months, those parents who proudly and fearfully place their camo ribbon on their car as they pray for their children who fight for our country. And especially all the faded "WE WILL NOT FORGET" ribbons. Although faded nothing can change to power behind them.
OK, sorry for starting to morning off on such a melancholy note. I had to get it off my chest.
I can only hope that this one lasts me longer and that eventually medical wonders will be able to figure out just how to make the ribbons become fewer.

Pics from my latest class
Joe the winner of the Prima limited edition Aloha box!!!
So here are the pics of my class that we had this past weekend at Scrapbooking Heaven.
Everyone had TONS of fun breaking in my new glimmer mists. There was lace, flowers and bling flying all over the place too! We altered everything that was in our sight! Nothing was safe.
I was mistaken in my last post in regards to my next class, it will not be this next weekend. It will be the weekend of the 4th in Irvine at Scrappin-Escapes. This weekend we are going apple picking in Oak Glen.
I will be teaching two classes at Scrappin' Escapes. One will be a creative paintable class and the other Tips and Techniques with using Acrylic Albums. Both classes will be full of Prima product, altering, techniques, glimmer mist and Sakura Pens ( have I mentioned how much these rock?!?!), not to mention tons of prizes to give away (glimmer mist, prima yummies, and sakura pens!). Jessica (the coordinator for Scrappin Escapes) just told me that she is offering a KILLER deal for the retreat, only $95 for 3 days of scrapping PLUS tons of giveaways!!! The classes are offered seperately so that you can pick and choose which you would like to take.
This week, I will be posting the last half of my Mistology and all I have to say is one word...
Glimmer Glaze!

International friends...
Again here is the link for the contest. If I get enough info regarding international shipping I will do a seperate RAK at the end of the month for my international friends. I just don't want ANYONE to be left out, we all are in this together and I would hate to have anyone feel left out. Especially Since I know just how hard it is for international scrappers to get product. I have a few friends in europe and south africa and am constantly reminded of how very blessed I am to have product available to me. So please everyone help educate me on any international customs and shipping charges!
thanks again and sorry for any misunderstanding, ANYONE can subscribe to my blog. I WILL be doing some international RAK's seperate from the state-side RAK's so that the chances of our international friends winning will be fair.

Wanna Play??? Free glimmer mist!!!
I debated whether or not to post a pic of the package I recieved today, but I just had to share my joy with the only people who would understand! Not to say ANYTHING bad about my family but I really don't expect my husband or kids to understand the magnitude of my happiness!
YES, today I recieved my design team package from Tattered Angels and along with what I already had I was able to have at least one of each of the bottles the carried in stock!!! So starting in tomorrows class, I will have EVERY COLOR of glimmer mist for my students to play with!!!
Things are starting to pick up in our area, I am teaching at Scrapbooking Heaven tomorrow, Scrappin' Escapes the next weekend, and I was just asked to teach at Scrapfest for Sophia Trujillo of Strictly Scrapbooking where I will be teaching one of her classes and also be doing a FREE make and take at the Strictly Scrapbooking booth. And you better believe that these bottles of glimmer mist are going to tag along for everyone to play with!!!
With over 100 bottles of glimmer mist, TONS of Sakura pens, and TONS of prima product to play with you are sure to want to catch at least one of these events. PLUS I will be giving away TONS of product from Prima, Tattered Angels and Sakura.
For more info click on the links to for info.
To celebrate, I thought I would do an RAK of 5 (1oz.) bottles of glacier glimmer mist to kick off these events. I will be randomly drawing names from anyone (local or out of state) that has signed up for my feedblitz newsletter. So all you have to do is sign up and you will be added to the drawing. I will randomly pick winners throughout the rest of September. So you have till the end of September to sign up. International bloggers, I am not to sure about shipping rates, so I will have to figure out shipping charges before I can enter you in the drawing, so feel free to email me first if you'd like.
What will you get if you sign up? Info on upcoming classes, challenges and contest. Also I will continue to do RAK's of my stash, so this will give you advanced notice. All in all it is a great way to keep up with me, my giveaways and any contests or classes that I will be hosting.
So here is to free stuff!!!

Forget pimp my ride

Left speechless...
I can't explain just what it is but life is changing and for the good. Today I was reminded that though times may be tough there is ALWAYS promise of a new day, and Gods mercies are new EVERY morning. Regardless of just how bad my day is, the next day I am promised a new one and if I chose to let go of yesterday, it is in the past and that is where it remains.
As always the worship tonight was amazing!!! I miss being on the worship team at my church, I miss singing my heart out, I just miss serving. But I know my ministry is at home and when the time is right, I can return. And I can't complain... I get to scrap and teach and meet new people, something that was never on my mind until I became a mom. Again, just another cry of gratitude from me.
Vicki Beeching was the guest performer and I was blown away hearing her music live. She sang Wonder of the Cross which brought the house to tears. here is a peek at the lyrics:
O precious sight, my Savior stands, Dying for me with outstretched hands.
O precious sight, I love to gaze,Remembering salvation's day,
Remembering salvation's day.
Though my eyes linger on this scene, May passing time and years not steal
The power with which it impacts me, The freshness of its mystery,
The freshness of its mystery.
May I never lose the wonder,The wonder of the cross.
May I see it like the first time, Standing as a sinner lost,
Undone by mercy and left speechless,Watching wide eyed at the cost.
May I never lose the wonder,The wonder of the cross.
This song just moves the house. I love every word of it. It reminds me of the day I gave my life to Christ, here I was this broken girl trying to keep it together in a world that was tearing me apart. I began going to Cottonwood with my boyfriend (now husband) knowing that there was something bigger than me calling at my heart. It was July 7th 2001, and a sudden force took over me and I was no longer insecure, no longer unsure, no longer struggling. It was as if all of my questions had been answered even some I had never thought to ask. I stood there humbly and absorbed all that was meant to be. Although it sounds like it was all roses life began at that moment, a month later we found out we were pregnant and two weeks later we were married. Although not as we planned our life is still full and wonderful. We have had our ups and downs but all in all we have held strong together and in our faith and made it out victorious. I can only share my testimony with the world in hopes that God receives all the glory he can for each and every miracle he has done in my life.
So this song, this day this journey...
Even though I have tried to sum it up with this one post, I can't. I still stand in awe and where I started, where I am now and where I am headed. It is more than I could have ever possibly imagined for myself and for that I am in total gratitude and left speechless.

The silver lining...
First off, THANK YOU!!! to all of you who have emailed, called, posted well wishes. I am doing alot better, I still need to realize that I am not super mom ( I know SHOCK, I am human!) and take it easy, but it is my lesson to learn. Right now I am focusing on my kids, making sure that their needs are met. It is a total blessing that I don't have a whole lot of classes scheduled. The few that I have are on the weekends, which makes it so much easier So all in all, life may be a little tough, but it is still GOOD!

Fargo, ND (Sports Network) - Over the course of a season, it's important to win games, but it's equally important to beat your rival. Especially when you get to do that twice in one season, let alone in the playoffs.
That's just what No. 1-seeded North Dakota State accomplished Saturday in the FCS playoff second round, toppling rival South Dakota State, 28-3, in the 100th all-time meeting between the two schools.
It was also the second time in 22 days the Bison defeated their rival from the south behind yet another stifling defensive effort. South Dakota State managed just 217 total yards - 196 passing and 21 rushing - while the FCS' leading rusher, running back Zach Zenner, totaled 46 yards on 15 carries.
North Dakota State (11-1), the defending FCS national champion, will host Wofford (9-3) in the national quarterfinals next weekend.
South Dakota State (9-4) jumped out to an early 3-0 lead after one quarter thanks to a Justin Syrovatka 26-yard field goal, but the Jackrabbits didn't score again.
NDSU quarterback Brock Jensen completed 15-of-25 passes for 110 yards and two touchdowns and rushed for another one.
Jensen found Garrett Bruhn from 12 yards out at the start of the second quarter, giving his team a 7-3 lead. After a Ryan Smith 32-yard rushing touchdown made it 14-3, Jensen scored his lone touchdown on the ground - a 2-yard rush with 3:04 left in the second quarter - giving the Bison a 21-3 halftime advantage.
Bruhn caught his second touchdown catch of the game late in the fourth quarter, sealing the victory. He finished the contest with two catches for 21 yards and two touchdowns.
In the series' 99th meeting on Nov. 10 - a 20-17 NDSU win - South Dakota State totaled just 209 yards of offense and Zenner rushed for a season-low 43 yards.
The Jackrabbits didn't find much success through the air, either, Saturday as quarterback Austin Sumner threw for 196 yards and one interception in the loss.
The Bison rumbled for 218 rushing yards, as John Crockett totaled 90 rushing yards on 11 carries (8.2 yards per carry) and Sam Ojuri rushed for 65 yards on 19 carries.
Coach Craig Bohl's squad held onto the ball for 37 minutes, 54 seconds, and limited the 'Jacks to 2-of-13 on third down attempts and 0-of-3 on fourth down.
The Bison have won five straight home playoff games dating back to the program's first FCS playoff appearance in 2010.

GRL saves you time and eliminates testing as a schedule bottleneck
Every year there are faster, more diverse connectivity technologies released into the market. More technologies mean more test time on more expensive harder to access equipment. GRL relieves bottlenecks in testing and helps customers rebalance test bandwidth with design bandwidth so products can continue to be released without delay
GRL makes testing affordable where you pay for only what you test
As connectivity technology bandwidths increase, so do equipment expenses and test times. These forces will continue to push internal lab expenses up. As the fixed overhead of lab expenses grow, so do the risks as technology and business direction changes more unpredictably.
GRL saves companies money and reduces risk by changing growing fixed lab expenses into variable expenses used only when needed.

NORMAL — Masterful. Brilliant. Shocking, and maybe a few other superlatives, too
Peoria Richwoods followed its game plan to near perfection and stunned top-ranked and previously undefeated Edwardsville 41-36 Thursday at the Normal West Class 4A Sectional.
Richwoods (26-6) advances to Monday's Bloomington Super-Sectional to play (Chicago Heights) Marian at Illinois Wesleyan. Edwardsville ends the season at 30-1 and has its string of six consecutive sectional titles snapped
Spreading the floor to accent its guards quickness as well as its defensive prowess, Richwoods grabbed a lead with 2:13 left in the first quarter and surrendered it for just 24 seconds in the beginning of the third quarter thereafter as a small gathering of the Edwardsville faithful, who braved Thursday's winter storm sat in a dazed silence.
"We were pumped, really prepared. We've been preparing for this game for the last two weeks," said Richwoods senior guard Brenna Detra, who scored 12 points but more importantly was the centerpiece of a pesky Knights defense that forced 22 Edwardsville turnovers. "We had a game sheet with us all day at school.
"We read it; made sure we knew who their best players were. We closed in. We boxed out. We executed."
Tigers coach Lori Blade credited Richwoods' effort.
"We were very uncharacteristic of ourselves tonight for probably 30 of the 32 minutes," she said. "But I will step up and give (Richwoods) all the credit in the world. They play great defense. They play hard. They play physical and we just didn't match that effort tonight."
"Richwoods is tough to guard one-on-one," Blade said later. "They do enough, they're quick enough and they get by kids ... No. 11(Petra) is awfully quick and No. 12 (Elger) is very talented."
With its spread offense helping offset Edwardsville's height advantage, Richwoods led 12-7 after a quarter.
Despite University of Louisville signee Emmonnie Henderson on the bench with two first-quarter fouls and in an effort to offset some of the Knights' quickness, Edwardsville went small in the second quarter. The Tigers pulled within 14-13 at the break.
Lauren White gave Edwardsville its only lead outside the opening minutes, 15-14, with a quick score to begin the third quarter.
After that, Knights standout Olivia Elger made her presence known.
Elger garnered nine of her game-high 14 points in the third quarter. She scored on a traditional three-point play to offset White's score at 7:17 of the third quarter and added back-to-back 3s later in the quarter to help Richwoods to a 29-23 lead after three quarters.
Richwoods maintained at least a two-possession lead the entire fourth quarter.
Edwardsville cut the lead to 35-30 with 1:42 left to play and had two opportunities to pull closer.
White traveled with 1:28 after a Richwoods turnover to stop one opportunity. A steal by Detra after another Knights' turnover at 1:15 turned the tide Richwoods way.
Richwoods scored only one field goal in the final eight minutes, but the Knights were able to hold off the Tigers by making 10-of-18 free throws in the final frame.
Edwardsville coach Lori Blade strongly objected to the closeness of the game being a factor in the Tigers loss.
"That had nothing to do with it," said Blade, whose team was averaging 67.5 points per game and giving up just 24.5. The Tigers had never trailed in the second half until this game
Henderson led Edwardsville 12 points, but sat for more than a quarter of the game. Aaliyah Covington added 11.
Edwardsville made only 14-of-42 field goal attempts and did not connect on a 3 until late in the fourth.
"Our defense was awesome," said Richwoods coach Heather Cassady. "Holding a team like Edwardsville to 36 points is incredible.
"Defense wins championships"

Our group made its third research trip in as many years to the tidal Amazon River, working with colleagues from the Universidade Federal do Para. We collected water-column and sea-bed data to investigate the sedimentary dynamics of the lower Amazon and its tributaries.
The Sediment Dynamics Group completed another successful research cruise aboard the R/V Clifford A. Barnes on April 2-6, 2012. We successfully deployed a second instrumented tripod and retrieved the first tripod for downloading, replacing batteries, and redeployment later in the month. Check out this new time-lapse video of the cruise, with much better quality than the first attempt.

No Sewing Here...
I spent a quiet weekend sleeping, reading and catching up on some Netflix movies. However, the desire to sew is still great...just delayed. Hopefully next weekend will be better. So did anyone else get a chance to sew? And if so, what did you make? And if not, why not? Cause I need to know if something is going around stealing people's sewing mojos! *LOL*

My sewing mojo was stolen back in July! So no sewing here. But I did start on a clean out of the sewing room (after a huge clean out of the attic and the study). I can feel a bit of sewing coming on soon.....

I finished the plaid skirts and got the twin set cut out. I made JB a fleece comfy shirt. I knitted a little bit and had a lovely dinner with friends.
I hope next weekend is better. g - October 27, 2008 1:05 AM

Even though you did'nt sew,it sounds like you did get some much needed relaxation.
I had a sew-in with my friends and started a dress.I also finish a jacket.It was a great weekend.Have a great week. - October 27, 2008 1:24 AM
- verobirdie said...
I've sewed a fake fur jacket, just for the fun of it. It is almost finished, I still have the bottom hem and the buttons to sew. I hope to post pictures tonight.
I had not sewed for many years, and finding your blog, as well as a few other related to sewing, motivated me again, and I'm enjoying it! Besides, I've learned quite a few techniques from you or others.
So thank you very much for sharing! - October 27, 2008 1:27 AM
- Kristy said...
no sewing here either, and I only have 9 weeks of baby free time so I should be making the most of it really! But I have been indulging in post baby sewing planning after getting the latest BWOF in the mail. But things are dire if you haven't come up with some new fabulous creation!

I cleaned up my sewing area post-project and hemmed 2 radiator "coozies", which consisted of measuring the radiators, deciding how much drape, cutting the yard-sale, cheap-feeling, tan poly fabric to size, and hemming the cut ends. The width selvedge to selvedge was perfect.
Now I can focus on choosing the next project!

Let me tell you, I spent my entire weekend in my sewing room. I spent a lot of time completing the first phase of my wardrobe -- the easy care knit jersey and matte jersey portion. So, I worked on 5 pairs on jersey pants, which took a little longer than expected -- the wide legs don't work on me; the matching tanks that go with the pants, and about 6 shirts. I also have a jacket and matching skirt in the works (a fun houndstooth plaid) and 2 shirts for hubby AND laid out the fabrics and patterns for the next round of power sewing. I probably would have gotten everything completed this weekend, but most of my sewing yesterday took place on the commercials!!

I finished a shirt for Mario for Christmas - black shirting with leopard print for the under-cuffs, inside collar band and inside yoke, with contrast stitching - it's a copy of something he saw while we were on vacation. Worked on a pair of pants for myself but I'm itching to get onto a project that excites me - shirts and pants I've made before, I want to do something different.
At least you got rested up this weekend. Nothing worse than a non-sewing weekend where you don't even have the reward of resting to show for it.
Have a good weekk. - October 27, 2008 9:47 AM
- Marji said...
Hi!! I hope you're rested.
This weekend, I Danced! Finished all the sewing last Thursday AM, and a few pics are on my blog. We must catch up. - October 27, 2008 10:34 AM

I feel the holidays looming over my head, and that is never good for my sewing. I must bail out of costume problems for the children. I need a new Thanksgiving dress. However, I also need to do a lot of "stuff" for all the standard holidays plus 6 of the kids' birthdays (which start on Wednesday, and stretch until Feb). I hope you get some face time with your machine next weekend!

Little sewing going on here I am at the block fusing phase on my coat. But, I have 3, count them 3, things cut out. No sewing on any of them!

I'd probably depress you further if I told you what I sewed this weekend, so we'll leave that alone. I think you did the right thing - a little downtime to take care of yourself is not a bad thing!

ahhh. Carolyn .- that you understand. sewing also has to be a way to relax. I had to sew, but out of necessity because my customers are waiting. Have a good week. Paco

I enjoyed the weekend by sewing a pencil skirt in a beautiful soft pink wool plaid to the background of a Project Runway DVD. I was so proud at how good it came out. Now all I have to do is wait for the temperature to go way down so that I can wear it to work.

No sewing here. I pulled almost all of the fabric out of its resting places. DH looked at all of the fabric and said that sewing is not a hobby, it is an obession. Later, he said that it looks like somebody was putting me out of the house. My sewing room looks like a fabric bomb went off.
He went to put the shelving unit together and some fool had taken the bolts out of the box. So now I'm stuck until he gets more bolts. UGH. - October 27, 2008 6:54 PM
- Nancy W. said...
Believe it or not, I did sew. But I made a pair of pants that turned into a wadder. It was a stretch crepe mystery fabric that just grew and grew and grew. No saving those pants
- October 27, 2008 7:34 PM
- Tanya said...
I did sew just not what I had planned to, I made myself a new ironing board cover and it came out very nice, you can see it on my blog. Don't worry your sewing mojo will be back.
- October 27, 2008 7:46 PM

Dear Carolyn, I'm so glad you had a chance to rest. I do hope you can spend a little quality time with your sewing machine this next weekend! What will you be working on?

I made two knit tops - had planned on making three but it didn't work out that way. We should all heed the call of rest, it is important.

My sewing mojo crept back this weekend, so I picked up where I left off on a jacket that has been hanging around for 3 weeks, but now that the temps are in the high 40s, not sure it will be suitable.

No actual sewing here either this weekend. (But I did cut out a skirt and vintage apron.)
Carolyn I've been a lurker on your blog for quite a while now... So let me take this opportunity to tell you how much you inspire me. So even if you don't sew for a few days, you have inspired others to do so. Thank you! - October 28, 2008 8:55 PM

Definitely, I am a big believer in hibernation. Animals do it, why shouldn't we? I spent the weekend panicking (DD left for Korea early Monday morning) and crying and eating chocolate (ice cream, cookies, etc).

No sewing here at the moment. Last weekend was my birthday and I went to see DD at her university for parent's weekend. It was a birthday surprise from my DH. Had a blast. Just got the cast off of my hand and start physical therapy next week to regain mobility. Hopefully, I'll be back at my sewing machine soon.
