Goal Accomplished!!!! - Stacia Naquin
Updated: 12/12/2013 - I finally did my pull up!!! It was a New Year's Resolution that took me ALL YEAR! But I did it.
Normally the neighborhood around Trailmark Loop, located near Airport and Powers, is pretty quiet. The kids play outside often and the neighbors get along fairly well.
But Sunday, they were all in a state of shock after they heard something that sounded like an explosion.
Several people came running outside to find a car sitting in one of their yards. The driver had rammed into a tree.
Police say he was going entirely too fast around the corner, lost control and slammed head-on into that tree.
Witnesses say there were two men in the car; they both got out. One grabbed a bag from the trunk and they both took off running.
"They kind of walked around and one man got some stuff out of the trunk and then they both ended up running away," Moeller said.
Police chased the suspect down and arrested him. They later told 11 News the bag had meth in it.
We talked to the woman who lives at the home where the suspect crashed; she was just glad that for some reason all the neighborhood kids, including her own, were inside when it happened.
"I am really just happy that my kids weren't outside playing. It's a really quiet neighborhood, so we have a lot of kids. They could have been on the sidewalk," Moeller said.
The driver will be charged with possession and hit-and-run.

Michael Patton Brews a Potent Theology
Michael Patton was just four years old when he first tried to teach theology—while playing on a swing set with a childhood chum. Patton asked the boy if he loved Jesus; the boy said no. When Patton replied, "Then you're going to hell," the boy quickly changed his mind and declared that yes, he did love Jesus after all.
Today, Patton's evangelistic methods are a bit more seasoned and savvy. As founder and president of Credo House Ministries, he has ample opportunity to reach both saints and seekers, primarily through that ubiquitous marketplace of ideas: the local coffeehouse. But not just any java joint. Patton has established what he hopes will be the first of many "theological coffee shops," beginning with the Credo House in Edmond, Oklahoma. The store, built in 2009, seats up to 55 customers and serves up plenty of good coffee, books, teaching, seminars, and lively discussion—much of it led by Patton and executive director Tim Kimberley. (Both have master's degrees in theology from Dallas Seminary.)
Patton calls Credo House a "belief-strengthening events hub" in which clients—ranging from college students to pastors to profs—will find "the walls dripping with theological meaning." He says it is a place "where people can learn, fellowship, study, and just hang out under the banner of truth and grace in Christ."
Question & Answer
What's the idea behind Credo House?
We didn't want to have to ask people to come to a church to have theological discussions; we wanted a more neutral environment, and coffee makes a good bridge for that. We didn't want it to be overtly Christian where you're going to run off the postmoderns and those who hate clichéd Christianity. We wanted a historical element, to put the words on the walls in Latin, theological words so people have to ask what they mean. Credo ut intelligam: "I believe in order to understand." We want a place where people want to ask questions and dig a little deeper.
You're reaching believers and seekers?
Yes. We're an intellectual hub from an insider's perspective, but we also want to show the viability of Christianity to others. We're trying to reach a postmodern, skeptical, disenchanted, suspicious generation—and those people are both inside and outside the church. Everything we do at Credo House, we want to be irenic. That's the big word we use around here, even when discussions turn into arguments. Be irenic. Be peaceful.
Give an example of a recent encounter.
A group of Mormons came in and started asking questions. The conversation turned to the Bible—the history of the Bible and the manuscripts behind it. They had no idea about all of that, and they were just blown away learning it. These are the types of conversations we love to have.
None of it would mean a hill of beans if your coffee was crummy.
Exactly. We want to compete with the best coffeehouses in town. But when we first started, I didn't know much about it. I bought an $800 latte machine, and I thought it was great. But when we hired Tim, he said we needed an $8,000 latte machine, a $1,000 grinder, and all this. I had a lot to learn.

Daily Volume To Increase in Compressed 2013 Holiday Season; 55,000 Seasonal Employees To Be Hired
ATLANTA, Oct. 25, 2013 /CNW/ - With the holiday shopping season just around the corner, UPS (NYSE: UPS) announced today it expects to pick-up over 34 million packages globally on its peak day, December 16.

Overall, UPS expects peak season daily volume to increase by 8% this year.

Key peak season dates include:
In addition, there will be five delivery days within the 2013 peak season where UPS will surpass peak day 2012. To handle the increase in volume, UPS will hire 55,000 seasonal employees across the U.S. to work as drivers, helpers, package sorters, loaders or unloaders.

why would you buy macbook air over this
By AW
from Houston, TX
Best Uses
This is definitely a good deal and you really get the bang for the buck. Very easy to carry around and it comes with a laptop case. Everything about this computer is fancy and sleek. The only con about this zenbook is that you might need to press on each key harder than you are used to. But once you get pass that I would choose this over Macbook Air.

Good Laptop. Bad Keyboard
By Marcus in Philly
from Philadelphia
Good laptop for travel. Very light, fast with super clear picture and terrific sound. Keyboard cannot be adjusted and is not sufficiently sensitive, so user has to learn to punch keys harder.

In the second part, the author analyses whether the right of publicity tort can be developed into a new intellectual property right. In a challenging study, the author discusses the justifications and property nature of this intellectual property right and its conflict with the principles of free trade and free speech .
The author concludes that it is possible to define a new assignable and descendible intellectual property right in which the principles of free trade and free speech are integrated: the Right of Persona .
This book will be a valuable and practical source of case law and literature on the protection of celebrities and non-famous persons against the unpermitted use of their identity by advertisers, the press, the entertainment industry and other media.

Women's Basketball Home | 2013-14 Schedule/Results | 2013-14 Roster | 2013-14 News | 2013-14 Statistics | In Review
Former Retriever standout Kristin Drabyn returned to UMBC as an assistant coach in May 2011.
Drabyn was a four-year letterwinner at shooting guard for UMBC from 2004-08, helping to lead the Retrievers to the 2007 America East title and a berth in the NCAA Tournament. A two-year starter, she is UMBC's career record-holder in free throw percentage (.887) and currently ranks second all-time in 3-pointers made (168) and third in 3-point percentage (.348).
Drabyn was named to the America East All-Conference Third Team as a senior in 2008, when she averaged a career-best 11.4 points per game and ranked second in the league with 2.3 three-pointers made her game. She remains one of just three Retrievers ever to sink at least 60 triples in two different seasons.
"I am honored to be given this opportunity by Coach Stern to come back to my alma mater and teach the game," Drabyn said. "I am extremely proud of where the program has been and where it is going."
Following her graduation from UMBC, Drabyn spent two years as a graduate assistant coach at Texas Tech, where she served as the video coordinator and assisted in the everyday operations of the women's basketball program, and in 2010, the Lady Raiders advanced to the second round of the Women's National Invitation Tournament.
Drabyn spent the 2010-11 season as an assistant coach at Holy Cross, where she worked closely with the guards and was involved in scouting, recruiting and practice planning. She also served as the Crusaders' video coordinator and directed the team's community service projects.
A team captain in 2007-08 and the president of UMBC's Student-Athlete Advisory Committee (SAAC) that same year, Drabyn won the America East Sportsmanship Award in 2007, as the conference recognized her community outreach efforts, which included working with Habitat for Humanity's Hurricane Katrina relief efforts in New Orleans in the spring of 2006 and mentoring local elementary school students as a part of UMBC's Make a Difference program.
"I'm extremely excited to bring Kristin Drabyn back to UMBC," Stern said. "She was a part of the greatest moment in UMBC women's basketball history, and she made great contributions on and off the court throughout her four years here as a player. She grew up in a basketball family, and I knew she would be a coach from the second I met her. Her basketball knowledge is well beyond her years, and she will impact our players immediately."

Part 1, Bisphosphonate Usage in Microgravity
Guest: Dr. John Jurist. Topics: This is the first in a series of programs focused on the use of bisphosphonates to mitigate bone loss in long duration spaceflight. You are invited to comment, ask questions, & discuss the Space Show program/guest(s) on the Space Show blog, http://thespaceshow.wordpress.com. Comments, questions, & any discussion must be relevant & applicable to Space Show programming. Transcripts of Space Show programs are not permitted without prior written consent from The Space Show (even if for personal use) & are a violation of the Space Show copyright. We welcomed back Dr. John Jurist for the first of several programs devoted to understanding bone loss in microgravity & the use of prescription the bisphosphonate family of drugs to mitigate the problem. Dr. Jurist provided talking points which you can find below this summary on The Space Show blog. A significant portion of the second segment is devoted to understanding these talking points so follow along. We started our discussion with an explanation of the bone loss problem facing those in microgravity. Following this brief overview, Dr. Jurist told us about bisphosphonates, the origins of this drug, how it was developed, how its usage, what some of the side effects are, some of the trials that have been associated with the drug, & space/NASA studies. Later in this nearly hour long segment, we talked about the human population & what happens to our bone mass at various stages in our life. We talked about gender, racial, & ethnic differences in human bone mass issues. As you will hear, there are gender & other differences among our diverse population. This led us to asking about using targeted genetics in selecting crews for longer spaceflight missions. Genetic modification was mentioned, especially for the long term, but for the near term, looking for better exercise routines & pharmaceutical modification/treatment seem to hold the most promise. Dr. Jurist then talked about bisphosphonate side effects. Fast transit time to Mars or a long duration mission destination came up. As you will hear, even if you get to Mars faster, you still have the problem on the surface of Mars. The big problem is we have no credible information on what the gravity prescription for humans needs to be so we do not know if Martian gravity is sufficient to mitigate the problem. Next, we focused on the need for an orbiting centrifuge, we talked about the size & spin rate of the centrifuge, & what to actually test for in experiments. Dr. Jurist suggested that starting with 1/6th lunar gravity made sense because if it was sufficient, we would know that anything stronger than 1/6th would work. If not, we should probably next experiment with Martian gravity which is about 1/3rd Earth gravity.
In our second segment, Dr. Jurist referred to his talking points which you will find on The Space Show blog. We went line by line so follow along with us. Despite interruptions, John stayed on topic with the talking points. Listener questions asked about how gravity & having a load on bones works & what happens in space when that load is no longer present. We talked about the time prescription as well as the load factor (G force). Toward the end, John told us about a reviewed radiation article from 2010 showing that radiation impacted bone loss so the issue in space is more complex than just microgravity. Near the end, John got a question asking about ETs & their thin, pencil like shape making them perfectly designed for microgravity. This was both an interesting & fun discussion, bordering on science fiction. Another question asked about fish, reptilian, sea mammal, & bird bones. Our final topic dealt with the release of personal astronaut medical information & others & the ways for private information to be legally released to the public.
Please post your comments/questions on The Space Show blog URL above. Email for Dr. Jurist can be sent to me for forwarding.
Dr. John Jurist Bisphosphonate Talking Points:
Bisphosphonate show Tues 8:00-9:30 MDT Talking Points
Introduction: Bone is incredibly complex with many inter-related factorsGoal: Brief outline of cellular, structural, and functional aspects of bone metabolism in order to help listeners better understand and appreciate the potential role of bisphosphonates (which is the subject of a future show)
Bone Function: Two types of bone – compact and trabecular: Compact is outer shell, very dense, and fairly strong
Trabecular – also called spongy, contains spicules, plates, and struts of bone tissue with lots of vascular and fatty marrow, called trabecular
Remodeling: Bone is constantly being turned over or remodeled with portions being torn down and constituents dumped into bloodstream and other portions being built up from nutrients supplied by blood
Very rapid bone loss can lead to kidney stone formation from calcium dumped into blood
Turnover rate and the volume of total skeleton undergoing remodeling at any given time tends to go down with increasing age (remember this – important)
Balance between formation and resorption (tearing down) also tends to be lost after about age 30, lack of activity, certain hormonal imbalances, diseases, etc. with resorption predominating – one rationale for estrogen replacement therapy after menopause
Coordination between formation and resorption partly controlled by mechanical strains on bone tissue (called Wolff's Law and issue in microgravity) – some evidence that mechanism is electrical in nature – rationale for electric and electromagnetic bone growth stimulators used to treat problematic fractures and improve incorporation of bone grafts
Cells: Stem cells differentiate (or specialize) into osteoprogenitor cells which differentiate into osteoblasts which are the bone formers
Osteoblasts create and secrete a protein and polysaccharide matrix called osteoid which is then calcified later to form the stuff we call bone
Interference in that calcification leads to rickets in children and osteomalacia (Greek for soft bones) in adults
Osteomalacia is often a result of interference in Vitamin D metabolism or dietary deficiencies
During bone formation, some osteoblasts "paint" themselves into a corner and get surrounded by bone – they are then called osteocytes and somehow maintain bone tissue
If osteocytes die in a volume of bone, that devitalized bone no longer undergoes remodeling but can eventually be replaced by a process called creeping substitution (remember comment about remodeling volume going down with age)
Devitalized bone can accumulate fatigue defects and eventually suffer fatigue fractures (called stress fractures – common in military recruits and deconditioned people who recondition too rapidly) if the defects are not replaced by new bone during creeping substitution
Other cells, with multiple nuclei and called osteoclasts, differentiate from marrow cells (monocytes and macrophages) which in turn differentiate from stem cells
Osteoclasts are the bone resorbers and destroyers
Autoradiographic studies show that their nuclei also came from osteocytes as well – presumably as they are resorbed during bone destruction process
Osteoclasts are related to multinucleated "giant cells" which are associated with inflammation in ways I do not understand
Bisphosphonates: Used over past 20-30 years in clinical medicine – brands include Actonel, Boniva, Fosamax, Aredia, etc.
Multiple mechanisms with different dose-response properties results in clinicians juggling doses and brands to get effects they want without effects they do not want
Bind to hydroxyapatite – the mineralized portion of bone tissue (calcified osteoid)
Inhibit bone resorption by inhibiting osteoclastic activity
Inhibition of resorption signals osteoblasts to slow down formation rates after a delay (but increases their lifetimes (anti-apotosis)
Bisphosphonates also inhibit mineralization of osteoid – especially at higher doses
That eventually reduces turnover rate and can lead to fatigue fractures with prolonged treatment (remember to call 1-800-BAD-DRUG)
Orthopedic surgeon (Frost atHenryFordHospital) figured out that cyclic therapy exploits delay in osteoblast inhibition relative to osteoclast activity and results in better bone mass gains
Bisphosphonates used in oncology to preserve bone and reduce pathological fractures with osteolytic tumors such as breast and prostate cancers. Also to counter hormonal blocking therapy used for prostate and breast cancers, but side effects increase with duration of treatment
Interesting sidelight with oncology is some evidence that bisphosphonates reduce risk of tumor metastasis to bone and other sites (somehow involving same signaling pathway as giant cells?)
Oral bisphosphonates cause stomach upset – advise staying upright for an hour or two after taking pill – how does this affect microgravity exposure?
Intravenous bisphosphonates get around oral gastric upset, but placing line or port has risks too (most oncology patients have ports during active treatment)
Also cause osteonecrosis – especially jaw which I believe is septic or infective – and atrial fibrillation (talk to Bill Rowe on this one since he is interested in heart physiology in space)
Bone quality: Turnover rates and percent of skeleton not devitalized important factors in determining bone strength – measuring bone mass by DEXA or other means is not the be all and end all in evaluating bone strength and risk of fracture.
My Goal: General background on bone physiology and function to aid in appreciating upcoming show(s) on bisphosphonates in space medicine

I fear for young Scrublife.
Judging from his excessive spending and mid-nineties wardrobe, lever is still living in a pre 9/11 world.
What is the truth, what is the faithful lasting proof?
What is the central theme to this everlasting spoof?
How the fuck does he have twice as many friends as I do???
Human suffering. End the buttpain.
Oderus always fucks things up
wa kinda faggit says lol
This the same guy that just bought the Sgt. Pepper wardrobe reject?
Preservation through destruction.
I made a comment about how is new sweater is perfecting for wearing while mocking thousands of the dead. He gets mad but leaves the screen shot on his page.

"Woman Hollering Creek" was first published in Sandra Cisneros's 1991 collection of short stories, Woman Hollering Creek and Other Stories. Like her novel, The House on Mango Street, published in 1983, which describes the lives of Mexican immigrants in a Chicago neighborhood, "Woman Hollering Creek" describes the lives of Mexicans who have crossed the border to live on ''el otro lado''— the other side—in the American Southwest. Critically acclaimed as a major voice in Chicana and feminist literature, Cisneros has won numerous awards and has established herself as an important voice in the American literary mainstream as well. Cisneros's work is widely anthologized, and her novel, short stories, and poetry are part of many high school and college literature classes.
In "Woman Hollering Creek" Cisneros writes of a woman, Cleofilas, who is trapped in a constricting, culturally assigned gender role due to her linguistic isolation, violent marriage, and poverty. Weaving in allusions to women of Mexican history and folklore, making it clear that women across the centuries have suffered the same alienation and victimization, Cisneros presents a woman who struggles to prevail over romantic notions of domestic bliss by leaving her husband, thus awakening the power within her.

I know another Phantom X owner has swapped out the 36V battery with a 48V 20AH ping with no problems using stock controller. He said at 48V it goes 27 mph on flat grade. My Phantom X recently got totalled in an accident. I'm not sure what I'll do with it now...motor still looks good but I have no way to test it with the battery busted. I probably break apart the motor to see exactly what it is. Not up to that right not but maybe in a couple of weeks I'll post some info.

It's Peeta I'm thinking about. I spot him now, still stranded on his metal plate. I take off and Finnick follows without question, as if knowing this will be my next move. When I'm as close as I can get, I start removing knives from my belt, preparing to swim out to reach him and somehow bring him in. Finnick drops a hand on my shoulder. "I'll get him." "Cover me," he says. He disappears with a flawless dive. I raise my bow, warding off any attackers from the Cornucopia, but no one seems interested in pursuing us.

waterproof and snowproof which is great for my child as he loves to be outside as much as he can. He also loves to jump in muddy puddles and looking at the washing instructions it looks like it will be easy to get them washed and dry quite quickly.
20/01/2013 19:42:57
Nice thick, warm trousers ideal for snow activities and watching football matches in the cold and the wet! The optional braces ensure they stay up even on the slimmest child, but they can easily be removed if they aren't required
17/05/2013 13:53:22
Third pair of these I have brought for my children. They keep them, warm and dry and the children love them. They have outgrown them before they have worn them out excellant value.
21/01/2013 10:26:37
Purchased for my son, wasn't sure about the sizing initially but purchased the right size for his age and they actually fitted very well. Roomy and not too restrictive.
31/01/2013 12:00:49
It looks very good, has braces which are removable so a plus point. Can pair it with any ski jacket as it doesn't have any bright visible branding on legs.
13/01/2013 20:59:15
Got these for our youngest and fitted nicely we're hoping on there is enough room to fit for next year.......(oh dear I bet a huge growth spurt happens)
02/02/2013 14:51:17
Purchased for my 8yr old son for a ski-ing trip in March, but used in snow in January. Padded, very comfortable and kept him dry! Would recommend!
19/01/2013 15:46:38
Comfortable, warm and great for in the snow, they have the 'snow skirt' in them which keeps the snow from going into the trousers.
27/12/2012 09:14:23
2 year old grandson thinks they are great. In fact his mother couldn't get him to take them off after trying them on for size.
21/01/2013 10:14:43
19/01/2013 13:49:26
Fantastic for keeping kids warm, especially in snowy /wet conditions. Braces are perfect to support keeping trousers up.
22/10/2012 22:20:24
Bought for grandson going on a yurt weekend and I know he will get good wear on these throughout the winter.
21/06/2013 00:47:35
I didn't get these pants, but I think that they are good, are the same as other pants from this store.
30/12/2012 21:17:09
My grandaughter can't wait to wear them in snow! Worn them in the cold and rain, and kept dry and warm.
22/04/2013 13:05:19
gave a good degree of comfort for my 14 year old and kept him warm and dry on his skiing trip.
29/01/2013 09:14:38
great that braces can be removed and zips to side of legs make access easier with ski boots
07/02/2013 22:50:05
the adjustable strap on the bib is a useful feature for my tall but skinny daughter.
07/02/2013 23:10:10
I buy your childrens wear for my 9 grandchildren & have been delighted with it all.
25/01/2013 12:17:54
Good quality gloves and good selection of colours, my daughter loved the pink ones.
02/01/2013 20:50:51
Not yet worn for the purpose intended but the fit seems great for my 12 yr old son

Accreditation MattersWhy Accreditation Matters to You
By Elise M. Atkinson, CVT
Sure, this is a huge accomplishment for your veterinary team. But it also matters to you and your pet. Did you know that AAHA-accredited hospitals must have:
These are just a few of the requirements to be accredited by AAHA. The standards were created by veterinary professionals in the field. Your veterinarian could have been one of them. They were created to improve the care received by your pet and by all pets. There is even a section on housekeeping that includes recommendations for cleanliness and eliminating strong odors. There are many more sections, all designed to benefit you and your pet.
"I believe that AAHA certification makes for a safer environment for my pet to be treated in."– L.J. Jones, pet owner
L.J. Jones is a pet owner from Atlanta, Ga. When asked about AAHA accreditation, she said, "Since I have known about AAHA and what they do to protect animals and the people that own them, I would never go to a veterinarian's office that was not AAHA approved and certified."
Elise Atkinson is an AAHA practice accreditation coordinator in Lakewood, Colo.

Reviews by dippy:dippyMassachusetts 3.98/5 rDev +8.2% look: 3.5 | smell: 4 | taste: 4 | feel: 4 | overall: 4 I am just thanking god that this is not another octoberfest beer that reeks of cinnamon and othr "pumpkin" spices. A pumpkin beer is one thing, but on octoberfest is something completely differnt. This is represerntative of the later. Pours a copperish red with a clean white head on top. Not a lot of lacing on the glass, but the lace that is there might require some scrubing. Smell is sweet and malty. No suprise there. Some woodiness as well. The taste is also malty, but more like wood than bread. Nice medium roast. Good beer. NOt an amazing representation of the style, but definitley better than most. I will buy this again.

I am overjoyed to be reviewing something other than yet another pumpkin ale. From the CAN: "Prost!"; "Roll out the barrels!"; "Love beer. Love life. Harpoon."; "Pack it in, pack it out Please recycle". The Crack revealed a brimful CAN and the inverted Glug almost overflowed my special CAN-shaped glass until I backed off and let it settle. Color was a deep-copper (SRM = > 22, < 27) with button-bright clarity. The head settled into two fingers of dense, rocky, tawny foam with good retention. Nose had a caramel maltiness which struck me as being a bit sweeter than I like. Some nice, sticky lacing began to appear as I patiently waited. Mouthfeel was medium-to-full, approaching a creaminess on the tongue. The taste seemed kind of odd for the style - slightly minty with an underlying nuttiness. It was not bad, per se, but kind of unexpected. Finish was semi-sweet and nothing like I remember most oktoberfests/marzens, but not bad.

Appearance: Nice clear brown color with a thin off white head. No lacing on the glass. Smell: Mild malts and maybe some caramel. Mouthfeel/Taste: Smooth medium bodied. Taste of malts, bitter hops, and a slight hint of alcohol. Overall: This is a great Oktoberfest! I would have this one again for sure!

A - A 'bright dark' amber color with a thick foamy head. S - Crisp, aromatic hoppy smell. T - Light bitterness of hops quickly hits, and then fades off smoothly. O - I enjoyed it and would drink it again, but I don't expect a true Oktoberfest to have this degree of hop content. Quality brew, no doubt, but borderline-not-an-Oktoberfest. Compare with Thomas Hooker, Sam Adams, or Otter Creek Oktoberfests. Serving type: can 11-27-2013 18:00:50 | More by Carolvs |

More My Blue Heaven
I've got the top center together! Yesterday I sewed the blocks into rows, this morning I sewed the rows together. I like it!
The close up shot shows you the weird variety of fabrics I used in this quilt. Really, when I pull fabrics, I just go for color/light/dark...there are 20 years of fabrics in this quilt including such weird things as a western fabric with cowboy boots, ropes and hats...and a cutesy farm animal print with cows and chickents and pigs. It is just what was IN the scrap bin. I use it. I don't care how old it is, how outdated it is, how ugly it is...I just use it.
This quilt has batiks, hand dyes, 1988 paw prints and pin dots, novelty prints, shirtings, white on whites, cream on creams, plaids, ginghams, stripes, lots of 1990 calicoes, music prints....EVERYTHING. If you are new to making scrap quilts, please dare yourself to use everything! I see a lot of quilts out there where fabrics are separated so much by "kind" (all 30's repros, or all civil war repros, all batiks, all tone on tone or whatever) that there is no punch or whimsy to them.
I feel that my scrap quilts refect who I am because they have EVERYTHING from my whole quilting life in them. When sewn up, even fabrics that seem to not go together, GO TOGETHER!
I now have to contemplate borders..do I take the easy way out and just slap a couple on there, or do I do something fun? I'll have to think on it a bit. This is as much time as I can spend on it today as I am working on a customer's feathered star quilt that needs to be done ASAP and there are several others in queue pressing to be done too. Taking a week off put me a week behind, but it was a break I desparately needed.
The weather is gorgeous and glorious here....makes me want to be out in it!
12 comments:
That bit about using anything in the bin is something that I have to learn. I pull things to use and them throw them back because they are brights and everything else is muted, or whatever. I will have to keep trying, and try to learn from your example.My mantra will be "it works for Bonnie, it will work for me".
ReplyDeleteOH Bonnie, you have did it again - created another "Blue-ta-full Bonnie Quilt"!! It is gorgeous!
I love the pattern and as always I am drawn to your scrappy style! You are "THE Bonnie" I want to be when I grow up!!! ;) I am amazed at how much you have acomplished!!! Thanks for sharing with all of us! Happy Weekend! ~Bonnie in TX

With St. Patrick's Day right around the corner, my google reader seems to be spitting out hundreds of recipes for Colcannon.
And for good reason. This Irish dish is not only easy to make, it is also quite tasty. It's composed of two of my most favorite foods: kale and mashed potatoes. Sometimes the kale is replaced with cabbage (or is it the other way around?). It makes no difference to me… I am still smitten. Really, any cruciferous veggie mixed with mashed potatoes is sure to win my heart.
This recipe is just an elaboration on the popular dish. It's basically colcannon topped with a whiskey marinated tofu, fragrant toasted walnuts, and a decadent mushroom gravy. Altogether, it makes a killer main course.
I've always been fairly indifferent to St. Patrick's Day as celebrated here in the USA. I've never been much of a bar-hopper, and now that I have children, even if I had the urge to do so, I'd have to hassle with a sitter, and then we'd have a curfew–and well, it's just much more fun for me to snuggle up next to my hubby and sip green beer in our cozy living room. Maybe watch Leprechaun or something.
Anyways, the whole time I was making this, I kept thinking how wonderful this casserole would be for a holiday dinner… like Thanksgiving. Or any holiday where there's some sort of feast involved.
St. Patty's Day? Yep, that'll do.
So this year, I'm declaring Colcannon Casserole as our family's official St. Patrick's day celebration meal… complete with a few (gluten free) green beers. Now that's a tradition I can get behind 100%.
It takes a bit of elbow grease* and a whole lotta ingredients to get this thing put together, but it's well worth the effort if you're a fan of the green stuff + mashed potatoes like I am.

Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy |
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy (HCM) is a disease in which the heart muscle (myocardium) becomes abnormally thick — or hypertrophied. This thickened heart muscle can make it harder for the heart to pump blood. Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy may also affect the heart's electrical system.
Hypertrophic cardiomyopathy often goes undiagnosed, because many of those with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy have few, if any, symptoms. In a small number of people with this condition, the thickened heart muscle can cause signs and symptoms, such as shortness of breath and problems in the heart's electrical system resulting in life-threatening abnormal heart rhythms (arrhythmias).
Fortunately, people with hypertrophic cardiomyopathy often lead normal lives with no significant problems.

Introducing the new game that has everyone speaking a strange new language called Mad Gab! Read a group of simple words aloud, like: "Ask rude arrive her". Do you "hear" the answer? Try saying them again. Sound familiar? Quick, the timer's ticking. Did you hear yourself say a screwdriver? You and your team-mates have 30 seconds to sound out three puzzles. Guess right and snatch that card! Miss it and the other team can steal the point!Ruth and Elliot Handler and Harold "Matt" Matson launch a new company named Mattel out of a garage workshop in Southern California in 1945. The first Mattel products are picture-frames, but Elliott soon develops a side business in dollhouse furniture made from picture frame scraps. Harold Matson soon sells out to his partner, and, encouraged by the success of the doll furniture, the Handlers turned the company's emphasis to toys. "Leadership at Mattel is the ability to develop and communicate a compelling picture of the future that inspires and motivates others to take action. Leaders at Mattel align themselves with Mattel's core values, exhibit leadership competencies and drive for success in their business strategies. In this way, Mattel work's to achieve their vision of being The world's Premier Toy Brands - Today and Tomorrow." Every day as Mattel's 25,000 employees worldwide strive to realize that vision, their leadership team is guiding the way. Some of Mattel's brands include, Barbie, Hot Wheels, Toy Story, Power Wheels, Disney Princess, Disney Fairies, Thomas the tank, Thomas and Friends, Elmo, Sesame Street, Wow! Wow!

Well we got this game as a stoking stuffer. I read the instructions..and they were so complicated! I didn't know how to play until I read this and I'm still confused about the timer. Does it go off every 30 sec.? Not really. Also, why would we have to guess the answer if it is on the back. Fun, but pointless.

About Me child, Game lover, Looking for a great time
I am a kid, and my Mom got it for me and my siblings, and even my Mom plays it! It is very fun, a great family game.The only thing is that the instructions are confusing, but if you take your time and read them thouroghly, then you can understand the game and have a great time.

This game is a lot of fun for adults and kids. Now we only need a new set of cards because we've almost memorized these!
