Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol
Turns out that HTTP 418 comes from the Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol.
Turns out that HTTP 418 comes from the Hyper Text Coffee Pot Control Protocol.
Coming home tonight, I ended up behind a car with the number plate HTTP 418. I was intrigued by this, so I made a note to check it when I got home.
Just checked it on Wikipedia and the HTTP response code means "I'm a teapot".
This was apparently created in 1998 as an April's Fools Joke. I'm impressed that this is an actual response code, impressed that a sense of humour is still in the Internet despite the corruption by industry, and impressed that someone knew this and got a number plate out of it.
I use Midnight Commander a lot. I depend on it. Over the years, it's gone through a lot of configuration changes. At one point, I had the mc.ext file working nicely so when I had an image file highlighted, and pressed Enter, it would display that file with gqview. Gqview went away, and was replaced with geeqie. I reconfigured Midnight Commander to use geeqie. But somehow, my change disappeared.
Here's what I think happened.
The config files for Midnight Commander are currently in ~/.config/mc. They've been in lots of different places over the years, but this is where they currently live. The file that controls what handles files is mc.ext.
All the different file types are listed in there like this:
type/^JPEG Include=image
and further down, handling of type Image is controlled by this:
include/image View=%view{ascii} /usr/libexec/mc/ext.d/image.sh view ALL_FORMATS Open=/usr/libexec/mc/ext.d/image.sh open ALL_FORMATS
That will push images out to Firefox. Why, I don't know. I've read that file, and it doesn't mention Firefox. But in action, if I hit Enter on a file, it displays it in Firefox, moving Firefox from the window it was open in, and doing other things I don't want to happen.
I think in the past, I edited that file to force images to geeqie. But that's a mistake. Next time there's an upgrade, that file gets overwritten. If you want customised changes to be permanent, you must make them in your local config file.
So I edited ~/.config/mc/mc.ext and changed the Image section to this:
include/image View=/usr/bin/geeqie %f Open=/usr/bin/qeeqie %f
and now it behaves the way I want it to behave.
I've made a terrible mistake.
I've heard myself say that many times this year, and I said it again today.
I use ownCloud, and I use it heavily. I use the News feature the most. It's an amazing News RSS reader. I use it daily, many many times. I use the file transfer, contacts, calendar, bookmarks, tags. I use almost all of ownCloud to help me have a happy and productive life.
Last week, a little yellow notice started appearing at the top of the page, telling me that ownCloud 7 had been released and I could upgrade.
Last time I did an ownCloud upgrade, I ran into some minor issues. Nothing much, but I struggled a little to get News working again. This time I was going to be more cautious. I waited. After a week I checked to see if there were issues, and there did not appear to be. So I attempted the automatic upgrade. It went smoothly. At the point where it suggested I backup the directory, I considered it but did not do it. I made a terrible mistake. The upgrade proceeded, and it upgraded the database tables and structures.
After the upgrade, things looked good at first. Nearly everything was there and it worked. And then I started noticing the two big problems.
Tasks did not work. Tasks would attempt to load, but never finish loading the tasks in the database. News was not to be seen, but that was the same as last time. Last time, I fixed it by going into apps and enabling News. Uh-oh, News is not in the app store and I can't just enable it. I spent a few hours reading and fumbling and trying to make News work. I could not. The News section is so important to me, that I decided to downgrade back to ownCloud 6.0.4, the last version I had running.
Then I wished I had made a backup of the directory. And a backup of the database.
But wait, at 3:30 each morning, I do backup the MariaDB database. So I have a backup from this morning. I copied the ownCloud 7 directory in case I needed anything. Then I installed the code for ownCloud 6.0.4. Then I extracted the SQL for just ownCloud from my backup, and I loaded that in. Then I aimed at my ownCloud URL. It wanted to do the installation. I entered an admin account, and gave it the MariaDB parameters, and wow, I was back in business. The passwords were all wrong, different seeds, so I had to re-enter them. I enabled Tasks and there they were. I enabled News, and bless it, all my feeds were there and I had 70 to read again. But oops, all my files were gone. No matter, I retrieved them from the saved ownCLoud7 directory and copied them into place. And all is well.
I am back to where I was this morning with all services enabled and caught up.
Lessons learned – backup before attempting an automatic upgrade; wait longer before thinking about doing an upgrade; do more reading for the optional modules like News.
I should report these things to ownCloud. I will keep reading their notes and report the Tasks problem. I don't think the News developer has it ready for ownCloud 7 yet. I think I was premature in upgrading. I'll keep reading his notes and not upgrade till he says it's ready for ownCloud 7. I may be on ownCloud 6 for a while.
I already had Marvin installed, and I reinstalled BlueFire, and I went through the appstore and looked at other epub readers.
BlueFire was still twitchy, and didn't have a way to categorise books. iBooks had a way of categorising and separating books that I liked. I read a book in BlueFire and it's nice, it's got a good display of fonts and yes, it looks really good. But no way to categorise that I could see.
None of the other readers looked interesting. I read a book with Marvin. Not as clean a display as iBooks or BlueFire, but it had a cheerful feel to it. I know that's not scientific, but the display was good enough, the options are terrific, the more I used it the more options I found. Even Dropbox. And a Calibre plugin. And it has a way of categorising books and doing bulk operations on books. I loaded up some of my library and it took it all. I flicked between BlueFire and Marvin, and finally the convenience of Marvin won me. I deleted BlueFire and I deleted iBooks. Marvin is the way forward for me, for the time being.
I just hope they don't do what most apps do – improve them to the point of unusability.
I would have been happy with iBooks. If I had managed my library in the One True Sanctioned Way through iTunes, I would not have had the problem. But I manage my library without iTunes. I hate iTunes. It's a spreadsheet abomination that I use as infrequently as possible. So if a full encrypted backup of my iPad means that iBooks will shed all unsanctioned books, I either have to not back up (not an option), or use another ereader. I choose the other ereader. Marvin.
I would have to say it threw them away, rather than lost them. It seemed a deliberate act.
I settled down this afternoon to continue reading on my iPad, opened iBooks, selected the book I was reading. The book opened up, displayed my page, and then iBooks dropped out. When I restarted it, all my loaded books were gone. The books from the iTunes store were there, but everything I had loaded from my own sources was gone.
Earlier this afternoon, I backed up my iPad to iTunes. I don't sync books. I didn't change any sync settings. I'm not sure if this is related, but from my reading, it appears it might be.
I used to use BlueFire reader, but with the iOS7 update, it got twitchy. If I tapped a book the wrong way, it saw it as a swipe and wanted to delete the book. I moved to iBooks after that. But now iBooks is displaying irritating tendencies, it's all open again. I'm not going to use an app that will throw away books from my sources and keep the "official" sources. So iBooks is now out. I'll go back and look at BlueFire, but I'll also look at Marvyn. I started looking at that earlier, but now I think it deserves a better look.
I don't require much in an epub reader. Folders, non-twitchy UI, and not throwing away my books when it feels like it. That shouldn't be hard.
I acquired a mid-2011 Mac Mini Server. It's got two 500 gig hard drives in it, and 8 gig RAM. Running OS X Lion Server. The guy who sold it had started using it as a server, but never really got into web development. So he was using it for his photos and music. Then he needed money, so he sold it.
He had deleted most of his files, and he had erased most things, but left his Apple ID and other things behind. I didn't care, I wanted a clean start and wanted to erase everything. First I tried to install Mavericks, thinking that would erase Lion Server. Twice, it got about 4 gig into the 5.32 gig download and then stopped and told me it couldn't do it. I wasn't sure if this was because of download problems, or if it was a permissions problem with conflicts over Apple IDs.
Next, I hooked up an external DVD drive, and tried to install a non-server version of Lion. It told me it wasn't allowed to do that on this machine.
Then I did some research. Turns out there is a hidden partition on the hard disk. Reboot with holding down Command-R gave me a special menu. First up, I used the Disk Utility to erase the two hard disks. Then I asked it to reinstall Lion. Turns out it reinstalled Lion Server. But it downloaded more stuff for six hours, and finally it finished and it reinstalled Lion. This time, I got my Apple ID in, and it was the only Apple ID it knew about. Then into the App Store and start the free upgrade to Mavericks. This was the 5.32 gig download again. It got all the way to 5.20 gig downloaded, and then it froze. Ten minutes went by, then fifteen, then it rushed ahead and downloaded the last little bit.
I then got told that the Server components had been disabled. If I wanted them, I could go into the App Store and buy the latest version. I was happy with that. I don't want the server component. The Dock icon for Server now had a large X through it. I put it in Trash. Then I used Finder and put the whole Server app into Trash.
This is great. I just wanted another newish Mac Mini that will take Mavericks, and hence XCode, so I can do some development, and that's what I ended up with. I'll get XCode on it next week, and the 8 gig RAM will be a big help there. I'll take the other one home and use it for the same thing. So now, Anne has a newish Mac Mini with Mavericks, and I now have two of them. We can probably stay up-to-date with new versions of the OS for another five or six years.
After praising ownCloud so highly recently, I now have to report a problem with the ownCloud Linux client. Everything else works just fine – the webserver, the Mac clients, the iPad and iPhone software – the only thing having a problem is the Linux desktop client.
I have the client installed on my Slackware desktops, installed using sbopkg. The client depends on libocsync.so, and that depends on libiniparser. Both of these are add-ons from sbopkg. libocsync is a version of csync (a file synchroniser) that has been modified to work with ownCloud. It looks for the flag SAMBA_4.1.6 in libiniparser. I don't know why it does this as I do not use samba at all. Libiniparser got upgraded in April, and the flag changed to SAMBA_4.1.9. But libosync still wants SAMBA_4.1.6 so when I start owncloud now, I get this error message "owncloud: /usr/lib/libiniparser.so: version `SAMBA_4.1.6′ not found (required by /usr/lib/libocsync.so.0)" and it will no longer start.
The ownCloud client has been running on my work and home desktops for a long time, but I rebooted my work desktop and now the ownCloud client won't run. It's still running on the home desktop, but the next time I shut it down and attempt to restart it, it's not going to run either.
I think I had this problem happen once before, but I can't remember how it started working again. That's why I started writing here again, it's my way of making system notes for the future.
I think I waited a little bit and libocsync.so got upgraded to come back into sync with libiniparser. I have a number of options to try and make it work.
I have a theory that most really useful utilities get improved to the point where they are awful.
I've been using Midnight Commander (mc) at the command line, in xterms, since 1994. 20 glorious years of useful use. But lately I've been struggling with it. The defaults keep getting changed, or else the distribution defaults get changed, and I have to keep making over-riding corrections so I can keep doing what I want to do.
First of all, I don't want to exit from Midnight Commander and be in the last directory I accessed. Given that this is default Slackware behaviour, I would guess that many people want this. I do not. So every time I do a new installation, or upgrade Midnight Commander, I make the shell scripts in /etc/profile.d.mc* not executable.
Then I want to be in the left pane when it starts. I want Midnight Commander to start with my focus in the left pane, and if I told it to start in a directory, I want that directory to be in the left pane. I have it doing this now, but I can't work out how I did it.
But the thing that has started driving me to a rage is what directories it displays. I don't know what other people want, but I want the absolute simplest approach.
If I type mc with no parameters, I want left and right panels to be the current directory. If I type mc with one directory after it, I want left and right panels to both be set to that panel. If I type mc with two directories after it, I want the first one to be in the left panel, and the second one to be in the right panel. That makes sense to me, but I can't configure mc to give me that. Maybe I am just not reading the right parts of man or the documentation. Anyway, I have conquered this with brute force.
First, I have an alias so if I type mc, it runs my mc script in $HOME/bin.
Second, that script does exactly what I described up above.
#!/usr/bin/bash DIR1=$1 DIR2=$2 if [ "$DIR1" == "" ]; then DIR1="." fi if [ "$DIR2" == "" ]; then DIR2=$DIR1 fi /usr/bin/mc $DIR1 $DIR2
And with that in place, my blood pressure and my rage have subsided. Now it doesn't matter what the defaults get turned to, my use of mc will be the way I want it, how it makes sense to me. I am grateful that I can control this, to allow me to do things my own odd way.
I generally buy used Apple equipment, being reluctant to pay the premium for brand new gear. This means I spend less, but tend to be a bit behind. Right now, I have a Mac Mini stuck at Snow Leopard (10.6), a MacBook and a MacBook Pro, both from 2006, stuck at Lion (10.7). They work well, they do all that I need, but they cannot progress to the latest levels of Mac OS X. Normally, I wouldn't mind. But at work, we have a need for an iPhone app, and I wanted to explore iOS development. For that you need XCode, and XCode needs Mountain Lion (10.8) or Mavericks (10.9) to run. I cannot put XCode on any of my devices. So staying at the blunt edge of technology does not work if you want to do iOS development.
I needed a machine that could run Mavericks. I investigated Craigslist and found once again that most people selling equipment on Craigslists are complete arseholes who take hours to answer texts, won't give out phone numbers, give addresses that don't exist, and sometimes don't even have the equipment for sale. I kept looking at MacBook Pros that were from around 2009 and 2010, that are running Mavericks, and cost about $600. Generally they only have about 2 gig RAM, so I would have to upgrade the memory before doing anything serious with XCode. But the problem with these is that they probably would not be able to run the latest Mac OS X in a year or two. What I really wanted was a development machine that would be up-to-date right now, and continue to be up-to-date for the next six years. I needed to buy a brand new Mac.
Have you looked at the prices for brand new Mac Books and iMacs? Insane. I'm not spending that much money. I ended up getting a Mac Mini with 4 gig. Normally I would get it at Apple, but Best Buy had $10 off, and I had a coupon for $15 off anything, so I got it at Best Buy. Only 4 gig, but I can upgrade to 16 gig for about $150 from Crucial.
I got it to work, upgraded all pieces of software, discovered that I get iWork for free, so got that downloaded, and got XCode downloaded and installed. I am set and ready for iOS development. I have the Big Nerd Ranch book for tutorials on old-school iOS development, and some newer works on Swift development, and I am ready to learn.

How to Fake a Bruise
Five Methods:Using EyeshadowUsing a PencilUsing SandpaperUsing MarkerUsing a Pencil and Paper
Ever wanted to look tough? Fake a bruise! There are a couple of ways to do this, and many use inexpensive things you probably have on hand. Experiment for the best and most realistic "bruises".
Method 1 of 5: Using Eyeshadow
1Wet the applicator brush slightly (too much water will make it runny) and color the brush with the dark blue/purple eye shadow.Ad
2Apply your "bruise" on desired area. Make it about the size of two quarters.
3Rub some non-powdery, apple-red blush around the edges for a raw, reddish look after you've achieved the level of darkness you want.
4Blend some yellow in with the purple if you want it to look like it had pus.
Method 2 of 5: Using a Pencil
Method 3 of 5: Using Sandpaper
Method 4 of 5: Using Marker
Method 5 of 5: Using a Pencil and Paper
1Take a recently sharpened pencil and rapidly write over the same spot over and over on a sheet of paper for about 60 seconds.
2Rub your finger in this spot and rub the loose graphite in to your skin where you want the fake skin.
3Rub off some of the graphite and it will look like a real bruise.
We could really use your help!
foot care?
married life?
- Don't make the bruise perfectly round; it won't look real. Give it an organic shape; also make it darker towards the middle.
- Rub the "bruise" with your finger a little bit for a faded touch.
- All makeup should be matte, not sparkly. If your bruise sparkles it won't look real.
- If accused of using sparkly eyeshadow for your bruise, claim that you tried to cover it up with makeup that had sparkles in it.
- Use a purple, red, green, or yellow colored pencil to make it look more realistic.
- To get more graphite out of the pencil when you are rubbing it on your skin, scratch it on sandpaper every couple of strokes.
- Fake faded hickeys with pink eye shadow or blush.
- You can use some berries and fade them.
- Avoid lead. Use strictly graphite. Lead could cause a bad reaction to the skin.
- Use warm water and soap to get the eye shadow off. Water won't do. You may also use eye make up remover.
- The colored pencil trick doesn't last very long, but it's good for a quick glance.
- Don't put the fake bruises near or around your eyes.
- Don't get anyone worried about your "bruise," or falsely accuse someone for your "beating."
Things You'll Need
- Dark blue/purple eye shadow
- Wet applicator brush
- Red colored pencil
- Green colored pencil
- Purple colored pencil
- Yellow colored pencil
- Sandpaper
- Regular pencil
- Paper

Ari Shaffir's Skeptic Tank #193: Shiny Happy Jihad (an album commentary with Joe Rogan)
Podcast: Download
Click here to download in iTunes
Joe Rogan had me over to Freak Party studios to do an album commentary of his 2007 album, Shiny Happy Jihad. This is the first time I'm doing this where it's not the comic's first album. But I was there when Rogan was developing this material and I was there for the recording in San Francisco at Cobb's and I thought that added insight would make it way better to talk about this CD rather than his first CD. This is the longest podcast I've ever done. Hopefully iTunes won't have a problem with it. Emjoy your lives.

Momofuku is Japanese for "lucky peach"; it is American for a strange and wonderful little restaurant empire in the East Village. David Chang is a chef without borders – his highly technical cuisine, by turns Chinese, Korean, Japanese, Southeast Asian, and New American, is always market-driven, and mines the dark underbelly of the local bounty.
Galen Zamarra, chef/co-owner of Mas (farmhouse) and Slow Food NYC member, is an exemplary proponent of regional and sustainable eating. In a September 2006 interview with StarChefs.com Galen said, "I'd love to do more projects with Slow Food. And I'm really interested in sustainability, getting restaurants back to nature, and supporting local farmers." Galen is as good as his word (and his words are as good as his food). He is a great supporter of Slow Food NYC, having arranged food for several major events.
Another branch of Mario Batali's Italian restaurant empire, Lupa specifically celebrates the trattoria-style dishes of Rome. Sous-chef Alexis Pisciotta is particularly proud of their handcut pastas, made daily, and house-cured salumi, which is done using traditional methods. They bring in whole animals and utilize everything—whole cuts for curing, a rack for a special, the balance for sausage or ragu. Their everyday pork is from Heritage Foods USA, the chickens are organic, and they buy locally and sustainably as often as possible.
Lucy's Whey sells American Artisanal cheeses. They all made by hand, and all present "a distinctive flavor profile that reflects the animals, the region, and the ingenuity of the cheesemakers." The staff is passionate and knowledgeable, not only about the cheeses but about the intrinsic relationship between taste, terroir and healthy communities that is at the heart of Slow Food's ethic of food that is good, clean and fair. Full disclosure: One of those people is Chelsea Market store manager Amy Thompson, longtime member of the SFNYC leadership and our resident cheese expert.
Jimmy Carbone is "Italian on both sides." His amiable, eponymous dive bar*, well below the East 7th Street grade, is a place where, alone or in good company, one can hide comfortably from the world above. There are a dozen beers on draught and as many by the neck, including a number of regionally produced brews, and the menu includes local, farmstead cheeses supplied by local cheesemongers, and all-local pickles from Rick's Picks.
Chef Ignacio Mattos grew up in his Italian grandmother's kitchen on the family farm, and those origins flavor a menu that celebrates both authentic Italian cuisine and local agriculture—Anson Mills polenta and Chatham cod share space with Umbrian chickpeas and Trapanese sea salt, and a wonderful array of house-made salumi, from coppa to lardo. The dining room, often mistaken for an antique shop, is all rustic warmth and conviviality, and the wine cellar is available for private events.
Hundred Acres is named for "Hell's Hundred Acres," the gritty, pre-1970 moniker for SoHo. It is the sibling of Marc Meyer's Snail of Approval-winning restaurants Five Points and Cookshop and occupies the old space of Provence, the late French resto air-kissed adieu by a clientele of models and their adorers. Hundred Acres is a far slower place. On entering, guests encounter a wooden table invitingly laden with fresh, local produce...an enticing prelude to the coming meal.
Hot Bread Kitchen increases economic security for foreign-born and low-income women and men by opening access to the billion dollar specialty food industry. We do this through our culinary workforce and business incubation programs, Project Launch and HBK Incubates.
To help offset the cost of our training and to build esteem in the contribution of immigrants, we sell delicious multi-ethnic breads that are inspired by our bakers and the many countries that they come from. We make it a priority to use local and organic ingredients.
New Amsterdam Market is a reinvention of the Public Market, once a prevalent institution in the City of New York. New Amsterdam Market is currently held in the parking lot fronting the Fulton Fish Market at the South Street Seaport, a district in which public markets have been held since 1642. Revived for our present times and needs, New Amsterdam Market provides an outlet for for small, local butchers, grocers, mongers, and other vendors who source, produce, distribute, and sell foods made with regional ingredients.

- saudi youths mount cars on bricks
Why are Saudi youths mounting cars on brick plinths?
by John Neff (RSS feed) on Jul 16th, 2012 at 7:00PM
We're not going to pretend that everything American kids do with their cars makes sense. Ghost riding, tray sliding and soaping sayings like "Sexy Seniors 2012 XOXOXO!!!" on car windows comes to mind. To be young and a car owner (or car borrower, in the case of most kids) often means doing strange and stupid stuff with your ride, and this rite of passage appears to cross all cultures. These images of Saudi youths mounting their cars on brick plinths appeared online this morning without much context to explain why they're doing it or even how. The wire images only come with a caption that... Read More

A twelve-ounce square of attractively grilled New York strip steak, prepared to our requested medium rare, was tender and well textured, with thin crunchy fries on the side sprinkled with Parmesan and spritzed, however unevenly, with truffle oil. "Roasted onion marmalade" turned out to be onion slices bathed in balsamic vinegar, while the "watercress salad" was simply watercress.
Service needs to be polished, which in this case means more familiarity with the menu and wines (a short, globally diverse selection), and greater attention to detail. On our first visit the waiter neglected to hand out the sushi menu, or to even mention they had sushi (on the second visit we were presented with a list of about a dozen creative rolls). Another time our entrées were placed on the table by one waiter as the other simultaneously removed the appetizer plates. Nice choreography, but most diners prefer taking a breath between courses.
Pescado is such a pretty place that if they start taking advantage of the bounty of superb local fish at their fingertips, and, even more important, bring the quality of their cuisine up a few notches, they'll be just fine. The meats and fish are fresh, portions are fair, and the staff hospitable. It's also true that Pescado is far from alone in hyping its food with deceptive descriptions -- it would not surprise me to learn that many menu scribes in this town have gone on to become successful political speechwriters.

Does Public Relations Have a Problem Relating to the Public?
Weber Shandwick's president of digital Chris Perry addressed the headlining question in a Forbes article inspired by a recent conference on the future of media and PR. Here's the issue as he sees it:
"The continued, misguided belief that marketing and PR teams are smarter than people they are trying to reach."
A common complaint made against media "elites" and board members alike is that they underestimate the intelligence of their audience. Does PR have the same problem? Here's a key quote from media critic Douglas Rushkoff, whose new book Present Shock is an analysis of the current state of things:
"This is an industry fathered by a man — Ed Bernays — that believed that people were too stupid to run their own lives."
That stings. But how many times do we remind ourselves to keep the message simple so the public understands it?

The relationship between the Islamic world and newspaper cartoons has been a hot international topic ever since the Danish newspaper Jyllandss-Posten published cartoons depicting the prophet Mohammed in 2009.

Robert Redford opened the Sundance Film Festival by demanding an apology for the war in Iraq. The festival features several decidedly political films, including "Chicago 10," which centers on demonstrations at the 1968 Democratic convention, and "Ghosts of Abu Ghraib."
Redford said he, like many others, had shown a "spirit of unity" with the U.S. government after 11 September 2001.
"We put all our concerns on hold to let the leaders lead," he said. "I think we're owed a big, massive apology."
The actor, whose Sundance Institute for independent film runs the annual festival, usually steers clear of political messages in his opening speech.
Festival opener "Chicago 10" recounts the demonstrations surrounding 1968's Democratic National Convention, which saw protestors clash with the National Guard.

The Morphological Interaction Between the Nasal Cavity and Maxillary Sinuses in Living Humans.
Summary of "The Morphological Interaction Between the Nasal Cavity and Maxillary Sinuses in Living Humans."
To understand how variation in nasal architecture accommodates the need for effective conditioning of respired air, it is necessary to assess the morphological interaction between the nasal cavity and other aspects of the nasofacial skeleton. Previous studies indicate that the maxillary sinuses may play a key role in accommodating climatically induced nasal variation such that a decrease in nasal cavity volume is associated with a concomitant increase in maxillary sinus volume. However, due to conflicting results in previous studies, the precise interaction of the nasal cavity and maxillary sinuses, in humans, is unclear. This is likely due to the prior emphasis on nasal cavity size, whereas arguably, nasal cavity shape is more important with regard to the interaction with the maxillary sinuses. Using computed tomography scans of living human subjects (N=40), the goal of this study is to assess the interaction between nasal cavity form and maxillary sinus volume in European- and African-derived individuals with differences in nasal cavity morphology. First, we assessed whether there is an inverse relationship between nasal cavity and maxillary sinus volumes. Next, we examined the relationship between maxillary sinus volume and nasal cavity shape using multivariate regression. Our results show that there is a positive relationship between nasal cavity and maxillary sinus volume, indicating that the maxillary sinuses do not accommodate variation in nasal cavity size. However, maxillary sinus volume is significantly correlated with variation in relative internal nasal breadth. Thus, the maxillary sinuses appear to be important for accommodating nasal cavity shape rather than size. Anat Rec, 2013. © 2013 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
Paranasal Sinuses
Air-filled spaces located within the bones around the NASAL CAVITY. They are extensions of the nasal cavity and lined by the ciliated NASAL MUCOSA. Each sinus is named for the cranial bone in which it is located, such as the ETHMOID SINUS; the FRONTAL SINUS; the MAXILLARY SINUS; and the SPHENOID SINUS.
Maxillary Sinus
The air space located in the body of the MAXILLARY BONE near each cheek. Each maxillary sinus communicates with the middle passage (meatus) of the NASAL CAVITY on the same side.
Nasal Lavage Fluid
Fluid obtained by irrigation or washout of the nasal cavity and NASAL MUCOSA. The resulting fluid is used in cytologic and immunologic assays of the nasal mucosa such as with the NASAL PROVOCATION TEST in the diagnosis of nasal hypersensitivity.
The scroll-like bony plates with curved margins on the lateral wall of the NASAL CAVITY. Turbinates, also called nasal concha, increase the surface area of nasal cavity thus providing a mechanism for rapid warming and humidification of air as it passes to the lung.
A part of the upper respiratory tract. It contains the organ of SMELL. The term includes the external nose, the nasal cavity, and the PARANASAL SINUSES.

Can the Sweet Corn
Hank Will -
Grit Magazine
Some folks call it field corn. Others call it ornamental or "Indian" corn. While most folks are focused on sweet corn for homestead growing, heirloom flint, flour and dent corns are much more versatile and arguably more practical in the garden or small field plot. Most are easy to grow, some have incredibly short growing seasons, some are highly drought tolerant, and all offer a multitude of uses, including being ground into flavorful cornmeal and flour. Join GRIT Editor-in-Chief and field corn freak Hank Will as he walks you through the process of raising, harvesting, using and storing this "amaizing" crop on a homestead scale.

A Bio-Intensive Market Garden
Jean-Martin Fortier - Les Jardins de la Grelinette
Les Jardins de la Grelinette is a micro-farm located in Eastern Quebec, just north of the American border. Despite growing on 1.5 acres of land, owners Jean-Martin Fortier and Maude-Hélène Desroches manage to feed more than 200 families through their thriving CSA and seasonal market stands. For more than a decade the market garden has provided their only household income. Their operation generates close to $140,000 in sales with a profit margin of about 45%. The secret of their success resides in the low-tech, high-yield methods of production they have developed by continuously focusing on growing better rather than growing bigger, making their operation more lucrative and viable in the process.
In this conference, Jean-Martin Fortier provides an overview of all aspects of vegetable production at les Jardins de la Grelinette, demonstrating how adopting intensive methods of production can lead to the optimization of a cropping system.

6 Inches of Soil in 6 Months and 600,000 Bugs
John W. Moody - Some Small Farm/Farm to Consumer Legal Defense Fund
"Great soil ... Everyone wants it, but not everyone has it. So, how can you build great soil while also capturing waste streams to reincorporate into the natural earth cycles (and generate free food for your flocks and other animals)? Some Small Farm started four years ago with less than 1% organic matter soil, on land that had been overgrazed year after year into little more than solid clay. The farm now produces bountifully from the application of soil-building principles to the land."

In celebration of Our Lady of Lourdes Feast Day on Tuesday, February 11th, a special Mass of Healing and Anointing of the Sick was held in St. Mary's Chapel on the Hill. Over one hundred people attended the Mass and many more braved the frigid temperatures to visit the Grotto throughout the day to honor our Lady on this special feast.
Father Tom Smith, Mount St. Mary's Seminary, was the celebrant for the Mass. He gave a moving Homily about how God heals us in many ways beyond just our physical nature and reminded us that we need to trust in God's providence. The Anointing service was very moving and left attendees spiritually renewed with a sense of peace and tranquility.
We look forward to having another Mass of Healing and Anointing of the Sick this summer. Stay connected with us online, in the mail, and in person to keep up to date on the latest happenings at the National Shrine Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes.

I`ve learned to put more thought into my cake boards from this thread, and a couple other things to try!
I did a cake board today for a cake I'm baking tomorrow. I got a last minute order today for a shoe and shoe box cake. This is the best board I have done. Black embossed floral paper and I glued diamond mesh around the outside. Next time I am going with fondant...Here is my first shoe....not done yet...but would be happy for feedback
BTW, that is not the board I am using
Looks really good BatterUp! I think the front part needs to extend up a little farther. Other wise it looks awesome better than all the shoe molds I have seen!
Thanks! I bought a cheapie pair of shoes at Ross's and cut it up....that was my mold for the sole. I did the heel freehand but you can't see it. I found some templates online for the back and top. Not knowing what size shoe they came from so that may explain why the top looks a little short. I want to put some trim on it. Maybe I can bring the top up more that way...
I think people who make shoes are so great. It looks hard to do well and so I'm in awe of those who do them!! I love the shape of your shoe, the curve in the sole is lovely. The only thing I would say is that the toe looks slightly short and out of proportion with the overall length of your shoe. Apart from that, it's fabulous, and I can't wait to see the cake all done!!
I am new to cake central and would like the following done please. I'm just really starting out and this is my first 2 tier cake and my first attempt at hand painting.
would love to hear from you guys........
BatterUp, I love your shoe! What did you use to get the texture?
Given the speed with which mods land on threads where there is the slightest hint of a dispute between members, you'd think these spammers would be dealt with BEFORE my e-mail box is full of this rubbish and any attendant viral components AND BEFORE the 'new posts' page is full of this same rubbish.
Life begins at 325° F, and, yes, that IS powdered sugar in my hair.

I saw in in another also
I saw it in a load of threads...
So I went an uploaded my latest cake. The cake that humidity attempted to destroy. I put in a lot of work to make ombre frosting but I kept mucking with it to take off the condensation. It was also perfectly smooth and crumb free before that. I have a feeling I scraped off most of the frosting battling the condensation. Aside from that I mucked up my letter placement really badly, I have no idea what I was thinking. Lesson learned, for last minute cakes make more than 1. I was so annoyed I didn`t have time to make a second one... My topper also softened again after days of heavy rain My design goal was something simple but not boring. 1st time doing the ombre thing.

Shock and caw: Pesky starlings still overwhelm
SALT LAKE CITY The next time the sky darkens with a flock of noisy unwelcome starlings, blame Shakespeare – or, better yet, a few of his strangest fans.
Had the Bard not mentioned the starling in the third scene of "Henry IV," arguably the most hated bird in North America might never have arrived. In the early 1890s, about 100 European starlings were released in New York City's Central Park by a group dedicated to bringing to America every bird ever mentioned by Shakespeare.
Today, it's more like Hitchcock.
Some 200 million shiny black European starlings crowd North America, from the cool climes of Alaska to the balmy reaches of Mexico's Baja peninsula. The enormous flocks endanger air travel, mob cattle operations, chase off native songbirds, roost on city blocks, leaving behind corrosive, foul-smelling droppings and hundreds of millions of dollars of damage each year.
And getting rid of them is near impossible.
Last year U.S. government agents poisoned, shot and trapped 1.7 million starlings, more than any other nuisance species, according to new figures, only to see them roaring back again.
"It's sort of like bailing the ocean with a thimble," said Richard Dolbeer, a retired Wildlife Services researcher in Sandusky, Ohio who spent years trying to figure out ways to keep starlings – which he calls "flying bullets" – and other birds from causing problems at airports. Federal aviation officials say they have caused $4 million in damage since 1990.
After the starlings' introduction, they quickly expanded west, taking advantage of vast tracts of forested land opening up to agriculture and human development, Dolbeer said. By the 1950s, starlings had reached California and nearly all parts in-between. Today, it's one of the most common birds in the U.S.
Their prodigious presence is no mystery. Starlings breed like crazy, eat almost anything, are highly mobile and operate in overwhelming numbers. They're also expert at nesting in protected nooks and making an intimidating statement as they swirl in vast clouds called "murmurations."
"They're great survivors and quite the biological machine," said Greg Butcher, director of bird conservation at the National Audubon Society.
They're also responsible for the most deadly bird strikes in aviation: a 1960 civilian crash in Boston that killed 62 and a 1996 military cargo plane crash that killed 34 in the Netherlands. Since then, there have been close calls, including a Boeing 747 that ran into a flock in Rome last fall. No one was killed but the badly damaged plane had a rough landing.
Those kinds of scenarios are why wildlife biologist Mike Smith has been tweaking a series of traps used at Salt Lake City International Airport, where there have been 19 reported starling strikes since 1990. The traps use dog food to attract a starling or two. Hundreds more soon follow, driven by their innate desire to flock with each other. He once caught 800 in a single day.
The most popular lethal tactic is a poison called DRC-1339, which is often sprinkled on french fries, a favorite starlings snack. Within a day or two, starlings keel over from organ failure.

The pickup lobby isn't labeled in any way, and it's at a motel, so where to sign in is missing. This was confusing. Just put up a sign directing customers into the lobby.
