Great quilt. Love the colors. The strips would be super fast to cut with the AccuQuilt cutter, or the Go Baby cutter.

Thanks for sharing! What a cute and quick and simple baby quilt! I'm thinking that cutting out the piece and putting on sashing would make one of those 2 1/2 strip "race" quilts more interesting!? ding, ding, ding!!

This came at just the right time. I have been searching for a simple, fun pattern to make. We found out that we are having a Christmas time baby, and I have a Merry and Bright Jelly Roll I got a couple of years ago. This is simple enough for my exhausted preggo brain, so thanks for the tutorial:)
- July 17, 2012 at 10:48 AM
- Andrea Turner said...
Really pretty and super fun! I think this would be a great project to do with a jelly roll (just so I don't have to cut the strips).

Hi Allison! I love this and it's in my "quilting queue" that's for sure. I just heard that someone placed the child's name on the strip...wouldn't that also be awesome? So many options on placement on that one, huh? Blessings on your New Year!

I love your designs. But I have one question for this lovely quilt. How did you cut the long strip straight? Did you fold the fabric half the WOF? I had a difficult time doing a straight cut when I folded the fabric before. Thank you.

I'm fairly new to quilting but I just had to try making this one. The excuse I used was some friends of ours were expecting their 2nd child. The color scheme was grey, purple & lime green (in the new nursery.) I used purple minky for the back & purchased lime green satin blanket binding to finish the edges. I couldn't believe it turned out as neat as it did! Keeping all those strips straight was a bit tough but I managed some how.
I highly recommend this pattern to anyone who is new to quilting. (I wish I could show you the finished quilt but don't know how to post a photo here!)

I came across your blog when I saw a pin on Pinterest. This is amazing. I really want to start quilting, but all of it seems so difficult and confusing. This seems like something even I can do!
Thanks for sharing!

Do you have a video tutorial of this ? I am much better with that type of directions that the written ones. Are the strips on both sides with nothing in between? Thank you. Nancy

What a fantastic use of scraps. I love how easy it is, but with a simple flip, looks difficult! A must show to our readers at http://www.southernfabric.com
Thanks for this great tutorial!
- February 4, 2014 at 8:01 PM
- Kathy said...
I just found your tutorial post through Southern Fabric. I like the simplicity but being somewhat new, I have a question: How do you keep track of alternating sewing direction for the strip pairs? Thank you!

Thanks for sharing the quilt and directions!

I was wondering how you'd quilt this? Try to follow the stripe pattern or do something more flowy?
- June 19, 2014 at 10:15 AM
- Pam @Threading My Way said...
Your baby quilt is stunning, Allison!!! Thanks for the inspiration. Here's a link to my strip and flip quilt...
- July 10, 2014 at 3:56 AM
- AuntieBetty said...
I would recommend pressing the seams AWAY from the white strip (... press to the dark side).
- November 16, 2014 at 12:53 AM
- Allison said...
You can press either way Auntie Betty...normally I press towards the dark but with this and all of the seam allowances, the quilt top lays much much flatter if you press towards the strips, and most people probably won't be using white which is why I suggested it. Either way works though!! :)
- November 16, 2014 at 3:52 PM
- lorrwill said...
I love the way the white helps contain the strips. I love scrappy, but it can be a bit much. This is a great balance of crazy and calm.
I bet this would work fabulously with strings (strips of varying widths), too.

I LOVE THIS QUILT .... LOVE, LOVE, LOVE .... every time i see it, it makes my heart smile and my eyes happy .... i need one just like it ....

I love your quilt. I'm going to use a smaller variation of your technique to create a tote bag or perhaps a journal cover. I love it so much I want to be able to look at it all the time!!

Just seeing "Cluck Cluck Sew" lets me know I'm in for a treat. This quilt is no exception. I have some Jelly Rolls that will work just perfectly. Thank you for another great pattern.

Posted: July, 2014
Effective: July, 2014
Thank you for choosing Microsoft! This is an agreement between you and Microsoft Corporation (or based on where you live one of its affiliates) that describes your rights to use the software and services identified in section 1.1. For your convenience, we have phrased some of the terms of this Agreement in a question and answer format. You should review the entire Agreement because all of the terms are important and together create a legal agreement that, once accepted by you, applies to you.
1. Scope of Agreement, acceptance, and changes
1.1. What services are covered by this Agreement? This Agreement applies to Xbox games, content, applications and services, including Xbox Live, SmartGlass, Games for Windows-Live, Xbox Video, Xbox Music, and Windows Phone Store/Marketplace (including any store provided under the brand of a Windows Phone partner that links to this agreement) including services or software that allow you to stream, download, view or use certain digital content such as music, video, games, applications and other content that Microsoft makes available from time to time (the "Services"). The Services may be accessed from the Xbox One console, the Xbox 360 console, a personal computer, mobile device, portable media player, or other devices, each as authorized by Microsoft (each an "Authorized Device"), or online. When using the Services, you must abide by these terms ("this Agreement").
1.2. Are there additional terms for using the Services? Our goal is to create a safer and more secure environment so when using the Services, users must abide by the following, all of which are part of this Agreement:
These Terms of Use
The Xbox Live usage rules (http://www.xbox.com/usagerules)
The Microsoft Anti-Spam Policy (http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/?LinkId=117951)
The Code of Conduct (http://www.xbox.com/legal/codeofconduct)
1.3. Are there any additional terms for using the Services or content accessed through the Services? We will identify the provider of each application available as part of or through the Services. Certain third-party games, applications, content, online services, advertising, or events (for example, sweepstakes and tournaments) that are available in or through the Services ("Third-Party Features") as well as specific Microsoft Services may provide separate or additional agreement terms, privacy policies and other conditions that govern your use of those Third-Party Features (collectively "Additional Terms").
The Standard Application License Terms at the end of this Agreement are the Additional Terms between you and the provider of the application which apply to your use of an application you download through the Windows Phone Store/Marketplace, unless different license terms are provided with the application. An application may also be subject to further Additional Terms, such as terms of service or privacy policies, if the application provides access to additional Third Party Features.
Microsoft is a party to Additional Terms only when Microsoft is the provider of the applicable Services. Microsoft does not license any intellectual property to you as part of any Third-Party Features made available through the Services, and we are not responsible, unless otherwise required by law, for:
the Third-Party Features;
your use of the Third-Party Features;
the content of the Third-Party Features;
customer support for the Third-Party Features; or
any warranties or claims relating to the Third-Party Features.
This Agreement and Privacy Statements referenced in this Agreement do not apply to Third-Party Features, and the Additional Terms governing such features do not modify any terms of this Agreement in any way.
Third party scripts or code, linked to or referenced from these Services, are licensed to you by the third parties that own such code, not by Microsoft.
1.4. How do I accept this Agreement? By using or accessing the Services, or by agreeing to these terms where the option is made available to you in the user interface, you agree to abide by this Agreement without modification by you. If you do not agree, you may not use the Services.
1.5. What age do I have to be to use the Services? By using the Services, you represent that you have reached the age of "majority" where you live and agree to be bound by this Agreement or you are the parent or legal guardian of a minor that has an account associated with yours and you are accepting this Agreement on their behalf. A Microsoft account is necessary to use the Services. You may need to accept other terms of use and provide additional information in order to use your Microsoft account with other Microsoft services.
1.6. Can Microsoft change this Agreement after I have accepted it? Yes. We'll inform you if we intend to change this Agreement. We may change the terms of this Agreement if: (i) it is necessary due to applicable law, including, but not limited to, a change of such law; (ii) it is necessary due to an advice and/or order based on applicable law; (iii) the equivalence ratio between service and consideration is disordered; (iv) it is necessary from a technical point of view; (v) it is necessary to ensure the operation of the Services; or (vi) the terms will be changed to the advantage of the user. We'll inform you of the intended change before it takes effect, either through the user interface, in an email message, or through other reasonable means. Your use of the Services after the date the change becomes effective will be your consent to the changed terms. If you do not agree to the changes, you must stop using the Services and cancel any paid Services by following the instructions in section 6.10. Otherwise, the new terms will apply to you.
1.7. What types of changes can I expect to the Services? We continuously work to improve the Services and may change the Services at any time. Additionally, there are reasons why Microsoft may stop providing portions of the Services, including that it's no longer feasible for us to provide it, the technology advances, customer feedback indicates a change is needed, our agreements with third parties no longer permit us to make their material available, or external issues arise that make it imprudent or impractical to continue. We may release the Services or their features in a beta version, which may not work correctly or in the same way the final version may work. We may, among other things: (i) restrict or limit access to the Services; (ii) retrieve information from the Authorized Device and any connected peripheral device used to log onto the Services as necessary to operate and protect the security of the Services, and to enforce this Agreement; and (iii) upgrade, modify, withdraw, suspend, or discontinue any functionality or feature of the Services, or any hardware or software associated with the Services or with an Authorized Device, from time to time without notice. We may do so by the automatic download of related software directly to your Authorized Device, including software that prevents you from accessing the Services, playing pirated games, or using unauthorized hardware peripheral devices.
1.8. How can associated accounts be used? For some parts of the Services, you may be able to set up additional accounts that are dependent on your account ("associated accounts"). You agree to be bound by this Agreement for any associated accounts (including those for minors) you hold now or create later and that you are responsible for all activity that takes place with your Services account and any associated accounts. You agree that we may take action against your Services account in response to activity on any of your associated accounts, including limiting who may use your Services account or any associated accounts; limiting the number of devices from which you may access the Services; and/or removing your Services account or any associated accounts. If you allow or enable a minor to use an associated account, then:
You represent that you are the parent or legal guardian of such minor;
You acknowledge that some features of the Services, and some content available through the Services, may contain or expose users to material unsuitable for minors. You agree to supervise usage by minors whom you permit or enable to use the Services. The Services are not intended for use by children under 13 without adult supervision;
You acknowledge that we offer settings to manage your purchases and limit access to material that may be unsuitable for minors. For example, we offer "Family Settings" on the Xbox 360 console, the Xbox One console, and for some components of the Services. You may view or revise many of your settings by either going to the console settings application or going to http://www.xbox.com/account. Additional information about our settings is available at http://www.xbox.com/support;
You may receive detailed profile, usage and activity data on minors who have an associated account that will include games played, applications downloaded, videos (TV and movies) that the child watched from Xbox Video, music played, browse and search activity (from within the Internet Explorer app on the console), and enforcement history (including complaints made by or against the associated account user, suspensions and bans from the Services). It may also contain purchase history, friend requests and friends lists (including connections with social networking applications), communications history (including messages and attachments), and the use of applications on the Services (including content viewed).
You are responsible for any material that a user of your Services account accesses or is denied access to (including as a result of your use or non-use of Parental Controls). You acknowledge that use of our settings is not a substitute for your personal supervision of minors that use your Services account.
If you use an associated account, you acknowledge that the holder of the Services account has full control over your associated account. This control includes the right to: (i) end the Services; (ii) close or alter your associated account at any time; (iii) access and modify Parental Controls for your associated account; and (iv) receive notices from us. In some cases, this control also includes the control of purchasing options from your associated account and the ability to request and receive device and Services usage information related to your associated account. We collect profile, usage and activity data related to your associated account and deliver it to the Services account holder. If you are an associated account user, this Agreement applies to your use of the Services, except for the following sections: 1.8 (excluding this paragraph beginning "If you use an associated account …," which applies to associated account users); 6 (Payment); and section 15 (Notices to Parties).
1.9. Are there things I can't do on the Services? You must not use the Services to harm others or the Services. For example, you must not:
- Use the Services to willfully harm, threaten, or harass another person, organization, or Microsoft;
- Damage, disable, overburden, or impair the Services (or any network or Authorized Device connected to the Services);
- Assign, resell, or redistribute any part of the Services or access to the Services, including the sale or purchase of an account;
- Share your account password or otherwise authorized a third party to access or use the Services on your behalf unless we provide an approved mechanism;
- Enable unauthorized third party applications to access the Services;
- Use the Services or any content on the Services for commercial purposes;
- Use or attempt to use any unauthorized means to modify, reroute, or gain access to the Services;
- Use any automated process or service (such as a bot, a spider, periodic caching of information stored by Microsoft, or metasearching) to access or use the Services, or to copy or scrape data from the Services;
- Obtain (or try to obtain) any data from the Services or related hardware, except the data that we intend to make available to you;
- Fraudulently increase the play count or otherwise manipulate the Services in any way, including using a script and/or otherwise automated process;
- Use the Services or related hardware to design, develop, or update unauthorized software;
- Use unauthorized software or hardware to access the Services, nor can you modify an Authorized Device in any unauthorized way (e.g., through unauthorized repairs, unauthorized upgrades, or unauthorized downloads). You agree that we have the right to send data, applications or other content to any software or hardware that you are using to access the Services for the purpose of detecting an unauthorized modification and/or disabling the modified device; or
- Attempt to disassemble, decompile, create derivative works of, reverse engineer, modify, further sublicense, distribute, or use for other purposes the Services, any game, application, or other content available or accessible through the Services, or any hardware associated with the Services or with an Authorized Device. If you do, we may cancel your account and your ability to access the Services, and pursue other legal remedies. We may take any legal action we deem appropriate against users who violate our systems or network security, this Agreement or any additional terms incorporated or referenced in it. Such users may also incur criminal or civil liability.
2. Content
2.1. Who owns the content that I put on the Services? We do not claim ownership of the content you provide on the Services. Your content remains your content. We do not control, verify, or endorse the content that you and others make available on the Services.
2.2. Who can access my content? You control who may access your content. If you share content in public areas of the Services or in shared areas available to others you have chosen, then Microsoft and anyone you have shared content with may use that content. When you give others access to your content on the Services, you grant them free, nonexclusive permission to use, reproduce, distribute, display, transmit, and communicate to the public the content solely in connection with the Services. If the submission is a photograph or other digital image, you also expressly waive any and all rights of privacy and publicity with respect to the image. If you do not want others to have those rights, do not use the Services to share your content.

6.1. Charges. If there is a charge associated with a portion of the Services, you agree to pay that charge. The price stated for the Service excludes all applicable taxes and currency exchange settlements, unless stated otherwise. You are solely responsible for paying such taxes or other charges.

You can access and change your billing account information and payment method on the Billing and Account Management website (https://commerce.microsoft.com). Additionally, you agree to permit Microsoft to use any updated account information regarding your payment method provided by your issuing bank or the applicable payment network. If you tell us to stop using your payment method and don't provide us with another payment method after our notice to you to do so within an appropriate timeframe, we may suspend or cancel your paid Service for good cause. You agree to keep your billing account and contact information current at all times. Changes made to your billing account won't affect charges we submit to your billing account before we could reasonably act on your changes to your billing account.
6.3. Billing. By providing Microsoft with a payment method, you (i) represent that you are authorized to use the payment method that you provided and that any payment information you provide is true and accurate; (ii) authorize Microsoft to charge you for the Services using your payment method; and (iii) authorize Microsoft to charge you for any paid feature of the Services that you choose to sign up for or use while this Agreement is in force. We may bill you (a) in advance; (b) at the time of purchase; (c) shortly after purchase; or (d) on a recurring basis for subscription Services. Also, we may charge you up to the amount you've approved, and we'll notify you in advance of any change in the amount to be charged for recurring subscription Services.

We may bill you at the same time for more than one of your prior billing periods for amounts that haven't previously been processed.
6.4. Automatic renewal. Provided that automatic renewals are allowed in your country, province, or state, we will inform you by email before automatically renewing your Services. Once we have informed you that the Services will be automatically renewed, we may automatically renew your Services and charge you the then current price for the renewal term. We will also remind you that we will bill your chosen payment method for the Services renewal, whether it was on file on the renewal date or provided later. We will also provide you with instructions on how you may cancel the Services. You must cancel the Services before the renewal date to avoid being billed for the renewal.
6.5. Online statement and errors. We will provide you with an online billing statement on the Billing and Account Management website (https://commerce.microsoft.com), where you can view and print your statement. This is the only billing statement that we provide. It's your responsibility to print or save a copy of each online statement and retain such copy for your records. If we make an error on your bill, we'll correct it promptly after you tell us and we investigate the charge. You must tell us within 120 days after an obvious error first appears on your bill. If you don't tell us within that time, you release us from all liability and claims of loss resulting from such error caused by slight negligence; further in that case we won't be required to correct the error or provide a refund. If Microsoft has identified a billing error, we will correct that error within 90 days.
6.6. Cooling off period. When you request a Service from us, you agree that we may begin to provide the Services immediately. You won't be entitled to a cancellation or "cooling off" period, except if the law requires a cooling off period. You may cancel paid Services as provided in section 6.10.
6.7. Trial period offers. If you are taking part in any trial period offer, you must cancel the Services by the end of the trial period to avoid incurring new charges, unless we notify you otherwise. If you do not cancel your Services at the end of the trial period, we may charge you for the Services.
6.8. Price changes. If there is a specific time length and price for your Service offer, that price will remain in force until that offer period ends. You will need to agree to any new offer and price if you want to continue the Services. If your Services are on a period basis (for example, monthly), with no specific time length, and isn't a trial offer, we may change the price of the Services if we inform you at least 30 days before the change will become effective. You will have the opportunity to cancel the Services before the price changes. When we notify you of the price change, we'll also peculiarly inform you that the new price will become effective if you don't cancel the Services. After the term ends, and provided that you didn't cancel the Services further to our information, we'll charge you for your use of the Services at the new price. If you don't agree to the price change, you must cancel and stop using the Services before the price change takes effect. If you cancel, your Services end at the end of your current Services period or, if we bill your account on a periodic basis, at the end of the period in which you cancelled.
6.9. Refund policies. Unless otherwise provided by law or by a particular Service offer, all purchases are final and non-refundable.
6.10. Canceling the Services. You may cancel the Services at any time, with or without cause.

If you cancel, your Services end at the end of your current Service period or, if we bill your account on a periodic basis, at the end of the period in which you canceled.
6.11. Late payments. In case of late payments, you must pay for all reasonable costs we incur to collect any past due amounts. These include reasonable attorneys' fees and other legal fees and costs as permitted by law and regulations. We may suspend or cancel your Services if you fail to pay in full on time after we send you a reminder – with the threat of suspension and/or cancellation of the Services – to make your payment within an appropriate time. You can avoid suspension or cancellation if you make the required payment within the appropriate time set forth in the reminder. A different procedure will apply if the amount missing is marginal. Amounts missing below 2 per cent of the total invoice value will always be deemed marginal. Suspension or cancellation of the Services for non-payment could result in the loss of access to the Services.
6.12. Payments to you. If we owe you a payment, then you agree to timely and accurately provide us with any information we need to get that payment to you. You are responsible for any taxes and charges you may incur as a result of this payment to you. You must also comply with any other conditions we place on your right to any payment. If you receive a payment in error, we may reverse or require return of the payment. You agree to cooperate with us in our efforts to do this. We may also reduce the payment to you without notice to adjust for any previous overpayment.

Check with your carrier to verify whether there are any such fees that may apply to you.

2015 Internships
Thank you to everyone who applied for a 2015 internship position with the Solar Living Institute. We were overwhelemed with the number of qualified applicants looking to gain knowledge in susitable living practices to help protect the future of our environment. We are very excited to welcome our new group starting in April! Find out more about the incoming crew here.
Many an intern alumnus would agree that one of the Solar Living Institute's strongest and most effective programs is the Internship Work-Trade program. We'd like to share with you exactly why.
During the course of their time at SLI, interns will offer their unique talents in a specific focus area within the organization. Beyond the support of SLI in their focus areas, interns will give tours to the public, educational tours to school children, serve as representatives of the SLI at conferences and festivals, maintain the organic garden, and take a plethora of SLI workshops. When there is a moment to spare, Mendocino County has opportunities galore for them to explore rivers, mountains, and the extended community.
Perhaps the greatest experience each intern leaves the Solar Living Institute with is that of communal living. It is no small chore to live in harmony with a handful of strangers, not to mention work and play as well.
If you would like to support our internship program, you may consider making a donation and noting "Internship Program" in the comments area. Our deepest gratitude in advance for your generosity!

uring the 2013 annual Association of Boxing Commissions (ABC) meeting, the group will reexamine rules which disallow kicks and knees to a grounded opponent, specifically in the instance where a fighter intentionally grounds himself.
The group is expected to consider a change on July 31, the final day of the convention, according to notes provided by Nick Lembo of the New Jersey Athletic Control Board. The ABC is made up of members of state and tribal athletic commissions across the United States and Canada, and provides the framework for MMA and boxing rules and regulations.
The rule change, which is co-authored by Nevada's Keith Kizer, Ohio's Bernie Profato, and New Jersey's Lembo, would address instances where a fighter appears to be attempting to draw a foul from his opponent.
If the rule passes, it would be put into play and clearly explained to fighters at rules meetings.
It reads as follows:
"Referees should instruct the fighters that they may still be considered a standing fighter even if they have a finger or portion of the hand (or entire hand) on the canvas. In the discretion of the referee, a fighter who has a finger or hand on the canvas may still be legally struck in the head with knees and kicks. The referee may decide that the downed fighter is placing his or her finger or hand down without doing so for an offensive or countering maneuver in an attempt to advance or improve their position. The referee may decide that the downed fighter is instead simply trying to draw a foul. If the referee decides that the fighter is "touching down" simply to benefit from a foul, the referee may consider that fighter a standing fighter and decide that no foul has occurred."
In addition to that, the referee would have the discretion to penalize the offending fighter for timidity through either a warning or point deduction.

|The most helpful favorable review
|The most helpful critical review
3 of 3 people found the following review helpful:
By A Reasonable Person from USA on 2012-12-18 02:43:29Things I liked:The Beeman P17 is an excellent value for someone interested in a 4.5 mm (.177 cal) target air pistol. Before you buy, think about what it is that you intend to use an airgun for. If you wish to shoot 10 meter air pistol targets and stay in the black at very low cost, this pistol is definitely worth three times what it is sold for. If you want rapidly to make many tiny dents in a barn door from 5 meters or otherwise blast away promiscuously, then skip the P17 and buy the CO2 BB gun which will do that job for you. If you want to hunt, skip pistols and go to a pellet rifle with enough power and accuracy to allow you reliably to achieve first round kills; then make yourself some rat, rabbit or pigeon stew, or at least supplement your cat's diet with your take. Is this an Olympic 10 meter target pistol? No, but it is surprisingly accurate for 10% of the cost of a basic match target pistol such as the Baikal 46. It has good balance, points very naturally and has a splendidly light trigger and servicable open sights. The P17 is a Beeman-licensed Chinese manufactured copy of the Beeman P3/Weihrauch HW40 manufactured in Germany. Except for the post and vee sights (very satisfactory for target shooting, the rear being adjustable for both elevation and windage,) it follows the P3/HW40 design very faithfully for less than 20% of the cost. I have found that Beeman model 1235 7.7 grain coated wadcutters work very well for target shooting in my P17, and are very economical.
Things I would have changed:Loading seems awkward at first, but will soon become easier, especially if you start with pointed pellets, then switch to wads when you are used to the loading. Beeman Model 1239 8.5 grain coated pointed pellets will serve that purpose. With these products, you can find out whether you enjoy the sport without having to spend serious money on it. While the design is very good, the level of quality assurance in assembly seems, from the sample of user reviews I have read elsewhere, sometimes to fall below that standard. Most are assembled well, but some are less well assembled. While the manufacturer should improve quality control, the P17 is warranted for a year, and is not difficult to work on when the warranty has expired. There is plenty of help for diagnosing and fixing problems on the Web. After about 2,000 rounds, I started to have trouble with pressure loss. Since the pistol was then still under warranty, I spent $12 on sending it to Beeman for repairs. After a month, it came back in good order. Now that it is out of warranty, I work on it myself. A Google search for P17 overhaul led me to a number of useful sources of information, including Derrick's overhaul part 1 and finale, which are step by step guides with very good color photo illustrations (Thank you, Derrick.)
What others should know:Cocking this device is too difficult for a child, but within the abilities of most mid-late teens and adults. Anyway, it is not a toy and is not suitable for children. The safe handling considerations for firearms apply to pellet guns. The top of the receiver incorporates dove tail grooves between the front and rear iron sights for mounting accessory sights. Some offers of P17s bundle them with an open style red dot sight. If you are, or think that you may be, interested in target shooting, then the P17 is worth your consideration. If you do not enter formal competition, it may be all that you need. In any event, it is a fine pistol for developing pistol marksmanship and maintaining proficiency economically and at home, rather than driving to a firearms range and firing ball ammunition frequently. I know of no other target as good for so llittle money.

By scott from USA on 2014-09-20 14:54:04Things I liked:Accuracy was great. Trigger was fantastic for a $40 pellet pistol.
Things I would have changed:Some of the components are the cheapest quality imaginable. I fired 4 shots fired before the compression chamber started leaking. It would lose gas on the compression stroke. At first I thought it was a seal, which would be real easy to replace, but I disassembled the gun and tested the chamber under water to find the seam at the rear of the chamber had failed. It is a pressed joint that has no business as part of a compression chamber. Unbelievable that it is built like this.
What others should know:Waste of $40. Should have bought something else.

Microbicides Against HIV
January 2013
Table of Contents
What Are Microbicides?
Microbicides are products being developed to reduce the spread of HIV and other sexually-transmitted diseases (STDs). Microbicides could come in many forms, including gels, creams, suppositories, films, lubricants, sponges, or vaginal rings. They could be used in the vagina or rectum.
How Would Microbicides Work?
Microbicides could work in different ways:
Are Microbicides Currently Available?
No. Scientists are testing many products to see whether they help protect against infection with HIV and/or other STDs. Some of these products have proven safe enough in lab studies that they are now being tested in people. However, no safe and effective microbicide is currently available to the public.
What Is Happening in Microbicide Research?
Microbicides have been in development for the past 15 years. A number of studies conducted on the early products have failed to find an effective microbicide.
However, there is hope that a new group of microbicides that contain HIV drugs will be more effective. Unlike earlier products, these newer microbicides do not have to be applied at the time of sex. They may be used daily as a gel or possibly as a vaginal ring, that may only need to be inserted once a month.
Promising results were reported in July 2010 from a large study called CAPRISA 004. This study of 889 HIV-negative women in South Africa showed that when women used a one percent gel version of the HIV drug Viread (tenofovir) inside the vagina, two out of every five HIV infections were prevented. These study results provide early proof that HIV drug-based microbicides, in particular tenofovir gel, can help protect women against HIV.
The CAPRISA 004 study also showed that women who used the tenofovir one percent gel had half as many infections caused by herpes simplex virus (HSV-2), or genital herpes. This is important because people infected with HSV-2 are more likely to get infected with HIV as well as to spread it to others.
Unfortunately, a similar study of tenofovir one percent vaginal gel among over 5000 HIV-negative women in Uganda, South Africa, and Zimbabwe was not successful. This study, called the VOICE study (MTN 003), was stopped in the fall of 2011 because it did not work. However, the tenofovir gel appeared to be safe, without major side effects.
The VOICE study was also looking at the effectiveness of taking two different HIV drugs in pill form – Viread (tenofovir) and Truvada (tenofovir/emtricitabine). The tenofovir pill was also stopped because it did not work; however, the part of the study using the Truvada pill is continuing, to see if it works.
There is another study being done now to measure the effectiveness of one percent tenofovir vaginal gel in 1700 HIV-negative women in South Africa. This is called the FACTS 001 study; its results are expected in the spring of 2014. Researchers hope that the FACTS 001 study will help us understand why the CAPRISSA study showed the gel worked and the VOICE study did not.
There is also hope that a vaginal ring containing an HIV drug can prevent the spread of HIV. The ring is flexible and designed to be placed deep inside the vagina against the cervix, where it stays for one month. The benefit of using a vaginal ring compared to a vaginal gel is that women would not have to insert the microbicide ring as often as the gel.
Two studies, the ASPIRE study (MTN 020) and the Ring Study (IPM 027), are looking at a vaginal ring containing an HIV drug called dapivirine (a non-nucleoside reverse transcriptase inhibitor) to prevent the spread of HIV. The ASPIRE study is looking at the ring's effects in over 3000 women from Malawi, South Africa, Uganda, Zambia, and Zimbabwe. The Ring Study is looking at the effect of the ring in 1650 women from Rwanda and South Africa. Results from both studies are expected in 2015.
Other related ongoing studies include: (1) MTN 008, which is looking at the safety of tenofovir one percent vaginal gel in pregnant and breastfeeding women the US, and (2) safety studies of rectal tenofovir one percent gel.

text: Posted 1 May 2013 [size=6]Sid Meier to release first iOS game with Sid Meier's Ace Patrol[/size]by John Callaham If you are a PC gamer, chances are you have played a game that was designed or at least supervised by Sid Meier. He is best known for launching the Civilization series but has developed a ton of other games in his long history. He co-founded Firaxis Games which has continued to develop Civilization titles but without Meier's direct design involvement. Today, 2K Games announced that Meier has created his first game for iOS devices. The Wall Street Journal reports that the game, the strategy title Sid Meier's Ace Patrol, will be released for free on May 9th, although it will support in-game purchases for new missions and items. Set in WWI, the game has players commanding air squadrons over the skies of Europe. Meier designed and even programmed his new game and says that making games for mobile devices can take half the time compared to a PC game. He adds, "It's a shorter development cycle but the amount of cool things we can do is very similar to what we can do on a PC." It will be interesting to see just how many more well known game developers decide to create new games specifically for mobile platforms. There's no word if Sid Meier's Ace Patrol will be released for other platforms such as Android or Windows Phone. Source: Wall Street Journal Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
