I first tried some last week. Love to make these now. And funny…my problem was stretching while stitching. Practice makes perfect. Super cute and fun to make!
I'm just amazed at what cool socks you have!
A great tutorial – thanks! I paid $14 for my son's ones a while back… now I can make a bunch and give them away as baby gifts for a fraction of the cost!
They look so simple. My little one loves to run around in her diaper so I think I need to make some now that it is getting cold.
I can never find any cool socks at walmart
Looked in the girls dept, womens dept..
Will have to look again tomorrow ..want to make some !
This might be a dumb question but if your sock has a directional print then when you put the cuff on how do you keep the print from being upside down?
three pairs of socks currently in the sewing queue awaiting their turn! Thanks!
Thank you. This makes it SO simple! I can't wait to make some for my little girl.
Felicia, that's a great question and one I had to learn the hard way!
You're right, a print that can only go in one direction will not work in the tutorial I gave but there is something you can do…
Take a look at the skull socks that are all the way on the right of the photo. Notice that the top of those are actually the cuff that's already on the socks. In the tutorial that would've been the bottom of the legwarmers but to keep the print right side up I made that the top and then made the bottom cuff much smaller than what I did in the tutorial. Make sense? It's so hard to type this without a visual, I hope it makes sense.
The only bad thing is you can't pull them up above the knee unless your little had pencil legs. They definitley wouldn't make it over Sam's chunkster thighs! But they are good for below the knee legwarmers.
Hope that helps!
That totally makes sense, I was just trying to figure out if I was seeing it wrong. My littles still has bird legs but I keep hoping she will get some meat on her thighs.
I absolutely love your blog. I really appreciate how honest you are about dealing with the ups and downs of being a mom. I just had my second 4 months ago and it's been a rough road. I feel like there are all these super perfect moms out there writing…or at least that's what they want you to believe And you are really someone I can identify with.
I was listening to your husband for the last year or 2 until until I became a stay at homer and had no idea this was your blog until I was mid way thru reading the whole thing! Baby Sam is gorgeous!
Crazy question – about how many inches are the baby legs in full? Thanks!!!
Hmm, well they're really whatever length the socks are. I usually use knee highs but she does have a few pairs that are made a of crew length socks too! Those are just better for scrunching down verses the full up to the knee length that kneehighs make. Does that make sense? I feel like I'm babbling nonsense…
I just had a baby and she was born with a club foot. To fix it the doctors use the Ponseti method which requires a lot of casts. I needed something for her legs…. and cant afford to spend 10 dollars a pop on leg warmers. Thank you for this DYI project. You saved my hide!!!! What a blessing this is.
Hi! Just wanted to say that I love your blog & I especially like this project for Easter. I've featured you on my blog here:
I hope you'll stop by & check out my blog. You can get my new featured button on the top left hand side of my blog. I also have a McLinky party called Tot Tuesdays if you'd like to join.
Cheers, Jenn
I finally got around to making these baby legs and they turned out sooo cute. I just wanted to say thanks for the tutorial and I linked you up to my blog http://thetotis.blogspot.com so some other bloggers could use your tutorial. Good luck with your second pregnancy! I can't wait to see what you make for baby #2!
Sooo cute, thanks for this great tutorial. I just finished my first pair of leg warmers and they look great!!! I'll be running to Target tomorrow for some more knee highs.
Thanks again, Aleese
Target has great socks now for about $2. I made some for a birthday present today about 45 min before we left. So easy. I used a zig-zag/straight combo stitch that gave some stretch but still left a nice seam. Love this idea!
I have been wanting to try making leg warmers from socks for such a long time–has I known how truely easy it was I would have done it a long time ago! Thanks for the super easy-to-follow tutorial. Theses will be great to wear under her Halloween costume! Now if only I had read the part about not stretching out the sock as I sew BEFORE I sewed…
⊰♥⊱ ⊰♥⊱ Very smart! I love this. I'm going to do this until my fingers are sore! Thanks for sharing the tut. ⊰♥⊱ ⊰♥⊱
I just made 2 pairs tonight…so cute! However, my husband won't allow my little guy wear them…can't figure that one out! Oh well, friends, neices, cousins will benefit from his loss!
So cute! I have 2 boys, and 1 in 8 months old and just starting to crawl….and we just moved into a house with wood floors. I was thinking of getting some legwarmers for him because his little knees get so red! I would love to see if this would work for him
im super new to sewing im talking pillow case new but my friend is having a baby soon and i love the babylegs my daughter still wears them @3 soo i was wondering can i use my reg thread or do i need stretchy thread?
I love these! just finished my first pair…and they are cute, cute, CUTE!
I did however, have a problem with the fabric rolling and stretching while I was sewing them. Any ideas on how to make them not do that? I'm very new to this whole sewing thing and any ideas are welcomed.
Thanks for the great tutorial!!!
I have a baby coming in November and it is extremely snowy and cold during that month where I'm from. I want to make sure that these would fit a brand new infant. Would I need to get something different than women's socks, or do you think that Women's socks would fit a newborn snug enough?
[...] onto the leotard sleeves & the legwarmers were also made from men's brown socks using this babylegs tutorial. Here are a few pics from the steps to give you the gist…The ears were on a headband so that [...]

I am looking for light and comfortable trail running pack. Here is my list of priorities...NO bouncing, I have used other packs for running and they never can keep the contents from bouncing around which eventually causes all kinds of irritation1 to 2 liters of water, hydration bladder capableprobably about 10 liter capacity would be enoughLIGHT WEIGHTLet me know what you guys have used, I am in need of something which is designed for running and think this is a good place to find out what is the lightest stuff out there.Eric
Eric,Here are some possibilities:Nathan hpl 20Salomon skin lab 5 packUltraspire surge - new. Just reviewed on irunfar.com
If you can find one that doesn't bounce please let me know. I do have a Salomon Raid Revo 15 that I use. It does bounce some but I am able to reduce it to just a small movement by tightening the small waist strap.
Edited by youngster on 12/14/2011 18:19:18 MST.
I'm using a Osprey Talon 5.5, unfortunately discontinued :), but still can be foundit holds a 2 liter bladder very easy (could probably use a 3 liter in a pinch)- has a small zippered pocket for keys, first aid, snacks, camera, other smaller items, then a main pocket that is pretty roomy- insulating layer, windshirt, etc in addition has a stretch front pocket on the outside for additional bits- rain jacket, etcvery little to no bounce- adjustable waist belt, adjustable shoulder straps, adjustable sternum strap
I haven't tried it, but I would think Inov-8's pack would be good since they primarily make trail running shoes. They put the hydration pack inside the hip belt.
your 10 liter capacity requirement is what gets me.most 100 mile ultra runners use only a 5 liter or 8 liter pack at most. of course they have aid stations every 8 miles.why do you need a 10 liter pack?how long are the runs you plan to use it for?
Edited by asandh on 12/15/2011 08:22:02 MST.
I guess 10L is more than I need. 5L to 8L is probably enough. I will likely be using it to carry everything for a 6 to 8 hour runs without aid stations. I have never had a pack this small so I guess I don't know how small I could really go. I have been using a REI Flash 18, which is great little pack but terrible for running. Thanks for the suggestions and keep them coming if there are more.Eric
I have a Nathan HPL 20It is probably the most popular ultra running pack.Nathan HPL 20But it is a pretty tight fit for everything you might need in an "unsupported" 8 hour run unless you have intermediate water spots. I run with 2 hand held water bottles and one extra bottle plus food and clothing in the pack. if you use the bladder for water on a long run that cuts down what else you can fit inside by quite a bit.Nathan also sells a couple slightly larger packs that I have never seen.The Ultraspire packs are pretty expensive, but the Surge is getting a pretty good write up over on irunfar.The Surge is comparable in size to the HPL 20.Surgethe Ultraspire Omega is a larger 8 liter version of the Surge.OmegaI have never seen or used any Ultraspire pack, they are pretty new. but they're getting good reviews and I plan to check them out.All 3 packs mentioned above are specifically designed for long distance running.. . .
Edited by asandh on 12/15/2011 09:26:11 MST.
I knows it's a bit big but I'm a fan of my terra nova laser 20. No bouncing on me, you can do a bladder or 2 bottles, nice size hipbelt pockets, compression on both sides of the vertical zip makes the pack any size you like and if my memory serves me it's just a shade over 11 oz. The fabric is thin so you'll have to be nice to it, but it's held up well for me. No real complaints about it.
I was going to suggest the Flash 18, but see that you don't like it for running. I find it OK for running myself.
Keep in mind that the weight sometimes quoted for the Nathan HPL 020 (6 oz) is a bit misleading. The actual empty weight is about 14oz. The Nathan pack and the Ultimate Direction Wasp have been the two most commonly seen packs on participants in the Western States, Leadville, and other major ultras for several years now. Several ultra running bloggers have pitted these packs against eachother in side-by-side comparisons. The Wasp has almost four times the capacity of the Nathan (7 liters vs. 2 liters), and weighs 50% more (21 oz). Some reviewers seem to prefer the lighter weight of the Nathan, while others liked the greater capacity of the Wasp and found it more comfortable and secure (the fit of the wasp is more adjustable). Both are specialized race vests and have essentially no bounce.
yes the HPL 020 weight was listed incorrectly on the Nathan web site for a couple years. I think that has been corrected.My HPL 20, empty and without bladder, weighed 279g (9.8 oz). since I use handhelds and don't use a bladder, I modified mine a bit down to 241g (8.5 oz).the HPL 20 does not hold a whole lot, but usually just enough.
Edited by asandh on 12/15/2011 10:30:39 MST.
older thread, but thought I'd add the Mountain Hardwear Fluid 6 to the mix, this was recommended to one of our fellow BPL'ersI've been using a couple of different lumbar packs w/ double bottles w/ success, but they are limited to moderate distances- lack of storage for food, insulating layer and the distances you can cover w/o waterI wanted something that could handle longer runs, was light and carried w/ little to no bounce- the Fluid 6 really fit the bill. It weighs in at a very svelte 9.5 oz (that's w/o a bladder which you have to supply- I opted for the lightest 2 liter I could find the Platy Hoser). The main pack is surprisingly roomy- can fit extra clothing, full days worth of food, emergency bits. The front vest portion has several smaller pockets that can handle gels/blocks/electrolytes and other items you might need handy (sunscreen, anti-chafe, etc). The side of the main pack had two elastic pockets that are able to hold your typical 20-ish oz running bottle, but unless your more flexible than me (which most folks are :) ) they couldn't be reached on the fly. They are a nice size to hold a cell phone, camera, etc though. The front of the pack has a full length bungee setup that allows additional items (raingear, etc) to be strapped on.I haven't tried it, but it looks like you might be able to carry two bottles on the front of the vest, there are two smaller double bungees and it looks like the bottom of the bottles would fit into the stretch pocketsthe adjustments are two sternum straps that can be moved to several different locations on the "vest" and two easily to reach straps where the lower portion of the "vest" is attached to the packI've got several 20-ish mile trail runs w/ this pack and can say it carries very nicely- this is my first vest style running pack and now I know why they are so popular.I do wish they had one additional mesh pocket in the main pack to store items like tp, first aid, headlamp, etc- right now I'm just using a very small cuben bag to store the smaller itemson the job :)
Thank you for the review on the Fluid 6. I am also pondering the fluid race vest or the yet to be released UD race vest. But it seems the Fluid 6 might be a better/lighter option to my UD Wasp.I wonder if someone like Chris Zimmer could knock out a vest pack for a fraction of the weight? I imagine it will be more difficult than creating a regular UL backpack since the fit and bounce factor of a vest are major factors.
Will the Fluid 6 fit a 3 liter bladder?
I may be a bit biased, but I HIGHLY HIGHLY recommend the Ultimate Direction SJ vest coming out in Mid-Nov. The weight is around 7.5 oz due to some phenomenal hex mesh, cuben fiber, and awesome lycra mesh. Storage capacity is right around 8L, and the perfect size for decent-length jaunts in the mountains. I used this pack exclusively when I ran Hardrock 100 this year, and likely would not have ever wanted anything different. It was designed to use 2 bottles up front, but you can certainly throw a bladder in the back as well. Having bottles up front makes for a much more pleasant carry though, and the weight winds up being well-balanced and accessible.
this new Ultimate Direction vest sounds like what I'm looking for.any photots anywhere ?can't find much info.where do the 2 bottles sit up front ? on shoulder straps or waist belt ?
Art:There's not tooo much information officially released at the moment, but more information on the official UD site should be uploaded next weed. However, there is a video showing it a bit here: http://youtu.be/u0ZNP70S-YcYou will see that the bottles are secured on the shoulder straps Adventure-racing style. There is definitely no hipbelt since they severely limit your range of motion on technical trail.
Art,If you look on the UD website at the bottom of the page there is a link to their blog which has more info.Dave
Eric- that lookss very interesting :) the Fluid 6 easily fits a 2 liter, I'll have to try a 3.0 liter to see, my guess is yes, but I'll verify that

Ferrous Sulfate (Feosol®, Slow FE®)
Iron, or ferrous sulfate (Feosol®, Slow FE®), is a mineral that your body needs to produce red blood cells. When the body does not get enough iron, it cannot produce enough red blood cells to keep itself healthy. This is called iron-deficiency anemia. Lack of iron can cause tiredness, shortness of breath, and decreased physical performance. It also can increase the chance of an intestine transplant patient getting infections.
Ferrous sulfate is used to treat or prevent low levels of iron in the blood; it treats or prevents iron-deficiency anemia.
Foods rich in iron include lean red meat, beans, nuts, asparagus, oatmeal, and dried peaches. Vitamin C can increase the absorption of iron, which can be found in citrus fruits and fresh vegetables. Ferrous sulfate might be prescribed if your child is not able to maintain a healthy level of iron through diet alone after an intestinal transplant.
Types Available
Ferrous sulfate is taken by mouth. It is available in liquid form, as caplets, and as 300- and 324-mg tablets.
How to Take
Ferrous sulfate should be taken on an empty stomach and with water or fruit juice. However, if the medication upsets your child's stomach, he or she can take ferrous sulfate with food.
Missed Doses
If your child misses a dose of ferrous sulfate, take it as soon as you or your child remembers. If you remember within two hours of your next scheduled dose, skip the missed dose and resume your child's usual dosing schedule. Do not double the dose to catch up.
Side Effects
Some people do experience stomach discomfort that ranges from heartburn to nausea and vomiting, but taking ferrous sulfate with food instead may help avoid or lessen it. Constipation or stools that are black or green also occur. (The unusual coloring is because of absorbed iron, and is not harmful.)
In rare cases, people taking ferrous sulfate experience:
- diarrhea
- stomach pain
- chest pain
- dark urine
If your child has trouble with any of these side effects, inform your doctor or transplant coordinator.
Drug Interactions
Tell your transplant coordinator about all the medication your child uses, whether over-the-counter or prescription, so you can be warned of undesirable interactions and prevent them.
Take ferrous sulfate as prescribed. Eggs, milk, dairy products, coffee, tea, spinach, fiber, and antacids can decrease iron absorption. Your child should take iron tablets one to two hours after eating these foods or taking other medication.
Most pharmacies stock ferrous sulfate.
Drug information changes periodically. For the most updated information on drugs, visit www.drugs.com.

Byrd Brain
January 17, 1999
These days you can barely walk down the street in Washington without being accosted by some Wise Man hawking scandal advice. Former Senate Majority Leader Bob Dole is selling his complicated censure scheme. Former Presidents Jimmy Carter and Gerald Ford are marketing their own censure proposal. Sundry other formers—Lloyd Cutler, Richard Ben-Veniste, Robert Drinan—have weighed in authoritatively as well. Now that Bimbroglio has graduated to the Senate, it's not surprising that these old lions (or perhaps "old badgers") have been joined by Democratic Senator Robert C.

This afternoon, the New York Knicks defeated the Philadelphia 76ers by 16, 100-84, to better their record to 2-0 on the young season. The Knicks have not started a season 2-0, since 1999-2000, so it's safe to say they're off to a very solid start.
[tabs tab1="First Quarter Recap" tab2="Second Quarter Recap" tab3="Third Quarter Recap" tab4="Fourth Quarter Recap"]
Picking up right where they left off, the Knicks continued to display marvelous ball movement. The ball swung around the arc three, four, even five times sometimes, before settling into the hands of a three-point shooter. While the Knicks still took a lot of threes – 9 to be exact – nearly every one of them was an open, good look. In the first quarter, the Knicks shot 12/24 from the field, including 5/9 from three. Five of the Knicks' 12 buckets were assisted in the first period. After one, the Knicks led by 6, 31-25.
After a good defensive first quarter, the Knicks stepped it up another notch in the second quarter. While the Sixers shot the exact same 42% they did in the first quarter, the Knicks forced seven turnovers, compared to just one in the first period. The Sixers scored just 19 points in the quarter. It might have been worse if not for the hot shooting of Jrue Holliday, who scored seven in the quarter on 3-for-4 shooting. JR Smith was the hot man for the Knicks, scoring seven in the quarter on 3-for-5 shooting, chipping in two steals as well, helping the Knicks extend their six point first quarter lead to 13 at halftime, 57-44.
Both teams had their shooting strokes going in the third quarter. They each shot 50% from the floor with Holliday continuing his hot play for the Sixers, scoring eight in the quarter on 3-fof-5 shooting (2-of-3 from beyond the arc). However, the beautiful ball movement the Knicks displayed in the first half got sloppy in the third quarter, with the team committing seven turnovers. This helped the Sixers hold the Knicks to 18 third quarter points and cutting their 13-point halftime deficit to nine going into the final quarter. The Knicks were led by JR Smith in the quarter. Good JR had four points and four rebounds in the quarter but bad JR also committed to turnovers.
[tab] Going into the fourth, the team had to focus on locking the game up, as the 76ers cut the lead to just 9. The Knicks did a good job padding their lead by keeping their defensive and offensive intensity levels high. JR continued to make shots, and Melo was a terror in the post. Sheed even contributed a bit, hitting a nice post shot and finding Pablo Prigioni for his first bucket as a Knick. All in all, the Knicks were able to counteract the 76ers attempt to get back into the game, something that was lacking at times last year. [/tab]
[divider] [/divider]
- Melo continues to give a shit on defense, which really transforms his game. He dove into the stands, in attempts of saving a ball after he blocked it. I don't think I've ever seen him express that kind of hustle on the defensive end before… but I love it!
- SHEEEEEEEED! Late in the fourth, after another round of chants from the crowd, Mike Woodson injected Rasheed Wallace into the Knicks' lineup. Sheed proceeded to pull down a rebound and made quick work of Nick Young in the post.
- Raymond Felton jumped out to a quick start again, but slowed down considerably for the remainder of the game. While he has lost a lot of weight, I think his stamina is still low. It'll be interesting to see how he fairs over the next couple weeks.
- Melo in the post is so, so pretty.
- Ball movement continues to be a thing of beauty, and Jason Kidd is facilitating it. #VeteranLeadership
- Without Stoudemire and Shumpert, we knew the Knicks would need to find scoring elsewhere, well, today, Smith stepped up with 20 off the bench.
- The Knicks have only trailed once this season: 0-2 at the start of today's game.

Is McCoy sympathy candidate?
The Heisman Trophy is many things. The most prestigious award in college football. The most familiar trophy in sports. The symbol of the most exclusive fraternity in athletics.
This year, it might be something else. A consolation prize. The college football world is still buzzing about Oklahoma making the Big 12 Championship game instead of Texas. When the Sooners finished ahead of the Longhorns in the BCS standings and claimed the South Division title, it set off a firestorm. Cries of injustice have been heard from one coast to the other and everywhere in between. The headlines screamed the scorn. From Fort Lauderdale: 'Horns Hooked? From New York: A Texas-Sized Fiasco. From St. Louis: Texas is cheated by flawed system. Plenty of folks believe the Longhorns drew the short straw, and when you perceive an injustice, it's human nature to try to make amends. The Heisman might be the college football world's way of doing that. Oklahoma quarterback Sam Bradford is the front-runner in the Heisman straw polls, but Colt McCoy isn't far behind. Might voters look now at the Texas quarterback with a more sympathetic eye? Might that propel him to victory next weekend in New York? Chris Huston believes it could happen. His Web site, HeismanPundit.com, explores all things related to the little bronze statue. Before sharing his expertise with the masses on the Internet, he worked as an assistant sports information director at Southern Cal, where he oversaw the Heisman campaigns of eventual winners Carson Palmer and Matt Leinart. "It is possible that McCoy could get some votes either as sympathy or as a protest against the BCS process," Huston said. "I'm not sure it hurts Bradford so much as it helps McCoy a little." But even the slightest advantage could be decisive in a race this close. Bradford is leading every major straw poll, but McCoy is right behind. He is only a few points behind Bradford in a couple polls, and in the ESPN.com poll, he has just as many first-place votes as Bradford. If McCoy gets a few sympathy votes, it could make the difference in the final outcome. The Big 12's BCS mess might not be the only factor in the Heisman voting either.

Fearrington House Restaurant, In Our Gardens
September 23, 2015 1:19 PM | By The Chefs | No Comments
After passing by old hoop houses that were covered in vines and weeds, I had an idea to continue Fearrington's farm to fork mission – a vegetable garden.
Our gardening team helped to clear out the hoop houses and then myself and my Executive Sous Chef Tom Whitaker and Sous Chef Thomas Card built the raised beds.
More and more people are interested in where their food comes from, how it's grown and how it gets from the ground to their plate. As a chef, we love the interest because it highlights the work that goes into each individual ingredient and then how much overall effort goes into the final product.
Stay tuned to see what we're planting in our garden.

Doctor Who Roundup: Steven Moffat Talks 50th And Peter Capaldi's Past Appearances Explained
We're still a little over a month away from the Doctor Who 50th Anniversary special, The Day of the Doctor, but anticipation seems to be growing daily. Luckily a few bits and pieces of news and teasers have helped curb our appetite for now. The BBC has announced that a few teasers for the larger trailer will air tonight before and after the premiere of Atlantis. We'll have those for you as soon as they hit, but some other things have also been going on in the world of Who. Steven Moffat has been out and about talking about the 50th and having two Doctors interact. It's some surprisingly open comments from Moffat who usually trolls us Whovians. Moffat has also stated Peter Capaldi's past Doctor Who and Torchwood appearances will be explained thanks to a little help from Russel T. Davies.
Tennant News had the rundown of a recent interview with Steven Moffat about The Day of the Doctor. The showrunner once again said we don't really know anything about the special because the only things confirmed are things filmed outside, like the Zygons. He said even the things outside don't mean much since he would "lie to you prodicgiously and regularly right now if I felt it would help kept a secret." Moffat also touched on having Matt Smith and David Tennant together playing the same person. He explains it's something strange and weird that only Doctor Who can do:
One of the comments that David and Matt made to each other after the read-through was 'It's really weird to hear someone else doing this, because I can keep thinking "Oh, is that how you're meant to do that bit?" You have to say, 'No, no, could you please both do it different ways?' While the flourishes change between the Doctors, the essential Doctor is just the Doctor."
It's one of those things that Doctor Who can do. You actually can have another Doctor revisit. I tried to imagine what it would be like to interact with your younger or older self, and I concluded that I'd absolutely hate it. My younger self would be a prat and my older self would just be even uglier. Imagine the lack of hope you'd have the moment the 30 year old me came into the room and saw the 51 year old me and went 'Really? Is this as good as it's ever going to get?' I didn't write the show like that. That would've been depressing.
Most interesting of all though, Moffat explained how the 50th is less about looking back than looking ahead and assuring there's a 100th Anniversary. Seems we'll have a huge turning point for the series this November. It's a long quote, but it bears being seen in full:
You're going to get every kind of retrospective in the world when it comes to the 50th and you're not going to be short. To make this show just a walk-down, just a tribute to the past, a backward glance, would be like one of those end of year shows: 'That was the year that was! Look back and feel slightly old and sad.' Don't do that! Of course it's a celebration of the legend of Doctor Who, but more importantly it's ensuring there's going to be a 100th anniversary.
It's a hugely important story to the Doctor. That was my mission statement. Very, very rarely in Doctor Who does a story matter to him very much at all. Obviously he runs around, defeats mutants, meets a space badger, saves a civilisation, causes epiphanies to happen to everyone he meets, rushes back to the TARDIS and forgets everything about it. If you asked him he might have a vague memory of the badger, and that's it.
My intent was to move it forward, to have a show that's equally about the next fifty years of Doctor Who. Attaching the word fifty to anything…I almost tried to rip the logo off saying 'Why is that good?! That show you're watching is really old!' Why is that a good thing to say? It's about proving we've got many, many more stories to tell, and in a way, being able to say the story really starts here. People ask me how am I going to please the regular audience and I say I'm actually on a recruitment drive to get the people who've never watched it before to watch Doctor Who. That's what matters. There are some people out there who've never watched it before, God help them. You want them to think, 'Oh I've been missing out, I;m going to join in now.'
If you're going to celebrate Doctor Who, you're celebrating the Doctor – well, why not tell his story? What's it like for him? What's it like being him, what defines him, what defines what he is? How do you make that might moment in his life? What would be the Doctor's most important day, what would be the show that would change him as a person for ever, alter the course of his life?
That's what's big enough to do for the 50th, rather than just a parade of the greatest hits. Never mind that space badge one; this is the adventure that he really remembers, and thinks, 'That was the day everything changed.
Finally, new Doctor Peter Capaldi's previous Doctor Who and Torchwood appearances will be explained in his first season. Steven Moffat told Nerd³ (via Doctor Who TV) that former showrunner Russel T. Davies actually had a hand in the idea to show why The Doctor looks exactly like a man he ran in to in Pompeii:
We are aware that Peter Capaldi's played a big old part in Doctor Who and Torchwood before and we are not going to ignore the fact. I remember Russell [T Davies] told me that he had a big old plan as to why there were two Peter Capaldi's in the Who universe: one in Pompeii and one in Torchwood. When I cast Peter and Russell got in touch to say how pleased he was, I said, 'Okay, what was your theory and does it still work?" and he said, 'Yes it does. Here it is… We'll play that one out over time. It's actually quite neat.
Moffat points out that The Doctor isn't predestined to wear a particular face. In The War Games we see that the Time Lords gave the Second Doctor a choice. Moffat says that we'll get answers to the question of 'where did that face come from?' With teasers for The Day of the Doctor coming later tonight, it looks like the promotion for the 50th is officially kicking off. There's a lot going on in the world of Who but there will soon be a lot more things popping up online. What do you think about Moffat's 50th comments? Do you like the fact we'll be looking more at what's to come instead of what has already been?

Chapter History
The Gulf Wind Chapter is the Northwest Florida affiliate of the National Railway Historical Society, an organization dedicated to the preservation and promotion of our country's railroad history and heritage. The chapter was formed in 1973 by a small group of Tallahassee residents who shared an interest in railroad history and railroading. The chapter is named for the Seaboard Air Line Railroad's Gulf Wind passenger train that provided service for many years between Jacksonville and New Orleans.
Gulf Wind members stay busy with a wide range of events and activities. The group operates several restored motorcars or "speeders" and participates in motorcar events. The organization is also responsible for the ongoing renovation of the historic depot in nearby Lloyd, FL -- which is Florida's oldest remaining railroad station.

When Barack Obama took office one year ago, he pledged to devote at least $50 billion to combat homelessness by creating jobs and distributing federal money to affordable housing programs nationwide.
One year into Obama's presidency, Sisters of the Road, Street Roots, Community Alliance of Tenants and hundreds of housing activists from about a dozen other Portland organizations plan to highlight what they say has been the president's broken promise.
Timed to the Jan. 20 anniversary of Obama's inauguration, they're planning to travel in vans for a mega-protest planned in San Francisco at the federal building. Members and organizers of Sisters of the Road are funding the travel both from their own pockets and donations from supporters.
Demonstrators say their patience is wearing thin with what they call Obama's failure to make alleviating homelessness a priority.
"We have held onto Hope for a year and are way past ready for the Change that was promised us," reads one flier recently distributed by the Western Regional Advocacy Project, the San-Francisco-based activist group responsible for organizing the protest.
"Homeless and housing advocacy groups have been acting in a vacuum locally," says Street Roots executive director Israel Bayer. "This gives us an opportunity to act in unison to give a message to the Obama administration that housing is a human right."
Protesters want the federal government to invest more money into building affordable housing units. And they want existing units protected with the enactment of a moratorium on the demolition of any public housing that isn't guaranteed to be replaced.
Last year, Obama proudly announced his decision to award $1.6 billion in grants to the Department of Housing and Urban Development for thousands of local housing and service programs nationwide.
Oregon got $22 million of that money, but local housing advocates weren't impressed. They say most of that money simply replaced funds that had already been cut from a tight state budget. And they believe that $1.6 billion figure nationwide needs to be renewed annually instead of being just a one-time commitment for this year.
Portland housing activists plan to leave Monday morning, Jan. 18, on Martin Luther King Jr. Day, after a send-off party from 5 to 9 pm Saturday night at Sisters of the Road Cafe in Old Town. The group also plans to hold a panel discussion in Ashland on ending homelessness before continuing on to San Francisco.
Asked what he hoped to achieve with a protest 3,000 miles from Washington, D.C., Sisters of the Road community organizer Brendan Phillips is optimistic the group's message will be heard in the White House and on Capitol Hill.
"This is how movements start," Phillips says. "We need to get to the grassroots. We're bringing them [the local homeless] to San Francisco because it's their stories that are going to change people's minds."

Since Maid cafes seem to be dying out in the US I hope we get a panzer café fad going. After all you can't possibly construe panzers as degrading, and who wouldn't want to smell the sweet scent of cordite and motor oil while eating cake? Saori seems to be a fan and Mako can't get cake tankettes fast enough. Sadly what should have been a nice quite dayto turned sour once Maho showed up with her yandere admirer. The water is a bit murky at the moment but it seems that Miho once served under Maho and her last screw up might have broken up Maho's win streak and caused an interregnum in Maho's panzerfahren dynasty. Still with Saunders on the schedule Yukari undertakes a do or die mission to infiltrate the Saunders carrier and get whatever intel she can to give Kampfgruppe Miho a chance to win against superior M-4 Shermans that outnumber them 2 to 1.
Granted security at Saunders wasn't tight no one would mistake it for Stalag 17, and Yukari isn't Sam Fisher. Kei is okay, in my book but I really wanted her to give a rendition of Patton's speech to the 3rd Army. Sadly this show isn't into cursing or eager to bring up Patton's colorful personality. Yukari does get the needed intel, but I don't think Kei really cared anyway. Certainly it wouldn't matter in the opening minutes of the engagement as Saunders upped the ante with their radio intercept balloon. So while there were whispers of cheating, both sides tried to get an advantage. Yukari got Miho some good intel and Saunders read Ooria like a book. Still it was good to see that Miho got the flamboyant StuG III to go back to gray and improve their gunnery and ambush skills. Miho took out one but she still has nine to go, unless she knocks out the Saunders flag tank.
I have to hand it to Miho giving Momo the flag means that Momo and the Panzer 38(t) is playing the hide and hope game. Kei has the numbers and re requisite aggression and hopefully Saunders will make it a knock out drag out fight. The other useless tank, the Type 89 was utilized as a decoy with good effect. The Type 89 was no match for the M4 Sherman and I like how Miho appreciated this fact by emphasizing the StuG III with a kill zone. I wonder what Kei is going to do now that radio assisted women's intuition will no longer come into play. Hopefully Kei is savvy enough to use the range and hitting power of the firefly. The StuG III is still the main threat but once that has been dealt with her Shermans will have a distinct advantage over the remaining Oorai tanks. I hope Kei has enough good sense to try and keep the fire fight in the forest as limiting the line of sight for the StuG III would greatly help their cause. If there is one knock on Kei it would be that she didn't run more fireflies and 76mm armed Shermans. I am not sure if they just don't have the time because they have an embarrassment of riches when it comes to tailgating before matches. At least Saunders' emulation of America went down to the sophistication of US logistics during the war.
Germany may have been light years ahead of the Allies in many areas of modern land warfare, but the Americans could claim superiority in artillery and logistics. In terms of logistics the US had more trucks than most other powers and since most of the population knew how to drive and operate vehicles the US enjoyed a distinct advantage in the number of drivers they could use. German logistics at the time was still mostly horse drawn and there were never enough trucks to go around. Europe in general had fewer drivers because cars just weren't common in the 1930s for the average person, the Soviet Union in particular didn't have the infrastructure to maintain a pool of qualified drivers. The Japanese just ignored logistics for the most part as they never fielded as many trucks and were notorious for their looting habits. In short the Americans had a bigger pool of truck drivers while every other power in the war had to specifically train truck drivers for their smaller motor pools. Even now the US Military has a reasonably robust logistics tail, just looking at how the US Air Force sets up base camp would over awe the average person with their portable showers, and air conditioned spaces.
Yukari stole the show, not only did she infiltrate Saunders but we got a glimpse of her gloriously decorated room. Yukari is a true believer and I admit I am rather envious of her collection of tank rounds. It is unfortunate that she had not friends but panzers for most of her life so far, but things are different now and she has Miho to latch onto. Yukari seems to be very keen on gathering data, she even surreptitiously got Miho's three sizes, though for what purpose we can only imagine, though I can imagine quite a bit. Mako also made a move on Saori though it was one of those blink and you'll miss it moments. Not only are new panzers making their debuts, they also added some armored cars into the mix. Unfortunately they have yet to participate in matches as the league has yet to implement a combined arms approach. Still I have to applaud the jumbo LCD upgrade to Leopold the Krupp K5. Last but not least, thank Patton that Oorai got rid of their gaudy paint schemes.
Unfortunately next week seems to be a recap episode and hopefully they will add some next stuff to break up the déjà vu.

MORRISTOWN - Seniors at Morristown Central School are shipping out to Boston, Mass., this spring on the first class trip in two years.
The class trip, scheduled for June 6 through 8, will see students visiting historical sites in Boston and Six Flags New England.
Superintendent David J. Glover said this years senior class earned the trip.
Mr. Glover said the class of 2014 is a go-get-em group, helping run the districts haunted house on Halloween and setting up a Morristown Central School light display at Lights on the River in Lisbon.
At Wednesdays board of education meeting – where the trip was unanimously approved – Mr. Glover said not one of Morristowns senior class is ineligible for the trip for either academic or behavioral reasons.
Mr. Glover said he is confident that the class is ready for the trip and he is comfortable with their plans.
The trip will cost between $600 and $700 per student, though Mr. Glover said thanks to the classs fundraising efforts he expects very little of the cost to be shouldered by the students families.
The senior class has been raising money by operating a concession stand at sporting events, running dress-down and hat days for students and faculty, pie sales, bottle drives and flip-flop sales.
The dates for the trip will not interfere with state testing.
Mr. Glover said over the years senior trips at Morristown have only taken place if the funding and planning is firmly established. It is not something that happens every year by default.
Nice job, senior class, board of education Vice President Darrell W. Merkel said.

Event fulfills PART's mission to support education
STUART - High fashion was in the environment, and the audience of 120 plus took in every bit of that afternoon's fashion show's excitement, an event recently sponsored by the Pan American Round Table (PART).
The models very professionally represented various boutiques at Harbor Bay Plaza in Stuart. These well-trained runway models rivaled New York, London and LA models. They introduced the latest in tropical style fashions which included a variety of trendy, colorful outfits, shoes, an assortment of handbags and accessories.
Complemented by a wonderful multi-course luncheon presentation by none other than Renato's Italian Ristorante, the fashion show was, to say the least, a beautiful and festive setting enhanced with background music. It was not difficult to observe the happy faces in the audience. PART received multiple complimentary reviews on the professional presentation. And, all of this festivity was to benefit scholarships and our other mission commitments.
PART thanks the local vendors in the Saint Lucie and Martin county communities, who so graciously and generously supported our Fashion show event by donating gift certificates, and gift items. Our small organization cannot do it alone. We count on the generosity of our local community to help achieve our fund-raising goals. The vendor donations made it possible for our organization to hold a silent auction and a raffle, and to give door prizes.
Pan American Round Table (PART) of the Treasure Coast is one of 222 chapters established in 19 countries throughout the Western Hemisphere. This non-profit organization was founded almost 100 years ago by Florence Griswold, who believed in fostering mutual understanding, knowledge/education, and friendship among the peoples of the Americas. Ms Griswold encouraged that we learn and understand each others' traditions. This understanding, she felt, would help to unite our multi-cultural people in this part of the world.
Our organization continuously strives to achieve one of PART's primary missions - that of supporting education. We hold regular fund-raising events. These events have successfully generated sufficient funds to provide three to four $l,000.00 scholarships per year to Martin and St. Lucie counties' selected students.
PART is not just about scholarships. Our organization also supports the local community in other ways. Just to name a few: collecting and giving toys to poor children at Christmas, donations of school supplies to low income students at a selected school and
Thanksgiving food baskets to families in need.
Additionally, a dentist PART member held a demonstration on dental care and donated dental supplies to Indiantown low income families. Donations of clothing to a domestic violence organization have also been made.
Volunteers from varied cultural backgrounds make up our membership. Without the support of our excellent networking membership, our fund-raiser events could not be realized.
For more information regarding the Pan American Round Table (PART), or if you have questions about becoming a member, please call our Director at 772-220-0348.

FAQs Data Reporting Investigation Immunization Resources
Listeriosis is an illness caused by the bacteria Listeria monocytogenes.
Listeriosis is transmitted primarily through ingestion of contaminated food. Transmission also occurs in utero from mother to fetus.
People most at risk of infection include individuals with weakened immune systems, the elderly and pregnant women.
A person with listeriosis usually has fever and muscle aches, sometimes preceded by diarrhea or other gastrointestinal symptoms.
Almost everyone who is diagnosed with listeriosis has "invasive" infection, in which the bacteria spread beyond the gastrointestinal tract. The symptoms vary with the infected person"
Symptoms for pregnant women can be non-specific and include:
Infection during the pregnancy can cause the following:
Symptoms in non-pregnant individuals include:
The incubation period from the ingestion of a contaminated food to symptom onset can range from 1 day up to 70 days.
General recommendations for avoiding Listeriosis:
Food handling:
Kitchen safety:
Food Storage and preparation safety:
Recommendations for high risk groups (Pregnant women, elderly and those with weakened immune systems):
Soft Cheese:
Recent Texas Trends
Over the last decade the average number of cases of Listeriosis in Texas has been 42 cases per year (ranging from 24 to 64). Many cases have been attributed to high risk foods listed above. Recent outbreaks of listeriosis, involving cases in Texas, have been associated with Mexican-style cheeses such as queso fresco, diced celery, and whole cantalope.

Shogren Performance Marine kicked off the 2011 River Shiver in style with the 2012 39CC Nortech which debuted for the NIOC Club Members.
This years even was a great turnout and had the largest River Shiver attendance ever.
Sunday was gorgeous weather for this time of year and everybody ran up the Chain O' Lakes starting at Famous Freddie's and made a few stops. The first stop was at Vicki's Place in McHenry for lunch and the Bear's kick off. After lunch everyone headed up the chain to Captain's Quarters in Antioch. Everyone later on headed up to Blarney Island. At the end of the day we all met back at Famous Freddie's in Fox Lake for dinner and raffle prizes.
Shogren Performance will be attending several events this season, and we hope to see you there!

Rabbi Eric H. Yoffies Comments Union for Reform Judaism Conference Call Regarding "The Passion of the Christ MovieFebruary 26, 2004
The Passion of the Christ Resource Sites:
Commission On Interreligious Affairs
Reform Jewish Youth
I will begin our call with three comments that perhaps can help us to frame the discussion.
A:Mel Gibsons role has been despicable.
People have been careful not to call him an anti-Semite, and I am not going to suggest that he is.
But, going back five or six months, he marketed the film and did so very effectively by saying inflammatory things about Jews and the Jewish people, by threatening to kill his critics, by claiming that his enemies were threatening to kill him, and in general by setting Jews against Christians and liberal Christians against conservative Christians.
And while certainly not denying the Holocaust as his father has done, at one point he minimized its importance and at another point he charged that Judaism was trying to blame the Holocaust on the Catholic Church.
In recent weeks, Mr. Gibson has substantially modified his tone, and that is welcome in every way.
But Mr. Gibson is not simply a director who happens to be a religious man with some idiosyncratic views. He is also a savvy Hollywood insider who has exploited and fomented controversy in order to sell movie tickets
B:My second comment: I have no patience for those who say we should have remained silent.
In this country, when we face threats or potential threats, we organize, we educate, we lobby; we fight back.
But having said that, I have frequently been uncomfortable in recent months with statements on this film made by Jewish leaders.
The fact that we need to be saying something doesnt mean that what we say is wise, thoughtful, or effective.
Prominent Jewish conservatives have been defensive and apologetic about the movie, professing to see a balanced portrayal of Jews there that simply does not exist. It seems to me that they are much more interested in maintaining their ties with the Christian right than with evaluating this movie in an objective way.
Jewish critics of the film, on the other hand, have often made statements that strike me as alarmist, sensationalist, and sometimes at least bordering on the demagogic. This is a troubling film, and vigilance is always in order, but North American Jews do not face pogroms or imminent violence, and our position in American society is not being undermined in any fundamental way. The critics do us no favor when, in commenting on the dangers of this film, they make no allowance for the kind of country in which we live or for the basic good sense of the American people.
C:Final point: Until yesterday, this film was the domain of the critics, the scholars, the columnists, and the talk show hosts. But now it belongs to the people and the communities.
Permit me to explain.
Yesterday I sat through this film in a Times Square Theater with approximately a thousand people. It was exceedingly difficult for me to watch. It is a grim, angry, and bloody film, essentially a two hour-long execution, with ample torture and agony along the way.
And in the matter of the stereotyping of Jews, all of our worst fears were confirmed. It is not a close call. The Jews in this film are evildoers. We see the bloodthirsty mob crying for Jesus blood. We see the scheming priests. We see the timid and indecisive Pontius Pilate, who reluctantly lets the Jews talk him into crucifying Jesus.
I sat there stunned and uncomfortable, and struggling to understand where the positive religious message was in all of this.
But then I looked around. While I know that there is no such thing as a Christian response to this movie, many, many people in the theater with me were transfixed. The woman in the seat next to me sobbed throughout much of the movie. At the end there was substantial applause.
I thought about trying to talk to the woman in the next seat, but I decided against it. For her, this had clearly been a powerful religious experience. And I was quite sure that she did not want to hear my historical analysis, or questions that she might hear as accusatory, or anything that might appear, intentionally or not, to be passing judgment on her religious feelings and beliefs.
And I suspected that the Jewish issue so central to me was much more marginal for her. In fact, in interview after interview, Christians who were moved by the film have said that they really do not understand the charge of anti-Semitism and what the Jews are talking about.
My dilemma our dilemma is this: how do we demonstrate respect for this womans feelings and beliefs, while guarding against anti-Semitic seeds that may have been planted by the movie?
And the answer is, first, that we avoid hysterical and over-heated rhetoric. An extreme example of what we dont do is what a group in New York is doing: sending people to see the film dressed as concentration camp residents; what message does that send to the woman in the next seat? We will speak about the issues sincerely and openly, but in moderate and respectful tones, recognizing the sincerity of other peoples religious convictions.
And most important: coalition, coalition, coalition. In the final analysis, if the woman in the next seat is going to discuss these issues, she is going to be most comfortable discussing them with someone who shares her deeply held Christian beliefs and who can understand the film in ways that I cannot. If she is open to discussion at all, it will not likely be with a rabbi, but with a minister, a priest, or an educated Christian layperson.
And this is where we come in. We are the largest grassroots presence in the Jewish community, we believe in bridge building and dialogue with our Christian neighbors, and now we will be put to the test. We need to do on a massive scale what so many of our rabbis and congregations have already begun to do. We need clergy institutes and dialogue with Christian leaders, encouraging them to educate in their congregations just as we will educate in ours. We need to welcome their input into our congregational courses and suggest that they welcome our input into theirs. This is the moment for which all of those relationships have been built, and if we havent been building those relationships, we need to start immediately. A successful response to The Passion of the Christ will not be measured by the number of speeches we give or the number of articles we write, but by what our Christian friends and neighbors say in their churches and schools.
So lets get to work.

Watch the Characters of 'Frozen' Dance To 'Thriller' and 'Gangnam Style'
By Alyssa Pereira April 25, 2014 3:09 PM
Well, here's a twist we didn't see coming.
There's no way to ease you into this, so we're just going to throw it out there: a Frozen superfan created a video of the film's stars dancing to Michael Jackson's hit "Thriller." And there are other ones too.
Here's the shocker: they're pretty great. "Thriller" features Elsa, Anna, Kristoff, and Hans dancing along with Elsa at the front. "Gangnam Style" sees Elsa and Anna rocking Psy's signature gallup. Check them both out below.

Wappa From Homegrow (Stapleface)
Wappa Wappa Wappa! Do we know the genetics on this?
Submitted By: Stapleface (Member and Editor)
Camera Used: Samsung L200
Name: Wappa
From: Homegrow
Grade: A
Type: Indica
Price: N/A
Looks: Very frosty dense indica nugs. A nice dark green with thick bright orange hairs. The pictures do it no justice, one day I'll get better at taking photos of nugs.
Smell: At first smell it doesn't smell like anything special. Kind of musty and earthy. When you break it up the musty earthy smell is replaced with a dank piney earth smell. Kind of kushy. To me it's just the smell of a good indica but kushy is the best way I can describe it so most here understand.
Taste: The taste is similar to the smell of the broken up flower; piney and earthy. I love that taste. To me it screams old school. I remember this taste from early in my smoking years.
Buzz Type: The buzz type of Wappa is pure indica. It all goes to the body. Not a motivating cannabis, but it works perfectly for the nausea that I deal with in the morning. Honestly, I am amazed that I was able to find something all indica from a seed that I bought from a seed company. Usually labeled indica or not, it's going to have some sativa influence.
Buzz Length: Medium. The buzz is about 1 and a half to 2 hours long depending on how much I smoke. Two bong hits is 1 1/2, 3 bong hits is 2 hours. Very nice for me.
Overall: I really love the Wappa for its medical qualities. It works perfectly for my nausea. Lately it has made my mornings a lot easier to deal with. I would suggest it for anyone with similar issues and for anyone who has trouble eating. This will give you an appetite. –Stapleface
Ahhhh…the "old school weed" taste. I remember it too. The weed of today smells and tastes so different. Sometimes even completely unrecognizable. –DankDiva

That second pic closely resembles White Russian. Beauty grow. I love cannabis that has an 'old school' taste!
Golf clap for Stapleface! *Clap, clap, clap*
The Wappa wont disappoint you if you decent to give her a go stak. I have a clone that I took from this plant that I will harvest in about 2 weeks. The clone has tighter and frostier nugs than the mom did, and looks like it will finish about a week faster. Gotta love clones, they are so mature when you flower them they just bud like crazy. Thanks for the kind words guys.
lovin the orange pistils
the pics look fine 2 me. especially considering we get alot of bad cell phone pics
nice homegrow bud. nugs look real properly done

The HUB: College Launches New Multimedia Source
by Courtney Coombes, photo by David Vaughn, screen captures from www.ttuhub.net
The College of Media & Communication launched a new innovative mass medium – the HUB@TTU. The HUB is created by college students and is produced for a student audience.
The college has moved and changed names in the past year. The next step is launching media to host student work. The HUB gives College of Media & Communication students the opportunity to publish their work on their website, at www.ttuhub.net.
Journalism professor Randy Reddick, Ph.D., said the seeds of the HUB have been around for a while.
"We first did experiments in the 2005-2006 academic year, and we did a little bit of research," Reddick said, "and it has been a kind of a thing several of us, particularly the faculty, have talked about over time."
Reddick said during the process of hiring HUB staff members, the faculty members asked the students to communicate their visions and what they would want to do with the new idea.
"We envisioned coming out of this: video productions, a website that was going to be the home, and a place where students can point to and say, 'See what I did there!'" Reddick said.
The HUB stands for the "center of all things."
"In the long-term, it is our sense that our name is going to be out there in a way that it has not been before," Reddick said. "We will have new ways to call attention to what our students are doing, and as a result, that is going to bring attention and recognition to the university."
Media & Communication professor Pete Brewton, J.D., said the long-term goal of the HUB is to have every student in the college involved so they can take ownership of their work.
Brewton said he thinks students should know that the College of Media & Communication now has a good forum for students' work to be published so that everyone in the world can see it. Knowing the work is going to be made public is an incentive for students to do their best work.
"I think it's great publicity, primarily a way to show off our students' work not only to other students but to Lubbock and potential employers so students have a chance to build a portfolio of work," Brewton said. "I think it's unique right now because there is not anything like it."

"I think that the college will benefit from the HUB because it will show how talented and creative the students from the college are," Poe said. "The Hub will also allow us to stand out from other university news sources."
Poe said some of the main goals of the HUB are to change the idea of a media outlet by giving the entire campus an opportunity to contribute, to report stories of student interest, to encourage students to submit original work to be published on the website, and to give students a chance to share their talents, creativity and opinions.
"We are really excited about the Hub so far and its potential in the future," Poe said. "We really want students to get involved and become active members in this process."
Katie Cook, a junior public relations major, said she thinks the HUB will be a great benefit to the college.
"I love the overall idea of students collaborating together to share opinions, ideas, and news stories," Cook said. "I think it is much more entertaining to get information from the HUB because its news pertains more specifically to my lifestyle and it's brought to me by my fellow peers."
Cook said she cannot wait to see how the HUB will benefit both the college and the students who submit their work.
