Foodie Fears After Surgery -- Roasted Beet Quiona Salad
13 comments:
It's quite scary about the gallbladder. I have gallstones and have been trying to eat carefully so I don't have to get my gallbladder removed, so far so good, but I know I will have to do that at some point. That's cool how great minds think alike :) The quinoa salad is delicious and healthy!
ReplyDeleteRepliesHehe yeah! I just was thinking of all the things I love in a salad--roasted beets and asparagus and goat cheese top that list!
I heard there really is little you can do to prevent gallstones, though fat content in the diet might be a factor. It's really not that bad of a procedure, I was out of the hospital within 24 hours and was able to get out of bed after a day or two. It's the post-surgery that's giving me trouble.
Like I've mentioned before, I've had quite a few friends with gall bladder issues and they all had to deal with post-surgery life differently. It sounds like it is trial and error...I hope it all works out!
ReplyDeleteRepliesYeah, one of my good friends got hers removed a few months ago and she's been good about giving me advice. With her, she says it doesn't really effect her diet, she just needs to always be near a bathroom. Not fun! Basically all I can take from my research is that every case is different and it will be a lot of trial and error. Scary, but I've overcome worse, I just need to chill out about it, haha.
I think that's a good decision to decide to just listen to your body and work out what will work for you. It's probably not as bad as most people on the internet will write about, mostly because they wouldn't be writing unless it was bad for them. Hopefully you'll be able to find a way to eat the foods you love and still feel good. It looks like this quinoa salad is a good start toward eating healthy food. I love quinoa and how fluffy it is.
ReplyDeleteGah. I'd be freaking out too if I were you. But really, what I would do is introduce foods one at a time, little by little, so you can really tell how you're reacting to each one and that way you'll know for sure what to avoid and waht not to avoid. And then repeat in 6 months when your body has had more time to get used to life without a gall bladder. And in the meantime...quinoa salad. Delicious!
ReplyDeleteRepliesYeah... I've never been a patient person, so that's an issue for me, haha. But I know it's what I have to do. I think I'm going to start a food journal and carry it around or something. Last night actually I had a burger, and was surprisingly okay. I'll have to keep experimenting though, because I could have just had enough bile to handle it that time, but next time my body might spaz out. We'll see I guess!
Hope the recovery is smooth. I'm not completely sold on quinoa yet, but have been getting pretty busy with all sorts of other pulses lately in an effort to escape the crutch of white carbs....

taki - cant quite tell from the pic, but is there any difference in the knob to knob carcass width?

I've got one of those but put a 2.25 NN on the front instead. Was that daft? Ralph any good when its not dry?
It's a rigid bike so I'm all in favour of a bit of cushion.

Is it my eyes or is the new one bigger than the old one ?

Great performance on the back for me (singlespeed and geared) - I also will be keeping mine on all year and putting a front on for the summer
New new ones have slightly tastier graphics IMHO and a big 29" logo on the side (in case you forget)

As best as I can measure in my freezing garage...
(Widest knob width)
2.4 = 60mm
2.35 = 58mmCircumference:
(Peice of string around tyre & rim at aforementioned W.K.W)
2.4 = 220mm
2.35 = 215mmSide knobs are noticbly smaller on the 2.35.
If your after some squish for a fully rigid bike (like me) they are spot on at about 26psi.
Rims are TN719's.Posted 4 years ago # -
I get 61mm for the 2.4" on my 35mm rims.
so just a shade smaller then.
Interesting subtle differences in tread patterns.

Oh Heather it looks and sounds gorgeous, specially love the comment about ex pats packing the wine and aperos I can always spot the ex pats in the Summer at our local Intermarche, just by their trolley, copious bottles of wine, mountains of cheese and a couple of baguettes.
XPeaceful it is. But the Texan in me would be claustrophobic, however, even I could manage one lovely evening there I'm sure. And, I know the owners were delightful. The puppy is smiling so I'll take his word for it. :)'s
ReplyDeleteIt all looks so lovely. Lucky you. 73 degrees in Apt this am and 36 degrees here. I am in the wrong place but your blog brought a little sunshine my way. Thanks and have fun.
ReplyDeleteWhat a fun little place. Even Ben is smiling... and at that price! Wow. As for that little side trip to the local Superette, I certainly hope you did not forget le saucisson. You are not an expat anymore after all these years, and you live with a French guy. Pas de pique-nique sans le saucisson, Heather! Allez, bon weekend au soleil de Provence, lucky girl. Veronique (French Girl in Seattle)
ReplyDeleteI will take a weekend getaway at La Tuilerie. A cozy dinner under that tree, sipping the leftover wine, watching the glittering stars in the night sky, the weekend getaway may get extended to a week long stay. Lovely place!
Have a great weekend Heather!
AmeliaHello Heather
You found another treasure to stay at. How peaceful and tranquil and that the owners were also calm and understanding of your need for rest.
Ben just cannot believe his luck, however, I think in his mind he feels where you and Remi are is heavenly.
Enjoy your weekend. We are invited for Thanksgiving dinner (Canadian eh!) in the country and the Autumn colours are promised to be excellent.
Helen xxHeather, the skies in these images is so, so blue! Precious few things from which my spirit drinks deeply as a sky of that particular intensity.
The moment I looked at your room, I thought to myself, that place looks cool and quiet -- come to find out it is underground (practically) ! I love the way you articulate the tipped-over bucket of stars. This makes outdoor plumbing almost desirable.
Our weekend was lovely -- I trust yours was, as well, dear friend.
Your responses are what makes this blog so special to me. I love hearing from you. Thank you for visiting!

Buzzkill and Jmpdgs,
They certainly do look good. A lot better than my first tries for sure. I'm glad to see others were pulled into trying this. For me this has been a real learning experience about try and try again. Im happy with my results, but the process and learning curve really took a lot of time for me. Its a real reminder of the abilities in everyone with motivation to start and then try again and again. We may not all have warhead's abilities, but I'm happy to see everyone coming up with better pilots than what I see at the LHS. I use super sculpey and my tools consist of sharpened toothpicks and bamboo skewers of different size, some scalpel blades, a round piece of smooth plastic with a rounded end for smoothing, and a very small pin attached to a handle for details. In making the figures, I think the hardest thing to do is know when to stop. I can go on and on fretting over some little detail for way too long. What Ive found though is that once I stop, I can be confident that when I start a new one, it will be a step better. As an example, heres my latest try. I just put it in the oven to cook and if it turns out and I get time Ill detail how I make a mold in my next posting. ImagesView all Images in thread
Well worth the effort Josh. That's great work. I'm psyched seeing all this talent. Hope some rubs off. Cheers Joe |
I use clay to create the mold half and put some little holes in it. When I pour in the silicone for that half it creates the pegs. Then i remove the clay and pour the other half. May not be the easiest method but it works with the materials i use. Ill post some pictures of this method and it will be clearer.

Wow! Warhead and Hammered just way too cool!
Josh, Thank you so much for the detailed instuctions. A year or so ago I was going to give this a try and bought a trial size batch of Smooth On, Feather Lite Part A & B and their Universal Release. Have you tried the feather lite stuff? I need to get their silicone After seeing your instructions (thank you again) I may give this a shot. The only thing is now I'm into scratch building Micro planes and need to make pilots for those at 1:24 -1:30 scale details I would think are going to be hard to get but I'll give it a shot. I'll have to try and find some Legos (use to have tons but my boys are now young men in their 20's. Oldest just turned 22yesterday with the 2/2 Marines somewhere near or in Libya. The Micro pilot I used in my Micro P-47 build was designed by Toni and made by Shapeways 3D cutting. I'd love to be able to make my own in this scale but again I'm just not sure of the level of details. I've also vac formed my own Sculpty molded pilots but in the smaller sizes the details are hard to get vac forming even though I may have a good mold. Thanks Pete |
I've gotten so much from reading these groups over the years I thought it was time to post something that might be of use to someone else. I've enjoyed your building techniques for years now so its gratifying if you can get anything from my experience. One thought struck me as I did it too. It really makes these projects significantly longer if you are documenting it. Made me doubly appreciate the time put into helping others from experts like Tritle, Hammered, Rake, Maltone, and on and on. My thoughts on your small scale stuff: I'm guessing that every tenth of a gram is significant on a project so small. There's a Smooth-on distributor in Dallas that I stopped at once and I looked at that feather-lite resin. It might be much lighter than a regular resin, but my impression was that it was still much heavier than the two part foam they sell. If you are making very small parts, I don't think you would save anything by using the slosh method to make a hollow shell with it. I've never tried to make anything smaller than a 1/18th scale figure, but I was happy with the results I got with the foam and techniques above. Managed to make one that weighed just a gram. Seems that at 1/24th to 1/32 scale, you are approaching sizes that are commonly modeled in plastic. I wonder if you could find a nice plastic kit on ebay with a pilot figure. Then you could just make a mold of that. I've heard tell of old Airfix kits (spitfire and me109?) that were 1/24th scale. a quick search on ebay yeilded these. http://cgi.ebay.com/Ulrich-Mini-Men-...item20b4f2f346 http://cgi.ebay.com/G-1-24-1-25-scal...item3cb6cf0dee http://cgi.ebay.com/G-1-24-1-25-scal...item5adddaba21 May not be exactly what your looking for but it might be a place to start. All the best, Josh |
Josh, that's the same method I use with the Lego's and it works really well. I do have one more idea to add but I need to take a photo before posting that.
Warhead that is just beautiful. You've taught yourself something that most people couldn't learn in an art school. Pete, I'm experimenting now with some very small pilots. Maybe about 1/30 or so. I'm in the same boat as you. I need something that is light but also picks up the fine detail I want. I have used Feather Light before and it does live up to it's name. Unfortunately the filler they use to make it so light also makes it prone to leaving bubbles in very small castings. It is not lighter than foam but does pick up more detail when it works right. The thing I don't like is the packaging. You have to dip it out of the cans to use. I actually store some in smaller screw top glass jars which make it easier to use. Zach |
I just realized I don't think I ever posted a finished picture of Impact Bob in this thread.
This was one of my first pilots and was more for fun than anything. I hope to have my pilots on my website in about a week or less. I'm an engineering student and I'm waiting for finals to get over before I start to make the necessary changes to my site. It's never as easy as it should be. If you have some spare time I'm hosting an Easter egg hunt on my website today and both prizes are still unspoken for. www.tailspinaviation.com Zach |
Thanks Josh & Zach,
Again great stuff. I'll order some of the foam and give it a try. There are some pretty darn good plastic 1:32 scale and a few as you wrote 1:24 pilots out there for sure. I only have one micro VVS Yak-1b at the 1:32 size. Most of my micros are a tad larger 1:29+-. Easy Built has some great very light 1:24 vac formed WWII pilots that I use but they lack details unless added or painted on. Keep up the great work. Thanks, Pete |

Nov. 10, 2004 - In baseball, if a pitcher retires all 27 batter he faces it's called a "Perfect Game." So what is considered perfection on the football gridiron? The Pee Wee team of the Marana Broncos has an idea of what is takes to complete the ultimate regular season.
The Pee Wees, a member team of the Tucson Youth and Spirit Federation, posted a perfect 9-0 season playing out of Division II. Other teams have gone an entire schedule without a blemish on its record. What separates this squad of 10-12 year-olds is the way they accomplished their flawless campaign.
In nine games, not one team scored on the Broncos - not a touchdown or a field goal. Nine games have come and nine straight teams have been shutout by this imposing bunch working together in perfect football cohesion.
The shutout streak came perilously close to ending in the Broncos' final game, a 38-0 win over the Falcons at Tucson High School. The Falcons managed to go where no team had previously gone before by driving down inside the Broncos five yard line. Facing a first-and-one, the Broncos stopped the Falcons twice before the Falcons coughed up a fumble on third down.
"If someone does score on them, they are not going to be happy," said Broncos head coach Steve Karp in the days leading up the game against the Falcons. Karp's Broncos have been so dominating this season, that before the Falcons game, no team had been able to penetrate the defense's 19-yard line. In the two previous games against the Chargers (35-0 win) and Redskins (37-0), neither team could even muster a first down.
"On offense, no one can stop them," said Karp. "They work magically together."
Karp said it is the team's unselfish attitude and trust in one another that has the Broncos heading into the city playoffs Nov. 13 on a winning streak.
That selfless approach to the game has allowed every player on the team a chance to shine. To get everyone in the action, the Broncos at times have switched up their lineup and had kids who are usually offensive lineman run the ball while the running backs act as the blockers. Karp said it's not a means to show anyone up, but simply a way to get all the kids involved. With everybody involved the Broncos have outscored its opponents this season by a score of 310-0.
Obviously, the Broncos aren't designed solely around an unstoppable offense. The defense is among the biggest and strongest Karp said he has ever seen. In one instance this season, the coach says he was approached by a referee who told him the other team was complaining that the Broncos were hitting too hard.
After trying its luck in the city playoffs the Broncos will head to Orlando, Fla. to compete on the national level. There they are guaranteed at least two games with the possibility to play four and be crowned national champs among other fifth through seventh graders.
The only thing that seemingly can stop the Broncos this season is the shortage of funds to make the trip to the Sunshine State. Karp estimates the team needs to raise about $30,000 for every kid to be able to go. The kids are raising the money through car washes, selling tickets to local events and by asking sponsors to buy a banner. Organizations such as the NFL have come through so far for the Broncos, donating $5,000. With three weeks before the Thanksgiving weekend trip, Karp puts the fundraising efforts short about $8,000.
"We just got to keep at it," said Karp.

1. Amazing. I truly mean that
And your timing is perfect. It's not just Zimmerman apologists that needed to hear that.
There was a post here a few weeks ago where someone posted just some straight up NASTY racially insensitive stuff about the president. And she got called on it by me, another black poster and more than a few white posters too. Another poster was so incensed that someone took offense to her little friend's nasty comment, she actually created a post CHASTISING those of us who found the comment disgusting, and there were quite a few. Added to that, the person who initially made the comment never apologized and doubled down harder, even after people told her the comment was offensive, appalling, and a slew of similar adjectives. I honestly didn't know what was worse. The initial comment or the folks that came rushing out of the woodwork to not only excuse it, but to accuse those of us who found the comment offensive of tossing around "false accusations of bigotry." Every time I see sh*t like this, I remember RainyB's comment from a few years ago that being CALLED a racist is apparently worse in some people's head than actually BEING racist. It was unreal but not surprising in the slightest way. |

2. There is no sin in not having the same beliefs here
DU is not a zero-tolerance zone for free thought, free opinions, and free expression.
There is a lot that is unknown about the Martin/Zimmerman incident. There is a lot that people think they know that is likely untrue. There is almost nothing known about the most critical part of that incident; what happened between the time Zimmerman said "Ok" after being told "we don't need you to (follow him)" and the time that Martin was shot. Nobody can deny that a young man now lies dead and will never have the chance to brighten the lives of his family, live his hopes and dreams, or contribute to society. Nobody can deny that some sort of tragedy happened that night. But the matter of whether Zimmerman is guilty or innocent according to Florida law is not something that defines what it is to be a Democrat, or a Liberal, or a Progressive. This issue is no acid test for our politics. And with the evidence that is known to the public at this time, it is not possible to definitely say what happened in those few short minutes. So, I certainly hope that you are not saying that dissent on this issue is unwelcome on DU. Personally I'm tired of seeing the same points argued back and forth. At this point, especially in the absence of new evidence, nobody is going to convince anybody to change their mind. |

5. i call bullshit
i am saying that zimmerman apologists are racists. whether they know they are racists or not is another story, hence my post.
the evidence is pretty clear...only in america is there this need to morph a clearly racially-motivated crime into something else, e.g., blaming the victim. This is the kind of shit my post addresses, one that assumes Martin was the aggressor. So is this an excuse for not being able to handle being under suspicion? That blacks are under so much suspicion that it's alright to fight it out with whoever finds you suspicious. I'm white and I can handle it when someone finds me to be suspicious. Just because some old lady doesn't know why I'm standing at the bus stop is not my problem. Because I know I'm not doing anything illegal. So yes, I brush it off and move on. I don't confront the old lady because people find me suspicious. Didn't Trayvon know he wasn't doing anything illegal? Yes he probably did. But he just couldn't handle Zimmerman's suspicion onto him.

6. One may not logically purport to be Progressive
And not admit the huge raging problem of racism in our nation. I will forever believe and support the concept of "innocence until proven guilty".
*However* That doesn't mean I'm blind to the fact that Zimmerman got out of his vehicle armed. And interacted with Martin in some way that led to a shooting death. If you want to argue to me that Zimmerman had a right to get out of his vehicle and put himself there and then, then there is no context that you and I can relate to, in order to achieve a rational and civilized conclusion. But that doesn't mean our justice system might not find him innocent. |

of course the trial SHOULD bring out the real truth, but i have little faith in the justus sytem...for good reason. and of course, some of my fellow americans, democrats, and liberals do not understand my mistrust, or that it is shared by many african-americans. zimmerman should be tried, and convicted, imho, based on his phony excuse for murdering: i was scared if he was so afraid, then why didn't he stay in the car, as he was instructed to do? he totally lacks credibility, imho. yeah, one can purport to be progressive and still be in denial about racism...a privilege that i certainly do not have.

Sonora battles back but falls to Kaiser
FONTANA - Kaiser of Fontana baseball coach Mike Spinuzzi knew his team didn't get a typical opponent for a No. 2 seed in the CIF-SS Division 4 playoffs.
"That is a really good team," Spinuzzi said of Sonora. "We knew they'd be tough. They're from Orange County, their coach has been there a long time."
So even when Kaiser jumped out to an early lead, Spinuzzi wasn't surprised when the Cats had to hold on to beat Sonora, 6-5, Thursday afternoon at Kaiser High.
Kaiser (24-3) advances to host Ramona of Riverside in the second round.
Sonora, which won a wild-card game on Tuesday, ended its season at 16-16.
"We feel like if we don't make any errors, we're going to win the game," Kaiser pitching coach Rob Ridge said.
That's what Kaiser did, but it was far from easy.
The Cats led, 5-0, after two innings and 6-2 after three, but it got tight at the end.
The Raiders' Max Wilkinson delivered a three-run single with two outs in the sixth inning to close the gap to 6-5 against Kaiser starter Armando Duenas.
"He was right on the edge," Spinuzzi said of Duenas coming out. "But then he struck out their best hitter (Dylan Villalobos)."
Duenas retired all three hitters in the seventh on groundouts to shortstop Oscar Rocha, who threw them all out on close plays at first.
That finished a game in which Kaiser won by making fewer mistakes.
"We had errors, baserunning mistakes and we didn't execute (on offense)," Sonora coach Patrick Tellers said. "That doesn't add up to a win."
Sonora had five hits in 10 at-bats with runners in scoring position, but only two of those hits scored runs.
"A lot of those had to do with who the baserunner was," Tellers said.
Kaiser jumped on Villalobos early, with Jason Lopez's bad-hop single keying a two-run first and Ochoa's two-run double keying a three-run second. Carlos Sernas' second double led to a run in the third.
"We tried to be aggressive early against his fastball," Spinuzzi said. "But then he went to his off-speed stuff and we had trouble adjusting."
Sonora had an error and passed balls early, a runner thrown out at third on a grounder to shortstop, a runner picked off at first base, and another runner thrown out at the plate on a grounder to shortstop.
"We lose only four seniors," Tellers said. "Hopefully, we'll be back strong next year."

He wears a Spider-Man mask over prescription glasses or some type of industrial goggles, and carries a gun. You can watch some security camera footage of him here. To get to the bottom of the situtation, one Chattanooga TV station interviewed the town's biggest Spider-Man fan. Advertisement Says Stephen Pratt:He's strong. He can jump really high. He's got really good agility, kind of like a spider or something like that you know. He's really smart.It's not really clear from the context whether Pratt is talking about Peter Parker, or the guy who's robbed the same La Quinta hotel twice, plus a Kangaroo Express, a Motel Six and a Conoco. But Pratt does go on to say, of the bandit: "Any real Spider-Man fan wouldn't go out and do that." The article concludes that the Spider-Man bandit is "weaving his own web of capture" with every daring late-night raid. [WDEF Channel 12 news]Reply22 repliesLeave a reply

Andrea Mitchells amazed reaction, after Sununu confirms that, why yes, he did indeed intend to call the president of the United States lazy, without skipping a beat is kind of priceless. JOHN SUNUNU: What people saw last night was a president that revealed his incompetence, how lazy and detached he is, and how he has absolutely no idea how serious the economic problems of the country are, and how he has failed to even begin to address them. And I think even the liberal press reacted with shock at this revelation, and I find it fascinating, now this morning, after theyve slept, to watch them all scrambling around to clean up the mess the president left on the floor last night. On the other hand, Mitt Romney came in with a lot of specifics, a lot of very sharp knowledge of issues, not only with the Obama-version of bumper-sticker numbers, but the governor showed that he understand policies and he understand how to make policy into law talking about what he did in Massachusetts.
ANDREA MITCHELL: Governor, I want to give you a chance to maybe take it back. Did you really mean to call Barack Obama, the president of the United States, lazy?
JOHN SUNUNU: Yes. I think you saw him admit it
he said, you know, theyre making me do this work. He didnt want to prepare for this debate. Hes lazy and disengaged.
(Excerpt) Read more at hotair.com ...
All one has to do is use Obama's own words to come to the same conclusion as Sununu did.
Love him!
On Fox news this morning Sununu said Obama would never do better in debates because he is just not that bright. That's what he said. I remember because I clapped when he said it.
He did not seem like he was really the President. Maybe he just reads the teleprompter and doesn't have to think much.
how did andrea mitchell ever make it in to journalism?
Just say it: Obama was a child of a well-to-do family who came of age in 1979, just as affirmative action was revving into overdrive. He is a lazy child of privilege who was handed everything.
Can't say "lazy."
That's code.
The MSM dogs are shocked.
I also saw the facial expression and body language in the same light as you. I'm wondering if Andrea and Alan have a shrine dedicated to Obama in their home?
She came along at a time when there were few women in the business and the networks needed to fill their female quota.
John Sununu gave us David Souter and ruined the Supreme Court for decades. Even when he's right, his opinion is worthless given the lasting damage he has done to the Constitution and the very fabric of American life.
BO is NOT that bright - he's been handed everything in life and given a pass, never challenged. When faced with superior intelligence, knowledge, and experience, he crumbled.
Sorry, did I say "lazy?" I take that back - I mean f***** incompetent
Sunnunu should have gone further and called him — "A no good, lazy, jug eared, Marxist basturd"
Maybe if his teachers and professors had spent more time actually preparing him for a day like yesterday, and less time building his self-esteem, he might not have embarrassed the nation with that half-a$$ed performance.
Romney was lecturing the president like he was a kid. It was like watching a 275 lb. weight trainer arm-wrestle a third grader. Good job NEA, Georgetown and Harvard! s///
The left loved to characterize W as borderline illiterate...
While the press knew the truth...
Wall Street Journal - Bush Is a Book Lover
By KARL ROVE
It all started on New Year's Eve in 2005. President Bush asked what my New Year's resolutions were. I told him that as a regular reader who'd gotten out of the habit, my goal was to read a book a week in 2006. Three days later, we were in the Oval Office when he fixed me in his sights and said, "I'm on my second. Where are you?" Mr. Bush had turned my resolution into a contest.
At year's end, I defeated the president, 110 books to 95. My trophy looks suspiciously like those given out at junior bowling finals. The president lamely insisted he'd lost because he'd been busy as Leader of the Free World.
There is a myth perpetuated by Bush critics that he would rather burn a book than read one. Like so many caricatures of the past eight years, this one is not only wrong, but also the opposite of the truth and evidence that bitterness can devour a small-minded critic. Mr. Bush loves books, learns from them, and is intellectually engaged by them.
He really isn't bright and we all knew it here but the vast majority was swayed by the obamov media. We saw him for who he really is...an empty suit...an empty chair. Without the protection of the media this guy wouldn't have gotten off the start point.
I think that the bigger issue here, then that he's lazy, is who is the "they" that he is admitting to being controlled by???
Thanks mandaladon.
I take it snopes doesn't want jpg's linked.
lazy? is that a new racist word? i can't keep up anymore.
you can't be lazy if you golf all the time! opps, sorry that's racist too, tiger plays golf.
basketball, don't know about it yet, if that is racist, could be though. however saying "chicago" is racist.
pretty sure "not doing your job or homework" is racist.
i need to get me a sissy mathews lexicon. now i am a homophobe.
i never got a tingle up my legs from listening to any man speak.
i must be abnormal, however, there were some girls when i was younger..............
blessings, bobo
In a Dec 23, 2011 interview on 20/20, Barbara Walters asked BHO what was his worst fault. His reply: "Laziness"
Those who are "swayed" to believe he's brilliant are willingly swayed.
Sheeperals have their sense of self worth wrapped up in whom they support.
"I'm smart because I agree with smart people."
She came along at a time when there were few women in the business and the networks needed to fill their female quota....I don't know her from back then, but are you saying SHE USED HER FEMALE PARTS????

Have you noticed that colleges and universities pride themselves on their diversity? They work hard at keeping it that way. They try to have students from as many states and countries as they can and from a representative spectrum of ethnic backgrounds. Currently that is still in your favor if you are African American or belong to a minority, not so good if you are the average Caucasian male. Your chances at a scholarship go up significantly if you can qualify for minority scholarships.
The link at http://www.blackexcel.org/200-Scholarships.html lists 200 scholarships for a variety of minority groups. What is really nice about the African American scholarships and grants is that the amounts are substantial. Many of these scholarships are in the $5000 and up range especially the ones tied to sciences. There has been a push to increase the presence of African Americans in the professional fields involving science and engineering. Just look at scholarships such as the UNCF Merck Science Initiative at http://umsi.uncf.org/ which offers undergraduate scholarships up to $25,000 or the American Physics Society's scholarships at http://www.aps.org/programs/minorities/honors/.
You should also check out the traditionally African American colleges in the United States. There are about forty of them and most have African American scholarships to allow minorities to fulfill their dream of college. Just don't make the mistake of thinking you can simply depend upon your ethnic background though. Remember, you are still applying to college, you need to demonstrate the appropriate qualifications to have a chance at these. However, if you are dedicated and can show that you have the skills to succeed, you have an excellent chance at receiving one of the African American scholarships.
Scholarship funds have been shrinking at most universities so if you are in high school and just starting on your search, determine which colleges and universities you are interested in and start checking into their tuition and housing fees. Most colleges end up raising fees every year. Some universities have been lucky and have been able to keep tuition rates unchanged such as The Ohio State University and others have such large endowment funds that they have been able to meet the economic downturn with increased financial aid efforts such as Harvard University.
Look at all the colleges. Don't assume because they have a great reputation, you have no chance of affording an education at that institution. If your academic ability matches their criteria, even if they do not offer African American scholarships, you may qualify for minority scholarships or scholarships based on financial need. In the end, your success in receiving scholarships from specific universities will depend on how well you have matched up your abilities, interests and background with what the universities you are applying to are looking for.
If you are from Tennessee and applying to a university in Tennessee, you may not have as good a chance at an African American scholarship as you would at a university in a predominantly Caucasian state such as Utah or Idaho. Open your mind to a wider range of choices. Consider different locations. Don't forget about your major either. Many scholarships are tied to what you plan to study. Race plays no role in many of these, however, there are minority scholarships tied to specific majors and companies. If you receive one from a company, they may expect you to work for them for a specified number of years once you graduate but in today's job market that may be an added benefit rather than an attached string. Basically, it is up to you to take off the blinders. Look for African American Scholarships but don't ignore the rest.

BP Comment Quick Links
May 5, 2010 Future Shock BlogMinor League Update: Games of May 4
A Positive Change Of Environments Mike Moustakas, 3B, Royals (Double-A Northwest Arkansas) Tuesday's stats: 3-for-5, 2B, HR (5), R, 3 RBI, BB, K The second overall pick in the 2007 draft, Moustakas never put up monster numbers. With both of Kansas City's A-ball affiliates in environments that strongly favor pitchers, it took nearly three years for him to finally play in a friendly place. An oblique strain delayed his 2010 season, but he's quickly making up for lost time, batting .417/.491/.917 in 12 games while amassing 44 total bases and driving in 16. He's finally looking like the player who earned a $4 million bonus, and with Alex Gordon and his position changes at Triple-A out of the way, his path to the big leagues is suddenly clear. Your Dominating Pitching Outing From A Surprising Source Rudy Owens, LHP, Pirates (Double-A Altoona) Tuesday's stats: 6 IP, 0 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 11 K Owens had the biggest breakout in the Pirates system last year, but he still left scouts wondering how his combination of average stuff but extreme polish would play at the upper levels. On Tuesday, Owens answered many of those questions by not allowing a hit and striking out 11 of the 19 batters he faced. His fastball sits in the upper 80s with the occasional 91-92 mixed in, his curveball is solid, and his change-up is true plus, but it's his fantastic command that allows him to succeed. His ceiling likely ends at a No. 4 starter, but one look at the Pirates pitching statistics shows that they could use one desperately. Hoping It Will Last Michael Pineda, RHP, Mariners (Double-A West Tenn) Tuesday's stats: 7 IP, 4 H, 0 R, 1 BB, 11 K Few question Pineda's ability to get hitters out as much as they wonder about his ability to always be available. Elbow problems limited him to less than 50 innings last year, and the amount of effort in his delivery leave many to wonder if he's better suited for a bullpen role down the road. So far, he's still a starter. So far, he's been healthy in 2010, and so far, he's been dominant, including last night's start which lowered his ERA to 1.27 in five outings. With a plus fastball, average-to-plus change, and cutter he uses in lieu of a true breaking ball, he's got big-league stuff and just needs to keep working to reach the big leagues. And Now He's Hitting Too Max Stassi, C, Athletics (Low-A Kane County) Tuesday's stats: 3-for-6, HR (4), R, RBI, 2 K While Stassi was a fourth-round pick last June, the A's gave him a first-round bonus of $1.5 million. Much of that was based on his defensive reputation, as he's one of the most advanced teenage receivers in recent memory, but his simple, short swing also gave some hope for his bat. With back-to-back three-hit games, he's up to .275/.350/.462 in 23 games for the Cougars, and in a league filled with good catching prospects, Stassi ranks with any of them. Drafted For His Bat, And Now You See Why Matt Davidson, 3B, Diamondbacks (Low-A South Bend) Tuesday's stats: 4-for-5, 2B, 2 HR (3), 3 R, 4 RBI, K The Diamondbacks spent $2.7 million dollars on a pair of high school third basemen in last year's draft, with Davidson and Bobby Borchering (featured in yesterday's report) splitting time at the position. Borchering is more likely to stay at the hot corner, and while Davidson is more likely destined for first base in the end, he's showing that his bat should play there—after last night's outburst, his season line is up to .374/.406/.586. Hot Streak! Neftali Soto, 1B/3B/C, Reds (Hi-A Lynchburg) Tuesday's stats: 2-for-5, HR (5), R, 2 RBI Between a .644 OPS and proving that he can't stay at third base, 2009 was a bad season for Soto's prospect status. Moved primarily to first base this year (with a little third base, and even catcher thrown in for good measure), Soto needs to take off with the bat, and he's doing just that. Including last night's walk-off home run, Soto is 11-for-18 with four home runs in his last four games and starting to get some of that luster back on his status. Others Of Note:

A little known fact.... The first testicular guard, the "Cup", was used in Hockey in 1874 and the first helmet was used in 1974. That means it only took 100 years for men to realize that their brain is also important. Ladies.....Quit Laughing.
did you know that its hardwired in mens brains to look at other women. Its a fact. So if you know any women, tell em to give us a friggin break cuz we cannot help it.
^^That was cute, next time you'll meet a really hot woman make sure you start a conversation with that.

In a recent talk, Sebastian Thrun and Chris Urmson of Google gave details of the project and showed videos of the robot cars driving themselves and even doing some stunts. The goal is that the technology will help reduce congestion, fuel waste, and accidents.

I want to be able to input my notein data to a matrixctrl grid, essentially using matrixctrl like a piano roll that records sequences.
how would i input the list of notes in to matrixctrl so that say the top row of the grid corresponds to say note number 98 and the rest follow sequentially? i can't seem to grasp how the coordinates work
metro ticks ->–>–>–> 98 98 98 98 midi note # 97 97 97 97 96 96 96 96 95 95 95 95 etc…….

A friend and I made a trip up to Diamond Tropical Hardwoods in Sellersville PA earlier this week, and I brought home several very nice Cocobolo bowl blanks among other items. Wishing to use as much of this beautiful wood as possible in projects, I'll be attaching sacrificial hardwood glue blocks to the bottoms before turning. Knowing Cocobolo to be somewhat oily, does anyone have suggestions for the best kind of application? All suggestions will be greatly appreciated! Thanks, Ron -- Once in awhile I make something really great. Most days I just make sawdust. |

Polenta cake with roasted rhubarb and lime curd
Polenta Cake
200 g | Sugar |
125 g | Unsalted butter |
3 Tbsp | Cream |
3 tsp | Cream cheese |
2 | Eggs |
185 g | Self raising flour |
1 tsp | Baking powder |
50 g | Polenta |
Roasted Rhubarb
Lime Curd
120 g | Sugar |
2 | Limes |
30 g | Unsalted butter |
2 | Free-range eggs |
- Cake: Preheat the oven to 180C and butter and line a 23cm springform tin.
- Cream together the sugar and butter until pale in colour and light and fluffy, then add the cream and cream cheese.
- Combine together well, then add the eggs, one at a time, beating between each addition.
- Sieve the flour and baking powder into the mixture and fold it carefully in, keeping a light and airy texture.
- Add the polenta and pour the mixture into the prepared tin. Bake for 30 minutes until the centre is cooked and the top is a lovely golden brown.
- Remove from the oven and turn the cake out onto a wire rack to cool. Place the cake onto a plate and dust with icing sugar.
- Serve with the rhubarb and spoonfuls of lime curd.
- Rhubarb: Preheat the oven to 180C. Trim the rhubarb, discarding the leaves, and with a small knife, pull away and discard the stringy outside skin of the rhubarb.
- Cut the stalks into 3cm lengths and place into a roasting dish. Add the water and sugar to the rhubarb.
- Place in the oven and cook until the sugar is dissolved, about 30 minutes. The rhubarb should have released some of its own juices and be a deep red colour.
- Carefully lift the stalks from the roasting dish, place in a container and once it is cold cover the rhubarb with the juices. It will keep for 2 weeks refrigerated.
- Curd: Grate the zest of one of the limes and set aside. Squeeze the juice from both limes and place with the sugar and butter into a saucepan.
- Beat the eggs together, stir into the saucepan and place over a low heat for 15 minutes, whisking frequently until the mixture has thickened slightly.
- Pour the curd through a sieve into a bowl and stir in the zest. Set to one side until cool and then refrigerate.
- The curd will keep for 1 week, covered with cling film.

2011 Dog Bite Fatality: Spotsylvania County Man Killed by Pet Pit Bull
Dog Caused DeathSpotsylvania County, VA - In an incident we were alerted to yesterday, The Free Lance-Star reports that an autopsy has confirmed that one of David Quyon Haigler's two pit bulls was responsible for his death. Haigler, 38-years old, was discovered dead in his home Saturday by his 18-year old son. The 6-year old pit bull accused in his death was loose in the home and initially would not allow responding deputies in, according to Sheriff's Lt. Col. Michael Timm.
Haigler was found dead on the living room floor with wounds to his upper body. Authorities noted that a wooden baseball bat was on a sofa near the body and that the room was in disarray. Court records stated that blood was seen on the floor, walls and several pieces of furniture. Haigler's other pit bull was found chained in different area of the home. Timm said the investigation is nearly over, except for the pending results of a toxicology screening.
Haigler was "already under medical care for a dog bite" that occurred a week earlier, according to yesterday's article. The victim also had a felonious past.

So one guess is the one pit was chained up was because it was the one that inflicted the previous wounds.
The one that killed him was the "nice" one. Bet the toxicology report will have positive results.
truthbird | 6/15/2011 12:17 AM | Flag
The "nice" one indeed, who finished him off. He survived serious prison time and all the dangerous that go with it, but he couldn't survive his dogs. This has to fit somewhere into ex-felon ironies..

i'm pretty sure his wiggle butt was only trying to administer CPR.

Dr Randall Lockwood pointed this phenomenon out during his 1986 "Are Pit Bulls Different?" article.
Statistically, Pit Bulls are roughly six times more likely to attack their owners, compared to other breeds.

On rare occasion a throw rug needs to be saved from our mutt by a squirt from a water bottle. This man couldn't save his own life from his dog with a baseball bat.

What usually happens when a country's government resigns as a result of mass protests triggered by poverty, corruption and a lack of social justice? An opposition party wins the elections.
While the second phase of this scenario is likely (though not certain) to happen in Bulgaria, few are excited by the prospect.
A great number of Bulgarians believe that the main goal of both the ruling center-right GERB, whose government stepped down last week, and the major oppositional Bulgarian Socialist Party, is to serve the oligarchs.
Yeah, Tony Rees - what we REALLY need here is yet another half-baked populist party appealing to the uneducated and run by the ill-informed. Luckily most Bulgarians have too much political nous to vote for a would-be demagogue like the odious Farage and his comic-reading supporters....
***One democratic socialist paradigm is the PdL (Die Linke) in Germany, with strong support in a number of German states goo.gl/WGytf
***Another is the parti de gauche in France http://goo.gl/Bmvcb
***A third is Syriza in Greece goo.gl/8NjNo
What Bulgaria needs first is a crusading press that is undaunted by political or corrupt "pressure" A newspaper that is truly free, courageous and crusading would stem the power of those unelected currently wielding influence over government and authorities, it would expose corruption and bring down individuals and institutions that seem, at the moment, to be untouchable. What is more is that all this could be achieved without an election. Pie in the sky maybe but life is not worth living without dreams.
Yeah right, PP - unfortunately EVERY country needs this paragon of press perfection that you're dreaming of....
I'm sure if Seedy and PP had their way, then a Bulgarian version of the Daily Mail would be mandatory reading for all Bulgarian citizens.
Nah - but maybe "The Thoughts of Chairman Chuski" could replace "Bai Ganyo" as the epitomel of sophistication and clear thinking....
I agree Seedy, hopefully this would provide you with what you alcoholics call ''a moment of clarity''.
As your postings suggest you are in a permanently drunken stupor, and as a fully paid up member of the Daily Mail little Englander brigade, I very much doubt you would notice any difference.
Chokey, I doubt you would recognise a Little Englander if he were to turn up on your doorstep complete with sola topee and gun-boat. However, please feel free to expose your ignorance of, and to, the world....
Seedy, I'm sure everybody recognizes your sort - Daily Mail tucked under your tattooed arm, warm beer perched on your grotesque beer belly, and a cheap ''fag'' poking out of your rotund sweaty pink face. Oh and a penchant for loudly hectoring ''bloody foreigners'' at every opportunity.
Chunky - sorry, the only part of your description which hit the mark is the bit about the beer-belly. However, I'd rather have a fat midriff like mine than a fat head like yours...
In response to peterperfect's comment, I believe the Internet and social media are already changing things faster than the press could.

Siebolts, Udo (2011) New aspects into pathophysiology and molecular diagnostics of myeloproliferative neoplasms. PhD thesis, Universität zu Köln.
| PDF - Accepted Version Download (47Mb) | Preview |
The Philadelphia chromosome negative myeloproliferative neoplasms (MPN) comprise diverse entities of hematopoetic stem cell disorders with hematopoetic stem cell transplantation as the only curative therapeutic option. A collective finding of some subgroups is the activating point mutation of JAK2 p.V617F, important for diagnosis and detection of minimal residual disease (MRD) but a rather late event in the course of MPN. In this study, we first focused on characteristics of the neoplastic peripheral blood CD34- positive stem cell fraction. Thus, we could reveal a characteristic aberrant morphology and phenotype, and performing cDNA- array analysis most notably an imbalance of DNA- dependent protein kinase subunits which may contribute to the accumulation of chromosomal aberrations, accumulation of hematopoetic cell, and prolongation of CD34- positive peripheral blood stem cells life span (Wickenhauser, Perez, et al. 2003; Siebolts, Breuhahn, et al. 2009). Moreover, there is evidence of a distinct, non-neoplastic, CD34- positive peripheral blood stem cell population which may offer perspectives in treatment of the diseases (Siebolts, Ates, et al. 2005). The CD34- positive stem cell fraction, as the underlying source of the malignancy, is of course of particular importance, not only for understanding of the pathophysiological process but also for understanding of relapse and regenerative incidents. Performing fluorescence in situ hybridization on bone marrow biopsies, we found an almost complete chimerism following stem cell transplantation concerning the differentiated hematopoesis, whereas CD34- positive cells remained of recipient origin to a higher proportion (Thiele, Varus, et al. 2007; Siebolts, Thiele, et al. 2008). Since hematopoetic stem cell transplantation, especially after invention of reduced intensity conditioning (RIC) is a feasible curative option for an increasing number of MPN patients, reliable detection of the specific JAK2 p.V617F mutation as a sign of minimal residual disease (MRD) becomes more and more important. Therefore, we created in combination of a robust QPCR with a wild- type blocking PCR, a powerful tool for reliable detection of MRD in these patients (Siebolts, Lange, et al. 2010). Future prospects of MPN research will also focus on the newly-discovered field of non-coding RNA. Therefore, we tested the possibility to perform further retrospective analysis on easily accessible paraffin embedded formalin fixed tissue, and could show for the first time that extraction of sufficient amount of miRNA, with subsequent expression analysis is possible even after decalcification and also after decades (Siebolts, Varnholt, et al. 2009).

Not being melodramatic
9 comments:
Dear Siggi,
Julien just called to say there is a two hour delay due to technical problems with the trains. Still, he's on his way and didn't have to watch me mope the day away. I decided to gift myself one day to mope and, as of tomorrow, I am switching to stiff-upper-lip mode.
Giui and Sara were as calm and collected as was Julien. I was the only one who was making a bit of a drama over "it's the end of an era". Fortunately, they both are saying it seems so odd not to have Julien around this evening.
One Woman, was a fantastic was of expressing what we do try and give our children. I am going to take it as a motto for future talks with my son.
Maggie, how about a box of Kleenex. People here are not much on carrying their emotions on their cuffs. Unlike me, who has strong Irish blood coursing through my veins.A parent-child milestone of mixed feelings indeed. You must be proud that he's doing well and is also studying in his own country so he's not that far away. I love 'roots and wings' too. The box of tissues and a lovely daughter and husband to cuddle for comfort at times like this and before you know it the years have flown.

A National Research Council report released this month says that by 2020, less than 2 percent of the United States' total carbon emissions would be offset by wind energy development. Rick Webb, a senior scientist at UVA's Department of Environmental Sciences, contributed to the report. He thinks wind energy's negative impact may far outweigh its negligible benefits.
Environmental science prof Rick Webb says wind may not be the answer to global warming woes. |
C-VILLE: How did you get involved in the wind energy issue?
Rick Webb: My involvement began in 2005, when I became concerned about the industrial scale of wind energy development as it was proposed on mountain ridges in the area. Previously, I would've thought that wind energy was a matter of benefits without any downsides, before I realized the size of the turbines, which can range from 400′ to 450′ tall. I also realized that the number of turbines that would have to be built to make any difference at all in terms of electricity supply is just extremely large. For example, Mount Storm Power Plant would require about 9,000 turbines. So you're talking about 1,000 miles of turbines just to replace this one power plant.
What does that sort of development mean, beyond the obvious aesthetic consequences?
In my point of view, we're looking at sacrificing our natural landscape for very little benefit. You have to clear the landscape —three to five acres of clearing per turbine. Deforestation has an ecological impact on wildlife that require continuous forest to survive. Birds and bats are also killed by flying into turbine blades. The nearest wind project to Virginia, the Mountaineer Project in West Virginia, came online in 2004. It's 44 turbines, over five miles long. The range of estimates is that 2,000-4,000 bats were killed in a six-week period.
So is there a future for wind energy anywhere in Virginia?
My basic position is that rigorous environmental assessment needs to be performed prior to any wind development. That being said, it does seem to me that development far offshore could have less of an impact. By far, the most wind resources that would be considered Virginia's are offshore, but it is much more expensive to develop, and given the subsidies that are basically financing these projects—something like 55-65 percent of the projects are covered by tax incentives and grants—that's where the money is. That's why there's this rush to develop wind.

Excellent discussion. I'd suggest PPMC members look at the well-established and (incredibly) detailed commit log message standards our own Apache Subversion project uses: http://subversion.apache.org/docs/community-guide/conventions.html#crediting It might be useful if a couple of folks review those guidelines, pick a couple that seem pertinent, and propose them for this project to adopt. As you might expect, as a project that builds a source code tracker, the Subversion project is pretty detailed about how they track commit logs. 8-) In general, providing credit like this in a simple way that's visible to the active developers on the project (wherever that is) is definitely important. There are both some contributors who simply like to get the credit; it also allows the existing committers to clearly see what new contributors are doing over time, allowing the community to better see who to consider for future committer votes. Note: in general, giving credit is a good thing, especially to new submitters. Making people "owners" or "leaders" of specific modules in the larger sense is... not necessarily a good thing; in terms of ownership, we encourage the community as a whole to own the project. - shane | |

SAN DIEGO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 12/11/12 -- Aegis Therapeutics LLC announced today that it has been awarded U.S. Patent No. 8,329,220 providing proprietary compositions for absorption-enhancing self-assembling aqueous hydrogels useful for extended release, transdermal, or transmucosal absorption enhancement for peptide and small molecule drug delivery applications. The Aegis Hydrogels serve simultaneously as both delivery vehicle and absorption enhancer. In dermal applications, these hydrogels immediately absorb into the skin with no sense of any residue remaining. In sustained release depot applications, unlike current depot matrices which require large gauge needles for delivery resulting in significant and unnecessary patient discomfort, the thixotropic nature of these gels allows liquid-like flow through fine-gauge needles (28 gauge or 31 gauge) with resumption of the stable gel form immediately upon exiting the needle.
The company is seeking licensees for prescription and OTC applications of the Aegis Hydrogels.
About Aegis Therapeutics
Aegis Therapeutics LLC is a drug delivery technology company commercializing its patented drug delivery and drug formulation technologies through product-specific licenses. Our Intravail® drug delivery technology enables the non-invasive delivery of a broad range of protein, peptide and non-peptide drugs that can currently only be administered by injection, via the oral, buccal, and intranasal administration routes, and with high bioavailability. Our ProTek® excipients stabilize, prevent aggregation, and reduce unwanted immunogenicity of protein and peptide therapeutics while avoiding the oxidative damage caused by polysorbate surfactants currently found in most protein injectable drugs.

After Saddam > Article
A suicide bomber blew himself up outside a US army compound just north of Baghdad in the second such attack in Iraq yesterday, the US military said.
Two soldiers were lightly injured in the attack.
A man acting suspiciously walked toward the gates of the base in Husseiniya, 25 kilometres north-east of Baghdad, said Major Josslyn Aberle, a US military spokeswoman in Tikrit.
When military police guarding the gate opened fire, he activated an explosive device and blew himself up. There were no US casualties or damage, she said.
"A couple of soldiers were looked at, they were treated on the spot and they returned to their duties," she said.
Hours earlier, a suicide bomber blew up a car packed with explosives at the gates of a military barracks in Talafar, injuring 41 American troops and six Iraqi civilians. Talafar is 50 kilometres west of the northern city of Mosul.

I had a hard blow to my lower lip and chin area 1 week ago. My mouth was cut from the inside by my teeth. It seems to be healing, but there is a hard lump where the blow was at. Any suggestions on what this is or how to make it go away?\
There is a Lump On my Chin Area From A Hard Blow, What Could it Be?
Doctor Answers 1
There could be several reasons why you have this bump. You may have bruised the area and that could be a possible hematoma. You may have disrupted the jaw bone. A set of x-rays would not be a bad idea and might be necessary to determine why you have the bump. A visit to your general doctor might also be an option. Good Luck!
