My Mission: A Second Sock
The wonderful Stella knit me a Drunken Bee with BMFA Socks That Rock in "Pond Scum" (isn't that a great name?) This is a much more accurate representation of the true color of Pond Scum. I loved this pattern as soon as I saw it on domesticrafts earlier this summer.
Isn't it just gorgeous? *gush* I can't wait to start in on the second one! Speaking of which, I seem to have lost every US 1 circular needle and DPN I've ever owned (no small number). I'll cast on for #2 as soon as I
buy find the requisite needles!
As if this beauty weren't enough, Stella also sent along a coveted misocrafty bag and some SOAK*!
Thanks so much, Stella!!
*When I opened this package, it occurred to me that SOAK packets look a lot like GU energy gel. I will be sure to keep the SOAK in the laundry room and the GU in the kitchen…
24 comments so far
Gorgeous sock! Stella did awesome. You'll have fun knitting that second one. Enjoy your gifts!
That pattern is really great isn't it? What a lovely sock, made extra-special with the bag – nice!
Gorgeous pattern and nice color! Pond scum is a great name. Goes to show that scum can be pretty too. ;)
what a gorgeous sock and pattern! definitely had to throw that into my queue.
WOW – gorgeous sock!! You'll have fun knitting the second one.
yes – keep them very far apart!!! :) beautiful sock – that color is amazing!
That is such a wonderful sock–the pattern, the color–I love it! I find it intersting that this STR Pond Scum really looks closer to a solid than many of the other almost solid colorways (which I totally prefer).
I had so much fun knitting this for you, Elinor. I'm so glad you like it! The pattern's a lot simpler than it looks — I think you'll have a blast knitting up the mate.
LOVING the new site! Bravo! And that sock. Wow. I think I may actually have to take up this sock nonsense.
No GU here. But oh my gosh, I could just imagine myself screwing up and washing my hand knits in it! EWWWWW
I love the sock. I love the color name! Can't wait to see a completed pair! Go team!
Those socks are gorgeous! Color…pattern…and the knitting! You really knit fabulous socks. Wish I could!
Luck duck! I love those little pouches! the sock looks to be a perfect fit too!
Beautiful sock! And Soak does look like Gu! It would be a misfortune to mix them up :) (I love Gu. I still have it sometimes even though I can't really run anymore)
I really like soak, it smells fantastic; but, I would imagine it would not taste very good at all! Gorgeous sock, I love all the Drunken Bee love happening in blogland right now!
Such a pretty version of the sock! even if it is called pond scum ;)
I love the clever color names — strange as it sounds, I'm sure we all knew exactly the color of that sock before the photo!
That is going to be a great pair of socks! I love the color!
What a fabulous sock, and the color is such a gorgeous green.
Oooh, you got the pond scum! I've been eyeing the Drunken Bees pattern, too…
I love that name! The sock looks fantastic! I've unfortunately lost my small sock needles to the cats… they like to chew the cords and you know you just can't do the magic loop when the cords have snags all in them.
Having that delightful color on your needles is going to make picking up those socks a joy every time! What a fabulous pattern for you.

The relationship between ferrous scrap prices and service center orders and inventories isnt always the first factor market participants consider when assessing steel sales, but recent pricing activity has highlighted the important role that it plays.
As scrap prices fell in September and early October, distributors kept a close eye on raw material negotiations, looking for signs of how steel prices and overall steel demand could be affected.
During that period, steel prices did not rise, despite some manufacturer statements that hikes were on the way, and steel shipments fell in both August and September.
But then, amidst a market consensus that scrap prices had bottomed out in October, NLMK USA, Nucor Corp. and AK Steel Corp. increased prices mid-month for all sheet products by $40 per ton. Those decisions to raise prices followed an apparently leading move by U.S. Steel.
The moves immediately prompted some ordering, mill and distributor sources said.
No one can believe it, one Midwest service center source said. Everybody were buying for, they know the price is going up so theyre trying to beat the price.
But some buyers werent able to get in and place orders ahead of the hike, a mill source said.

Thanks, Chrissy!
Oh, we did get some good news today; DH came home and told me he's been moved to a new team at work with more responsibilities, so that means he'll be promoted up to the next pay scale soon. He's "chuffed" about it as they say here! (I seem to be using the happy face smiley a lot lately instead of saying LOL.....Kate!)
Hi! Suja, I remember my bff's husband (Indian) wanted to shave their daughters heads too...she didn't go for it and both seem to have great hair.
Chrissy, hopefully Bobbie works things out. And if nothing else and it was her mistake, I bet that she doesn't make it again. It is strange that nobody called her though.
Kate that is great that you guys had a good time seeing Joey!
Bridget, hope that it's not a sign of the winter that kids will be out sick. Too bad our gov sucks. Still have to go find myself a recall petition to sign.
PSA for the day....do not stick q-tips in your ears. DH was complaining of an ear ache so i forced him to go to urgent care on Saturday after two days of pain. turns out the dope didn't realize he left the head of a q-tip in there and it was decently far down...too much for tweezers so they had to flush it out and it took a good amount of solution for that.
otherwise thanksgiving went well and all three dogs got along ok and we watched a lot of movies...easiest thing to do while still watching Molly the dog..she's now 10 weeks old so still needs constant supervision. I will be very happy once she can be home and not be supervised all the time (when we are there...when not, crate it will be for a long while). And when she stops biting....she is pretty good most of the day but like 2-3 times a day gets a bug up her behind and gets super fiesty, wants to bite and pounce Cosmo.
Last edited by Cosmosmom; 11-28-2011 at 04:27 PM.
Poor Bobbie! I hope just as few days of demonstating she can do the job will make the first offense completely forgettable.
Bridget, you are so sweet to consider the families' situations even above your own. I'm gonna you just for that. Can you set up any kind of a "sick care" service on days like today so families can have that as an alternative and you'd get paid for it?
Molly, I'll meditate today in yoga for you and send you my best intentions from the west.
Erin, perhaps you could just be up front with your current boss about the possible move you'd make with your DH, and let her decide. She might just think you're worth the gamble. It might even entice her to sweeten the deal if she thinks it'd prevent you from moving away at all. As for the other old boss, I suppose I would just wait to see if any of her offers come to pass before seriously making a decision based on the possibility of a newly-created position for you. You are so personable, and apparently efficient, and that must be worth its weight in gold around your companies. No wonder you're valued!
Ash, I'd be "well-chuffed" if I were your DH. Now if only you'd start feeling better.
DH & I always feel a little more grateful for each other when the subject of her (or my sister) comes up.
I use Q tips for cleaning ear folds, and any wax that's sitting right at the opening of the ear canal, but don't actually stick it in. I think you'd have to go quite a ways to do actual damage, but why take chances?
What does 'chuffed' mean, exactly?
The puppy stage can last 2 years. I'll never adopt a puppy again.
My audiology professor gave us lecture notes printed off from powerpoint and one series of slides was graphic photographs of ear damage/diseases. One was labeled "too much q-tip." Suffice it to say I'm convinced of why q-tips and ear canals should not be friends. I'll have to dig that up so I can share - it's in a box somewhere with all my old lecture notes.
Myles, that is so sad about your friend and her baby. My heart just breaks for all of them. I hope they can find some balance for all of them to get what they need.
It's been a rough day emotionally. Also my first day with my old eval partner who is filling in for my new partner who is now out on disability. Nice to work with P again as I missed her. We had a rough day between a really depressing case this morning, the computers not working, and trying to find a new "rhythm" to work together again. For all that, I left in a more positive mental state than I have in years despite the fact that DH locked the keys in the car, was late to pick me up, and I had to cancel my PT appointment. P is just so calm and easygoing and makes me laugh - despite a hard day I'm happier at the end of the day. I miss her.
Still no AF and my boobs are seriously sore - like I had to take my bra off because it was painful to wear sore. Also feeling a little shaky. I'm probably getting sick. I told DH I need to go buy more tests, and since he will NEVER understand ovulation and the menstrual cycle, and I told him when he came back it was likely too late in the cycle, he's now asking about my secret relations with "Jermaine." He's kidding. Mostly.

It's so nice when you have a coworker that can make the more difficult days still end on a positive note. My promise to myself for the New Year is to try and get myself in that position as well. I like my boss, but he is a bit negative and not only is it taxing, but I get sucked into it too easily. I've found myself ignoring the phone/emails and that's not me.
I don't know how it would play out, but I hope somehow you can get to be back with your partner on a more permanent basis. I'm so sorry about your difficult case
I forgot to update about Bobbie's job...she double checked her schedule and she was indeed marked to be off on Saturday. The manager that called her wasn't on today and Bobbie didn't feel like bringing it up with any of the other managers. Apparently, any of them (and there seems to be a lot of them) can call her and witch her out whenever they feel like it and there's not really any support for the 'lowly' workers such as herself. She's just going to overlook this and hope nothing like it happens again. Needless to say, I'm worried for her and I'd like for her to find another job asap.
On the bright side, in late January she'll be living in Dryden, which is a good 40-50 miles away. I'm going to tell her flat out that that's too far to drive for a minimum wage job and we won't be able to keep up on the car repairs for her if she chooses to drive that far. She's already talked about applying for jobs near her college or perhaps working as a work study student. I'm going to strongly encourage her to do so.
Also, P called my cell phone and left me a voice mail letting me know that the kid whose file I brought home to work on tonight, that I have to HAND-WRITE the review of data for tomorrow's meeting since the parents never brought the birth certificate so the kid isn't in our computer system, cancelled their appointment tomorrow. She wanted to be sure I didn't do all that work at home only to find out the child cancelled. Made my evening that she called to tell me that.

Except that would be mean.
You'll have to excuse me. I'm just on an acronym high today. I have ALWAYS wanted to name a system I design and today my wish came true. We are in the process of developing a more graphical web-based front end to an application that users type codes into a command-line. The system begins with "T" (full name of which I shouldn't share), but the name I camed up with is "T.I.G.E.R." which stands for "T"-Interfaced GUI-Enhanced Relay. People are really happy with the name. If I never have another child, I'll still feel like I gave birth to something else.
Mandy, I'm really sorry about your rough day. I'm truly hoping this is just a downcycle, and things will be on the upswing soon.
Chrissy, Bobbie only has to work there another month? I wouldn't even worry about it, then. I think she can suck it up, get as many hours as she can and just take home those paychecks for the next few weeks. I imagine that kind of work will only make her more appreciative of her college education while she's getting it.

Mandy, I think that thoughtful phone call from your coworker was very sweet.
My two selves are having this conversation:
Pregnant me: "You should have a bag of gummy worms for dinner."
Rational me: "Um, gross?! We don't even have any gummy worms. I think the last time I ate gummy-anything I was 8 years old."
Pregnant me: "Gummy worms come in lots of delicious flavors. Want them."
Rational me: "How about some natural licorice? We have some in the pantry, I think. I wouldn't even know where to get gummy worms."
Pregnant me: "I bet your DH would know where to get gummy worms."
Rational me: "I'm not involving DH in this, he'll just take your side. You can have a Dr. Sears Chewy Vitamin and that's my last offer."
Pregnant me: "Need gummy worms."
Next thing I know pregnant self has rational self trying to find an online recipe for homemade gummy worms....
ETA: I reread that and needed to clarify. And I don't think you've said anything mean, it just reminded me of the shirt. I added that smiley and lol non-ironically, btw, actually without thinking about it.
...you're right, tone is really difficult to convey.

Dbf plays online poker and about a year ago he was reading to me something he'd typed to a player who had just lost a hand or whatever and he read, "Lots of luck". I looked over at his screen and said, "You know LOL stands for, Laugh out loud, right?"
He was arguing with me! And then it dawned on him that some players seemed offended when he wrote that. However, it was months before he truly believed me that it means laugh out loud to everyone and not that to some and lots of luck to others. He'd be like, "Are you sure?"
Um, yes. I am sure.
My brother and I still say lol to eachother when wishing luck to one another after that story. We give him **** for it all the time and it never get old!

Oh, and I forgot to tell y'all that Savana had a wonderful day at school. She joyfully shared every detail. When I picked her up her teacher said she is showing new confidence in the routine and is like a little sponge listening really well and eager to learn. Yay Savana!!
I also wanted to say that I have been having some awesome times with Kai. Savana is pretty demanding of my attention and also the one in charge when her and Kai play. He's getting some time to shine and I love that.
It's like that joke I see circulating of the older woman who broke the news of a family member's dead via text. She said "Frank passed away. LOL" The receiver of the text says "Why are you laughing?" and the woman says "Oh! I thought it meant Lots Of Love!"
I'm so glad Savana had a good day, Bridget.
Mandy, how sweet of the family to say they wouldn't be there.
Molly...did I miss the announcement? Congrats! Eat those gummy worms!
Chrissy, when you say Bobbie is living in Dryden in a month, what do you mean? I think I missed something else....
And LOL about your LOL story!
I used to avoid emoticons, but somehow I fell prey to them and now I'm addicted. Can't help myself.
Oh, and DH and I went to Target and bought a new toaster oven and a package of pregnancy tests. How is that for random? Not sure if I'll test tomorrow am but I will within the next few days if AF stays away.

Me (40) DH (47) & furbabies * m/c 7/08 4/12 11/12
Okay, internet finally came back on!
DH went to watch Monday Night Football at one of his friend's house. His friend named Ray Ray which always reminds me of an interlude on Kanye West's first CD (before he went extra loony) where they do the workout song and the lady is talking about all the things she got because of her new body. The last part is "and I ain't got to deal with Ray Ray broke a$$ no more." That always cracks me up and everytime DH mentions Ray Ray I think of that interlude and giggle. DH gets kind of peeved about my giggling since he always thinks I am laughing at him (I do laugh at him a lot but, shhhh, don't tell him that!). I like Ray Ray alright though. He is not particularly a horrible loser like most of DH's friends. He has a job and a wife and doesn't drink to excess. DH doesn't know his last name though so to me Ray Ray is not really a friend. All that to say there are times when I don't mind that DH has gotten into football when he never used to like sports at all. His non-liking of sports was one of the main things that actually made him more attractive since I cannot stand men who are rabid sports fans.
Elle has been in a baby/whiny phase for the past few days, since around Tuesday last week. She keeps whine/talking everything like she does not know how to speak correctly or something and it is really getting ridiculous. I hope she stops it soon.
Molly, your conversation with rational/PG you is pretty hilarious. I will be bad and agree with Chrissy to get some gummy worms. I eat whatever I want when I'm PG, especially in the first trimester since I get so ill that I usually lose weight. With Elle I lost 18 lbs in the first trimester with Ky I lost 15. That makes me think I need to get PG again to lose weight LOL!
Along the lines of losing weight--I'm curious if any of you know about dieticians-like if I asked my primary care doctor to refer me to one would the dietician charge me or does the insurance pay for it? I really feel like I need help with a sensible diet. Last time I lost weight it was with the help of this guy who told me not to eat any carbs-It worked great for a while but after I lost the weight I went right back to carbs and I've almost gained it all back. I feel like an elimination diet like that is too extreme.
I have a myriad of problems to go over with my primary care doctor when I see her on Thursday. I'm not looking forward to it, but I'm looking forward to feeling better.

Meditate Before You Medicate
By Nancy Lonsdorf, MD
My 8-year-old son has just been diagnosed with ADHD. I'd like to keep him off medication if I can, but I want him to succeed in school. What kind of natural approaches are there?
First of all, you are not alone. One of the most common and difficult challenges facing parents and kids today, ADHD affects nearly one in 10 school-aged children. Its symptoms—inattentiveness, hyperactivity, and impulsive behavior—impair school and social performance, often causing overwhelmed teachers to pressure parents to put their children on drugs. But is trading better grades now for potential long-term side-effects really in your child's best interests?
Ironically, a natural approach to this very modern problem exists in the ancient healing practice of ayurveda. From herbal formulas to lifestyle and diet, ayurveda offers a range of approaches aimed at correcting the imbalance underlying the condition. While modern theories point to genetically-based chemical imbalances in the brain, ayurveda describes an imbalance in vata dosha, the mind-body principle that governs movement and mental activity. When it falls out of balance, the flow of electrical impulses in the brain become disturbed, which interferes with focus and behavioral control. While this imbalance may indeed involve a genetic component, ayurveda stresses that our lifestyle plays a crucial role in how our genes get expressed. To treat ADHD, ayurveda advises adopting specific dietary and lifestyle changes to balance vata.
One such approach—meditation—has attracted considerable media attention of late. But how, you ask, can your son possibly sit still long enough to meditate? Actually, a recent pilot study conducted on ADHD-diagnosed children who were instructed in Maharishi's Transcendental Meditation ™ program yielded some surprising results. Conducted at Chelsea Academy in Washington, DC, by Sarina Grosswald, EdD and William Stixrud, PhD, the study found a 45 to 50 percent reduction in stress, anxiety, and depression after practicing the TM technique for just 10 minutes twice a day—and memory, concentration, and organizing skills improved as well.
One of the participants, 11-year-old Chana believes TM makes her less impulsive. "I'm starting to think before I talk to my friends," she says. And Will, also 11, says, "It's amazing how easy it is, and yet it does so much for you."
Creating a calming environment around your son can go a long way toward settling him down. Limit TV and video games. The combination of flickering screen light, mental excitation, and electromagnetic radiation in both activities can create a huge disturbance in vata. Instead, channel your child's energy into sports, free play outdoors, playing a musical instrument, or making art projects. Turn off the TV and computer at least an hour before bedtime, which should be no later than 8:30.
You can effectively calm vata dosha—which by nature is impulsive and irregular—by keeping to a regular daily rou...

Every vehicle at the Nissan South dealership was damaged, according to store officials.Some vehicles had their windows broken, while others were had numerous dents from the golf ball-sized hail.

Sales manager Chris White said that the damage totaled nearly $500,000.White said that the dealership would offer customers a deal -- $100 a ding -- on the vehicles impacted by the hail.

Modern French Bistro Style: 19 Chalkboards in the Kitchen
It didn't take long to round up 19 examples of chalkboard walls (and cabinets...and refrigerators...). What is a simple, humble, utilitarian accessory in so many European restaurants has become a trendy design element in American kitchens. However, just because they're everywhere doesn't mean they aren't cute.
Our number one concern whenever we see chalkboards in the kitchen is: What happens to the dust? Obviously it's no more insidious than flying flour, but somehow it seems ickier. Anyone with a chalkboard like to share the cleanup details?

In France I've not seen a chalkboard WALL, but definitely chalkboards are an essential item for the daily offerings. Usually they are fixed on an easel (spelling? the item an artist would rest their canvas on) and you have to have a look at it yourself, but i've been in some places that have a roving board on wheels that the host/ess will roll over to your table for a better look - though on one memorable occasion the wheels were not rolling well so madam had to haul the board over to every table!

This will probably contain typos and be quite a messy post. I apologize.
Hi you brave moms,
My sister (20) is currently in intensive care. She is connected to breathing machines and a lot of other machines too.
I will try to lay this out for you as clearly as possible:
She has been suffering for the last 3 days but expert doctor said it's probably nothing. Today my mother noticed yellow in her eyes, called me to see if she was imagining and I saw it. This was 3:30PM. She almost did not eat for the 2 days and have been suffering pains, and throwed up too. Please, I am not looking for future advice or condolences, I need a better picture of where our chances stand. I know this is not official advisory forum but any piece of info can be useful.
Anyway, husband took her to hospital after I researched on it. It was around 5:30 pm.
I think they got her in c-surgey at 19:45 or 20:45.
21:30 they come out of the room, the baby, weight 2.7 kilos is on life support. They tell us she is going to be okay.
20 minutes later they tell us she is on life support, and that serious damage has been done to the liver and kidneys.
An hour later one of the doctors came out, said that she is "no longer in life danger, but still on life support, and we don't know what will happen with kidneys and liver, things haven't worsened though".
It is now 3:32 AM, I'm at the hospital, and because I will not trust a doctor again in my life, I need information. Dad and mom are divorced and she is their favorite child. Rightly so. Pure angel. So kind. I need to be as analytical and as strategical as possible on the next few days, I'm not looking for re-assurance, just an action plan of what I should in case this or that unfolds.
My sister has a small body, suffers anemia. Had a hard time conceiving. First pregnency. Baby no longer on life support but is being watched.
Any one know what is the mortality rate of mothers that got to the LIFE SUPPORT section?
What are the chances of severe long term complications given she is on life support?
What we should look for in the next few days?
What questions should I ask doctors
Given that she is no longer in life danger, what are the changes she will have really severe issues like veggie state, blindness or incapability?
How fast or slow should her body progress.
Give me anything. Whether good or bad. I need tonnage expectations and actions for me and the family.

When Liz and I began talking about new counter tops, we had to think about either using our existing kitchen faucet or getting a new one. The faucet we have now requires three holes in the counter (sprayer, spout and handle). In addition, there's a fourth hole in the counter for the air gap for the dishwasher drain, which I do not think we'll need with the new counter top. Many newer kitchen faucets only need one hole for everything. Since you can't "undrill" a hole in granite/quartz, we need to decide which way to go. We are leaning toward a brand new, single hole faucet.
While doing some research, I have found that there are so many features (touch on/off, pull down sprayers, etc) that it can be confusing. I also don't want to buy a gimmick that may not be a functional as the faucet company's literature would lead one to believe.
So, if you are knowledge on this topic, can you provide any insights?

North American Edition2014-09-30 10:26 UTC
The dollar rebounded from Asian session weakness amid a post-Eurozone inflation data rout in EUR-USD, while the month-end batch of Japanese data was also conducive of USD-JPY gains. The euro took a hit on news that Eurozone HICP ebbed back to 0.3% y/y from 0.4% in the flash September estimate despite the uptick in the Spanish headline rate and unchanged German numbers of yesterday. Eurozone core inflation also dipped to 0.7% y/y from 0.9% y/y. EUR-USD ... Read More ►

AUD-USD and NZD-USD led the way, with the former rebound from yesterday's nine-month low at 0.8684 to a high today of 0.8767. Dollar losses against the yen were more modest, with USD-JPY dipping to a low of 109.18 before recovering to the 109.50 area, leaving yesterday's low at 109.12 untroubled.

Our strategy
Improve life in the country's most isolated, vulnerable regions by supporting education and entrepreneurship, and enhancing the leadership skills of women and youth.
The context
India's northern regions are home to some of the poorest and neglected communities in the country. Health, education and income levels are among the lowest in India's two prime tea-growing regions — Darjeeling and Assam — and in Kashmir. Both areas have long struggled with conflict and are fragmented by social and political unrest that leave the economy faltering.
Our work
- Women & Gender: Support the literacy of female tea workers and improve graduation rates for their children
- Agriculture & Food: Providing training and links to markets so spice farmers can make more from their crops
- Health: Bringing basic medical services and education about common diseases and maternal and child health to remote tea villages
- Economic opportunity: Connecting youth in Kashmir with technical training and incentives to start business ventures
- Children & Youth: Fostering conflict resolution skills and community engagement among young people in Kashmir

LONDON (Reuters) - HSBC
Europe's biggest bank said Flint will become chief executive on January 1 of RBWM, one of the bank's four global businesses. Previously known as personal financial services, RBWM has more than 50 million customers and made an operating profit of $4.3 billion last year, a fifth of the group.
Flint, 44, joined HSBC in 1989 and has worked in Hong Kong, Singapore, Indonesia, Thailand, India, Bahrain, the United States and Britain. He has been head of strategy and planning and chief of staff to the CEO since the start of this year.
Guilherme Lima, who joined two years ago from McKinsey as group head of strategy, will take Flint's role.
Stuart Gulliver, group chief executive, is restructuring HSBC to cut costs and axe unprofitable areas to lift returns, which has seen several changes in senior management.
Gulliver said Thurston, 59, had wanted to retire two years ago but stayed on to manage RBWM during the reorganization, which aimed to make it more of a global business.
Thurston joined HSBC in 1975 and has run its retail banking in Hong Kong and Asia-Pacific and held top roles for Mexico, Latin America and UK retail banking.

Japan is a beautiful country with many different and unique sites that a visitor is bound to encounter. When traveling to Japan, many intriguing objects are seen which represent the diversity of the nation and the many regions that are found in the country. It is important to carry some of these fantastic gifts as souvenirs as they carry many memories that a traveler may want to remember about the country. Items such as the kimono which is a traditional garment; T-shaped and straight lined which is worn in such a way that the hem falls over the ankles is an important souvenir. The garment is usually wrapped around the body and secured using a sash known as 'obi' in the Japanese language. The garment is commonly worn with traditional footwear such as geta and split toe socks.
A visitor to Japan can also bring back home items like the origami paper or Ukiyoe prints. Japan also offers a wide array of traditional tea pots and tea sets such as Macha which can be used in the brewing of green tea. These pots and sets come in varying sizes and shapes and carry a unique and elegant design. Most of them are decorated with scenes from Japanese village life or other Japanese characters. Lunch boxes which are usually separated to cater for the different food items that an individual may wish to carry are also available for use as souvenirs. They come in different ranges with choices for children available as well as other elegant designs. Japanese knives can also be another attractive souvenir to carry from the country as the trade of knife making has been perfected in Japan since the times of the samurai to date. These knives can come in the form of metal or ceramics.
A souvenir that one can only find in Japan is none other than that of fake food. Plastic display food, as it is also known, is intricately designed and crafted from skilled workers in the country that makes the food look more appetizing than the real thing! haha… Definitely a peculiar souvenir you can purchase in the country, I highly recommend you to visit Gifu to experience one of their fake food making workshops if you have time on your way from Tokyo to Kyoto. There's truly nothing better than crafting your own fake food, if I must say so myself.
So I hope this gives you an idea about what to expect when you make your voyage to the Land of the Rising Sun. I'm sure it will be an experience that you will never forget!

Quite a story unfolding in Taylor where a generous sixth grader was caught handing out money from a backpack. But it turns out the cash wasn't even hers to give away.
Taylor Police Chief Mary Sclabassi says she was surprised when the department got the call that said a student at the Sixth Grade Academy had $20,000 in her backpack. It was all in one hundred dollar bills.
Teresa Winnie is the assistant superintendent for Taylor Schools. "It was very, very unusual. Our students don't come to school with that much money, if any money at all," Winnie said.
It turns out the girl got the backpack full of money from her neighbor, another young girl who lives across the street and goes to a different school. It's not clear why she gave the girl the money or why the student brought it to her school.
Regardless, word got around and kids started asking the student for money and she then started giving it away. She reportedly gave as much as $500 to one student and a couple hundred dollars to some others.
The principal collected the cash and contacted Taylor police. The chief says she's just glad the situation was handled quickly.
Now the big question, why would someone have $20K stuffed in a backpack? Detectives are working to figure it out and are interviewing the student and her parents as well as the family of the child who gave her the money.

Via Pro Football Zone:
Texas A&M head coach Kevin Sumlin told reporters that quarterback Johnny Manziel will announce whether he's going to enter the NFL draft prior to the Aggies' bowl game.
"We haven't had that conversation," Sumlin said, via ESPN.com. "My job is to get him all the facts that we can get him. We'll have that discussion after the Missouri game, certainly during the bowl preparation. I'm sure the announcement will be made at that time."
Texas A&M's regular season will end on Nov. 30 and the earliest bowl game for an SEC team is Dec. 30. That means Manziel will have about 30 days to make his final decision.
I think Manziel could use another year of college ball, but I feel like he'll declare since he doesn't have much else to prove.

The Logitech Harmony Smart Control combines RF functionality and smartphone control in an affordable universal-remote package, but the complexity of the initial setup will burden some buyers.
The Audiovox IPD-UNVBT is physically firm, functionally flexible, and relatively inexpensive mounting option for entertaining rear seat passengers with the tablet that you already own.
