The Big One
Colorado's Largest Historic Earthquake: November 7, 1882 – Magnitude 6.6
On November 7, 1882 at about 6:30 p.m. local Denver time, a moderately strong earthquake shook much of Colorado and parts of southern Wyoming and northeastern Utah. The following quote from the Rocky Mountain News gives an indication of the shaking in Denver, 60 miles from the epicenter.
A general stampede was caused among the employees of The News office, especially in the editorial rooms.The editors and reporters were seated engaged at work when the floors of the editorial rooms began to tremble violently. …for a short time it appeared as if the building was about to tumble in.
The shaking was so great in Denver that it broke the electrical generators loose from their mounts and knocked out power. The earthquake was apparently felt as far east as Salina, Kansas and perhaps even in Plattsmouth, Nebraska (Rockwood, 1883; Oaks and Kirkham, 1986); and as far west as Salt Lake City.
The Colorado Front Range was rockin' and rollin' on November 7, 1882, when shock waves from a magnitude 6.6 earthquake (centered just west of Fort Collins) rumbled through thestate. Image and caption from US Geological Survey postcard.
An aftershock followed on the morning of November 8 (local time) and was felt in Denver, Boulder, Greeley, Laramie, and near Meeker. The main event was the largest earthquake to occur in the Colorado region during the historical period (1867-present) and has received considerable study by numerous researchers. Heck (1928) reported the felt area as 28,000 square kilometers. Hadsell (1968), as part of the investigation of the earthquakes at the Rocky Mountain Arsenal, conducted the first extensive evaluation of this event. Hadsell concluded the earthquake may have been centered north of Denver and east of Boulder, had maximum intensity of VII, and was ML 5.0 ± 0.6 based on the maximum observed intensity or ML 6.7 ± 0.6 based on its circular felt area of just under 1,200,000 square kilometers.
Dames and Moore (1981) studied this event as part of their seismic hazard evaluation for the Rocky Flats Plant. A summary of their investigation into the 1882 earthquake was described by McGuire et al (1982). They collected additional felt reports and reassessed others, particularly the account of landsliding and severe ground shaking in the Douglas Pass area that was discounted byHadsell (1968). Dames and Moore (1981) discredited the felt report from Salina, Kansas because the event was not reported in Salina's newspaper. They placed the earthquake epicenter in northwestern Colorado and suggested that the Dudley Gulch graben in the Piceance Creek Basin was a possible causative structure. A radiocarbon date on charcoal collected by the authors and W.R. Junge from unfaulted deposits that cover the fault and detailed studies of the Dudley Gulch graben by Eckert (1982) and Clift and Billington (1986) have since demonstrated that no surface rupture has occurred on the Dudley Gulch graben for over one thousand years.Dames and Moore (1981)estimated the felt area at 500,000 km2, assigned a maximum intensity of VIII to the event, and suggested the earthquake had a magnitude of around ML 6.5. A re-evaluation of existing felt reports, combined with newly discovered felt reports and confirmation of the felt report in Salina, Kansas byOaks and Kirkham (1986), led Kirkham and Rogers (1986) to somewhat different conclusions. Their isoseismal map is reproduced as Figure 1 below.
Kirkham and Rogers (1986) reported a felt area of 470,000 square kilometers and suggested the earthquake had a magnitude of ML 6.2 ± 0.3 based on regression equations that compare magnitude and felt area for Rocky Mountain earthquakes. The relatively large felt area, combined with only moderate reported intensities, suggested the earthquake occurred at a moderate hypocentral depth, perhaps about 20 km or more, similar to the 1984 Laramie Mountains, Wyoming earthquake.
An intensity map for the aftershock during the morning of November 8 (local time) that was felt in Denver, Boulder, Greeley, Laramie, and near Meeker is presented in Figure 2. No intensity ratings have been assigned to the known aftershock felt reports. In Laramie and Denver, however, the aftershock was reported to be nearly as strong as the main quake. If all known felt reports for the aftershock are included in a single felt area, it would encompass an area of about 61,000 square kilometers. This suggests the aftershock may have been around magnitude 4.5 to 5.0. An equally plausible interpretation could include the Denver, Boulder, Greeley, and Laramie felt reports in a smaller felt area and show the report from near Meeker as an isolated felt location.
The felt reports for the main shock do not define a consistent epicentral location. The felt area (Figure 1) for the aftershock on November 8th at 4:45 a.m. local time and 1) the large number of higher intensity reports in the Denver-Fort Collins-Laramie area, 2) the Salina, Kansas felt report, 3) the unusually shaped isoseismal maps of recent Denver area earthquakes (as demonstrated by the isoseismal maps contained in this report), and 4) the intensity patterns associated with the October 15, 1984 Laramie Mountains earthquake (Oaks et al 1985); Spence et al 1996) suggest an epicentral area somewhere in north-central Colorado, perhaps in the northern Front Range or southern Laramie Mountains. An epicentral location of 40 1/2°N and 105 1/2° W has been assigned to both the main quake and the aftershock byKirkham and Rogers (1986), but this location is probably accurate to only 1/2° latitude or longitude.
As part of a recent seismotectonic evaluation of the Rocky Flats facility conducted subsequent to the original release of Bulletin 46 (Kirkham and Rogers, 1985), G.A. Bollinger re-evaluated the 1882 earthquake (Risk Engineering, Inc., 1994, Appendix C). In general, he agreed with the epicentral location of Kirkham and Rogers (1986), but rather than selecting a specific location for the event, he assigned confidence levels of the earthquake having occurred in various areas defined by isoseismal or felt areas. Bollinger also estimated the magnitude of the earthquake using several methods. He suggested it had a moment magnitude of 6.44 and assigned a confidence of 80 percent that this value was correct.
Risk Engineering, Inc. (1994); p. 16, concluded that "Given currently-available data, the epicenter may have been anywhere in north-central or northwestern Colorado, southern Wyoming, or northeastern Utah, and the moment magnitude is estimated to have been in the range 5.0 ± 0.4 to 6.9 ± 0.2, with a best estimate of 6.4 ± 0.3".
The 1882 earthquake has also been investigated bySpence and others (1996), who compared it with the 1984 Laramie Mountains, Wyoming earthquake. They concluded the epicenter for the 1882 event was probably in the northern Front Range in the general vicinity of the location proposed by Kirkham and Rogers (1986), estimated the earthquake would have had a felt area of 870,000 square kilometers (Figure 2) based on the current population distribution, and suggested it had a magnitude of Mw 6.6 ± 0.6. They stated that earthquakes of this size may occur at shallow to mid-crustal depths throughout the Laramie Mountains and Front Range. We have elected to use the magnitude determined bySpence and others (1996).
A repeat of this 1882 earthquake today would cause a total of $2.8 billion* in economic loss from all sources, according to an analysis using FEMA's HAZUS program for estimating loss. To read the full report, click here.

I am really not sure what to say about this gorgeous new Spring/Summer 2012 look book by Loup Charmant. Designer Kee Edwards and her team have really entered a whole new dimension of organic beauty and trans-seasonal luxury. I have been writing about Loup Charmant since 2008, and this is hands down one of my favorite labels – one that I have been stocking my closet with and packing on travels during the past few years.
I can say that romanticism and vacation bliss are both a state of mind, made a bit easier by the soft organic cotton layering of these beautifully considered pieces. Stay tuned for my interview with Kee when I next visit NYC and her harbor front outpost.

Instead of this:
You could be using this:
Keeping foods fresh is always a big issue in my house, closing bags properly just doesn't happen all the time and cereal, chips, pretzels, etc. go to waste. I also had an issue with moths about 2 years ago, they basically invaded my pantry, anything that was sealed properly had to be thrown out, again more waste. When products go to waste money is basically being flushed down the toilet, plus I always feel guilty about throwing out food that would have lasted if sealed properly.
When I was offered the chance to review The Gripstic I immediately accepted, a chance to review a product that would help keep my items fresh, I was all for it. The Gripstic can be used to seal most bags including chip bags, cereal bags, coffee, frozen foods, flour and whatever else you can think of, you can also use it for non-food products if you like. The Gripstic is not bulky and it easily fits into a drawer, unlike those chip clips you see above that I always seem to have a problem finding a place to put them when they are not in use.
Frozen vegetables are my biggest pet peeve when it comes to sealing properly, I cannot tell you how many time I have opened my freezer and a bag of veggies falls out, spilling all over the floor. The first item I used The Gripstic for was a bag of frozen peas I had actually had opened the night before and needed to be sealed.
The Gripstic is easy to use and created a super tight seal.
While baking yesterday I used whole wheat pastry flour that had been sealed with the mini chip clip, not very well I may add, if the flour fell I am pretty sure the clip would have popped off and flour would have been all over my kitchen. So resealed the flour with The Gripstic after I finished using it, again it provided a perfect seal.
Abby is potty training so every time she goes on the potty she gets a sticker and a
bribe reward, yesterday's reward was potato chips. When not sealed properly potato chips go stale but not if you are using the Gripstic, the seal was perfect, just make sure you squeeze all the air out of the bag first.
Thanks to The Gripstic I have a feeling my bagged foods will be staying fresh a lot longer then they used to with a chip clip. The Gripstic also seems much sturdier, I have broken many chip clips from dropping them on the floor, The Gripstic doesn't seem as easily breakable.
Disclaimer: I was provided a sample of The Gripstic for my honest review. The giveaway item was also provided by The Gripstic. All opinions in this post are my own. I recieved no monetary compensation to write this review.
Now you can go out and buy a package of The Gripstic for a reasonably prices $3.99 or you can enter to win one today on my blog. Follow the instructions provided by Rafflecopter belowto enter. The giveaway will end on Monday 6/20/11 at midnight and I will announce the winner on Tuesday. Good luck all!!!

5 Things I Wish I Had Known Before Going Vegan
So, here's the deal. I am a vegan. There. I said it. I can't take it back now. Honestly, I'm afraid to tell people because of the backlash that comes with it at times…or maybe it's the perceived backlash? Seriously, when out to eat I'm that person that either whispers it to the kind server or tries to concoct something from the menu if I'm not at a vegan friendly restaurant.
I know I shouldn't be that way. I should be happy that I've made a choice to stop my consumption of animal products and purchase of goods that contain animal products or were tested on animals. I did, after all, make this decision for the animals and the planet. My reason for being vegan is completely ethical. But honestly, I have a deep-seated fear of judgement. I'm always afraid someone is going to say something negative (as can happen so very often on the interwebs) and I'll spend the rest of the night tearing myself apart because I could have said something different to appease all people. But I know that I can't.
So…. this is my official coming out blog!
My profession and passion is being a nutritionist. I do not force my lifestyle on my clients. I work with my clients and provide recommendations to them within the confines of their comfort area. No, I don't see it as a conflict. Even if I ate pork, I would not push a pork dish on a Muslim client. I take my approach to being a nutritionist and being a vegan in the same fashion. If I have a client that is interested in the lifestyle, I openly share with them anything they would like to know. I don't force them into being a vegan, though.
Since this is my coming out blog, I wanted to share with you 5 things I wish I had known before becoming a vegan.
1. Apparently, everyone is a nutritionist…who knew?!
MNow, remember I don't tell many people what I eat or how I live. But on the rare occasion that I do, the person on the receiving end puts on their nutritionist hat and goes to town. Let me be clear…this does not happen every single time. I'm not stereotyping here. But it does happen more than it should, in my opinion. As a nutritionist, I find this comical. I have people that have read various blogs on the keto or paleo diet telling me how I'm going to waste away to almost nothing because I don't eat meat. In case you were wondering, I won't. Because I have a fear of conflict, I typically smile, nod, and say something like, "Is that so?" My passive aggressive side hopes they find out that I am a nutritionist later on.
2. I would have to defend my protein intake to complete strangers
This could have been wrapped into number 1 but what fun would that be? If you ask your grandparents or great-grandparents what they used to eat, it would be some sort of meat with a lot of veggies. Over time, we've gone from protein being a side dish to now protein being the main attraction. I don't know when this started but it really needs to stop. We do not need gobs and gobs of protein to survive. Realistically, we need 0.8-1 gram of protein per kilogram of body weight…that's right…I said KG not LB. This would be the minimum. That works out to be about 10-15% of your daily caloric intake coming from protein. You can bump this up slightly…and some people with health conditions may need more. So, for the average bear, that's about 50-70 grams of protein daily. That is EASILY obtained through plants because…drum roll please…all plants have protein. Let me say it again….ALL PLANTS HAVE PROTEIN! If you take nothing else away from this blog, remember that last bit.
3. Maybe we have an unhealthy obsession with bacon around these parts.
I see a lot of back and forth on social media when it comes to vegan posts. There's the group of vegans defending their choices and the group of meat-eaters defending their choices. There's always one or two that throw this out, "But bacon." Yes…many think bacon is tasty. But I'm almost certain the speaker of those word's life does not revolve around bacon. I'm even more certain vegans don't miss bacon. When they see bacon, they see poor piggy's that died for the coveted bacon…and that makes us sad. So, "But bacon" is not a funny retort (cue to backlash I was afraid of).
4. I would spend more time on Google then I'd care to looking at make-up ingredients.
Being vegan is more than just not consuming animal products. It's about not purchasing products that were tested on animals or anything that contains animal products…this includes personal care products. I'm thankful that a few make-ups lines have come out with vegan products and specifically mark their products as vegan. This makes my painful trip to Ulta slightly easier. However, there are so many things that contain animal products or were tested on animals than I ever though before becoming vegan. Nail polish is a great example…who knew I would need to seek out specific nail polish brands. And mascara! It's gotten easier over time and I am ever so thankful to the blog Gods that have created a few easy blogs for me to peruse so that I can find vegan friendly personal care products.
5. It was sooooo much easier than I thought it would be.
I thought about being vegan for a good year before actually making the leap. And during that time, I built up what it would be like in my head. I thought temptation would be everywhere. The funny thing is, I'm not really tempted. It can be annoying having to read the ingredients of any "new" item I want to consume to ensure it doesn't disagree with my morals, but that's very short term. I went vegan overnight…cold-turkey. I decided I thought about it enough and it was time. And it's been a breeze since. It doesn't consume my thoughts. I don't spend every waking hour thinking about how I can convert my fellow man to veganism (I leave that to those who are not teetering on the edge of a meltdown). I don't stay up at night wondering what I'm going to eat tomorrow…how can one have brunch without bacon! The horror!!! It's honestly a breeze. I eat…a lot. I enjoy brunch. I have nachos. I eat pizza. I've even had "hamburger" and it was delightful! I don't eat those things all the time because it's not really healthy...meat or no meat. It's easy.
So…there it is. What did you learn after becoming vegan?

One of the remaining Strangers from the movie Dark City. Played by actor Nicholas Bell, I can't find any reference to his character outside the movie itself, and within the movie I can't discern which one is Mr. Rain so instead I'll share the choice tidbit of trivia with you that Nicholas Bell's last big role was Zordon in The Power Rangers Movie! No Shit! Based on the slim pickings left behind from the other, more predominant Strangers, however, it is safe to say that this character is primarily there to lend moral support to Mr. Hand by virtue of his mere presence perpetually two steps behind. File this one under Silent Big Badnasty #4, Bob.

R made in China. It was a 1948 Buick. It still worked, unlike my 2005 car. Amber and Leo were stranded in cyberspace until their laptop crashed. Then they returned to reality.
They returned to reality just as I was on the phone with Emergency Services reporting their disappearance. Amber & Leo looked much older, like they really belonged in a 1948 Buick.
Leo was hunched over a wooden cane and Amber wore librarian's spectacles on a chain around her neck, though she still squinted as if she were looking into the midday sun.
"When did we get old, Leo?" Amber asked. "When didn't e get old?" he answered. From the kitchen the tea kettle whined, but neither moved to fetch it. When Death arrived at the door
Leo and Amber left him standing on the porch. Apparently Death couldn't read. They had a "No Solicitation" sign by the doorbell, and "No Trespassing" signs all over the property. B
y the scruff of his neck did the truant officer drag Death to Mrs. Blake's 1st grade English class, sole adult among 25 gradeschoolers. "Who's home when *I* need to die?" he mused.
And it all began with a single Facebook post.
We don't know for sure that the Facebook post was single.
I'm just saying.
For all we know, the post could be married and looking to have an affair.
That would be a sad state of affairs, wouldn't it? You might even say it's… Complicated.

Long Lane Farm is Wesleyan's own student run organic farm devoted to allowing students a place to experiment and learn about sustainable agriculture. The farm is non hierarchical, meaning that any student with an idea for a project has the opportunity to realize its success. In addition to weekly meetings, students run work days every Saturday 10am-2pm during the Fall and Spring, though many students come out to the farm throughout the week to get their hands dirty digging, planting, and weeding. Long Lane also seeks to foster good relationships with local farmers.
The produce grown on Long Lane is sold at the Holden Farmer's Market, donated to Amazing Grace Food Pantry, or served to students in Usdan. All who are interested are welcome to join at any point during the year!
What does Long Lane grow?
In the past we have grown peppers tomatoes, herbs (basil, chives, mint, etc.), eggplant, berries, potatoes, onions, garlic, corn, kale, chard, peas and many other fruits and veggies! Long Lane uses a crop rotation system to keep the soil fertile.
What else happens at Long Lane?
Festivals! Every year, the students who run Long Lane hold two festivals for the entire Wesleyan/Middletown community.
Pumpkin Fest:
Every year hundreds of students come out to Long Lane to celebrate the harvest with music, food, and crafts. In addition to students, professors and Middletown residents frequent the event which occurs annually the weekend before Halloween.
May Day:
In early May Wes students and Middletown residents come to Long Lane to celebrate the planting season and springtime. May Day features student bands, food, and a May pole.
Faculty Plot!
Next to the student run plot is a faculty plot where interested faculty members are able to grow their own produce.
Summer Interns!
Summer is an important time on any farm. Therefore, a few students stay on every summer to tend the farm and prepare for the Fall harvest. In the past, this program has been funded by the COE, Bon Appetite, and the Green Fund.
Does the farm have a faculty adviser?
Yes. Though the farm is student run, Gillian Goslinga is the faculty adviser.

Columbia Police Respond to Shots Fired on Rosemary Lane
Related Story
COLUMBIA - Columbia police officers responded minutes after receiving multiple calls at 1:39 a.m. about a suspect firing a gun near the 1300 block of Rosemary Lane. Sergeant Jill Wieneke with the department said officers searched the area for the male suspect who was seen walking in the area prior to firing the gun.
No one was injured in the incident. Wieneke said it is not known whether or not there was a particular target or if it was a random act. Officers interviewed several witnesses at the scene.
KOMU 8 spoke to apartment residents Sunday who did not want to be identified. They claim the shots were the result of some sort of conflict. They said the suspect threw a potted plant at the apartment balcony, then left and returned with a gun, which they believe the suspect fired four to five times.
Residents say the police roped off the area where they found 5 bullet shells.
The police report describes the suspect as male, white, 6 feet 1 inch to 6 feet 3 inches tall, and someone who was in the Rosemary are prior to firing shots.
Neighbors said they believe the subject to be in his twenties with brown hair. They said they saw him wearing a white hoodie at the time of the incident.

On a beautiful Tuesday morning last month, Kevin Wallace slowly rose toward the aqua-blue sky at the corner of Art Museum Drive and the Benjamin Franklin Parkway diagonal from Eakins Oval. The burly technician guided the van-mounted cherry picker east to bring him eye level to a brown street pole.
Sliding metal radio receivers into pole-mounted racks and connecting fiber optic wires, Wallace installed some of the last pieces of equipment needed to complete a new cellular antenna system designed to flood the area with radio waves.
Wallace was one of 100 people working on the parkway that Tuesday racing to get the installation, called an Outdoor Distributed Antenna System or 'oDAS', up and running to provide expanded high-speed 4G LTE voice and data service along the grand avenue.
It's a network designed to (hopefully) keep 1.5 million of Pope Francis' pilgrims in contact with their families and social networks during his September visit — a daunting task.
The sheer number of people crammed into the confined area and data-hungry wireless habits of event attendees has wireless carriers beefing up coverage to ensure people can stay connected.
"That's a massive amount of people in the same place at the same time using their smartphone and tablet and that means it's a challenge, and we openly say that it is, but we're giving this challenge everything we've got," said AT&T spokeswoman Brandy Bell-Truskey.
AT&T and Verizon shelled out $42 million to make temporary and permanent upgrades around the region ahead of the papal visit. Both are leasing space on the parkway oDAS network and bringing in mobile cell towers called COWs (cells on wheels) to boost capacity.
Randall Miller, executive director of Verizon Wireless' local network operations, said engineers have been working to predict usage since the World Meeting of Families was announced in 2014.
"We'll use past models like Super Bowl events across the country or events on the Washington Mall like the presidential inauguration ... or New York City's Times Square for New Year's Eve celebrations," Miller said. "Those are all good starting points to give us what's going on and what we need to do to deploy capacity for this size."
During the 2015 Super Bowl in Glendale, Arizona, 70,000-plus attendees used more than 6 terabytes of data over wireless networks — the equivalent of posting 18 million photos to Instagram over just a few hours. Twenty-one times the people are expected to flood the parkway when Pope Francis celebrates Mass on September 27.
Adding to the unknown: when a large number of people will use the network. Traffic peaks during key points in an event or when something unexpected happens — something that's almost impossible to plan for.
"There are three wireless carriers that are trying to saturate the area with as much coverage as possible," said Mike Kavanagh, president of DAS Operations for Crown Castle. The telecommunications wholesaler designed and installed the oDAS system and carriers lease access for their customers.
The parkway oDAS array, described by Crown Castle employees as one-of-a-kind, is designed to relieve intense pressure a crush of people can inflict on wireless networks. It distributes 37 mini-cell towers — like Wi-Fi hot spots on steroids — along the parkway from the Cathedral Basilica of Sts. Peter and Paul to the Philadelphia Museum of Art. Each tower is low to the ground bringing access closer to the cellular user.
"We're trying to limit the interference and to do that you gotta get lower to the ground," Kavanagh said. The system's first big test will be the two-day Made in America festival. A fraction of the people expected for the papal visit will attend the concert, however — only 50,000 a day. The parkway system is permanent and will join a similar oDAS array installed across Center City.
The carriers aren't putting all their eggs in one basket, though. AT&T installed a new permanent cell tower at 23rd and Race streets. The temporary COWs they're deploying will feature nine cellular beams — an upgrade from one when used under normal circumstances.
"These antennas are able to better serve a crowd by dividing it into sections, each with its own dedicated antenna beam," Bell-Truskey said. "The increased beams help to improve customers' mobile experience by using cellular resources more efficiently."
Realizing the masses will be roaming the city and attending events in other venues like the Pennsylvania Convention Center, where the World Meeting of Families conference is being held, Verizon installed indoor cell sites and has taken a look at cell capacity on SEPTA's rail lines. They're also providing a secured network for the U.S. Secret Service, details of which, Miller declined to expand on.
Standing in Logan Circle, he said, "We're not just focused on the immediate event down here, but the Greater Philadelphia area as a whole."
While Pope Francis' visit was the catalyst for the added infrastructure, most of the upgrades are permanent meaning city residents can expect to reap the benefits with better service long after the papal visitors leave.

According to the results posted on Politico (as of December 11, 2016), it turns out that the red states are not as red as they seem.
Let us take a moment to look at the POPULAR VOTE in the states for whom all the electoral college votes went to Donald J. Trump (Alabama, Alaska, Arizona, Arkansas, Florida, Georgia, Idaho, Indiana, Iowa, Kansas, Kentucky, Louisiana, Michigan, Mississippi, Missouri, Montana, Nebraska, North Carolina, North Dakota, Ohio, Oklahoma, Pennsylvania, South Carolina, South Dakota, Tennessee,Texas, Utah, West Virginia, Wisconsin, Wyoming), ignoring any state that went to Democrats or had a split of their electoral votes (there was one, Maine).
Hillary Clinton wins the election by an extraordinary landslide. 20,304,480 not to put too fine a point on it. That's a few more people than currently live in Romania (*according to worldometers.info). Hillary Clinton won 60,499,165 votes to Donald J. Trump's 40,194,685 (for those interested there were 3,412,468 votes cast for "other" candidates). And for those of you that are more visually oriented. Here's what that looks like in a pie chart.
Please tell me again how the current political system helps to give a voice to the voters in those "lesser populated" states?
Can we stop fighting over the historical intent of our founding fathers and start having a real conversation about how to make America great again with election reform so WE THE PEOPLE can take back our country from BIG BUSINESS and the other wolves in sheep's clothing seeking political power at all cost?

Creative Workshop : Macrame Knots for Flying Plants
Last Saturday I had a fun filled afternoon with a good friend of mine. She asked me just a few days prior to join her in a workshop she wanted to do. You guys remember the crochet workshop I did (already two years back now)? It's so funny that you learn this kind of things at school when you were a kid, but if it's not something you practice often, it can be sometimes difficult to be on track again. Well, at this workshop we learned how to make macrame knots for "flying plants".
The workshop was given and held in the studio of OKES Curacao. Founder & owner, Sherrelle Nulkes is a very kind and sweet person and has the patience of explaining how we have to start this rope madness. First we had to pick out a glass jar, then the rope we would like to work it. I chose a jute rope and picked out big and small beads to add to the macrame knots.
We spray painted the jars to give them an extra effect. After they we were dried up, we got to choose a plant to put in the jars. I did that completely at the end, because we got the chance to make another one, but this time with a leather fabric. We had to cut out the circle to the size of the jar we picked out this time. This time I chose a wider jar.
The only problem I had was where I was going to hang these. Wasn't planning to make a little hole in the ceiling, so I got the bright idea to hang them at my new hat rack. I didn't had plants yet in my bedroom, so they are making the space even more brighter. Just got another flow in the room.
It's a great thing to go to these workshops. It was a small group and that made it even more fun and personal. Have you ever been to a workshop like this? Let me know in the comments below.

I've used some great wireless chargers in the past, and I've used some so that are not so hot. The RAVPower RP-WCN12 is different in its form, even though it functions the same as other Qi wireless chargers. It's shaped like a hockey puck. As a hockey fan, I was immediately drawn to it. But how does it stack up in a world full of Qi wireless chargers?
RAVPower did a fine job with the packaging. When you first slide open the RP-WCN12 box, you noticed that the device itself is nestled in soft foam padding. It's snug so you know that the unit was safe in transit. Removing the charging puck, we find a manual and a wall adapter. I was pleasantly surprised to find that RAVPower includes a charging adapter. Quite a few companies are failing to include this crucial piece of the puzzle. I guess they assume you have plenty of wall chargers lying around. Something that was noticeably missing was a micro USB charging cable, but we'll get into that in a little bit.
The circular puck itself is small, at only 7cm in diameter. This form factor is perfect for travel or just keeping out of sight until you need it. I have a Qi wireless charging plate from another company that is fine on my nightstand, but it's a bit big to leave out on the counter or shelf. It's certainly easier to tuck the RP-WCN12 into a backpack or travel bag when you're on the go. The micro USB cable that I thought was missing is actually attached to the unit itself. It wraps around the outside of the charger and the USB plug tucks into a slot on the bottom. Again, this makes the charger very easy to store and travel with. The downside to having the charging cable hardwired to the unit is that if the cable goes bad, you'll have to replace the whole device. This wireless charger seems well built, but we all know how finicky these cables can be sometimes.
As for actual performance, the RP-WCN12 was just as good as any wireless charger I've used. The top of the unit has a rubber ring on it, preventing your device from sliding off while charging. Two things I absolutely loved were the sound and light indicators. When you first place your device on the charger, it will beep once the coils are lined up properly. This is a genius way to let you know that your device is properly charging. RAVPower backs this up with a light that glows red when the unit isn't charging your device, and flashes red and green when it is charging. This flashing light was a bit annoying at night when I was trying to go to sleep, but it's one of the few times that I've used a Qi wireless charger and been absolutely sure that the charging coils were lined up properly. Sometimes there can be a question. I like having that extra piece of mind.
The RAVPower RP-WCN12 suffers from the same slow charging issue that all wireless chargers seem to struggle with. It has a 1A output, which when compared to a newer 2A wired charger, seems like it takes a really long time to charge your device. This is a limitation of the Qi wireless charging standard, and it's something you'll want to keep in mind when you step into the world of wireless charging. It's not a fault of RAVPower or the RP-WCN12.
Overall, this is a great wireless charger. It may be too small for use with a larger device like a tablet, but it's perfect for use with your smartphone. It's also easy to stow and easy to take with you when you're on the go. I do wish that the charging cable were detachable, however. A simple micro USB port on the side of the puck would enable you to easily replace the cable if it ever goes bad. I really like that RAVPower includes a wall adapter with the RP-WCN12, and I love the sound and LED charging indicators. This is well worth the $29.99 you'll spend for it on Amazon. Go get one.

text: We're not saying this is as bad as when Justin Bieber wrote that he hoped "great girl" Anne Frank "would have been a Belieber" at Amsterdam's Anne Frank House , but there's something similarly uncomfortable about the Biebs latest music video featuring him swaggering his way across the Great Wall of China. Perhaps it recalls the distasteful image of his body guards carrying him across , or maybe it's just that the general concept makes no sense, whatsoever. In any case, take a look at what might be Bieber's worst music video yet.

NBC greenlit three one-hour pilots yesterday, one of which was a new take on the classic 70's series "The Bionic Woman" reports Reuters.
"Bionic," which has received a cast-contingent order, is a reconceptualization of the show about a woman whose body is mechanically enhanced to save her life. Laeta Kalogridis and David Eick will serve as the writers/executive producers.
Reuters also reports that the network has given the go-ahead on "Chuck", a high-concept action dramedy twentysomething spies from "The O.C." creator Josh Schwartz.
The third series is "Fort Pit", a comedic drama from "Rescue Me" creators Denis Leary and Peter Tolan set at one of the most incompetent police precincts in Brooklyn.

Justin Gray and Jimmy Palmiotti are like Savoir Faire-they're everywhere. Whether it's comic books, movies, television or games, one of the most prolific writing teams in all media is there. The spectrum of properties they've worked with is extremely varied as well, from "Jonah Hex" to "Shanna the She-Devil" to "Speed Racer."
So it should have surprised no one when it was announced that the guys writing the story behind Midway's new "Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe" game were none other than Palmiotti and Gray. The game hit shelves November 16 and has been well received by both critics and fans. CBR News was able to corral the dynamic duo of writers for a conversation about "MK vs. DC," the art of writing for games, and what else they've been working on.
CBR: How did you become involved with "Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe?"
Jimmy Palmiotti: DC Comics and Midway Games did a deal to do a company crossover and both DC and Midway felt they should get some people on the project that were familiar with not only writing games but with the history of the DC characters, so we got the call to fly out to the Midway offices in Chicago and meet with the legendary [Mortal Kombat creator] Ed Boon and his crew. From there, we dug in and worked on the project for a few months till we felt we have covered all the ground that was needed to make sure the spine of the game was a workable one on all the different levels involved. The rest, hopefully, will be video game history.
Did you consider it a personal challenge that many people assumed the story for "MK vs. DC" couldn't possibly be good?
JP: Well, yes I did, mainly because its fun to show people that always assume the worst that they are wrong over and over again. But past that little fun feeling, all we ever care about is that the game is the best thing we can create and involves the players so much that they never will put it down.
Justin Gray: I felt the opposite, actually. I expect negativity to come pouring through the Internet every second of every day, but until you play the game you can't make an informed opinion. We had an obligation to make the game enjoyable for DCU fans and I think we did that.
JP: Personally, I think its one of the best fight games on the market and just the plain number of people already signed up to play it live is pretty amazing. I got friends that actually turned the battles into a drinking game challenge. I love that people are having so much fun with it.
In terms of story, the trailers and previews for "MK vs. DC" showed the MK and DC worlds merging together and each side needing to fight for the survival of their planet. For people who haven't checked out the game yet, what else can you tell them about the plot?
JP: Two worlds collide and two villains merge and chaos is everywhere. There is so much going on, I really don't know how to begin... Justin?
JG: I don't think I'm spoiling it at this point to say there's a logical mash up of these two universes and you see surprising similarities between the two. A battle with Darkseid and a Boom Tube accident causes the merger of realities.
How much freedom were you given to take the core concept of the game and run with it?
JP: Plenty, and that was one of the most fun parts of working on the project. Everything had to be cleared by each company, and at the point of writing it and working with the whole crew on the spine of the story, the approvals came fast and furious and I personally was shocked how much we got away with. Anyone that has already walked through the game already knows what I am talking about.
JG: Ed wanted us to bring authentic DCU flavor to the game and he placed his trust in us, as did Warner Bros. and DC. At the end of the day, you realize you're making this game for fans and we were given enough freedom to focus on that.
Did you help determine the roster of DC characters for the game?
JP: They were figured out beforehand and we were given them and extras to work with. Had we had the chance to do it, it would have featured Jonah Hex, Terra, Power Girl, Uncle Sam and the Freedom Fighters, Hawkman and Hawkgirl. I am sure you can figure out why. We think the decisions made on who is in the game makes a lot of sense on every level.
JG: Yeah, we offered a few suggestions, but the structure of characters was already in place.
How about Brutalities and Fatalities? Did you get to script any of the finishing moves for the DC characters?
JP: Actually, that was not part of our job, except to make sure they made sense with the characters' powers and personalities.
JG: That's all the realm of the amazing programmers and game architects.
Was there anyone or anything you wanted to see in the game that didn't make the cut?
JP: Justin and I came up with a Joker driving section that resembled "Death Race 2000," but in the end, most of everything we wanted was given to us and what you see on screen is a lot of our own personal wish lists. Honestly, if this game does well and sets the charts ablaze, I have a personal wish list all ready to go on which characters would be featured in the next one. I would love to see Lobo, Hawkgirl, Power Girl, and a few others kicking some ass.
JG: I think Hawkman would have been an awesome choice with the weapons and wings combination.
As the two of you worked on this project, did you tackle all of the story and characters together, or do you each tackle separate aspects?
JP: We work together and we worked with the Midway people and the Warner people at different times. Writing something like this involves a lot of layers that most people will never know about, and really, most people won't care about. Everyone involved was able to work on making this the best game they could and had a voice at all times to contribute.
JG: The whole project was collaborative as it should be, the interests of both Midway and DC were involved and, again, we aimed our sights on gameplay excitement for fans and people that may not have ever played this kind of game before.
Having written for both comics and games, how do the two genres relate in terms of structure, quantity of work, etc?
JG: Different in so many ways, and especially on a game like this where there are two different licensed characters interacting. With even the busiest of comics, there is a simple format to follow and a finite amount of pages to deal with. With the game, there are a ton of levels, battles and boss battles, cut aways; and since this is a game, there are things to take in consideration with the skill levels of the people playing the game. Writing a game like this is an involved process that can take up to a year to do sometimes, where a comic can usually be written in a week or two, and so on. I personally think the differences are huge and again, you need to have knowledge of what goes into a video game to make it work. I don't suggest on any level it's an easy thing to jump into if you can write comics, but the great thing about the experience of writing characters is that we get into the personalities.
Being gamers yourselves, were you fans of the Mortal Kombat franchise before? Which characters were your favorites?
JP: Yeah, I have all the MK past games and I remember playing the first in the arcade. There is a lot of history to the MK franchise and what's cool is they keep things fresh and groundbreaking each and every time out of the gate. Scorpion has always been one of my favorite characters and I got to work on him in this game. That's a pretty cool thing.
JG: I always liked Raiden. Hitting people with lightning is a power I'd like to have in real life.
Were you able to play the game throughout the development process?
JP: Actually, not so much till they had stuff in place for the premiere party of the game at the San Diego comic con. I got to spend a few hours messing around, and then when the event opened up I started challenging some reporters and guests and then the place became like a digital fight club, everyone there challenging each other. It's funny when you mix booze and video games. I was especially happy seeing people watching the players like a spectator sport.
In addition to "Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe," you've also recently written the animated movie for EA's "Dead Space." What other game-related projects are you working on now?
JP: The "Deadspace: Downfall" movie was a pretty awesome thing to be working on, and if you play the game at all, you really understand how cool and important this project was. Justin just did some additional dialogue for a game coming out next year and also worked on the comic book-tie in, but by contract we cannot talk about it right now. We have been in talks with a major company about another project, but until the next gig, we are doing some consulting work. That, the screenwriting and the monthly comics are enough to keep anyone from catching any sleep, and I couldn't be happier about it.
JG: Jimmy answered that exactly, but what some publishers are becoming aware of rather quickly is that the gaming industry is limitless with a much larger audience. Just look at the "Gears of War" comic, it shows you that these kinds of multi-media campaigns are brilliant when you have the right product to back.
"Mortal Kombat vs. DC Universe" is available now for the Playstation 3 and Xbox 360.

"Striking new MRI images show that for twins, sibling rivalry starts early — even before birth," so states an article and an accompanying video. "Researchers in London were trying to find out more about a rare blood disease that can complicate the pregnancies for women carrying twins, when they captured video of what appears to be two fetuses ((from the Latin meaning "offspring")) pushing each other as they try to make more room."
A Huffington Post article describes the unborn twins this way: "Siblings apparently are never too young to be rivals, a video taken from a new high-clarity MRI scan shows."
The above description is similar to the biblical story of Jacob and Esau:
"But the children struggled together within her; and she said, 'If it is so, why then am I this way?' So she went to inquire of the Lord. The Lord said to [Rebekah], 'Two nations are in your womb; and two peoples will be separated from your body; and one people shall be stronger than the other; and the older shall serve the younger'" (Gen. 25:22–23).
For babies to "struggle," they have to have consciousness. The fact that Jacob and Esau struggled throughout their lives shows that life is a continuum.
The last thing the pro-abortion movement wants to do is admit that pre-born babies are actually babies and not just "products of conception." In order for the pro-abortion lobby to maintain the "illusion" of non-life, it must depersonalize the "thing" being aborted.
A similar tactic was used with slaves. They were considered "chattel," personal property that can be bought and sold as commodities. It's a common practice that has a long history:
"During the Holocaust, Nazis referred to Jews as rats. Hutus involved in the Rwanda genocide called Tutsis cockroaches. Slave owners throughout history considered slaves subhuman animals. In Less Than Human, David Livingstone Smith argues that it's important to define and describe dehumanization, because it's what opens the door for cruelty and genocide."
"When the Nazis described Jews as Untermenschen, or subhumans, they didn't mean it metaphorically, says Smith. 'They didn't mean they were like subhumans. They meant they were literally subhuman.'"
Livingstone writes: "From the beginning, Hitler and his followers were convinced that the Jewish people posed a deadly threat to all that was noble in humanity. In the apocalyptic Nazi vision, these putative enemies of civilization were represented as parasitic organisms — as leeches, lice, bacteria, or vectors of contagion. 'Today,' Hitler proclaimed in 1943, 'international Jewry is the ferment of decomposition of peoples and states, just as it was in antiquity. It will remain that way as long as peoples do not find the strength to get rid of the virus.'"
In a similar way, preborn babies have been dehumanized. They are described as "products of conception," "unwanted pregnancies," "mass of cells," "blob of protoplasm," "potential" life, etc.
With 3D and 4D imaging and videos of twins pushing and shoving one another in utero it's getting harder for the pro-abortionists to maintain the fiction that preborn babies are not, well, preborn babies.

The Zombies return to Milwaukee, this time at the Pabst
The classic '60s band might have been a footnote in history, were it not for their masterpiece "Odessey and Oracle," a post-breakup album that would later be the defining Summer of Love sound.
It's not entirely common, but every now and then a band will release an outstanding piece of work, only to break up almost immediately after the album's release. The Zombies "succeeded" in this at an exceedingly high level; their 1968 album Odessey and Oracle is among the most influential albums of all time, and a personal favorite of mine. Back in action in 2010 after a series of breakups and personnel changes, the Zombies will be appearing at the gorgeous Pabst Theater Wednesday, Sept 25.
The Zombies' rise to stardom was rather quick. The band formed in 1962 and subsequently won a competition that ultimately funded the recording of their first single, "She's Not There." The song became an instant hit on both sides of the Atlantic in 1965, cracking the top 20 in the U.K. and the top 10 in the U.S.
Things just as quickly started to fade for the Zombies. Subsequent singles and their first album (titled Begin Here across the Atlantic; just The Zombies in the States) failed to re-create the success of their sole hit.
Their second album, Odessey and Oracle was recorded in 1967 at Abbey Road Studios, just months after the completion of Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Hearts Club Band. What came out of these sessions was an incredibly sophisticated work that blended chamber pop with more psychedelic elements. The album opens with "Care of Cell 44", a fantastic "Penny Lane"-esque psych-pop nugget, filled with lush harmonies. "A Rose for Emily" follows, stripping down to a basic piano and vocal arrangement, showcasing Rod Argent and Colin Blunstone's voices front and center. "I Want Her, She Wants Me" sounds like a refined Strawberry Alarm Clock tune, driven by harpsichord and the group's strong vocal harmonies. Arguably the album's best known track, "Time of the Season," seems to stand out a bit as the album's closer, and there's no better example of Argent's organ skill on the album than on this track.
Many musicians aspire to someday make their magnum opus, their own Sgt. Pepper, if you will. The Zombies did better without even trying.
The Zombies take the stage at the Pabst Theater Wednesday September 25. Tickets are still available and can be purchased online or at the door. Follow Sahan Jayasuriya on Twitter and Instagram @sahanicyouth.

I'm not sure how much I've ever talked about it. Our canoe. It's old. It's ugly. And it leaks. I know I've uploaded a couple pictures of fish in the bottom of it, in pools of water.
Last weekend, Brother's friend observed that not only was paddling it like steering a semi truck, but "we also appear to be taking on water?". We assured him that yeah, that was perfectly normal. Nights up north where we left it partially beached, we'd return to it and have to dump it out before me pushed off. Matt did buy it for $60 from a guy on Craigslist. That guy had repaired the hull with a piece of aluminum and some Bondo (not kidding). Watching Brother's Friend paddle it around trying to pick up fallen ducks, I realized why we got all those funny looks. Thing is ugly.
Well, Matt's planning on taking 3-5 people with him tomorrow for the duck opener. At least two guys from his office, and at least two I know of from the Janesville office. Our jon boat can hold 3 grown men, max, if we're also hauling guns and decoys. So, the canoe is going with. But we both felt bad about sticking some poor fools in our leaky, tippy canoe for their first time duck hunting. Matt's been meaning to fix the leak all summer, but doing it from the outside would mean sanding off all the paint, scraping off all the Bondo, removing that piece of aluminum, and starting fresh. He slapped on a BandAid for the time being. For permanent if it works out.
He laid fiberglass all down the middle, where the cracks were. It's been drying under Ditch Boat's shelter for the last few days. It's been dry and relatively warm, with very low humidity. So, hopefully we now have a more watertight canoe for the newbs to use, and for us to have. It's still pretty ugly, though.

Critical Analysis of Google PageRank Dissemination
|Fecha alta: March 17, 2009 05:53:08 AM
|Author: Anonymous
|Categoría: Internet: Posicionamiento. SEO - SEM
|In the SEO community there is a lot of attention paid to PageRank as an indicator of a domain's value.
Although it is one of the most important factors in a domain's value in the eyes of Google, there are a few things that should be understood.First of all, for anyone who doesn't know what PageRank is - it is a value used by Google to determine how important a domain is based on analysis of hyperlinks. This holds true for both external and internal links. Google PageRank has eleven scores, between 1 and 10.
The higher the PageRank, the more likely Google is to trust it. Pages that don't have any PageRank are often referred to as having N/A PageRank.Google assigns each page on the internet a weight and when one page links to another it passes some value onto the page it is linking to.
The higher the PageRank of web pages linking to a given page, the higher its PageRank is likely to be. So, if a page has 4 PageRank 4 and 3 PageRank 3 links pointing at it, it will probably be assigned a PageRank of 4. A site can have a high PageRank with relatively few links pointing to it if those links are of a high PageRank.PageRank is generally not assigned to a web page higher than the pages that link to it.
The most important factor in the assignment of PageRank to a web page is the PageRank of the pages linking to it. Sheer quantity of links does not help to increase PageRank. Also, web pages that have a lot of low PageRank and PageRank N/A hyperlinks pointing to them can have their PageRank reduced as a result. There are those that suggest that the text content of a page affects PageRank assignment, but this doesn't seem to be the case.
There is no substantiated evidence that text affects PageRank other than pages that have been spammed often have their PageRank removed.When it come to sub-pages, the time Google has known about them is a factor in PageRank distribution. When new sites first get assigned PageRank their sub-pages often remain without any PageRank.
In general, sub-pages are somewhat slow to get give PageRank. Google is generally less trusting of sub-pages unless they belong to a trusted domain. In particular websites with a lot of sub-pages and even more so sites that link to a lot of internal pages (like directories) can struggle to pass their PageRank to internal pages.
The structure of the site has a major role to play in the assignment of PageRank. Google uses what is known as block level analysis to pick apart web pages. They use their knowledge of the architecture of the web to decide what links on a page are probably the most important and the pages these links point to are more likely to receive PageRank.Google can and do change websites' PageRank.
This is generally as a penalty for sites that have used unhonest practices. This can often cause all the site's sub-pages to loose their PageRank. It has also been claimed that in the past Google has made mistakes in PageRank distribution.Last but not least, the PageRank of a web page may change even though there has been no change in the links pointing to that page.
This is either due to changes in the structure of links between all websites or adjustments made by Google.Sky Alfaro is an SEO consultant with the SEM Labs SEO Agency where she helps small to medium sized companies with search engine marketing training.

BILBAO, Spain (Reuters Life!) - Spain's success in the World Cup has highlighted the kind of deep political divisions which mean that some Spanish residents will be cheering on Netherlands in Sunday's final.
The team's unprecedented performance has prompted the unveiling of Spanish flags on balconies in areas where nationalist flags would be more typical, irritating separatists in the northern Basque and Catalan regions.
"If it were up to me, I'd have Netherlands beat Spain 30-0," said Inaki Atxutegi, a 40-year-old economist from the Basque port of Bilbao.
The Basque and Catalan regions have different languages and cultural identities and many of their residents want greater, if not full, autonomy from Madrid.
"(Madrid politicians) are using the success of the Spanish team, made up almost entirely of Catalans and Basques, to sell a concept of Spain that many Basques do not share," Atxutegi said.
Soccer achievement has also clashed with a controversial ruling by the Constitutional Court on a statute setting out the limits of Catalan autonomy from Madrid.
The court concluded that Catalonia could not be recognized as a separate nation, and hundreds of thousands are expected to join a protest in Barcelona on Saturday.
"There will end up being more Spanish flags because of the Spain-Netherlands match on Sunday than Catalan flags because of Saturday's protest," complained the deputy head of Catalonia's regional government, Josep Lluis Carod-Rovira, in a blog.
Spain coach Vicente del Bosque told a news conference in Johannesburg on Saturday he hoped the harmonious relationship between his players and their emphasis on teamwork would inspire similar feelings back home.
"I hope that we'll look at things in a less radical way and through football create better relations among the regions in our country," said the 59-year-old, who is from Salamanca.
Midfielder Xavi, who plays for Barcelona, added:
"There are many players from the Barca team and that, of course, makes me very proud.
"But it's not only about Barca. We want everyone to feel very proud in the whole of Spain, not only in Catalonia, about the football we are playing."
Even showing Spain's games on public screens is proving controversial.
The city of Barcelona, the capital of Catalonia, had up to now declined to show Spain's games on public screens, despite the fact that seven players in the starting 11 for the semi-final against Germany last Wednesday play for Barcelona.
On Sunday, however, it will show the final on a public screen in the city, something greeted as a victory in itself by right-wing Spanish media commentators in Madrid.
But some are resentful that the Catalan national team are not able to compete in top international tournaments, especially since Carles Puyol's match-winning header against Germany was the result of a move worked out on the training ground at Barcelona, according to the defender.
Neither world soccer's governing body FIFA nor its European equivalent UEFA recognize the Catalan team which typically plays a friendly against an international side in December each year.
"I don't feel Spanish at all, I can't help that," said Marc Morell, 46, from the Catalan city of Tarragona.
"But Puyol and the rest would rather play for a Catalan national team, if only we were allowed to create one. They only play for Spain because they have no choice."
Still for some, like Aitor Zuazua, a 32-year-old stockbroker from the Basque town of Getxo, football and politics do not mix.
"I'd never put a (Spanish) red shirt on but I still want Spain to win," he said.
