An effective method of removing wrinkles and creases from artwork, this process flattens the artwork by bonding it to a substrate. Paper is vulnerable to changes in heat and humidity, and over time it can expand and contract causing unsightly bowing and rippling, even in a frame. A sheet of dry adhesive tissue is positioned between the artwork and the backing board. They are placed in a vacuum press together which heats the tissue to melting point, creating a permanent and irreversible bond.
This technique is suitable for low value posters and photographs, we would not recommend it for original artwork or limited edition prints, as it would reduce them in value. Also any artwork that melts above 180 degrees should not be drymounted such as waxed paper and colour photocopies. In these circumstances a cold mounting process can be used.
We have a variety of substrates including foamex which is a lightweight and rigid foam board, and Kapa board which has a polyurethane foam core and an aluminium reinforced outer layer of white card.
Posters or photographic prints can be given extra depth by drymounting onto 12mm MDF blocks. The edges are given a small 45 degree bevel and can be painted black, white, or any colour of your choice. The surface is coated with a matte laminate enabling it to be wiped clean. The addition of a single hole on the back will allow it to sit flush with the wall, or we can add mirror plates or the traditional d-rings and cord. Blockmounting is suitable for displaying items where it is not desirable to use glass for weight or safety reasons, for example in a child's bedroom.
Mounting on 2mm aluminium gives a very rigid and flat surface that is ideal for mounting photographs. Dibond is made from a grey polyethylene core sandwiched between two thin sheets of aluminium. This provides all the advantages of aluminium but is significantly lighter.
Perspex face mounting (or Acrylic Face Mounting) is the mounting of a photographic print between a sheet of Perspex and a Aluminium or Dibond backing sheet.
Float mounting is the term used to describe work being supported solely by its backmount, in order to show fully the edges of the work, like the deckled edge of the Korean woodblock print to the right. A window mount could be cut to surround the piece, or fillets used to keep the glass away from the artwork as in this case. It is not advisable to lay the glass directly on the artwork.
The use of archival water activated linen tape is recommended for float mounting as it is non acidic, reversible and forms a stronger integral bond than any self adhesive tape. A minimal amount of tape should be used, preferably in two corners only so the artwork 'hangs' as sometimes if it is attached by four corners the paper can buckle due to changes in humidity.
The choice of hinging (attaching the artwork to the backboard) depends on the piece of work. For most jobs an archival self adhesive pressure sensitive tape will suffice to fix the artwork down. It is acid free, quick and easy to apply and doesn't discolour but the disadvantage is that it can be difficult to remove, especially from thin paper. It is reversible with the right solvent but this must be done with patience. If the artwork is deemed important and valuable enough then it is more appropriate to use mulberry paper strips (torn not cut so as to be less likely to leave an impression through the artwork) and wheat starch paste, which is water soluble and reversible. Mulberry paper is a long fibred Japanese paper that is completely non acidic and benign to the artwork. These woodblock prints by Eric Ravilious below have been t-hinged to the backing board using this method, which is thoroughly time tested and has been used for generations by oriental mounters, and is the method of choice for museums and galleries throughout the world.
Glass is prone to condensation and moisture can build up on the inside of the frame where there is no ventilation and damage the artwork, either through the formation of mould or by physically sticking to the glass. The main purpose of a window mount (or mat in the U.S.A) is to separate the artwork from the glass, however as well as protecting the artwork it also has a cosmetic function. The 'window' that surrounds the artwork is cut at a 45 degree angle, and with careful choice can bring out the colours in an image and draw in the eye, as well as serving the purpose of increasing the overall size of the frame.
To further enhance the mount, the bevel can be coloured, and also a series of lines and light semi transparent washes can be applied around the bevel cut window to complement the image. By increasing the distance between lines further away from the window,and changing their thickness, a sense of perspective is created that draws the eye in.
If you wish to add type to the mount we can print onto a very thin self adhesive acetate called a safmat
It is also possible to laser engrave plaques or even the frame itself.
The plaques can have either a silver or bronze effect, with either a matte or polished finish. Logos or other high contrast artwork can also be scanned and incorporated onto the plaque as well as plain text.

Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser
Theres something about headlights and the grill that adds distinction to a Four Wheel Drive. The rugged lines of the front end and shape of the headlights really adds character to a rig. This was the case when we first set eyes on the Toyota FJ40 Land Cruiser.
Over the years, our Land Cruisers headlights seem to have dimmed and become dull. With so many new lighting options on the market, we decided it was time to give our Land Cruiser a facelift. Our hopes were that we would be able to increase the lighting powermaking our rig much more safe and fun to drive.
Lighting technology has really improved over the years. Back in the 60s when the Toyota Land Cruiser was in its infant stages, the lighting used was plain incandescent headlights. Later in late 1970s/early 80s the upgrade was made to Halogen headlights. They were brighter and lasted longer than conventional incandescent lighting. Today we see a variety of new lighting being used in the automotive industryincluding LED and HID.
Our overall goal was to make our headlamps brighter. Although a full HID kit would have been nice for our project, the price tag was a little much. We had heard some good things about the SilverStar High Performance lighting by Sylvania, one of the leaders in automotive lighting. Their High Performance lighting is claimed to give you similar light to HID, but without the cost. We decided to give them a whirl, so we drove down and picked up a set of 7-inch round SilverStar sealed headlights at Kragen Oreilly from our buddy Spencer.
Sylvania SilverStar Performance Lights (12V, 65/55 Watts)
Back at the garage, we were really impressed with the packaging and quality of the sealed beams. Sylvania is based out of Hillsboro, NH and together with OSRAM GmbH is the leader in automotive lighting for original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) and the aftermarket. They make a nice product and it shows.
They claim to provide brighter and whiter lightup to 35% brighter and up to 30% more downroad visibility, and up to 35% more sideroad visibility than conventional halogen. They also have a color temperature of 4000K (Kelvin).
For those of you able to change out headlight capsules (most late model vehicles), you can get the SilverStar ULTRA--which claim to give up to 50% whiter, brighter light. They also give up to 40% more downroad visibility and up to 50% more sideroad visibility.
Using a Philips screwdriver, only four bolts need to be removed to take off grill. Three additional bolts need to be removed from each headlight in order to take off the metal retainer. Unplug the headlight and out comes the old H4 headlight.
Installation was easy: 1. Remove old headlights, 2. Install new headlights, 3. Check your aim.
The part number we used was Sylvania Performance H6024. These 7-inch round SilverStars are great replacements for any off-road vehicle running round lights (H4 sealed beams)--like Jeep Wrangler TJ, CJ5, CJ7, and early Ford Bronco or any other sealed beam off-road vehicles. Not only are they direct replacements, but also will increase the brightness of your headlights and are 100% street legal.
To make sure we had good contact with our new headlights, we took the extra step to clean out our plug with some CRC Electric Cleaner. Adding some di-electric grease after the plug dries is also recommended to ensure good conductivity and no corrosion, especially in these old rigs.
Installation took less than 15 minutes per light. What took a little more time was adjusting the headlight beam. Although its tempting to skip this step and just drive off, you should really spend the extra time adjusting your headlight to get the best lighting possible. You might as well become familiar with the idiosyncrasies of your rig--you will find that off-road vehicles need regular adjustment to lighting thanks to excessive vibration from rough roads.
Sylvania provides some easy tips on how to adjust your headlights:
|It is evident in this photo that the left headlight needs additional alignment.
1. Find a place that is at least 40-feet of flat ground from a garage door or wall.
2. Pull the vehicle straight up to within 6-inches from the wall.
3. Turn on Low-beams and mark the center of each light with masking tape, making a + target on the wall.
4. Back the vehicle straight back until you are about 25-feet from the wall.
5. The top of the beam pattern should be about 1-2 inches below the horizontal line created by the targets.
6. Horizontal adjustment is not usually required but the beam pattern created by each headlight should be down and to the right of each respective target.
*Consult your owners manual for specifics on your vehicle.
We are really impressed with our SilverStar Performance headlights from Sylvania. Although they arent HIDthey come darn close for a halogen. They are really bright and white. The SilverStars have definitely added visibility on and off the road.
So far the Sylvania SilverStars have held up really well on our little iron pig. They have added to the overall look of the rig, even when the lights are off. The modern glass housing and light pattern looks really sharp.
Overall, we are really pleased with the Sylvania SilverStar headlights and would highly recommend them to anyone looking to upgrade or replace their lights. Weather you run sealed beams or modern day housings with light capsules, at less than $60 for a pair, you cant beat it. Not only will your headlights be brighter, but it will also add safety to your 4x4.

(LAKE RIDGE, VA) – Today, Citizens in Charge Foundation, a national voter rights group focused on the ballot initiative and referendum process, presented Janine Hansen, a Nevada citizen activist working with Citizen Outreach with the June 2011 John Lilburne Award for her outstanding dedication to protecting Nevada's citizen initiative rights from legislation that would have severely restricted those rights.
Let's dispense with the obvious right away: Some Boulder City residents say they think most of their city council members, along with the city attorney, are power hungry and care as little for the law as they do for the will of the people.
Boulder City, Nevada, Attorneys Honored for Work Protecting Citizens from Free Speech Attack by City
(LAKE RIDGE, VA) – Today, Citizens in Charge Foundation, a national voter rights group focused on the ballot initiative and referendum process, presented attorneys Tracy and Linda Strickland of Boulder City, Nevada, with the February 2011 John Lilburne Award. The Stricklands are representing a group of Boulder City citizens who, in pursuing several local initiative measures, have been repeatedly sued by the city.
For the first time since 1992, Nevada voters will find no question on their November ballot that qualified as the result of a citizen's initiative petition, the secretary of state's office has reported. The deadline for submitting the required number of signatures to county clerks passed Tuesday with no petitions presented in any county. Three petitions to amend the state Constitution were in circulation.
Nevada voters won't get the chance to decide whether the state's booming mining industry should pay higher taxes. On Monday, the Progressive Leadership Alliance of Nevada, or PLAN, said it wouldn't meet today's deadline to provide the 97,002 signatures from registered voters needed to place the mining tax initiative on the November ballot.
Jumping on a hot election-year issue, U.S. Senate candidate Chad Christensen on Thursday launched a ballot initiative that would impose an Arizona-like law in Nevada, giving authorities the right to question and arrest possible illegal immigrants in certain cases. Christensen, a Las Vegas assemblyman, said he is working on a draft of his Nevada Immigration Reform Referendum and would start gathering signatures immediately, although he is not sure whether he'll be able to meet a deadline to get the initiative on the November ballot.
Boulder City residents petitioning for more ballot initiatives in the upcoming general election submitted a charter amendment question Thursday regarding the appointment of the city attorney. The amendment initiative asks whether the city attorney should be elected instead of appointed by the City Council. The ballot committee submitted the question along with 869 signatures and 195 notarized pages. To be placed on the ballot, an initiative must be accompanied by a petition signed by at least 640 registered voters, according to the city clerk's office.
The committee working to get the issue of a second landfill on the ballot in November turned in their signatures to the Humboldt County Clerk's Office on Wednesday. The committee needed 852 signatures but collected 1294 — just to be on the safe side. If ultimately included on the ballot, the voters would have an opportunity to decide whether or not they want to limit the amount of garbage that could be imported to a second landfill within the county.
The Nevada Supreme Court heard arguments Tuesday on a ballot initiative that would outlaw abortions in the state. The group "Personhood Nevada" wants to redefine the law to provide civil rights to the unborn fetus, making it illegal to terminate a pregnancy. The case was appealed after a lower court ruled the petition was too broad and violated state law. The ACLU and Planned Parenthood are trying to stop the initiative, claiming it fails to inform voters that it would affect both abortions and birth control.

Winter Rules (Preferred Lies) come into play from October 1st 2018 until April 30th 2019
01 October 2018
Please be aware that Winter Rules (Preferred Lies) come into play from October 1st 2018 until April 30th 2019.
Preferred lies' is the term that means that you as a golf player are allowed to improve your lie without penalty on certain parts of a golf course. It's a local rule only and is also known as 'winter rules'. It's only in effect if you're informed upon arrival at the golf course. In a preferred lies situation you always mark your ball first. 'Preferred lies' means a golfer can lift up the ball (if he or she want to) that is landed on a closely-mown area and move it to improve the ball position, but not closer to the hole. A closely-mown area is any area of the course that is cut to fairway height or less and includes paths cut through the rough and the fringe/apron around the green. If the ball doesn't lie on a closely-mown area, the player can't take a preferred lie.
Why does this (local) rule exist?
Imagine a golf course is struck by a very bad drought. Its fairways are baked and there are bare patches of ground in the fairways. Than course management, a committee or the club might invoke the 'Preferred Lies' (local) rule so that its golfers can find a good lie in those damaged fairways. Only than a player is entitled to prefer the lie of their ball. Simply saying "preferred lies in operation" or "winter rules apply" is inadequate. Nor can a player decide himself that the rule is in effect.
How to handle in the situation of a preferred lie?
The position of the ball must be marked first. This can be done with a tee, a pitch fork or e.g. a coin. Than you can lift the ball up and clean it if desired. The ball must then be (re)placed on a spot not nearer to the hole within the area specified e.g. within six inches. This distance is decided by the local commission. So it's best to check it in advance, to avoid an unnecessary penalty of one stroke. The ball is in play as soon as it's placed on the ground. If the player picks it up again and moves it, he would incur a penalty stroke for 'moving his ball in play'. Preferred Lies and other winter rules are no official Rules of Golf; instead, they are always a local rule.

I have never understood the notation for Kodak characteristic curves. Why do they use Lux Seconds and what is the significance of zero lux seconds on the x axis of all their film curves? And what is the significance of -3.0 lux seconds?
p.s. I know what a characteristic is but why do kodak seem to use something different than we all do when working out sensitometry?

We get some customer support calls that refer to erratic behaviour of the V1 plug. Its not very comon, but we thought it made sense for us to write a short FAQ to highlight this and to show the fix.
Those erratic behaviours can be
1) LED won't switch off
2) LED won't switch on
3) LED used to be static but now flashes
Initially we supplied free replacements, and later did get some thought to be faulty plugs returned from customers that had those behaviours. Upon a brief inspection it was clear that the problem/s were due too over tightening the plug.
When the plug is screwed in the gray button makes contact with the flat face inside the ball and the LED lights up. Unscrew a full turn and the LED goes off. Simple and it works.
But if you keep screwing the plug in after the plug lights up there is a chance the switch will be crushed. A 1/4 turn is OK after the LED lights up and/or there will also be slight resistance when the switch makes contact, then stop turning.
See picture below.
There is a slot in the cap and its a perfect place to put a coin to tighten the plug. But don't do that as the tendency is to over tighten.The slot is there for a coin, in case the plug binds with grit and ONLY so its easier to REMOVE the plug.
Its also wrongly assumed that screwing the plug in really tightly will seal the ball better in wet conditions.
Note: Per the instruction that came with the set. Overtightening will void the warranty.
Solution to fix:
The good thing is that it is often a simple fix. Just gently pry the strap up with a small pen knife, metal nail file or similar, unitl the strap is parallel to the circuit board ( see plug on right below ). This will release pressure on the rubber switch and all should be normal again.
If that fix does not work you can buy sets of replacement plugs on the Replacement Parts page. Click here.

Judge Slaps RCCG Pastor Over Noise Pollution
There was pandemonium on Wednesday, at the Redeemed Christian Church of God, Glory Tabernacle Parish, Ijapo-Estate Akure, Ondo State, when a court Judge attacked the pastor and a member over noise pollution.
Justice Omoleye Folayemi reportedly stormed the church during the mid-week 'Divine Encounter Service' that normally holds between 10:00am to 12:00pm, and started making a video while complaining about the effects of the pollution.
However, a 68-year-old assistant pastor approached the judge and kicked the phone away from her hand, prompting Justice Folayemi to pounce on her. According to reports, the judge also slapped a pastor who tried to intervene.
It was gathered that Justice Folayemi's house is located close to the church and she had complained several times over the noise that emanates from the church during programs, but got no positive feedback from RCCG.

Behold a video of a Christian rap group performing their song, "Christian Side Hug."
While it may appear to be a parody, internet research has shown that this video is a real Christian rap group. The song was performed at the Encounter Generation Conference, an annual Christian youth conference.
Sometimes the lyrics were a bit difficult to decipher and at one point it sounded like there was a reference to being rough rider and something about a Chrysler. However, through research, it appears the lyrics are "I'm rough rider filled up with Christ love." Just in case anybody else was confused.
Further explanation on the side hug can be found at Stuff Christians like.
Is it a new trend sweeping the nation? Is it only for Christians? Is the song sending a positive message to youth?
Share your thoughts here.
By the way, through all the research, I could not find the name or any information about the group that performs the song. Anyone who does know, please post it in the comments. It would be greatly appreciated.

Adoption Journey — Day 214 (or, 7 months after we started…)
Today, we got the email to begin our immigration paperwork for Mystery Baby.
Basically, the way it works is this: we apply to sponsor our child to come to Canada as a Permanent Resident of Canada, as well as to have a Visa issued for the child to come to Canada. They are the key documents we need to be able to travel to get our child, as well as to bring them back. And, although a lot has to happen before then, we're getting started now so we can have all our ducks in a row when the time comes to apply.
Some good things about this:
- Since I am not working (no income), only BDH has to sponsor the child… which means, less paperwork for me! WHEE!
- The sponsorship is the first step, so if that comes back promptly, then we can send off the permanent residence documents, which are required for our Mystery Baby to become a Canadian.
- The Visa is often a long time coming, so the more promptly we get it sent off, the better.
- Our agency has someone who is a specialist in the immigration paperwork, so it is her job to make sure we fill everything our correctly and get it in promptly.
- If things are delayed a bit, well… that's not entirely a bad thing, because there's a bill in the government that comes into effect around December 23rd. When it comes into effect, every internationally adopted child automatically becomes a citizen rather than a permanent resident. Depending on timing, that would eliminate one bit of paperwork (and a very LONG process at that) for us, to apply for our child's citizenship when we get Mystery Baby home. At this point, there's no word on whether or not it will be retroactive, so we have to go on the assumption that we will apply for sponsorship, then permanent resident status, then citizenship. I'd just as soon eliminate the middleman, thankyouverymuch.
- It's not a really expensive part of the process, which is good because soon will come our biggest hit in fees, when we have to send money to Ethiopia to cover the legal costs there.
- It's another thing we can check off our checklist!
So, one foot in front of the other, one piece of paper after another, one bill in front of the other… all part of the journey, as we get closer and closer.

What Are My Miranda Rights?
Posted By Darrigo, Diaz & Jimenez
When police make an arrest, they are required to recite your Miranda Rights. Regardless of whether or not you have ever been arrested, you are likely familiar with these or some slight variation of these words: "You have the right to remain silent. Anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to speak to an attorney, and to have an attorney present during any questioning. If you cannot afford a lawyer, one will be provided for you at government expense."
What exactly are these rights, and how do they protect you? It is critical that police officers read you these rights – if they do not, they cannot use anything you say against you in court – essentially rendering their case against you invalid.
The Origin of Miranda Rights
Miranda Rights are named after the landmark U.S. Supreme Court case Miranda v. Arizona. In this case, Ernesto Miranda was arrested for stealing $8.00 from a bank worker in Arizona. Because he was never told that he had a right to an attorney and a right not to speak to police, he simply confessed to this and two other crimes, and was subsequently found guilty. This decision was appealed. The Justices ruled that the statements Miranda made could not be used against him in court because he had not been informed of his rights under the Constitution.
Since then, police are now required to recite the Miranda warning to suspects before they can be questioned. In short, this case did not establish new rights, but simply instituted further protection of existing rights guaranteed by the Fifth and Sixth Amendment.
Here is a breakdown of your rights under the Constitution and what it means for you:
- You have the right to remain silent. You don't have to talk to police or give them any statements without your lawyer present. We advise you to firmly, but politely, inform the arresting officer that you will not answer any questions until you have contacted an attorney.
- Anything you say can be used against you in a court of law. Many innocent people, intimidated by an arrest and questioning, give up their right to remain silent without realizing how much they may be hurting their case. Be aware that even what you consider to be innocuous statements can be used to convict you, so it is wise to withhold answering questions until an attorney can advise you.
- You have the right to have an attorney present. You don't have to answer any questions without legal counsel present. If the police try to question a subject after an arrest, they must cease the interrogation if the suspect requests an attorney.
- If you cannot afford an attorney, one will be provided for you. Suspects must be informed that if they cannot afford to pay an attorney, one will be appointed to them at no charge. This insures that all people have access to justice regardless of their ability to pay.

The New Year, 2014
New Year's resolutions have never quite stuck with me. I have done them all- resolve to exercise more, lose weight, be more patient, so on and so forth. I even made resolutions when I was teaching- grade and return assignments faster, keep my classroom organized, blah, blah, blah.
And you know how long those resolutions lasted? About 4 days. I am probably not the sole deserter of the Resolution Revolution.
There is ONE resolution that I am proud that I have kept. Honest- like 75% of the time, which I think is pretty good statistically. A few years ago, I made the resolution to make my bed every day. I know, sounds a little childish, but I was totally guilty of not making the bed (one of those college habits that just kinda stuck around). And Mike certainly wasn't going to do it, considering his mom always made his bed when he was growing up. So one year, I just decided to do it. And I did it the next day. And the next. In fact, I made it yesterday too.
2013 has been a fantastic year for me and my family, and I hope that 2014 will be just a great. Since 2013 was a year was full of change, I am going to take another stab at this Resolution concept. But I am going to make them really vague, to increase my odds of success. I really don't like that guilty failure feeling.
1. Stay more organized This could be as simple as placing dirty socks in the hamper and not beside it (Clough offspring take note). Maybe it's tackling the mail immediately, and not letting it sit on the counter. Maybe it's putting away cookie cutters and sketches so that they are more easily found when you're in a hurry. . . um. . . yeah. . . need to work on that one.
2. Waste not, want not. Repurposing items is so trendy now, which is great for the ol' bank account. An oversized computer cabinet repurposed as a linen closet? Did it! Using a cookie cutter for some other design? Did it! Creating cookies with all the cutters that I bought in 2013? <insert cricket chirp>
But look! I am already making strides! The winged heart for a cute pig-tailed girl. Haven't used that cutter before! Don't have a cookie order for her yet, but I am ready for when the occasion comes!
3. Use time wisely. I am really good at procrastinating. I fondly think about one of Ellen DeGeneres' stand-up routines when she said "Procrastinate now, don't put it off". I can totally relate. So I am going to *try* to make better use of time. Just the other day, I had a few extra minutes and some extra white icing. So I made some plain ovals for future paint-the-cookie sets.
And wouldn't you know it? I used them right away! I guess I'll have to make more now. I'll do it tomorrow, you know, when I have time. Maybe.
By the way, this completely awesome paint-the-cookie technique is from Montreal Confections. Click here to see her video!
This completes my Vague Resolutions for 2014. I'd love to hear about your resolutions, so drop me a comment!
Thank you for following and supporting me on this crazy journey.
Here's to a Sweet 2014!
The Magic of Snowflakes
I think there is just something magical about snowflakes, especially when they first begin to fall. Maybe it's because I am from coastal mid-Atlantic where we may be bombarded by snow one year, and see two flakes the next winter. But when the air has that crisp "snow" smell, and those big snowflakes make that distinct sound when they hit the ground. . . it's just magical to me.
Even our Christmas elves- Howie and Buddy- think there's something magical about snowflakes. I suppose they watched the weather and saw that we weren't getting any snow for Christmas here on Maryland's Eastern Shore, and wanted to make sure my boys had snow for Christmas Eve. So they made lots of paper snowflakes, all shapes and sizes, and hung them from the ceiling near the tree. And if your elf is technology savy, he or she can find the online instructions (and videos too!) on how to make those big 3D snowflakes. You know, just in case they needed something else to do, besides having a marshmallow snowball fight in the kitchen or drawing faces with toothpaste on the bathroom mirror. Stupid elves, I wish they had a maid elf that traveled with them. . .
That brings me to snowflake cookies. Just like the real thing or the paper version, they can be simple or complicated, and all are sweet as can be! And you can make them all winter long- not just for the December holidays.
A Crabby Christmas, Hon!
"Oh, I want crabs for Christmas. Oh, only crabs will do. Oh, I want crabs for Christmas. My Christmas wish'll come true!". If you are from Maryland, you can thank me for getting this little Christmas diddy stuck in your head for the rest of the day. For those of you who are thinking "what on Earth?", here's the inside scoop: "Crabs for Christmas" is the holiday song written over 30 years ago by David DeBoy. In the song, a Maryland man is stuck in the Houston airport on Christmas Eve where he stumbles upon Santa. Desperately missing his Maryland home, he sits upon Santa's lap and wishes for something near and dear to many Marylanders' hearts- steamed Maryland Blue Crabs.
Since I had some leftover dough, and I had that song stuck in my head from hearing it on the radio, I thought it was the perfect time to make some special Maryland Christmassy cookies. Time to break out my crab cutters!
As I attempted to decide which cutter I would use for my Crabby Christmas cookies, I started to feel a little like Goldilocks.
Whoowee! That's a BIG crab. Too Big.
An itsy bitsy crab. Cute, but too small.
Just the right size! Score! Although the number of legs isn't anatomically accurate (the biologist in me was REALLY bothered by this), I made do with it. Mark my words: I WILL be ordering a specially made crab cutter by Plastics In Print- they make special order cookie cutters! Maybe I'll get a Maryland lighthouse too!
May these crabs bring memories of lazy summer days. . .
and bring sweetness to your holiday season.
And may you find something you love beneath your tree!
My crabby gift to you- My recipe for Maryland Crab Dip. Hope you like it!
Maryland Crab Dip
1 lb backfin crabmeat
2- 8oz cream cheese, softened
4 oz sour cream
1 tsp mayo
2 tsp mustard
1/2 tsp salt
1 TBL+ Old Bay Seasoning (it isn't Maryland crab dip without it!)
1 tsp worcestershire sauce
shredded cheddar cheese
Blend all ingredients EXCEPT the crab. I use a hand mixer- it's faster for me. Gently fold in the crab meat. Top with cheese. Bake in a 350F oven until warm throughout. Or be like me- I put my crab dip in one of those mini crock pots at the warm setting so that it can be enjoyed longer. Like nibbled on all day :) Just stir it often. Serve with baguette slices, or club crackers, or just eat it plain! Or even spoon it over grilled chicken for Chesapeake Chicken. Yummy!
Is there a holiday song that is applicable to your neck of the woods? Maybe there's a 'Have a Cheesy Christmas' song played in Wisconsin? Or maybe 'Rudolph the Rodeo Reindeer' in Texas? Tell me about it!
Ruffled Christmas Trees
I am the only female in my house, besides the cat. Since I am surrounded by football equipment, Legos, excessive bodily noises, and a wide array of strategically ditched socks, I sometimes long for delicate and frilly kinds of things. Since my cat wouldn't be too happy in me dressing her up in floral frocks, and my husband forbids pink ruffles in our bedroom, I sometimes have to make cookies that are, well, girlie. Even Christmas trees.
I must say that this design was a complete accident. I was in a hurry and wanted a quick green Christmas tree and it just happened. And I liked it. So then I decided to do it again, and even adding in a little pink flair. Let me show you!
To make ruffles on cookies, you need two things: really stiff icing, and a rose petal tip.
I turned the tree upside down, and piped the bottom branches first. You don't have to pipe it upside down, but I find that the ruffles lay nicer when I do. Start with the largest tip (the 104) and hold it so that the fat side of the tip is closest to the cookie and the decorating bag is at a 45 degree angle. Using an even amount of pressure, wiggle the bag as you pipe across the cookie.
After the first row of ruffle, immediately pipe the second row and allow the ruffles to overlap. If the icing is stiff enough, they will keep their shape and not fall into one another. Unless that's the look you are going for.
Now switch to the next sized smaller tip, the 103. Layer several more rows. You can mix it up by not wiggling the bag as much as you pipe. Finish it up by switching to the smallest petal tip, and layering the final ruffles.
Drop on a few sugar pearls, and add the tree base (although this should probably be done first, but I forgot).
Super fast, super cute! Mix it up by alternating colors, even ombre shades (which is on my to-do list this week).
Best of all, my boys will even eat them. And they're ruffles. Pink ones at that!
I'm Amy. Wife, Mom, former science teacher- and now full time cookie baker on Maryland's Eastern Shore. Pull up a chair and we create! I'll bring the coffee- maybe Mike (The Cookie Widower) will make it for us.

text: The No. 14 men's swim team finished its season Saturday, March 25 at the NCAA Championship meet at the Indiana University Natatorium in Indianapolis. The Cavaliers (5-2, 4-1 ACC) end the season on a high note, with many swimmers posting extremely fast times. No. 2 Texas won the NCAA Championship meet overall for the third straight year with a score of 542. No other team was even close — second place No. 1 California finished with a score of 349. Although Virginia did not place at the event, there are many positives to take away from the meet. Senior Austin Quinn finished 30th in the 200-yard backstroke and posted a career best time. Sophomore Zach Fong finished 31st and freshman Ted Schubert touched 32nd overall in the 200-yard butterfly, while freshman Joe Clark placed 35th in the 200-yard backstroke and freshman John Whiteside placed 36th overall at the meet. Virginia finished the meet with the 400-yard freestyle relay. Whiteside, junior Luke Georgiadis, sophomore Bryce Keblish and senior Matt Lockman finished the day in 25th place. Looking forward to next season, the Cavaliers have many strong pieces to build on. With many returning freshmen and sophomores, the team has a solid core of experience to work with from the very start. Although the end of the NCAA Championship meet means swim season is finished, many swimmers will compete in other competitions throughout the year, and all will participate in off-season practice.

In January we spent 20 days in Goa, India. Goa is located on the southwestern coast of India, and was a bit of a surprise. We had heard of stories of traveling in India and frankly, I was a bit nervous. Thankfully, Goa was an excellent introduction to India with it's clean beaches, good food, friendly faces, and ever present cattle and water buffalo!
While in Goa, Nancy attended school at the Vidya Aranya School, while Sharo and Jeff spent days along the beach, exploring the area on a rented scooter, and enjoying time alone. While in Goa, we were able to spend time with The Nomadic Family who were living in Goa for several months, as well as with Brad and Sheena from Drive Nacho Drive, who came down to visit us in our temporary home.

The Anticipated Pain
Monday, March 4, 2013
That anticipation is heightened when the distinctive sound of the machine signals its awakening. Waiting, with my breath held, is surreal and adrenaline surges through my body while I wait impatiently for that first light touch of the artist.
The feeling, along with the knowledge that ink is being injected beneath the first layer of my skin, is addicting.
For some, the art of tattooing is taboo, something only to be had by the lowest members of society, sailors, bikers, and the like. "No," they say time and time again, "you can't do that."
Well, yes, yes I can. We all have choices, and while I may make some another would not, they have made choices I would have not.
Although I have wondered, at times, if my longing for that distinctive feeling of the machine, the pain, against my skin is somehow connected, in the recesses of my memory, to self destructive deeds of the distant past. Of that, I'm not sure, I can only speculate.
I only know that I eagerly await the date, the time, and the minute, that the man will apply the stencil he drew especially for me. He firmly rubs it against my body and then removes the paper, leaving a faint outline, for approval.
It's not yet real, not until the singing of the machine lyrically fills the air and the enticing pain is felt as the permanent ink is deposited, and I breathe deeply and settle in for the endurance of the project.
There are times when a nerve is hit and I hold my breath, tighten my body and grimace, until the artist moves the machine, ever so slightly, to another position, another area. I sit in his chair for hours until the finishing touches are completed, and only then I'm able to see the finished piece of art, my art. It belongs to no one but me, and there will never be another one like it, the stencil is thrown away. The piece is unique, as am I.
For those that have words of scorn, I have no need. I am me, and I have confidence in who I am, and what I can accomplish with, or without, my embellishments.
|My first, and probably last, un-coverable piece

Our Renew / Cancel Index predicts potential renewal or cancellation for scripted broadcast primetime shows for the 2010-11 season (includes results through April 4, 2010):
- Likely To Be Canceled By May, 2010; Officially Canceled
- Some Danger Of Being Canceled By May, 2010
- Likely to Be Renewed For The 2010-11 Season
- Renewed For The 2010-11 Season
|Renew/ Cancel Index
|Miami Medical (F)
|Numb3rs (F), (P)
|Three Rivers (P)
|Medium (F), (P)
|New Adventures of Old Christine (S)
|Ghost Whisperer (F), (S)
|Gary Unmarried
|Cold Case (P)
|The Good Wife (P)
|Accidentally On Purpose (P)
|How I Met Your Mother (S)
|Criminal Minds (P)
|Rules Of Engagement
|NCIS: Los Angeles (P)
|The Mentalist
|CSI: Miami (P)
|Two And A Half Men
|Big Bang Theory
Normally, a 1.6 adults 18-49 rating for the Miami Medical premiere (even on a Friday) would have me marking it red for certain cancellation, but it did do so much better than both Ghost Whisperer and Medium (which were both down sharply) on the night, that I want to wait at least another week before putting a toe tag on it.
Accidentally On Purpose will air its first new Wednesday episode this week (it ran a repeat last week and did a tenth of a ratings point better than a repeat of Old Christine). How it does on Wednesdays could determine its fate. However, my guess based on the fate of Worst Week last season, is that it has a ratings hill to climb in order to survive.
CBS' record of few total failures means that shows with mediocre ratings are in danger because the network will want to premiere several hours of new shows next fall. The New Adventures of Old Christine, Gary Unmarried, Accidentally On Purpose, and Medium could all go either way depending on how CBS feels about its pilots, and/or its interest in continuing to be battered on Wednesday for a second comedy block.
While the numbers for Numb3rs have placed it in danger of cancellation from the beginning of the season, all the press surrounding its season finale leads me to believe that CBS will be canceling the show.
Cold Case is certain to be canceled. We have a few readers who trot out their laments every time it gets mentioned in one of our posts. While it's nice to have a hobby, may I suggest one that's more fulfilling, like knitting.
* I have frozen the Index for Three Rivers at the point it was removed from the CBS schedule.
I've added a new category, Renewed For The 2010-11 Season, for shows who's renewal has already been announced for the next season. It may take a while to get all the past announcements noted, let me know what I have missed, yet be patient.
This is a breakdown of CBS scripted shows and their renewal and cancellation prospects. Here are links to the other networks:
The Renew/Cancel Index is a show's Season To Date adults 18-49 rating divided by its network's Season to Date average 18-49 rating (in CBS's case I have removed the season effect of the week including the Super Bowl for the calculation). If a show's season to date 18-49 ratings average equalled its network's 18-49 average, the show would have an Index of 1.00. Without special factors, scripted shows that were more than 10% below their network's average are typically canceled by the end of the broadcast primetime season.
Factors that could cause a show to be renewed with well below average index:
- (F) -Fridays: Shows airing on Fridays have been renewed with significantly lower than average Indexes.
- (S) – Syndication: Shows nearing syndication (66-88 episodes), often have economic factors that trump ratings leading to renewal.
- (T) – Third Party: Shows that have a portion of their cost underwritten by a 3rd party can be renewed with substantially lower ratings.
- (P) – Produced by the network's production company – For shows on the bubble, being produced by the network's corporate production company can be a survival advantage. For real losers, it's unlikely to help.
What's the History of the Index and How Did It Do In the Past? Check out the results from the 2007-8 season and the 2008-9 season.

A 39 year old patient came to Amy hoping to achieve fuller lips, and also wanted to smooth out the parenthesis lines around her mouth. Amy suggested Volbella for her lips to give them a natural, but noticeably fuller look. She also suggested Juvederm to visibly smooth the nasolabial folds (parentheses lines). This patient loved her fuller pout and softened smile lines which she could see in the mirror immediately after her filler treatment was finished! This patient was so happy with the Juvederm and Volbella filler treatments she received from Amy! She plans on maintaining her beautiful results in the future here at Mountcastle Medspa.More

We are delighted to share with you that Wilhelm Research has released a report on ILFORD GALERIE inkjet papers detailing expected permanence for images. Three media types are tested – ILFORD GALERIE Gold Fibre Silk, ILFORD GALERIE Smooth Pearl, and ILFORD GALERIE Smooth Gloss. In all three cases the expected stability of prints framed under glass is over 200 years! Visit Wilhelm Research at www.wilhelm-research.com and download the full report!
"Products as permanent as these ILFORD offerings require very long test times, so while these media have not yet reached the first of our endpoint criteria, the tests have been in progress long enough for us to confidently give all three papers a greater than 200 year WIR Display Permanence Rating with HP Vivera Pigment Inks," said Henry Wilhelm, co-founder, president, and director of research at Wilhelm Imaging Research, Inc. Wilhelm expects these ratings to improve to even greater permanence ratings as the tests continue. He further adds that since these papers do not have optical brighteners they will resist yellowing which is also and important consideration when prints will be displayed for decades. Wilhelm Research, Inc. is a respected firm whose rigorous testing procedures are well known. We are delighted to bring these important new test results to you. CLICK HERE to download the full report.
"At ILFORD we strive to create the highest quality products in order to meet the demands of today's discerning professionals who rely on inkjet media," said Dr. Rita Hofmann, Director of Research and Development at ILFORD. "Our in-house research and development staff continues to develop [and] market leading products using the latest print technology. We are pleased that Wilhelm Research laboratory has independently verified the impressive permanence levels we have created."

#10 on my list of 26 before 26 was to hike another 14er. I can't believe a year has passed since we hiked our last 14er. Geeze, time. It flies, man.
Mt. Massive was an awesome endeavor. 14 miles round trip, 4500ft of elevation gain, summiting at 14,421ft above sea level.
We decided to make it a backpacking trip, so we could camp at treeline the night before summiting since it's a pretty long 14er. The best backpacking trips are ones spent with good friends. And I'm lucky to have these guys in my life.
The approach to the treeline was pretty strenuous. When you're up that high (10,000+ feet), carrying 30lb packs, you get out of breath pretty easily. I kind of love that; it's like high altitude cross training.
Cabo was so cute, scouting the trail a few meters ahead then running back to check on us.
It got dark quick and it started to drizzle a bit, so we hustled to find good ground to set up camp. Fortunately the rain passed, and we were able to hang out and enjoy dinner together before we got tired and crashed for the night.
This trip was only Cabo's third time sleeping in a tent, and the poor pup, she spooked pretty bad in the night. She woke us up at 12am and again at 4am, walking all over our sleeping bags, whining. She just wouldn't lay back down (it wasn't a potty thing either). And it took us about an hour+ both times to get her to calm down, lay down, and eventually rest. My 'mama' instincts definitely kicked in, and I didn't care so much about how tired I was, but more about letting Cabo know she was okay and we love her.
Anyhoo, in the morning we had our breakfasts, downsized to our summit packs, and struck out for the summit by 7am.
The weather was gorgeous. The morning was perfect.
Up up up we went. Took about 2:30 to get to the saddle from treeline.
Then 30 more fun, technical, scramble-y minutes along the ridge between the false summit and the true summit…
And we made it! Mt. Massive, 14,421 feet tall. Pure beauty.
It was pretty warm at the summit. The wind was brisk, but the sun was shining warm as we enjoyed our lunches with the views around us.
Cabo's first 14er! What a trooper! She had a blast.
The hike back to our camp was quick (love the descent),
.. we refilled our water bottles, then lounged at camp for a few hours. Including a delicious nap in my new fave accessory, my backpacking hammock (thanks, bro!). It was wonderful.
As per usual, I wanted to get a 'leaving camp' selftimer shot before we packed out. First attempt was a fail. It's a lot harder to run from a stump to the group in 10 seconds when you have a 25lb pack on your back. Ha.
And just like that, we were back on our way to our cars. What a great backpacking trip, another 14er complete (#7!). I had a blast! Thanks for the company, guys!
Colorad peeps, which 14ers have you done/which is your fave?

The good news is, once you get thru the first few months of dialysis, the stomach problems will probably go away. Mine did. I've got diabetic gastroparesis, and the higher my toxin levels got, the worse it got. I was taking reglan on a regular basis for a while there, trying not to throw up whatever I was eating. I haven't needed them much at all in the last few weeks - I think I've only taken one or two the whole time.In the meantime, try and keep track of what you're eating, and see what makes things the worst. You can avoid some things temporarily, until you start to feel better. I ate a lot of saltines and drank broth - two things that always helped settle my stomach. Hang in there!
Yes, warm dr. pepper will work! It just has to be a cola, it's something in there that settles it. Even now, ifI have an upset stomach, I take a coke/dr. pepper to settle it. Ginger ale, as jbeany noted is good too!Peppermints, as well as ginger, either in candy form or tea form would work as well.
shhhh. Don't tell anyone in the medical field...but when I have been sick, one of myfoods I eat to feel better is....McDonalds fries. It has to be McDonalds. I swear! Itworks!
PMP, I wish I did have suggestions on how to get ginger candy! I don't know, I had heard this, and knew from experience that ginger does work for nausea. I'll do some searching and see what I can find out for you!

1 8 oz package cream cheese
1 cup blueberries, fresh or frozen
12 eggs, beaten
2 cups milk
1 tsp vanilla
1 1/3 cups maple syrup
Powdered Sugar
Check your recipe. it says 8 oz package but tell us what. I know it cream cheeseReplyDelete
Although it does look delicious Danielle, there is virtually nothing healthy in it with the exception of the milk (unless you are using whole milk) and the fruit. It has FAR too many ingredients that are responsible for why so many people (including children) are overweight and developing type 2 Diabetes. If you break down this recipe, and if 4 people eat the whole thing in one sitting, that means each person is consuming 5oz of bread (starchy Carb.), 3 eggs, 1/3 cup maple syrup (sugar), and who knows how much powdered sugar. The amount of maple syrup per person will affect every person's glucose level. This recipe is truly a no no for anybody who is either trying to lose weight and/or watch their sugar/starch intake. I realize that you are trying to stay within your budget, but feeding the family ANYTHING that is high in sugar and starchy carbs is NOT a good idea. I also know (as a nurse) that one of the reasons that type 2 Diabetes has skyrocketed (especially in kids) is that they are getting less exercise than when you and I were kids, as well as their diet. We were told to "go outside and play", and these days kids are very sedentary and spending more time on the computer, playing video games, anything and everything that does NOT involve getting exercise. And with the economy the way it is, and everyone trying to stretch their dollar, foods that are made with ALOT of processed sugars and starchy carbs are are plentiful and cheap to buy. The more LOW carb foods that are also LOW in sugar (any ingredient that ends in "ose" means sugar of some type) you can feed your family the better. And I HAVE seen healthier recipes that you have posted on your site. BTW--LOVE your book!! Remember, less sugars and starchy carbs, and more play that involves exercise. Happy Holidays to you and your family!ReplyDelete
Thank you so much. I truly appreciate your comment and concern. This recipe definitely feeds more than four. We usually get about three meals out of it. This one is definitely a comfort food treat and not one we eat every week :)Delete
Good to hear that it feeds more than 4 people. BTW, I forgot to mention that I too have POCE, and was reading an article recently that states that women with POCE have a very high chance of developing something called "Metabolic Syndrome" (look it up),which in fact DOES lead to type 2 Diabetes. So, just another reason to be mindful of those starchy carbs and sugars!! After all, you DO want you AND your family to be healthy in the future as well, and I know that you would like more children. One of the best ways to protect your fertility, is to avoid those things which will make your condition worse (I know, I've been there)!Delete
Yummy, saving this.ReplyDelete
How many people does it feed? I need to make breakfast for about twenty people in a few days... So should I make three?ReplyDelete
Three would be perfect! :)Delete
This looks like a great Christmas Day breakfast!! Definitely putting it on our meal plan.ReplyDelete
Sounds amazing, I will be making this!ReplyDelete
We did end up making this for Christmas breakfast and it was a hit. One pan fed 6 adults and 2 kids and we had a few servings leftover. Definitely a new holiday tradition breakfast for us!ReplyDelete

Breaking news: UFC middleweight champion Anderson Silva still isn't a supporter of Chael Sonnen.
In an interview with SporTV, "The Spider," Sonnen's most notorious Octagon adversary, blasted the UFC's decision to have "The American Gangster" coach the next season of "The Ultimate Fighter" opposite Jon Jones (translation via Google Translate).
Think I have other athletes who deserved. Chael does his job very well ... But I think I have other athletes who might be vying for that title. Lyoto (Machida), Glover (Teixeira), (Antonio Rogerio) Nogueira and even Rafael (Cavalcante), that is the Strikeforce. They have all the conditions to face Jon Jones and even beat him.
Given that Chael has not fought at light heavyweight since UFC 55 in October 2005, a losing effort against Renato Sobral, it's tough to argue with Silva on this one (with the exception of Cavalcante who has never fought under the UFC banner).
Teixeira has won an incredible 17 fights in a row, including two stoppage wins inside the Octagon. Machida, a former champion at 205-pounds, is the only fighter to definitively win a round against Jones.
While "Lil' Nog" in undeniably past his prime, he has won eight of his past ten fights and, his losses came at the hands of top ten fighters Ryan Bader and Phil Davis.
Silva, who had to deal with many proverbial low blows during his feud with Sonnen, acknowledged that the American grappler's microphone skills can be a good thing for the sport of MMA.
But Chael Sonnen gets things that sometimes we cannot. It sells well, is a guy who knows how to make provocations. The American public likes these provocations, and it ends up selling.
In predicting the April 27 title bout between Jones and Sonnen, Silva gave a heavy endorsement to Jones.
"Jon Jones arrived at a level that few athletes are able to reach out and achieve," Silva said. "I don't see anyone in the UFC win in his category."
The pound-for-pound great is heavily rumored to next fight Georges St-Pierre if the welterweight champion defeats Carlos Condit at UFC 154, though the Brazilian is also warming up to a fight with Jones in the future.
Silva is fresh off a dominant first round TKO over Stephan Bonnar at UFC 153, a matchup that was contested at light heavyweight.

When founded in 1996, the aim of AMiCE was the exchange of experiences in hospital management on a practical, but informal level. Since then the activities of the network have also spread to other, more specific cooperations, such as indicator benchmarking or purchasing. Beside this, the network led to different bilateral and trilateral cooperation activities.
Each member has its own specialties. In order to develop projects within the specific topics and improve the exchange of knowledge and experience, it is necessary to bring together the experts in organised meetings – if possible with the help of EU subsidies.
The network therefore defined topics of interest that each member could take part in if interested and create excellence centres.
