Doctor Who Season 3 - "Daleks In Manhattan", "Evolution of the Daleks"
This two-parter was written by "Doctor Who" scriptwriter, Helen Raynor (she's the first female writer of any "New Who" episodes), turning in her first ever "Doctor Who" scripts.
Daleks in Manhattan
The Doctor and Martha land in New York City in 1930, where people are disappearing from Hooverville, a miniature city where the homeless live in the middle of Central Park. The trail to find the missing people leads them into the sewers beneath Manhattan where they encounter a group of men who've been transformed into pig slaves – and the Doctor discovers that the Daleks, who have some sort of diabolical plan for the Empire State Building, are behind it all.
The Daleks of this story are the four remaining members of the Cult of Skaro (Skaro is the planet on which the Daleks originated). The Cult has been created to come up with imaginative ways of surviving (imaginative being the operative word here - Daleks generally don't have much use for imagination), and they are the only four survivors of the Battle of Canary Wharf that we saw in the season 2 two-part finale "Army of Ghosts"/"Doomsday" - the four escaped the Battle by using an "emergency temporal shift" - which lands them in New York in 1930. They've decided that the way to survive is to create Dalek-Human hybrids through genetic experimentation. One of the four Cult members, Sec, assimilates the man who's been helping them to prepare the Empire State Building for their project. He becomes a very weird looking man with a tentacled head and one eye (above left), and rather odd, misshapen hands.
Evolution of the Daleks
After Sec becomes the first Dalek-Human he's ready to implement his plan to create an army of Dalek-Humans to remake Earth into New Skaro. But the "human factor" has unexpected effects on Sec, leading him to alter his plans and enlist the Doctor's help as an ally, a move that makes his fellow Daleks uneasy (to the extent that two of them have a conversation in the sewer that leads to one of them looking over its "shoulder" - metaphorically since Daleks don't have shoudlers! - in a beautifully realised moment of Dalek paranoia that made me laugh out loud).
From Sec's slow development of something that approaches human compassion because of his human side, to the army of Dalek-Humans questioning their orders with a straightforward "Why?", this episode has some surprising moments that make it the stronger of the two. It's also surprising that Sec keeps a bloodthirsty Dalek from killing the Doctor – who at that point is actively shouting at the Dalek to kill him. David Tennant's increasingly multilayered performance as the Doctor is a joy to behold. The Doctor's horror and near-suicidal anger at the death of Solomon is astonishing, as is his confusion and dawning hope at Sec's gentle ascent into humanity. Martha gets some great moments in this episode, including a heartbreaking conversation with Tallulah over the times when, as the Doctor looks at her, she knows "he's just remembering" Rose. Freema Agyeman plays this moment with such anguish that it's enough to make me want Martha to have a lot more screen time than she's actually got so far this season.
My biggest disappointment with the second episode was when the single surviving Dalek (Caan) from the Cult of Skaro does another of those blinking "emergency temporal shifts" and disappears again - though I confess I was relieved that the Doctor didn't shout "Caaaaaaaaaaaaaaannnnnnnnnnnn" after him!
One of my favourite bits was the Doctor discussing the use of music "Music. You can dance to it, sing with it, fall in love to it" - at which point he stares into the eyestalk of one of the Daleks and it "blinks" (closes and then opens the "shutter" in its eyestalk) - which is a fabulous little moment.

High Energy Ball Mill Emax
The Emax is an entirely new type of ball mill for high energy milling. The unique combination of high friction and impact results in extremely fine particles within the shortest amount of time. The high energy input is a result of an unrivaled speed of 2000 min-1 and the optimized jar design. Thanks to the revolutionary cooling system with water, the high energy input is effectively used for the grinding process without overheating the sample. Due to the special grinding jar geometry, the sample is thoroughly mixed which results in a narrow particle size distribution.
Unlike other high energy ball mills, the Emax is capable of continuous grinding operation without interruptions for cooling down. This dramatically reduces the grinding time. The high energy input in combination with the unique cooling system provides perfect conditions for effective mechanical alloying or grinding down to the nanometer range.
A wealth of safety features such as the integrated safety closure of the grinding jar, temperature control with automatic start/stop system, and integrated imbalance controls make operation of the bench-top mill Emax very user-friendly.
- faster and finer grinding than any other ball mills
- speed of 2000 min-1 allow for ultra-fast pulverization of the sample
- water cooling permits continuous operation without cool down breaks
- temperature-controlled grinding
- narrow particle size distribution thanks to special jar design which improves mixing of the sample
- patented drive concept

Collecting in the Vale
I caught In Our Time yesterday with Dan Hicks and Richard Bradley talking about Victorian archaeologist, anthropologist and collector Augustus Pitt-Rivers which reminded me of the recent publication of a volume on the world archaeology collections in the Pitt-Rivers Museum in Oxford. Whilst focussing primarily on the overseas ethnographic collections, it also reviews the local collections. I was intrigued how relatively little from the region ended up in the museum, with the Vale being represented only by a few minor objects from Uffington and Sparsholt. I suspect though that the majority of archaeological material from Oxfordshire ended up in the Ashmolean- I'm not entirely clear how far the collections policy of the two institutions were harmonised, particularly in the later 19th and earlier 20th centuries. One of the things I need to do at some point is explore the Pitt-Rivers Museums excellent "The Other Within" proejct which reviewed their English ethnographic (as opposed to archaeological) holdings, with a view to getting my head round the material from the Vale. However, it got me thinking more widely about the history of collecting ethnographic material from the Vale. There are obviously a number of museums in the Vale, such as the Vale and Downland Museum in Wantage, the Champs Chapel Museum at East Hendred and the Tom Brown School House museum in Uffington- though I know very little about their history and the development of their collections. One collection that I do know more about is the Lavinia Smith collection which is now in the wonderful Museum of English Rural Life in Reading. Lavinia Smith was American by birth but spent much of the first half of the 20th century living in East Hendred where she built up a collection of over 400 items connected to rural life in the village. There is a nice blog posting from MERL about it here. The picture is from the Lavinia Smith collection of images still held in East Hendred - reminds me of the shop window at the beginning of Bagpuss.

These type of portmanteau films seldom work out as well as does this one.
Olmi's first piece is certainly the most substantial and subtle of the film's three episodes, but it is also strangely the least engaging, with a pace that recalls the endless delays of British Rail rather than the more efficient services on the continent
Worth cherishing.
full review in Greek
This is a marvelous character study, a terrific exercise in cinematic storytelling, and one of the year's best films.
More benign than Three...Extremes and less uneven than Eros, Tickets offers a triptych of slender yet genuine delights.
A compelling look at the lives of normal people on a moving train: while the first story is the weak link and the second lacks a more satisfying conclusion, the movie hits the mark with the last one and proves to be a delightful omnibus film made by three great directors.
Super Reviewer
"Tickets" is remarkable for an omnibus movie as the segments directed by Ermanno Olmi, Abbas Kiarostami and Ken Loach are all set on the same plane of reality of one train heading south from Vienna to Rome. Like most other omnibus movies, it is wildly uneven with the best segment being the first by Ermanno Olmi which transcends the message of the need to make connections:
An old professor(Carlo Delle Plane) is infomred by a younger assistant(Valeria Bruni Tedeschi) that all flights have been canceled and that he will have to take a train back to his native Italy. On the train, he thinks back to her kindness in making the necessary reservations and guiding him through the train station, made more difficult by the presence of miltary troops. By moving at a slower pace, the professor actually has the time to decompress, think, reflect and take in his surroundings, as the chronology is scrambled to follow the pattern of his thoughts, perfectly capturing the essence of train travel.
Abbas Kiarostami joins the train in Italy the following morning, as calm has descended. However, things are about to heat up with new passengers including an older woman(Silvana De Santis) and her young companion, Filippo(Filippo Troiano). On an already full train, a microcosm of the real world where peaceful resolution is key, she refuses to cooperate twice with her fellow passengers, causing trouble, even when she is right.
Nearing Rome, Ken Loach brings a bit of Scotland on board with Jamesy(Martin Compston), Frank(William Ruane) and Spaceman(Gary Maitland), three supermarket workers traveling all the way to Rome to cheer on their favorite soccer team in a Champions League game. The guys are soon confronted by the possibility that there may be more important things in the world than their favorite sport, as stereotypes are shattered all around.
There are no approved quotes yet for this movie.

Math Nerdery
Well, perhaps the title is not quite accurate. More precisely, I'll be revealing my logic and philosophy nerdery, though this is one of those subjects where the three fields blend together (as they so often do).
I've been reading (really just looking through it before giving it a good read) Types, Tableaus, and Gödel's God. It requires at least a familiarity with symbolic logic, though it provides a number of introductory chapters to cover symbolic logic and modal logic, knowledge of which is necessary to understand the argument. The subject of the book is Kurt Gödel's version of the hoary ontological argument for the existence of God. Good stuff.

Apparently that chapter was missing from the coupsters copy of the book.
From Eater San Francisco:
Employees at Vegan Food Startup Hampton Creek Staged Coup, Company Claims
It failed, and they got canned
San Francisco vegan food startup Hampton Creek fired three top employees after learning of an alleged coup attempt, company representatives announced. The reportedly secret effort to give new investors more power in the Silicon Valley unicorn didn't fly with its CEO and controlling shareholder Josh Tetrick, a sometimes controversial leader who's had egg on his face during past scandals.
Previously on Hampton Creek:"This morning, our co-founder and CEO Josh Tetrick, shared the sad news with our team that three senior managers have been terminated for attempting to change our company's corporate governance," representatives wrote in a statement.Known for vegan salad dressings, cookie dough, and condiments like "Just Mayo," Hampton Creek was an early venture capital darling. It's raised $239 million in funding at a valuation of more than $1 billion from the likes of Khosla Ventures and Peter Thiel's Founders Fund.But recent funding efforts have been less successful, and last month the company fired its chiefs of finance, operations, and HR. It's now parted ways with three more senior staff members — Chief Technology Officer, V.P. of research and development, and V.P. of business development — over their alleged coup....MORE

I must say this month has been action packed for me. I kept myself busy in various activities and learnt few good & new things. I think this is the mantra of happiness- keep yourself busy and learn something new.
I have always been a great admirer of all Indian art forms . It was my dream to explore and learn about various Indian Arts and that's what I am doing these days. Let me share my happiness with you all wonderful people who always keep encouraging me by reading, commenting and liking my every post. Recently I learnt about 'Warli Art' and found that it's not only the simplest art form but looks magical too.
Earlier I had done Warli art only on a small pot but this time I tried it on paper with all the details and tried to depict social life of Warli tribes.
Here is my first Warli painting. Theme is wedding.

The Ghosts of Ukraine
A year after the first protests in Kiev's Maidan Square, the stakes in Ukraine are high, and increasingly more dangerous. The protests began in November 2013 after then president Victor Yanukovich backed down on a decision to sign a partnership deal with the European Union. In an abrupt turnabout, Yanukovich signed an accord with Russia for a $15-Billion bailout to help Ukraine's ailing economy. Continue Reading »

Today was our first port day , St. Thomas, US Virgin Islands. While there were plenty of shore excursion activities from which to choose including beach get-a-ways, snorkeling, island tours and sea life experiences, we choose to enjoy the near empty ship for most of the day, only getting off briefly to pick up some souvenirs in the nearby shopping plaza. I'm not sure when this plaza was built, but it certainly wasn't there the last time I was in St. Thomas over 30 years ago. However, it seemed to be just like many of the stores that we might have visited 30 years ago right in town. We got some goodies for our kids including a variety of T-shirts and a Caribbean cook book for my aspiring chef daughter.
Again one the things I enjoy about cruising is that one can do as much or as little as one wants. I like to stay up for the ship's night life, but I am not really a night owl at home so an afternoon nap is usually pretty easy to accomplish on a cruise ship, especially with so many of the passengers ashore, it makes for a pretty quiet time on board.
I had forgotten about the previous nights time change and thought I had over an hour to get ready for the free cocktail our offered to Celebrity's most loyal passengers, the elite cocktail party held near nightly in the ship's sky lounge. Dress for this event is smart casual, so no flip fops, swim suits or shorts. For me it really was a matter of getting quickly dressed for dinner and then I head off for this event. We enjoyed visiting with other couples who frequently cruise Celebrity and had both diet cokes and wine. We left the event a few minutes early to take in the sun set sail away from the lawn club and aft bar.
We were not disappointed as this area of the ship afforded some beautiful views of St. Thomas and its harbor. We had live music in the form of Jerry B, a one man steel band who played beautiful tropical music.
After the sail away I enjoyed listening the ship's production singers and orchestra perform "Motown Favorites in the atrium area. This was an opportunity for the singers to really show their singing ability with-out having to perform with-in the confines of what can sometimes be "over produced†variety shows. Here the singers and dancers too could really let loose, inter act with the audience and have a lot of fun with some classic Motown and R & B songs like "Aint to proud to begâ€, "My Girlâ€, "Oh Baby give me one more chance†and "Proud Maryâ€.
We were then off to dinner where I enjoyed very much my second course Lobster Ravioli. Everthing else was pretty darn good too, but that ravioli really stood out.
We had plans to see the comedian Steve Caouette again at the smaller Celebrity Central theater, but we had about 45 minutes before the start of the show so we headed up to the sky lounge. This got my husband into trouble. They were having the "Dancing With the Stripes†a kind of Dancing With the Stars competition, yet instead of profession dancers they had the ship's officers lined up to pick partners from volunteer passengers and compete in a dance off. I have never laughed so hard because my husband doesn't dance and neither did his partner,…. really. They fumbled through a Marimba, Jive, and Waltz and then got eliminated in the first set of eliminations. I wish they could have stayed through the next round where the dancers were required to perform Classical Ballet, Bollywood and a Tango. It was a lot of impromptu fun.
Since my husband was eliminated early from the competition we were able to make the comedy show. Again the comedian had some set jokes, but mostly just played off the interaction with the audience. It was a great way to cap off a long but enjoyable day.

Scroll to bottom of story to see Northridge Felt's Facts
Note: Northridge High finished with an 8-4 overall record and was second in Region 1 with a 4-1 record in 2011. It lost to Lone Peak, 21-14, in the 5A quarterfinals.
LAYTON — Erik Thompson is a talkative, glass-is-always-at-least-half-full kinda guy.
So when he starts talking about his Northridge High football team, the Knights' ninth-year head coach has such enormous energy, enthusiasm and passion for the game and for his kids — despite this year's lack of size, depth and experience — that you can't help but get pretty excited about the upcoming season yourself.
"You're always nervous about those things — like a lack of returning starters, a lack of size — all the things that every coach worries about," Thompson said. "But I'm really excited as well. That's the great thing, I think, about high school football is that every year there's such great turnover that the team takes on a whole different personality and new leaders emerge. So it's fun to see that happen. The anticipation and the excitement to see what we can become is always there with me.
"Most people would think 'What are you (thinking) this year?' We only have a few returning starters and we lost a lot of really good players that had started for two or three years. So maybe to an outsider it could be a rebuilding year for Northridge or a year that maybe we're going to struggle a little bit.
"It might take a couple of games, but by the time region rolls around, I think we can become very competitive," he said. "We plan on competing for the region championship just like everybody else. Our kids are determined to make that happen and I think after a couple of games we'll compete with anybody, and that's all you can ask for is to have a shot on any given day."
Though it's true that the Knights lost a lot of firepower from last year's team that reached the 5A quarterfinals, one of the few returnees they do have is a great one in senior running back Davy Adams. The 5-foot-9, 180-pound performer played like a man possessed last season when he carried the ball 177 times for 1,217 yards and 12 touchdowns and hauled in 57 passes for another 785 yards and eight more TDs on his way to earning all-state honors.
"He might be the best overall football player in the state," Thompson said. "If he didn't get so tired on offense, he'd be one of the best defensive players in the state as well, but we spell him a little bit over there.
"He's ultra, ultra competitive — one of the most competitive kids I've ever met —super smart, has a great feel for the game, just a good leader and a good athlete. He's got it all and it's his mission to go win a region championship with his group after everyone's graduated.
"I think he senses that people don't think we'll be that good this year," the Knights' coach added, "so sometimes having a little chip on your shoulder or having a little extra motivation is not a bad thing. I'm very thankful to have him."
Other running backs who will help spell Adams in the backfield are senior Dallin Isaacson, who suffered a broken elbow last season, sophomore Dayan Lake and senior fullback Eliyah Mayberry, a transfer from Layton Christian Academy who Thompson said, if his variance is approved, could bolster the Knights' fortunes.
"The strength of our team is running back," Thompson said. "... I feel really blessed there and we have had a great tradition of great running backs here for a long time.
"Isaacson is the strongest kid on our team, and he's as mean and tough as they get. He'll hit ya right in the mouth. Lake, for his age group, might be the best athlete in Northern Utah if not Utah. He's got phenomenal speed, strength, and he'll start at defensive back again and we expect to get him the ball on offense."
Stepping in to start at quarterback is junior Nate Kusuda, who has some big shoes to fill following the graduation of Karson Casteel who, like Adams, had an absolutely stellar season for the Knights last year.
"He's had two brothers who started and played quarterback here," Thompson said of Kusuda. "He's a super-smart kid who understands the offense. He's very meticulous; he's accurate, and he'll bring some different things than other quarterbacks have.
"He's had a good offseason, and he's much more prepared and accurate now. ... I'm confident he can do the job for us and we can definitely win with him."
Senior wideout Zach Hayes leads the receiving corps, and Thompson is impressed with the young man's work ethic and development.
"That kid might be the hardest-working kid I've ever met," Thompson said. "He's absolutely blown up with his speed and his strength. He's got a great attitude and he's a great leader. So I expect big things for him this year; he'll start at both wide receiver and defensive back, where he started last year.
"In our summer 7-on-7 stuff, he has proven to be one of best receivers in the state. He's been a great playmaker for us, and he's an extremely fast, tough, physical kid."
Joining Hayes at wide receiver are juniors Houston Lacey, Brock Cleverly and Robert Crawford.
At tight end, juniors Jace Colby and Austin Ricks will split duty and are "really athletic," Thompson said.
But on the offensive line, the Knights "lost every single person that played much at all," according to their head coach.
Junior Beau Ballard will start at tackle or guard, with seniors Jace Palmer, Peter Clark, Colby Peterson, Joey Dean and Keoni Dellermann all seeing playing time there along with junior Darren Alexander.
"One of the biggest things we've got to figure out is who our starting five are going to be, get 'em gelling and find some backups," Thompson said. "That's our biggest question mark.
"I've got the best O-line coach in the state in coach (Mike) Martini. We're small and undersized there but they all run well and they're tough. I'm confident that eventually we can be pretty decent right there. It's just going to be a work in progress."
Over on defense, the view from the tradition-rich 'Ridge sees a secondary with blazing speed, but they're thin at linebacker and completely devoid of experience on the D-line.
"I feel the strongest about our secondary," Thompson said. "I've got four or five kids that can run a 4.5 40, so we've got some speed back there. The problem is that most of them play both ways."
The defensive backfield features seniors Chaston Martinez, Hunter Johnson, Adams and Lake at cornerback, with Hayes, Adam Wilson, Lacey and Bergman battling for the three safety spots.
At linebacker, Isaacson, Ricks and Mayberry lead the way, while Jayden Bair is recovering from a torn meniscus in his knee. "I feel like we have four good athletes there, but they all play both ways and one is hurt right now," Thompson said. "That's definitely a concern finding some depth at linebacker.
"On the D-line, we lost everybody, but for first time ever we have about 12 D-linemen that can contribute. We have some depth but are a little undersized."
Ballard and Dellermann both saw time last year at defensive end and Thompson is confident they can contribute along with Dean and Chaz Gray.
At defensive tackle, the Knights have "no experience whatsover there," Thompson says, making it the second-biggest worry after the O-line. He's depending on seniors Liam Torres, Kyle Carr and Adam Stillman to carry the load.
And while their lack of size and experience might be cause for alarm in some programs, Thompson maintains the utmost confidence in his kids and his coaching staff that they'll make the most of their situation and good things will come their way.
"One of the funnest things as a coach is to see kids develop and have fun and find joy in football and get better and do things that maybe they didn't think they could do or others didn't think they could do," Thompson said. "I expect to be picked at the bottom of the region, and understandably so with not many guys coming back and a lot of question marks. But our coaches and the players are determined to make a run at the region and I think we can do that.
"The thing that lets me go to sleep at night is I knowing I've been fortunate to surround myself with a great staff — great assistants who do a phenomenal job developing players and motivating kids. There's a reason Northridge has been pretty good every year for some time, and it's not me — it's great assistants.
"I only can do so much and really the assistants are the heart of any football program. ... I really feel fortunate that the coaching staff at Northridge right now is as good as I've ever had. I have great assistant coaches who work their butts off, who are dedicated and come prepared every day. I really feel that the player development at Northridge is equal to anybody in the state and we're able to take kids that are smaller and don't have much experience and help them become good high school football players.
"I'm confident with the coaching staff that I have, and with the good attitudes and hard-working kids that I have, by the time we hit region, I think we're going to surprise some people," Thompson said. "We're definitely not going to fear anybody, and we respect everybody, but we're excited for the challenge. ... I feel confident by the time we do hit region we'll compete with anybody. That's what makes it fun. If you play well, you have a chance to win and that gets you excited as a competitor — to see if you can go compete and win.
"I know my kids are going to play hard. I know my kids are going to compete. I know my kids care about each other. We're going to prepare. Whether we're good enough or not, we'll find out — and that's part of the excitement as well."
Northridge Knights at a glance
Coach: Erik Thompson begins his ninth season as the Knights' head coach. He has compiled a 55-32 record in eight seasons at the school. He is a graduate of Roy High.
(4 returning starters; Multiple-formation offense)
Davy Adams is one of the best running backs in the state, both carrying the ball and making receptions out of the backfield, and Dallin Isaacson, and possibly Eliyah Mayberry will join him as potential playmakers there. Nate Kusuda takes the reins of the offense at quarterback, and Zach Hayes, Houston Lacey, Brock Cleverly, Robert Crawford, Jace Colby and Austin Ricks give him plenty of targets to throw the ball to. However, the development of a small and inexperienced offensive line may determine how many points the Knights can put up on the scoreboard.

The secondary is the Knights' strong suit, with Adams, Hayes, Chaston Martinez, Hunter Johnson, Dayan Lake, Adam Wilson, Lacey and Bergman providing plenty of quickness at the cornerback and safety spots. But the linebacker corps, led by Isaacson and Ricks, is razor thin, and the D-line, though boasting ample depth, lacks size and experience — much like its O-line counterpart.
Coaches preseason Region 1 straw poll: Third
Deseret News Region 1 prediction: Third
Bottom line: The Knights' success hinges on their ability to develop their offensive and defensive fronts into cohesive units during preseason play. They have plenty of playmakers on offense, and their secondary should be strong. But it's true that it's what's up front that counts, and that will hold the key once league play gets under way. Circle Sept. 29 (at home against Syracuse) and Oct. 12 (at Davis) as key dates on the Northridge calendar.

While it is commonplace to do charity as well as donate rice wreaths, or donate your talents to commemorate the birthday or showcase, concert etc. of the celebrity you like, instances where you do so for the neighborhood (community) to observe a national holiday are few. However the love of these fan clubs who are giving to neglected, needy people in the community under the star's names for our country's biggest national holiday, Lunar New Year, has attracted attention.
On February 4th one of TVXQ's U-Know Yunho's fan clubs, DAUM STRAWBERRY PRINCE, donated 200 million KRW for the low income families, elderly living alone, in Yangju city. Currently U-Know Yunho is serving his military service as part of the army band din the army's 26th merchandised infantry division based in Yangju.
The Yangju city representative said, "We hope that our beautiful and precious ties with U-Know Yunho who is currently serving his military service in our area will continue," expressing their gratitude.

Chronicles of a Business Journalist | Believer of the African Dream | Mother | Lover of Live| Poet
Monday, June 29, 2009
If you have kept up with me here in my blog journey, you know this already: I have a very short attention span with things that are constant.
I know that this can easily be confused with inconsistency especially in blogosphere where brand building is not just an option, but THE mantra. I love to see things from a different angle. I have changed the look and feel of this blog countless times, because I am looking for something I am yet to find.
I get tired of status-quo, at home, at work, with my food, my look ...everything. I even get tired of seeing myself in the mirror; looking the same way, everyday. Being on leave (or off duty this past week) gave me lots of time to re think, re focus, realize my potential in every way I could think of. I even got contact lenses:-). Hazel ones; that gave me a new reason to stare at myself in the mirror, I am told that can be classified as vanity, but I am a woman, it is expected under the feminine dynamics pie chart.Oh..and i drank cappucino, even if I swear by Mocha.
Well, I think my blog will remain as is...for now :-) ( little tongue out.)
This past Saturday, I went for Aly Khan Satchu's "Mindspeak" (here) at Westgate, (and forgot to wear my contacts!!) where Graham Gilmour, CEO The Business Phone,(website here) was speaker.
I try to take a break at least once every six months to re-charge, I hate feeing counter productive, usually it gives me great satisfaction to put my heart into my work, I love giving 120% to whatever I do, and feel extremely wasted when I don't do that. So Saturday morning, I woke up and was looking forward to the monthly event: It was in many ways a turn around for me
The 30 min session by Graham Gilmour almost got me shooting off my seat into a corner office over looking the Himalayas.....ok, that's over stating it, but it was a chance to look at what we make out of life:
We are all in the business of selling, ourselves, products, service…if you make money, then you are selling something:
Here's a few pointers that I'd like to share which I picked out from Grhams presentation:
Third party story:
Use the third person to sell. "When I sold this Prada bag to Caroline Mutoko, she ordered for 5 more in different designs"(example is pure fiction) but I hope you get me drift.
Never Pre Judge a contact:
Graham once sold (owned the company actually) luxury boats in Australia and almost missed a 17% commission on 2 luxury boats when a young "ginger haired" boy walked in to enquire on the super boats.His employees were out having a beer, he stayed on to listen to this "kid" Ginger bought two boats; he had just won the lottery.
Recognize an opportunity when you see one.
Always look for opportunities where everyone sees gloom:I met Graham afterwards and asked this: When entrepreneurs are starting off, should they do what they love to do or, like him find an opportunity? Graham looked for opportunities and put his all in it. He sold houses, ran a hotel that was bankrupt, and now sells the Business Phone.(www.businessphone.com)
Debt is good. (Personal debt)
Gets us into trouble, but it makes you wake up in the morning with a target in mind.
Set targets
Know what you want, a great home, great car, great family: then work backwards from there.
Do your research well:
For Instance, now that Fiber is landing in Kenya, look out for what business models made it big when fiber optic hit other continents. Countless Oportunities.
You don't get a second chance at first impressions:
This is self explanatory. A friend came in this afternoon off to meet a potential new employer; I asked her if she was going home to change. First Impressions happens once. Take advantage of it. This is from how you dress to how to make your pitch.
Surround yourself with successful people:
You are who you hang out with & the more you communicate with people, the more opportunities you find. Period.
Ultimate confidence:
Faith, Courage & enthusiasm. These are three things you must carry with you every single day. Someone has to like you to listen to you, to buy from you, to work with you. Believe in yourself, you will either sell, or starve. You make that choice.
This may seem a writing targeted to entrepreneurs, which I am not currently, but made me re think the amount of energy we give whatever it is we work for, or work at. It made a lot of sense for me that morning, as it does now, and it will for a long time. We are who we want to be, it's up to us to chart that way forward, whether employed or an employee, put your best foot forward, it is the first step to success.

Sometimes I meet up with a friend.
The Avon Gorge in the photo above is a picture I took looking down from one of my Thursday walks before my hip started to hurt. I hurt my back and hip while trying to push Harry along our awful pavements in a wheelchair about six weeks ago. I won't be doing that again and I'm still having a lot of pain from it.
I've recently started going to a Carer's course run by our local Hospice. The course is only for a few weeks and I've met people with similar and also very different situations. It does help to share and we all have similar feelings. I realise that compared to some I am very lucky. It must be awful to look after a young person with *locked in* syndrome, as one in the group has to do ....... maybe for years and years.
There is always someone in a very much worse position than myself.
I think the group does help me in that respect.
I am not alone with it.

We're very excited about joining together with other garden bloggers for "Thursday's Kitchen Cupboard"! Won't it be great to know a little bit more about what actually happens to all those great harvests we see? At our place, the harvest always goes straight to Belle! She's the work horse around here. And boy does she know how to bring it to the table! Sometimes she cans. Sometimes she dries. Sometimes she brings it straight to the table. I look forward to sharing her work with you. If I remember to ask her for the recipe, I'll share that too! From our cupboard to you, this is what Belle's been up to this week.
On Monday we went to the local farm auction and picked up 3 boxes of Gala apples for a really great price. Belle has dried several baggies of them, and yesterday she made apple butter!
Apple Butter Recipe
12 apples
3 cups apple cider
3/4 cup brown sugar
1 teaspoon cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
1/4 teaspoon clove
1 cinnamon stick
1 generous squeeze of fresh lemon
1/2 lemon rind grated
Core and slice the apples. Mix apples with apple cider and cook on medium heat for about 15 minutes or until mushy. Separate the skins from the apple pulp with that hand held thing-a-ma-jig pictured above. Blend the mixture in a food processor. In a crock pot add the sugar, spices, lemon juice and rind to the apple sauce, and slow cook until the sugar caramelizes. Spoon a bit out and place on a cold plate. If the liquid does not separate from the apple butter, then it's done! Give the pints a 10 minute water bath, then you're done.
This week we also harvested and dried a couple of pounds of wild honey mushrooms. They are larger than white mushrooms, but smaller than portabellas they are similar in texture to portabella, maybe a little softer, and they have a beautiful golden brown color... like honey! They taste wonderful.
|Wild honey mushrooms we found in the woods behind our house.
Finally, for dinner one night Belle made chicken corn tortillas with the salsa verde she canned earlier this year. We also had pickled jalapenos and sweet potato fries fresh from the garden. Yummy!
Please stop by The Gardener of Eden and see what other people are preserving for the Cupboard and preparing for the table.

Medical questions & health advice by board certified doctors
"Is it completely safe to donate blood?"
We?re having a blood drive at my work next week and I want to take part. I?ve given blood for the doctor, but never donated blood. Are there any risks involved? Could I get sick or an infection from giving blood?
Donating blood is a common and essential practice to help provide life-sustaining medical care for many patients. The general answer to your question is that donating blood is quite safe. The donation process includes several steps including a focused medical history and a check of your temperature, pulse, blood pressure and hemoglobin. If for some reason you are feeling unwell when you go to donate the center will ask to defer your donation until another time. This is done both to protect the patient receiving blood and the donor from giving blood during an acute illness, which may be harmful. If your vital signs are normal and your hemoglobin level is at an appropriate level you will be allowed to donate assuming your medical history is unremarkable. The hemoglobin level is checked to ensure that the donor is not anemic and that donating blood will not make the donor anemic. After this the process is fairly quick, lasting only 8-10 minutes. Sterile needles and clean technique are used making infection vanishingly rare. Rarely, donors may feel faint or dizzy, but this usually passes quickly. Afterwards donors are encouraged to drink plenty of fluids and rest for 10-15 minutes while the body accommodates the new blood volume. Your body will replace the lost plasma (fluid portion of blood) in about 24 hours and will replace the red blood cells in about 4-6 weeks. The day you donate you'll be asked to avoid strenuous exercise, but you can otherwise perform the rest of your daily activities. You should ask your primary care physician for more information about how this affects you. Good luck!

I edit for a living. I write for a living too. I used to teach English for a living.
But I blog for fun. And, as a result, I
Occasionally, my sister will text me and point out a spelling mistake (when she reads my blog...so, like, once every three months). ONE TIME a complete stranger emailed me re: an error in my post and I was mortified. For the next week I tried to watch more carefully but I got over that rather quickly.
You'll find mistakes here. Sometimes big ones. You'll find unsubstantiated thoughts and ideas. You'll find insights that sometimes sound stupid (even to me, should I dare go back to my 2009 posts...what was I thinking???). Sometimes I come off as a total douche. Sometimes I come off as a whiner. Sometimes I come off as a person who was unlikely to have passed Grade 11 English given all the errors in my posts (for the record I have two university degrees. Oof.)
I guess the point I'm trying to make is that this space is purely for fun- maybe a bit of writing practice, maybe a bit of cheap therapy, maybe a bit of egotistical self-indulgent back-patting, and maybe a bit of a place where I can whine and complain uninterrupted.
But it's not my writing portfolio. Nor is it indicative of my editing abilities (I'm good, I swear!). It's just my little space- that hopefully doesn't have my name attached to it very often.

In recent years statistical physics has made significant progress as a result of advances in numerical techniques. While good textbooks exist on the general aspects of statistical physics, the numerical methods and the new developments based on large-scale computing are not usually adequately presented. In this book 16 experts describe the application of methods of statistical physics to various areas in physics such as disordered materials, quasicrystals, semiconductors, and also to other areas beyond physics, such as financial markets, game theory, evolution, and traffic planning, in which statistical physics has recently become significant. In this way the universality of the underlying concepts and methods such as fractals, random matrix theory, time series, neural networks, evolutionary algorithms, becomes clear. The topics are covered by introductory, tutorial presentations.Hoffmann, K. -H is the author of 'Computational Statistical Physics From Billiards to Monte-Carlo' with ISBN 9783540421603 and ISBN 3540421602.[read more]

Teach Phonological Awareness.
This is the ability to identify and manipulate sounds within spoken words. For example, say the word bat without the /b/ sound. Unfortunately, may struggling readers struggle with phonological awareness. To develop proficiency, they need instruction.
- Good phonics instruction should develop phonological awareness. The key to learning to decode words is the [alphabetic] principle that letters can represent sounds
- The key to the development of the alphabetic principle, word recognition, and invented spelling is phonological awareness.
- Phoneme awareness [part of phonological awareness] is the awareness of sounds in spoken words. As words are spoken, most sounds cannot be said by themselves.
- For example, the spoken word /cat/ has one continuous sound and is not pronounced "kuh-a-tuh."
- Children ordinarily concentrate on the meaning and do not think of the sounds in the word but, since letters represent sounds, a child must learn to think of words as having both meaning and sound in order to understand the alphabetic principle. (Stahl, Duffy-Hester, & Stahl, 1998, p. 340, references omitted)
Three keys to helping these children become fluent readers are to teach them how to quickly and accurately recognize words, to give them lots of daily practice in doing so, and to engage them in lots reading they find easy and enjoyable. This will help them to quickly identify words.
- Good phonics instruction leads to automatic word recognition. In order to read books, children need to be able to read words quickly and automatically. If a child stumbles over or has to decode slowly too many words, comprehension will suffer.
- Although we want children to have a strategy for decoding words they do not know, we also want children to recognize many words automatically and be able to read them in context. (Stahl, Duffy-Hester, & Stahl, 1998, p. 343, references omitted)
This helps many struggling readers to quickly and accurately identify unknown words. But many does not mean all.
Here's a way that can help struggling readers who struggle with the sounds of individual letters, especially vowel sounds.
It uses word families, such ake: bake, brake, cake, make, quake, rake, sake, snake, take. Word families are also called phonograms or rimes.
- Recent scholarly inquiry into how children learn to decode words suggests that knowledge of certain sound and letter patterns in words may help readers figure out unfamiliar words.
- This is often called the analogy approach to word recognition, and a considerable amount of research supports its use as an instrument for word-recognition instruction.
- Predominant among such letter patterns are onsets and rhymes. An onset is formed by the individual consonant or consonant combination (such as pl, ph, st, sch, str, or th) that precedes the first vowel in a word or syllable.
- Rhymes are another name for letter combinations that we have for years called "phonograms" or "word families," the part of a syllable that contains the vowel and all subsequent consonants. For example, in the word bat, the b is the onset and the at is the rime; in slick, the sl is the onset and the ick is the rime.
- Fry (1998) has pointed out that just 38 common rime patterns can be used by readers to decode 654 one-syllable words. Moreover, these same rhymes can also be helpful for partial decoding of a much larger number of longer, more difficult, multisyllabic words. (Rasinski, 1999)
- Has the school assessed his phonological awareness skills? If they're poor, are his teachers teaching him how to identify and manipulate sounds he hears in words?
- Are his teachers teaching him to recognize words quickly and accurately, or just accurately?
- If he struggles when using individual letters to sound out (decode) unknown words, can his teachers teach him to use word families (rhymes, phonograms)?

This week's newspaper column: Read it in the Hattiesburg Amercian.
Try this.
Next time you're driving across town, instead of noticing how things look, be aware of how the physical environment makes you feel.
On the typical suburban strip, do the oceans of concrete and asphalt make you anxious? Are the buildings you see interesting enough to make you take a second look? Do you feel any joy in the experience, or is it all business getting from here to there?
Now turn onto a tree-lined residential street, preferably one dating back a hundred years or more. Notice that the proportions and colors of your surroundings have changed. You pass underneath a soft green canopy of mature trees, and the older houses all seem to have character. You drive slower to take it all in. Can you feel the difference?
Better yet, for a more visceral experience, park your car and take off on foot. Now you can really feel your surroundings. Is your sensation different while strolling down a sidewalk buffered from the street by trees and vegetation than when walking along the shoulder of busy roadway? Do you feel different walking across a parking lot than you walking through a park or that neighborhood with the interesting houses? What if there's no sidewalk? How does that change your perception?
You don't need a Ph.D. for this little experiment. We all, as humans, have the innate ability to intuitively feel the world around us. This applies to the world we build as well as our natural surroundings.
I've often heard people say "I like old buildings." But what is it that we like about them? Why do they seem to have so much character and personality?
Go to any old downtown district where the older buildings are still intact. The buildings play, the shades and shadows dance, and the space comes alive. The facades are not self-conscious and reserved; they are expressive.
There was a time when buildings and neighborhoods were designed with the human spirit in mind, and unapologetically so. No wonder we find so much delight in those older buildings. The buildings and spaces we respond to most are those that most closely reflect our humanity.
Yes buildings must keep the rain out and not fall down, and our exterior spaces must facilitate our movement from here to there, but those are intellectual exercises. Building codes and zoning ordinances exist to insure that we adhere to the practical side of things.
We are emotional creatures. Love, joy, excitement, the feeling of safety – these are just a few of the emotions that elevate the human spirit.
When we construct buildings and carve out spaces that begin and end with practicality, the resulting environment becomes soul-less.
Conversely, when we go beyond practicality with design solutions that honor and express the human spirit, everything comes alive.

"And now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; and the greatest of these is love."
Dividing the Bible into chapters didn't take place until around 1227; verses weren't introduced until 1551. There are no such divisions in the original Hebrew and Greek scrolls.
Those divisions are a reading aid, but they sometimes obscure connections, too.
So at the end of what we call Chapter 12 of Paul's first letter to the church in Corinth is a line that reads: "But strive for the greater gifts. And I will show you a still more excellent way." Paul then launches into his famous section on love.
Although it can't be proven, I think Paul is using the word "way" in a double sense. Recall that Acts 9:2 says: "[Saul] asked him for letters to the synagogues at Damascus, so that if he found any who belonged to the Way, men or women, he might bring them bound to Jerusalem."
Love is the way. Or, perhaps, we should say, Love is The Way. As John says: "God is love, and those who abide in love abide in God, and God abides in them."
Our faith, then, is in a God of Love—love that became enfleshed in Jesus Christ. And while it is true that if we truly believe this we will try to live in a certain manner, that perspective is quite different from treating the Bible as a set of rules to be followed so that God will accept us.
Jesus consistently challenged the faith of the religious leaders of his day who treated scripture as a set of rules. On the contrary, he said, it's about responding to God's divine invitation to have an intimate relationship with God.
It is that faith that gives us hope. Christian hope is not merely that the world will be a better place—though our faith requires us to redistribute wealth so that everyone can share equally in the riches God has provided for us on this planet and also to take care of the Earth.
Important though those are, our hope—our expectation—is that the Spirit is continually working in us and the world to accomplish the divine will.
And the divine will is that Love will triumph. This runs contrary to the world's wisdom, which is either that nothing matters or that, if anything matters, we must follow a set of rules.
What is interesting and curious about love is that it depends on seeing how the beloved (the object of love) completes what is missing in the lover. Couples instinctively figure this out, finding a mate who completes them.
But God, by definition, needs nothing. So the divine love is most truly selfless love. God loves us, not because of need, but simply because She wants to.
So this is my—our—closing wish for you, dear reader. That this Christmas and every year after that you continue to draw breath, you will feel the love of God that surrounds you, and that you, in turn, will spread that love to everyone you encounter.
On behalf of everyone on the Presbyterian Record team: "God bless us, every one!"

A federal judge here heard arguments yesterday from a Bucks County Christian fundamentalist church seeking reimbursement of Social Security taxes while claiming that religious institutions should be immune from paying them.
U.S. District Judge William Caldwell heard opinions from attorneys representing the Bethel Baptist Church in Sellersville and the federal government in what could become a landmark case concerning separation of church and state. "This is a very serious First Amendment case," said William Ball, a Harrisburg attorney representing Bethel Baptist.

My 3-Part Formula for a Fun (and Easy) Kids' Party
I'm almost embarrassed to share how much time and money I spent on my daughter's first birthday. I hand-punched confetti, you guys, and we smoked a pork shoulder on our grill for eight hours and made BBQ sauce for party favors. All that hard work was worth it because we loved celebrating her with friends and family, but it made the days leading up to the party and the emotions I had about my baby turning 1 hard to manage. I can't say that her second birthday party was any less ambitious.
This month my daughter celebrated her fifth birthday, and along with her baby brother's two birthday parties, I now have seven kids' parties under my belt. I've learned a lot about what makes a fun (and easy) kids' party from planning these parties, so much so that I've developed a formula for planning that keeps me and my guests happy. It's simpler than you think.
From the Mouth of Babes
My daughter was actually the inspiration for the original formula. When I asked what she wanted for her third birthday she said, "All I need is cake, balloons, and my peoples."
I translated "peoples" to mean her friends and family and did little more than invite people to the house and provide cake and decorate with balloons. The party was mostly a huge success and I pulled things together in just a few hours before celebrating. That party led me to my formula.
The Formula for a Fun & Easy Birthday Party
Cake + Balloons + One Activity = Fun (and Easy) Kids' Party
Whether you bake from a cake mix, order the cake from a baker, mix up your favorite sheet cake or cupcakes, or rely on an ingenious grocery-store hack, a birthday celebration means cake. Serving other food is optional, but I try to plan kids' parties around 10 a.m. or 2 p.m. to avoid major mealtimes and just provide drinks and a few snacks like party mix and fruit salad. The cake is the star of the show; the kids don't care if you serve take-out pizza or hand-pulled barbecue beforehand.
I love, love, love party decorations and frequently buy and hold onto cute banners and fun props for "future use," but balloons instantly decorate a room without busting your budget. A mix of helium-filled (which can double as a favor) and a few filled balloons on the floor make for festive decor and are fun for older kids to kick around.
One Activity
Bonus points if you're one activity doubles as a party favor or as cake. Your activity can be as simple as coloring pages (there are tons of free printable ones available online!) or as ambitious as painting birdhouses. Decorating cupcakes is another easy (and delicious) way to occupy kids during the party. One activity might not seem like it will fill the length of a party, but I've found young kids have just enough attention to do one organized game or activity and then they just want to play with their friends the rest of the party.
Pro tip: Try to have a quiet area for coloring or reading near the festivities too. Some kids come to parties tired, get overstimulated, or don't do well in crowds and need a place to chill out for a few minutes in all the commotion.

District Has 'Fantastic' Start to School Year
NEW ROCHELLE, NY -- The City School District of New Rochelle marked the successful completion of opening week for the 2018-2019 school year today, with its first full day of classes for all students.
"We had a fantastic start to a brand new school year," said Superintendent Dr. Brian Osborne. "From one end of the District to the other, we saw lots of smiling faces, educators ready to teach and students eager to learn. The City School District of New Rochelle family is off to a great year."
Students returned to the District in phases. On Wednesday, students from pre-Kindergarten through ninth-grade reported to their school buildings. Elementary school students had a half day of classes.
"I'm looking forward to learning and I'm looking forward to doing some writing," said Sofia Escoferry, a fifth-grader, as she and her schoolmates gathered outside the George M. Davis Jr. Elementary School early Wednesday. "I like to write historical fiction." She particularly likes the 1700s. "It's really interesting to me how different it was."
Middle school students stepped into the year with an orientation session of 60 to 90 minutes on Wednesday while at New Rochelle High School, freshmen were treated to a full day of orientation, including a mindfulness session and a picnic.
"We're here to help you guys," Dr. Josh Logan, school psychologist, told a group in House 1. "Make sure you use people in the building to help you. This is your team. Use us."
The high school upper classmen returned yesterday, with juniors and seniors easing into the year with orientation only. Sophomores stayed for classes.
This morning, the introductions were complete and the first regular full day for everyone in the District began.
"I'm looking forward to meeting all the new people in my classes," said senior Vida Cruz, a cheerleader. She was also eager to start a marine science class she enrolled in and to gather at the Huguenots' football games "because of the strong school spirit."

I do say, I'm long over due for a post! Though I haven't really had the time to post lately, I have still been creating ;O)
My last two projects were a bit of experimentation to me!! Until a few weeks ago, the only Tim Holtz products I had used were the Ranger Distress Ink pads. I love distressing my work, I just love the way you can make something look like you have cherished it for many years :O) So curiosity got the best of me at Michaels one day, and I picked up a few more Tim Holtz goodies. To start my new venture I picked out some Adirondack inks in the neutrals colors, an applicator, the alcohal mixitive, and extra felt pieces. Brought it all home watched a few videos on Timholtz.com and bam i was off like a rocket. I practiced on a few clear acrylic tags (also by tim holtz) and later perfected my first attempts on a couple Acrylic and chipboard album kits from Clear Scraps. Never had so much fun. I LOVE working with acrylics and what better way to enjoy them than by learning new techniques to make them beautiful! Though they have been listed and sold on ebay, I thought I'd still list a few pictures to give you an idea of what I've been up to! :O)

Visiting (temporary) students most commonly will come to the ISU College of Veterinary Medicine to participate in VM4 (senior student) rotations. These are veterinary students attending other veterinary colleges, and the credit or non-credit they receive as a visiting student is determined by their own university. The following is a brief outline (not comprehensive) of information visiting students need to receive. It is important that further information is provided by the hosting Department with primary student responsibility, and facilitated by the CVM International Programs Office in the Office of the Dean for Academic and Student Affairs when international students are coming to the College.
The College requires all student visitors working with animals to have proof of rabies vaccination. The CVM requires rabies (3 shot series) or proof of sufficient titer. Also required is proof of a current tetanus vaccination within the past 10 years.
Other vaccinations, such as mumps, measles, rubella, diphtheria and pertussis (whooping cough), a one-time vaccination, are recommended but not required by Iowa State University for non-enrolled students. Vaccines are available at the Theilen Health Center for a fee.
A copy of these records should be held in the office of the hosting department.
Students should read and be familiar with the ISU Veterinary College Student Handbook, especially regarding safety, bio-security, and ethics.
The student will receive an electronic pdf of the VM4 Handbook.
All students and visitors to Iowa State University should make their requests for disability accommodations to the Office of Student Disability Resources (SDR) related to courses and education to assist in determining eligibility. In the cases where students/visitors contact the ISU College of Veterinary Medicine Associate Dean of Students Office or Veterinary Medicine staff and /or instructors regarding an accommodation request, please contact SDR to assist. If at all possible, this should be done before accommodations need to be made, since time is needed for approval and documentation. SDR will work with the student to complete Student Academic Accommodation Request forms (SAARs) to present to instructors.
Students should contact the departmental office of the department in which they are working for further knowledge of policies, procedures, available office and/or study space, assignments, lockers, clothing, supplies, building access, and other needed information. Your contact person will need to assist you in traveling to the ISU campus.
Students will need to receive an orientation regarding the electronic medical records program and patient confidentiality. Students should start at the beginning of block rotations in order to receive orientation for that block.
Students should complete the College of Veterinary Medicine Course Experience- Request by Visiting Student form or a similar form which will be signed by the instructors.
On arrival, students will notify the Office of the Associate Dean for Academic and Student Affairs and obtain a plastic-sleeved name badge.
University ID & Computer Use
University ID & Computer Use
On an as needed basis, students may be granted temporary computer use. The student will need to have an ISU Identification Card and number to be granted this access.
Students are required to know the ISU computer ethics code.
3.2. Password Security Users are responsible for the security of computer systems passwords, personal account passwords (e.g. Net-ID passwords) and personal identification numbers (PINs) and will be held accountable for any activities linked to their accounts. Users must follow established university standards for maintaining and managing passwords. 3.3. User Security Practices Users are required to be aware of and employ security practices established by the university and their colleges, departments or administrative offices to prevent unauthorized access to their computers. Security breaches can often be linked to the actions individuals take or fail to take when using information technology resources (e.g., leaving their computers logged into applications while away from their desks, storing written copies of passwords in obvious places, using insecure methods for transferring information).
Students may not copy or disseminate any college information obtained via computer access unless permission has been granted by the author or college.
The Department and mentor(s) are responsible for obtaining temporary key access and signing for the visiting student, as the responsible person for the access. This should be limited access with a specific external door (the designated student entrance) and will be terminated when the student leaves. Key requests are forwarded and approved via Ms. Karol Krumm.
International students are required to have proof of health insurance.
Liability - Under Iowa Tort Law, students working on behalf of ISU and located at the Iowa State University are usually covered under Iowa Tort Law.
International Students
The CVM has an International Student Program which facilitates student exchanges and placement.
The CVM contact is Ms. Mercedes Serracin at email@example.com or (515) 294-1501.
The ISU International Student and Scholars Office may be found at: http://www.isso.iastate.edu/
The above topics for orientation generally apply to visiting scholars and faculty as well. In those cases, the Faculty Host is responsible.

Christmas at the family … … ranch (?)
This year the run up to christmas has been all about wrapping presents, drinking wine, ever-so-much sun, family decorations, watching Q.i., making Candy Cane Biscotti, and herding runaway caterpillars.
Our tree is a family history of christmases.
Ever so old baubles made by my grandma using sequins and polystyrene balls. And a crochet angel from which the starch has disappeared.
She now appears to be sleeping. Yawning. Not exactly caroling.
2007 Decorations:
Rogue Caterpillars!
And scary scary decorations in the mall.
Well, mainly just the one extra scary decoration:
It's all I see when I close my eyes!
(much better)
This morning my sisters and I all got up at different times and didn't really see each other before leaving the house.
About an hour after we'd been all home together we kind of looked at each other and realised:
We'd all managed to choose some kind white tee shirt and jeans.
Spooky in a not very interesting kind of way.

The Cat Came Back
Patrick Hester; Conversations With My Cat (2012; ASIN B00AEV29Q8; cover artist unknown).
Caveat 01: I work with Patrick, on occasion, on the SF Signal podcast. Caveat 02: I was always amused by the postings he made on his blog about his cat, so I would have bought the book anyway even if I didn't work with him on the podcast!
Patrick owns two cats. Or...is it the other way around? Most cat owners would assert that the cat owns you and there is certainly plenty of evidence to that effect in here. Plus humor. G-rated, PG-rated, but humor. If you are looking for a chuckle (or five, hence my Amazon rating), I recommend picking this up.
Now, I'm back to my magnum opus, Conversations With My Dog...
