There's a train now from London to Paris
It takes about three hours
Someone told me the train goes over 200
Miles-per-hour. While you're riding
You cannot tell. We seem to be going
At a normal pace.
When another train passes,
Going the opposite direction
There is a jolt. For a moment
I fear we are thrown off our track.
We are only in passing for less than
One second, but at that time
I can tell we are traveling very fast.

ALLSTAR LATE MODEL: Howard Wins East Bay
4 May 1998GIBSONTON, FL - Sophomore driver Bill Howard picked a great night to win his first career late model feature Saturday night at East Bay Raceway, worth $1,000 cash. Gene Lasker snapped Kenny Adams sprint car feature winning streak later in the evening.
With bonus monies added by Kensington Manor, the late model main became a battle of tire wear over 40 laps on the 1/3 mile clay oval. Eight of the top ten cars at the half-way point experienced flat tires that scrambled the lineup several times, with Howard nosing out Frank Erskine, Jr. who barely edged out Ken Nosbisch for second.
Bobby Alexander won the first heat and $500 for the Dash-For-Cash while his team-mate Steve Mathis won the second heat.
Defending sprint car champion Gene Lasker won his heat and the 25-lap feature with Roland Johnson making several attempts to take the lead but settling for second ahead of Steve Williams, Bob Auld and Sport Allen.
John Bradley avoided several multi-car pileups to win the limited late model main over Davis Schmauss, Roger Crouse, Danny Bowman and Tommy Evonosky. With two of the lead cars crashing together on the last corner of the last lap, the wildest race of the night saw Michael Smith nose out Scotty Williams to take the mini-stock main. Danny Paris Jr. won his first street stock feature after missing several multi-car crashes. Mike Kessel grabbed second.
Feature finishes: Late Model - 1. Bill Howard 2. Frank Erskine Jr. 3. Ken Nosbisch 4. Donnie Tanner 5. Ted Erskine 6. Steve Mathis 7. Jack Nosbisch 8. David Schmauss 9. John Gross 10. Davis Simpson.
Sprint car - 1. Gene Lasker 2. Roland Johnson 3. Steve Williams 4. Bob Auld 5. Sport Allen 6. Paulie Milum 7. Taylor Andrews 8. Red Kuntsbeck 9. John Wrobleski 10. Clyde Poole.

Nora's Fish
I wanted to make a cod related stuffed toy for my niece, Nora's first Christmas, because my brother-in-law works in the cod-fishing industry.
Cod are small, plain fish which really look like something Dr. Seuss would draw, so I thought they would make the perfect cute toy, but they don't seem to have inspired many patterns. So I set out to design my own. It was the first crochet pattern I've ever written.
I found the design process to be pretty easy, especially as I wanted something cute and cartoony. I'm very happy with the result. I was pleased to find how easy it could be to reproduce a shape using crochet.
This pattern takes small amounts of greenish worsted, black worsted, and multicolor novelty yarn, a J hook and polyfill stuffing. You can find the full instructions here: http://home.comcast.net/~efbq/crafts/Norafish.html

Attachment aims to heighten 'point-of-view' experience of video chat
Many of us have become inseparable from our smartphones and tablets, but if you're looking to take the relationship to the next step and actually 'f*ck your iPad', sex toy brand Fleshlight has now made this possible for some reason.
The company this week launches Fleshlight Launchpad, which allows users of their flashlight-shaped, vagina-like toy to plug it into the back of an iPad in order to 'fully immerse themselves' in whatever they're watching.
The gadget "enables the user to enjoy the full Fleshlight experience while enjoying content or communicating live with a friend via applications like Facetime or Skype," makers Interactive Life Forms claim, with its trailer showing a man making use of one while video-chatting with his girlfriend.

The eerily fused space-time event that had once been – or would be, maybe – Colonel McOldentimes or Colonels McOldentimes directed me out of the administration office and back through the yard. It was a direction I hadn't really gone before, since my last couple of trips through this what-I-was-increasingly-realising-was-laughable-to-call-a-time-period had taken me away towards the fence and the cellars that apparently riddled the area.
I was only too happy to get out of the office, but the schisms across space-time didn't stop with the poor Colonel(s). I did my best to avert my eyes and not walk into any of the strange blocky intrusions across ground and buildings. I looked up at the sky, but that was worse. The faded blue was blotted with horribly familiar signal-gap nothingness that I had once seen at the utter extreme end of the chronological universe, while time-travelling with Creepy.
I didn't like to think about it, mostly out of concerns of copyright violation. But also because the holes in the shredded and ancient remains of the firmament had distressed me beyond measure. The sound they'd made was enough to set my teeth on edge. I wasn't sure how they could be here, in the past … but I was sure it wasn't good.
The cookhouse was a combination kitchen, canteen for the prisoners, and dining area for the guards and officers. It was deserted at that particular time of day, although what precise time of day it was – well, that was hard to judge. It was hot, and bright, but the sun didn't seem to be the source of it. Not the sun that was visible up in the patchwork sky, anyway. I crossed the yard towards the building, stepped around a shorn-off section of some part of the continuum that appeared to be a segment of full-to-the-brim salt lake like a big three-sided square aquarium without visible glass[1], and stepped up onto the cookhouse verandah.
[1] I say this as distinct from a triangular aquarium. It was a square, but it only had three edges. The fourth just sort of faded away to nothing, merging back into the 'normal' background. It was like someone had put a picture-layer of a lake over the top of the existing yard-picture, then cropped three edges cleanly and blur-erased the fourth.
The cookhouse trumpet was hanging by its braided rope strap from a wooden peg on the cookhouse wall, where the duty chef could pick it up and play a few notes to call the guards and convicts to eat at the designated times. Aside from the fact that it was hanging on a peg instead of lying on a manky old table in a sewer, and it was shiny and undented and its rope supple and new, it looked exactly like the one we'd found.
The one that Creepy had grabbed in a moment of possible X-ray-specs-planning excitement, setting off the entire curse.
Curse, I snorted, picking the trumpet off its peg and looking around.
On one side of Barnsley Yard, another shear had jagged across a bunkhouse of some description. The version of the universe it had fused with appeared to be a corpse-laden swamp. As I watched, in apparent violation of rules that evidently only existed for as long as it took the unravelling universe to decide they were surplus to requirements, the mud began to ooze out of the join between the two realities, and squidge its way down the bunkhouse wall. It puddled on the ground, then poured over a straight-line drop-off that was another schism from one perspective, and the edge of a time-cellar trapdoor from another.
"Curse," I said out loud, since snorting it in my mind had not been enough. "Right."
I dropped the cookhouse trumpet onto the verandah, raised my boot, and began to stomp on the instrument heavily.

Liz Meyer Loses 10 Year Battle with Cancer
published by BMNN on Tue, 2011-08-30 00:36
On August 26th, American songwriter, Liz Meyer known throughout the European bluegrass music community lost her battle with cancer. She was an avid bluegrass singer, songwriter and an active participant with the European Bluegrass Associations and the European version of the World of Bluegrass. Liz Meyer was based in the Netherlands and her songs are often more well known here than her own recordings. Of course, the songs are excellent and "Blue Lonesome Wind" was the featured title cut on an album by Auldridge, Bennett & Gaudreau, and another song, "Bad Seed" is featured on a recent Laurie Lewis and Tom Rozum album.
Liz worked hard with the European World of Bluegrass in Voorthuizen and was dedicated to making the event a major international bluegrass event. Bands all over Europe and the USA loved her for her dedication and joyful spirit. This is a huge loss to the entire bluegrass community and especially the European Bluegrass Music Association.
Her battle with the deadly disease was a long and difficult one. Her dedication to the EBMA and EWOB was neverending however. She would contribute from the clinic or her home regularly. Last year found her in the clinic for an extended period of time and yet, she kept up her duties and dedication.
During the past 10 years, Liz was always the first to inform us of new and exciting bluegrass events from Europe. Her notes were beyond just the EWOB and EBMA activities. They were always cheerful and personal. It was always a pleasure to hear from her as her spirit and attitude were always cheerful and positive.
Our thoughts are with her husband Pieter Groenveld as the entire world suffers this geat loss.
from the Bluegrass Blog
Liz Meyer RIP
posted by Richard Thompson on 08.28.11 @ 7:49 pm
Liz Meyer, one of Europe's adopted American bluegrassers, passed away on Friday 26 August after a decade-long battle with cancer.
In April 2009 doctors discovered severe bone cancer that led to a long stay in the Klinik St. Georg, Bad Aibling, Munich, Germany, from June of that year onwards. She had already beaten cancer six times prior to that. Sadly, in July Meyer had to return to the cancer hospital.
Born March 7, 1952 in Washington DC, the award-winning singer-songwriter had lived in the Netherlands since 1985.
Her songs have been recorded by bluegrass and folk acts in the USA and Europe, including Del McCoury, Laurie Lewis & Tom Rozum, Emmylou Harris, Kate MacKenzie, Acousticure, Red Wine and Nugget.
She has several albums that feature her own material also, starting with the 1982 release on Adelphi, Once a Day. Since 1995 most of her recordings have been on Strictly Country, the label that she helped her husband from October 1986, Pieter Groenveld, run. The first of these was Womanly Arts (SCR 37), actually recorded in Nashville. That was followed by The Storm for which she penned all but one of the dozen songs featured.
In addition to the two studio albums was the folk-orientated Regions of the Soul that consisted of live recordings of duets with guitarist Mark Cosgrove (actually released on the Strictly Music label) and the collection of recordings on-stage with the Czech group: Live at the European World of Bluegrass, 1999-2003.
She was a very pro-active and vocal promoter of the European World of Bluegrass (EWoB) and European bluegrass music in general.
During the past two decades Meyer produced more than 30 albums, including CDs by singer-songwriters David Olney and Jonathan Edwards and those in the European World of Bluegrass series.
She is a Leadership Bluegrass alumnus.
Condolences to Pieter, daughter Liz and family.

With a little over 10,000 undergraduates, Charleston is the 13th oldest college in the nation. Despite being a public university, it has the feel of a small private college but with the advantages of a mid-sized university. The atmosphere is creative and intellectual with committed and caring faculty members. They have many different and unusual offerings, including programs like art and computing, historic preservation, arts management, & discovery informatics (lots of research available to this major). The film studies majors get involved with the film production opportunities in Charleston, such as with Lifetime's Army Wives or with indie films like Dear John.
In 2011 there will be a new First Year Experience Program for students where they all live in a learning community centered on four different themes. Undergraduate research is very important and they feel there are many unique ways students can work closely with faculty.
Charleston has many options to study abroad, from their own campuses in Chili, France, Argentina and Spain to offering bilateral trades with international students to study in their home universities. Charleston is one of the few colleges in the U.S. that has a residential campus in Cuba, which is an incredibly rich experience for students.
C of C sits in the middle of the historic Charleston downtown, with everything available within a one block radius. Housing is guaranteed all four years with freshmen living in suite style housing (2 rooms and a shared bath). C of C has a very active and rich campus life, with more than 175 clubs. They have Division I sports and basketball is huge with a new arena. The campus is full of traditions including Cougarpalooza, Cosmic Bowling, midnight breakfast and outings to Foley Beach (Atlantic Ocean) and biking along the Cooper River Bridge.

Posted November 05, 2003 by publisher in US Tourism to Cuba
Email this article | Print this article | Search Havana Journal Tweet
PETRE WILLIAMS | Jamaica Observer staff reporter
JAMAICAN tourism interests yesterday predicted a temporary slump in visitors from America if the US lifts its 40-year travel ban on its citizens to Cuba, but said the Jamaican brand was strong enough to ensure an early recovery.
"There is no doubt that the novelty value and other considerations will lure visitors to Cuba whenever the travel ban on US citizens is lifted," said the Jamaican tourism minister, Aloun Assamba.
But Assamba said that Jamaica was accustomed to competition in the tourism business and was already preparing for the reopening of Cuba to US travellers.
"...Local hotel and airline interests have already established ties with Cuba," Assamba said. "... We wholeheartedly support the lifting of the US travel ban on our regional neighbour (and) we look forward to establishing strong tourism partnerships, at various levels, that can benefit both our countries."
Gordon "Butch"s Stewart's Sandals and Beaches chain, as well as John Issa's SuperClubs, already operate hotels in Cuba. Air Jamaica and its subsidiary, Air Jamaica Express, also have regular flights to Cuba opening the opportunity for multi-destination tourism between Cuba and its English-speaking Caribbean neighbours.
Jamaicans have for years debated the likely impact that Cuba, once free from a US travel and trade embargo, would have on the island's US$1.2 billion a year tourism industry. But bills passed by the US House of Representatives last month and the Senate yesterday, which would give effect to this, have begun to seriously concentrate minds—notwithstanding the threat of a veto by President George W Bush.
Godfrey Dyer, head of the Jamaica Hotel and Tourist Association (JHTA) agreed with Assamba that ultimately Jamaica could absorb the threat of Cuba, but said the island's crime problem had to be solved to ensure that this was sustained.
"From the tourism side of it, it could be a temporary setback for us," Dyer said. "More and more Americans are going to be excited to see what's there but I think Jamaica will still be able to hold strongly and get its fair share," he said.
"Once we are able to get crime under control, Cuba, or nowhere can out-compete us," he said. "... Brand Jamaica is very strong…"

Due to this, I've decided to push myself into imperfection through analogue photography. However, I am yet to complete an entire film and wanted something more instant (I'm already battling one modern-age demon, don't ask me to go for two in one go). Through research, I found myself in adoration of Holga photography. Holga cameras are known to yield pictures with vignetting, blur, light leaks, lens flare, and other 'imperfections'.
I went ahead and purchased a Holga lens for my Lumix GX1 from Amazon for £12.99 (found here - for Micro 4/3 cameras) and I've been playing with it for a couple of days now. Here's what I've taken so far around Winchester and London...
I have to say that I'm loving the balance the Holga has given me. It's reminded me that not everything has to be perfect, and if anything, some things are better when when they're not.
Cheers guys,

Ever in search of a good Po Boy for take out, I went to a new restaurant last night, Bud's Louisiana Food Shoppe. Bud's opened about one month ago, and despite its name, it does not sell ingredients. But it does have wonderful Cajun and Creole concoctions.
I had the Seafood Bisque (cup $3.50/ bowl $7.50). Lightly creamy and full of flavor. The spicing was just right: rich from the cream; earthy from the corn; while it still spoke of the sea, from the generous helping of crawfish, crab, and shrimp.
I also had the Oyster Po Boy ($7.95). The roll and cornmeal "breading" were both excellent. The Remoulade was okay. But I was a disappointed by the oysters themselves. Either Bud's bought especially tiny oysters (New Orleans oysters should not be too small) or it cut the oysters into pieces. Either way, the ratio of cormeal to oyster was off. And since the cornmeal was just fine, it's the oysters that need improving.
Enough bitching. Bud's will definitely be on my regular takeout rotation from here on.
The gumbo includes andouille, and I don't eat sausage. But I'm looking forward to the shrimp creole and crawfish etouffe as well as more of that sublime seafood bisque.

While we do not know of the exact prices, we can tell you that the price tag for renting a Lamborghini is not cheap. The same goes for a BMW or any other well-known brand of luxury car. Simply put, luxury car rental in London is not cheap.
We looked at one car rental company and found that they charged $600 per day for driving a Lamborghini. However, this price is actually misleading – that is the price you pay per say if you book for two weeks or more. If you rent the car for only three days or even one day, you will have to pay upwards of $700 per day.
If that is not expensive, we do not know what is, unless you want to go and rent a Mercedes in Dubai. However, there is a way for you to pay a lower price. As you can see from above, you can easily get a discount simply by renting a car for two weeks. However, renting a car for two weeks is impossible if you're only going on a quick business trip.
If you will only be in London for a few days, there are still ways through which you can get a cheaper price. One is by comparison shopping. Get a quote from at least three rental companies and which one offers the lowest price. Take note, though, just because a car rental company is offering the cheapest deal, it does NOT mean that it is offering the best. As with anything else in life, with car rentals, you always get what you pay for.
It might just be that the rental price does not include insurance and tax, and hence, you will need to pay more in the final calculation. Definitely, when it comes to finding the best deal, it won't hurt if you ask for the details of the price and not just look at the surface. Aside from the price, there are other factors you need to consider when deciding which luxury car rental company to go for. For us, the most important factor is the mileage.
If you have ever dealt with car rental agencies before, you already know that some of them actually have mileage limits. What this means is that there are only so many places you can go to before you need to return the car or face a stiff penalty.
This can be a real party bomber as there are so many places to go to in London and its surrounding area. Still, you would be glad to know there are rental companies out there that do not impose any limitations on their clients, like Paylesscar or Apex Luxury Car Hire. Another factor you need to consider in choosing a rental company are the options. For example, if you want chauffeur-based service, you obviously want to find a company that offers it.

L'Auberge Casino Hotel Baton Rouge
Baton Rouge, Louisiana
"Kim Hammond"
Great atmosphere & fun. I visited L'Auberge for the buffet. Coming in with no expectations at all, but hunger I was taken away to bountiful hills of salad options from leafy to pasta. Move into the southern cusine of all things seafood anyway you like it.Push a little further into Oriental express of all good eats. To my favorite the Roasted pig dressed all in it's glory of downhome jambalaya (heavenly). On to my next flavorful & colorful portion of the adventure DESSERT. So glorious. Thank you L'Auberge you've done it. The staff pulls it all together very well to make the experience memorable.

The next step in the process of creating the Flight 93 National Memorial started on Friday.
The draft of the general management plan and environmental impact statement went on display at the Flight 93 National Memorial Office and on-line.
This is the first time a national park has been planned through a design competition. While it may seem like a long time in coming, the planning process only began in 2003.
The first alternative proposed is to do nothing. This is required as an option under law, but it is not even worth considering. The passengers and crew of Flight 93 deserve a memorial at the crash site in Stonycreek Township.

WooHoo here we go…finally! Slice will be broadcasting PR8 on Saturday's, starting January 8th. Air times are Noon and 6pm PST. Then again on Sunday at 9am. Check www.slice.ca for your time zone. This is the same schedule as we have had for the last couple of seasons. Not much information available on the website yet.
So far I have been able to not hear anything much about this season so I am happy my wait is almost over. I was actually afraid it would be out on DVD before we got it on TV, up here. I wouldn't be surprised if it came out while it is airing here.
Yesterday, while channel surfing, I caught the last few episodes of the Fashion Show on the Cosmo Channel. It features Izak Mizrahi and the editor of Harpers Bazaar Magazine. It was definately watchable and interesting. It is also put out by Bravo TV. They even sell the winning designs on Bravo. It is worth checking out.
Spread the word so we get good ratings and let Slice know we are very interested fans!
Let's Start at the Beginning
Posted December 28, 2010on:
The beginning of December that is. It has been a very busy month. To start the month off, there was Shoparama. For those of you who don't live in Vernon, Shoparama is a 'trade' show for home and small businesses. It is a very popular happening in December. There is also one in April but it isn't quite as big. I went to promote the Sewing Studio and our new services.
I had several sewing projects lined up to do over the two days of the show. I made sure to have the patterns and other items visible for anyone who was interested, to look at. Many lovely conversations were started over these items. I finished the pockets for my Quilt Guild tote bag, the diaper stacker and the Christening bonnet. I also worked on the Christening gown. I considered it a very successful show for me. I gave out over 50 of my business cards and almost as many Class Schedules for January. I actually ran out early in the first day which was bad.
The next weekend was my trip to Montana to meet my new Granddaughter. Being the holiday season, I had lots of work to do beside my packing and finishing the Christening gown. It was finished an hour before I headed for the airport. I packed so haphazardly that there really weren't complete outfits in my suitcase and I went off without the diaper stacker. My boss wanted me to get several jobs done that just couldn't wait for the next week, so you can imagine my week was a panic.
Thankfully, the trip was perfect. The airplanes were all on time and not too bumpy. The airports were a people watchers dream. I got plenty of reading done on the planes. My time in Billings went very well. I spent lots of time with the Grandchildren. Gavin is a 5 year old in constant motion and Vivianne is an angel but she also shows signs of being very active when she gets older. The Baptism was joyful and she looked beautiful!
My daughter-in-law Daen is holding Vivianne and of course that is me in the picture. The only glitch was when a button popped off her dress. Gavin retrieved it and tried to give it to his Dad while he was doing the actual water part of the baptism. It was amusing. Not sure why the button popped off since I was sure I had sewn them on well.
I think I mentioned awhile back that I had injured my right rotator cuff and it has continued to be an issue for me. On the trip I was muscling around two suitcases and trying not to hurt the shoulder, and I didn't. On the way to Montana the suitcases had Christmas presents and the sewing for Vivi and on the way back they had some cooking/kitchen stuff for hubby and some clothes I bought to round out my wardrobe. Two of the items were heavy and didn't need to go upstairs when I got home but I tried to haul the big suitcase up with these items in it. In the process of doing this, without hurting my shoulder anymore, I managed to sprain or strain my right foot. Doesn't matter which I did, walking was painful. The next couple of weeks of work were very difficult! But I made it through.
The next couple of weeks were spent working alot and getting things ready for Christmas. I am notoriously late getting my gifts mailed out and this year was no different. I took the first three shipments to the UPS Store the Monday before Christmas. The only that made it to its destination before Christmas was the one containing bedding for the Grand-daughter. The other two should arrive today at their destinations. One other shipment was waiting for a gift to be completed and I tried to send it out yesterday but the UPS Store is closed until tomorrow. That's a small town for you. The last Christmas gift is on the cutting table now being laid out prior to sewing. Hopefully it will go fast. I will get over there this afternoon to work on it.
My birthday was the 22nd and hubby took me for a very nice dinner. I got a Gift Cert for Findlay's, the local sewing machine store and a couple DVD's. Christmas Eve was a lovely Appies dinner and gift exchange at my father-in-laws. Christmas morning was just the two of us having breakfast and opening stocking type gifts. Our gift to each other was a big flat screen TV for the bedroom. I got another Gift Cert; for Fabricland this time, some DVD's to watch at the Studio and a nice new computer tote bag. Life is good!
All through the month, there has been work done on the new Studio space. There was a bit of demolition at first then the new flooring went in, the drop ceiling was dropped an bit more and expanded and then the painting began. A new lighted sign went up and this week the door decals should go up. Today I will be looking for a pedestal sink. The old sink in the bathroom is falling off the wall. Tomorrow or Thursday we will start packing things up in the old Studio and if it is ready, we will start moving stuff in. I wasn't sure about the paint in the sewing room. It didn't look like it was covering up the gray under it.
The shoulder and foot continue to improve. The new Studio continues to come together and the holiday season continues on for another several days. The sun is shining at the moment. Life is generally good. And I have written enough for now. Happy sewing everyone!

6 Props Every Yoga Studio Should Have
There's nothing quite like walking into your yoga studio for the first time.
You've made the commitment, gotten a small business loan, found the perfect spot, and fixed it up to be everything you've wanted and more. Standing in that big, open room, imagining the students that will fill it soon, you feel optimistic, excited, maybe a little anxious, but good…great, even!
But before those students start filing in, make sure you're equipped to help them get the most out of their practice!
We know not every style of yoga encourages using props, but as a studio owner, you're going to see students of all levels of ability; many of them will need props to improve and deepen their practice. And isn't that what you're here to help them do anyway? Of course it is! So check out these props every yoga studio needs to provide effective classes that keep students coming back.
Blocks & Straps
Two of the prop classics: blocks and straps. You should have as many straps as you plan on having students (plus a few extra, just in case) and enough blocks for each student to have two. Some students may only use one block, but we're talking about being prepared here: it's better to have extra than not enough.
When guiding beginners – and even more advanced students – through certain poses, blocks and straps can be exponentially useful for ensuring proper alignment. Encouraging use of the blocks and straps can also help prevent injury by discouraging students from "forcing" poses.
Typically, blankets and bolsters are used to help support the body in poses that are held longer, so if you're planning on adding a Yin or meditative classes to your studio's lineup, you'll definitely want to have these props on hand! But even if you don't end up offering these types of yoga classes, you'll definitely still want to make sure you have these key props. Blankets are especially helpful in any type of class as they add a softer layer of support on the hard yoga studio floor for students with knee issues.
Chairs & Wall Space
Betcha didn't think we'd name parts of your actual studio as props but we are: walls, along with chairs, help add a sense of stability for students in certain poses. Now, admittedly, the chairs may be a little difficult to pull out for any class, but you may want to consider holding a special chair yoga workshop or adding a chair yoga class to your rotation. Some more senior students, as well as students with certain disabilities, can really get a lot out of chair yoga, so offering a class where you use the chair as a prop can really help make your studio more inclusive.
Additionally, you're probably not going to add a random wall in the middle of the practice space so it can be used as a prop. Leaving enough space along one or two walls in the studio should be plenty for students who want to use the wall when working on inversion poses. You can even encourage using the wall in your classes for getting proper alignment in certain standing poses!
And a Bonus Prop!
That's right: a bonus prop just for you! This is one you get on your phone or tablet – but you can also access it from your computer – and it helps you keep your yoga studio organized, helps your students sign up for classes, and helps your teachers manage their class schedules. Have you guessed it yet?
It's HealingRadiusPro! Once you create an account, you can list all the classes your studio offers, their times, and even allow potential students to enroll through HealingRadius! You can also manage your teachers and give them access to sections of your account, like the calendar so they can update their class info or times.

Smokey, as per usual, likes to walk into the picture :-)
And fat cat Ali was enjoying a little sun.
But the crocus ruled the day.
A few days later, a constant rain & slowly increasing temperatures caused a deep fog.
It also afforded some nice photo opportunities.And today we hit 60 degrees on a very sunny day. The birds can now be heard singing constantly and this titmouse stopped by for a quick bath.
More flowers are joining or priming to become part of the panoply of spring.
And we're all happy about that, even if you're on the outside looking in.

Giant Learning Curve
I'm trying really hard to get traffic to my blog, business to my Etsy site, all the while creating new and neat stuff for store inventory. There are sooo many options. The more I look, the more I realize I have so much to learn about all of this blog and ecommerce business. It is almost overwhelming and eventhough I have been computing for years, there is never a standstill in the learning curve of new technology. I imagine the best way to do it, is one small step at a time, a little everyday. One day I will look back and say, "Hey, I was 5o something, and I taught myself how to do that, and good for me." Hopefully all this struggle will pay off in ways I may not be able to conceive at the moment.

from the Cowboys and Aliens movie that will be due out on July 29th 2011. More details on that to come. In the meantime I am still organizing the quotes book. In fact I just posted another quote on my blog Cool Quotes Famous Quotes…
Month: November 2010
For thos who celebrate the holiday have a…
Great Thanksgiving!
Reading Chapter 6
named Effective Description from "How to Write a Short Story" co-written by John Vorwald and Ethan Wolff. It is a good thing to write effective description.
Today November 16th
Well I am still putting together the quotations that will be in my quotes book. I have also been reading "How to Write a Short Story" written by Jon Vorwald and Ethan Wolfe. This book shows you how to find an idea, creat characters, choose a point of view, create a memorable ending along with many other things. In any case it is a good read if any one wants to learn how to put a short story together. It even has "A Occurrence at Owl Creek Bridge" written by Ambrose Bierce at the end of the book as an excellent example.
Writing some poetry right now…
I will be submitting the poetry in some contests on the Writersmarket.com website. We will see what happens. I have started a sci fi short story. It is a time travel tale in which once scientist endeavors to save a time travel project that he has worked on for several years from the budget axe. Needless to say he and the whole time travel project crew will get into a lot of trouble. Thing is will they be able to save Project Secondhand? We shall see.
Writing can be fun,
it can be challenging and certainly frustrating at times. I find it to be most rewarding when things go well. When things do not go well I use some good apps on my Ipod touch to get the creative juices flowing. I also come to my wordpress blogs for the same reason. I also read "How to Create Fictional Characters" by Patricia Gilliam. I find her book to be quite helpful regarding character creation. The book causes you to raise a lot of questions about your character. For example you could ask questions about the character's body type (Height, weight, general health, hair and eye color, any deformaties, mental health, background, mannerisms).
You could ask how the character reacts to certain situations, is he or she a leader or follower, does the character have friends or a just a few good friends, does the character trust people easily or not, does the character have siblings and if so how does the character act with them. The character could have either good biological parents or bad adoptive parents and vica versa. You could see the effect of that on the character. In any case a lot of questions would have to be asked of the character before a complete character make up is completed.
Reading Science Fiction and Fantasy
by Orson Scott Card. This particular deals with how to write Sci-fi and Fantasy novels. So far I find it to be quite helpful. It describes the definition of Sci-fi and fantasy. I have read info on how to create story worlds and characters. It is a good read.

We enjoyed our 3 weeks back in the UK. It was good to catch up with friends and to have some family time as well. We drove back to La Maire on Saturday. Despite worries about fuel shortages, we had no problems filling up and had a good drive. The Autumn trees throughout France were a real picture - I wished I hadn't packed my camera away in the case!
We found La Maire exactly as we had left it - always a relief! The grass and weeds hadn't grown too long and it wasn't too cold either. The night sky when we arrived at 10.30 pm was clear and absolutely full of stars. Dave fired the boiler up, feeding it with the 'granules' that we bought in September. It soon got going, but we also soon realised that it was eating our (very expensive!) granules rather too quickly, and turning them into very acrid grey smoke! However, the very confusing instruction booklet is now making a bit of sense and after experimenting with different settings, Dave has sorted it for now...we hope!
Today is my birthday - but our plans to go for a walk or drive have come to nothing as it has been raining since yesterday lunchtime! It is also a Bank Holiday here today, so shops and restaurants are shut as well - so birthday 'celebrations' are on hold until Wednesday, when the weather looks to be much better. Instead, we have been fixing curtains (me) and light fittings (Dave) and putting some pictures up.
It is lovely to be back despite the weather and the fact that the only signs of life around here so far are the cows and chickens-everyone shelters indoors in this weather and especially so on Bank Holidays. All will be back to normal tomorrow!

Rapper, Quata, has indicated that the only way to decide which rapper tongue twists better is by organising a battle among them.
"I can't sit here and say I am the King of tongue twisting. People will say I am bluffing. Let's call for a battle among all the rappers who find themselves in the box… The public judge for something like this so I think we have to put it on tape for everybody to listen and the professionals will judge," he said on Pluzz FM's AM Pluzz.
"A show of this magnitude has to be at the Conference Centre. It has to be a big spectacle. I think it will be a great thing. People are expecting something like that. Promotion-wise, it's going to boost everyone's career. It's going to be beautiful, it will satisfy a lot of people. That is when we can officially declare who is the biggest," Quata added.
Some Ghanaian artistes known for tongue twisting include Flowking Stone, Sarkodie, Gemini and Secure.
Quata on the same platform in March mentioned that he started tongue twisting before any rapper. He disclosed that he went into hibernation for six years but followed the trend.
"I am the originator of tongue twisting in Ghana and nobody can beat the speed at which I can tongue twist. Everybody, both the youth and the old folks will attest to this fact. But to be honest, I am very happy seeing other rappers doing what I introduced. Obviously the intention wasn't to keep it to myself but to channel it to others, meanwhile I must stress on the fact that, I am not in competition with anybody because an originator is different from emulators," he noted.

Bluffton High wrestling coach John Hollman isn't troubled by his team's move into SCHSL Class AAAA, but he does expect to deal with a brutal region schedule.
The Bobcats, who made a name for themselves over eight years in Class AAA and went 20-4 with four state qualifiers last season, will likely wrestle in South Carolina's best region this winter.
"We not only are in AAAA, but we're probably in the toughest wrestling region of any classification in the state," Hollman said. "Five of the six teams are ranked in the top 15 in the state, so we've definitely got our work cut out for us."
Fort Dorchester is fourth in SCMAT.com's preseason Class AAAA rankings, followed by Beaufort at No. 5. Summerville is ninth, Bluffton is 14th and Ashley Ridge is 15th.
The region's impressive depth will make qualifying for the state team tournament - let alone winning a fifth region championship in nine years - a stiff challenge for the Bobcats. Only the top four teams will get to battle for the state title in February.
Bluffton has wrestled plenty of Class AAAA opponents over the years, including the members of its new region, but most of those matchups came in individual tournaments.
The dual format, in which teams go head-to-head in all 14 weight classes, is a bigger test. It gives those larger schools a chance to take advantage of their depth.
"It's one thing competing against the masses of them in tournament settings, but when you're competing against them one-on-one for regular-season and postseason positioning, that makes it a lot different," Hollman said.
The Bobcats will have some depth and experience on their side, however, when they open Region 8 competition Wednesday at Fort Dorchester.
All four of their state qualifiers - senior Austin Farmer at 132 pounds (a 2011 state runner-up), and juniors Levi Joly (113), Lloyd Williams (120) and Michael Meyerink (138) - return this winter. Farmer will attempt to place at state for a fourth consecutive year.
Joly, who finished third in Class AAA last season, is not daunted by the new level of competition.
"No matter what division you are, you wrestle pretty much the same kids," Joly said. "So I don't think it's that big of a difference, but it's definitely stepping up in class team-wise."
What: Bluffton at Fort Dorchester
When: 6 p.m. Wednesday

Solapur is a little over six hours by train from Mumbai. Those who travel regularly to Solapur and back will tell you to book your tickets in advance if you're planning a trip by III Tier AC to this outpost in Maharashtra for, on weekends sugar barons travel between Solapur and Mumbai and there's nary a ticket to be had if you haven't planned your travel in advance.
Siddeshwar Express is the preferred mode of travel to Solapur and back, depositing the traveler in Mumbai at the break of dawn. "It saves you daytime," is a common refrain of travelers who choose to travel by the Siddeshwar Express. And so it was with Zeeshan Sayyed and team who landed in Mumbai on the morning the IIT Mumbai Tech Fest 2009 opened on the sprawling Powai campus. "We landed early morning today," Swagat Jain, a teammate told us.
The IIT Tech Fest is arguably Asia's largest Science and Technology festival. Spread over three days it hosts hundreds of participants at the Powai campus of the Indian Institute of Technology. The 2009 edition of the Technology Festival kicked off a little over a week ago, on the 24th of January, and concluded on the 26th.
We met Zeeshan's team outside the Shailesh J. Mehta School of Management. The Little Devil lay stretched out in the mud across from where the team sat talking among themselves in a tight circle. The team exuded a quiet confidence in the Little Devil now that it had just bested an opponent in the one-to-one Robowars and advanced to the next round in the Knockout event. Combat Robotics is what they named these battles, locking competing robots in a 'mortal combat' of machine versus machine.
Over 28 Engineering Colleges had confirmed their participation in the event, and they came from as far as Guwahati, Bharuch, Alwar, Indore, Jabalpur, Chennai, Solapur, and Bhubaneshwar among others, lugging the fearsome looking robots by public transport.
"Didn't the Indian Railway Officials ask you about the Little Devil on boarding the Siddeshwar Express," I asked Swagat. Considering the mass of wires and electrical and mechanical components that made up the robot I would've been surprised if Indian Railway officials hadn't batted an eyelid on seeing it in the corner of a train compartment, more so considering the general nervousness in the wake of the Mumbai terrorist strikes.
"Oh yes, they did," he replied. "We showed them the invitation letter from the Indian Institute of Technology, and produced letters from our institute, Walchand Institute of Technology.
Their robot, the Little Devil, took them over a month and half to design and assemble, and cost them Rs. 20,000. The six of them, engineering students all, pooled their money together and came up with this trapezoidal monster that actually looked amiable from the distance.
"It is designed to lift an opponent weighing 35 kilos," Zeeshan proffered, "five kilos over the size limit specified for the competition."
Wires tailed the Little Devil where it lay in silence. The team had designed an electrical system to control its movement.
Innovating with Honda Activa's gears and motorcycle chains, and leveraging DC geared motors to generate sufficient torque as well as ample speed, the team had rigged up the four wheels they had sourced from Lamington Road to provide them with optimum mobility to attack the opponent.
"To turn the Little Devil, we throw the switch into reverse, turning the rear wheels anti-clockwise to make it pivot and change direction," Swagat explained.
Though remote control systems were allowed for use in controlling the robots, most teams preferred using wires to control the robots electrically. Moreover the rules for Robowars forbid the use of IC engines.
The Little Devil's destructive power came from the pneumatic device driving its arm.
"We designed the Little Devil to lift its opponent with this arm here and topple it," Zeeshan said, pointing to the metal arm that now lay stretched out in to the front of the machine. "It is powered by a pneumatic pump," he told us. While we stood there admiring the Devil, every once in a while we turned to see other robots filing past, each painted colourfully and exuding menace in the weaponry they carried that was designed for destruction.
Weapons Systems permitted by the rules for the Robowars included among others, liquid projectiles, flame-based weapons, any kind of explosive or intentionally ignited solid, radio jamming, tazers, tesla coils, other high voltage devices, un-tethered projectiles, and tethered projectiles in any direction are allowed with each having a maximum tether of 4 feet.
I thought this was as liberal a license for violence as any one could come up with for machines, and would test the contestants for innovation and a certain entrepreneurial streak. At stake was Rs. 45,000, and pride, and yes, prejudice as teams quietly went about fancying their chances against the rest.
The Robowars knockout rounds were held at the SOM Well. The seating was full to overflowing as robots engaged in 'Mortal Combat'. Cheers would erupt as robots jockeyed for positions, maneuvering in the enclosure to deliver that knockout blow. It wasn't enough that you built a robot, you had to make it work against an opponent. The event tested everyone involved – the engineers, the robots, and the audience. The latter glued to the action.
Standing there and watching the enthusiasm of the participants and the audience it is easy to believe in the potential for entrepreneurship if an idea gets hold of you sufficiently enough to want to explore it. At places such as these the spirit of competition can sufficiently fire thinking and maybe spur innovations to solve problems at local levels.
And Robotics has the potential to do just that. Maybe the next time the IIT-B Tech Fest comes around we might see participants competing with robots designed to solve just such problems that affect people locally, and maybe make a difference to their lives.
And what might those problems be?

Let's have everything refreshed and re-planned to welcome the brand new 2017. Look in the mirror and call today the best day. What reflects your good look on that day? The key is your eyebrows.
Look Rested Every day
Not all girls have ideal eyebrows which they can flaunt proudly. Well-groomed and well-defined shapes let you look rested and even change your overall look. No matter what age you are, always prepare a tweezer and eyebrow pencils at home to prepare your daily subtle, modern and glowing look.
Avoid Tragic Eyebrows
Some girls love exaggerated eyebrows but their effects vary on different people.. Wrong colors, wrong shapes and over-filled brows would let people think that you look unnatural. On the other hand, unkempt eyebrows cannot create a good impression on others.
Perfect Your Makeup Finish
Eyebrow shapes enhance your beauty and makeup effects. When shaped properly, they bring out your eyes and highlight your best features.
Let's find out the perfect eyebrow shape for your face shape.
Oval: The Ideal Face Shape
I will say you are lucky with such face shape as it is considered as the ideal shape! Flat eyebrows with a little arch will work best for you. Also, avoid dramatic and exaggerated eyebrows that ruin your nice face shape.
Jessica Alba looks good with flat eyebrows.
Round Shaped Faces Need Arches
For round-faced girls, their face shape lack angles and they hope to make face look longer. All you need to do is to avoid round eyebrows as they make your jaws even rounder. Both high arched and soft arched eyebrows help create a slender face shape and a modern, intellectual look.
Kate Winslet
Arches Also Suit Square-Shaped Faces
Prominent jaw and chin and high forehead are the main features of people who have a square face shape. You will look great by balancing your jaw line. As arches slim down the face, you may create soft or high arches with defined and sharp peaks. And you may adjust the thickness according to your preference.
Flat eyebrows do not fit Diane Kruger so she always picks angled brows.
Heart-Shaped Face, A Lovely Shape
Miranda Kerr has a cute, heart-shaped face.
To me, it's a lovely face. Heart-shaped faces are wider at the brow and cheekbones but narrower at the chin. You may keep slightly thick eyebrows to diminish the look of your forehead. Round brow shape also softens your pointed chin. If you really love peaks, create a controlled arch could give you a feminine look.
Recommended Products
I like using brow pencil first and cake powder next. To me, those with good colors and multi-functional will be the ideal one. I recommend Kevyn Aucoin The Precision Brow Pencil as it helps define, shape and thicken eyebrows with colors I like. And I definitely need its spoolie brush to comb my eyebrows.
Clinique Instant Lift For Brows is a two-in-one automatic brow pencil. The pearlized highlighter creates a contrast and definition on eyes.
I like applying gel-cream on eyebrows. LANCÔME Sourcils Gel Waterproof Eyebrow Gel-Cream helps structure and fill in the look of brows. The gel formula allows easy application and a smooth, gliding texture. It's great for building up a natural or more defined brow shape.
I saw many girls having perfect face makeup while neglecting their eyebrows. From now on, care your eyebrow shape. Don't follow any brow trends but choose one that is suitable for and flatters your face shape. Perfect brows make you look fresher, healthier and younger.

Engine Swap
The story concerning the engine changing has already begun in Perth where Martin has recognised that the oil pressure is lower than it could be. But there was another problem found out – little metal parties sticking in the oil filter. That was clear that the acting of our engine in the RBAR wouldn't have a long time. The decision has been made: "We really need a new engine." The flying officer Šonka has commanded and a technician Gordon had to agree. There was still only one question: where we get the new one. The only possibility was to buy it from somebody of the RBAR because we needed it as soon as possible.
Finally, we had a chance and made a deal with Nigel Lamb. We are going to buy the reserve engine he was racing with during the last season. It could be lighter and could have higher operation.
Fortunately, Gordon managed to change it during 2 days. Today, Martin flew to the racing airport without any problems where the opening ceremony was taking place. The first flights are coming tomorrow.

Career Code: What It's Like Behind the Scenes at NYFW's Biggest Shows
In honor of Hillary Kerr and Katherine Power's new book, The Career Code: Must-Know Rules for a Strategic, Stylish, and Self-Made Career ($17), we're kicking off an interview series featuring 17 questions (in honor of the book's 17 chapters) about the work lives of the most inspirational female leaders in the fashion industry. So far, we've tapped Rebecca Minkoff, Sally Singer, Rachel Zoe, and more. Up next? Claire Pritchett Hanlon.
Behind every great fashion show are hours and hours of preparation that go into the few short minutes of perfection; Claire Pritchett Hanlon knows this well, her artistic DNA exists in the details of major NYFW shows. As design director for the creative agency Prodject, Claire dreams up the sets you'll later see all over your Instagram feed.
Hanlon began her career as an architect in Los Angeles, but a move to New York sent her down a new path in fashion. From designing buzzworthy runways to pop-up shops and exhibitions, Claire's job is the career you never knew you wanted—until now.
Keep reading for a chance to get to know Hanlon and hear all her best career advice.
"I design sets for runway shows, pop-up shops, exhibitions, and other fashion and beauty events."
"People are usually surprised that my job even exists and that I stay busy all year."
"I wore a black silk dress and heels. I had just moved here from California and thought this seemed like what New York designers would wear. I still cringe a little when I think about it, because I got the job and quickly realized that the dress code was basically T-shirts and cutoffs."
"Miuccia [Prada]! I don't think there is anyone more inspiring in the industry. I've found that American fashion designers may see other designers as peers or competition, but they all know Miuccia Prada is the queen. I think she's inspiring as a woman and a designer and a business owner."
"Instagram/Snapchat, Dashwood Books, industry friends, Business of Fashion."
"I don't have any one big regret. I could have done a million things differently, though. I wish I'd taken on small low-budget gigs when I was younger and it didn't matter much. I should have written down more of the hilarious and exciting experiences I had working in the photoshoot world, because those years moved very quickly and I met so many amazing people along the way. I could have been more deliberate about sharing my ideas and work through the years; social media changes so quickly that it's impossible to know exactly the right way take advantage of it."
"Personal compatibility, technical skills (graphic design, computer-aided drafting, and 3D drawing skills)—at the end of the day, I'm hiring someone to do a job. Willingness and ability to rise to any occasion; a wide range of interests knowledge of film, art, fashion, architecture, furniture, and interior design; and a sense of humor."
"I can't feel powerful if I don't feel comfortable. For important meetings, I make sure to have my nails and hair done and wear clothes I know fit well. I carry a nice leather handbag and notebook. I love going uptown (downtown, now) to the magazines and seeing women dressed up in heels every day. It takes years of practice to look comfortable in uncomfortable clothes, and I'm afraid I've missed that boat."
Mansur Gavriel Mini Lady Tote ($750); Smythson Panama Notebook ($80).
"Ha! She'd probably say I don't know when to quit."
"I leave the office and take a walk around the block. I don't smoke, but I take little breaks outside once or twice a day. If I'm stuck, it's usually because I need to get fresh air (and maybe some chocolate). On a broader scale, I think getting a change of scenery is always inspiring. Even just getting on a plane. You know how some people are more prone to crying on planes? I always have grand ideas on planes. I try to write down my thoughts on the plane because that limbo space is great for getting perspective."
"I think the most important thing is to work every day in a way that people will be sad when you quit and never mad (or worse, happy). And have a very good excuse like a better opportunity. In a small industry like fashion, your career advances could become good connections for your old bosses, and vice versa."
"I order the Mexican caesar salad from Taco Bar on Bowery almost every day. If I don't have dinner plans, I'll also have a fish taco or two. It's the perfect salad, with dairy-free dressing and half an avocado. Ask for a few corn chips instead of croutons to make it gluten-free."
"I graduated from architecture school at the height of the recession, and that has definitely colored my entire career. I've always been so grateful for the jobs I've had and have been reluctant to take big risks. I think this is quite common for people my age, but it's a mistake to forget that jobs are meant to be beneficial to both the employer and the employee. On the flip side, I've noticed that many entry-level employees in 2016 do not have that same sense of loyalty and are used to seeing people rise to stardom very quickly thanks to the internet, and they expect the same for themselves. I think there's a balance to be found somewhere in there."
"Marc Jacobs (the person and the company and all the associated dogs and PR people). The Marc Jacobs social media team is on FIRE right now. They have done an amazing job keeping their social media personal, funny, and fun, and I love that Marc is unapologetically himself online and in person.
"Lucas Lefler: Lucas was our intern at Stefan Beckman Studios and has always been a master of the internet. I have so much to learn from him. Go, Lucas!"
"IllStudio: It's a Paris-based design studio. The company's posts are always clever and always its own work.
"MPNails: Madeline Poole always has the best nail designs.
"Vashtie and Erika Bearman (formerly @OscarPRgirl) are my two favorite stylish people to follow. They are on opposite ends of the spectrum, but both do a great job sharing their lives in a way that feels like it might just actually be that awesome."
"My mornings are very relaxed these days. I live and work in NoLIta, so I can get up pretty late. I listen to Hot97 (another great Instagram follow!) in the mornings to get pumped up for the day (I'm sure the neighbors love that). I spend about 15 minutes on my hair and makeup, pick out some clothes, and stop by the grocery store downstairs for a big bottle of sparkling water and some oatmeal and berries for breakfast. Then I walk five blocks to my office. I eat breakfast right when I get to the office while I catch up on emails and finish waking up. I always need something in my stomach before I can do much of anything.
"In the evenings, as long as the weather is okay, I walk across the Manhattan Bridge and back for exercise. Sometimes with a friend; sometimes alone. It's not the most famous walking bridge, but it's not busy and I love the views. I stop eating well before bedtime, and I almost always get eight hours of sleep on the nose. I slept so little in architecture school that I feel like I'm still making up for it. It makes a huge difference in my attitude and disposition if I have good sleep, so I definitely make it a priority."
"'Move to New York!' When I met my husband (who is from here), he thought it was so funny that I moved to New York without a job or an apartment. In his mind, that only happened in the movies. I was frustrated by my job prospects where I was, and people told me to do just that. And I am so glad they did, because it's been a great place for me."
"Right now, we're scouting a lot of locations for spring/summer shows and other upcoming projects. There are fewer and fewer empty, open spaces in New York, so we're having to be very creative."
Who should we interview next? Let us know in the comments below!

A shower caddy is a very helpful device for aiding to keep the bathroom neat, organized and also safe. Not only do they keep products neatly arranged, minimizing the amount of clutter in the bathroom, yet they likewise make the bathtub as well as shower area much safer. Bathrooms are the website of several house accidents, most of which are triggered by slides or drops. By keeping the things you commonly utilize in the shower arranged as well as within very easy reach, you will develop a safer bathroom environment.
There are several kinds of shower caddies offered. Some are designed to hang in a stationary placement over the shower head, with racks, baskets, pockets or hooks to be utilized to arrange shower accessories. You might select a stainless-steel shower caddy, or possibly a plastic one, based on your preferences. Among the benefits of a plastic caddy is that they are light, as well as much less most likely to damage the fiberglass shower border if it ought to take place to drop. However, as long as the caddy is secure, a stainless-steel design is an excellent as well as exceptionally resilient selection.

As an example, if you make use of multiple little bottles of various items, you may need much shorter racks or several pockets as well as hooks. On the other hand, if you tend to buy big family-sized products, you will certainly intend to make sure the shelves are high enough to suit them.

Comments about Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Teflon Surface Protector:
Cleaning the toilet is a disgustingly necessary job - unless you want to expose yourself to countless bacterium and horrific odors (imagine what the guests will say...), you must do it no matter what. Thankfully, I found Clorox's *Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner* to get around scrubbing and having to get a bit too close to the latrine.
These are not miniscule little Alka-Seltzer style tablets that you drop in and let dissolve. Nope, these are pebble-sized clunkers of bleach and bromine that you dunk into the rear corner of your water tank; within five to ten minutes you should begin to notice the effects. My toilet bowl looks a lot shinier, and the hard-water stains are beginning to fade, though gradually. Instead of the musty odor which was beginning to proliferate my bathroom now during these humid summer months, I have a light, refreshing aroma of bleach.
The first time you add it, I suggest flush two to three times in 15 - 20 minutes intervals, just to get it into your toilet's water system. *Use only in toilets that you use, especially ones that get a lot of traffic! These are highly corrosive if let to sit too long.* Also do yourself a favor and DO NOT buy the 'Rain Scent' tablets - they are way, way too strong. Just the plain ones, it'll save you lots of headaches.
It's not going to get my toilet amazingly shiny brand-new white, but it has gotten it pretty clean all-in-all. We have pretty hard water here in Southern California, but this is lightening up the stains, though it takes a few days for them to completely disappear.
It's 100 times better than the Rain Scent tablets. Unless you hate the smell of bleach, don't buy the scented ones - they are sickeningly strong.
Comments about Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Teflon Surface Protector:
Not good if you have minerals in your water.
I bought it hoping that this will keep my toilet bowl clean. After all it is a Clorox product. I dropped them in after cleaning the toilet one night. Within a month, we have ring stain again from our water. I'll just stick to the toilet brush and cleaner next time.
The fumes are overwhelming. Don't use it if you bathroom is near your bedroom, kitchen, or dining room.
Comments about Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Teflon Surface Protector:
Cleaning the toilet is probably the most disgusting of all household chores but one way to make the task a little more bearable is by using an automatic cleaner. I have tried just about every one of them at some point and one that is as good as any is **Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner.**
**Cleaner Facts and Commentary:**
Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner is a tablet- style automatic toilet bowl cleaner. It is dropped directly into the tank where it combines with the water to release its toilet- bowl cleaning chemicals. With each flush, the chemically treated water is flushed into the bowl, helping to keep it clean between scrubbings and helping to make the bathroom smell fresher.
Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner works well at keeping the bathroom smelling fresh and this is reason alone to give the product a try. You don't have to remember to do anything because it does the work for you, releasing itself with each flush. As long as a good amount of time (at least 30 minutes) has passed between flushes, the next flush will pack a good amount of freshening power. Flush too quickly and the tablet will not have enough time to send its chemicals through the water. It also helps keep the bowl a little cleaner than usual so that less scrubbing is necessary when it comes time to clean.
Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner is relatively inexpensive and each tablet is good for about three weeks. The tablet is designed to dissolve slowly and last up to a month, but I find that it doesn't last quite this long. Still, it does remain strong for three weeks and it makes the bathroom smell fresh and clean.
**My Bottom Line:**
Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner is yet another quality product from Clorox and one that earns an easy recommendation. It helps keep the toilet bowl reasonably clean, but its best feature is its ability to keep the bathroom smelling fresh. Regardless of your living arrangements, a little added freshness to the bathroom is always welcome and this Clorox product helps you achieve that goal.
Help to keep the bowl looking clean between scrubbings
Chemical scent not the greatest, but better than the alternative
Comments about Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Teflon Surface Protector:
I like this product. First I clean my toilet, flush and let the water level drop and then place the tablet. I keep it away from my working toilet parts like the directions state and never have had a problem. I like lifting my lid and the toilet smelling nice and being clean. Clorox has great products. This one keeps my toilet smelling fresh and looking clean. I feel it cuts down on having to clean it manually. Each tablet lasts about a month. I normally buy this product when it is on sale and try to use a coupon too. I think it is a good value to help cut down on manually cleaning toilets.
Comments about Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Teflon Surface Protector:
I use the Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaner with Teflon Surface Protector in all of my bathrooms. You need to clean the toilet first, then flush and then drop the tablet into the toilet tank just being careful that it does not interfere with the movement of the plunger and whatever else the mechanism is called. Do not flush for half an hour. What I especially like is that it keeps my bathroom and toilet comparatively clean and fresh smelling. Because we have well water, I do not get any of the hard water mineral build up. I prefer to use the white tablets, but I know that a lot of people like the blue, but just give me the white tablets with bleach. I have three bathrooms and keep spare Clorox Tablets stocked in each of them. As far as the claim that they last 4 months, it just depends on how many people are in your house and just how often the toilets are flushed. We do not get the 4 months, but that is not a concern I have. I just want the freshness the Clorox Automatic Toilet Bowl Cleaners imparts to my bathrooms. I have found that the Clorox Toilet Bowl Cleaners do last longer than other brands and I do believe that they do a better job. I am very happy with them and will continue to use them and I feel they are well worth the cost.

I'm rationing my gigabytes this week (due to all that online shopping for our new coffee pot), so I'll post many more fall photos later this week. In the meantime, someone asked me a question about cleaning a light fixture like one of mine, so I thought I would repost my cleaning method.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Do you need to clean the glass on a rope-covered light fixture, lantern or candle holder, and the rope can't be removed? I have a tip for you.
It all started with the rattan rope pendant light we purchased for our stair landing. When we first took it out of the box, it had a cloudy film on the glass globe, and the shape of the globe prevented the removal of the rope. It was quickly apparent that trying to clean all the little areas of glass between the rattan pieces wasn't going to work. It just made things worse. Since I'm pretty obsessive about my house, I had to come up with an effective cleaning method if I was going to live with this light fixture. What I ended up doing worked like a charm, but you know what happened after the fixture was hanging for a while.
That's right. It got dirty again. Funny how that happens.
I keep canned air on hand to blow the dust off this fixture, but it sometimes needs a more thorough cleaning. Here's the method. After removing the globe from the fixture, I placed it in my bathtub and sprayed the globe liberally (inside & out) with Windex. I'm sure I could have used vinegar, but I had 2 reasons for not using it. (1) When I clean something with vinegar, I usually have to polish it quite a bit to get rid of streaks, and I couldn't do that with this rope-covered globe. (2) I didn't want the rope to smell like vinegar. Anyway, after spraying the globe with Windex, I rinsed it with a lot of warm water and allowed it to dry overnight in the tub.
I had dry rope and clean, streak-free glass the next day.
Here's the before and after.
Ah, much better.
I have a similar looking wire-covered candle holder with a rope handle that I also clean with this method. Hope this helps some of you.
NOTE: If you're concerned about the possibility of Windex turning your rope blue, you can use the Windex Vinegar Multi-Surface Cleaner. It's clear and doesn't smell like vinegar.
NOTE: If you're concerned about the possibility of Windex turning your rope blue, you can use the Windex Vinegar Multi-Surface Cleaner. It's clear and doesn't smell like vinegar.
All is well the Keweenaw.

FRAMINGHAM (07/17/2000) - We installed the Novell Inc. Modular Authentication Services (NMAS) software on a network consisting of a NetWare 5.1 server running on a Compaq Computer Corp. Proliant 5500R with dual 550-MHz Xeon processors and 512M bytes of memory. The server had one 9G-byte disk with a single SYS volume and second 9G-byte disk split into four volumes.
The client system was a Pentium 400-MHz class machine with 128M bytes of memory running Windows 98. We installed the NMAS client software to this machine along with the latest NetWare client from Novell. We then attached the Keytronic fingerprint scanner to the parallel port of the workstation.
To test the overall functionality of the product, we established several users and tried to log on with the wrong set of credentials to see what would happen.
We then attempted to access restricted volumes with a nonauthorized user. From an administration perspective, we looked at establishing multiple rights for 100 users to measure the amount of time required and the level of difficulty.
We also looked at the auditing and reporting of security events.
