"Bath salts" and other innocent-sounding products on the shelves of "head shops" and other stores in Ireland are giving an increasing number of people a legal high, with the same buzz that comes from alcohol and illegal drugs — but without a hangover.
Retail outlets and Internet sites that specialize in drug paraphernalia — traditionally things like pipes and bongs, New Age herbs and the like are increasingly coming under fire — literally.
In recent weeks, two such stores were torched in what Garda (police) believe may be a counterattack from drug-pushers, who feel the stores are stealing their clients.
The "legal highs" come in packages whose names suggest it's an innocent product; in reality, it's for getting high.
Packets of these so-called bath salts or incense are in fact meant to be smoked, snorted or swallowed. Nobody is putting these salts in their bathtubs.
The Los Angelers Times interviewed a customer of one of these shops in Dublin — Chris, last name kept anonymous, a bookeeper.
He says he enjoys popping two or three "bath salts" a night to get him high.
The Times reports that "the makers of Snow 'bath salts,' for instance, inform buyers that adding their 'fine white powder' will make them chatty and peppy, but warn against the presence of heavy machinery in the bathroom."
"I find it much less debilitating than alcohol," Chris told The Times.
The bath salts, among other oddly packaged products, are becoming popular for partying in Ireland. According to Irish journalists, a number of head shops, many of which are open until the early hours of the morning, have popped up around the country in the last 12 months, since the economy went into a tailspin.
Authorities are not yet able to regulate the shops and their products.
Dublin politician and Labor Party member Joe Costello told The Times that "nobody knows precisely" what's in the packages.
"They're labeled as 'not for human consumption,' but when you go into the shop, you're told how to consume it, how to inject it," lawmaker Costello said.
"We have a range of substances that are sold that really are not regulated, that nobody knows precisely what's in them, nobody knows the quantities that are being sold or taken."
Last month, the Irish government passed a bill o outlaw a range of substance sold at these head shops, including mephedrone, which is likened to the Ecstasy in its effects on the body and mind. The ban goes into effect in June.
Shane O'Connor, who runs a number of head shops in the Irish capital, says he agrees with tighter controls and guidelines being implemented in window displays, as well as age limits for customers. But he says the idea of closing down the stores is absurd.
"Prohibition doesn't remove demand," he says. "The only way to remove demand for illegal drugs is to offer safer legal alternatives."

Alex, Alex, Alex...
He should have stuck to suggesting five minute strikes. Alex Floum is back at 9-11 Blogger with a spot of debunking of Judy Wood's laser beam. Unfortunately, he makes a thorough hash of it right from the start:
The main argument of folks pushing the theory that the Twin Towers were brought down with directed energy weapons is that conventional explosives (like thermite) could not have pulverized the concrete into dust as observed in videos of the event.
Conventional explosives like thermite? But thermite is not an explosive, it's an incendiary. After a video clip of the south tower collapse, he shows us explosives blowing up what appears to a be a large earthen berm, which is a pretty cool video actually except that he gives us no context and (of course) cannot claim it was blown up by thermite. Then we get several more videos of explosions of dirt piles. Look, explosives can turn dirt into dust! Who would have guessed?
He closes with this:
The above videos show conventional explosives (they are examples of a method called "cast blasting", which is very low-tech. Cast blasting just means that holes are pre-drilled and explosives placed in the holes).
So that's how they did it! They just drilled holes in 110 concrete floors and placed explosives in them. Brilliant! And nobody noticed this?
The comments are, if anything, even worse. John A Mitchell from France contributes this bon mot:
Useful video but I am not completely convinced. Sure, on the outside that is what we saw. But in the interior, the back bone supporting columns, the elevators, filing cabinets, computers etc were reduced to dust. Can you imagine the energy to do that ! The amount of energy can be calculated by the science. A small atomic bomb could have done the job with less preparation and giving the sufficient energy ?
Hoverer the small parts of bones found on surrounding roof buildings would be explained by explosions that you have shown.
Well, Professor Jones shows up and admirably has none of this latter nonsense:
John states: "But in the interior, the back bone supporting columns, the elevators, filing cabinets, computers etc were reduced to dust. "
I challenge that statement, and ask for references to back it up. Really -- the statement requires evidentiary support, not unsubstantiated repetition.
Au contraire, mon ami, I have photos of an intact brief case, calculator, wallet, the antenna which was on the North Tower, and steel columns (in pieces, yes -- explosive do that).
But no mention that thermite has been wrongly described as a conventional explosive.
You know the funniest part about this? I agree that Judy Woods' laser beam is an absolutely loony idea, so I should by rights be on Floum's side in this matter. But he's not trying to debunk it and accept the quite rational idea that any pulverization of the concrete occurred because the building collapsing (or more precisely, because of it hitting the ground) instead he's got his own theory which is only marginally less insane than Judy's.
I feel like I'm listening to a bunch of knuckleheads arguing over whether Randy Moss or Marvin Harrison is the better passer.

FAVOR Trailer – "A friend helps you move. A good friend helps you move a body."
Kip Desmond has gotten everything he's ever wanted: a thriving career, beautiful wife, and an affluent lifestyle, all of which is put in jeopardy when Abby, the waitress with whom he's having a casual fling, is accidentally killed in their motel room. Desperate, he ends up on the doorstep of childhood friend Marvin Croat and asks him for a massive favor: help get rid of the body.
Marvin, an unemployed and divorced loser, agrees to make the body disappear, but the reality of actually performing this gruesome act drives Marvin into a state of deep depression and guilt. He turns to Kip for solace and comfort, since he's the only other person who knows what's happened, but Kip, wanting to stay removed from the situation, insists the two keep their distance. Increasingly angered by what he feels is a callous betrayal, Marvin begins to ask Kip for favors that soon grow in size and difficulty.
When Kip tries to refuse, Marvin threatens to go to the authorities with information about Abby's death. Although Marvin's ploy works at first, eventually Kip refuses to give into this blackmail, forcing Marvin to resort to more violent methods of getting the payback he feels he deserves. This leads both men to murderous acts neither had ever suspected themselves capable of.

Microsoft Windows XP SP2 - Installation and Tweaking Guide
Ah, services. Useful little things - but only when they're needed. If your system is running services that it doesn't need, then it's wasting memory. XP Pro users can control their services by going to Start } Run and typing "services.msc" and hitting enter. Behold the mighty service manager! Rather than go through all the possible services myself, I'll link to this site:
Black Viper has done an awesome job of listing just about every service you're ever likely to come across (updated for SP2, as well), and also hosts registry files for simple, "all-in-one" tweakage. There's also some good information for XP Home users wishing to change their services as well.
NB: If you decide to disable the "Automatic Update" service, you may have issues using Windows Update on the Microsoft site as of Service Pack 2. If you plan to be updating regularly, consider leaving the "Automatic Update" service as "Automatic".
User Tracking
This tweak is valid for XP Pro, but with any (or no) Service Pack installed. By default, XP tracks each individual's file access patterns - which documents they access, when and how often, and then customizes some Windows features around this data. An example of this is the "personalized" default start menu. If, like me, you use the classic start menu, or just want to speed your box up a little by reducing the system overhead, you can disable user tracking by going to Start } Run and typing "gpedit.msc".
USB Polling
Anyone who has made the unfortunate move of buying an USB modem will know how many CPU cycles those things crunch. The same goes for most USB devices - and, by extension, the mere act of searching for any attached USB devices. By default, XP searches for newly connected USB devices every 1ms. You can change this to every 5ms (provided you can wait the extra 4ms) by altering (or adding) the following registry value.
Navigate to
and then create a REG_SZ key called "IdleEnable" before setting its value to "1". You'll get a minor (perhaps not easily noticeable) improvement - but an improvement all the same!
Processor Power +
This tweak, like the couple above, can be performed in XP before or after Service Pack installation. There are a set of various functions that XP performs approximately once every three days, and then only when the system is idle. These functions could include disk defragmentation-like processes, file sorting, et cetera. As actually executing these programs may take some time (between 10 and 15 minutes), don't use this tweak and expect immediate results.
To force XP to complete any queued tasks, open Start } Run and type:
Rundll32.exe advapi32.dll,ProcessIdleTasks
before pressing "Enter". Your hard drive light should flash with activity while the task are being carried out, or you can examine the services running by opening the Task Manager (Ctrl + Alt + Delete).

Great reporting in the Saudi Gazette by Mariam Nihal about the new law that is to go into effect this month in Saudi Arabia, that no one can just hail a cab on a city street. A link to the story is here, and it's pasted in below. Women rely on taxis and private car services since they can't drive themselves. This law will make it just a little less convenient for women to get around. I wonder if they will have taxi stands where one can go to get a ride at malls and the women's colleges and universities.
Story by Mariam Nihal
JEDDAH — Starting Oct. 22, taxi drivers will be banned
from random passenger pickups at public locations including malls,
airports, commercial outlets and hospitals. According to the new law,
passengers who require a cab will need to call and make a booking in
Taxis and limousines are the only mode of public transport available to
commute within the city for women in the Kingdom. Since women are not
allowed to drive in Saudi Arabia, public transport is the most relied
upon mode of travel used by women who cannot afford a private driver and
car. The new no-hailing cab law is a cause of concern for women
completely dependent on public transport.
"Our streets are not even numbered yet. How am I to call this taxi to my
house? The law has no relevance to our current 'women cannot drive'
position," Nermeen Asad, a 45-year-old Saudi housewife living in Jeddah,
told Saudi Gazette.
According to Transport Minister Jubara Al-Suraisry, official guidelines
require Saudi taxi companies to be solely owned by Saudi nationals in a
bid to facilitate Saudization. Taxi companies will be obliged to meet
traffic department standards and maintain a quota of vehicles on their
operating license, depending on the size of the city and its population.
"This no-hailing law is just more of an inconvenience. It is common
knowledge that women face harassment on Saudi roads. Now if I am in a
situation that needs me to hail a cab and go home to my child in case of
an emergency I will have nowhere to go," Saba Afshaan, a Pakistani
teacher living in Dhahran, said.
"Wait. What will happen to limousines? The whole idea of a limousine in
Saudi Arabia is that along with private cabs you can book them in
advance and pay a premium charge. So why is public transport going to be
treated as private? Is it even technologically equipped to meet the
high rising demand of public transport users?" said Husna Mohammad, a
student of graphic designing in Riyadh.
Taxi drivers found guilty of violating the new rules will be fined SR200-400 and face possible license cancellation.
Noor Abdul Ghafoor, a Pakistani private driver in Jeddah, told Saudi
Gazette the move will be an added burden on cab drivers. "We get more
business because we will be competing within the same category now. Cabs
usually make more money because they can pick up whoever they want off
the street. Now this will cost them dearly."
Nashwa Ali, a Canadian teacher living in Jeddah, welcomed the law but
was worried it may not be enough. "The biggest metropolitan cities in
the world have cabs. New York, Tokyo, London and even Dubai. Guaranteed,
it is useful at times when you can't find a cab but the infrastructure
of any city allows you access to public transport at all times. That's
progress. Plus local taxi drivers are not used to the system. Not only
will they lose money, they might get fined in the process of learning
how to adapt to the new system."
An Automated Vehicle Locater system, which will be placed in each
vehicle for navigation purposes, will track and record information such
as location, speed and duration of operation.
Sami Abdullah, a business student in Jeddah, said taxi drivers in Dubai
are given Bluetooth devices to avoid using phones while driving and to
facilitate pick and drop services. "How will the drivers be trained in
such a short time to use the GPS systems and programs fitted inside cabs
that will help navigation and booking cabs? Most of them are
expatriates who don't speak Arabic. Most Saudi drivers don't speak
He said unlike Dubai, cab drivers in Saudi Arabia could barely speak
more than one language and lack basic communication skills.

Women express concern over 'no hailing taxi' law

What a completely senseless law. Don't allow women to drive; don't provide a bus system or public transport; don't allow taxis at major public places such as airports, shopping malls, hospitals, or in the streets. I think the message is clear: WOMEN SHOULD STAY AT HOME!! Back in about 1986, a law was introduced to prevent women from getting taxis home from the airport alone. The lasted a few days only. This "ban the taxis from the streets" law was first introduced 18 months ago. I doubt anyone will take any notice of it at all. Cities need roaming taxis. Especially cities with no addresses!!ReplyDelete

Black hair is more coarse and fragile than all other hair types. Black hair should be carefully maintained and properly conditioned to encourage growth and length retention.
Black hair should be shampooed no more than once per week as washing more frequently can dry out the hair. Hair should be moisturized constantly as it is difficult for natural oils on the scalp to penetrate the entire hair shaft due to the thickness and curliness of the hair.
Experts suggest that black women should make sure that all hair products used contain moisturizing ingredients. Water-based moisturizers should be used to ensure that they are able to penetrate the hair shaft. Protein treatments should be used to strengthen the hair, but too much protein may harden and break the hair. Hair should be partially air dried or dried under a hooded dryer before manually blow-drying to reduce tension on the hair caused by blow-drying with a comb. Hair should never be blow-dried using a brush.
Weaves may be used as a protective style while growing out the hair. Properly applied weaves can reduce stress on the hair as well as breakage. Weaves should never be bonded in as this application method can cause even more breakage.

This will be our last tech check in with ElRoy Carr, Tony Bevis and Kelly Cook, who are all part of the Kansas City Fitness Program. Since January, they have been using tech to help them achieve their fitness goals. Let's see how they did…
ElRoy Carr – Personal Trainer
I made it my New Year's resolution to be in the best shape of my life, and I'm well on my way. The Jawbone Up24 has helped me to stay accountable to my goals. It is one thing for you to know you skipped a workout, and it's another thing when you see it on your daily readouts. In a previous post, I mentioned I recorded 11 workouts in 11 days, and it was great to see all that progress logged in the Jawbone Up24 app.
I also like that I learned the ins and outs of the Jawbone Up24 and using the app. This helps me counsel my clients when they ask me about the best fitness apps and/or accessories.
Tony Bevis – aka Coach B
I've really been getting into monitoring my progress with the Fitbit One. There are a couple reasons why I really like it: I can see my daily progress on the accessory. I don't have to sync it with my device to know how many steps I've walked, total distance I've gone and calories I've burned. This is perfect for my on-the-go lifestyle. My buddy and I have also become "friends" via the Fitbit app and have daily competitions on who can walk the most steps. My goal is to hit 10,000 steps per day. If I'm low on steps, I'll do a quick lap around the office or neighborhood. I've also continued to train for my next half marathon, and running miles really helps pump up my step count.
Overall, my experience using technology to work toward my fitness goals has been great. It's really added a new dimension to my accountability and helps me to remember to focus on ME!
Kelly Cook – Weight Loss Superstar
My New Year's resolution was to lose 30 pounds, in 2014, and I've lost about 12 pounds since January. I'm happy with my progress, but I'm going to continue to work toward my goal weight.
I had the opportunity to use the Fitbit Aria Wi-Fi Smart Scale and the Jawbone Up24. My favorite part about using technology to help me reach my fitness goals is that it took all the guess work out of my progress. You know down to the T your weight, body fat percentage, steps taken, calories eaten and burned, what times during the day you got your most activity, how much sleep you got...the list goes on and on. You can then take all that information and put it into an action plan.
We hope you'll connect with ElRoy, Tony and Kelly and continue following their weight loss journey. Thanks to all of you for sharing your Kansas City Fitness Program journey with us!
Disclosure: We loaned them a Jawbone Up24, a Fitbit One, a Runtastic Heart Rate Monitor and a Fitbit Aria Wi-Fi Smart Scale.

Since the familiar English word Scot refers to a native or inhabitant of Scotland, it is tempting to assume that this is a reference to that country. Indeed, that association seems to have existed since at least the 1500s, when the alternative […]more
The meaning of 'Auld Lang Syne' and other Scottish words
The following is adapted from the Oxford Dictionary of Word Origins. Scotland has given English many words—some from the Gaelic language, some from Scots, and others reflecting links to further shores. The Scots poet Robert Burns (1759–96) has also weighed in with memorable expressions. 'Auld Lang Syne' Anyone who has ever been to a New […]more

Author: Adam Nicholson, paper back, 281 pages. First published in 2003 under the title "Power and Glory".
This book is about the group of 50 men who pored over greek and hebrew texts, comparing previous translations and arguing with each other for the seven years it took to produce the King James Version (KJV) of the Bible. Against the background of Jacobean England they worked in a complex current of ideas and political change. It was the time of the Gunpowder plot and the worst outbreak of the plague.

D & D Chocolates
D & D Chocolate have launched the first Everyday Range for Dairy Free Chocolate. Including 50g and 100g bar of dairy, egg, gluten and wheat free chocolate in new funky brown and cream packaging, costing £1.25 and £2.45 respectively.
The 20 foil-wrapped chocolate flower shapes are 4cm flowers, really beautiful and detailed roses, carnations, ox-eye daisies, daffodils and... um... a generic flower we couldn't identify! These would make fantastic afterdinner treats for grown ups, and dairy free kids would probably spend hours unwrapping and playing with them (and not eating because they're so pretty!). £5.75 for a pack of 20
The chocolate animal shapes include cats, rabbits, elephants, bears, all products are gluten and dairy free and vegan.
The chocolate drops are more like discs, embossed with a four-petalled flower emblem. £1.99 for 70g.
The chocolate chips are a perfect size for making chocolate chip cookies or for enhancing a chocolate cake, and remove the need to bash up a dairy free chocolate bar with a rolling pin to make unsatisfactory homemade chocolate chips! £2.99 for 160g
Available to buy online, 100g bar is £2.45, 50g bar is £1.25, chocolate chips are £2.99, chocolate drops are £1.99 for 70g and the animal shapes are £6.89 for 120g of individually foil wrapped chocolate shapes.

BANGKOK, Feb 11 -- Thailand's Foreign Ministry has collected evidence on the recent Thai-Cambodian border clashes to clarify to a meeting of the United Nations Security Council in New York on Monday, the ministry spokesman said here Friday.
Thani Thongphakdi, Director-General of the Department of Information, said the briefing was expected to last about an hour or an hour and a half.
It would be a closed-door meeting to be attended by Thai Foreign Minister Kasit Piromya, his Cambodian counterpart Hor Namhong, and Indonesian Foreign Minister Marty Natalegawa in his capacity as the current chair of the 10-member Association of Southeast Asian Nations (ASEAN) in which Thailand and Cambodia both are members.
The meeting has been scheduled at 10am local time, he said.
Mr Thani said Thailand would present an accurate account of recent developments to the Security Council as well as provide information about the state of the overall bilateral relations between Thailand and Cambodia, which have progressed well in political, economic and social aspects, with amicable interactions between the peoples of both countries.
It will also emphasise Thailand's commitment and efforts to resolve the situation peacefully through dialogue.
Thailand would also stress that it did not intend to start a war to invade another country.
None of the clashes that took place were initiated by Thailand. Thailand responded to Cambodia's provocation in self-defence while exercising utmost restraint. The Thai response was aimed only at military targets and confined to the areas of the clashes in an attempt to contain the incidents from escalating, he said.
Mr Thani said that during the flight transit in Paris, France, Mr Kasit would meet Asda Jayanama, chief of the Thai-Cambodian Joint Commission on Demarcation for Land Boundary (JBC).
Mr Asda will also be in Paris to meet the head of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organization (UNESCO) to clarify Thailand's stance on listing of Preah Vihear Temple as a UNESCO World Heritage Site and the request to put off the consideration of the temple management plan to be proposed by Cambodia as it was a sensitive issue and led to the clashes between Thailand and Cambodia.
The information prepared by Thailand included historical documents, maps, photos and video footages arould the contested area along Thai-Cambodia border and photos of the recent clashes and the damages caused by Cambodian weapons.
Mr Kasit's entourage comprises the ministry's experienced legal experts who are keen on the border issue--Permanent Secretary Theerakun Niyom, Department of Treaties and Legal Affairs Director Genral Ittiporn Boonprakong, Thai ambassador to the Netherlands Weerachai Pladisai and Mr Thani himself.

The most common for some cheap computer tables and furniture and kitchen utensils, low cost, processed by woodworking waste, high water absorption, from the hole with the interface, the edge of the plate can be identified. Manufacturers are often made by affixed to the test paper, veneer, plastic skin, edge with other materials, wrapping, and then made of colored paint processing. Poor manufacturers and distributors are often based on its real effect of fake, according to the purchaser of the raw materials do not understand, to such products to act as solid wood products.
More common in some low-cost or high-priced wooden furniture, because it is made of solid wood stitching, but also different wood species, the price is different, the compressive capacity due to different wood and the production process is very different, if Surface paint done well, exposure and moisture will crack.
More common in some ordinary computer desk and office furniture, home furnishings, for indoor exhibition booth decoration, waterproof moisture is not ideal. Easy to expand the crack, can not be used in the bathroom more than the wet water environment. But some bad manufacturers and dealers are often affixed with veneer MDF products to pretend to be deceiving consumers.

We tried.
It would have taken a lot more work (and money) than we were willing to put in, so we just updated them to make them more bearable. One was above John's desk and the other was in my ballet studio. We striped both of the walls black and white, so it may LOOK like the same wall, but it isn't :)
Also, apparently I deleted half of the photos off my camera between the time I did this (last month) and now. Oops. But you're all a very smart bunch and you really don't *need* pictures of the painting process, but if you want to see something similar, check out the CHANDELIER post. Sound good? Ok.
Here's John's first...
And here's the after! We originally picked out a globe scone cover for John's, but it wouldn't fit against the wall. Afterwards he decided he would rather get an Edison style lightbulb instead and leave it uncovered. I'd like to find him a larger Edison bulb so that it's a bit more balanced, but here we are.
So there it is- much more masculine than the original and better suited to his minimalist desk.
My sconce cover is also from Lowe's and DID fit. I think it was about $7, so the total overhaul was much cheaper than we had originally expected. I still don't love them on the walls, but since they aren't going anywhere, the updates helped. If you're stuck with ugly sconces, don't despair! A little paint, some updated (or removed) covers and you'll be much better off.
Or you could always use them for a coatrack ;)

Toronto, Canada-based toyco Spin Master has moved into Mexico, setting up a new office in the territory to expand its global reach.
Heading up the new operations will be Gerardo Yepez as president and GM of Spin Master Mexico. Yepez comes from Mega Brands, where he served as president of toys and also previously founded toy distribution company Mercasistemas, which was acquired by Mega Brands and became Mega Bloks LatinoAmerica. He also ran a sporting goods manufacturing and distribution company in Mexico that introduced Wilson Sporting Goods to the local market.
Spin Master Mexico expects to be operational during the first half of this year and will lead off with Bakugan Battle Brawlers later in the year. (The corresponding series is slated to air on Televisa.) Direct distribution of its other brands, including Air Hogs, Aquadoodle, Tech Deck and Moon Sand, will follow.

About a week ago a friend of mine added me to a new group on Facebook. It's a group of Health minded moms who are working hard to create healthy families. This wasn't the first time I joined a "healthy" group like this, and so I wasn't really expecting that much. The last group I was added to was also for Jewish folks, who wanted to cook healthy and such but ehh. Often times I find a similar thing with so-called healthy cooking magazines where the recipes are "lightened" up but still a far cry from truly being healthy. But I suppose as long as we are trying and doing the best we can, then we are on the right track. Hey, it's not like I'm miss perfect either!
However, this new Facebook group has completely astounded me. We're talking hard-core crunchy granola moms!!! In fact, I'm beginning to feel like the bad one since I'm not THAT strict when it comes to organics and natural products! But it is incredibly refreshing to join in conversations that I can add my comments (things I've learned or picked up along the way) and hear other peoples experiences and ideas as well.
The truth is that very often I feel like an outsider when it comes to my health ideologies. That I take herbs instead of antibiotics or that I visit chiropractors and naturopaths instead of medical doctors. The fact that I try hard to eat as fresh as possible because I sincerely believe that our government regulated industries are causing detriment to the nutritional value of our food (i.e controlling farms, GMO production, etc) So often times, when I'm with friends or family, I tend to keep quiet about the weird things I do, or eat.
I had FINALLY convinced my sister in law to taste my freshly juiced Wheatgrass and she spit it out saying it tasted like Moose balls …. (Or something like that) So you can see that often I feel like the Salmon (or Goldfish ) swimming upstream amongst the mainstream swimmers. I'm not complaining. I always was the one who enjoyed going my own way and doing my own thang but generally I tend to water down the things I tell people and keep the details to a minimum.
So I must say that this new Facebook group is really quite wonderful. Sure, I have many acquaintances that are health minded like me …. People who I've met online, or through my Doctors, but finding a group of Jewish women, all who were raised in the same type of system as me, and all who are looked upon as a bit "nutty," well, it's really enlightening to feel at home amongst these women.
No, I wasn't paid to advertise, but if you are feeling a little adventurous and want to add a little more natural to your life, then I highly recommend the Healthy Homes for Jewish Families group on Facebook. (you may have to request to join, I'm not sure. I was added against my will ) But feel free to look around. You might just learn something funky!

August's Full Moon was spectacular, as all of them are. There is something so peaceful about the moon. It helps calm the mind, giving one a time to decompress…to decompress and energize. I feel at my most creative at night, and gazing up at Luna in all her illuminated glory is one of the most inspiring things going.
It has been five days since I took her picture. We have been having rain just about every day, mostly in the form of scattered thunderstorms, and the 21st was no exception. I was worried that I might have to miss the photo session due to heavy cloud cover. Luckily, the clouds thinned enough for me to catch more of my monthly sighting shots.
August's Full Moon is known by a variety of names:
- Full Sturgeon Moon: this name was given by native American tribes as Sturgeon were most easily caught during this moon
- Full Red Moon: this name referred to weather and atmospheric conditions during the moon that could make it appear reddish when rising through hazy skies
- Blue Moon: a third Full Moon in a season with four is referred to as a Blue Moon (most seasons have three)
- Green Corn Moon & Grain Moon: growing crops grow tall during this time of year
The energy radiating from this last full moon in august has helped me kickstart a lethargic period in my creativity. The summer sun and the accompanying humidity has sucked the motivation out of my days. I am very ready for summer to be over. Autumn officially begins on the 22nd of next month. It won't be too soon for me.

Have I mentioned that I love what you can do with a piece of wood? What I did: took a piece of wood and painted a base coat (bottom), then crackling medium, then a white top coat. I then used my Cricut to cut out vinyl words to go on the sign- this idea I've gotten from several blogs, so I can't specifically say which one, because I've seen it done in a variety of ways. How could you make it easier? Forget the crackling step, and just paint your wood the color you want. You could sand it a little to distress it, but that's not even necessary unless you really want to. I think I might donate this to our MOPS auction that we have in the spring.

The previously published e-book on HAZARDOUS AREA CLASSIFICATION will be replaced shortly with an e-learning course (XPRTU) on the same subject. Watch this space for details. Or if you wish to be notified of the release Contact Us
Dear Friend,
You are here, reading this page, because you are well aware of hazardous areas. These areas (also known as Classified Locations) are those places where the risk of an explosion or fire is higher than normal, due to the kind of material stored, handled or processed in that area. This includes commonly known places such as petroleum storage tank farms and terminals, oil refineries, gas processing plants, chemical plants, warehouses that store hazardous chemicals and so on. If the engineering, operations and management of these areas does not follow well laid out principles of hazardous areas, then one could have an accident. In the recent past, there have been many such accidents, the root cause of which is a poor understanding of hazardous area classification.
For example, an incident that happened in an Ink Manufacturing unit in Danvers, Massachusetts, a few years back, flattened a large community of houses, miles away. The investigation showed a poor knowledge of hazardous areas amongst the operators.
Even more problematic are dust explosions. Not many people are aware that facilities that handle dust in large amounts, are also hazardous areas. This seems difficult to believe, but is a known fact. Hence even if the material is by itself not explosive, such as wood or sugar, the moment that it becomes dust (sawdust or sugar dust, it becomes hazardous). See the picture below from the infamous Imperial Sugar dust explosion. Large parts of the factory were destroyed because of a sugar dust explosion.
How to prevent such accidents from happening? The only way is to become knowledgeable about hazardous areas and their classification and ways to improve the existing classification by certain techniques that make the area safer. How do you do it without spending a boatload of cash on expensive books, poring through fat standards that are written in a not so easy manner, or spending hours surfing the internet for scraps of information or hanging around in Linked In groups asking peers about this (who themselves may not have knowledge about this niche subject)?

This ASRock micro-ATX LGA1156 motherboard is one of the cheapest we've seen, and it has some odd but novel features: a Good Night LED? With a loaded BIOS loaded and some interesting overclocking results, we show you what the H55M Pro can do.
The latest LGA1156 Evo motherboard from Asus features sharp styling and Intel's newest chipset, the H57. The board also adds in USB 3.0 and SATA 6Gbps - but its high price means it struggles against cheaper P55 boards.
This is the Gigabyte GA-H55M-UD2H, a media-orientated version of of the GA-P55M-UD2 which is one of the best budget Lynnfield overclockers on the market. We find out if the addition of Core i3 on-board graphics support effects the awesomeness of the board.
We tested Intel's latest Clarkdale CPU and found some interesting results about its memory performance. Does Core i3 and Core i5 have a problem? Have we really moved on from Core 2's front side bus model? We look at the tweaks and tradeoffs the design makes.
We test Intel's latest GMA HD graphics in its Clarkdale Core i5-661 CPU to see how it stacks up against AMDs 785G and Nvidia's 9300 IGPs when it comes to gaming and HD video. Long derided as terrible, GMA HD might be about to prove Intel's graphics detractors wrong.
Intel's latest 32nm processors, codenamed Clarkdale, are the first to integrate a GPU. We take the new budget-sensitive Core i3-530 and Core i5-661 for a spin to see how they compare to previous CPUs - will a Core 2 Quad Q6600 still cut it, and has AMD got anything to fight back with? Read on to find out...
Someone accidentally put some details of the imminent Core i3 processors live - read on to see what they might be like!
Gigabyte squeezes in the goods into this micro-ATX P55 motherboard. It's not all that cheap but it still squeezes in CrossFire and SLI support, as well as plenty of features. We check if it trade blows with the big boys to decide whether it's worth pairing with the popular Core i5-750.

Well done for getting out of bed and going for that run - it's a great feeling when you've done it, but doing it takes some effort :) #pocoloReplyDeleteReplies
Oh it certainly does Stephanie! It did take a lot of willpower to get my legs to move. Thanks. xxDelete
Well done so far! Try not to get hung up on stepping on the scales. Try to limit it to once a week. Total body weight can fluctuate sooooo much throughout the day. :) xReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks Michelle. I weigh myself first thing every morning - not because I'm obsessed with stepping onto those scales but because I've found it to be the most useful way of tracking my weight. I try not to get too down about the fluctuations (periods, alcohol the night before). This way I get to see what certain foods do to my weight. I'm suggesting it's for everyone but it works for me. :)Delete
Well done! I really need to do more and the fact that a few of the blogging posts I've read today are talking about exercise tells me that the universe is trying to tell me something!ReplyDeleteReplies
Thanks! Hehe, I think it must be the time of year, everyone is trying to get ready for their holidays or the summer. If you're not ready to do it then there's no point starting. You have to be ready. And start small too, even taking short walks can help when you're just starting out. :) Thanks for stopping by and commenting. xxDelete
Hi Morgan, love the positive attitude and the fact that you haven't let last weeks slump affect this week. I love a morning run too and agree totally that it sets you up for the day (and revs up the metabolism for the day, much better than an evening run).ReplyDelete
Keep up the positive attitude and you'll be reaching your goal weight before you know it!
Ah thanks so much Debbie. I think you're right, a positive attitude is most of the fight, as long as you can hold on to that anything is possible!Delete

For the past three Septembers we've attended Northview Christian Life's Hillfest. We always have a great time–they do such a good job with it. Last year we were able to hang out on the church's property and watch several hot air balloons lift off. We'd planned to do the same this year. (NVCL's property is the highest point in the county, making it a popular launch site. Around 6 o'clock we headed over to the grassy field where they had a balloon laid out on the ground. That's when we noticed the line of people. They were doing tethered rides! Initially the wind was too strong but it died down fairly quickly. After over 2 hours of waiting, the kids and I were able to go up for a very short, tethered ride. We had a great time and made some new friends in the line to boot. Check my Flickr for more Hillfest fun.

Support Vector Machines are learning machines that can perform binary classification (pattern recognition) and real valued function approximation (regression estimation) tasks. Support Vector Machines non-linearly map their n-dimensional input space into a high dimensional feature space. In this high dimesional feature space a linear classifier is constructed. For further information see our publications list.
If you are interested in developing commercial applications based on the Support Vector Machine, Transduction and related techniques, please contact the Director of the Computer Learning Research Centre, Professor A. Gammerman (email@example.com).

When I was in high school, it was deemed tacky to wear your prom hairstyle after the event. Even if prom fell on a Thursday, the unwritten rule was to take down your updo and wash your hair by homeroom that Friday morning.
My mom wasn't with it, though — she didn't spend all that money on a side bun and swoop for nothing! — and made me keep my style in for at least another week, much to my dissatisfaction. However, if I were able to rock an updo from Olivia Wilde's collection of styles, I would not complain. Have you seen her on the carpet before? Girl can werk a bun and ponytail.

Natasha McShane who was the victim a baseball attack last month in Bucktown, Chicago has been moved from Northwestern Memorial Hospital to the Rehabilitation Institute of Chicago.
Bernadette McShane, Natasha's grandmother, said that though her condition is improving she still cannot walk, talk or even recognize her parents.
A statement issued by the hospital on May 7 said "She is awake, but still only demonstrating limited brain activity. Although her movements are 'uncontrolled' at the moment, the family is hopeful for additional encouraging signs."
On April 23, McShane, from County Armagh, and her friend Stacy Jurich were attacked and had their purses stolen. McShane was hit around the back and head twice or three times.
Until May 7 she remained in an induced coma, suffering from swelling to the brain.
Her friend, Stacy Jurich, who was also attacked but managed to raise the alarm on the night, has been released from hospital and is also going through rehabilitation.
Heriberto Viramontes (30) and Marcy Cruz (25) have both been charged with the attacks and they will appear in court next Monday.
Fundraising for McShane and Jurich is continuing. Next Sunday nearly a dozen bars in Bucktown and Wicker Park are planning a pub crawl.
Last weekend students at University College Dublin held a barbeque in honor of McShane and the Irish American Heritage Center in Chicago is currently holding meetings to come up with a strategy for fundraising.
A benefit for McShane is being held on June 4 at the Local 399 operating engineers' event hall, 2260 S. Grove St, Chicago. Visit helpnatasha.net for more information.

Creating your concepts, choosing your colour schemes, thinking about your furnishings —managing all these factors, and many others, when designing your home can be thirsty work. That's why it's important to take some time to sit back and enjoy some liquid refreshment every now again.
Whether it's a set of cups for enjoying espressos in a bright, fresh kitchen, or a few mugs for drinking hot soup on a cold winter's day, or a full set of products for an end-to-end drinking experience, our range is designed for every occasion, whatever the weather.
Teabags may be the convenient choice for many of us these days, but that just makes a teapot seem all the more striking when placed in your home. Not only do they look stylish and original, our teapots are made using high quality materials such as stoneware, and are designed to last — as well as look great.
If coffee is your drink of choice, consider a set of ultra-modern espresso cups and saucers. Small but perfectly formed, they come in a variety of colours and styles. The designer patterns offer many contrasts, which means they're equally ideal for placing on a shelf in a well-lit contemporary kitchen or when they're brought out as in the living room as part of a post-dinner treat.
We can't offer a definitive answer to the eternal question of whether to put milk in before or after pouring the tea or coffee, but we can offer a funky selection of milk jugs for consideration. With many kitchen furnishings, it's the small things that make a big impression, such as offering these designer products, made with elegant ceramic, to your guests.
And for the wintry times when you prefer to stay inside and keep warm, let one of our fashionable mugs, perfect for hot drinks and soups, keep you company.
