One of the first scientists to investigate the process of tumor invasion and metastasis at the molecular level, Liotta has invented technologies in the fields of diagnostics, immunoassays, microdissection, and proteomics that have been used to make broad discoveries in genomics, functional genetics, and tissue proteomics. Prior to joining George Mason University, he served as chief of the Laboratory of Pathology at the National Cancer Institute Center for Cancer Research and as deputy director for Intramural Research at the National Institutes of Health. Liotta earned a medical degree and a doctoral degree in biomedical engineering from Case Western Reserve University. His research contributions have generated 90 issued patents and more than 600 articles in peer-reviewed publications. Included among Liotta's numerous awards for cancer research are three Public Health Service Commissioned Corps medals, the Arthur S. Fleming Award, the Warner Lambert/Parke Davis Award, the Rhoads Memorial Award, the Milken Family Foundation Award for Basic Research, the Lila Gruber Cancer Research Award, the U.S. Surgeon General's Medallion, and the Maud L. Menten Lecture Award. In addition, he is the recipient of the National Institutes of Health Award of Merit, the Cotlove Research Award, the Ballantyne Distinguished Lectureship Research Award, and the Philip Levine Award for Outstanding Research.
Liotta and Center for Applied Proteomics and Molecular Medicine Co-director Emanuel F. Petricoin III, who are internationally recognized for their pioneering research in proteomics and molecular medicine, co-founded the George Mason University Center for Applied Proteomics and Molecular Medicine in 2005. They currently are exploring their recent discovery of an archive of protein fragments in the blood that are biomarker candidates for breast, ovarian, and lung cancers. Their immediate goals are to validate these potential biomarkers in clinical trials to determine their feasibility in the diagnosis of cancer prior to metastasis, and to analyze molecular pathways in diseased tissue to determine individualized and targeted treatments for patients. The team also is investigating the development and use of nanotechnology to synergize with proteomic tools for new types of biosensors, nanoparticles for biomarker discovery, and nanoelectronics. Liotta and Petricoin have more than 20 patents pending in the areas of cancer theranostics, biomarkers, and related technologies.

The company is also offering training and educational modules for patients - as well as physicians, caregivers and researchers - to enhance the understanding of patient-focused medical cannabis programs within existing and developing U.S. markets.
OWC also plans on a collaboration with patient groups as "Americans for Safe Access", in building and educating patients to become quality reviewers of the dispensary work and mentor other patients on how to better use medical cannabis (CTP Cannabis for Therapeutic Purposes). It is a 24/7 service and support (by phone) for the first week of use In order to help the patients counter various common side effects and thus help adherence to treatment.
"By building an infrastructure for safe care and management in using medical cannabis, we can serve as a valued partner in the process of helping medical cannabis businesses to train and educate patients, and their families, about cannabis products, treatment for medical conditions and dispensary services," added Dr. Baruch, who served as Head of the Israeli Ministry of Health's Medical Cannabis Program for 10 years.
In addition to regulatory expertise, One World Cannabis has practical research knowledge in the field of medical cannabis treatment to carry out scientific investigations into the medical effects and benefits of cannabis and the development of new products based on the results of scientific studies.
"We want to become an international hub for medical cannabis information and research, while also serving as a regulation service consultancy for advancing legislation to allow further use of medical cannabis," added Ziv Turner, CEO of One World Cannabis Ltd.
While continuing with scientific investigations into the medical effects and benefits of cannabis and the development of new programs, One World Cannabis recently released preliminary results from the first of several contracts to conduct joint preclinical and clinical research projects on the effect of several combinations of cannabinoil (CBD), tetrahydrocannabinol (THC), and research in treatment for multiple myeloma, a highly treatment-resistant form of bone marrow cancer.
Future studies for other medical conditions are currently underway.

Am I the only one that has a problem with this commercial?
WHO wears a pink dress with rust orange pumps? GAG!!
3 years ago
Ok Meghan, your post cracks me up! I would have watched that ad and just thought that it was annoying, which it is. But I think that it is so funny that you picked out what she is wearing! What a good eye you have! I love it!
I'm more amused by the girl's non-sensical writhing. I was more like, "WHO picks a lanky, bony woman with no rhythm for a commercial that mostly features dancing?!"
we can hope the pink 'dress' is a slip :)
LOL you crack me up !

Dust Filter Replacement
Hello All,
I posted this on an old thread but wanted to repost it here for more visability.
Here's the deal:
Last Saturday I parked my car and shut it off before the wiper finished its downward return stroke, causing it to stop in the middle section of the drivers side of the windshield. I didn't think much about it then and left it. Well, we had a small snow and ice storm come through on Sunday and it froze the wiper in that position. My wife went out on Tuesday (didn't drive it on Monday) and started the car to warm it up. I come out 10 min. later and smell the distinct odor of burning electronics. I start hunting around and discover that the wiper motor is attempting to return the wiper to the idle position but can't thanks to the snow. I quickly cleared the windshield and the wiper was freed. Long story short (I know...too late) the wiper is still working but the smell of the burnt motor is still coming out, especially when the Heater is running. I looked around and there appears to be a filter of some kind that is visible from the engine compartment located just under the wiper. If that is the A/C dust filter, I'm wondering if the smell of the burning motor is trapped in it and it's being distributed throughout the cabin when the A/C/Heater is running. If so, I need to change it.
So, how hard is it to replace the filter and how much is the filter?
Also, if you think I'm barking up the wrong tree here on what's causing the smell...I'm all ears...er, eyes.

Romeo and Juliet Media Assignment
Extracts from this document...
Romeo and Juliet Media Assignment This essay describes how the modern day film media of 'Romeo and Juliet is made meaningful, relate to a modern audience and exciting and fresh through different aspects of how the film was designed. I am describing from the scene after the prologue introduction until the end of that first scene. Intertexuality (cross referencing to other films) is used in 'Romeo and Juliet' firstly when the Capulets and Montegues have their first show down, the music and the style of the fight is in a classical spaghetti western style. The director does this for two reasons, one that it gives atmosphere to the conflict and second it will appeal to a more modern audience and they can refer to the westerns. There are three types of genre in the opening scene; these are an action thriller type scene, western references and a small comic scene. The introduction to 'Romeo and Juliet' starts off with some conflict between the Montegues and the Capulets, which ends in a gun brawl. ...read more.
This all adds up to give a very evil and negative connotation of the two Capulets. I personally stereotype the Capulets as gangsters that have a sense of style, they cause anarchy but for a reason, whereas the Montegues are just out to look good but are really quite harmless. Also the news report during the film is set in a modern day American flash news report, this is there to do any narrating during the film and is also a great way to modernise the film. Like in all films camera shots play quite a large part in how any film is viewed. The variety of camera shots is very vast. You can get close ups to show facial expressions, for example there is a close up on Abra when we tries to startle the Montegues, he snarls at them, the close up shows a mettle gum plate, and then he says 'BOO!' and then he breaks up laughing When Ben Volio and Tybalt have an argument with each other there is a scene where it switches from a close up on Tybalt to a close up on Ben Volio, and keeps alternating ...read more.
Whereas the Capulets are wearing dark blue or black suits and drive in a dark blue car with dark tinted out windows. The different colour connotations clear differences between the families. The colour is also used to brighten the film up so that it is not seen as an old fashioned Shakespearian play. Denotation and Connotation are my last points to describe how the films media approach affects the viewing of the film. On of the shots in the opening scene is a picture of a giant Capulet building on the left of the shot, an equally giant Montegue building represent the high and mighty power of each family, but it shows that neither family has the upper hand of power because the buildings are of equal size. And the church represents that they are both of the same religion of Christianity but may also be separated by it and they don't follow the religion as true Christians, this is ironic because that separates them and yet they disobey their teachings to fight. The director uses two skyscrapers to modernize the image of the film once again. The connotation of this is that the two families have extreme power and the religion in between them separates them. ...read more.

The following pics were sent to me today, does anyone recognize the action make, model etc?
The following pics were sent to me today, does anyone recognize the action make, model etc?
Definitely a Mauser of some sort. It looks like a sporterized military Mauser given the "thumb cut" on the left side of the receiver and what looks like a rewelded bolt handle.
Without more detailed photos of receiver and markings without the scope mount and the bolt and shroud it's difficult to tell.
Now what ?
Looks like a CZ Bruno, vz24 or possibly a German K98. It doesn't appear to be one of the short actioned mausers like the Yugo 48's or the Mexican mausers.
It appears to be a good strong old 98. The rewelded bolt looks to be well done. The bolt shroud is of the aftermarket variety. The safety looks like that of a Timney or Bold trigger. The side safety also means that it locks only the trigger mechanizm and not the bolt. Not a bad thing in my mind but is to some.
Kimber(of Montana) used to take the vz24 actions and do them up pretty much like the one in your pictures and then sell the barreled actions for around $500. The only difference is they retained the long creepy military trigger and the safety which was on the shroud and locked the bolt from going forward.
Looks like a good hunk of iron to me!
Thanks guys,
I knew it was a mauser and I liked the shroud upgrade as I owned one of those kimbers for a short while but I am not as familiar with all the different mauser models as many of you are, I am looking at it as a project rifle for my 16 year old son and I to work on. Although many of the upgrades to the action have already been done that I would have made it will still give us a chance to take it apart, clean it up and make it look good and hopefully make it into a sub-moa shooter if it is not already there.
I have even told him that it was going to take a financial comittment from him as well as I want him to know "ownership" in his custom rifle.
BTW- It is a 280 rem, he loves mine and wants the same. Great for me as I have cases of ammo for it already.
It is definately a Mauser M98, by design but it does have some look of the VZ24's, which of course is a 98. Something about the rounded side rail just forward of the thumb cut. And it is of course of military heritage. A shot of the bottom metal would help but may have been changed also. I will guess it has the 'C' broached diaphram, third lug, and 'K' flange on it originally. That shroud has the gas flange but all aftermarket shrouds do and the trigger/safety is of the box type as has been pointed out.
Is the magazine release recessed to require the point of an FMJ round to open? The early FN Commercial floor plates had a raised release button for the trap door plate and some folks used that as a quick up grade. I still prefer that trap door with the raised release button and have a recent custom with that plate. They were standard on the 1950's vintage FN's and that era usually had the "C" broached receiver as well.
It looks like a strong action for a home project, should be fun.
Is there nothing so sacred on this earth that you aren't willing to kill or die for?
thats and aftermarket trigger guard and floorplate assy. Think Uncle Mikes made/makes them. LWT metal, not steel.

How much total space do you have on your tablet? What's taking up so much space that you have over 100 MB left? (Taking into consideration most tablets come with 16 GB.) If it's media like movies, try deleting a movie or two. (A typical movie alone can eat up 1 GB of space easily.)
2. Re: Insufficient space?Lon3Wo1f Nov 15, 2011 10:58 PM (in response to Warunicorn)
The key words in your reply are "most tablets" The point is that the app description clearly states 38.04MB, I have at minimum three times that space yet I'm getting this error message. I know you're trying to help but it isn't a space issue so I'm trying to see what else it could be.

I'm not sure if you are familiar with the adb tool. - http://developer.android.com/guide/developing/tools/adb.html
But you could try this out too while having the device connected to your PC/Mac:
Unless you are too familiar with the Terminal or Command prompt on Mac resp. Win the easiest way is to go to the folder and from there do a :
'adb shell pm setInstallLocation 1'
in the terminal/prompt
It will tell your device to install to the drive and not to the external SD card.
If you then want to change it back you can either do
'adb shell pm setInstallLocation 0' (automatic setting)
'adb shell pm setInstallLocation 2' (external SD)

Thanks for the suggestion about changing install location but it seems that isn't the issue as I tried both 1 and 2 with no success. It's still something I can keep in mind for the future though. With regard to the problem I'm going to leave it open for now as I'm trying to contact Adobe directly to see if they have an alternative solution besides refunding me. Thanks to all who've tried to help so far though!
Quick edit to note that I fall below the "minimum required" resolution which I did not know about. I could've sworn it said minimum recommended when I read it elsewhere or I wouldn't have wasted my money. With that said I will be getting a new tablet soon enough but I wouldn't buy an app I can't use for a few months if I'd known.

Bruce Wayne
PSA: Bruce Wayne's average Batmobile costs $214,700
Where does he get those wonderful toys? We're speaking, in case you didn't catch the movie quote, of Batman. Specifically, his most famous car, otherwise known as the Batmobile. There have been well over a hundred Batmobiles since the first, a 1936 Cord, was used in 1941.

Be the King of Comic-Con: Batman replica motorcycle leathers (Batpod not included)
The San Diego Comic-Con kicks off later this week, and as is the case each year, there'll be no shortage of giddy, costumed fanboys and girls roaming the halls. There's no denying that some of the getups people wear to the con are pretty spot-on, but fans of Batman might be interested in this one, which looks to be dead accurate, as well as being somewhat functional.
The bull and the bat: Lambo LP640 in next Batman flick?
Lamborghini has been on something of a roll lately. It had a record year last year with 2,087 units sold. It introduced special editions of the Murcielago and Gallardo, as well as upgraded the "regular" Murci to LP640 status. A roadster version of the LP640 was a no-brainer and showed up soon after. They also let slip that a super lightweight version of the bread-and-butter Gallardo would be debuting in Geneva. So there are lots of reasons to smile if you're with Lamborghini or an enthusiast who

I'm so behind on your art! I've just looked through your latest work and I feel like I could look at it all day.XD
I really like this picture. The faces just draw me in, they look so real! You know, it reminds me of a faery book I saw, I think you totally should put your goblins into one, if you haven't done that already. This is a fav for sure.

I really like how organic this feels. You might walk right past them in the forest and never even know. So, how can we say they don't exist? Maybe they are just hiding very well.

Apple Madness
Shaking the rust off of my brushes here in Parrsboro. The weather for the drive up was stellar. The skies were blue with big puffy clouds and the light driving into town at about 8:30 PM Monday evening was spectacular. It was the summer solstice but It stays light longer up here anyway because of the latitude.
Today I broke out the gear and was going to paint a sweet bouquet of wildflowers in a jelly jar....but quickly came to my senses and settled on these apples, which were difficult enough!! You can't stay away from painting very long before you lose your mojo ;)

See what homes are for sale now in Berkeley
See what homes are for sale now in Oakland
After the 1907 earthquake, Rockridge was one of the first neighborhoods settled in Oakland, with its proximity to San Francisco being one of the drawing cards...just as it is today. It was just a couple of years after the earthquake that this charming Victorian was built at 5261 Miles Avenue.
It has all the details of the period: box ceiling, built ins, wainscoting and large moldings plus a basement. It has all the accoutrements people were used to in the city. Additionally, it has 2 bedrooms, 1 1/2 baths, an updated kitchen that opens to a family room and a wonderful deck and backyard. Today, it's even closer to the city: just three blocks to BART and all the restaurants and stores of Rockridge and Temescal.
For a closer look, check out www.5261miles.com.
Give us a call at 510-847-2409 for more information on this or on great neighborhoods to buy a home in the East Bay.

OH the love/hate relationship I now have with Gotye's "Somebody That I Used To Know".

Dating aquarius woman yahoo, the aquarius woman: love, sex, friendship, style
Always reaching for the sky, electric blue seems the natural color for this woman. I believe most Virgos are clean freaks, but I live with one brother-in-law who sounds like yours. I need meaning, accountability, and presence.
On one hand they are warm, kind, and outgoing, the sort to make friends easily and willingly. Ask him out right if he like you ALOT and wants to have a girl friend boyfriend relationship. I always figured it was because I was 6 years older than him that I was the boss; big mistake. This woman will stay loyal to a particular brand, restaurant, mom-and-pop shop, team, musician, and so forth, through thick and thin, unless of course they truly prove themselves unworthy.
Am I not risking not to talk to me ever again if I am so persistent and pushing? I became attracted to it because of my lack of dating aquarius woman yahoo in men. Whether the retiring or the outgoing Aquarian, both types appreciate opportunities to be alone. Thanks-shit———I read all this anti aquarian virgo stuff and say——shit i fit the stereiotype too stubborntoo rational to believe it ————-but we all grasp for any straws when looking for love, and finding a way for compatability -in sex. Scorpio are far too possessive and broody, that dating a guy who is 10 years younger go with aquarius again.
Překladový slovník - více výsledků
Ultimately, I believe in progression and I agree with previous statements about growth as people within a relationship. Our biggest problem is that we are both really stubborn at times. This guy inspires me to be more realistic yet optimistic, organized and affectionate…no major datings aquarius woman yahoo so far.
The way you keep an Aquarius woman is how you got her in the first place.
aquarius woman with virgo man?
Her ideal match has a lot of brains and understands her diversity. Harm to minors, violence or threats, harassment or privacy invasion, impersonation or misrepresentation, fraud or phishing, show more. This coupling-up may feel almost superhuman where they'll feel like they can conquer the world, which may not leave much time or interest in the bedroom.
You may have a problem on your hands that you might want to start thinking about how you can get rid of….
Anything that supports a community will have her blessing. Quick word of advise.
Mercury enters Sagittarius
The truth is I loved her in every way, and wanted more I feel than she was able or willing to give. But again, the present day woman may not actually identify in toto with the traits defined by the Zodiac astrology of yore. It has to do with their loyalty, their attachment to the past, and their memories, so even though they have the courage to look ahead, usually with optimism, and see the best things in store, they still like to know where they have come from and who they are. I just need to get some advice on ho wto deal with this behaviour.
Trending Now
Once a Virgo male gets and idea in his head, thats it. The Aquarian I had the long term live together relationship was the love of my life. And the job situation…was the job really annoying to you OR did he make it annoying to you by complaining? Most Aquarians appreciate beauty and balance, possessing an excellent sense of aesthetics. How do I tame an Aquarian male? Check his body language and what kind of words he uses. Me, myself, and my crazy life. Capricorn men and money just go ,together.

Yesterday afternoon it was a very lovely day. And since I get out of school early on Wednesday's Stephanie and I went to the beach. I was dressed in red and black like a lady bug and she was dressed in yellow and black like a bumblebee. It was cute. Until I cut my pinky toe and it wouldn't stop bleeding. Not so cute.
I love Stephanie

|Pilgrim sculpture
|A coffee stop
|Courtyard at "Laura's" albergue
We´ve had a taste of being the minority who only speak Englsish. It´s good for us, I think, to experience the alienation that many people feel when they can´t communicate in their native language. A couple nights ago at dinner at the albergue there was a French speaking table, another for the Germans, one for the Italians and one for the Spaniards. Then there were just Jed and I at another table until we were joined by a Brit and an Israeli. They turned out to be great company. The Israeli, David, was able to tell us a lot about the struggles in the middle East. Then, last night we learned about growing up in east Berlin from our friends Marco and Bernd, whom we´ve hooked up with in nearly every destination town for at least a week. It´s weird to think that if the Berlin wall hadn´t come down they wouldn´t have been allowed to travel here.
The towns and the landscape have been a bit boring the last couple days. This region doesn´t have stone for building, so the buildings are the old (and generally delapidated) adobe, or newer brick. The "Peregrino Menu" is also getting tiresome. It´s reasonably priced (about $13 each including wine) but the choices rarely vary -only the quality of the preparation. Even with good preparation, it´s generally bland and tasteless. Tonight we´ll try to find some tapas, as we´re in a somewhat larger town, and that might just be possible. Tomorrow we´ll be in Leon, and we´ll celebrate with a hotel room and a non-pilgrim meal.
The feet are getting much better, thank you very much. Mine have been good for several days and Jed says today was a turning point for him. We´re optimistic that the worst problems from now on will be the standard weary feet that are eager to slip into a comfy pair of Crocs at the end of a long day.
Yesterday was our halfway point for the Camino. We are now on the ¨downhill¨side, with less than 240 miles to go. This afternoon we met a young woman from Toronto who has been walking from France and will log over 1000 miles by the time she reaches Santiago. Hard for me to fathom why anybody would do that, especially since the less traveled parts offer much less by way of lodging and compànionship.
Tonight´s accommodations turned out to be much better than expected. We´re in a large albergue, but the hostelier, Laura, blessed us with a private room! It´s really just 2 single beds in a hallway, but it´s pure luxury not to be in a dorm with bunk beds. Ther are lots of new faces here, but many we recognize as well. Every evening is a kind of reunion with people we´ve met along the way. They say the Camino gets under your skin, and this is one of the reasons why, I think.
Well, Jed´s up from his nap and now he´s hungry. Walk, sleep, eat, sleep, walk, eat, sleep.......

Producer Vashu Bhagnani, Sanjay Gadhvi, Jackky Bhagnani, Nidhi Subbaiah and Sajid-Wajid interacted with media and shared their experiences while working on the film.
Jackky who looked super cool with in his 6 packs said loosing that much weight was not an easy job for him. Non-stop workouts, full check on diet and exercise, is what finally helped him get rid of all the flab. Talking about his upcoming film being directed by Sanjay Gadhvi that also stars Nidhi Subbaiah, he says that it has been a fantastic experience working on a romcom. "After 'Ajab Gazabb Love', I`m doing Rangrezz, so I am happy with the kind of films I am doing and I only hope to grow with each film," says Jackky.
The song 'Boom Boom', which is already topping the charts, was the center of all questions being asked to the entire team. The duo Sajid-Wajid shared their experience of working with Jackky and Vashu Bhagnani as a team.

Cheese Fridge
Someone entered my room on drugs, and they gave us an entire cheesecake. Not knowing what else to do, we placed it in our fridge. In retrospect, we should have thrown the mysterious, narcotic-enabled thing out; we had no intent to facilitate its hasty narf, nor did any of our guests, legion in number, take any particular interest in the frosted thing. As money-grubbing, hobo-like college students, however, it takes a healthy bit of tenacity to simply toss out any respectable amount of food, especially when it's given to you in such generous supply to begin with. This mindset is more or less explained in this recent WSN article about a dumbass that almost killed himself eating an abandoned muffin.
Anyway, the point is, some fool bastard unplugged our fridge days ago and now the damn thing smells like a shit quesadilla filled with vomit and goat anus. During operation "Throw the demon cake the fuck out," it struck back against its human masters and excreted some vile cheese juice all over the unit and now there is just this musk of smegma-queef being pumped into my dorm room 24/7 and there is a giant moth flying all over the God damn place and fuck what is that growing under my bed
6 more days. I'll miss it.

I'm posting this for my girlfriend Kim who was carrying her Colt Defender at the open carry dinner with us in Richmond last night. She went to the new walmart on parham to return some stuff after we ate. She reports some looks but no comments. She even went to the customer service desk to make her returns and no one said anythig. She even wandered around the store for a while and no one said a word.
So all in all she reports a good outing in wal mart.

Had a chance to watch them for a while before heading in for our stop in Friday Harbor, pausing a bit to take a look at some Steller Sea Lions. Overall a great day for sun and wildlife.

Hello friends and Family,
What a crazy week! So for those of you who don't follow my photo sharing, I was
emergency transferred out of the Tongan Stake because of an Elder who wasn't able to
come to our mission because he wasn't able to get his visa in time. So I took his place
in the Bennion West Stake. I was pretty bummed to be leaving the Tongan Stake but
I still love Taylorsville so it's all good!
If you lost count, I am now on my 9th companion and 5th area in 10 months! Haha
It's really crazy how everything has happened. My guess is that I will be staying
here in the Bennion West Stake for a good little while...At least I hope. I've been
here for about 5 days now and I am loving it so far. My companion is Elder Jones
from Alabama. He has been out about 16 months. He is a great missionary and we knew
each other from my old mission. We were actually supposed to be companions in Midvale
until my transfer got switched back in May. So a few things happened and we eventually
got to be companions.
This week I had the opportunity to go back to Grantsville with Elder Brumbaugh
for a baptism we had out there when we were companions. It was great to spend some
time with him and go back out to Granstville to see old friends. I miss it so much.
I hope and pray I get to serve there again before the end of my mission! Life is
real good here but the work is kind of slow at the moment. We're doing our best
to pick it up and I'll let you guys know how it goes! Oh and my birthday is coming
up so I'll be in Taylorsville for that which I'm super pumped for.
My new address is 5565 South 3580 West Taylorsville, Utah 84123 so feel free to send some letters and packages :)
Love you Guys!
Elder Bowler

How Manufacturers Can Secure the IoT
Many devices aren't as secure as you think they are. So what can manufacturers do to secure the IoT and make their products safer for consumers?
As consumers, we assume that all the products we buy have been secured by the manufacturer, making them safe for us to use as soon as they are purchased. However, we often find that the security of our devices isn't up to par especially in an IoT world. So what can manufacturers do to secure the IoT and make their products safer for consumers? Venkat Rajaji discusses this further in his blog post originally posted on IS Buzz.

I made this for an inspiration challenge at My Scrapbook Table Sarah is having a blog candy giveaway and one of the things you need to do is make a card using her inspiration piece. I really struggled with this for some reason and I didn't like it most of the way through in the end I am happy. I used the three flowers with the off set centers as the piece that I choose. There is very little stamping on this card, but a whole lot of sponging. It is a bit hard to tell by my photo, but I used close to cocoa, so saffron, really rust, more mustard, chocolate chip and old olive. Oh my, I just realized I used six colors on one card I think that is the most I have ever used on one before. If you would like to enter for Sarah's blog candy hurry over here. Thanks for looking.

Sym-Bionic Titan (2010-2011)
As a result of not being categorized as "children's television", many anime contain ample violence and bloodshed—to the point where certain titles hold a "mature" rating (Chambers, 2012; McKevitt, 2010). Because these features were unconventional in traditional cartoons during the American "anime boom" in the late 90s, violent scenes of imported content were edited out in order to deem them more child-friendly (Daliot-Bul, 2014, p. 76). However, as the integration of anime onto American television increased, open-mindedness over animation's capability to capture older audiences followed. As a result, adult-oriented animation such as Family Guy and Futurama materialized and have experienced excellent viewership ratings to justify the production of multiple seasons (Chambers, 2012).
Sym-Bionic Titan, similar to Avatar: The Last Airbender, takes plenty of inspiration from Japanese anime; however it presents more of a fusion between American and Japanese elements (Thill, 2010). The series centers Princess Ilana and her two guardians, Lance and Octus, who collectively witness the hostile takeover of their home planet, Galaluna. In order to keep Ilana safe, the three protagonists decide to flee to Earth and pose as students at a local secondary school. What drives the series is that these characters have the ability to summon high-tech and self-aware battle suits to defend themselves against various interplanetary species—and after fighting as individual units, they quickly realize that these suits can combine to form one large self-aware robot known as "Sym-Bionic Titan" (Tartakovsky, 2010). Throughout the 1970s Japanese science-fiction anime adopted the space-based concept of "giant-piloted robots" (Daliot-Bul, 2014, p. 81). As a storytelling element that launched a trend in Japanese animation, it formed a genre known as "mecha" (81). Science-fiction and fantasy drove anime's success in the US during the 1980s, which introduced the mecha titles of Gundam Seed, Voltron, and Mighty Orbots (Daliot-Bul, 2014). The series Sym-Bionic Titan takes heavy inspiration from the mecha genre, as a giant robot composed of alien technology is the premise of the entire series (Thill, 2010).
A notable feature of the series is that it aired on Toonami before it was pulled from American broadcast schedules. Toonami was a television segment part of Cartoon Network and was responsible for introducing many Americans to widely-popular anime such as Pokemon, Sailor Moon, Cowboy Bebop, and Death Note (Daliot-Bul, 2014; De Jesus, 2014). The segment was a contributing factor to the late 90's anime boom, as it launched in 1997—known by Daliot-Bul (2014) as a "tipping point in the history of anime on US television" (p. 83). As the cultural conception of animation altered in its "for kids" mentality, Cartoon Network launched its Adult Swim block, broadcasting series targeted at older audiences (Chambers, 2012). Sym-Bionic Titan fell into the spectrum of series that aired on the segment—those that target teenager and adult viewers (Daliot-Bul, 2014). Many of these series are known to contain crude humour and/or fall under the spectrum of dark, violent, and complex (Otmazgin, 2013).
Throughout its first and only season, Sym-Bionic Titan has replicated an anime-inspired format in its character-driven plots (De Jesus, 2014). It closely follows the dynamic of three very different personalities, as they begin to get to know each other. Pivotal components are gradually revealed of their past that have shaped who they are as individuals (Tartakovsky, 2010). Lance, for example, is presented as cold and heartless at first, but throughout the series his backstory is revealed to vindicate his personality: his father disappeared when he was a child, resulting in his forced enrollment into a strict training ground for future military personnel, by order of the King. Within this institution, Lance was harshly bullied, treated as an inferior by the institution's figureheads, and was eventually wrongly expelled for defending himself against a destructive classmate. Lance discovered plans of the Galaluna invasion before it had occurred, but after attempting to warn the royal family he was turned away due to his damaged reputation by no fault of his own (Tartakovsky, 2010). By adding depth to the protagonists of the series, Sym-Bionic Titan contains intellectual complexity in its characterization inherent in many anime titles (Otmazgin, 2013, p. 70).
Contrast to Avatar: The Last Airbender, aside from containing anime-related components Sym-Bionic Titan also incorporates traditional American stories and tropes. Primarily, the three protagonists of the series attend an American high school, with American-based grading systems, marking schematics, and class projects. Stereotyped American-school politics are mirrored in the series as well, materializing through heavily segregated character traits—most notably the senseless jocks, malicious cheerleaders, and socially-awkward nerds (Tartakovsky, 2010). These character tropes are portrayed relentlessly throughout American entertainment. Additionally, culturally-Western events such, as football games and school dances, are also used as vehicles to drive various secondary plots. The character and background designs are also traditionally American, specifically in their use of thick lines and stiffly-animated movements (Daliot-Bul, 2014).
By assessing the series' elements, Sym-Bionic Titan represents a fusion of cultural content: it contains American-based characters, settings, and art styles, but Japan-based characterization, storytelling, and premise. Overall, the series validates the idea that "the diffusion of American culture, especially at the popular level, has not generated cultural homogenization, but rather the revitalization and generation of new cultural forms in different localities" (Daliot-Bul, 2014, p. 80).

The truth is, I get very annoyed when it seems as though the "bad guy" gets all the breaks. I can hear the phrase "nice guys finish last" echoing in my mind, especially when the "bad guy" does well at my expense. My annoyance quickly turns to anger. And man, do I fret! I want to fix things my way!
But the Lord tells me to rest in Him and to wait patiently for Him. And that gives me hope because I'm not just being patient for patience's sake, I'm going to wait for the Lord so that I can have Him and His way in my life. His way is just. His way is compassionate. His way is infinitely better than my way.
Brothers and sisters, let's take God's offer to heart. Resting in Him, waiting for Him, trusting in Him. Only in the Lord do we have the freedom and ability to cease from anger, to forsake wrath, and leave our demands for justice in the hands of the One who will make every wrong right.

She is napping now and I'm so tired but just don't want to go take a nap just yet. I'm thinking about how fat I'm feeling. Yes, yes I know I know I'm pregnant and that I'm not supposed to diet and its normal/natural to feel huge. Like I've said before its the cup size issue as well as the belly size issue that gets me. If I was any less cheap I'd plan on doing formula just so my boobs could go back down ASAP. But I'm cheap and would feel like I was just being selfish, so I won't. I'm considering some exercise options:
- Running--but would that flood me with all kinds of guilt about possibly causing some trouble for baby since I'm now about 23 weeks along? Are doctors just being overly cautious (which I usually find to be the case) when they say don't start any new exercise during pregnancy? I want to start the Couch-to-5k running program.. but maybe take it even slower than they are suggested because of my condition. However... running? how maybe bras would I have to wear to keep myself from all the bouncing? This issue paired with the whole stress fractures/tendinitis is what killed running for me in the past.
- Biking--I at least want Ry to get my bike down today so I can start taking morning rides around the block with Aayla in the trailer. I think she would enjoy getting out regularly and I would benefit from it. Biking never really seems to have any visible results though, so maybe I do it wrong.
- Prenatal Pilates--I am also thinking about leaving for my OB appointment early today to pick up a prenatal Pilates DVD from target. Maybe paired with the running I can get in shape (not trying to lose weight).
And this brings me back to the topic that I feel has been plaguing me for a while now: routine. It does not come naturally to me. I work so. darn. hard. to establish it and then maintain it. I feel like my life is screaming for it, so why is it so darn hard to just get into it? I can't tell if I'm fighting laziness or just my nature. I'm sure it just boils down to my motives for resisting. Scheduled people to me have always been boring. I've always looked at them and thought, man, relax and enjoy life, take it as it comes, be flexible. Now I'm looking at them thinking that their schedules actually provide freedom. Freedom to stop stressing about accomplishing it all... if its in your routine, it'll get done and you'll have time for play.
I'm going to keep track of Aayla's shenanigans this week and try to pin her down to her natural schedule. That will probably start with establishing a more consistent bedtime (none of this 6:15 crap... and a few less nights of 9:30pm sadly) for both her AND myself, and then establishing a consistent wake up time (boooo). Maybe the rest will fall into place. More great intentions.

Where I can, I am taking some liberties with the mock up for expedience, for example the finished chair will not have the screws used in the mock up. Also, the stringers under the seat will have arched bottoms, the seat itself will have rounded edges, and so forth.
I tried sculpting one sample leg. I'm undecided how much contouring I will finally do; I may just shape the backs of the legs and keep the surfaces facing outwards crisp.
I'd hoped to finish this this week, but it will go into the middle of the coming week. I still have time to select materials before I start the real piece. For the structure, I'd thought a light hard wood, like ash or hickory, and for the seat, back, and arms, a darker, precious species. On the other hand, after another fellow in the shop made something nice out of plywood, letting the edges show, I thought sculpted plywood legs would be amazing as the layers would show off the contouring. We'll see, there is still time.
I am having the most fun I've had in years, absolutely loving this. I wrote to an unemployed friend today, "I felt like I'd hit rock bottom, like I'd lost everything, and I had no desire to get back in the design business, to again beg people to 'pick me.' But now, I've embraced my situation and I'm going all in, betting on myself and only doing what I want. If someone likes it, fine, if not, they can find the door. We'll see if it works." Another friend said "So, you are a teenager." So be it, I'm alive! At the end of the day today I found myself looking at the chair and thinking, "I'm glad this exists, I'm glad I did this."
Something is coming...

Did you know that Saturday was World Card Making Day. In honor of that I spent the weekend making cards and entering challenges. One of the challenges was to make a card based on Canada's Maple leaf. As you can see, I did use a maple leaf. I was sure I had that leaf in a large stamp. Apparently not. :) I hope my Canadian friends can forgive me and know that I was thinking of them when I designed this card.
It does sport the Cherry Cobbler Red and Whisper White of the Canadian flag. I used the French Foliage stamp set for this card. Isn't it pretty, even if it isn't the "right" leaf for the Canadian flag?
Over the weekend I used my Heat Gun and Embossing powder more than I ever have. It seemed like almost every card could use a little embossing or quick drying. :) I'll be showing you more of the cards I made over the next couple of weeks.
In case you missed Saturday's post, you might want to CLICK HERE. I'm giving away some Blog Candy. What's blog candy? In this case it is a free stamp set (OR a set of cards made with that stamp set if you are outside of the US.) It's pretty easy to enter to win.

Happier at Home: Coping With Homesickness
Our Book of the Month for September is Gretchen Rubin's Happier at Home, a personal experiment in making home a happier place by doing things like cultivating shrines and practicing nonrandom acts of kindness in your neighborhood. Here's Ashley's experience "acting the way she wants to feel." —BBL Editor
The "February" chapter of Gretchen Rubin's Happier at Home is all about the body: How your body interacts with its surroundings, how your body reacts to the people and events around you, how your body takes in sensory details in your environment. Rubin is interested in making her body "happier," and she does this in several ways, from aromatherapy to creating special breakfasts for her family on minor holidays like Valentine's Day or St. Patrick's Day, and even by striving to jump—literally jump—a few times every day. She finds that by changing small ways she interacts with and experiences things around her, her body feels better, and she feels happier.
Though she covers quite a lot, the thing that struck me most about this chapter were two key phrases: Act the way you want to feel, and, The only person you can change is yourself. I tried to keep these mantras in mind after reading the chapter and apply them to my life as much as possible. And you know what? It actually helped!
After visiting home one weekend for my niece's birthday, I felt sad and heartsick about having to leave. In the city where I live now, I have no family at all, and I often feel homesick and lonely. When I felt those dark thoughts creeping in and tears start to well up, I reminded myself that I couldn't change anything about my current situation except the way that I chose to react to it. So I told myself, I live in one place, and my family lives somewhere else. And I just have to be OK with that. I adjusted my hunched-over posture and leaned back with my feet up. I made myself relax all the muscles that tense up when I'm about to cry. I took out a book that I was really enjoying, and I felt the warmth of contentment wash over me almost immediately as I started reading. I became absorbed in the story, and my eyes remained dry for the rest of the night despite my initial overwhelming desire to dissolve into tears.
As it turns out, something as simple as adjusting my posture and reading is a great way for me to find my center, act the way I want to feel, and control and change the way I engage with my environment.
This is just one example of how I used Gretchen's tips to navigate my body from a forlorn state to one of serenity. I've integrated a few of her other suggestions (preparing a special meal every once in a while can make you feel happier), but I think remembering the statements above is the simplest way to make your body physically and mentally happier at home.

If you have found this blog, saying Welcome does not really seem appropriate. I know you wish you weren't surfing the internet for diabetes. I felt the same.
A big part of me wishes I were not writing about diabetes, nor did I anticipate to become so opinionated or informed on the subject, but it happened. In 2010, my son was diagnosed with Type 1 Diabetes.
It wasn't really part of the plan… Correction - it was not part of the plan, but it happened. It is not always easy, but I think we are all doing okay, and I hope we continue to do so.
Why the Middle East? I happen to live in Dubai. I don't think that living in the Middle East makes mine or my son's diabetic experience any more unique or challenging than it does elsewhere in the developed world.
I hope you stick around, or read something you like. Feel free to comment and join the conversation, subscribe or follow this blog by liking the Facebook page Diapoint.
Please note: This blog does not give medical advice. I am opinionated, and I share my experiences, but the first rule of diabetes is to follow up with your doctor and/or nurse educator about your care, diagnosis or medication. If you do not have a medical practitioner that is helping you find your way through this crazy world, then do not give up until you find the right one.

Much to be Thankful For
Gratitude and appreciation are something I place high importance on. We are truly blessed and fortunate for many reasons, and what we have available here to us to help manage my son's Type 1 is definitely something to not take for granted.
As I dropped him at school today for a field trip, I found myself thankful for everything and everyone working toward making sure he can do this and other activities as a non-diabetic primary school child does.
I am so thankful for the help we have that can cover these activities if I cannot go, the nurses in his health office that are always on top of everything at school, his teacher that was ready to carry his entire box of class emergency snacks and supplies on the field trip (although not necessary, but her enthusiasm and pro-activeness says so much), and the cooperation of everyone to make all this happen easily.
This week I met several people who have dedicated their life to diabetes. Other diabetics, caretakers, advocates, physicians, managers and many others who are dedicated to making life better for diabetics. For their time and effort, and the potential of what's to come, I am thankful.
And then of course there is insulin. That in itself is a miracle. Insulin and all the other medical developments that have gone into making it possible to live with diabetes. I am also thankful for those who continue to work diligently to improve what we already have and those with the hope for more.
Thank you...

Jurors at the inquest into the 1972 British Army killing of Derry teenager Daniel Hegarty are to begin considering their verdict this afternoon.
Coroner Mr John Lecky is to address the jury at noon following the hearing of evidence on the fatal shooting of the 15 year-old boy during Operation Motorman in Derry. Evidence in what was one of the most controversial killings of the Troubles was heard at Derry courthouse over the last four days. Daniel Hegarty was wounded twice in the head at Creggan Heights in the company of his cousins Thomas (15) and Christopher (17), who was also wounded in the incident, in the early hours of July 31, 1972.
The final statement read to the inquest yesterday was from the commander of the British Army (8th Infantry Brigade) in Derry during Operation Motorman, the largest British Army operation to be mounted since the Suez Crisis in 1956. Major General Brigadier Patrick MacLellan outlined the thinking behind the operation, which was known as Operation Carcan in Derry and said it was designed to "restore law and order" to Creggan and the Bogside.
The inquest also heard from a forensic scientist and ballistics expert, Leo Rossi, who said that Daniel - who the court heard earlier was 5'3" in height and of thin build - was shot from as little as eight feet away.
Mr Rossi said he had made an assessment of the evidence with regards to the ballistics of the case and that he had visited the scene of the shooting in 2010.
He said that Daniel had been shot by rounds from a General Purpose Machine Gun, a weapon capable of firing 800 rounds per minute.
The court heard that some of the soldiers in the Platoon stated that the gun was mounted on the pavement on a bipod and that the soldier who had fired the shots, who was identified as 'Soldier B', had fired from the ground. Mr Rossi said that the angle of the wounds on Daniel Hegarty meant that the gun "would have had to be positioned higher than at ground level". Mr. Rossi suggested that the gun was fired either from the soldier's hip or resting on top of a hedge.
A statement from 'Soldier B', which was read to the court, said he saw one of the three youths with something in his right hand which he thought could be a revolver or a nail bomb and that he fired from a range of about 25 yards.
Mr Rossi concluded that the fatal shots were fired from "an unknown distance which is thought to be approximately eight feet from the deceased".
The inquest is the second into Daniel Hegarty's death. It was set up after an investigation by the Historical Enquiries Team found that the RUC investigation in 1972 was "hopelessly inadequate and dreadful". In 2007, the Ministry of Defence apologised to Daniel's family for a document which incorrectly described him as a terrorist and claimed he had been armed. The MOD said it accepted Daniel was innocent. (See Page 13)

The Dream Wedding Winning Couple:
Matt Rheney & Stephanie Bryant
Our Dream Wedding Couple
Stephanie and Matt have been together for two years. Matt says that Stephanie is truly an angel sent from heaven for him. On August 24, 2005, Matt asked Stephanie to marry him and she said yes. They set a date for October, 2006. Everything was going great until the end of 2005 when Matt began to have discomfort and pain in his left hip and leg. After three or four months of pain, Matt finally had an MRI done on his hip. Two weeks later, he was diagnosed with a disease called Avasular Necrosis in both hips.
Matt is doing a lot better now after having surgery. Stephanie was always by his side, and words cannot express the feelings and emotions that he has for Stephanie. Matt would love to give Stephanie a dream wedding because in Matt's eyes, she deserves it.
