Next scientific fashion could be designer nanocrystals
|(Nanowerk News) These designer atoms would be nanocrystalscrystalline arrays of atoms intended to be manipulated in ways that go beyond standard uses of atoms in the periodic table. Such arrays would be suited to address challenges in solar energy, quantum computing and functional materials.
|The partners in the project are Prof. David Mazziotti, and Associate Professors Greg Engel and Dmitri Talapin. All three have made key advances that are critical for moving the project forward. Now, with $1 million in funding from the W. M. Keck Foundation, they can build on their separate advances in a concerted way toward a new goal.
|Prof. David Mazziotti (above) and colleagues Dmitri Talapin and Greg Engel are attempting to formulate the basic principles needed to improve the efficiency and information transfer of electrons in nanocrystals. That kind of thing you can play into many applications, said Mazziotii.
|If you look at the history of science, a major development starts with people of different backgrounds talking to each other and learning from each other and doing something really revolutionary rather than incremental, Talapin said.
|Developments in Talapins laboratory form the core of the project. A synthetic inorganic chemist, he specializes in creating precisely engineered nanocrystals with well-defined characteristics.
|Nanocrystals consist of hundreds or thousands of atoms. This is small enough that new quantum phenomena begin to emerge, but large enough to provide convenient modules for the design of new materials. Its an interesting combination in that you build materials not from individual atoms, but from the units that resemble atoms in many ways but also behave as a metal, semiconductor or magnet. Its a bit crazy, Talapin said.
|The potential of the new arrangements may exceed that of existing elements. Chemists cannot tune the properties of hydrogen or helium, for example, but they can tune the properties of nanocrystals.
|You build chemistry from atoms, and quantum mechanics provides principles for doing that, said Mazziotti, referring to the laws of physics that dominate the world at ultra-small scales. In the same way, we envision tremendous opportunities in terms of taking nanocrystalline arrays and nanocrystals as the building blocks for new structures where we assemble them into strongly correlated systems.
|Nanocrystalline building blocks
|The essence of strong correlation, of chemical bonds, of chemistry generally, is the connections between particles and how properties of these particles change as they bind to one another, Engel noted. Its about new emerging properties coming from strong mixing between the electronic states of particles, the same way two atoms come together to make a molecule, he said.
|Hydrogen and oxygen gases have very different properties. Yet when two hydrogen atoms share electrons with an oxygen atom, they form water. The UChicago trios ambition is to extend this framework from the level of individual atoms to the level of small, functional objects, such as metal or magnetic semiconductors.
|The key to their project is controlling the degree of correlation between electrons on different nanocrystals. In 2009, Talapin and his collaborators developed a way to control the motions of electrons as they move from one nanocrystal to the next. Their electronic glue enables semiconductor nanocrystals to efficiently transfer their electric charges to one another, an important step in the synthesis of new materials.
|That glue is provided by a special tuning of the behavior of the electrons, Mazziotti said. You want the electrons to have their motions correlated in a special way to allow the efficient transfer of that energy from one nanocrystal to the other.
|Achieving greater control of correlated electronsthose whose motions are linked to each otheron different nanocrystals is the key to success in the Keck project.
|If we can enhance that, then we can essentially develop a whole palette of new materials that essentially derives from using the nanocrystals as building blocks and strong correlation as a way of tuning, essentially, the degree to which or how they talk to each other, Mazziotti said. We want really efficient transfer of energy and information between the different units. Previously in the area of nanocrystalline arrays, the nanocrystals only communicated with each other very weakly.
|Developing a new palette
|Mazziotti and Engel bring theoretical and spectroscopic advances, respectively, to the collaboration. Mazziottis advance provides an alternative to traditional approaches to computing strongly correlated electrons in molecules, which scale exponentially with the number of electrons. He has solved a longstanding problem that enables calculations using just two of a molecules electrons, which dramatically decreases the computational cost.
|His studies of firefly bioluminescence and other phenomena have shown that as molecular systems grow larger, strong correlations between electrons grow more powerful and open new possibilities for emergent behavior. In the context of a semiconducting material such as silicon, emergent behavior is how individual nanoparticles effectively lose their identity, giving rise to collective properties in new materials.
|As the size of a molecular system increases, we see the emergence of new physics behavior and the importance of strong correlation of electrons, Mazziotti said. The importance of strong correlation increases dramatically with system size.
|The advance in Engels research group was the development of a technique called GRadient-Assisted Photon Echo (GRAPE) spectroscopy, which borrows ideas from magnetic resonance imaging but is used for spectroscopy rather than medical imaging. Engel already has used GRAPE to observe the correlated motion and coupling between chromophores, which are light-absorbing molecules. Now he will apply the technique to nanocrystals.
|This, for the first time, will let us really see the direct nature of the electronic coupling thats at the heart of this idea of new bonding concepts in designer atoms, Engel said. Well be able to provide the experimental evidence that will combine the theory that David is developing with the new structures that Dmitri is building.

Rev Dr G. Gordon Allen
G. Gordon Allen Copyright © 1993- 2020
Welcome. It's been 27 years since Gordon Allen had his first cognitive Near Death Experience (NDE). As a young child he had already experienced an NDE which did change his outlook on life but being young he was not prepared for it's true meaning.
Then as an adult he suffered a heart congestive failure which had him take the journey once more. This time he become fully aware of what was transpiring. He had died and returned to life! His returned to life with a profound change that affected his life and that of everyone that has come in contact with him since then. He died and lived to tell about it! He experienced heaven and affirms that it is real. This brought about a new perspective on life and that coupled with his former experience as a successful business man made Gordon the best to deliver the great news that GOD loves us all and that their is a heaven that is waiting for our return. Gordon continued to have several more NDE experiences (read below), each time returning with new revelations and reaffirmations that his mission is not yet complete.
During his first NDE (1993), deeply spiritual teachings were revealed to him. These revelations made Gordon change his life radically. From a wealthy and powerful businessman, he turned into a humble counselor and minister at the service of his fellow human beings. Now today after his other successive NDEs his mission continues through his works. He is the founder of Completion Ministries, a spiritual portal for all.
Rev. G. Gordon Allen: 'My mission in life is sharing the love of God with others and offering them a haven of peace. The wonderful news is that in order to experience the profound love of God, there is no need to have an NDE first.'
Once again we welcome you to our pages and urge you not to be shy to ask us any questions you wish.
We are glad you found us, may God richly bless you!

Improve Your Sweatitude: 9 Motivation Rut Busters
Cheyenne Ellis
"I'm too far from my goal, so why start?"
Rut Buster: How about this for an incentive: Just by walking a little more every day, you can shrink your waist in 12 weeks. When formerly sedentary women consistently tallied a weekly average of 470 steps more a day — that's about a five-minute walk — than they had the week before, they lost a quarter inch from their waistlines without dieting. Whether you have a lot of weight to shed or a certain distance to run, break up your goal into smaller units, suggests trainer Tracey Mallett, creator of the Lose the Belly Flab DVD. Little victories, like dropping a pound a week or running an extra minute without stopping, will fuel your momentum.
Francine Daveta
"I hate cardio."
Rut Buster: Swap endless treadmill time for circuits, suggests trainer Jim Karas, author of The 7-Day Energy Surge. According to a study in the British Journal of Sports Medicine, circuit training beats aerobic exercise for building upper-body strength while giving an equal boost in cardio capacity. Try Karas's technique: Alternate one-minute sets of upper- and lower-body moves, resting for 30 seconds in between and doing each set with enough weight so that your muscles cry uncle at 10 reps.
Cheyenne Ellis
"I'm bored with my same old routine."
Rut Buster: Spicing up your steady sweat sessions with speed will wake up your mojo, a study in the Journal of Sports Science found. Exercisers who did 50-minute runs rated their enjoyment as much higher when they mixed in six 3-minute intervals. Is it time to expand your routine repertoire? Check active.com for sporty events near you, or get free workout podcasts at motiontraxx.com/gseriesfit.

"I don't have the energy."
Rut Buster: Exercising at even a very easy pace will give you more energy than if you sit it out. A University of Georgia study of people who reported persistent fatigue found that those who rode a stationary bike three times a week at low intensity got a bigger energy boost than those who didn't exercise. In a follow-up study, the same cyclers maintained the extra oomph over the six weeks they kept exercising.
Ericka McConnell
"No matter how hard I try, something always foils my workout schedule."
Rut Buster: Get a plan and then grab a pen. People who have a process goal, such as a target number of weekly workouts, stick to their routines with significantly more success than those who focus on a big-picture outcome — such as losing 20 pounds — or go along without any specific goal, a study in the International Journal of Sport and Exercise Psychology found; they also feel less stressed about squeezing in exercise. Next, schedule your gym time just as you would a business meeting. "That way, when someone asks if you can meet at 5, you can honestly say, 'Sorry, I have an appointment; how about 4 instead?'" says Sherri McMillan, owner of Northwest Personal Training in Vancouver, Washington.
Karen Pearson
"I just don't have the time."
Rut Buster: "Most people think they need to exercise for 30 to 60 minutes, which can seem daunting, but you can actually get a better workout in just 20 minutes," says Wayne Westcott, PhD, exercise science instructor at Quincy College in Massachusetts. The time-trimming trick: intervals. Try alternating two minutes of moderate-intensity cardio with two minutes of high-intensity intervals, Westcott suggests, for a simple-to-remember session. Still can't squeeze in 20 in one sitting? Do one 10- to 15-minute session in the morning and one after work. A study at the University of Wisconsin-Oshkosh found that overweight women dropped equal amounts of weight doing one 30-minute workout, two 15-minute sessions, or three 10-minute bouts.
Jason Todd
"I bulk up too fast."
Rut Buster: If you want a foolproof formula for sculpting sleek limbs, "select a weight that you can lift 15 to 18 times," says Michele Olson, PhD, a FITNESS advisory board member and professor of exercise science at the University of Alabama at Montgomery. "That amount is not heavy enough to build any bulk, but your muscles will gain greater tone and increased staying power."
Steve Giralt
"I don't have any indoor options."
Rut Buster: Filter tons of DVD routines at collagevideo.com or online exercises at fitnessmagazine.com/buildavideo by searching for those that don't require equipment.

Stephanie Rausser
"I'm getting nowhere, so why bother?"
Rut Buster: First of all, swap the carrot for the stick. "You didn't gain 10 pounds in 10 days, so it might take a while to lose it," Karas says. "Be patient and visualize yourself in leaner days for positive reinforcement." Then look beyond the scale. "Remind yourself that the benefits of exercise — being healthier, happier, and living longer — are so much greater than the weight loss," says Kelly McGonigal, PhD, a psychologist at Stanford University. But if downsizing is your main motive, raise your game: Pick up your walking pace or add reps or sets. "You can't expect bigger results by doing the same thing," McGonigal says.

"Finding Everett Ruess is easily one of [Roberts'] best….thoughtful and passionate….a compelling portrait of the Ruess myth." -Outside Magazine
"Anyone intrigued by the Ruess phenomenon will be enthralled with Roberts' review of the young man's biography, the stature of his artistic achievements and unrealized potential, and efforts to find and eventually memorialize him…. This is sure to appeal to fans of wilderness wanderers." –Booklist
"Absorbing…A [well researched], readable look at a complex personality in wilderness exploration." -Kirkus Reviews
"Everett Lives! If not in a desert canyon, then at least among the pages where David Roberts brings the young man's life and legend all together: his writings and art, his kinship with nature, his love for adventure and beauty, and the yet-evolving mystery of his disappearance. Count me one among many inspired by a young adventurer who lived in beauty and left us too soon. May we never stop wandering."
-Aron Ralston, author of Between a Rock and a Hard Place and subject of the film 127 Hours
"Roberts deftly..captures the complexity of his subject."
–Publishers Weekly
"I have not tired of the wilderness; rather I enjoy its beauty and the vagrant life I lead, more keenly all the time. I prefer the saddle to the street car and the star sprinkled sky to a roof, the obscure and difficult trail, leading into the unknown, to any paved highway, and the deep peace of the wild to the discontent bred by cities. . . .
"Say that I starved; that I was lost and weary;
That I was burned and blinded by the desert sun;
Footsore, thirsty, sick with strange diseases;
Lonely and wet and cold . . . but that I kept my dream!"
–Everett Ruess

Walker Unveils Aggressive Re-Election Push
Billboard Features Political Foe Tom Barrett
Facing a possible recall election in the new year, Gov. Scott Walker and his supporters are taking a new aggressive approach.
In the span of two days, Walker unveiled a TV ad touting his accomplishments and his campaign opened a re-election office in Waukesha. At the same time the conservative group Wisconsin Club For Growth put up new pro-Walker billboards.
The billboards feature a picture of Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett.
The billboard claims Barrett, a Democrat who may run against Walker in the recall race, saved $25 million thanks to Walker's budget.
Senate Majority Leader Scott Fitzgerald (R-Juneau) said the billboards show their reforms are working.
"You can criticize what Governor Walker and the Republican legislature did, but at the same time using those tools to balance your same budget. There's some hypocrisy there," Fitzgerald said.
Patrick Guarasci, Campaign Advisor for Barrett's mayoral re-election, released this statement: "The only thing accurate about that billboard is the picture of Tom Barrett. Outside special interests, poised to spend millions of dollars, should get their facts straight."

In the world of holiday specials, I'd say that It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown is second only to the Grinch, and it's a close second at that. I loved turning my dial (yes, turning a dial–I'm old) to The Great Pumpkin every year. Now Loud Crow Interactive has delivered It's The Great Pumpkin, Charlie Brown in app form. It delivers on nostalgia, but it also pulls you out of nostalgia with an almost cynical level of digital commerce and connectivity.
Last year, I was delighted by Loud Crow's A Charlie Brown Christmas app, and much of the same excellent elements are used here. The pages are beautifully laid out in a pop-up book format, and the original voice-over of the characters takes you right back to your childhood patch of floor in front of the TV set. This app is best delivered in book form, swiping through the pages at your own pace to hear the story as told by the characters.
There's not much in the way of on-page interactivity, except for some gimmicky things like having cartoon leaves turn into real leaves. This app does carry over one of my favorite features from the Christmas app, though–the ability to play a song on Shroeder's piano. Loud Crow has also ramped up some of the options at the beginning of the book. You can carve your own pumpkin and create your own costumed Peanuts avatar. Your creations appear within the story, which kids will be delighted to see. I particularly liked my avatar trick-or-treating with Charlie Brown in the game.
There are a few problems with that interactivity, though. First, it was buggy. It took us a few tries to get the avatar maker to work, and then on pages when she appeared in the scene, it would take a few seconds for her to pop into place. Second, it's super easy for my daughter to spam my Facebook wall with pumpkins and Peanuts characters with readily accessible Facebook share buttons. Worse than that, though, is the currency structure that Loud Crow has put into place. There are coins and candy, which unlock more features for your avatar. The candy can be earned by completing achievements, but the coins are purchased with real money, with 1,000 coins selling a button touch away from the costumes for $29.99. I'm generally not a fan of in-app purchases in kids' apps, but this level of commerce is insidious. I had to go back and look in the A Charlie Brown Christmas app to see if there were any in-app purchases as I didn't remember any. There were in-app purchases, but they were much more hidden in a section that looked more for parents than kids. That's a much better way to go.
This app sells for $4.99. If you loved the TV special as much as I did, I think it's worth that amount as a co-viewing app where you can share the Halloween nostalgia with your kids. Co-viewing is key, though, as there's a lot you'll want to be watching over here.
Note: I received a review copy of this app.

Comfort sense of living is very important, so that is why many people is looking for the modern home with bookshelf wall for having the best home for them. What we know about it is a house which has the beautiful shape and luxury furniture inside. The other thinks that the beautiful house is the house which is designed by the famous architect. Whatever the opinion but the best is the comfort living when we are staying inside.
We are going to show you how beautiful the house which is designed by Spanish Architectural Firm Terceroderecha Arquitectos. House refurbishment in Silleda was completed last year with 2314 square foot. It was renovation and remodeled which has two volumes separated. The building which looks classic from the front keeps looks so elegant with the nature stone for the wall. For the modern home interior with bookshelf wall bedroom we are sure for having surprise of it.
In other side, the house is made by collaborating with wood material and glass transparent. It looks perfect than we can see how beautiful the interior design inside. The exclusive room with its grey color dominated not only for the wall and floor, but some furniture also in the same. Beautiful bookshelves look so beautiful and tidy. Moreover, for the stairs it can be good place also for saving some books there.
If we are going to the master bedroom, then we can find the beautiful bedroom in white fabric of the blanket. It looks so soft and comfort. Moreover, for the lighting, the room is bright enough. The natural lighting comes from the glass windows. For the walls, it has dark grey color. This will bring us to find the confident in live. We are sure, by applying bookshelf wall ideas everything is designed perfectly in these modern home interior design ideas here, and you would not be regret for staying here.

I recently bought a house where the staircase running down into the garage has gaps between the treads and the edges. They look as if they are about to fall. It would make sense to me that this could happen if the right edge (the edge away from the wall) were loose... but that doesn't appear to be the case. In the pictures you can see that some of the stairs have a space on the left, one has it on the right.

NEW ORLEANS - The first criminal trial produced by the Justice Department's sweeping probe of BP's massive 2010 oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico ended Wednesday with a jury convicting a drilling engineer of trying to obstruct investigators by deleting text messages from his cellular phone.
Kurt Mix, a former BP employee who worked on the company's efforts to stop the nation's worst offshore oil spill, embraced stunned relatives and friends after jurors convicted him of an obstruction-of-justice charge punishable by up to 20 years in prison. The jury acquitted Mix of a second count of the same charge.
Mix, a 52-year-old from Katy, Texas, declined to be interviewed after the verdict, but his attorneys vowed to fight his conviction — a major milestone in an investigation that already has resulted in a guilty plea by BP itself.
Attorney General Eric Holder visited New Orleans in June 2010 to announce that the Justice Department had opened civil and criminal investigations of the spill. Holder vowed the department would be "extremely forceful in our response" if it found any evidence of illegal behaviour.
Dozens of agents from an alphabet's soup of federal agencies assembled in New Orleans for the Deepwater Horizon Task Force's probe. Mix, who was arrested in April 2012, was the first of four current or former BP employees charged with spill-related crimes and the first of them to be tried.
BP took corporate responsibility for its role in the catastrophe earlier this year, pleading guilty in January to manslaughter charges for the workers' deaths and agreeing to pay a record $4 billion in penalties. But none of the top executives at the London-based oil giant have been charged with crimes.
David Uhlmann, a University of Michigan law professor and former chief of the Justice Department's environmental crimes section, said Mix was a "sympathetic defendant" because his conduct seemed relatively minor in the context of a disaster that killed 11 workers and spewed millions of gallons of oil into the Gulf. Uhlmann, however, said the Justice Department appropriately has a "zero-tolerance policy" for those who destroy evidence in a criminal investigation.
"The Gulf oil spill was the worst environmental disaster in U.S. history. Kurt Mix was charged with deleting text messages from his iPhone," he said. "The government was justified in seeking charges, but there's a proportionality problem here."
Bridget Mix, Kurt's sister, called the verdict "just unbelievable."
"You can't wrap your head around any of it," she said.
During his tenure at BP, Mix received 10 separate notices from the company that he was obligated to preserve all of his spill-related records. But the jury concluded that he broke the law in October 2010 when he deleted a string of text messages to and from his supervisor, Jonathan Sprague.
Mix was on a team of experts who worked on BP's unsuccessful attempt to stop the gusher using a technique called a "top kill." He had access to internal data about how much oil was flowing from the blown-out well.
On May 26, 2010, the day that top kill began, Mix estimated in a text to Sprague that more than 630,000 gallons of oil per day were spilling — three times BP's public estimate of 210,000 gallons daily and a rate far greater than what top kill could handle.
During Mix's trial, FBI Special Agent Kelly Bryson testified that "flow rate" during the spill was a focus of the criminal probe. Investigators looked at the differences between what BP knew privately but publicly released about the amount of oil that was gushing from the well, she said.
Prosecutors argued that Mix was trying to destroy evidence when he deleted the messages, but defence lawyers said Mix didn't try to hide anything from the grand jury convened by the federal task force. Mix preserved and turned over other records with the same information contained in the deleted texts, his lawyers said.
"We remain as convinced as ever of Kurt Mix's innocence," defence attorney Joan McPhee said after the verdict. "We intend to continue to fight to ensure that justice is done in this case."
A Justice Department official, Mythili Raman, thanked federal investigators for their "dedication and tenacity" on the case.
"This prosecution shows the commitment of the Justice Department to holding accountable those who interfere with the administration of justice," Raman said in a statement.
In August 2011, Mix also deleted a string of text messages that he exchanged with BP contractor Wilson Arabie. Several weeks earlier, federal authorities had issued a subpoena to BP for copies of Mix's correspondence.
Jurors acquitted Mix of the count that charged him with deleting the string of messages with Arabie and two voicemails — one from Sprague and one from Arabie.
Sprague didn't testify at the trial, but Arabie was a prosecution witness.
Outside the courthouse after the verdict, two jurors told reporters that the lack of testimony from Sprague and the fact that 17 messages in that string couldn't be recovered were factors in their votes to convict Mix on that count.
"Sprague would have been the determining factor," said juror William Gunn, 48. "There were missing texts, and we couldn't tell if they were relevant or not."
"It was the unknown, and Sprague was the other half of that unknown," added fellow juror Scott Galliano, 49.
U.S. District Judge Stanwood Duval Jr. had instructed jurors that they couldn't give "undue weight" to the 17 unrecovered text messages.
On Tuesday evening, jurors told Duval in a note that they were deadlocked and "at a standstill." After returning Wednesday, they deliberated for less than an hour before reaching the unanimous verdict.
"It was just a very tough decision," Galliano said.
Mix, who didn't testify at his two-week trial, remained free on bond pending a sentencing hearing scheduled for March 26.
Jurors deliberated for more than nine hours over three days before reaching the verdict on Mix's case.
Three other current or former BP employees await trials on spill-related criminal charges. Their lawyers attended portions of Mix's trial.
BP well site leaders Robert Kaluza and Donald Vidrine have pleaded not guilty to manslaughter charges in the deaths of workers on the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig. Prosecutors say they botched a key safety test and disregarded abnormally high pressure readings that were glaring signs of trouble before the April 20, 2010, blowout of BP's Macondo well.
Former BP executive David Rainey was charged with concealing information from Congress about the amount of oil spewing from the well.

With a trade, what shot do Rockies have of making the playoffs?
The Rockies lost 98 games a year ago. But on the first day of July, they awoke two games out of first place in the mild, mild National League West. Call me a crazy optimist. But Colorado has a shot at winning the division for the first time in its history.
I say go for it. Trade for a quality starting pitcher, and I think the Rockies have a 40 percent shot of making the playoffs. Matt Garza? Yovani Gallardo? Stand pat, and Colorado could well finish last in the division. Peter Burns of Mile High Sports Radio sees things differently. Listen to us argue it out here:
What shot do you think the Rockies have of making the playoffs: A) Better than 50-50 chance; B) Enough hope to make a trade, or C) A shot in the dark, at best.
Kick it with Kiz and Peter Burns by joining the discussion on Mile High Sports Radio Monday through Friday from 7-9 a.m. At 93.7 FM and 1510 AM.

So my blog has officially become just monthly baby updates. Boo. Maybe one day I will blog about something other than baby boy....
Pres is 9 months and it's been sort of a challenging month. His top two teeth are working their way out and he's been a cranky pants lately. His newest favorite thing is screaming/whining. All.The.Time. It's sort of exhausting to keep up with his mood. When we were in the middle of our horrible sleep strike of 4 months, one of my friends said "oh, just wait until 9 months - that's the most fun age!" Hmmm, I'm not totally sure I agree with her on that one and it shows you how different babies are. I'm not saying 9 months isn't fun, but it's also been a tough month with our cranky, loud and busy kiddo.
Likes: getting into anything and everything, his push walker, speed crawling, standing on his own (what!?!), blankets and pillows, Cheerios, his sippy cup, stealing toys from the other babies at daycare, screaming at the top of his lungs in response to anything, going for horsey rides on Jake's shoulders, chasing Spencer, the dishwasher
Dislikes: getting his diaper or clothes changed, being told no, his carseat, wearing hats, having his nose wiped
Milestones: The biggest thing is that Preston can now stand up on his own without using anything to pull up. He can be in the middle of the room and just stand up and stand up about 10 seconds at a time. His balance is really improving. The first time he did it, I screamed and of course, he got scared/confused and fell down.
Eating: We're down to 3 bottles of 8oz of formula, 2-3 meals and snacks a day. Still loving food of all kinds. Obsessed with Cheerios - he's over puffs at this point. Still eating a banana every morning, along with an organic frozen waffle, organic chicken sausage patty and typically peaches or mandarin oranges. He also loves drinking water out of his sippy (and actually drinks formula out of his sippy at daycare).
Schedule: We had some sleep issues this month, resulting from his ear infection last month. He had gotten used to waking up at 4:45-5:00am when he was sick and we would get him when he would wake up then. That sort of continued after he was feeling better and 4:45am is not an acceptable time to start anyone's day. We had to go back to a little bit of sleep training, but we're back on a 6:00/6:30am wake up now. He's so much happier when he gets better sleep (well, we all are!) He's taking 2 naps a day and the length varies anywhere from 30 minutes (ugh...) to 2.5 hours.
Stats: We haven't had his 9 month doctors appointment yet, but I would estimate he's about 25 pounds at this point and maybe 31" long. He's in 9-12m clothes (12m for footed jammies). Still very long and skinny, just like his dad.
Fun Stuff: We started swim lessons this month and Preston LOVES them! He loves taking a bath, so we figured he would have fun in the "big tub". He splashes like crazy and his favorite part is when they have the babies sit on the edge of the pool and then the parents (daddy - mommy watches from the little waiting area because she doesn't want to put a bathing suit on in March!) let them "jump in" to the pool and catch them. I like that he's getting exposed to being in the water because we plan to spend a lot of the summer at the pool!
He can also give high fives, which is so cute I can't stand it. Still working on waving and clapping. Continuing with sign language, but honestly, when he wants something, his main way of communicating is to scream. We are trying to work on that because I do not want that to be how he asks for something or tells us what he wants.
He's still super busy and not really interested in being cuddled. My favorite part of the day is bedtime, because he is generally pretty cuddly after his bedtime bottle, so I soak up as many cuddles as I can get. We've started with a bit of separation anxiety this month - we can't leave his line of sight without a slight freakout. I'm back to doing some baby wearing in the evenings so I can get things done - he's not the kind of baby that wants to play independently so trying to get him to play while I unload the dishwasher or fold laundry does not work for us.
While this was a challenging month, it was also extremely fun. I can't believe he will be 1 in less than 3 months. 1st birthday party planning is in full swing and I'm sure I'll be doing some posts about what we are doing (it's fishing themed!). My little boy is growing up so fast - time needs to SLOW DOWN! I love you Preston Charles!

It is amazing how fast they grow! Kurt is 10 months tomorrow and is really starting to look like a little boy :)

He is adorable! I personally enjoy your blog. It shows that he is a major part of your life. I mean think about Mary when it came to Jesus. She couldn't blog about all she was experiencing when it came to Him. She had to ponder all those things in her heart. At least this way, you create memorabilia for your son. Blessings!

text: Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light Xbox 360 Timed-Exclusive for Summer of Arcade Xav de Matos July 16, 2010 2:40 PM 7 Lara Croft's first downloadable adventure, Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light, will be available exclusive on the Xbox 360 for at least four weeks, Eurogamer has learned. According to developer Crystal Dynamics, the timed-exclusivity is a requirement of titles included in Microsoft's Summer of Arcade promotion. "Well, for exactly four weeks, really. The agreement with Microsoft is, in order to participate in their hugely successful Summer of Arcade promotion there is a window of exclusivity," Crystal Dynamics' Karl Stewart said. "That window of exclusivity is a set four weeks." Exclusivity in the Summer of Arcade has appeared in the past, as Capcom's crossover fighter Marvel vs. Capcom 2 first released on the Xbox 360 on July 29; however, the PSN version was released less than three weeks later on August 13. Stewart says Crystal Dynamics hopes to have a firm release date for Lara Croft and the Guardian of Light on the PlayStation 3 and PC within "seven to 10 days." Lara Croft joins Limbo, Castlevania: Harmony of Despair and Monday Night Combat as this year's Summer of Arcade catalog. All titles are priced at 1200MS Points. Shacknews has contacted Microsoft for information regarding the exclusivity agreement and when its timeline changed between Summer of Arcade in 2009 and 2010 but has yet to hear back at the time of publishing.

Good old meat loaf gets a face lift in this recipe that landed in Jim's e-mail box.
Just when you think you've eaten every kind of meat loaf known to humans, a new one pops up. So many love affairs, so little time.
We adore meat loaf, crave it actually. We're driving home from work, and we must have it. Period.
Meat loaf is the one sure-fire fast meal. The dog will baby-sit the oven as its irresistible aroma fills the kitchen. Man, my stomach's growling right now.
It took me 10 years to cook my way through my meat-loaf recipe collection. I might add they were 10 very delicious and fulfilling years.
Then Marcia Simmons re-entered my life (via e-mail). Any message with "Try this immediately!" in the subject line catches my eye.
Marcia and I go way back. We'd grab nasty cheeseburgers and burnt fries at the Kent State Hub student center, and pay for it the rest of the day. We've kept in touch, trading recipes and trying to forget those college abominations.
Her meat loaf comes from her Grandma Poulan, and she suspects it's Polish.
"I have about an hour to myself when I get home from work. This fits it perfectly. It only takes 10 minutes to mix," she reports.
There are two things going on here that make this not your usual meat loaf. The tomato sauce adds a tang and welcome moisture. The fried onions are a major surprise, powering it to four stars.
The only thing I added was the carrots. They temper the acid in the tomato sauce, sweetening it just enough.
Marcia likes a glass of Cabernet with her loaf, and baked potatoes with big chunks of butter streaming down the sides. Who doesn't?
I rarely drool over e-mail, but this one started the waterworks. I'm sure there will be arguments, but Marcia's loaf might be the best one yet. Then again, each meat loaf creation seems the best when we get it on the plate. And Lily, our Doxie, is going nuts.
Mix beef with 1/2 cup tomato sauce and 1/2 can of the onions with the remaining ingredients. Load into a loaf pan. Spoon remaining sauce over top.
Set oven at 400 degrees. Just before baking, sprinkle on the rest of the onions. Bake one hour or until the loaf is cooked through and the onions are browned. Allow to sit for 5 minutes outside the oven before slicing.
Options: Bake potatoes at the same time. For a pickle-stuffed loaf, cut the raw mixture in half and place dill pickle slices on the bottom half, then reseal with the top layer. Swiss cheese is good with the pickles. Black olives are another option here. Serves 4.

DSOGaming writes: "Crytek today announced the official opening of Crytek Istanbul, the eighth addition to their worldwide family of studios."
Right so these guys have eight studios and.... like how many products? I've just checked their catalog and it's five released. One of those is iOS. So let's look at their AAA titles. There's Crysis, Crysis Warhead, Crysis 2 and Far Cry.
Hm. Crysis, Crysis Warhead are basically the same. That's three. Crysis is basically the sequel to Far Cry that Ubisoft stiffed Crytek from developing. So you've got a company that has made a couple of good games where you crawl around a jungle and snipe people. They were awesome but then they made crysis 2. A game where you walk around a city and snipe people - that didn't really work.
So we have eight studios and these guys even admit themselves that Crysis and Crysis 2 only broke even. I really feel like who ever is running this company needs a good slap. All those resources being poured into something that hasn't even really proven itself. They have a great engine but it runs on imaginary hardware and graphics have kinded faded in comparison to 'art direction'. It's a little redundant chasing the most realistic direction when we know that isn't the best. Every aspect of their company seems riddled with faults and holes.
My prediction? One maybe two more products that flop and then they'll close their doors. The free to play aspect all but guarantees that, although there is the freak chance they develop the next half life or doom or whatever but they won't. These guys looked at people playing Crysis and thought... "Hmmmm, they look like they need more direction". They're astoundingly gifted programmers but their writing is amateur and despite four entries in the "crying hell there's a lot of jungles and stupidly unnecessary supernatural enemies"-series they never actually improved upon Crysis' predator play style. Great programmers, modellers etc. Terrible company.
Istanbul? Oooh does that mean we get a goat herder/chest-strap suicide bomber simulator? Lol.

Easy Peasy Food Rules
Cookie firmly in hand, I've been observing the grain-free/low-carb/gluten-free/paleo/vegan/raw diets out there. With significant curiosity. I am a scientist, after all. So I'm curious. But skeptical.
Yes, maybe gluten interferes with the thyroid. And maybe grains cause inflammation and immune responses in the body. Or maybe they don't. Maybe they do in some people, and not in others. Maybe cooking food ruins all the enzymes my body needs. I'm still not sure. I'm not going to judge people who've overhauled their diets for just these reasons or for health or just to lose those few extra kilos, because you know what? I have no idea what the right thing to do is.
But I'll tell you what I have learned.
1. Eat what you enjoy and enjoy what you eat,
2. Get as much variety in your diet as possible,
3. Eat real food, and
4. Moderation is not restriction.More on these ...
1. Eat what you enjoy and enjoy what you eat
We're all guilty of sitting down in the front of the computer with our lunch (just to check email ... Twitter ... Facebook ... the other email ... see how many people have visited the blog today ... check and see if Amazon has that book ... have any more emails come through? and so on) - and before you know it, you can't even remember what you put in your mouth. Hopefully it wasn't your napkin.
I don't believe in eating stuff that tastes awful, or that you have to swallow with a glass of juice and a whole lot of concentration (ahem - fish oil). But I do believe in eating what makes me happy, and actually focusing on that food while I'm selecting it, preparing it, and eating it.
Take the time to enjoy your food.
2. Get as much variety in your diet as possible
Variety is easier than it sounds, because sneaky people like to keep things the same. Wheat. Corn. Soy. Wheat. Corn. Soy. Wheat. Corn. Soy. (and if you don't believe me, start checking labels.) I'm pretty sure all of us could eat ingest 5 servings of wheat a day without even noticing. Even more if you're visiting France, trust me.
So what to do? An easy way to incorporate more variety in your life is to eat real food - food that's not processed, that's homemade, that's not out of a packet. Try baking with new types of flour - including low-gluten or gluten-free varieties; eat non-wheat pasta made from brown rice or quinoa; next time you're at the grocery store, pick up one new grain or seed or oil that you've never tried before, buy it, and use it. Seriously, there are thousands of food blogs out there with great recipes for whatever you decide to try.
Diversity in food means more different kinds of nutrients and minerals, different proportions of proteins and fats and it means we aren't assaulting our bodies with the same thing day after day after day. Particularly if there's a chance our bodies are sensitive to those foods. Plus, you haven't known pancakes till you've tried them with buckwheat flour.
Even if you're a picky eater, and you think you only like pasta and grilled cheese sandwiches and chocolate ice cream, there are infinite new foods/recipes/flavours out there for you to try. Start with the flavours found in what you do like, make progressive changes to your faves, and work from there.
Variety is good.
3. Eat real food
I think Michael Pollan has the best checklist for what constitutes real food - and basically it comes down to this: Would your Granny recognise it as food?
I know that not everybody out there wants to make their own yogurt (though you probably do, because you're reading my blog) - but you have choices. You always have choices. You can choose the pink, non-fat, 20% sugar yogurt in the plastic packet and no one is going to judge you as a person or a parent. But maybe just pause and think about what you're putting into your body.
Is it food? Really?Are you feeding your body what it needs? Or are you feeding your guilt, your anxiety, your time management issues? Just asking. No judgement.
Be aware.
4. Moderation is not restriction.
The flip side to diversifying your diet is that you're also moderating it. It's pretty simple, actually: by trying different things, you're not having so much of the same. Wheat in moderation. Grains in moderation. Dairy in moderation. Meat in moderation. Even the good stuff in moderation - using coconut oil/butter/flour in everything cheats your body out of nutrients you might gain by switching products now and then. And I can assure you that even baby carrots should be consumed in moderation.
Maybe moderation sounds boring ... but it's not. Maybe it sounds like the worst diet you ever went on when you were a teenager and before you gave up dieting forever. That's because too often, moderation is errantly linked with restriction. But you don't have to restrict.
If your diet is varied, moderation will be a way of life.
So these are my food rules. My guidelines for choosing what goes into my body - given all the confusing studies and articles and personal anecdotes out there. Maybe you've made different choices for different reasons, and that's totally cool. We're all different little organisms that run in slightly different ways, so it makes sense that there's no one perfect diet out there for everybody. What's important is that you treat your body like it's got a Lexus (or Versace, or Cartier) logo on it. And be happy.

Love these rules! Nicely put indeed =)

This is one of the best posts I've read about food in a while! Such good, solid advice and nothing crazy. And very doable!
I've been following similar rules for a month, and have dropped about 10 pounds!

Love it. And I know it's easy to fall into the trap of giving kids food that aren't that great for them, but how do we know they won't like it if we don't try it?
Your pink yoghurt story made me smile. I made pink smoothies for Sophie's birthday party recently with just strawberries and milk. Some of the kids hated it - "yuck! this is disgusting!". How sad that for them, pink is the taste of sugar and colours, not strawberries. But that was only 2 out of 23 kids, so I'm hoping that many more went away satisfied :)

Are you asking if we hear you? My hand is raised. The more I eat real food the more real food I eat. We seem to eat at home a lot these days... go figure. I'll have another cookie, thank you.
Great post

Peggy, thank you.
Erika, well done!
Paula, why yes that photo was taken on our Grand Canyon misadventure - which is a story for another day ...
Steph, thanks for sharing that! it's amazing how kids learn what colours should 'taste' like. and it provides us with a perfect opportunity.
Deb, you've earned that cookie. enjoy every last mouthful :)

I like the way you think. Moderation is NOT about deprivation. A decadent slice of cake here and there is worth the indulgence, I think. Life is short, might as well make it sweet every now and again!
Variety is also so important, as you've said. And right again, it is so much easier to see diversity in foods if they're fresh, since once they go in the packaging, we don't really know what we're getting.

Your blog has helped me change the way our house eats! My husband and daughter still have some processed stuff, but more and more we're introducing home made things.
I love making my own yoghurt (thank you for sharing how easy it is!), and I'm addicted to eating it more and more now. Just have to convince miss 3yo that my yoghurt is better than the dairy farmers vanilla and strawberry one we currently get (no wiggles or dora here lol). Slowly slowly we're making the change to eat unprocessed.
Little by little, week by week, grain by grain ;)

I shared your post with my nutritionist Long Island, and she loves it! Thank you for sharing your beautiful "rules" and thoughts on food.
- February 27, 2012 at 2:47 AM
These are very helpful tips and I hope you could share these on different Nutrition Forum online. I have to agree with you that get as much variety in your diet as possible. And also, I wanna share a trick I learned from my nutritionist - stay out of the middle of the supermarket; shop on the perimeter of the store. Real food tends to be on the outer edge of the store near the loading docks, where it can be replaced with fresh foods when it goes bad.

The National Communications Commission (NCC) yesterday ruled that Want Want China Times Group (旺旺中時集團) has not met the three conditions it set last year for the group's acquisition of the cable TV services operated by China Network Systems (CNS, 中嘉網路), adding that another administrative hearing would not be necessary.
For the acquisition to be valid, group chairman Tsai Eng-meng (蔡衍明) and his family members or associates must completely dissociate themselves from CtiTV's (中天電視) news channel. China Television Co's (CTV, 中視) digital news channel, which also belongs to the group, must be changed to a non-news channel and CTV must have an independent editorial system.
The commission said that each condition must be met for the Want Want-CNS deal to take effect.
The group filed an application for approval with the commission in December last year after placing 75 percent of the shares in CtiTV owned by the Tsai family in the trust of the Industrial Bank of Taiwan.
NCC Chairperson Howard Shyr (石世豪) said the commission had consulted with the Ministry of Economic Affairs, the agency responsible for enforcing the Trust Act (信託法), which said that placing the property in a third-party trust did not change the controlling relations between the property and the property owner. However, the ministry said such matters must be determined on a case-by-case basis.
"The conditions we set last year said clearly that Tsai and his associates must not 'directly or indirectly control or hold the shares of CtTiTV,'" Shyr said. "Judging from their application, the group did not meet that condition."
Andy Hsieh (謝煥乾), director of the commission's legal department, said the ruling showed the group cannot win approval by placing the shares under the trust of a third party. If the group finds another way to meet the conditions, it can file another application, he said.
In other developments, the commission released a draft broadcasting media monopolization prevention and diversity preservation act (廣播電視壟斷防制與多元維護法), also known as the "media anti-monopolization act."
The draft act contains 53 articles. Regulations on cross-media ownership state that the commission will ban mergers between print and broadcasting media if such a merger would have an overall influence on public opinion comparable to a television viewership rate of more than 20 percent, because it would create "a substantial danger" leading to a media monopoly.
If a cross-media merger involves news channels or channels airing news programs, the commission would be able to ban the merger if it would create an influence comparable to a TV viewership rate of 15 percent.
The act would also ban mergers among terrestrial TV services or the merger of radio services if one of the parties to the proposed merger reaches 75 percent of the nation's population. A merger of two radio services would be banned if it would create a listenership rate exceeding 15 percent in a certain area or a national listening rate of more than 10 percent.
Mergers of satellite channels would be banned if they would cause the TV viewership rate to exceed 15 percent. However, if a merger takes place among satellite news channels, the viewership rate threshold would drop to 10 percent.
The draft also states that cable TV operators cannot give differential treatment to different channel operators without a legitimate reason. A merger between two cable TV services would be banned if the TV channels owned or operated by the two operators would jointly create a TV viewership share exceeding 15 percent.
The commission set four more principles guiding future rulings.
The draft proposal would authorize the commission to entrust a professional third party with the task of regularly conducting surveys on the readership, listenership and viewership of newspapers, radio stations and TV channels to help it gauge media outlets' influence. Media outlets could not refuse a request for such information without a valid reason. Data collected through such surveys would be made public, the commission said.
The proposal said that a media outlet's influence would also be weighted if it owns more than one channel.

I've never been a fan of film's mumblecore movement or its chief purveyors, Mark and Jay Duplass. The whole idea of twenty-somethings prattling on about their mundane lives in improvised scenes shot with handheld digital cameras makes me cringe. With this in mind, it was with great trepidation that I walked into the Duplasses' "Cyrus," the story of a slightly crazed 21-year-old new-age musician who has grown much too close to his mother.
I've never been a fan of film's mumblecore movement or its chief purveyors, Mark and Jay Duplass. The whole idea of twenty-somethings prattling on about their mundane lives in improvised scenes shot with handheld digital cameras makes me cringe.
I'm not certain, but it's a good bet that it wasn't a coincidence that the villain in the brothers' "Baghead" wore a sack over his noggin. I would have been ashamed, too.
With this in mind, it was with great trepidation that I walked into the Duplasses' "Cyrus," the story of a slightly crazed 21-year-old new-age musician who has grown much too close to his mother.
I walked out a changed man. Not only did I learn to admire and respect the Duplass brothers, I also discovered a newfound appreciation for roly-poly Jonah Hill.
OK, I wasn't buying the notion that the round mound of clown crawled out of Marisa Tomei's womb (ouch!), but I was digging how gracefully he walked the line between lovable and creepy, never tipping off on which side of the rope he'd end up falling.
Other than Larry David, I cannot remember an actor who had me so on edge, or one who made me feel more wonderfully uncomfortable. I was also a tad envious when the young man strutted into the bathroom and shut the door while Tomei, playing his mom, was buck naked in the shower. Some actors have all the luck.
But I regress. Back to the issue at hand: Marisa Tomei, naked in the shower. Given my love for the gorgeous Oscar winner, that alone is enough reason to like any movie. But the Duplass brothers have gone one better and given her a fairly decent story to go with the gratuitous nudity.
It involves a bizarre love triangle between Hill, Tomei and Mom's new sad-sack boyfriend, played splendidly by the master of deadpan, John C. Reilly. Thankfully, this ménage à trois is pretty platonic, but it does incorporate intriguing elements of jealousy, ego and comedic one-upmanship.
The dynamic here with the most authority, however, is the insight the Duplass brothers offer into the emotional minefield that results when a relationship between a single mother and her only child grows too insular and codependent for their own good.
It's a shame Sigmund Freud didn't live to see it. Luckily, those of us still among the breathing can – and should – see it, for no other reason than the extraordinary performances by the three leads. They flawlessly turn caricatures into full-bodied characters by adding realism and dimension through their extensive improvisational skills.
That proves invaluable, too, because the underlying story is rather preposterous. And I don't necessarily mean the fantastical conceit that a woman who looks like Tomei would fall for an awkward schlub like Reilly's John, a divorced loser who still clings to his overly patient ex, played by the great Catherine Keener.
He and Tomei's Molly meet cute at a party. He's out back urinating in the bushes and she catches him in the act. Most people, of course, would be repulsed. But not Molly; she inexplicably starts flirting with him.
One thing leads to another, and before you know it, John is stalking the somewhat secretive Molly to find out where she lives and why she is so reluctant to open up to him. And what he finds is Hill's Cyrus, a man-child musical genius with an ornery streak a mile long.
Condescension, jealousy and distrust quickly ensue. And in literally no time, John and Cyrus find themselves engaged in an intense game of psychological warfare.
It proves as ridiculous as it sounds, too. There is also the inescapable feeling that you've seen this sort of thing before. And, you probably have. Reilly alone did two movies two summers ago, "Step Brothers" and "The Promotion," in which he was a combatant in an exchange of pranks and dirty tricks with a rival.
Despite the familiarity of the story, the Duplasses, with a huge assist from their actors, manage to make it feel just different enough to succeed. And the reason "Cyrus" works as well as it does is because the characters' motivations – no matter how evil they might seem – are always borne out of love.
You realize that because of the emotional attachment you develop for the characters. Sure, they're selfish and they behave childishly, but no matter how ill at ease they make you feel, you cannot help but be drawn to them and empathize.
Clearly, it's not a movie for everyone, but "Cyrus" is sure to appeal to a much larger audience than any of the Duplasses' previous films. And if, like me, you were among the unfortunate few who saw "Baghead" or their debut, "The Puffy Chair," you'll marvel at the exponential jump in talent and maturity on display.
That, along with their stellar cast, make "Cyrus" one of the summer's edgiest delights. And in a summer as lame as this one, that's saying a lot.
CYRUS (R for language and some sexual material.) Cast includes Jonah Hill, Marisa Tomei, John C. Reilly and Catherine Keener. Written and directed by Mark and Jay Duplass. 3 stars out of 4.

Sorry, but Wise wasn't doubled off of first, he had just hit a single,there was only one out, all runners were free to advance. Wise had to be tagged out, there was no force-out in place, and Stanton would have batted even if Wise had been tagged out.ReplyDelete
The fact is that Izzy served one up, over the plate, and Stanton crushed it.

Murphy vapor locked. It happens. No need to say he can't play baseball. He can. The Mets have a lot of average or below average hitters on the team. Murph is hitting .320. Give him a break. Izzy served up the game winner, and the offense was offensive before the 10th except for Duda's blast. Missing Beltran yet?ReplyDelete
- AnonymousAugust 2, 2011 at 11:28 AM
Stanton wouldn't have batted because the assumption is that he would have been intentionally walked with 1B open if they had gotten Wise. Collins confirmed this after the game, saying he would have walked Stanton to get to Peterson.ReplyDelete
Murphy is a one-tool player. He can hit baseballs. But Joe's right, he can't PLAY baseball. Terrible defensively at every position they try him at, terrible baserunner. It's an embarassment having him out there on the field whenever he's not in the batters box.
I'm not in agreement here, Joe. Considering all the injuries, Murphy, as much as anyone on the team, has been a key reason the Mets are where they are right now. He's hitting .382 since the All-Star break. Granted his fielding leaves much to be desired at times, but he's not a 1st baseman (although his play at Washington in the 9th the other day was Hernandez-like). When all is said and done, he's still a great hitter. He's also still young. Just needs a bit more work in the field.ReplyDelete
Murphy's bat is great, but his fielding? Well, we all saw what he's capable of last night. Why not shift Bay over to right and put Murph in left so he does the least amount of damage?ReplyDelete
Sorry for all the disagreements. But I think at this level, Kid or no Kid, the fundamentals of baseball can't be ignored.ReplyDelete
I agree. Murphy is a great hitter. He works hard. Plays hard. But he can't play any position they put him at. To me that is not a Ballplayer. he's a DH.
- AnonymousAugust 2, 2011 at 3:55 PM
Did Murphy give up 3 straight singles followed by a monster HR?ReplyDelete
No But he did allow Stanton to get up with the bases loaded to be able to hit the Monster Homerun.ReplyDelete
Are we seriously looking at Murph as the problem? Try looking at the starting pitching. That's who should be writing on the blackboard. Murph shouldn't be the scapegoat. Minaya is to blame. The Wilpon's are to blame. We are lucky to be over .500. If it weren't for likes of Murphy, we'd be holding hands with the Dodgers. Please. Next week it will be someone else.ReplyDelete
All, I'm a huge fan of what Daniel Murphy contributes to this team. Did you see his throw out at third base when the Nats were closing in on the game-winning run July 31st. That was very Hernandez-esque. Don't knock him for making 2-3 bonehead plays. He's helped us win a number of games we probably shouldn't have had a chance to win either.ReplyDelete
Good post it's amazing the knowledge you have in your NicheReplyDelete
