Augmented Reality Drink Coaster
This seems like a good Friday post - drink coasters. And not just any drink coasters, augmented reality drink coasters designed by our friends at Atomic Playpen. These ephemera inspired coasters were sent out to Atomic clients in a metal case. There are four coasters inside, each with a different marker on the back side. The instructions direct you to their anniversary website where you hold up one of the markers to your webcam and enjoy the action. (If you don't have a coaster from Atomic, you can still print a marker at the site and give it a try.) We letterpress printed them on 60pt blotter board with very dense black ink coverage so the marker would work properly. The sheet was then die cut into the four coasters. So cheers, we'll have another round and add it to our beer wall.


text: Adrienne So over at Slate has used her natural gifts to come up with the most genius idea yet: an energy-generating bra. Instead of just holding her boobs in place and dispelling that excess kinetic energy into, I don't know, heat, why not use it to power a gadget? According to a breast specialist, a D-cup in a lousy bra moves up to 35-inches up and down during exercise. Professor Wang of Georgia Tech is working on just this problem, using nanowires inside fabric to convert that visual spectacle into something useful. But is it enough to power an average iPod? This Wang says yes. [Slate]

People hate their wireless carriers, yet we put up with them anyway. Alongside death, taxes, and the Star Wars prequels, wireless carriers are something we must accept. While they're trying to repent their ways with new plans, deals, and enticing features, carriers in America are still capable of displeasing their customers. But if you look at wireless companies in other countries, and the actions of our carriers from a few years ago, you start to realize something: U.S. carriers are charging less than they were before, and they're more in line with their European and Asian counterparts.
So, AT&T, Sprint, T-Mobile, Verizon; listen up. You've got a relatively good thing going now, but we know you can still do better.
U.S. carrier plans are more reasonably priced
It shouldn't cost more than $100 a month to own a smartphone, and it shouldn't cost up to $70 a month for a basic phone either.
The price for wireless service anywhere still varies greatly due to a number of reasons, but let's start with something simple that should be pretty inexpensive: A smartphone plan with a few gigabytes of data, a lot of minutes, and unlimited messaging. This is a wireless plan that's pretty typical with all the necessities covered whether you love your iPhone or your Galaxy S8.
If you're in America, you can choose between any of the Big Four and pay anywhere from $35 to $60 a month depending on your carrier of choice, and any additional features like HD streaming. Verizon has the cheapest base plan at $35 a month for 2GB data, and unlimited talk and text, but if you go for its Unlimited plan, which has unlimited data, talk, text, and HD video streaming, prices start at $60 (not counting line pricing). When comparing the Big Four's Unlimited plans, there's about a $10 difference between all of them.

In the UK, there are still a handful of carriers, and their prices cover a wide range. Vodafone, Orange, and Everything & Everywhere (EE) — a collaboration between Orange and T-Mobile — dominate the cellular scene there. All three carriers are cheaper for similar service to each of the four U.S. carriers, ranging from $25 a month for 2GB of data on (EE), to $27 a month (Orange), to $37 a month for 4GB of data (Vodafone).
Orange (in France) sells a wireless plan with unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, and 2GB of data for $27 a month. A major carrier in Spain, Telefónica offers a plan with 3GB of high speed data, unlimited calls, and texting for about $65 a month. That's not bad, but considering AT&T can do unlimited data, talks, and text for $5 cheaper, Telefonica still has room for improvement.
Let's not forget about Hong Kong and Japan. In Hong Kong, Hutchinson (also known as 'Three') will give you a 2.5GB high speed wireless plan with plenty of minutes for $52 a month. A similar, yet slightly better deal comes from Softbank in Japan, which will charge you $55 for unlimited 3G data and texting, and free calling to other Softbank users and landlines.

While we're just talking about a simple smartphone plan here, the fact remains that just about any plan you can find in Europe, the UK, Hong Kong, or Japan, more than likely has a similar counterpart in the U.S. What international carriers have over American plans, however, are the amount of minutes and data you can get; people have more options if they don't want to pay more for unlimited.
2-year contracts are (thankfully) a thing of the past
What could you do in two years? While most of us can't see two weeks ahead, let alone two years, it eventually became a magic number for American carriers to pair with new plans. Until recently, it was plain silly and not in the consumer's best interest.
Thankfully, 2-year contracts aren't what they used to be, to the point that the four main carriers in the U.S. have stopped using them. AT&T did away with such contracts last year, and Sprint did the same. Verizon began moving away from them in 2015, and completely removed them in January. T-Mobile started the trend.
Across the Atlantic, many of the biggest mobile operators in Europe and the UK have made similar changes. Once upon a time, carriers would push 1-year contracts, 1.5 year contracts, or offer an incentive of some kind to go for the 2-year lock-in. Now, they offer and emphasize a variety of monthly phone, data, and pay as you go plans, which also leave customers open to upgrading their phones when they get the urge, just like the U.S.

i wanna stop being bulimic

i wanna stop being bulimic ... but how ?

replied August 27th, 2012
Once you are full-blown bulimic, it is extremely hard, if not impossible, to stop just based on your own motivation. If nobody knows about your bulimia, then that is the first and foremost step. Anyone who loves you, and/or anyone you trust. Family is preferable. Tell your mom. Tell your best friend. You can't do this alone. Tell them that you have a problem, and that you know you need help. If you really don't want to tell them first, try your doctor. Although your family will know in the end, but sometimes it's easier to reveal it to non-family first. Also, you obviously have already recognized that you have a problem. Many people with eating disorders are in denial that it's even a problem. So brownie-points for you! That's another major first step.
Your mind is half the battle. Eating disorders aren't a physical thing at heart, the physical stuff that happens (starving, throwing-up, any other dangerous activities), happens as a result of what starts in your mind. A low self-esteem, pressure to be skinny, playing the comparison-game. Maybe you're not sure of the reason. But, obviously there is one. That's what doctors, and therapists, and those you love, help you to figure out. When telling parents, they may be a little angry at first. It may happen. But the first step is always the hardest, and they will want to help you get better as much as you do. I know you don't want to hurt them, but which would hurt them more: telling them you have an eating disorder (and then fixing the problem together), or them having to mourn your death when your heart stops, due to your eating disorder. ? Think about it.
It's hard, but you already reaching out shows that you have the strength to pull through. I hope you realize in time, that you're a very special person. That no one could ever replace you. That the shape of our body doesn't define who we are.
"You don't have a soul. You are a soul. You have a body." C.S. Lewis
Good luck! My heart goes out to you!

My husband and I rented 4150 Bart Giffin road from Sam and Ruth Youngblood, from July 2013 through may 2014. Before we moved in we seen mold in the bathroom downstairs, and in the garage, the smell would knock you down when you opened any door in the house. We expressed to the youngbloods our concern, they assured us it was mold free..the property had been sitting empty for over 10 years, and the first time we left to go out of town, we were broke into. Just after being in the house 4 days, we called indoor air, mike church to have it tested for mold, the results were 3 types of toxic mold in the garage, basement, under the kitchen windows, basement carpet and atic. Sam Youngblood was NOT concerned about the safety of our health and Would do nothing to rid the house of mold, so we had to move. It was a NIGHT Mare living in that house.See this property: 4150 BART GIFFIN RD, MARYVILLE, TN

Suisse Cocktail
The White of 1 Egg. (1/2 oz Egg White)
4 Dashes Anisette. (1/4 oz Anis del Mono Dulce)
1 Liqueur Glass Absinthe. (1 1/2 oz Greenway Distiller's Absinthe)
Syrup or Sugar can be used instead of Anisette.
Shake well and strain into medium size glass. (Add a dash of Blanquette de Limoux, Cuvee Berlene 2005 on top.)
When you examine Harry MacElhone's recipe for the "Swisess" from "Barflies and Cocktails" you see that, perhaps, Mr. Craddock missed something.
Swisess. 1 white of a Fresh Egg; 1 teapoonful of Anisette Syrup; 1 glass of Absinthe. Shake well together and strain into a small wineglass, and add a dash of syphon on top. This is a very good bracer for that feeling of the morning after the night before.
Ah, a dash of syphon! Hmmm… Wait, I think the soda water is a little tired, but I still have some fairly fresh Blanquette de Limoux. No, I couldn't, that would be just too evil. Oh yes, yes I can.
Well, plus, I did have to include Harry MacElhone's quote, as it is one of my all time favorite turns of phrase describing a hangover.
Still don't have appropriate fizz glasses, so sad. This souvenir beer glass from Jesse Friedman's Notoberfest 2009 is actually not all that bad. About the right size, and not a horrible shape for a fizz. Probably the best I have at the moment.
Is the cocktail any good? Well, if you like Death in the Afternoon, this is a richer, anisier drink. I enjoyed it, especially with the delicious complexity of the Germain-Robin/Greenway Distillers Absinthe Superior. Quite nice.
This post is one in a series documenting my ongoing effort to make all of the cocktails in the Savoy Cocktail Book, starting at the first, Abbey, and ending at the last, Zed.

BRIDGEPORT, Pa. – Freshman Nolan Kruse (Orcutt, Calif.) was named the Collegiate Water Polo Association (CWPA) Defensive Player of the Week on Wednesday evening following a strong weekend in net at the CWPA Northern Division Championships at Harvard. This is the first time that he has received this particular honor, after being named Rookie of the Week twice in October.
MIT played three very close and aggressive games on Saturday and Sunday, ending the Championships in fourth place after defeating Iona College, 11-10, falling to host Harvard, 9-6, and being edged by Brown University, 10-9. The Engineers are currently 12-14 on the season.
Against Iona, Kruse had an impressive 14 blocks and one steal, while allowing 10 goals. Later that day against Harvard, he had seven blocks, two steals and eight goals allowed. To end the Championships on Sunday, he had seven blocks, four steals and 10 goals allowed against Brown. He currently leads the MIT goaltenders with his 149 total blocks and 19 steals, while being second on the team with his three assists.
Tech's season will officially come to a close next weekend when it travels to Brown University one last time, this time for the CWPA Championships, which will take place from Friday through Sunday, Nov. 22-24. The Cardinal and Gray will first face Mercyhurst University at 11:20 on the opening day of the Championships. The remaining games and opponents will be determined depending on the outcome of that game.

At last Monday's debate Mitt Romney said the United States is "heading toward Greece." That remark was filled with bitter ironies, not the least of which is the fact that the world's current economic miseries were triggered by financial speculators like Romney himself. And while Romney says his harsh economic policies are designed to reduce the national debt, we now have proof they'll have the opposite effect.
European austerity, like its American counterpart, isn't just morally wrong: It's also self-defeating.
Nations like Greece aren't just wracked with sky-high unemployment, endangered by full-scale depression, and experiencing the first throes of social disintegration. They're also struggling with soaring debt. That why even the International Monetary Fund, hardly a bastion of leftist dissidence, has turned against Romney-style austerity.
The United States isn't immune from contagion if Romney and Ryan enact a full-blown austerity program. The riot-torn streets and malarial villages of Greece could become our nation's future.
Austerity Increases Debt
Two stories seemed to tell a contradictory story this week. One said that European countries like Greece were "closing their spending gap," while another said that their overall debt was soaring.
Here's how that happens: When a country's economy is collapsing from within, investors don't feel as safe lending it money and its interest rates go up. When it goes up too quickly it increases the overall national debt. And if the austerity measures also inhibit economic growth, government debt becomes a larger percentage of the overall economy. That's what's happening in Europe's troubled countries.
Where it isn't happening is here in the United States, even though the austerity mavens have been warning us for years that we'll see our interest rates soar unless we immediately — immediately! — enact the kinds of steep spending cuts we've seen in Europe. But austerity's ever-shrill avatars are undaunted by reality. Our Alan Simpsons and Erskine Bowleses keep on shrieking that we must follow Europe's path or we're avoiding our "moment of truth."
Here's the real truth: Every time these European nations have made austerity cuts it's made their economies worse — and increased their debt. Meanwhile investors are essentially paying the U.S. Treasury to let them lend us money — money we're not using to create badly-needed jobs here at home.
Yet all we hear from Washington is chatter about a "Grand Bargain," when we should be talking about a "Grand Borrowing" — a smart and targeted short-term plan that would jump-start our economy, put millions of people back to work, and cut the debt more effectively in the long run.
Economic Death Trip
Don't take a lefty's word for it. Just look at the stock market's response to austerity's effects. The market tanked on Europe's news. Investors know that they can't prosper in a grim and shrinking economy. The only corporate types who aren't pessimistic are financial speculators like Romney, the economic undertakers who can make a buck betting against their own country's growth as easily as they can betting for it.
And speaking of undertakers: Things have gotten so bad in Greece that, as a middle-aged Greek woman notes, "families can no longer afford to even bury their dead. Bodies lie unclaimed at public hospitals so that the local municipality can bury them." That's bad news for Greece's funeral industry — but maybe they can make it up in volume. Malaria has returned to island, thanks to austerity-driven budget cuts which sharply reduced government anti-mosquito spraying, and Greece is struggling with a severe drug shortage brought on by forced reductions to pharmacy spending in its austerity package.
Food prices remain a serious problem, as questions linger about the role of commodities speculators (including banks) are inflating those prices. (European banks have been more responsive to pressure from charitable groups and political interests than their US counterparts — perhaps because they're not quite as coddled?)
Social Breakdown
When an economy fails, society starts breaking down. Greece has been wracked by repeated general strikes. There's a sharp rise in murderous thugs on the Greek streets, as fascist shock troops for the neo-Nazi "Party of the Golden Dawn" begin beating people on the streets of Athens — sometimes while the police look on passively.
Young people suffer especially hard — and that makes it worse for everybody. A research agency of the European Union recently concluded that Europe lost more than $198 billion this year — nearly $4 billion a week in social welfare costs and lost growth — as the result of the "NEET" problem (young people who are not employed, in training, or being educated).
Each year a young person remains idle typically robs him or her of future earnings. How much of our own economic future have we already sacrificed to cuts in education, and to our political inability to put our own unemployment-wracked young people on the path to fruitful careers?
The other day students were protesting Greece's severe cuts to arts and music education. That proposal resembles Romney's own education plan, which would restrict student aid to coursework that would give young people employable "technical" skills. That would accelerate our shift from a society that values the arts, and the life of the mind, to one that sees our children as nothing more than future cogs in a global corporate machine.
Persistent Vegetative Banking State
The IMF identified another source for Europe's problems. "The financial system is still not functioning efficiently," its report concluded. "In many countries, banks are still weak, and their positions are made worse by low growth. As a result, many borrowers still face tight borrowing conditions."
We have weak banks, too, although we continue to prop them up relentlessly (and to treat underperforming CEOs like Jamie Dimon as if they were wizards of finance). The regulations we've put in place to prevent another financial crisis aren't nearly as strong as they need to be — but Romney would eliminate them altogether.
Like Europe's banks, Wall Street isn't doing much lending to consumers. What should we do? Those "lefties" at the IMF have some good suggestions: do more to relieve household debt, "increasing the participation of government-sponsored enterprises in the principal reduction program, supporting refinancing on a larger scale, and converting foreclosed property into rental property to limit the downward price pressure."
Here, too, Romney would replace an inadequate response with a highly destructive one.
Stimulus Works
One of the few flickers of European good news — if you define "good news" as "news that's not as bad as expected" — was the report that Great Britain's last quarter, wasn't quite as recessionary as expected. That was probably due in large part to that country's hosting of the Olympics and Paralympics, which led to increased government spending.
Get the hint, Europe?
The current Administration's efforts in these areas has been lackluster at best, probably because it's tried to compromise with Republicans who have exactly the wrong economic ideas. (Nick Kristof has an excellent rundown of the GOP's erroneous past economic prescriptions, which would be hilarious if they weren't so tragic.)
But Romney would take us in exactly the wrong direction. He'd cut government spending and allow the housing market to collapse altogether, without safeguards for beleaguered homeowners. (Even cash-strapped Greece has been looking the other way when its millionaires park their money offshore to evade taxes; sound familiar, Mr. Romney?)
Despite the evidence, Mitt Romney wants to give us the same dose of austerity Europe's been getting. It'll have the same result.
Ghost of Economies Future
Those who think "it can't happen here" when they hear about malaria or fascist racism should review the Romney/Ryan budget. It slashes funds for everything from disaster relief (which could leave survivors of a catastrophe homeless and starving) to public health and local law enforcement.
For thuggery they need look no further than the rise in anti-Muslim violence — and the widespread belief that the president of the United States is a Muslim foreigner (a topic Mr. Romney found appropriate to joke about).
Nationalism and rage have been on the rise as countries like Greece have been forced to accept humiliating economic deals in order to stay afloat, one of which is to make repaying bankers a higher national priority than serving its own citizens. That's where austerity inevitably leads: the overruling of democratic process by financial elites.
Americans have been remarkably tolerant of the economic hardship imposed on them so far. But if austerity continues to be pushed on them, that may not last forever.
It takes a blind eye for history and a deaf ear for economics not to understand that Europe's agonies — riots, social breakdowns, even food shortages — could soon become our own. And let's not forget: as bad as things are in Europe, they can always get worse.
Like the old movie poster said: Be afraid. Be very afraid.
(UPDATE: I've amended the description of austerity's negative impact on debt burdens from the original post, which failed to explain the impact of contracting economies on the debt-to- GDP ratio. In the struggle to strike the right balance between accuracy and readability, I swung too far to the "readability" side of the scale and neglected an important aspect of the problem. My apologies, and we'll keep working on that balance!)

Republicans at a crossroads
LAS VEGAS — Republican governors are torn between essentially staying the course in the wake of Mitt Romney's loss and a more proactive strategy aimed at radically shaking up their party in an effort to reach out to young and minority voters.
Some governors believe that Romney's loss two weeks ago to President Barack Obama was just that — a loss by a single candidate who ran a defensive campaign pummeled by negative ads and lacking in vision. They advocate sticking to a tried-and-true formula of running their own races and hewing to local instead of national dynamics.
Story Continued Below
But other Republicans here attending the Republican Governors Association conference last week believe a more dramatic Republican makeover is in order. They argue that they and the party must reach out to young and minority voters, especially Latinos, in order to win in 2014 and beyond.
Most of the nine Republican governors who face 2014 reelection battles in states Obama just carried are confident that they won't face the same fate as Romney two years from now — that is, defeat.
( Also on POLITICO: Some GOP govs soften on taxes)
With a victory in North Carolina this month, the GOP will hold 30 total statehouses — one more than before the election. By virtue of their 2010 gains, Republicans enter the 2014 midterm elections defending 22 governorships compared to 13 for the Democrats. Some Republican incumbents, like Pennsylvania Gov. Tom Corbett, look especially vulnerable.
"Any time you've got more of your own people up, just mathematically you worry about it," said Virginia Gov. Bob McDonnell, the term-limited, outgoing RGA chairman whose state was heavily contested but won by Obama in 2012. "But even throughout this Obama wave of election and reelection, Republican governors continue to gain seats because of a record of results and the messaging of the candidates."
But McDonnell — a prominent Romney surrogate — was candid in his assessment of what the party needs in order to win in the future. And he bluntly rejected suggestions like the one made by Romney in the GOP primaries that illegal immigrants could "self-deport" as a means of solving the country's immigration problem.
"We have to realize: We're not going to deport 12 million people," he said. "It's just not going to happen."
Some Republican governors said Obama's victory was the result of his negative attacks on Romney and didn't necessarily demand a wholesale revamp of the Republican Party.
"It is a credit to the community organizer in chief," said Iowa Gov. Terry Branstad, who will likely run for reelection in 2014 in a state Obama won by 6 percentage points. "[Democrats] certainly didn't win it on the issues or on his record. They did an effective job of smearing [Romney]."t

I just got home from a long weekend in New York. Yep, that's me in the photo, relishing in the weird madness of Times Square, my plaid coat swimming in a sea of black jackets. This was my first trip to NYC, and let me tell you, I drank it up. Site-seeing and aimless wandering aside, the main reason for going was my appointment with Dr. Bernard Raxlen, a well-known LLMD who specializes in the treatment of tick-borne illnesses. The appointment was wonderful; the office was private and quiet, and he was supportive and knowledgeable. In short, it was a great relief to finally feel like I have answers to all those questions I had. I realized, once again, that I have a whole lot of stuff going on that I had learned to ignore or write off to "other things", whatever I thought those things were, who knows. I now have a fist full of prescriptions to fill for antibiotics, thyroid medication, anti-yeast medication to add to my already full pill schedule. If you want to know more about my treatment, check out my post on my other blog, The Healing Journal. It feels amazing to have answers, finally.
But, as the Buddha said, all things in moderation; I also made sure to have lots and lots of fun. It was my first trip to New York, and I completely and totally fell in love.
I ran on adrenalin.
I absorbed New York big time. It is a city of many cities, each neighborhood unique. I was staying with a dear friend who lives near Columbia in the Upper West Side. He was a total darling, and gave me the grand tour. I'm a wanderer when I travel, not a planner, and he has the same approach, so we travelled together swimmingly. We went all over the city, hitting up his painting studio, checking out films in Harlem and Chelsea, hitting up all the tourist wonderment of Times Square and Rockafeller Center, and wandered over to the East Village for vintage shopping. We shared a table with a stranger at dinner, got invited to a party at his apartment that evening, attended the party, and had an amazing time. We wandered Chinatown, Little Italy, saw the South Sea Harbor, the site of the Twin Towers, and the Financial District. We walked through Central Park. I learned to use the public transit system there, even navigating it on my own! I combatted my blood sugar crashes by packing a ton of me-friendly snacks and carrying them around with me on our adventures (an extra big purse beats passing out anyday). I worked around my dietary restrictions by seeking out restaurants with menus I could negotiate (I love Google). I dragged myself up stairs, stairs and more stairs, taking breaks when I needed to (I get winded and totally exhausted with stairs these days…thanks, Lyme Disease). I had fun and felt totally confident with new people at that apartment party without drinking a drop of alcohol (I stopped drinking a couple years ago because it was making me feel terrible). I felt more like my old self again; adventurous, carefree, spontaneous.
Amidst all the fun I fit in my admissions phone interview with the Oregon College of Oriental Medicine. I will hear this week regarding my acceptance - fingers crossed!!!
Of course, I wanted to provide you a round-up of my gluten free, allergy friendly culinary adventures. The hardest part about it, honestly, was asking questions at restaurants. New York has a huge immigrant population, and many of them work in food service - some of my servers and people working at the counters didn't speak English well, and my questions were misunderstood and required a lot of clarification. New York has tons of great choices for those of us with restrictions, so with a little homework, you have lots of options. So here goes, starting with the dinner I packed in my carry-on for the flight there...
ON THE ROAD CHICKPEA SALAD (gluten free, vegan)
1 cup cooked chickpeas
1/2 cup cooked quinoa
1 small cucumber, peeled and seeded
handful parsley, chopped
1/2 red onion, finely chopped
pinch dry mint
1/2 tsp cumin seeds, toasted
1/2 tsp coriander
splash ume vinegar and olive oil
optional: other veggies, other spices
Mix ingredients together in a bowl, and take with you. Lasts well unrefrigerated for up to 4-5 hours. Delicious!
Side notes: I wanted to go to Just Salad (another salad place with GF callouts on the menu), but came across Chop't first. Walking 3 more blocks and navigating Rockafellar Center on a busy Saturday just to get a salad when Chop't was right in front of me seemed silly. but next time, I'm going to try Just Salad; based on their menu, they just seem more GF aware.
Great 24/7 market with an amazing deli and hot bar, salad bar, loads of fresh produce, and a huge amount of specialty items and GF grocery offerings. I got the grilled carrots from the hot bar, and it was amazing. Other ready-made basics like rice with veggies, roasted asparagus, sweet potatoes, all ready to go. This is the kind of place you and your friends/family could go to for a quick meal, regardless of who can or can't eat what. Plus, it was cheap - I got a container of roasted carrots, 1 pound of Brussels Sprouts, and a HUGE zucchini for about $3.30. This place was incredible, so many speciality items, so many fresh veg, such fresh deli options - AWESOME!
A few other places I came across that looked hopeful...next time!
Rice (rice-based dishes)
Rice to Riches (mix-n-match rice pudding - everything includes dairy and eggs, so it doesn't work for me - but everything looked GF, so if you tolerate eggs and dairy, go go go!)
Great resource for dining in NYC with dietary restrictions: Allergic Girl
There are many many many more restaurants in NYC with GF and allergy-friendly offerings, this is just scratching the surface. This link has a few additional offerings. Do some research, and see what else you can find!
- Cashew Cookie LaraBar (dates and cashews - that's it!)
- Enjoy Life Sunbutter Crunch Bars (these are a bit of a cheat, with both cane juice and xanthan gum...but I seem tolerate them and don't have any reactions, so in cases like this, they are useful)
- homemade Nut Free Super Food Trail Mix
- homemade Power Nuggets, my answer to Chunks of Energy (this recipe will be in my cookbook...stay tuned!)
- homemade energy bar of quinoa flakes, flax, sunflower seeds, and shredded carrot (I'm working on perfecting this recipe....)
- raw cashews
- rice cakes
- a few homemade muffins (packed them frozen, perfect for breakfasts!)
- dehydrated split pea soup mixture (mix with hot water, done!)
- UltraClear Plus protein powder and a small mason jar (put the powder in the jar, throw your bag, and just add water when you want it!)
- a big bag of me-friendly tea bags
- cornstarch-free wasabi powder: to make my own for spicy dressings/sauces at restaurants
- dulse flakes: adds flavor and nutrition on restaurant salads, veggies, etc
- a bag of baby carrots
- a bag of snow peas (came in handy on my unexpected flight delay!)
All in all, it was a great success. I loved New York. I need to go back in March for a follow up with my doctor, and hope I am feeling well enough at that time to do more site seeing. I feel my body crashing now from running at such a high velocity for 4 days, but it was worth every second.
I am working on a post about how to travel gluten free and allergy free, so stay tuned! In the meantime, enjoy a few photos from my trip. If you want to see more, check out my photostream on Flickr.

Swisslog Healthcare: Automation for medication and supply chain management
Intelligent automation concepts developed specifically for healthcare requirements allow more efficient work processes in hospitals. Individual solutions relieve healthcare staff of redundant and monotonous tasks that previously took them a great deal of time. This frees up valuable personnel resources that can be invested in the individual care of patients.
At the same time, healthcare automation eases the physical burdens on staff and reduces the risk of human error to a minimum – an essential factor in providing high-quality care.

Try this cool idea this winter for long-lasting color
When we moved into our new condo, there was a dead mountain ash tree in the backyard. I'd just come back from a visit to Chicago and I'd seen how the parks department there had painted dead trees, turning them into art. Inspired, I painted my own dead tree, and used it to hang wind chimes, lamps, and houseplants summering outdoors. The bright purple was a great accent color in the garden.>> read "A Painted 'Forest'" #Art #Colorful #Design #How to

Do you have a yard full of grass and a longing for fresh produce to feed your family? Why not install a kitchen garden? One that is easy to build and won't require much maintenance, where you can grow fresh veggies, small fruits, herbs, and maybe even some cut flowers.
Sound too good to be true? Follow these 5 simple steps and you will be growing in no time.
There was a time when I thought of water as a renewable resource. Deep down, I still want to believe this. Although our water supply is replenished (some years more than others), the distribution of water over my property varies. The gain doesn't always equal the loss though – some years we take more than nature gives.
Since I come from an area that receives an average of 44 inches of rain a year, you may be surprised to hear me touting waterwise garden design. Out West, this is a way of life. However, on the East Coast, we have experienced long periods of drought in recent years. If Raleigh's annual rainfall came as 1 inch every week, there would be little need for waterwise design. But it doesn't. Summers, in particular, can be hot and dry. It wasn't until we experienced the worst drought in 100 years, with outdoor watering restrictions and no major rain in sight, that I began to take note ...
Design tips for a beautiful garden at all levels
Each gardener, whether novice or experienced, begins a new garden full of fresh hopes and desires. Desires vary – one gardener may wish to grow fanciful flowers in a cutting garden; others may want a wildlife habitat with diverse plantings to feed birds, bees and butterflies. Another may want to grow a vegetable garden, with an added desire to make it as beautiful as it is functional.>> read "Short, Tall and In Between" #Advice #Design
Picture this: You are sitting by the fireplace in January and the stack of seed catalogs is next to you. You have a hot cup of cocoa and you are looking forward to digging into the catalogs. You have your Post-It Notes right there, too, because you are going to mark everything that you want to order and plant for the vegetable garden. You place all of your orders, and then all of sudden it's planting time and you can't quite figure out how you are going to fit all of those seeds (let alone the plants that you just picked up at the garden center) in your garden. Expanding the garden is not an option (at least that's what my husband keeps telling me every year but somehow it just gets bigger and bigger!).
Does this sound familiar? I used to be really bad at over purchasing seeds and plants. I figured that since I have room, it would be OK to just let the garden size creep another foot or two. Until this got out of control and I had an epiphany one summer a few years ago: A lot of the produce that I was planting was just going to waste. So I started planning my vegetable garden according to what we would consume ...
From plants to pathways, easy ways to handl tough sites
Many landscapes have at least some degree of slope. In certain situations, a slope can be a design asset, allowing you to create interesting features or place certain garden elements at eye level. But steep slopes can create mobility or erosion issues that sometimes require some type of landscaping solution. For walls higher than approximately 1 foot, UGA professor Paul Pugliese advises you seek the advice of a professional. But many slopes can be managed with simple, inexpensive approaches.>> read "Gardening on a Slope" #Design #Landscaping #Slopes
On a spring morning while visiting Magnolia Plantation and Gardens near Charleston, SC, I left the main pathways and walked onto a narrow trail that led among Spanish-moss draped magnolias and bald cypresses. The trail went past an open glade, wild in its tangle of wisteria vines and solitary azalea and camellia blossoms. It had an eerie and deserted look about it, and I was startled by a white figure standing in the far distance like a mirage. When I looked closer, I realized that it was a white marble statue of a woman. Suddenly this abandoned space came alive. It was inhabited by this lovely sculpture, and my eyes focused on the glistening figure standing evocatively among the tangled vegetation.>> read "Sculpture in the Garden" #Decorating #Design #Misc
Using texture for great garden theater
Thousands of opportunities to create real drama and beauty make designing a garden fun. But that can also be the rub: Things get overwhelming pretty quickly. A bit like staging a movie, how do you decide on the set and cast?

Japanese gardens have weathered the test of time.
Principles originating centuries ago still guide and inspire garden designers in search of harmony and beauty. Japanese gardens are often described as beautiful, simple, serene and harmonious. For the aspiring designer, intimidating also comes to mind. Some design principles are consistent across all design disciplines, while others seem new and challenging to a Western-minded gardener. Let's explore the Japanese garden and discuss a few concepts that make this approach so enduring.
Using natural materials for your landscaping
More and more gardeners and landscapers are heading "back to the land." In addition to self-sufficiency, less pesticide use, growing heirloom vegetable varieties, urban homesteading, hardscaping using natural materials is also becoming more popular. This provides a wealth of natural materials for landscaping and design work.>> read "Natural Hardscaping" #Design #Hardscaping #Natives
Fences can fill a number of needs in the garden: They can enclose a space and define it, they can keep the dogs in or the neighbor's cats out, they often tell the gardener where to stop planting. But they can also become part of the planting and design scheme itself. That is, they can support plants and allow their form to be seen in their best light. Of course, the typical cottage garden picket fence does a great job – but construction is not always easy or cheap. There is an alternative though – a wood and wire fence.>> read "How to Build a Living Fence" #Design #Hardscaping #How to
