Basement Renovation
Claiming space for living is more economical than adding space. This is a great example of how we recently claimed a long concrete storage level and transformed it into an inviting, useful multi-purpose living area. The challenges of the duct work in the ceiling worked to our advantage, creating opportunities for lighting and millwork, visually separating spaces. It's hard to believe that this space went from cement block and plastic containers to comfortable seating, kitchen, powder room, game table nook, storage, library and relaxation by the fire!

Does the floor of that oven have the conductivity you want?
Nope. But it might be one of the only options I have in regards to conductivity. My main concern is an oven that heats up in 90 minutes, which these refractory ones do. But none of them (FGM, Le Paynol, etc.) have the throat to make a NP vent. And the Modena is the only one with the correct oven opening shape.The other drawback to the Modena is the height of the dome is a bit too high. How high is the Acunto inside dome?John
What if you just cut it off at the brick facade (or just don't use if not attached), plug the integral vent, and built a NP vent and chimney over the mouth? I think you could do where you wouldn't know the difference from looking at it.

And they WON the Pre-Mundial even....shouldn't be forgotten when they are actually WINNING some of these tournaments.
And they WON the Pre-Mundial even....shouldn't be forgotten when they are actually WINNING some of these tournaments.
My guesses:
Group A:
USA, Canada, Netherlands and Panama (home field advantage) advance. I wouldn't be surprised if Taiwan, Puerto Rico or Japan makes it instead of Panama or the Netherlands. Only Greece would really shock me. Good lord, how old is Erik Pappas? Will they keep treading out their 2004 Olympic team forever?
Group B:
Cuba, Dominican Republic, Australia and Venezuela advance. Nicaragua, Italy and South Korea all have a chance to advance to me in my mind. Germany is the weakest team here and I could see them beating any of the above on a good day. No pushovers like Sweden (2005), Thailand (2007), South Africa (lots of times) or Britain (2009) have served in the past.
After going down a cumulative 21-0 in their first two games do you want to change your pick from Australia to another team?
I am surprised how bad Australia's done. You've got a few former major leaguers and some other guys who have played in the higher minors. I expect them to get going soon - a shutout loss to Cuba is no big deal, but ITALY??
Shut out again...this time by Korea.
Nederland is 4-0...I am one happy Dutchman!
Man, do I *HATE* the Yankees!!!!!!
Won 7-5 against the US today...now 5-0.
My sources have informed me that this is indeed the last World Cup. The World Baseball Classic will be the World Championship event, and in the off years, so in 2015 and 2019 they will hold the Premier 12 Tournament. The Premier 12 Tournament will consist of the top 12 teams from the prior World Baseball Classic. It is believed that the Premier Tournament will be run under similar rules as the World Cup, meaning no 40 man roster players and such..
I didnt know 12 year olds could be on 40 man rosters .
Wazzup with the USA? They look awfull losing to Dutch and canada unacaptable.
USA is playing terrible unless we can get on a roll were not sniffing the medal games. Also, Australia has been on a tear offensively, I personally would like to see them or the Dutch take the gold.
Australia is on a roll but they still need to lift a little in the next phase of the contest. Cuba is usually the team to beat because they take this competition very seriously and don't have to rely on MLB players for their strength. Is this being televised anywhere in USA?
"A hot dog at the ballgame beats roast beef at the Ritz." ~Humphrey Bogart
No matter how good you are, you're going to lose one-third of your games. No matter how bad you are you're going to win one-third of your games. It's the other third that makes the difference. ~Tommy Lasorda

Dr. Seuss' Lorax may "speak for the trees," but there are plenty of other environmental issues with authors and literary characters on their side, as well.
The world's top authors and illustrators who emphasize environmental stewardship in books for children and young adults recently gathered at Salisbury University during the Newton Marasco Foundation's Green Earth Book Awards ceremony, held in connection with SU's annual Children's Literature Festival. The authors and illustrators, including 2008 winners Jean Davies Okimoto, Jeremiah Trammell, O.R. Melling, Laurie David and Cambria Gordon, signed books for SU students, faculty and local children during a festive environmental community fair leading up to the awards presentation.
Authors and illustrators received their awards before a full house which included keynote speaker Phillip Hoose, author of the acclaimed children's book Hey, Little Ant. Award winners receive $2,500 plus $500 for the environmental organization of their choice. This year's recipients included Polar Bears International, Ireland's Golden Eagle Reintroduction Project and stopglobalwarming.org.
"Through our partnership with SU and the Children's Literature Festival, we are able to publicly showcase and honor the writers and illustrators whose books have earned the national Green Earth Book Award for their promotion of environmental awareness and stewardship for young people," said Dr. Laura Marasco of SU's Seidel School of Education and Professional Studies and Newton Marasco's board of directors. "The respect and care for the earth are responsibilities for all of us on this planet."
Since 2005, the Newton Marasco Foundation has honored nine "Green Earth" books, awarding $22,500 to 29 authors and contributing $4,500 to environmental charities in the authors' names.

The latest results from the Financial Trust Index survey are in, and they aren't kind to top corporate managers. Looking back to last fall, when JP Morgan reached a watershed $13 billion agreement with the Justice Department, and a separate $4.5 billion settlement with institutional investors, it seems Americans think the bank's top managers did not pay dearly enough to end the several investigations and lawsuits brought against it in the wake of the financial crisis.
A full 70 percent of respondents said they thought it was unfair that JP Morgan managers would not have to give back any compensation for their mistakes, and 48 percent said the largest US bank should have paid more in penalties and settlements.
Figure 2: Management Compensation
Do you feel it is fair that managers will not have to give back any compensation for their mistakes?
The report, coauthored jointly by Chicago Booth's Luigi Zingales and Northwestern Kellogg's Paola Sapienza, has tracked trust across key financial institutions for the last five years. Around the same time as JP Morgan reached those settlements, Hal Weitzman sat down with Zingales and Chicago Booth's Steven Neil Kaplan on an episode of our Big Question video series to discuss executive pay and income inequality. You can watch that here and join the conversation on Twitter using #BoothBigQ.

The first movement is loosely based on the type of da capo form associated with sonatas. But here there is also an overall sense of dramatic intensification during the course of the movement, and the return of the opening section is modified with new gestures and some unexpected turns of event. The two cadential chords constituting the second movement ('Adagio') certainly do not refer to a piece that has since been lost since they come on the middle of a page in the presentation autograph. Perhaps, given the complexity and intensity of the movements on either side, they should be played precisely as they stand, as if the slow movement has simply vaporised. Or perhaps, in the manner of Handel's later organ concertos, they signify a solo improvisation. There is certainly a sense throughout the collection that Bach played on the expectations and conventions of concerto writing, and here is an opportunity to render this movement in a number of different ways.
The third movement is, unusually for Bach's finales, a piece in binary form with each of the two halves repeated. Here there is a definite element of virtuosity, but transferred from the customary soloist to the entire ensemble. Never again in the history of the concerto has there been such a piece that maintains the dazzle of the concerto idiom without profiling a single soloist.

UnCabaret is the groundbreaking show that has been changing comedy since 1988. It's the show that Entertainment Weekly calls "Liberating", Los Angeles Magazine calls "Legendary", The New York Times calls "Seminal", LA Weekly calls "The Mother Show of alternative comedy".
UnCabaret is a hot bed of personal comedic storytelling, fostering the careers of iconoclastic comedy stars like Kathy Griffin, Julia Sweeney, Margaret Cho, Greg Behrendt, Laura Kightlinger, Mike McDonald, Bob Odenkirk, David Cross, Janeane Garofalo, Andy Kindler, Jeff Garlin, Andy Dick, Dana Gould, Patton Oswalt, Scott Thompson and Taylor Negron. UnCabaret is where award winning comedy writers like Judd Apatow, John Riggi, Michael Patrick King and Larry Charles have come to connect directly with audiences. Where luminaries like Jon Stewart, Sarah Silverman, Roseanne Barr, Sandra Bernhard, Carrie Fisher and Bill Maher have popped in to try their hand at this comedy free styling.
After a bit of a breather, UnCabaret is back!
The new UnCabaret is has found a perfect new home at the intimate, chic, luxurious and yet somehow homey, First & Hope. The showroom is intimate, chic and elegant. We've added more deeply talented performers - of both the comedic and musical variety. Among them Rob Delaney, Tig Notaro, Natasha Leggero, Jill Sobule, Dweezil Zappa, Drew Droege, Sam Pancake, Jen Kirkman, Garfunkel and Oates, Casey Wilson, Jennifer Colidge, Moshe Kasher, Miss Coco Peru, Alec Mapa, Del Shores, Rebecca Corry, Cheri Oteri, Allee Willis, Jane Adams, Eddie Pepitone, Marc Maron, Rae Dawn Chong, Pete Holmes, Rory Scovel, Xander Smith, Ruby Freidman, Timor and The Dime Museum and Kelly Mantle.
One other change in the new UnCabaret, Mitch Kaplan has come on board as producer and musical director. Mitch is an award-winning singer, songwriter and pianist and has worked as a producer, songwriter, and musical director with such iconic luminaries as Sandra Bernhard, Ana Gasteyer and Cady Huffman. His songs have been recorded by artists such as Chaka Khan, Thelma Houston, Sister Sledge and Martika. Mitch and Beth began working together on music for "100% Happy 88% of the Time" and are excited about expanding their mix of comedy and music into UnCabaret.
Over its 25 year history, UnCabaret has been produced for Amazon Instant Video, as a Comedy Central Special, a daily radio show on Comedy World Radio, a podcast on audible.com and three CD's. In Los Angeles the show has had extended runs at Luna Park, Knitting Factory, HBO Workspace, MBar and The Skirball Cultural Center as well as being presented by the HBO Comedy Arts Festival, The Getty Center, Lollapalooza, and colleges and theaters nationally. UnCabaret birthed offshoot shows Say The Word and The Other Network, and is the subject of a documentary in the making by Little Miss Sunshine directors Jonathan Dayton and Valerie Faris.

PRINCESS ANNE, MD-(April 23, 2012) The work of a half dozen fine arts students graduating in May from the University of Maryland Eastern Shore are featured in an exhibit, "Starving Artists?" The art show is on display in the Mosely Gallery through a closing reception May 17 from 4-6 p.m.
Featured artists include Cynthia Anais, design illustration; Michael Carmean, sequential (comic book) art; Alicia Critchfield, traditional and digital photography; Keith Elder, sequential art; Chris Perkins, traditional and digital illustrations; and Lamar Waul, photography.
"I have seen the development of each of these dedicated student artists," said Christopher Harrington, interim chair, UMES Department of Fine Arts. "The show is unified and it was a slightly terrifying thrill to see them paint a group mural on the entire wall of the gallery. It was good to see such a collaborative effort."
Anais, a native of Martinique in the French Caribbean, describes her work as "vivid and colorful" much like her island home. "My creations are the expression of my life experiences, my beliefs and my culture," she said. Growing up, she said, she would use random material found from objects and vegetation and combine them into her "creations." Today she enjoys "playing with different types of paint and pencils, assembling diverse materials and using amazing digital effects."
Locals Mike Carmean of Snow Hill and Alicia Critchfield of Westover, using different mediums, both see themselves as realists exploring everyday life and its challenges. Carmean said, "I not only give my characters lines, colors and environments—I give them life. It is not enough to create (comic book) characters in the nature of good and evil, you have to take a piece of yourself and breathe life into them." Critchfield said the most important aspect of her photography "lies not with the actual subject, but the message: be bold, be different, be yourself and above all else, believe in yourself." Most of her work is unplanned, she said. "Much like life itself, it just happens."
Also adding their creative talents to the exhibit are: Elder of Upper Marlboro, Md.; Perkins of Northwest, D.C.; and Waul from St. Leonard, Md. Elder describes himself as being among "a new generation of (comic book) artists." Creating extreme "over the top" animated action sequences with narrative emotion is his niche. "I do gesture drawings of dynamic poses to capture the emotion I want the character to express," he said.
Perkins likes taking something from the real world and transforming it into a work of art. "It is as though I'm giving objects that many people consider ordinary a chance to show that they have an esthetic appeal," he said. Perkins enjoys working digitally, because it "ushers in an array of creative features at my fingertips."
Lighting his subjects from above and on the right side gives Waul's photography a dramatic effect. "If anybody knows me, they know I am dramatic at times," he said. Waul strives to be different and push the limits, he said. "I have an open mind to new ideas, while staying true to my beliefs and myself."
Harrington said, "I have no doubt that they (the student artists) will be equally successful after graduation."
The Mosely Gallery is free and open to the public weekdays from 9 a.m.-5 p.m. Call 410-651-7770 for more information.

In short: Flat/undulating? YEAH RIGHT!!In full: Blimey, tough course. And I live in Sheffield!!!! Few problems with the toilets at the start and the mile markers weren't very accurate but they were minor things.

Lately Ive noticed some concerns about Pauls current vocacrange. For sure he can t reach all the notes the way he used to and the voice sometimes sound like a less flexible instrument than before. Judging from clips from tour his voice is far from shot-he still is a great singer with a more limited range-something natural concerning the mans age.
Question is when macca reached his peak as a vocalist. He did many wonderful vocals with the Beatles but personally I think mid and late seventies were his absolutely peak as a singer. During that period he still had the flexibility and range as with the fab four but added a maturity and awareness that makes some of his singing from this period absolutely fantastic.
WOA for me is the absolutely proof of this. Maybe I'm amazed, Long and winding road and Beware my love some good examples. I doubt if Pauls ever cut some better vocals than these and some other tracks from this period.. Maybe some stuff from Run devil run reach this level - maybe-
What s your opinion about Pauls best vocal performances

I have recently had an Anthem SL installed in a parlour sized steel string guitar. The install was done by the dealer that I purchased the Anthem from. I have discovered that the installer glued the undersaddle pickup and the saddle into the bridge slot. Has anyone ever heard of this being done. In my opinion it has dramatically changed the sound of the guitar which was very balanced to begin with and is now a 10 on treble and a 4 on midrange and base. Before I take it back to be redone I just want to make sure that I'm not missing something here.
Any input would be greatly appreciated as I spent may months (and guitars) finding this particular one which now has a sound that is entirely different and not particularly pleasant.
Thanks Derek

Chicken Lettuce Wraps
Recipe courtesy of Daniel Green
- 6 large dried Chinese mushrooms
- Drizzle of extra-virgin olive oil
- 1/2 large onion, peeled and finely chopped
- 2 pounds lean ground chicken
- 3 tablespoons mirin or white wine
- 1 tablespoon sesame oil
- 1 tablespoon sesame seeds
- 1 tablespoon oyster sauce
- 1 tablespoon light soy sauce
- One 8-ounce can water chestnuts, chopped
- 1 clove garlic, peeled and crushed
- 6 spring onions (scallions), chopped
- 2 to 3 tablespoons plum sauce
- 2 to 3 heads radicchio, leaves separated
Soak the Chinese mushrooms in hot water until soft, about 5 minutes. Then finely chop.
Heat the olive oil in a large nonstick pan and cook the onion for a few minutes. Add the mushrooms and cook for another 2 minutes. Add the ground chicken and cook for 4 to 6 minutes, mixing the meat with the other ingredients as it cooks, so it breaks up into little pieces. Add the mirin or wine followed by the sesame oil, sesame seeds, oyster sauce, soy sauce, water chestnuts and garlic. Cook for a few minutes and let the mixture caramelize. Add the spring onions and remove from the heat. Spread a bit of plum sauce on the inside of each radicchio leaf. Then top with a spoonful of the chicken mixture.

Turns out that many argued against tolerance in the community, so let's revisit poly policing other people's right to self-identify
1:00 Announcements and Host Chat
Poly movie review: Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid
7:30 Topic: It's not about you, or everyone is doing poly wrong redux
A number of listeners commented and wrote in to argue that sure, tolerance is great—until you disagree with someone else's definition of poly or self identity. So we brought in the big guns to reiterate the point: LustyGuy! Y'all wrote in with quite a few objections and instances in which you REALLY wanted to dispute someone else's self-identity, including:
- But Minx, _____ isn't the RIGHT definition of poly
- But Minx, if we don't have one common definition of poly, we can't communicate
- But Minx, the cheaters who call themselves poly hurt our cause
- But Minx, the cheaters who call themselves poly insult my hard-won ethical relationship
31:15 Happy Poly Moment

Receive unique offers and information on specialist programs, workshops, free webinars and more.
Empowering your clients to make long-term behavior change requires much more than just designing an exercise program. In this course, you'll explore how to help them set meaningful, valuable goals by asking questions to determine whether they have a personal stake in their accomplishments. You'll also review theories on behavior change and the principles of lifestyle modification, as well as strategies to implement them in relation to physical activity and weight management. Understanding self-monitoring and relapse prevention techniques for health enhancement will help you improve client adherence.
You will learn:
I know too many trainers that should be aware of this information and are not. This info is vital to a clients success.
Taking the test after reading the chapters is good. No time wasted.
Great instruction, especially for new coaches!
This course improved my knowledge about how to determine what they truly needs in order to address their problem areas and how to set a powerful plan and implement them.
As a current student obtaining my bachelors in health and wellness, this is CEC course enhanced the knowledge I learned. Behavior modifications are essential in changing any lifestyle.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you Latasha for the feedback! We are happy to hear that you found this course useful. We have other behavior change courses you may be interested in as well. You can check them out here: https://www.acefitness.org/continuing-education/courses/Behavior%20Change.
The quiz was from the health coach book and not from the information in the current course workbook
Overall, this was a great overview course. I would recommend it to fellow HC.
This class had nothing to do with behavior modification as it pertains to nutrition. Good thing I already understand nutrition at a graduate level. You guys are seriously shorting the individuals that do not know much about nutrition. This test and class was all about your antiquated training methods and a complete waste of money and an utter disappointment!
This course was very pertinent to issues my clients are dealing with.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you Jenni for your feedback! We are glad you will be able to use the strategies from this course with your clients.
Great course!
Excellent course
Already learned this information in the certification exam.
Great Information :)
Only thing that would make it better would be a bit of video interaction perhaps for the role playing segments.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you Rebecca for your feedback! We will take your suggestion into consideration!
The Lifestyle and Behavior Modification lesson was extremely helpful and good complement to my personal trainer certification.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you Steven for your response! We are happy to hear you found the information in this course informative and useful!
really nteresting subje t
Solid review of the material plus learned new information and strategies.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you for your feedback! We are happy to hear it was educational for you.
This was an intriguing, easy to follow course. I am excited to be able to apply some of the concepts I learned to real life and the clients I currently have.
ACER RESPONSE: Thank you for your feedback! We are glad you will be able to use the information presented in your career.
Very useful and definitely motivating! Strongly recommend it!
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you for the great feedback!
Great way to find out how to approach people from a different view other than your own.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you for the great feedback on this course!
This is good information presented well.
I really enjoyed the content. I didn't want to stop reading because it was very interesting to me and pertains to several clients I am working with now!
ACE RESPONSE: Great! Have fun putting the information into action!
Useful for clients, friends and family.
There were many questions on the test not covered in the course. Also a few trick questions. For example: "For a previously sedimentary individual, all of the following are health-related benefits of starting an exercise program EXCEPT A) Improved muscle hypertrophy, B) Reduced risk of developing type 2 diabetes, C) Improved blood-lipid profile, D) Reduced risk of cardiovascular disease." All of these are health-related benefits of starting an exercise program. Seems like a trick question and should either be taken out or changed.
ACE RESPONSE: Thank you for your feedback on this course, however, the question you refer to is not a question associated with this quiz. Please contact the Educational Services department, if you feel this is an error. 1-800-825-3636. Thank you.
I have a graduate degree in clinical psychology and utilize cognitive-behavioral therapy on a routine basis. When I took the quiz, I struggled with the question about "cognitive restructuring" because the "correct" answer contradicted the text. The preferred answer indicated the health coach helps the client change their feelings and their behaviors, when actually the focus in on cognitions (thoughts) that lead to the feelings then behaviors. This was the only question I missed out of the 25....

Ted Cruz shows leadership
To the editor:
Texas Senator Ted Cruz recently delivered an address at the Heritage Foundation on the topic of America's involvement in Syria's civil war. His clear thinking on the subject stood in stark contrast to the muddled international policy that is coming out of the Obama administration and its State Department.
Cruz said that America's foreign policy needs to focus on three imperatives: Do what is in America's national best interest, speak with moral clarity, and always fight to win.
Applying these principles to Syria, the Senator pointed out that America's national best interest is not served if we weaken Syria's brutal dictator to the point where the rebels, many of whom are associated with Al-Qaeda, take control of the country's supply of chemical weapons. If Al-Qaeda gains control of chemical weapons, they will surely use them against American citizens and our political allies. So direct military involvement is out.
However, there is much that can be done diplomatically that does serve America's national interest. We can tell Iraq to stop allowing Iran to use their air space for flights to Syria that re-supply the Assad regime in Syria. Otherwise, we will end all financial aid to Iraq.
At the United Nations, we can force a vote condemning the use of chemical weapons in Syria. If Russia and China vote no, as they surely would, we respond by announcing that the U.S. has decided that we will now reverse some policy decisions made earlier in this administration. Our response to Russia's vote will be that we will resume building the missile defense system in Eastern Europe. Our response to China will be to sell Taiwan the F16 fighters that they had requested.
The current administration has said that it wants to engage in an "unbelievably small" military action to "send a message" in support of international norms. Our young men and women do not sign up to engage in unbelievably small engagements in support of international norms. They sign up to fight for America, to kill our enemies, and to keep America and her allies safe.
This Ted Cruz is a real leader who has clear understanding of America's role in the world. I'm hoping more and more Americans sit up and start listening to what he has to say.

When it comes to wedding gigs, sometimes I have to get up super early to make sure the bride is ready in time. Mind you, I'm not an early morning person, but you gotta do what you gotta do. I always make sure to put on some makeup so that I look neat and professional. When I don't have a lot of time to be messing with eyeshadows and a lot of products, I go for a quick pin-up look.
Here I'm wearing liner, lashes, my base, and red lipstick. I like the L'Oreal Infallible lip color in beyonce. It really does last all day. Just make sure to exfoliate before hand or you might experience some flaking.
Before shot of the bride...
After...I didn't get a chance to get a quick close-up picture but you can still see the makeup. For this look, we added a little bit more purple than we did for the trial to make sure she had a pop of color.
I love when I get a shot with my brides...she looked absolutely beautiful.
I also used my temptu dura airbrush makeup to cover up 3 tattoos on the bride and one on the bridesmaid to the right...that stuff comes in handy. It's alcohol based, does not transfer onto clothes, and can last several days into the honeymoon.
Getting ready shots.
Here's a shot of my traincase. I was excited because I had a whole empty table to work on. The more surface area to work on, the better!
I also did the mom's makeup. Sometimes it's challenging to work on mothers of the bride because they're not used to seeing themselves made up. The key is to go for something age appropriate, make sure to really listen to what they want, and combine it with your expert opinion on what you know will look great on the client.
For the mom, I worked on evening out her skin tone, defining her brows, and making her look fresh and polished. A lot of my mommy clients seem to love the darker berry lip so I always make sure to pack it in my kit. For the eyes, even though she didn't think she needed it, I added some very subtle lashes which makes really helps to lift the eyes and enhance them. For the shadow, I went for something subtle...satin taupe and some browns.
That's all for now! I hope you all enjoy my wedding posts. I try to stick in tips for those of us who do bridal work and also for those of us who might want to do makeup for our own weddings, or help out a friend. If you have any bridal makeup trips of your own, please feel free to leave them in the comments below.
I have more pictures from other weddings coming up, stay tuned!

Exercising with Crohn's disease
I had a really bad flare up of my Crohn's a few years ago where my ankles swelled up so much that I couldn't walk for almost a month. Crohn's disease effects more than just the intestines, it can also affect the skin, joints, mouth, and throat. In some people it can also affect the eyes. Since this flare up, I stopped doing high impact exercise for fear that my joints would swell back up. They were very touchy for a long time. Recently, I had my yearly bone scan performed and found out that my bones actually got worse even though I was taking the bone strengthening medicine Boniva and lots of Calcium supplements (with Vitamin D) . I started taking this dance class before I had my bone scan but am happy that I started it because moving your body around in any way helps the bones.
There are many reasons why exercise is good for you and I am certain that you have heard it all before. Therefore, I will try not to tell you the reasons why everyone else says that exercise is good for you and only tell you the reasons why I like to exercise. The reason that I like to exercise is because it is my way of fighting back. I feel in control and I feel like I am doing something to make it harder for the disease to take hold of me. I exercise to put it back in its place and kick its butt. To kick its butt, I have to be the healthiest me that I can be and that means that my body, mind and soul have to be in good shape. Today we will focus on our bodies.
When you exercise, your body excretes endorphins which are chemicals that make you feel good and help relieve pain. These are very powerful fighters against depression that comes from being on high doses of steroids and being ill frequently. I don't know if there is any proof to this, but I believe that muscles help make the immune system stronger – not just the body. I probably believe this because when I have more muscles it's usually when I am healthy. Of course when I get sick my muscles start to deteriorate and I feel weak. I don't know if one has anything to do with the other, or if I just associate health and strong body because my body is never strong when I get really sick. So, I try to keep my muscles strong all the time, even when I am sick because, in my mind, doing so will help me get better faster. You are probably thinking that I am crazy about now, and you are probably right. But I think of myself as a fighter and I will use whatever methods I can to fight back against my Crohn's disease and in my mind exercise is part of my heavy artillery.
I have a few toning exercises that I do daily whether I'm healthy or sick. I have even done them in the hospital (once I am able to stand up on my own) and I have to be really sick or have been ordered by a doctor to lie in bed to not do them. There are only two that I always do: calf raises and squats. The amount of each exercise that I do depends on how I am feeling at the time. Even if it is as little as a couple each I feel like I'm making some headway against Crohn's disease. I sort of mentally tell myself, "Take that Crohn's disease!" after finishing a set of squats or calf raises. I'm also trying to incorporate more arm exercises into my daily routine because I know they are important as well. The only problem here is that I don't like to be sore in my arms. I don't do calf raises on stairs, I just do them on a flat surface and raise up on the ball of my foot and go back down. After a while, you will feel your calf muscles and your butt muscles. I like the feeling of being sore because I know that means that I am fighting back and getting strong.
As I start to get healthier, I add more exercises to my daily routine. I try to do leg lifts – to the front, back and sides – and butt crunches (gotta keep those butt muscles firm ;-). I will do abdominals as my intestines allow. I throw exercise into my daily routine by doing some squats every time I wash my hands after using the toilette. I do calf raises while brushing my teeth and whenever I have to stand in line or am listening to a boring telecom at work. I do leg lifts while fixing my hair and in between putting on make up. Throughout the day I can potentially do a lot of squats, especially if it is a bad intestine day, but I also have to pay attention to not putting too much stress on my joints.
It is much easier to do toning exercise than to do a big cardio workout, but both are important. The cardio workouts I do are in short spurts when I am not feeling well enough to do a full workout. I believe that you can do small spurts of exercise and still get the same effect. I believe that anything that you can do for any amount of time is good because at least you are doing something and not nothing! Doing nothing makes me depressed; I am a woman of action. Actually, I have only recently started back doing cardio exercise after a very long time. The dance class that I joined is an adult group of mothers who take the class because their child takes a dance class at the facility. I am the only one whose daughter does not take a dance class there. I tried to get her to take one, but she already has a lot of activities on her plate and felt it would be too much. I am glad that she is already mature enough to know her limits. It has been wonderful taking the class and is the highlight of my week. I signed up for the class because I love to dance and I am tired of being a prisoner to my body. And, I am feeling better and better and really look forward to this class at the end of each week. We are actually doing a show this weekend and I am very excited because this is the healthiest that I have been in about six years and I am ready to shine!
Now, get up and give me ten (just kidding)! But, I hope that you do try to move your body around as much as you can.

Los Alamos National Laboratory
Laboratory's role in Cold War nuclear weapons testing program focus of next 70th anniversary lecture
- Steve Sandoval
- Communications Office
- (505) 665-9206
Sept. 11 at Bradbury Science Museum
LOS ALAMOS, N.M., Sept. 5, 2013—Los Alamos National Laboratory's role in the development of nuclear weapons during the Cold War period of 1947 to 1991 will be discussed by Byron Ristvet of the Defense Threat Reduction Agency at 5:30 p.m., Sept. 11 at the Laboratory's Bradbury Science Museum. The talk is part of the Laboratory's 70th anniversary lecture series.
"Los Alamos National Laboratory's role in conjunction with the Department of Defense in meeting this challenge with new nuclear weapon designs was an amazingly complex and intellectual endeavor," said Ristvet.
Ristvet also will talk about the need for development of nuclear weapons from the target design-testing-stockpile sequence, and emphasize the importance of nuclear weapons testing toward ensuring that U.S. nuclear weapons systems will be reliable and provide for the defense of the nation.
Ristvet is a senior subject matter expert to the Defense Threat Reduction Agency's Research and Development Directorate in the areas of nuclear and conventional weapons effect and testing, hard and deeply-buried target characterization and defeat, counterterrorism, cooperative threat reduction, knowledge preservation and nuclear test readiness. He has served in a number of nuclear weapons related positions, including the Defense Nuclear Weapons School, as an International Atomic Energy Agency technical advisor, and as an instructor/mentor in several nuclear weapons training programs, including at Sandia National Laboratories.
About the 70th anniversary lecture series
Los Alamos National Laboratory celebrates 70 years of service to the nation in 2013. This free lecture series is part of a number of activities planed to mark the anniversary.
Mensa, an internationally recognized high-IQ society, named the Bradbury Science museum as one of the top 10 "Favorite Science Museums."
All events at the Bradbury Science Museum are free and open to the public. Bradbury Science Museum is located at 1350 Central Ave., in downtown Los Alamos. Museum hours are 10 a.m. to 5 p.m., Tuesday through Saturday and 1 to 5 p.m., Sunday and Monday.
About Los Alamos National Laboratory
Los Alamos National Laboratory, a multidisciplinary research institution engaged in strategic science on behalf of national security, is operated by Los Alamos National Security, LLC, a team composed of Bechtel National, the University of California, BWXT Government Group, and URS, an AECOM company, for the Department of Energy's National Nuclear Security Administration.
Los Alamos enhances national security by ensuring the safety and reliability of the U.S. nuclear stockpile, developing technologies to reduce threats from weapons of mass destruction, and solving problems related to energy, environment, infrastructure, health, and global security concerns.

Topic: Rails as a friend for PHP prgorammers - walking in the Rails
People are tired to differentiate from rails framework and PHP. But literally, PHP is not a framework rather its a scripting language like asp or ruby, though there are specific differences between ruby and php. Few days back I felt something goog for PHP programmers, that those who are interested to work in rails framework. I figured a guidline for them that make them confident about, "Why PHP programmers should accept RAILS Framework" or something like that.
I wrote an article over this naming "walking in the rails" and just want to share the summary of that to you folks here.
Sometimes we need to decide which tool we should choose for a particular project, the key facts we need to think are as follows:
-Total size of the application: significantly the UI of the application, large application are easier in rails
-Total size of the dev team: small team can build a large project in rails
-Team Quality (Entry Barrier): Entry barrier for PHP is lower than with Rails
-Scalability: Changes are pretty cool in rails
-Expected initial traffic: High volume applications are easier in PHP
Few More Exciting Things that could let you to pick rails:
-Migration: Excellent migration capability
-Scaffolding: It is most coolest part in rails
-RESTFull Rails: It has automated RESTFull architecture with scaffolding from Rails 2.x.x
-Localization & Internalization: it has
-Helpers & Plugins: good collection of latest web technologies.
Rails includes features that help in increasing developer productivity. Some of the main features include the followings:
* MVC architecture
* Database Access Library
* Database Relationships
* Libraries for common tasks
* AJAX Library
* Convention over configuration
* Customized URL
* Lines of code
* RESTFull Rails
* Testing
* Debugging
* Components
I tried to figure out what php frameworks can not do while a ruby framework-rails can do. I turned into a wise decision finally, that

Topic: RoR Forum Software - Opinion
Have you guys seen Opinion?
It needs a little work, but is pretty nice. The forums at Shopify run Opinion and it works really well.
It's lacking a few features but maybe just because they chose not to use them?? Not sure. Still, much further in development than anything else I've seen.

Share a Reflection
Krista Tippet talked about the topic of preserving manuscripts. Throughout the hour, she interviewed with three different people, the first of whom was Father Stewart. Father Stewart is the executive director at Hill museum of Manuscript Library.
To begin, a manuscript is described as a piece of writing that is hand written. It is a document that is original and historical. Manuscripts can really be seen as artifacts in that they are one of a kind. When reading a manuscript, you are really able to get a sense of when that historical period. During the interview, Ms. Tippet and Fr. Stewart talked about how manuscripts allow you to see the binding, the ink in writing, and the side notes left by its readers. They gave an example of a manuscript of Psalms, in which they could see the edges were somewhat fringed as though it was left by a campfire, and said that it even smelled of campfire.
I think that this example really shows how different of an experience you can actually get out of reading an actual manuscript versus a printed copy. Mr. Haile, the second interviewee on the broadcast said that "I have a problem in living which century I live. When I read those manuscripts, I'm taken away there. Sometimes I'm totally taken with them." Mr. Haile is sharing how when he reads a manuscript, he get a real feel for the exact time in which it was written, which I think can allow for a whole different meaning and appreciation for reading it.
One of the current problems with manuscripts is that they are valuable, and poor people in Ethiopia (which is the last place that used manuscripts) will take manuscripts from churches or monasteries to sell them for money. When a manuscript is taken like this, often times, that piece of history is gone forever. Once gone, they are often resold for larger amounts of money, and are sometime broken up.
When listen to this broadcast, it really made me think about how important it is to have original manuscripts. If we did not have manuscripts of anything that was written in the Bible, it would be really hard to get a good idea of when, where, and why it was written. I think that this is the importance of having original manuscripts. If you have a piece of original writing, it allows you to get a more complete understanding of it – when it was written, where it was written (in terms of language), and a feel for the actual time period that it was written in. I think that this broadcast really gave me a greater appreciation for original pieces of writing, especially for manuscripts.
Your interview of May 6th brings to mind Shakespeare's sonnet LXV: Since brass, nor stone, nor earth, nor boundless sea, But sad mortality o'er-sways their power, How with this rage shall beauty hold a plea, Whose action is no stronger than a flower? O, how shall summer's honey breth hold out Against the wreckful siege of battering days, When rocks impregnable are not so stout, Nor gates of steel so strong, but Time decays? O fearful meditation! where, alack, Shall Time's best jewel from Time's chest lie hid? Or what strong hand can hold his swift foot back? Or who his spoil of beauty can forbid? O, none, unless this miracle have might, That, in black ink my love may still shine bright. Drew Hanna
Walking through the MSP airport this morning, I noticed advertisements for the Dead Sea Scroll exhibit at the Science Museum. I had just listened to the SOF podcast on Preserving Words and Worlds a Few days ago. I'm wondering how museum curators of religious artifacts interpret, or navigate the distance between very academic topics and the knowledge base of the general public--I suppose a more general question is, how is a balance achieved between rigorous science and theology and popular religious consumption?

In short: amazingIn full: Fantastic race, great support, varied terrain to make it interesting. Shame about the grumpy first man over the line, definitely not in the spirit of sport, running and the Stockport 10.Date of review: December 8, 2013
In short: all of tonys races are worth doing.In full: see some of you at the next oneDate of review: January 2, 2013
In short: 1000 people entered, how many more wanted to run no one knows.In full: If you like road races then this has to be on everyones list, it has everything besides a flat boring route, dull uninterested marshalls and the expense of a great north run.Date of review: December 10, 2012
In short: with all that rain should have been a wash out, but mosr certainly was notIn full: Just a great way to spend a morning, some great stories of the challenge. The only downside the water station was stolen but the marshalls and nearby catteryy/kennels did wonders to give everyone who wanted a drink.Will be back next year.Date of review: December 11, 2011
In short: Keep on coming backIn full: Excellent race for anyone who likes a race which is anything but dull, a few hills for interest, great marshalls and a biscuit for the dog in the goodie bag.Shame on those who did not run it,you missed a great dayDate of review: December 12, 2010
In short: Great race, well organised with a big splash to finish.In full: Althogh I'm not a fast runner I enjoyed this race, excellent views and well marshalled. Bit of a shock at the end but good fun. Wished I could have finished earlier so that I could have watched others do the river crossing.Date of review: June 29, 2008
In short: Excellent value, marshalls very supportive, great hatIn full: Well organised race, with no chance of getting lost. The marshalls were very encouraging. Excellent goodie bag and I love the hat. Congratulations to the organiser.Date of review: December 10, 2007
In short: much better than expectedIn full: This one is about pacing and not going fast at the start or the last hill will be hard. But nice compact course, saw friends repeatedly running and cheering, which was nice. On a normal summers evening would be bit drier.Date of review: July 5, 2007
In short: it did not rain as forecast, sunshine and great fells, superb.In full: After the depressing London marathon scenery, this was brilliant to look up as the hills got worse,and realise you are in a beautiful part of the world. The hills might be tough up, but the downs are wonderful some of the best descents ever.Date of review: June 3, 2007
In short: Nice change form tarmac halfs.In full: Enjoyable for the variety, but little tst who is patrols Saltaire suggests better marshalling as you come of the canal, tourists are not that considerate, and there were no warning signs for the stupid.I can't say there was a good part of the course, I enjoyed it all. The start, Esholt (what a big sewage works), the canal, the hill, the boggy top and the final hill to the finish, all have things to recommend and remember it.Date of review: April 2, 2007
