Family: Bufonidae, Toads view all from this family
Description Plump. Grayish/brown to olive. Green warts. Vocal sac covered by skin flap.
Dimensions 5.1-9.2cm. (2-3 5/8")
Warning Toads have enlarged glands (called the paratoid glands) on the side of the neck, one behind each eye. These glands secrete a viscous white poison that gets smeared in the mouth of any would-be predator, inflaming the mouth and throat and causing nausea, irregular heart beat, and, in extreme cases, death. Toads pose a danger to pets, which may pounce on and bite them. Humans should take care to wash their hands after handling a toad, and to avoid touching the mouth or eyes until having done so.
Voice Trill. High-pitched.
Breeding April-September. After rainfall in temporary pools, ditches and waterholes.
Habitat Woodland, prairie grassland.
Range Texas. Also Oklahoma, New Mexico into Mexico.
Discussion Nocturnal. Burrows underground. Flattens against the ground when threatened.

The painting is registered with certainty in 1644 in the collection of Cardinal Antonio Barberini (Aronberg Lavin 1975, p. 68). In the 1671 inventory, it was attributed to Annibale Carracci, and in 1812 it passed to the Colonna di Sciarra branch of the Barberini family as a work by Bartolomeo Schedoni. In 1911, Voss restored it definitively to Guercino.
Basing his study on the same depiction of the two shepherds in the painting of Apollo and Marsyas (Florence, Palazzo Pitti), commissioned in c. 1618 by Cardinal Alessandro Ludovisi, Denis Mahon dated the Rome work to the same year (Mahon 1968,I, pp. 69–72 and 1991, p. 94), suggesting a period immediately after the painter's stay in Venice, as described by Malvasia. Here he would have seen paintings with moralising themes in a natural context, which were popular on the market and especially linked to the activities of Domenico Fetti. It is also quite possible that the work entered the Barberini collection quite early, in about the summer of 1620 (Vivian 1971, p. 22), after it had been bought by Maffeo Barberini, an amateur poet who was to become Pope Urban VIII and who would certainly have appreciated the elegiac tone of the inscription. The dating is agreed upon by Salerno (1988, p. 126),while it is given as somewhat later, 1621–22, by Wild (1980, p. 60) and 1620–23 by Panofsky (1962, pp. 294–95).
Confirmed by the fact that the painting is the same size as the one in Palazzo Barberini, and by the detail of the shepherds witnessing the torment in Apollo and Marsyas in Florence, Mahon suggested that the painting in Rome was not originally planned as we see it today, but that it was a study or a trial which only later became the subject in itself, with the inclusion of the skull and the motto which ensured it such lasting success. X-ray examination of the painting has not only revealed some afterthoughts, but has also shown that the phrase "Et in Arcadia Ego" was originally written on a mound of earth in place of the brick memorial which can be seen now. Poussin repeated this subject in two famous works, the first of which was made in 1629 for the Barberini family, in whose residence he may well have seen the version by Guercino.

What are heatmaps?
Heatmaps show the tracks frequently used by the Suunto Movescount community all over the globe, based on millions of Moves. You can find rich, topographical maps showing where your new favourite route travels.
Finding heatmaps is straighforward. Log into movescount.com, and you will come to your profile page. At the top there are three tabs: Me, Map, and Community. Click on Map. As a default, you will be brought to a heatmap of your geographical location and shown the heatmap of your default activity in Movescount. It will look something like this (on the dark map setting):
You can search other cities or regions by typing the name of the place into the "search location" box on the top-right corner of the screen. You can change the activity (i.e. running to trail running) at the top left, and this will bring up the associated heatmap in that area.
Creating a new route
You can create a new route straight from a heatmap, as well as from a public move, or a public route in Movescount. We'll start with creating a new route directly from heatmap.
Firstly you'll want to zoom into the map close enough so that you can see that you're tracking the right street or trail (you can now max zoom in on the map and still see the heatmap track). When you have found the location where you would like to start your route, go to the bottom left corner of your screen and tap on the blue circle with the + sign. Click 'Create New —> Route.' From here you can drop you first pin and begin creating your route.
Some tips on drawing a route
If you are making a route that travels generally via roadways or trails, use 'follow roads walking' for the best representation of the track. You can find this function at the bottom of the map page, along with the editing tools; undo, clear, and simplify (which reduces the nuances in the route). Zoom in and out of the view via the +/- buttons at the bottom-right corner.
When you are completed, give the route a name that will be easy for you to distinguish from others you may create. You can add a description, and tags and make the route private or public.
How to sync the route with your watch
The easiest way to sync your newly made route is used the slider at the bottom of your list of routes and indicate you'd like to use the route on your Suunto watch. Then connect your watch and the route will sync automatically.
You can go to the '"watches" tab on you profile to see all your routes and manage them from this page as well by clicking on the slider associated with the Suunto watch you are using. Then connect your watch and the route will appear when you've indicated.
Using existing routes
One of the best ways to discover new places to run is via existing routes, This streamlines the process of building go-to tracks and trails. To do this, search the location that you are interested in, and then choose the activity you want the route for (i.e. running or trail running) from the menu on the top-left. Initially you'll see the heatmap only. Then navigate to the tabs below the activity type, and click on "routes," and this will bring up all the saved, public routes that have been made by the Suunto community. You will see icons indicating these routes.
You can hover over the route to see the distance, and then click on the icon and the route will be highlighted. If it looks like "the one," click the "+" sign at the bottom right of the route dialogue box and it will be saved to your routes. Then you simply sync the route to your Suunto watch as described above.
If you don't have a Suunto GPS watch but use some other GPS device, you can still enjoy the benefits of Movescount's heatmaps and routes; once you have found a route you like, you can export it as a kml or gpx file on your computer and use it as you like.
Routes inspiration
We live for discovery and have been putting together a detailed list of some of the best running routes in cities around the world, including our hometown of Helsinki, find them here.
We have running route tips for Barcelona, London, New York City, Paris, Stockholm and more. You can find them here.
For each city, we've tapped the local runners who've run these routes, lived these routes and have shared a part of their city with you, and we're just getting started, more is coming!

As a patient at Memorial Sloan Kettering, your child or young adult may be able to participate in a clinical research study, also known as a clinical trial. In a clinical trial, doctors evaluate a new therapy or a therapy combination to determine whether it is more effective than the current best approaches.
Information learned through clinical trials has helped raise the cure rate for pediatric cancers to more than 70 percent overall, with some childhood malignancies achieving more than 90 percent cure rates. Clinical trials test the newest, most-effective possible approaches to the treatment of these diseases, with the intent to provide long-term disease-free survival in all children with cancer.
Our patients have access to many of the latest clinical trials, some of which are only available at Memorial Sloan Kettering. We also participate in many nationwide clinical trials as a founding member of the Children's Oncology Group, as the coordinating center and co-founder of the Pediatric Oncology Experimental Therapeutics Investigators' Consortium, and through other multicenter trial networks across the United States.
The decision to have your child participate in a clinical trial is entirely up to you and your child. Regardless of whether your child receives standard treatment or therapy through a clinical trial, he or she will benefit from Memorial Sloan Kettering's ongoing commitment to excellence in patient care.

While I loathe seeing the same damned footage of planes smashing into the WTC buildings and people jumping out of windows and people fleeing in terror as dust clouds cover them in pitch blackness over and over and over (MSNBC being the worst of the lot for me, every time I turned that channel on for news the first 2 days they'd be showing their "exclusive footage" of the 2nd jet plunging into the WTC from the angle of impact -- a gruesome scene), I am wondering where the footage of the Pentagon being hit is, or even pics of the 757 circling before impact which was reported as pointed at by Secret Service men on the lawn of the White House.
I mean, it took less than 24 hours for media sources to find footage of the first plane smashing into the WTC (something which, before I had seen it, I thought we'd most likely never get a look at and media outlets would simply show stupid computer recreations of that first impact), but no footage has surfaced from Washington DC from before to during the impact, just pictures after the terrible hit. I don't really want to see more images of the carnage, but were there really no videos or snapshots of the attack on the Pentagon or is the government keeping those locked down for some particular reason (possibly for intelligence or investigative reasons)?

The Sterling Mk4/L2A3 Stormtrooper blaster conversion display with the new stand and extra plaque, as a good friend of mine said the "Legend Stormtrooper blaster":
Despite the fact that my blaster is specific to a scene and not necessarily needed an upgrade, I thought in the future I might want to add some extra accurate greeblies to it like a Hengstler counter, especially the very rare Eagle version, which was used on the E-11 in SW. So I painted the Eagle Hengstler I have, and I will make a bracket for it.
The good thing is that attaching the Hengstler will be not invasive or damaging at all since it will be using the scope rail for this purpose. Easy to add on and easy to remove, just playing with a couple of screws.
The painted accurate Eagle Hengstler:

Former Census Bureau chief to speak, April 16
Posted April 5, 2001; 10:34 a.m.
Kenneth Prewitt, former director of the U.S. Census Bureau, will present a lecture on "What I Learned About America from Census 2000" at 4:30 p.m. Monday, April 16, in Dodds Auditorium, Robertson Hall.
Prewitt joined the Census Bureau in 1998 and focused his attention on the operations of Census 2000, described by some as the largest peacetime mobilization in history. He had overall responsibility for ensuring that 275 million U.S. residents were correctly counted, and he made serious efforts to increase the level of census participation over previous years. He also fought for the use of statistical sampling to correct historical undercounts. This placed him at odds with most Republicans, who opposed the use of sampling.
Prewitt recently became dean of the graduate faculty at the New School University in New York. From 1979 to 1985 and from 1995 to 1998, he was president of the Social Science Research Council. He also served for 10 years as senior vice president of the Rockefeller Foundation, where he directed the international Science-Based Development Program involving activities in Asia, Africa and Latin America.
This lecture, rescheduled from March 5, is sponsored by the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs and the Survey Research Center.

We have holes at 4 out of the 5 most important positions in the NFL: WR, CB, T, and DE. Praise the man!
We have holes at 4 out of the 5 most important positions in the NFL: WR, CB, T, and DE. Praise the man!
Nobody's laughing any harder than me I promise you(topic). I feel as though Ross/Ireland have sapped me of any hope I have left. I've come to almost expect failure. Our 'Fins track record says it all....."BUT I'M HANGIN ON"!!!
Lets see where Ireland stands in 58 days.
all of those teams w/ the exception of oakland have been playoff teams and a buch won SBs, what good is cap room if you don't know how to use it?
Yes thank you Ireland, we have been enjoying 7-9 seasons and poor drafts from you. Who wouldn't like those things? Oh but your supporters are doing a spin job in the levels of nyjunc about your tenure here, it was the Pat Riley plan all along to suck for 4 years straight and have cap space in 2013 for the likes of Jennings (always injured), Bowe (drops everything), and Wallace (a borderline one dimensional star).
It's called robbing Peter to pay Paul.
He has the cap space because he is losing possibly 7 starters in FA, 32% of his starting team.
So he needs to replace them (even by re-signing a couple) in FA and the draft plus find 3-4 quality starters to upgrade to make the playoffs, IMO.
So we are looking at finding as many as 10-11 starters including re-signs.
This by a guy who has been good for 2-4 per year the last 5 years.
Good luck with that....
No threats at WR, no talent on the books at CB, a QB on his rookie deal, no explosive offensive players under contract...by damn Id hope we have some cap space.
I'm glad the situation has presented himself like it has though, because the excuses for this GM we have are never ending. It's win/win for me . . . if he hits this offseason out of the park, the Fins will be a good team and I could care less about Ireland protectors saying "I told you so". However if he wets the bed like he has been, atleast we'll probably be in for a new GM . . . unfortunately he won't have the luxuries that Ireland has this year . . . but I guess Jeff "earned" it.
BTW, Armando is god awful at what he does.
I'm really curious to see whether our free agent signings tie our hands for the draft. If we don't get some improvement in each of our major positional needs during free agency, then we're almost forced to reach based on positional need during the draft. For example, if we don't at least partially fix the WR position during free agency, we won't have as much freedom with our first pick. That's drafting from a position of weakness. I want to enter the draft feeling good about going after the BPA. We can pretend that PR doesn't factor into a GM's decisions on draft day, but if we don't get a solid FA receiver and then don't draft one on day 1? There's no way Ireland and company will want to weather that firestorm, even if waiting until day 2 might be the better overall move.
Then they try to sell to us that our mediocre free agents are actually good players and we should re-sign them to the deals they want. Yeah, to defend Ireland previous drafts they call our mediocre players "good".

Welcome to this first Local Show of this brand New Year. If you thought the fight over what so many now refer to as Obamacare was over, it's not. It has simply moved to state capitals.
While the Supreme Court upheld most of the Affordable Care Act, it left up to states whether to expand Medicaid. Medicaid Expansion is going to be one of the most contentious issues lawmakers wrestle with in Topeka and Jefferson City as they prepare to start new legislative sessions in both states.
It's one of those issues that gets complicated fast. In this report from Sam Zeff, we try to make sense of it all, by picking apart what's at stake so we can better understand the arguments on both sides. KCPT's reporting on healthcare issues is funded in part by a grant from the Health Care Foundation of Greater Kansas City.

Concerns about China's banking sector hurt futures this morning, and the pain continued after the opening bell.
In recent trading, the Dow Jones Industrial Average was falling 158 points, or 1.1%, while the Nasdaq and the S&P 500 were both off 1.3%.
Update: The Dow is now down 239 points, or 1.6%; the Nasdaq and S&P 500 were off 1.7% each.
Second update: The Dow is down 190 points, or 1.3%. The Nasdaq is also off 1.3%, and the S&P 500 is down 1.5%.
Investors are still recovering from last week's rout on worries about the Federal Reserve's timetable for dialing down its $85 billion per-month bond-buying program.
Overnight the Shanghai Composite Index dropped 5.3%, led by the banking sector. Markets worried that Beijing won't move to ease the nation's liquidity crunch as short-term rates are still above 6%. China's assurances that there is enough liquidity in the system have done little to calm fears.
Nomura's Lucy Feng reiterated her cautious stance on the sector today, writing: "We believe a blow-up in systemic risk will not occur as the People's Bank of China (PBoC) is clearly closely monitoring what is happening and still has plenty of ammunition to ease the pressure (through either repurchases in the bond market or cutting the reserve requirement ratio [RRR]). What is obvious is that the PBoC is no longer tolerating banks taking advantage of the interbank market to boost yields or funding. In our view, this is part of the process to get the banks ready for the upcoming interest rate deregulation measures and is also in line with the recent tougher regulatory measures over non-standard wealth management products."

This is the most comprehensive and authoritative introduction to Tibetan Buddhism available to date, covering a wide range of topics, including history, doctrines, meditation, practices, schools, religious festivals, and major figures. The revised edition contains expanded discussions of recent Tibetan history and tantra and incorporates important new publications in the field. Beginning with a summary of the Indian origins of Tibetan Buddhism and how it eventually was brought to Tibet, it explores Tibetan Mahayana philosophy and tantric methods for personal transformation. The four main schools of Tibetan Buddhism, as well as Bön, are explored in depth from a nonsectarian point of view. This new and expanded edition is a systematic and wonderfully clear presentation of Tibetan Buddhist views and practices.

Freshmen tackle challenges and new adventures
Posted September 9, 2010; 05:30 p.m.
Nearly 800 members of Princeton's newest undergraduate class are preparing for the start of their freshman year by confronting physical challenges and forging bonds with their classmates through the Outdoor Action pre-orientation program.
Diane Jeon (left) congratulates classmate Hyunjean Kim after a climb.
Outdoor Action is the University's oldest and largest pre-orientation program. This year's program has the highest enrollment in its 37-year history, with 796 students -- roughly 60 percent of the class of 2014 -- participating. From Sept. 5-10, the Outdoor Action groups are engaged in experiential learning activities at sites in Virginia, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, New York and New England. Among other excursions, the group is visiting the Princeton-Blairstown Center, a 275-acre camp in northwest New Jersey, hiking in the Delaware Water Gap and taking sustainable farming trips near Princeton.
Freshman Dillon Sharp, who joined his classmates for rock climbing, hiking and other activities along the Appalachian Trail in northwest New Jersey, said, "You get to know people really well when you are together for days, and trying to avoid rainstorms and rattlesnakes makes for a really close bond."
At the same time, an additional 145 freshmen are participating in Community Action, which sponsors volunteer service projects in Princeton, Trenton and Philadelphia. Students are working with community organizations focused on the arts, health, environmental awareness, housing, hunger relief and education.
In late August, a group of 20 students who were selected for the second year of Princeton's Bridge Year Program gathered on campus for an orientation program before heading to their destinations in Ghana, India, Peru and Serbia. The Bridge Year Program enables students to defer the start of their freshman year to spend a tuition-free enrichment period abroad focused on public service.
The rest of the class of 2014 will arrive on campus to begin an orientation program on Saturday, Sept. 11. Among the first activities for the freshmen is Opening Exercises at 3 p.m. Sunday, Sept. 12, in the University Chapel. Classes begin Thursday, Sept. 16.
Below are additional photos from the students' Outdoor Action and Bridge Year Program orientation activities.

2008 Music while-you-walk dropped from GTA IV
Grand Theft Auto IV - General News | @ 07:04 AM MDT | By Neil
Some time ago, a number of magazines reported that you'd be able to listen to music while you walk around the streets of Liberty City using GTA IV's cell phone. Unfortunately, EGM has now confirmed that this feature has been axed from the final version of the game.
The removal of promised features is not uncommon for GTA titles. Early in the San Andreas media blitz, an excited Dan Houser told the Official UK PlayStation 2 Magazine "We�re having to go to dual layer DVD because we�ve already filled up a full DVD". Later that year, GTA San Andreas shipped on a single layer DVD for PS2. Other magazines, including Australia's official PS2 magazine and GamePro, reported that trams in San Fierro would be drivable, yet this feature was mysteriously missing from the final release.
With just eight days left on our countdown, could this be the beginning of a week which reveals some more features which didn't make the cut for the final version of GTA IV? Thanks to wesj for the scan!

text: There are several factors that influence the degree of difficulty in a trial. These factors additionally figure into a "Q". The quality of the grounds, the number of entries (time) and the strength of the field. The key is having enough test that you can achieve separation. With good grounds, separation may be accomplished without retiring a gun or adding additional factors to a blind. With lessor grounds additional factors may be need to achieve separation.

Finally mounted up my 5 bearded bird's beard that I got a while ago. Not sure what the best way to mount one of those is (without mounting the whole bird), but here is what I came up with.
I wanted to keep all the beards on the same piece of skin and also try to keep the way they were spaced on the bird the same.
I would be interested to see how others mounted a double or more beard.
Before wrapping.
The mount.
Just put it on the wall for now...may put it on the beard board later...not sure yet.

Wedbush Securities's video game analyst Michael Pachter was on CNBC's "Fast Money: Halftime Report" with Scott Wapner and company a short while ago to discuss how Microsoft (MSFT) fumbled the "E3" video game conference in Los Angeles this week, in his view.
In addition to Microsoft's "Xbox One" being undercut by Sony's (SNE) PlayStation 4 by $100, the new machine has spooked gamers with its need for constant online logins to use games, he contends:
Microsoft is trying to solve a problem that doesn't exist. They want you be able to access every game publish instantly. That means you have to log in every day. Gamers are up in arms. They don't want big brother looking over their shoulds. Microsoft has a lot of 'splaining to do, as Ricky Ricardo used to say.
Pachter was asked about GameStop (GME), on whose shares he maintains a Buy rating and a $49 price target. GameStop, which makes a large trade in used games, have been up and down a lot on mixed messages about whether the new consoles will support used games, and on general fears that disc-based games overall are going the way of the buggy whip with the increasing use of downloaded games.
On the latter point, Pachter observed that it will take years before downloadable content takes 30% to 40% of the overall game software market. "I think those guys have a lot of years ahead of them," said Pachter, as disc-based games continue to represent the larger percentage of games sold.
GameStop shares today are up $1.32, or 3.5%, at $38.85, helped by an upgrade from Oppenheimer & Co.'s Brian Nagel to Buy, with a $50 price target.

SUPERKOMBAT will continue with their World Grand Prix series with the fourth event that is looking to qualify one man for the SUPERKOMBAT World Grand Prix at the end of this year.

Zeyada has not been super active over the past year, in fact he hasn't fought since 2011, but it will be great to see him back in action against a top competitor.
The event will be broadcast on EuroSport, Sport.ro in Romania, Fight Now TV in America and Epicentre.tv worldwide for $9.99.

China's internet stocks are flying high once again.
Consider: Sina Corp. (SINA) has jumped 6.2% to $63.91, E-Commerce China Dangdang (DANG) has climbed 4.7% to $8.00, Vipshop (VIPS) has gained 4.2% and Qihoo 360 Technology (QIHU) has risen 3.2%. Those stocks, meanwhile, have now gained between 9% and 20% just this week.
What's driving the gains? My guess: Consolidation fever. On Tuesday, Baidu (BIDU) disclosed that it had reached an agreement to buy app-store 91 Wireless Websoft, while rumors abound that Qihoo will acquire search portal Sogou from Sohu.com (SOHU).
ABR Investment Strategy's Henry Guo discusses the speculation in a note released yesterday:
SOHU shares have outperformed the market recently, mainly due to speculation that Qihoo 360 is to acquire a controlling stake in Sohu's search business. While we could not confirm or deny the speculation, our thoughts about the potential deal are as follows:
We believe QIHU's acquisition of Sogou is likely, given Sogou's strategic value in the China search market and QIHU's need of gaining search market share to meaningfully challenge industry leader. If there is a deal, we believe the deal is likely to be finalized sometime in August when or after QIHU reports its 2Q13 earnings.
A deal would be positive for Sohu's shares if Sogou fetches $1.2 billion, Guo says, Qihoo might be overpaying but the price is worth it for the search-traffic gains and the potential cost benefits of the deal.

Still, there's telling the story, and then there's selling the story — for example, an early press release described Drug Rug, much to their chagrin, as a "magical love duo." Even for Cronin and Allen, though, the line between bandmates and boyfriend/girlfriend is often vague, and sometimes nonexistent.
"It's hard to separate band time with boyfriend/girlfriend time," says Allen, as we sit at their kitchen table, listening to the light rain pattering outside. "Once a month, we're like, 'I'm not going to do this anymore.' "
Music may be a complex force in their relationship now, but originally, three years ago, it was what brought Allen and Cronin together, when they met while working at the Middle East. The two exchanged demos, and made plans to hang out and play together as a way of breaking the ice. Simultaneously, they began dating and writing Drug Rug material together, and eventually recruited a fluxing cast of occasional bandmates, including Tulsa frontman Carter Tanton (who recorded their first album in his basement in Allston), and former Lot Six–ers Julian Cassanetti and Dan Burke.
Drug Rug recently finished recording their second album at Old Soul Studios, in the Catskills. But even three years and two albums in, the ease of the band's ironically buoyant pop songs about darker topics (like death) doesn't necessarily reflect an effortless songwriting process.
"It doesn't come totally naturally to us," says Cronin. "It's a collaborative effort. Lately, what we've been doing is Tommy or I will write a complete demo," and the other will edit or experiment with the song. The upside to all that effort is that the two are always improving upon their collaborative process.
"There are a lot of vocals on this [upcoming] record," says Cronin. "We've learned to sing with each other a lot better."
Dean and BrittaIt's easier to get two people to agree than four.
That's the perk of having a bandmate who's also your significant other, says onetime Bostonian Dean Wareham, on the phone from his Manhattan apartment. He's on a break from co-composing music, with wife Britta Phillips, for an upcoming release of Andy Warhol film shorts. Wareham's list of titles is ever-increasing these days: former member of the influential late-'80s/early-'90s Boston dream-pop band Galaxie 500, and the post-Galaxie, equally dreamy NYC band Luna; film composer (he and Phillips wrote music for the film The Squid and the Whale, among others); recently published memoirist (his book, Black Postcards, came out last March); and now one half of the musical duo Dean and Britta (who played at the Paradise this month).
After years of band arguments, complex breakups, tiresome tours, and friendships ruined, Wareham says working with Phillips is a positive change. The two met when founding Luna bassist Justin Harwood left the group in 2000, and a guitar tech/mutual friend suggested Phillips audition for the band. At the time, Phillips was familiar with Luna, but says with a quiet laugh, "I hadn't really listened to their songs before." She crammed for the audition by learning 10 songs from the Luna catalogue in less than two days.

Marshmallows go from mundane to marvelous in beautiful cupcakes! They're conveniently prepared with cake mix and ready-to-spread frosting.
Use edible glitter in place of the colored sugar or candy sprinkles. It adds sparkle to cake decorations.
Check out party-supply or cake-decorating stores for fun birthday candles. Lots of new and unique shapes are available.
If you have only one pan and a recipe calls for more cupcakes than your pan will make, cover and refrigerate the rest of the batter while baking the first batch. Cool the pan about 15 minutes, then bake the rest of the batter, adding 1 to 2 minutes to the bake time.

Looking for a tasty holiday dessert? Then check out these cherry-almond cookies that can be made ahead of time.
These are ideal holiday cookies. You can keep the logs of dough in the refrigerator up to 2 weeks and bake them as you need fresh cookies. Or double-wrap them and freeze up to 1 month.
Add an elegant look to these cookies by piping with powdered sugar drizzle. It is quick and easy if you line up rows of cookies so you can just pipe along a long row. Separate the cookies slightly as they set so they don't stick together.

Came across this on another site.
It's hard to believe that in the dozens of Star Wars-themed sets released since 1977, none have had relics or costume cards. Until now. 2013 Topps Star Wars Jedi Legacy is highlighted by a trio of relic cards that are the franchise's first movie memorabilia cards inserted in packs. The set focuses on the sweeping stories and mythologies surrounding Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker. A hobby-exclusive product, boxes promise a Film Cel card (another first for the franchise) and a second hit.
2013 Topps Star Wars Jedi Legacy is a 90-card set that has been divided into two distinct sections. Anakin and Darth Vader get 45 "A" cards while Luke Skywalker has 45 "B" cards. The idea is that their stories are separate but, ultimately, connected. Parallels combine to fall at least one per pack. Blue Light Saber cards are the most common, falling one per pack. Other Light Saber-themed parallels include Magenta (1:6 packs), Green (1:24 packs) and Gold (10 per card). Printing Plates are considered a box hit, falling 1:30 boxes.
The set has three different relics. Ewok fur is the most common, falling 1:5 boxes. There is also Jabba's Sail Barge (1:14 boxes) and Chewbacca's hair (1:30 boxes). The Ewok card has swatches from Wicket, Logray, Teebo and others. The Chewbacca hair is from the original trilogy.
Film Cel cards have a big checklist and tiered structure to encourage set collecting. Thirty Single Film Cel cards are one per box and have original frames from Episode IV, V and VI. Five Double Film Cel cards and ten Triple Film Cel cards each fall 1:6 boxes. These focus on frames that have Luke or Darth Vader.
2013 Topps Star Wars Jedi Legacy has 20 different autographs from actors in all six films. One autograph is in every third box. Confirmed signers include Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) and Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia). Estimated Release Date: 5/22/13
At least I have enough sleeves left over from the Galactic Files set to hold these new ones.

This is the second installment of the salvaged copper plates containing Birmingham Silversmiths work samples or test pieces. The following link is to the first CW installment:
This copper plate was found in the bowels of an old Silversmiths' workshop in the Jewellery Quarter, in Birmingham. It was found when the blocked off subterranean stairs and corridor leading to a derelict workshop were being cleared.
It was discovered in a damp and rusted trunk along with other discarded bits of detritus, furniture and unidentified wreckage (hopefully more posts to follow!), all blocking access to the sealed up workshop door. It only escaped the tip because the owner of the premises thought it might be a silver plate under all the grime. He is a member of the family that has been the buildings' custodians for best part of 150 years; he kindly gave us the previous plates (as posted) and subsequent to our CW post; said we were quite welcome to this plate as well! He had partially cleaned the plate but stopped when it was obviously not silver, I have finished the cleaning process, but it took some real "elbow grease" to get it to shine!
This Royal Cypher or crest of Edward VII is obviously engraved by a skilled artisan, and my question, as before, remain; why would the Silversmith do it on copper?
I am now fairly sure the previously posted engraved plates from inside the workshop are by different hands and that the corridor leading to the workshop now gives up another engraver's piece. It is a bit like the layers of time being "peeled" back bit at a time, with interesting pieces contained in each layer!
Much help and insight from ROBinHawaii & miKKoChristmas11 (below) has been appreciated on this, and the previous mystery finds, from the world famous but gradually vanishing historic Jewellery Quarter in the English Midlands.
If interested; cut'n'paste the following link in your browser:

When you visit the variety of ancient synagogues in Galilee, you'll realize that far from being ruins of a long-gone civilization, these beautiful structures symbolize the flowering of Jewish ritual and community life in ways relevant to this very day. You'll discover how these monuments, dating between the third and the seventh centuries, when most Jews had to move from Jerusalem to Galilee, reflected their builders' faith and commitment to each other, as well as a fascinating infusion of the surrounding culture.
In the high mountains of Galilee, you'll find the synagogue of Bar Am, the centerpiece of a forested national park. Its intricately carved façade has survived almost intact since it was built some 1,700 years ago. You'll discover similar synagogue façades elsewhere in Galilee, and realize that most faced south, toward Jerusalem, an architectural way of demonstrating that though the Holy City was at that time inaccessible, it was never forgotten. Further south, on a slope overlooking the Sea of Galilee, is Korazim, where the Israel Nature and Parks Authority has restored the massive, black basalt synagogue as well as village homes and courtyards. You'll see more beautiful carvings attesting to the effort and expense the villagers invested to adorn this, their most important building. You can even sit on the same stone benches the ancient congregation did, facing each other, an arrangement that jives perfectly with the meaning of the Greek word "synagogue" and its Hebrew equivalent, Beit Knesset: house of assembly – and still the practice among Sephardic Jews today. The Korazim synagogue also has a Moses Seat, where the rabbi would sit while delivering his sermon.
The white limestone synagogue of Capernaum, near the Sea of Galilee, is not only testimony to Galilean Jewish life; it is a magnet for Christian visitors because of the frequent mention of this town in the New Testament. Time in Capernaum therefore also becomes an opportunity to consider how Jews and Christians might have coexisted in this region in the Talmudic times when both synagogues and churches were built.
Three Galilee synagogues have magnificent, multicolored mosaic floors: Hamat Tiberias overlooking the Sea of Galilee, Beit Alpha in the Jezreel Valley, and Tzippori in the Galilee Mountains. They all have a Zodiac, a design the Jews borrowed from the surrounding Greco-Roman culture. But you'll find the familiar astrological logos labeled in Hebrew, along with early Jewish artistic symbols, some of which are still part of Jewish life: the candelabra, lulav, etrog and shofar. At Beit Alpha, the mosaic artists and donors mentioned in the inscriptions come alive in a wonderful audiovisual presentation.
At Tzippori the synagogue mosaic depicts Sarah, the offering of Isaac (also seen at Beit Alpha), along with detailed elements of Temple worship, which together reveal the promise of redemption that must have sustained this community.
The fascinating interplay of symbols and the sense of community effort inscribed, literally and figuratively, in the remains of the various Galilee synagogues you visit will leave you in awe not only of their aesthetics, but of the still-timely message they convey.

Gordon and Betty Collins of Placentia are the $30 million Lotto Max top prize winners from the Jan. 25 draw, Atlantic Lottery Corp. announced today.
The winners will be introduced to the public Thursday afternoon in St. John's during a news conference and cheque presentation.
Gordon Collins is a semi-retired pharmacist.
Placentia Mayor Bill Hogan says it's hard to get a pharmacist to work in his part of Newfoundland, but it's likely going to be harder now to get Gordon to keep filling in at the local Lawton's Drugs.
The Collins' weren't available for comment but Hogan speaks highly of them and says he believes Gordon is currently filling in at the local drugstore.
"He's one of these fellas that doesn't like to refuse anybody, so the easiest thing for him to do now is buy the drugstore and close it. Then they won't be able to torment him to go back and forth to work," says Hogan.
Gordon has worked as a pharmacist for as long as Hogan can remember. He compares him to Frank Fagan who was just announced Tuesday as being the province's new lieutenant governor to succeed Lt.-Gov. John Crosbie.
"He's a good fella," Hogan said, adding that he is active in the community and highly respected.
"Everyone wishes him well. He's a likeable fella. He contributed to the community. He always seemed to have a finger into helping somebody out."

8.17: Deep Ocean Currents
How are ocean currents like a conveyor belt?
Seawater doesn't just circulate around the surface, it moves through the deep sea. Just like at the surface, normal circulation patterns transport much of the water. Seawater is moved as if on a conveyor through the surface and deep ocean, a trip that takes hundreds of years.
Deep Currents
Thermohaline circulation drives deep ocean circulation. Thermo means heat and haline refers to salinity. Differences in temperature and in salinity change the density of seawater. So thermohaline circulation is the result of density differences in water masses because of their different temperature and salinity.
What is the temperature and salinity of very dense water? Lower temperature and higher salinity yield the densest water. When a volume of water is cooled, the molecules move less vigorously, so same number of molecules takes up less space and the water is denser. If salt is added to a volume of water, there are more molecules in the same volume, so the water is denser.
Changes in temperature and salinity of seawater take place at the surface. Water becomes dense near the poles. Cold polar air cools the water and lowers its temperature, increasing its salinity. Fresh water freezes out of seawater to become sea ice, which also increases the salinity of the remaining water. This very cold, very saline water is very dense and sinks. This sinking is called downwelling.
This video lecture discusses the vertical distribution of life in the oceans. Seawater density creates currents, which provide different habitats for different creatures (5d): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LA1jxeXDsdA (6:12).
Two things then happen. The dense water pushes deeper water out of its way and that water moves along the bottom of the ocean. This deep water mixes with less dense water as it flows. Surface currents move water into the space vacated at the surface where the dense water sank (Figure below). Water also sinks into the deep ocean off of Antarctica.
Cold water (blue lines) sinks in the North Atlantic, flows along the bottom of the ocean and upwells in the Pacific or Indian. The water then travels in surface currents (red lines) back to the North Atlantic. Deep water also forms off of Antarctica.
Since unlimited amounts of water cannot sink to the bottom of the ocean, water must rise from the deep ocean to the surface somewhere. This process is called upwelling (Figure below).
Upwelling forces denser water from below to take the place of less dense water at the surface that is pushed away by the wind.
Generally, upwelling occurs along the coast when wind blows water strongly away from the shore. This leaves a void that is filled by deep water that rises to the surface.
Upwelling is extremely important where it occurs. During its time on the bottom, the cold deep water has collected nutrients that have fallen down through the water column. Upwelling brings those nutrients to the surface. Those nutrients support the growth of plankton and form the base of a rich ecosystem. California, South America, South Africa, and the Arabian Sea all benefit from offshore upwelling.
An animation of upwelling is seen here: http://oceanservice.noaa.gov/education/kits/currents/03coastal4.html.
Upwelling also takes place along the equator between the North and South Equatorial Currents. Winds blow the surface water north and south of the equator, so deep water undergoes upwelling. The nutrients rise to the surface and support a great deal of life in the equatorial oceans.
- Cooling or evaporation of fresh water from the sea surface makes surface water dense and causes it to sink.
- Downwelling of cold, dense water drives thermohaline circulation.
- Upwelling takes place at some coastlines or along the equator and brings cool, nutrient-rich water to the surface.

Updated on 29 March 2013
Are you Depressed; Consume more Vitamin B12
Singapore: A new study conducted by MRC Neuropsychiatric Research Laboratory in Epsom, Surrey, UK, has found that there may be an association between depression and vitamin b12 deficiency.
Vitamin b12 has previously been associated with improved neurological functions as well as mood enhancement. The results of the study was published in an article in US HCG Injections, which is a US-based company that provides weight loss shots such as hcg, b12 and other general wellness vitamins.
The study concluded that the majority of patients who suffered from depression symptoms were low in both folate and vitamin b12. It is common knowledge that alcohol hinders the absorption of nutrients, including b12, which can potentially further exacerbate the situation. Furthermore patients that have a normal level of folic acid and vitamin b12 respond better to treatment than those that have a deficiency.
Low levels of vitamin b12 can occur due to diet, alcoholism or an underlying condition that prevents or hampers the absorption of the vitamin. In order to maintain a normal level of b12 it is important to be sure to consume animal products like milk, fish, beef, chicken and eggs. For those that are on a vegan or vegetarian diet b12 supplementation, such as those found in vitamin b-12 shots, may be an alternative.

A few weeks ago during a public hearing IG J. Russell George was asked regarding the 41 interviews his staff had held with IRS employees during the audit:
"Why was Holly Paz (from the IRS) at almost all of the interviews you conducted?
The IG's response was: "I am unaware of it. This is the first time I have heard this." And then the IG said he would look into it. Several weeks have passed and I have found nothing further on line about this. I assume the IG is still looking into it.
According to reports, Holly Paz sat in on 36 of the 41 interviews the IG's staff conducted during their audit. As best I can determine, Holly Paz was the former director at the tax exempt office in Cincinnati. She was then promoted to the IRS office in Washington DC. In March 2012 when Acting IRS Commissioner Miller told Nancy Marks (Senior Tech Advisor in the Wash Office) to go to Cincinnati and check out what was going on, Holly Paz accompanied her and assisted in the internal investigation. Six weeks later (May 3, 2012) Nancy Marks gave an oral report to Miller on her findings. When asked during the hearing what those findings were, Miller could not recall nor could he remember the names of the people Nancy Marks said were involved.
Recently Holly Paz was interviewed by Issa's committee, but it was behind closed doors and not at a public hearing. So far, I have found no information on line as to what the committee learned from Holly Paz.
Recently Issa's committee interviewed behind closed doors (not publicly) 4 IRS employees from the Cincinnati office. They held various positions including "manager". According to Issa, those 4 Cincinnati employees they received orders from the Washington DC office.
It is now June 4. As far as we know, we know nothing about Holly Paz' involvement because she has not testified at a public hearing. We don't know why as an IRS director in Washington DC that she was allowed to sit in on 36 interviews conducted in the IG audit. We don't know why the IG did not know she had sat in on those interviews. Mr. George has some explaining to do.
Granted, because it was an audit the employees were not under oath, but it seems odd that their former boss would sit in on their interviews.

Deeplinks Blog posts about Mass Surveillance Technologies
June 5, 2013 was when the world heard from Snowden. This year, it's your turn to speak out.
On June 5, 2013 the Guardian newspaper published the first of Edward Snowden's astounding revelations. The secret court order that conclusively showed that the US government was collecting the phone records of millions of innocent Verizon customers. It was the first of a continuous stream of stories that pointed out what we've suspected for a long time: that the world's digital communications are being continuously spied upon by nation states with precious little oversight.
Twenty-three governments have come together this week for the 4th annual Freedom Online Coalition (FOC) conference in Tallinn, Estonia—a meeting where FOC members work together to "coordinate their diplomatic efforts and engage with civil society" in order to advance Internet freedom worldwide.
Case Argues Cisco Built Surveillance Tools Specifically Designed to Help Chinese Authorities Target Falun Gong
EFF filed a request to submit an amicus brief today in the Federal District Court of the Northern District of California, urging the Court to let a case entitled Doe v. Cisco Systems go forward against Cisco for its role in contributing to human rights abuses against the Falun Gong religious minority in China. China's record of human rights abuses against the Falun Gong is notorious, including detention, torture, forced conversions, and even deaths. These violations have been well-documented by the U.N., the U.S. State Department, and many others around the world, including documentation of China's use of sophisticated surveillance technologies to facilitate this repression.
Rumors of the extent of Ethiopia's digital surveillance and censorship state have echoed around the information security community for years. Journalists such as Eskinder Nega have spoken of being shown text messages, printouts of emails, and recordings of their own telephone conversations by the Ethiopian security services. From within the country, commentators connected growing telecommunications surveillance to the increasing presence of Chinese telecommunications company ZTE. Externally, analysis of the targeted surveillance of exiled Ethiopians have turned up surveillance software built and sold by Western companies, such as FinFisher and Hacking Team.
The NSA has seen the future of mass surveillance, and it appears they believe that the future lies in malware. Earlier this week, The Intercept reported on a series of slides and memos leaked by Edward Snowden describing the NSA's "more aggressive" approach to signals intelligence, which circumvents encryption such as web browsing via HTTPS and email using PGP, by installing spyware directly onto targets' computers.

Vintage 2011: Logray*
Vintage 2011: Bespin Han Solo
I bolded the figures that I'm excited about.
I don't "collect them" like some of you guys do, but figures like Nom Anor I'll surely buy multiples of to represent the character in several different dioramas (vs Mara Jade, vs Jaina Solo, vs Kir Kanos, etc)
*Logray is not on my want list. However, if I can use him (or my older Logray figure in "disguise" ) to broaden my number of Ewoks in my Endor diorama, than I'm all for getting 2-3 of him. The Jabba Guards are Army Builders as well.
The Leia Sandstorm is a Slave Leia wrapped in a cloak or blanket for protection from the sandstorm that hits the Tatooine Skiff as the Rebels leave the scene of Jabba the Hutt's distruction at the Sarlaac Pit. She'll be "vintage carded." So some of you might get a big thrill out of collecting that one.
Figures like Aayla, Zam, Mace, Lando General, etc. I just don't need. I already have some version of them. But the new vintage style cards will be interesting to look at when I pass them by in the store.
