A. Mental illnesses are biologically based brain
disorders that can profoundly disrupt a person's
thinking, feeling, moods, ability to relate to others,
and capacity for coping with the demands of life. Mental
illnesses include disorders such as schizophrenia, major
depressive disorder, and bi-polar disorder.
A. According to the U. S. Surgeon General's Report
published in 1999, 1 in 5 Americans will experience a
mental illness in their lifetime. In Alabama the Division of Mental
Illness Services serves over 100,000 people per year.
Ninety-five percent of these consumers receive services
through our certified community providers. Approximately
five percent receive services through state operated
A. Schizophrenia is a biological brain disease that
interferes with a person's ability to think clearly,
manage emotions, make decisions, and relate to others.
Many people with schizophrenia have hallucinations and
delusions, meaning they hear and see things that are not
there and believe things that are not real to be true.
Contrary to popular belief, schizophrenia is not "split
personality". Currently, one to two percent of the
world's population, including one to two million
American adults, has schizophrenia. Men and women are at
equal risk; however, most males become ill between the
ages of 16 and 25, while females develop symptoms
between ages 25 and 30. Treatment success rates for
schizophrenia are significantly higher than those for
other physical illnesses such as heart disease.
A. Bipolar disorder is a biological brain disorder
that affects more than 3 million Americans. It is
characterized by episodes of mood swings ranging from
periods of deep depression to times of extreme elation.
Between episodes most people with bipolar disorder have
periods of relatively normal moods and activity. This
brain disorder often begins in adolescence or early
adulthood and continues throughout life. Bipolar
disorder is highly treatable through a combination of
medications and psychotherapy.
A. Anxiety disorders are the nation's most common
form of mental illness, affecting over 20 million people
per year. Types of anxiety disorders include: phobias,
panic disorder, obsessive-compulsive disorder (OCD),
post-traumatic stress disorder (PTSD), and general
anxiety disorder (GAD). Anxiety disorders, like most
types of mental illnesses, respond exceptionally well to

In 24 hours however, the deseg article-- again, with a direct link here-- has had only attracted 16 views.
Some non-sports articles do OK, even without a direct link here: Vote Beausoleil, about 60 views, UL's SBDC Director taking top honors, less than 40 views.
So we care about football a lot more than academics and other things. But there seems to be a definite resistance to the deseg story.
Why do you guys & gals think that is?
Raginpagin.com = primarily a sports forum. So when the "secondary" topic comes up, it attracts "secondary" interest.
And my guess at the deseg story: Most people avoid anything involving race because it's a touchy subject that makes people uncomfortable. Sports forums are an escape from reality, therefore most people here would probably steer clear.
One solution would be for less people to click on the QB Club notes. We would then have a better academic to athletic ratio.
The 1954 academic desegregation led to the athletic desegregation of the 1960's. In the early 1970's, there were only three historically white southern schools who were allowing blacks on their teams: Florida State; Houston; and little ol' SLI/UL.
All three of us had powerhouse basketball teams.
UL basketball, of course, finished in the Top 10 nationally-- yes, in the major college polls, along with UCLA, UNC, Kentucky, Indiana, Maryland, -- in both 1972 and 1973. I own a Sports Illustrated featuring 5 schools on the cover, one of them being USL.
All of this happens because we had talent that very few other schools had-- black talent. And that happens because we had desegregated back in 1954, long before the rest of the South.
Without the success of that basketball team, UL does not build its athletics as well as we have; we probably don't become charter members of 1A. And we do not grow our campus as much as we have.
In addition, there is not a one of you who would deny any of our black athletes their place on our teams, nor any of our black students or faculty their place on this campus. You are all aware that, if not for the contribution of black athletes, UL's teams would be at the national bottom for most of our sports.
The newest installment is up: http://ultoday.com/node/889
This one is interesting because it highlights the contributions of President Fletcher, Wisdom Chapel (actually Monseigneur Sigur, although he's not mentioned in this section) and Joe Riehl, for whom the Burdin-Riehl campus of Lafayette General is named.

Hopefully we can follow Bishop Hilarion's advice.
What advice was that?
Statements on upcoming meeting between pope, patriarch may be diplomatic movePosted on Wed Jun 04 2008Some progress has been achieved between the two churchesMoscow, June 3, Interfax - The Moscow Patriarchate doesn't rule out that the statement made by Cardinal Walter Kasper saying that Pope Benedict XVI and Patriarch Alexy II will meet in the nearest future may be a diplomatic move by the Vatican.Kasper, who heads the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, recently said the pope and the Russian patriarch may meet in the near future."Such commentaries by one of the parties are sometimes a diplomatic move intended to put certain soft pressure on the negotiating parties. It's like they are saying 'We are glad, we are looking forward [to a meeting], why are you avoiding us?'" Deacon Andrey Kurayev, a professor at the Moscow Theological Academy, told Interfax-Religion on Tuesday.Kurayev said he did not participant in the negotiations between Kasper and the hierarchs of the Russian Orthodox Church and therefore cannot say which precisely nuances of the dialogue gave the cardinal a reason for optimistic comments.At the same time, Kurayev said he is hoping that "some progress has been achieved in our relationship, and it is connected with the fact that the current pope, unlike his predecessor, is not personally responsible for the tragedies in the history of Orthodoxy in Western Ukraine in the early 1990s, when Greek Catholics literally ravaged three Orthodox dioceses."
"I don't mean union, administrative merger or compromise in theological teaching, I mean strategical partnership," the Moscow Patriarchate's representative said.
I believe he was referencing this recent article (emphasis mine)
I believe he was referencing this recent article (emphasis mine):21 April 2008, 12:39Moscow Patriarchate believes in strategic alliance with CatholicsSofia, April 21, Interfax - The Orthodox and Catholic Churches could form a strategic alliance for the protection of Christian values, Russian Orthodox Church Representative to European International Organizations Bishop Hilarion of Vienna and Austria said in an interview with the Bulgarian magazine Christianity and Culture. "We must realize that Orthodox and Catholic believers are no longer rivals. We are allies. The rivalry must be gone once and for all. If we understand that, proselytism will stop," he said.'The romantic ecumenism' personified by the World Council of Churches and the Conference of European Churches is not viable, the bishop said. In his opinion, it would be much better to form bilateral strategic alliances or partnerships, for instance, between the Orthodox and Catholic Churches."I don't mean union, administrative merger or compromise in theological teaching, I mean strategical partnership," the Moscow Patriarchate's representative said. According to Bishop Hilarion, joint Orthodox-Catholic "front" is required both to oppose to the challenges of secularism and to protect traditional Christianity and dialogue with other world religions. He believes that many Protestants unlike the Orthodox and the Catholic have created "a light version of Christianity, without apostolic succession, without sacraments, without strict dogmatic teaching and what is also important they don't require sticking to Christian moral norms." Such communities don't consider centuries-old sins as such and even promote them. When Christian community starts "revising theological or moral teaching of Christianity in order to make it more "modern" or "politically correct", it's a direct way to spiritual death," Bishop Hilarion said.

Three cheers to Bishop Hilarion! Well said.

For Fox's Kelly, The Truth About Welfare Reform Is Not Worth A Lot
Blog ››› ››› JUSTIN BERRIER
Fox host Megyn Kelly let Lou Dobbs promote the bogus narrative being pushed by Fox News and Mitt Romney's campaign that President Obama's administration is stripping work requirements from welfare reform, even though she noted shortly after the segment that the claim has been debunked by fact-checking organizations.
After the Obama administration announced that it would comply with governors' requests for more flexibility in administering work requirements for people receiving Temporary Assistance for Needy Family (TANF) benefits, the right-wing media immediately went on the attack, claiming Obama was gutting the work requirements that were passed as part of President Clinton's 1996 welfare reform.
On America Live, when Kelly asked Fox Business host Lou Dobbs for "the truth" about the issue, Dobbs agreed that Obama was gutting welfare reform "by fiat" and claimed he "wants to enlarge the level of dependency in this country of the federal government even farther and wants to do so with those who are so dependent, unencumbered with any sense of responsibility." Dobbs' claim is one that has been pushed by Fox News incessantly over the past few weeks and was even adopted by the Romney campaign despite the fact that Romney himself requested similar waivers as governor of Massachusetts.
But later in the show, after letting Dobbs push the dishonest right-wing narrative on the welfare waivers, Kelly noted that "for what it's worth" the fact-checking website PolitiFact "rated that claim with a 'pants on fire' rating a few days ago."

Cage size, materials, and accessories
Other than size, mice and rats have essentially the same requirements for housing. A wire cage is best, allowing for 12 x 24 inches of floor space for 2 rats or 4-5 mice. Glass cages do not allow for good ventilation. The wire cage also encourages your pet's instinct for climbing and offers exercise and stimulation. Your design can expand horizontally or vertically, depending on the space available to accommodate ramps, wheels, climbing platforms, ladders, and other
toys (toilet paper and paper towel cardboard rolls make wonderful tunnels for running). Mice and rats need and enjoy a lot of exercise, so be sure the cage and accessories can fill this need.
Bedding material serves many purposes, including: providing a sense of security, insulation, absorbing moisture from waste materials and also as nesting material during breeding. The ideal bedding material should be clean, nontoxic, and free of oils or preservatives. Since heavily soiled areas of the bedding should be removed daily, bedding material should also be easy to replace, relatively dust free and absorbent for convenient maintenance.
There are a variety of
bedding materials available, including: wood shavings, shredded paper, processed corncobs, and pellets. However, when using wood shavings, avoid cedar or pine shavings.
Aspen shavings are the preferred bedding material if using wood shavings.
Recycled shredded paper is another good choice and is environmentally friendly. Shredded newspaper can be used as well but be sure it is printed using soy-based ink. Conventional newsprint ink can be harmful to your pets if ingested. Shredded paper towels work well for "nesting" areas usually created in one corner of your pet's environment. Commercially available bedding is also readily accepted by small pets and is hassle-free for you.
To provide a clean and healthy environment for you and your pet, the entire cage, including accessories, should be thoroughly
cleaned and the bedding changed once a week. Heavily soiled areas should be removed daily. Selecting the appropriate bedding material can make maintenance more convenient and create a clean and safe environment for your pet.
Cage location
Ideal cage location is in a relatively quiet area which is still within view of what is going on in the home. Placing the cage on a table or stand will help your mice or rats feel more secure. Avoid placing the cage in direct sunlight or drafty areas and prevent access to the cage by other household pets, especially cats and dogs.

The location itself has possibilities. It has a nice view of the Lake, and easy freeway access. Yet, it continues to sit there, looking ready for demolition, rather than ready for development.
When it was first opened in 1965, this "HoJo" was also known as the "Lakefront Lodge" and also included a restaurant called the Red Coach Grill. The restaurant and rooms all had sweeping views of Lake Erie. It lost the Howard Johnson's name in 1986, although to me it seems like it's been abandoned long before that.
Cleveland's Lakefront Howard Johnson's, in its heyday
In October of 2006, Crain's Cleveland Business reported the following about this property, which sounded promising at the time:
New owner eyes condos for former HoJo hotel
By STAN BULLARD
4:30 am, October 23, 2006
A new owner with a new plan, this time for condominiums, is in control of a long-empty, 12-story hotel overlooking the lakefront near downtown Cleveland.
The new owner, Bapaz Real Estate Ltd. of Wickliffe, received a sheriff's deed Sept. 14 for the one-time Howard Johnson Motor Inn and Restaurant, which now has a weed-covered parking lot and a weed of tree-like proportions rising from its roof at 5700 S. Marginal Road.
"We're planning to do condos," said Moshe Bohbot, owner of Bapaz. But, he added, "As of now, I don't want to talk about it."
Bapaz paid $633,334 for the foreclosed-upon property in a sheriff's sale, according to Cuyahoga County land records. Bapaz also coughed up more than $300,000 in cash to pay delinquent property taxes to secure title to the hotel from the sheriff's office.
Though not ready to talk, even about his real estate development background, Mr. Bohbot is taking steps toward redeveloping the graffiti-pocked eyesore.
Bapaz has applied for a variance from the city of Cleveland that is on the agenda for the Oct. 30 Board of Zoning Appeals meeting. The variance would allow the planned residential project to proceed despite the property's industrial zoning.
Councilwoman Sabra Pierce Scott, whose Ward 8 includes the structure, has met with Mr. Bohbot and plans to support the variance. The variance would apply only to the hotel and would have no bearing on the surrounding area, she said.
However, given the unfulfilled projects previously proposed for the building, Ms. Scott said, "As optimistic as I'd like to be, we're holding our breath and keeping our fingers crossed about the project." She estimates Bapaz is the eighth group to approach her about the building during her five years in office.
Jamie Blackson Baker, executive director of the St. Clair Superior Development Corp., said the neighborhood group plans to support the variance because it suits the one-time hotel, the views from which she described as "spectacular."
"Having someone do a quality job there would be catalytic in the neighborhood," said Ms. Blackson Baker, who has not met Mr. Bohbot. "It's such a highly visible site. It's big news. We've tried to talk several other developers into considering it."
The prior owner was Leisure Time Hospitality Inc., a gaming concern in Avon, which paid $1 million for the vacant property seven years ago.
Alan Johnson, president of Leisure Time, at the time planned to renovate the hotel and use it as an exhibition parlor for video pull-tab machines benefiting charities, according to a Securities and Exchange Commission filing in 1999. However, that transformation never happened. Mr. Johnson's Avon phone number is unlisted.
Cleveland architect Paul Volpe said his City Architecture firm evaluated the building and prepared preliminary drawings for Leisure Time to install a Radisson Hotel at the site.
Despite its forlorn appearance, Mr. Volpe said the building was sound structurally in the late 1990s and that the work that most needed to be done — such as replacing inexpensive glass and walls typical of the building's 1960s vintage — would need to be replaced anyway.
"The outside looks terrible, but it has great, great views that make it worth considering," Mr. Volpe said.
City Architecture in 2002 sued Leisure Time for more than $25,000 in unpaid fees in Cuyahoga County Court of Common Pleas. The case is still pending.
Prior to Leisure Time's ownership, the property twice had undergone foreclosure proceedings. At least three other groups have lofted plans for the building since the hotel was closed in the early 1990s.
How it looks now
Still, years later, nothing has changed with this building. My attempts to locate any information on, or the whereabouts of, the Bapaz Real Estate company has turned up nothing. The building still looks like a massive eyesore, with apparently nothing going on to change that. As this building is visible from I-90, one of the major arteries of the city and where many out-of-towners pass on a daily basis, the City of Cleveland should be working harder to force either its repair or its demolition. Nothing says a poorly run city like a large abandoned building. While the city continues to talk about lakefront development, it's hard to imagine that anything will ever come of that, considering that this Howard Johnson's has been left to ruin for so many years.

The Mets were 302-253 (.544) under Randolph, second to Davey Johnson in club history.
With the turnover in managers and Randolph's numbers, there's no doubt he'll get another chance.

Chas Addams: A Cartoonist's Life
Random House, 2006 - Art - 382 pages
"They're creepy and they're kooky," is how the catchy theme song of "The Addams Family "described everyone's favorite nonconformists-Morticia, Gomez, Lurch, Uncle Fester, Grandmama, Wednesday, and Pugsley. But for all the novelty of the sitcom based on Charles Addams's groundbreaking "New Yorker "cartoons, Hollywood's Addams family paled beside the cartoonist's. "Not half as evil as my original characters," sighed Addams.
Though the haunted-household cartoons developed a following among "New Yorker "readers long before the 1960s sitcom, and the Addams and their seedy Victorian mansion soon became recognizable types, the artist with the well-known signature "Chas Addams" remained an enigma. Called "the Bela Lugosi of the cartoonists," Addams was the cartoonist everyone-even Hitchcock-wanted to meet. He was bedeviled by rumors. People claimed that he slept in a coffin, collected severed fingers sent by fans, and suffered bouts of madness that sent him to the insane asylum.
The true Addams was even more fabulous than the wildest stories and cartoons. Here was a sunny, funny urbane man, "a normal American boy," as he called himself, with a dog who hated children and a taste for crossbows. While producing a unique body of work featuring lovingly drawn homicidal spouses, demonic children, genteel monsters, and an everyday world crosshatched with magic, Addams raced classic sports cars, juggled beautiful women (Joan Fontaine, Jackie Kennedy, and Greta Garbo, to name a few), and charmed everyone. But though his pursuits suggest lighthearted romantic comedy, Addams's life had its sinister side. Far darker than anything Addams created with a brush was his relationship with a dangerous woman who forever changed his life.
In this first biography of the great cartoonist, written with exclusive access to Addams's intimates and his private papers, we finally meet the man behind the famed cartoons and circling rumors. Here is his surprising childhood in New Jersey, the cartoon that offended the Nazis, the friend whose early death Addams long mourned. Here are his wives, the stories behind his most famous-and some of his most private-cartoons, and the Addams whom even his closest friends didn't know.
With wit, humor, poignancy, and insight-enhanced by rare family photographs, classic and previously unpublished cartoons, and private drawings-Linda H. Davis paints an engaging and endearing portrait of a marvelous American original.
One of America's most gifted biographers, Linda Davis has given us an engrossing, unforgettable portrait of the legendary "New Yorker" cartoonist. In Davis's empathetic narrative and in accompanying cartoons, photographs, and drawings, the great artist lives again in all his eccentric brilliance,
ghoulish sense of humor, fecund love life, and warm and gentle humanity. Beautifully written and exhaustively researched, "Chas Addams: A Cartoonist's" "Life" deserves to win every literary prize there is for best biography.--Stephen B. Oates, Paul Murray Kendall Professor of Biography and Professor History Emeritus, The University of Massachusetts at Amherst
"If you don't appreciate martinis with eyeballs in them, this is not the book for you. For the rest of us here is an irresistible riot of a read, an exhilarating expertly mixed cocktail of words and images. Charles Addams's life was crowded with women-famous women, smart women, witty women, garden-variety drop-dead beautiful women-but in Linda Davis he has truly met his match." --Stacy Schiff, winner of the Pulitzer Prize for "Vera"
""Seldom have we found as satisfying a fit of subject and author as this. Linda Davis has distilled years of research, travel and interviews into a rollicking and fascinating review of Addams's astonishing life as artist, playboy and-from time to time-husband. We can all be grateful that Addams and Davis finally found one another."--Harrison Kinney,
author of "James Thurber: His Life and Times"

Depending on how you see it, I had the good fortune to celebrate my 21st birthday in Italy. While many an American young adult spend the first night of their 21st year of life blind drunk, staggering from bar to bar in an alcohol-fueled frenzy, I spent mine calmly indulging in fabulous thin-crust pizza and prosecco at La Mela with a few of my closest friends. While I have had some rather wild experiences in my time, on my 21st birthday I did not:
-drink whisky, gin, tequila or vodka
-make out with a stranger/bartender
-embarrass myself (any more than usual)
-reveal any private body parts in public
-throw up
-pass out
-wake up next morning with acidic hangover beside stranger/bartender/own vomit
I might have had more fun if it weren't for the fact that Italians don't really do cocktails.
During my first stay in Venice when I was 18 and obsessed by the fact that I could get wasted any night (or, er, morning) of the week, I asked a bartender to make me a mixed drink. He inquired as to what I wanted, and I told him to be creative. He very excitedly got out a thick book, spent the next half hour meticulously measuring things into a shaker, then presented me with a frilly glass of murky liquid. I took a sip, tried not to grimace, and thanked him, I'm sure, with an overly generous tip and many an, 'E buonissimo! Molte grazie!' and bats of the eyelashes. (He was, if not a stellar mixologist, cute, after all.)
It was in Italy, however, that I tried my first gin and tonic. At a club in Bologna one night, I sipped a friend's drink, which, up until that moment, I had considered a second-rate old-man type beverage not worthy of my hard-earned (i.e. financially aided) euros. If it didn't take the bartender half an hour of careful measuring, surely it wasn't worth drinking?
Wrong. Until that sweltering evening (during that famous 2002 European heatwave) I had never tasted anything more refreshing. Sweet, tart, bitter, and bubbly, I fell in love.
It is at a week-long music camp called Sweet's Mill, located in the sweltering Sierra Foothills, that I most appreciate g&ts. Most days are spent in the shade or pond attempting to escape the oppressive heat, and gratefully imbibing frosty beverages when the coffeehouse can be bamboozled into giving out crushed ice. Tonic seems particularly apropos in those mosquito-infested hills, perhaps due to the anti-malarial properties of quinine.
Sadly, most tonic water is made from high fructose corn syrup and can only be purchased in scary places such as Safeway (or Unsafeway, as we call it) or BevMo.Sugar-free tonic is even scarier with its artificial sweeteners, and you are pretty much SOL if you are a g&t loving diabetic.Better options have emerged in the past few years, with Stirrings and Q both bottling tasty tonics, made with sugar or agave. Unfortunately, these waters cost more than gin itself, even the good stuff, although not, interestingly, as much as HP printer ink. (Not even human blood isthat expensive.) Whole Paycheck's 365 brand makes tonic from sugar in cans, a cheaper alternative, and my favorite option if you don't have the wherewithal to make your own.
But this blogger had been pondering making her own tonic for some time.
My good friend and former co-baker at Petite Patisserie, Kelly, emailed one day saying she'd had a homemade g&t at Boot and Shoe Service in her East Bay 'hood. I excitedly asked her all about it, and she kindly forwarded a few interesting articles, and some tips on where to purchase quinine bark in the Bay Area. It seems I was not the only bojon gourmet looking for tonic action. The Food Dude of Portland wrote an absolutely hilarious article on the process several years ago. He used powdered cinchona bark, from whence quinine is derived, and the resulting syruprequired several hours of laborious straining. I wagered that using the whole bark would be a lot simpler, and, with Kelly's help, tracked some down. My intrepid friend Calvaleigh gave it a go first, and mixed us phenomenal drinks in Ashland a few weeks ago.
So I came up with the following recipe, based on Food Dude's, which, for maybe $12 worth of ingredients, made five cups of tonic concentrate, or enough for forty drinks. (Suck on those ice cubes, Q!) Cinchona bark is combined with lemongrass, citrus peel, citric acid, lemon balm and water and simmered to make a sort of tisane. It is then strained and combined with sugar and citrus juice. It should keep in the fridge for several weeks at least. Cinchona bark can be found at Duc Loi or Lhasa Karnak; citric acid is carried at Rainbow and, I believe, Berkeley Bowl.
I made some drinks with the New Amsterdam gin we happened to have in the freezer, but am looking forward to trying our local Junipero, made by the folks at Anchor Brewing, and recommended by Food Dude via the New York Times. Another local gin I'm quite fond of is No. 209, made in Napa. If glycemic indices are an issue for you, you can try making the tonic with agave syrup. You may want to reduce the amount to 3 cups, though, as it can be sweeter than sugar.
I am quite pleased (i.e. drunk) with the results, and hope you either give this a go, or at least come over sometime in the next week before we leave for Sweet's Mill for a g&t. Just don't go flirting with the bartender; she's already sown her wild cinchona (as it were).
Drink me:
Hibiscus Tequila Spritzers
Indian Summer Blues (with Cardamom, Rose and Gin)
Homemade Tonic
Adapted from The Food Dude
Makes 5 cups, or enough for 40 drinks
This makes a fairly mild, complex and citrusy tonic. I add bitters to the drinks when I mix them, but I plan to try doubling the cinchona bark next time for more bitterness and bite.
I found Mamà brand quinine bark (pictured above) at an Asian/Latin market called Duc Loi in the Mission district of San Francisco. You can also buy or order quinine (cinchona) bark from Lhasa Karnak in Berkeley. Lhasa Karnak's cinchona bark comes finely chopped, and a friend who used 3 tablespoons of it in this recipe claimed that its bitterness was much too strong (though others have claimed that it's just right!) so you may want to start with half the amount of cinchona if you use a different brand than Mamà.
2 limes
1 lemon
one package (.37 ounce) Mamà brand quinine (cinchona) bark pieces (a scant 3 tablespoons of pieces measuring about 1/2 inch square) (see headnote for sources)
1 cup chopped lemongrass (from about 3 stalks)
1/2 cup fresh lemon balm or lemon verbena leaves (optional)
6 tablespoons citric acid
4 cups water
4 cups sugar
Using a sharp knife, vegetable peeler or zester, pare off the colorful peel of the citrus fruits leaving the white pith behind. Combine the peel, bark, lemongrass, lemon balm, citric acid and water in a large stainless steel saucepan. Bring to a boil, then reduce the heat and simmer, uncovered, for 30 minutes. Strain through a fine mesh strainer (or cheesecloth, or a coffee filter if there are any fine particles that bother you.)
Rinse out the saucepan and combine the flavored water with the sugar. Bring to a simmer to dissolve the sugar, remove from the heat and add the juice from the limes and lemon. Let cool. Pour into glass bottles and store in the fridge for at least several weeks. The flavors will meld with time.
Gin and Tonic
Makes 1 drink
1 ounce (2 tablespoons) cooled tonic syrup
1 1/2 ounces (3 tablespoons) gin (such as New Amsterdam, No. 209 or Junipero)
4 drops Angostura bitters
ice cubes
sparkling water
1 – 2 lime wedges
Combine the syrup, gin and bitters in a glass. Add the ice, squeeze in the lime wedges and add them as well, and top with sparkling water. Give it a stir, and enjoy.

On one sunday night this conversation occurred:
:::scene is sunday night dinner eating our favorite meatloaf::::
hubby: did you blog this meatloaf?
me: no
hubby: why?
me: it's ugly
hubby: but its really good!
me: true
hubby: I'm willing to bet your fans don't really care what it looks like as long as it tastes good.
And so here I am with my meatloaf.
It's such a hit in the house, I'm certain you'll love it too even if it is ugly. LOL
I don't have a lot of photos as I never thought I would be posting this, but then again photos of raw meatloaf aren't that great anywho.....
I served this with roasted butternut squash chunks and roasted potato & red onion chunks.
I call this paleo as we do very little carbs these days (mostly save them for the weekends).
So without the carbs added in the meatloaf the loaf itself won't "puff up" much, it will be thin/flat and yes, ugly.
The leftovers are so good with morning eggs. So good!
my best paleo meatloaf
from vanillasugarblog.com
print recipe
loaf ingredients:
1 lb of 85% lean ground beef
2 large eggs
1/4 cup of minced small sweet onion (minced really fine--I used a grater)
salt & pepper
handful of fresh parsley, chopped
loaf topping:
3-4 TB dijon mustard
a few dashes of Worcestershire sauce
1-2 TB coarse sugar crystals
cook notes:
If you want to make a larger loaf just use 2 lbs of beef and double up all the loaf ingredients (except for the loaf toppings).
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Spray or grease up a small loaf pan, mini's work really good too.
Mix all the loaf ingredients in a bowl using your hands.
Place into a loaf in pan.
In a small bowl, mix the dijon mustard with a couple dashes of the Worcestershire sauce.
Place this mixture on fairly thick on top of meatloaf, then sprinkle with pepper, then sprinkle with the course sugar.
Place in oven and bake about 20-35 minutes? Or until done. Sorry can't remember how long I baked this; I just watch for doneness, which I think was at the 30-minute mark? It bakes up quick as there are no fillers.

Looks delicious to me!ReplyDelete
How is it always the ugliest food that's the most delicious?! Sometimes I refuse to blog it if it's too unphotogenic and the.boy always thinks I'm crazy!ReplyDelete
I think it's gorgeous! You hear me beautiful little meatloaf? You are a beauty!ReplyDelete
My manservant would love to be in your house. He doesn't want to eat any carbs but I still use them, way too much!ReplyDelete
This sounds great! Love that it's low carb. I save my carbs for dessert. Minis sound perfect and if I only blogged things that were gorgeous, my blog would have like two recipes. Taste is what counts!ReplyDelete
meatloaf is never pretty but i really do love it! yum!ReplyDelete
The Russians have something similar to meatloaf that they fry up in breaded patties. They call it "katlet vit dzyose" (aka cutlet with sauce). Not the prettiest either.ReplyDelete
Meatloaf is not the prettiest dish and yours looks just delicious!
I love the idea of coarse sugar crystals in the sauce.
And leftovers for breakfast w eggs is such an awesome breakfast idea. xo
It's true - I don't care what it looks like, as long as it tastes great!ReplyDelete
Sometimes the ugly food are the tastiest! Love the short ingredient list here. I'm glad you shared the recipe with us!ReplyDelete

Operating an ecommerce store without conversion testing is like running blind.
In this article we're going to cover what conversion testing is, why it's important for online store owners, and give you nine popular tests you can start running on your store today.
What Is Conversion Testing?Simply put, conversion testing is the process of testing various elements on your website to ensure maximum conversion rates.
Why Is Conversion Testing Important for Online Stores?Without conversion testing you're making important decisions based on intuition, instead of fact. There are countless case studies that show how a minor change resulted in x% increase in sales. Conversion testing is all about optimization. You make small changes, measure the results, rinse and repeat. Monetate put together a diagram that shows the most popular tests:
9 Elements You Need to Conversion TestOne of the biggest challenges with conversion testing is figuring out what to test. Here's a list of nine elements every ecommerce store owner should conversion test. Use this list as a starting point, and remember there are plenty of other elements to test - this list is just a good place to start.
1. Front PageBegin by looking at your front page. Most potential customers land on your front page first, so it's vitally important to optimize the heck out of it. What is the first thing a visitor sees? Which product (s) do you feature? How strong are your call-to-actions? Should you feature seasonal sales? Showcase free shipping? There is no right or wrong answer to these questions - the point is to make changes, measure the results, and optimize.
2. Color SchemeThis element might not seem like an important consideration at first glance, but you might be surprised how colors affect an action online. KISSmetrics ran a study on how people reacted to the various colors of call-to-action buttons. Color made a huge difference.
3. NavigationWhat is at the top of your ecommerce site should naturally field a visitor to the basic actions they will likely want to make. You should know what customers in your specific vertical are looking for. Shopify store Good As Gold has chosen to put a heavy emphasis on mens and womens clothing, brand search, and their blog. You'll notice they put less emphasis on their Lookbook, shipping policy, about page, and contact form.
4. WishlistsOne thing I personally get peeved about is the lack of a wishlist or save for later feature. If I happen to come across a product I'm interested in, but really just want to save the item for later because maybe it's a high ticket item or because I am intending to buy it as a birthday gift in a few weeks, then the "save for later" feature is a must.
5. Available Payment MethodsNot every online store accepts all forms of payment, so it's generally good practice to display the methods of payment you accept. Most ecommerce store owners know that it's a good idea to put credit card icons on their product page, but where else should they go? How big should they be? Which ones should you include? Shopify store Gatorade UK chose to put five payment icons on their homepage, not just their product pages:
6. Phone NumberIn a recent article here on the Shopify Blog, an author made a case for merchants to stop offering telephone support. He stopped advertising his 1-800 number and reduced his workload by 50%. He took the savings, both in terms of time and money, and put it to improving his site.
7. SecurityIt wasn't that long ago when online shopping was considered an unsafe activity and many consumers shied away from it. However trust and reliability has gained foothold and now online shopping is no longer consider an unsafe activity. Or is it? Fact is, some segments of the population still consider placing a web order something to be quite cautious about, and will think twice before entering sensitive information on an unknown website.
8. Return PolicyIt goes without saying that you should have a return policy, but how exactly should it be drafted? Furthermore, where and how should it be displayed on your ecommerce store? Try displaying your warranty or money-back guarantee in various locations and see what works best for you. If you need help creating a return policy, check this out.
9. Social MediaA lot of online stores let their customers share their purchases via social media. Test social media buttons on your site and see how it works, what it does, where it directs a visitor and what a potential visitor sees. Does it flow well, does it lead the visitor where you want them led, and do they increase awareness and sales? Here is an example from Shopify store Violent Lips.
ConclusionHopefully this article has given you a good understanding of what conversion testing is, along with a few good starting points for ecommerce store owners. We're going to be digging deeper into conversion testing on the Shopify blog soon. In the meantime, to learn more, I recommend Crazy Egg's blog The Daily Egg which posts great articles on conversion optimization.

Great post Mark! Really like the Kiss Metrics Color scheme layout – and the "want" button… makes it so much easier to shop online.

Thanks for the shout out for The Daily Egg! This was a great article Mark. Thank you for writing it!
October 23 2012, 10:42AM
Really handy, thanks for this. I need to start conversion testing.. just didnt really know where to start.
October 23 2012, 11:14AM
Nice article! Well researched and timely.
There is also a comprehensive guide available on our site written by Adam Bonnifield of spinnakr.com. He's a conversion optimization consultant turned startup co-founder and went through the last 500 startups batch.
He has a great step by step process that incorporates a lot of the element mentioned in this article in an interactive task list format. His starup is working towards conversion optimization triggers that dynamic based on the traffic source of the visitor. (ie. if the visitor comes from angel list, your CTA can be something completely different than a visitor coming from CPC.
Cool stuff. His guide is here: http://www.startupplays.com/plays/conversion_optimization_for_startups
October 23 2012, 02:32PM
Great post, Missy! I really need to pay more attention to this type of stuff.
October 23 2012, 03:20PM
Glad you like my article, Angie. Thanks for stopping by an also sharing it on Google Plus.
October 23 2012, 07:34PM
You should also include, in the part about phone numbers, that a great way to test offline conversions is to use different call tracking numbers on your test pages. Some businesses are VERY phone oriented, and need this additional point in their testing. At LogMyCalls.com, we have several case studies supporting this.
October 23 2012, 07:41PM
I too thought it was a most interesting post on a topic that all sellers should pay more attention too.
October 23 2012, 09:16PM
Brilliant article, Missy! I particularly like the info about the colors and what they're associated with. I'm going to be thinking about that with every download, submit, add to cart, and buy button moving forward :).

I love to have a Shopify Appfor Convert.com's A/B testing software… just have to find a developer…anyone interested? I love to show how Shopify Users can optimize for sales and revenue.
October 24 2012, 07:48PM
Thanks for highlighting security here. A user's sense of confidence and trust in the merchant can be greatly improved by strategic placement of security badges on checkout pages, and assurance throughout the process that all information is stored safely.

Information for Patients
Dislocations are joint injuries that force the ends of your bones out of position. The cause is often a fall or a blow, sometimes from playing a contact sport. You can dislocate your ankles, knees, shoulders, hips, elbows and jaw. You can also dislocate your finger and toe joints. Dislocated joints often are swollen, very painful and visibly out of place. You may not be able to move it.
A dislocated joint is an emergency. If you have one, seek medical attention. Treatment depends on which joint you dislocate and the severity of the injury. It might include manipulations to reposition your bones, medicine, a splint or sling, and rehabilitation. When properly repositioned, a joint will usually function and move normally again in a few weeks. Once you dislocate a shoulder or kneecap, you are more likely to dislocate it again. Wearing protective gear during sports may help prevent dislocations.

Neck Injuries and Disorders
Any part of your neck - muscles, bones, joints, tendons, ligaments, or nerves - can cause neck problems. Neck pain is very common. Pain may also come from your shoulder, jaw, head, or upper arms.
Muscle strain or tension often causes neck pain. The problem is usually overuse, such as from sitting at a computer for too long. Sometimes you can strain your neck muscles from sleeping in an awkward position or overdoing it during exercise. Falls or accidents, including car accidents, are another common cause of neck pain. Whiplash, a soft tissue injury to the neck, is also called neck sprain or strain.
Treatment depends on the cause, but may include applying ice, taking pain relievers, getting physical therapy or wearing a cervical collar. You rarely need surgery.

First, there is a sweetie girl's 2nd birthday! She was one of our dear friend's daughter. A 4" chocolate cake for the little cutie decorated with fondant. Makes it looks like a mushroom and a little cute bear for her to keep..:)
Does it looks like "Papa Smurf"'s house?...LOL
There was suppose to have a small chimney on top but due to the box I have, which was not tall enough to store the cake so the idea of the chimney was out. By the way, the little girl only attracted by the candle "2" that placed on the cake...haha! My friend said she even doesn't want her present given by her daddy...haha! She's too young to know what is happening...;p
Well, simple as it is. It only took me 1 hour to bake and another hour to decorate. As you can see it was really simple but the other older kids went "Ooo & Ahh" when they see the cake. I was quite satisfied with it..:D
For the recipe of the moist chocolate cake, you can refer to my older post here. I baked it with 2x 4" round pan and a round 5" bowl for the mushroom top.
Happy Birthday dear sweetie!!
Another cake, a tiramisu. Yeah, you'll probably say "HUH...tiramisu again"!!..hehe! This was requested by the birthday gal herself. But too bad due to the limited time (but I was lazy actually...haha!) there was no almond caramel that she wish to have..."OPPS!! Sorry dear friend, but I promised to make her some caramel when I have the time..:)
I stole the idea of our dear friend Bee Bee (Honeybeesweets) on how to display the cake. Well, I just don't want the same old recipe to look so boring..;p
p/s: Bee Bee, thank you for sharing the idea but my work was far too lousy compare to yours. Somehow I took the challenge and praised myself abit for the result..haha!
Please refer here for the recipe if you like...:) See the result here, it seems rather rough but we did enjoy it. Maybe most of us love alcohol and coffee, so that the cake was half gone in few minutes..;p We had a great time and I wish there'll be more gatherings coming soon.
Happy Belated Birthday my dear friend, wishing all the best in everything and healthy always..:)

Digital Scrapbooking Inspiration – April 2007
Lovely "Happy Easter" layout by Rosana B., Brazil
In the Groove
Ahhhhh…spring! Isn't it simply marvelous? The grass is showing again, children are playing outside, the rains are cleaning away the snow and grime from winter, you even feel like doing some spring cleaning. Well, maybe not always! But it's a great time to go through those digital photos you've been meaning to do something with, and "spring clean" your hard drive by scrapping! While you're at it, why not make a layout that celebrates the freshness, life and hope of the spring season by entering our "Spring into Spring" layout contest – see details below. Happy Scrapping and Happy Spring!
Feel the rain fall softly on your face. Stop and smell a budding flower. Enjoy pastels, greenery, and blossoming colors. Discover the worms, ladybugs, and other earthy creatures that crawl innocently around the garden. It's springtime!
There's something magical in the air at this time of year. It's a time of birth, growth, renewal, change, hope, and fresh starts. There's a sense of dusting off the hibernation blues, and taking a deep breath of outside refreshment. Nature sure has a way of encouraging us to appreciate the 'little' things in life.
I have this vivid memory of the beginning of a certain spring in my childhood. I begged to play outside until my mother gave in. The outdoors was beckoning me. I wanted to feel that fresh breeze on my skin, smell the aroma of new plant life, and explore the grass, buds, and puddles. I remember putting on pink rubber boots decorated with strawberries. Being outside without a heavy coat – I felt so free! I enjoyed the sound of birds and rustling trees as only children waking from winter "hibernation" can. When I sat on the edge of my soggy and neglected sandbox, I had a thought that surprised me. At such a young age, I actually said to myself, "this is the season of hope." And I was right.

Scrapper Profile
Meet Nicole N.– a fabulous scrapper, and a talented designer featured in the Scrapbook MAX! Booster Pack Store. She also has a great sense of humor (check out her joke at the end of the profile, tee-hee!)
Q-Tell us one thing about yourself that others are often surprised to learn.A- I'm claustrophobic. My husband bought a camper, only to find out that I would not sleep on the top bunk with him. He had to sleep up there with Shelby while I slept on the couch!
Q- What made you interested in digital scrapbooking?
A- I started out like most people do-with the freebies available on the internet. I liked the idea of being able to make beautiful layouts without all the clutter in my already full scrapbooking cabinet.
Q- Tell us about your favorite feature of Scrapbook MAX!.
A-I love being able to change the colors of the elements. You can get so many different looks from one embellishment. With this feature you can also use embellishments from several different kits & just change the colors so that they all match. (Hint: Right-click on your object, and choose Effects > Advanced to get to the Adjust Color option!)
Q- What tip would you share with a newbie to Scrapbook MAX!?
A- Play around with it ALOT! There are so many great features in the program that it takes a little while to see them all.
Q- How would you describe your scrapbooking style?
A – "Simple." I love the look of the really fancy layouts, but I always find myself going back to the simple styles.
Q- Heard any good (clean) jokes lately? Please share!
A- Imagine this: Famous Olympic skier Picabo Street (pronounced Peek-A-Boo) is working at the Intensive Care Unit of a large metropolitan hospital. She is not
permitted to answer the hospital telephones. It causes too much confusion when she answers the phone and says, "Picabo, ICU".
Check out some of Nicole's favorite layouts:
Gingerbread House, Adorable Shelby, My Little Pirate, Me and My Dad

1st Place Winner!
"Cor Blimey Grandma!" by skiptothesue

Wow 'em with Overlays! An overlay lies on top of your layout in a complementary way – it might give you a grungy texture, or an interesting semi-transparent design. No matter what, it gives your LO an extra punch of character! Scrapbook MAX! comes with a number of overlays – find them in the various embellishment kits.
"Birthday Page" without Overlay and "Birthday Page" with a "grungy"Overlay
Bring your page to life – literally! By scattering ladybugs, ants, or other little critters across your LO, you might actually believe they are crawling all over the page!
"Summer Picnic" By Deanne G., Estee B. and Lori K. and "Ladybug"Layout By Wendy S. Rome, Italy
Next Month in The Groove
The Groove celebrates Mother's Day! Plus – look for April's "Spring into Spring" contest winners!

Left 4 Dead 2 Demo AMD and NVIDIA Graphics Performance
More zombies!!!
Chances are most of you have played it and enjoyed it and are excited about the fun that will come when the second installment is available in mid-November. I thought since we had some early access to the game I would provide some quick performance results for Left 4 Dead 2 with a handful of graphics cards for those interested.
Yes, there really is a zombie getting a piggy-back ride here.
"First down!"
These are the settings we tested at (oops, we actually ran at 16x AF!) in the benchmarks below.
One testing note for curious gamers: there seemed to be a bug with AMD's drivers that disabled AA if you changed resolutions inside the game even though it still showed up as being enabled. It was obvious to me while playing that this was happening - a simple exit and re-entry into the game fixed the AA issue and hopefully AMD will address the bug in their next driver release.
Closing Thoughts
This was really just a quick run through of Left 4 Dead 2 with the latest cards from NVIDIA and AMD: not much to really evaluate here. If you are like most people and have a monitor that runs at 1920x1200 or 1920x1080 then obviously you are going to be able to play L4D2 without any issue using the lowest end cards tested here that will start at about $130. If you are one of the lucky few that owns a 30" monitor and can play at 2560x1600 then you'll need to step a little for the best experience but you should not HAVE to pay more than $250 or so for the privilege.
Of course, if you are one of those interested in doing some Eyefinity multi-monitor gaming then you might want to fork out the dough for the Radeon HD 5870. Speaking of which, I think I have some more "testing" to do...

What is a Learning Studio?
- incredibly flexible space that can effectively support instructor-led classroom activities and also promote more informal, student-initiated learning activities.
- wireless and laptop-based.
- may be configured in traditional rows of tables and chairs for formal presentations, however, students can easily rearrange the mobile, light-weight tables and chairs into collaborative configurations for any sized group.
- perfect for problem-based learning and multi-modal instruction.
- open when the library is open, and students may use the space and the technology whenever it is not scheduled.
- Learning Studios must be scheduled at least 48 hours in advance.
- These facilities are not open for full-semester class scheduling. Instructors interested in hosting an individual class session or groups interested in the functionality of these learning studios should submit a request through our scheduling request form:
- Instructors should also contact their subject librarian to schedule course-integrated information literacy instruction in the Learning Studio.
