Not-Too-Virtuous Salad with Caramelized Apple Vinaigrette
Author Notes: Normally I pass over any dressing that requires anything more than a bowl and a whisk, but this dressing is well worth the extra dishes. Acidic, sweet, salty, crunchy, decadent, fresh- this salad hits all of the notes! I love how the acidic sweetness of the dressing complements the savory saltiness of the bacon. Pair the clean fresh flavors of the fennel and celery root with a combination of bitter and substantial greens and you will not be sorry you made the effort. This would be fantastic with duck or a big wedge of stinky cheese and served as an entree. - wanderash - wanderash
Food52 Review: Wanderash is right -- this salad isn't wimpy or chaste, with its sultry, thyme-laced caramel apple dressing and bacony chew. But for every lardon, there's a crunchy hit of celery root, a shard of fennel and tart apple, and by the time you've emptied your bowl, you're sated and happy and have forgotten the chill of the outside world. The dressing recipe makes much more than you need, but you won't mind. Make more salad or warm it gently to drizzle over a pork chop or duck breast. - A&M - A&M
Serves 4-6
For the salad:
- 4 handfuls mixed greens, about 6 oz.
- 1/4 celery root, peeled and very thinly sliced or cut into matchsticks
- 1 fennel bulb, very thinly sliced
- 3/4 cups pecans, toasted
- 5 slices lardons or thick cut bacon, cut into lardons
- 1 tart apple, thinly sliced into half moons
- In a heavy skillet cook lardons over moderate heat. Stir occasionally until crispy on all sides and reserve on a paper towel to drain fat.
- Place all of the salad ingredients in a large bowl. Pour 1/4 of the dressing over the salad and toss well.
- Taste a piece of lettuce and add more dressing depending on your preference.
Caramelized Apple Vinaigrette
- 2 ounces brown sugar
- 3 ounces plus 1 ounce apple cider vinegar
- 1 clove garlic, minced
- 1 gala apple, peeled, cored and medium diced
- 1 lemon
- 4 ounces olive oil
- 2 ounces canola oil
- 1 teaspoon fresh thyme
- salt
- In a small skillet over medium heat add 3 ounces vinegar and the sugar. Let it reduce until the color turns a dark caramel color and begins to thicken. You will start to see big foamy bubbles on the surface.
- Add the apples and garlic and sauté until the apples are cooked through, about 5 minutes. Stir occasionally.
- Remove from heat and put in the blender with 1 ounce of vinegar, thyme, juice of ½ lemon and a pinch of salt. Woosh until blended, then slowly add the oil. Blend until the dressing is emulsified. Taste and season with salt and perhaps a splash more vinegar.

This fantabulous recipe, which someone posted on Pinterest, is what led me to find Food52. As a newbie to Food52 I am grateful for the virtual trail of crumbs that led me to both this delicious salad recipe (it has been a three time hit at our house) and this delicious, as in intriguing, website. Thanks!

I just served this at a dinner party and everyone raved about the flavors. An extremely well composed salad. I accidentally left the skins of the apple (meant for the dressing) on, but as far as I could tell it just dyed the dressing a bit more red. Delicious! I will definitely make this again for Christmas dinner.

Delicious salad and fantastic dressing, but is it supposed to be the consistency of applesauce or should I have thinned it?

I had that issue too once- when I ran out of oil. Don't skimp on the oil!

I know Mr. Sifton says salad doesn't belong on a Thanksgiving table, but this one is going on mine. The dressing is deeeevine and the celery and fennel are genius and a the perfect balance for the sweet potato casserole with marshmellows. Btw, I use roasted hazelnuts instead of pecans and they are goooooood! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

I made this truly delicious vinaigrette for my Thanksgiving guests. The salad consisted of bitter and sweet greens, some gorgonzola cheese crumbles, fennel slices and thin raw turnip rounds. Thank you so much for this recipe! Right up there with the best of Food52 winners! I will use it again and again.

This is by far one of my favorite salads. It's perfect cold weather comfort. The dressing is fantastic and I find celery works perfectly when I don't have celery root in the house. Thanks for the recipe.
over 1 year ago Robin22
At first the dressing seemed a bit labour intensive but it's really so easy, and SOOO worth it. We subbed in toasted almonds and sauteed tofu for the pecans and bacon and it was a total hit!

Wow, I failed miserably at pulling off the vinaigrette. Not sure what happened, but i don't think I'll waste the ingredients trying again. I'll just settle for remaining intrigued by what could have been :)

I finally made this Salad and my -oh -my , it's DIVINE. The dressing is out of this world, will definitely make it again sooooon.
about 2 years ago Chicago Girl
This was a huge hit at my house. My husband practically shoveled it down with me as a close second. My two daughters (8 & 10) did well with it the only exception being the celery root, odd because one of them loves celery and they both like raw fennel thanks to my Italian sister-in-law. The deal maker is the dressing, absolutely divine.
over 2 years ago EatDrinkLyon
The dressing is amazing! Yes, a bit of a faff but totally worth it, and there's leftovers today (only two of us). I actually used roquefort and bacon and it went perfectly. Totally yum. Will def make again. Thanks!
over 2 years ago Auntie M & M
Made this for a Super Bowl party. Very well received. To lighten the dressing I substituted an ounce of water for the same amount of olive oil. Turned many on the food52. I did not know that there is any one in this world that does not know about food 52;). Keep the great recipes coming.
over 2 years ago AnneMP
This dressing was a little too vinegary for me but otherwise the flavors were amazing! Maybe next time I will add more oil/less vinegar to balance, thanks!!
over 2 years ago wanderash
Perhaps try using a bit more sugar in the begining, that might give it the flavor you are looking for.

I haven't tested it out, but I would guess you are def. safe with a week.

Wanderash, seriously, you should bottle and sell this dressing. It's one of the most delicious dressings I've ever tasted. It's so good, and works brilliantly with so many kinds of salads. Really. Congrats!! ;o)

text: 4.5 A good case with a solid look KoinaDonner | 23/07/2010 | See all KoinaDonner's reviews (2) The case comes in a slightly excessive packaging design but otherwise reasonably unremarkable. The actual case itself however feels very solid and well made and has a nice feel to the touch.There is even a nice design in the "inside" of the case which is fabric which you cannot see in the picture - although you won't often see it as your iPod will cover the inside, its a nice touch and makes it feel high quality.It fits my iPod (160GB new Classic in black) and looks great. Its very slimline and doesn't add a lot of bulk to the iPod, and has a cover over the screen. The wheel is left uncovered which I much prefer as have had bad experiences with cases which cover the wheel (always doesn't feel quite right to me).Access is left for the dock at the bottom, and headphones and hold switch at the top. The iPod will still fit in most docks (fits in a Creative iTrigue my wife has) with no problems even leaving the case on. I have also left it on in the car with an FM radio transmitter thing and an in-car charger with no problems.Overall I would say this is a very nice and stylish case, it has a nice quality appearance and feel, and offers a nice "business" respectable look for the user.

(SOURCE: Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology, news release, Nov. 16, 2012)
MONDAY, Nov. 26 (HealthDay News) -- Parents who dread visiting the dentist should keep their anxiety to themselves to avoid passing their fear on to their children, a new study suggests. Spanish researchers looked at 183 children, aged 7 to 12, and their families. The greater the level of dentist fear or anxiety in one family member, the higher the level in the rest of the family, they found. The investigators also found that the father's feelings about going to the dentist play a key role in whether a mother's fear of the dentist will be passed on to their children, according to the team at the Rey Juan Carlos University of Madrid. "Although the results should be interpreted with due caution, children seem to mainly pay attention to the emotional reactions of the fathers when deciding if situations at the dentist are potentially stressful," study co-author America Lara-Sacido said in a news release from the Spanish Foundation for Science and Technology. The findings show the need to involve parents -- especially fathers -- in efforts to prevent children from being afraid of dentists, and the need to get fathers to make regular dental visits and show no signs of fear or anxiety, the researchers suggested. "With regard to assistance in the dental clinic, the work with parents is key," Lara-Sacido said. "They should appear relaxed as a way of directly ensuring that the child is relaxed too." The study was published in a recent issue of the International Journal of Paediatric Dentistry. More information The Nemours Foundation has more about children and dental care.

Medulloblastoma is a type of brain tumor. A brain tumor begins when normal cells in the brain change and grow uncontrollably, forming a mass. A tumor can be benign (noncancerous) or malignant (cancerous, meaning it can spread to other parts of the body). Medulloblastoma is a malignant tumor.
The brain and spinal column make up the central nervous system (CNS), where all vital functions are controlled, including thought, speech, and body strength. Medulloblastoma begins in granular cells in the cerebellum (back of the brain). This is the part of the brain that controls body movement and coordination.

Tony Bennett and Lady Gaga have unveiled the video for their duet of 1930's classic The Lady Is A Tramp.
Speaking of his collaboration with Lady Gaga, the fifteen-time grammy award winner said, "I think she's going to become as big as Elvis Presley. She's absolutely brilliant with what she does. She's a very, very magnificent performer and she does know how to sing, and she does know how to play the piano. I see great things for her. She's the biggest. I'll tell you, I never met anyone with more talent than that lady."
The track is taken from Bennett's Duets II album which has seen him collaborate with a number of stars including Michael Buble, Mariah Carey, John Mayer and Carrie Underwood. Released to celebrate his 80th birthday this year, the album also features his duet with Amy Winehouse, marking the singer's final recording before her death in July this year.

2010-06-02: On Monday, 17.5.10 (9:00-13:00), in the context of the International Museum Day celebration (IMD), the educational programme «Let's weave!» was held at the Silk Museum, in Soufli (Thrace), with great success.Lasting approximately 1h15΄, the programme's objective was to offer an experiential approach to technical culture processes and encourage the coexistence of different age groups in the Museum, as this year's theme for the IMD celebration was «Museums for Social Harmony». The programme was targeted at groups of schoolchildren attending the last three classes of Primary School and included a brief (Power Point) presentation of weaving through the ages, touching and then examining different types of natural yarn through a microscope, spinning koukoulariko thread (i.e. from damaged cocoons) with a spindle, making a woven piece of textile on a weaving frame and a weaving demonstration on the Museum's loom by a craftswoman of Soufli. An assessment was carried out at the end of the programme using questionnaires (for the children and the teaching staff).
more picturesAn adapted version of the programme was proposed for children attending Nursery School: the assembly of a large-scale puzzle picturing a woman of Soufli was the starting point of a discussion held with the children on local costume as a product of weaving. Following this, the children had the opportunity to observe the exhibits of the showcases featuring local dress and, finally, to create a costume of their own inspiration using a mixed technique (drawing and collage with fabrics and coloured paper).The programme was attended by a total of 146 schoolchildren from the region (1st Primary School of Soufli, 2nd Primary School of Soufli, 1st Primary School of Amorio Didymoteichou, 1st Nursery School of Soufli).
A booklet for the Silk Museum's educational programme "Let's weave" is available, in digital form, you can consult the material online here. (In greek).

Germ – Loss EP
Saturday, October 13th, 2012Genre: Atmospheric, Black Metal, Rock, Pop
Label: Eisenwald
This is going to sound horrible right off the bat but please, just give it a few seconds to sink in; What if someone took the might and savagery out of Thrall, replaced it with something resembling a metallic version of Coldplay and managed to keep the wicked black metal edge to most of it? If any of you are left after that (including you, Tim), the answer is easily one of the most unique musical experiences I've had since starting the reviewing game all of those years ago!
There is a metric TON of genre melding going on within these six tracks. Everything from relatively simple, yet catchy hard rock riffs to clean vocals and synthy pop keys to banshee wailing and back again can be heard in right here in this EP. It might be a tad overwhelming or just considered aimless to some folks, but I found it to be morbidly captivating. I kept finding myself thinking the same thing over and over again, "This shouldn't be." Meaning, these musical elements should never of been mixed! Germ's sole member… (get ready for it) Germ, is toying with the very essence of what makes popular music popular and metal music that which must live underground! He's taking those irrefutable elements and making them his own personal soundboard, not to mention, taking a gigantic risk with the possibility of alienating his audiences… and I absolutely LOVE that.
If there was one thing that I had to gripe about, it's the oldie but goodie "length" complaint. This EP was too damned short! How dare you tease me with such a brilliant yet stingy offering! Damn you Germ!
Overall: Taking a risk on Loss is nowhere near the risk that was taken to bring it to you! Loss is a one of a kind outing that will leave you wondering what the future holds for Germ, metal and music as a whole.

hey, hey it's headboard day
tracy's pax headboard
"our grand headboard is actually 2 pax wardrobe doors that we turned on their sides and air-nailed to the wall," she lets us in on the secret. "we were lucky enough to find the doors at a second hand store, but even bought new it's a cheaper alternative to any headboard i've ever seen." the curlies above the board add a nice touch.
melissa's surreal headboard
this may be the closest thing to painting a mural. a definite maybe. i just got to find the right picture that i can wake up to every morning.
melissa tells us how:
"i uploaded a photo i took of Central Park to www.blockposters.com. downloaded and printed the resulting pdf.
mounted the mural with krylon repositionable spray adhesive so that it can be removed from the walls of my rental.
hung a ikea lill curtain with the dignitet curtain ring with clip to some silver metallic pushpins hammered directly into the wall. then, simply enjoy my new room with a view!
shane's padded malm headboard
shane liked the malm but wanted a headboard that was taller and padded so he could sit in bed to read or work on his laptop.
as a result he also had to reposition the bedside tables.
see more of shane's padded malm headboard on his blog or flickr photoset with notes.
miguel's recycled vika headboard
miguel took an old vika amon table top and hung it horizontally as a headboard for his bed.
no fuss. pretty clean. see more of miguel's headboard.

I'm happy to see these hacks, as I've been hoping to make an inexpensive headboard.
Anybody interested in making a giant image, like Melissa, should visit homokaasu.org. It's a lot like blockposters, but it has a downloadable program for use on your computer. That might allow you to use a larger file and have better resolution. The gallery is a lot of fun.
Tracy's pax headboard is nice, too. I might see if I can find an old hollow door and use that, instead. I think you can find them for $30 or so.
Keep up the good work! Great ideas, guys. I had started by looking at some DIYs for tufted headboards and gotten overwhelmed. You've found some creative solutions that aren't nearly as intimidating.- AnonymousJanuary 26, 2009 3:35 PM

...which starts a chain recation
No doubt propagated by errant spiraling vortices of magnetic flucks.
Actually that last post was one of the more coherent...
...which starts a chain recation
Hill and his team, working at the University of Nottingham in England, used a powerful superconducting magnet to produce a magnetic field of approximately 16 Tesla, nearly 350,000 times stronger than the strength of the Earth's field. Operating at ultralow temperatures, superconductors offer no electrical resistance and, key to this experiment, they expel magnetic fields, which means they repel magnets. This repulsion can be stronger than the force of gravity, which leads to levitation.
The magnet created what's known as a diamagnetic force, which can be large enough to balance the force of gravity, lifting the Drosophila melanogaster flies and suspending them midair. Diamagnetic materials, such as water, are pushed away by magnetic fields, so a powerful magnetic field can hold up small organisms like flies and frogs because they're mostly made up of water.

Galactic magnetism may influence star birth
Given how much astronomers know about the cosmos, it might be surprising to learn how little they know about a basic process like star formation. A Nature paper published online November 16 makes some headway into how it works, suggesting that the host galaxy's magnetic fields play a significant role.
In particular, the authors studied one of the Milky Way's neighbors, the Pinwheel Galaxy (M33). Its nearly perfect face-on orientation provides an ideal target to watch the formation of molecular clouds, which act as stellar factories. The paper reports that six such clouds have magnetic fields in alignment with the Pinwheel's spiral arms, making it likely that the galaxy's overall magnetism works to anchor the clouds, affecting their distribution and the efficiency of star formation.
This finding is in contrast to other theories of cloud formation, which suggest that a cloud's internal turbulence and motion would be enough to overpower the galactic magnetic field. --Bill Andrews; Astronomy Magazine; March 2012.
Charge is generated in circuit, magnetic induction reverberates, current flows…
" ""Its magnetic field [of Sun] is at less than half strength compared to the minimum of 22 years ago." Well, that doesn't make any sense. You can't compare one minimum to another. They must mean it is at half strength compared to some maximum. But it doesn't matter, since the magnetism won't tell us anything here anyway. The charge field we are passing through may be less magnetic than normal, but still have the same charge density. Magnetism just tells us how the [photons] are spinning, not how many of them there are."
Update: Geomagnetic activity intensified even more on Feb. 15th when the interplanetary magnetic field (IMF) near Earth tilted south, opening a crack in Earth's magnetic field. Solar wind poured in and fueled a G1-class geomagnetic storm, now subsiding.

C-14: Absurd range- how high would the muzzle velocity have to be? |

C-14: Absurd range- how high would the muzzle velocity have to be?
I've been debating various Sci-Fi vs debates for a while now and I've decided to try and figure out how powerful the C-14 Gauss assault rifle from StarCraft needs to be in order to achieve the following feat:
The standard issue C-14 Gauss rifle fires 8mm DU spikes with a fairly aerodynamic shape (narrow rounded tip and slightly rounded rear) that is either 5cm or 6.4cm long. It is neosteel tipped so I'd assume that's how it avoids getting vaporized by the friction, neosteel being a super hard future alloy. The projectile mass should be somewhere between 43 and 66 grams. Assuming earthlike gravity and atmospheric pressure (it is an inhabited planet), ignoring the winds from the vortex and assuming the Marines were firing at a perfect 90 degrees angle, what would be the minimal muzzle velocity of a C-14 spike to reach 55.56km straight up? |

I presume Simon means a lower bound. You can do it by equating the kinetic energy at the muzzle with the gravitational potential energy at the target height - (1/2)mv2=mgh. Back of the envelope, that's about 1km/s. Since that's about Mach 3, air resistance is in no way negligible, so the real answer is a lot higher (note that Wikipedia gives a muzzle velocity for the M16 of 948m/s and an effective range of about 800m). Serious aerodynamic knowledge is needed to give an accurate answer to your question.

C-14: Absurd range- how high would the muzzle velocity have to be?Also that would have the shards almost at rest when they hit the fighter - raising a "bright corona" off the shields. So - y'know, we cannot actually answer the question without knowing how strong the shields are... that would provide the upper bound. Did the marines expect to have some effect at that range? |

Problem is, I haven't learned how to solve equations where the variable is dependent on itself yet so I can't solve the problem at hand... |
Nov12-12, 10:48 PM | #6 |
Homework Help |
... but... I gave you a bunch of links... which variable depends on itself?
The projectile starts out with speed v, it gets to height h, decelerating all the while at rate g. At h, it's speed is zero. the v-t graph is, therefore, a triangle - with height v and base T, neither of which we know. The slope of the v-t graph is the acceleration (g) which we know, and the area of the triangle is the height (h) which we know. 2 equations, 2 unknowns. You do it - builds character. |

By the way, isn't the Wraith a single seat fighter/bomber? An F15E is about 20m long. 55,000m away, that has an angular size of about 0.02 degrees. For comparison, the 10-ring on a 10m olympic air rifle range has an angular size of 0.002 degrees. Scoring any hits at all on the Wraith under perfect conditions would be competition-quality shooting. These guys are getting hits in combat in a storm. I know very little about firearms, but I have my doubts about the quality of technical thought that went into this passage.
Also, I know marines are stereotypically dumb, but shooting at a vertically descending target that is right above you? Is that wise? |

I have a weak spot for hypersonic objects flying through the atmosphere (), so I tried adapting a calculation sheet I made several years ago to try and estimate the projectile range of a railgun. According to this StarCraft Wiki reference, the C-14 Gauss rifle fire hypersonic rounds, so that's a good starting point.
Basically I model the projectile as a sphere, and using a basic aerodynamic drag model (F.d = 1/2*rho*v*A*C.d) and equations describing air density as a function of altitude (and gravity as a function of altitude although it is a smaller effect), I numerically solve for the trajectory. I've attached the sheet printout in case anyone is curious what it looks like. Note: I'm not sure the drag equation I used is valid for hypersonic speeds, oh well. From what I can tell from the sheet (unless there's a glaring error), a launch speed of around mach 3 (~33 kJ muzzle energy, about 65% more than a .50 BMG) would get you to a maximum altitude of about 50km, but that leaves no kinetic energy left over to do any damage. A launch speed of mach 4 (~60kJ muzzle energy, 3x that of a .50 BMG) gives a kinetic energy of around 25 kJ (about 25% higher than a .50 BMG's initial muzzle energy) at 50 KM altitude, which I would say is a pretty good hit but maybe not enough to damage heavy armor. Basically, the kind of muzzle energy you're looking at really doesn't seem like a shoulder-fired weapon to me, maybe a vehicle-mounted weapon? |
Nov13-12, 10:58 PM | #10 |
I don't understand. You're saying an M16 shooting straight up (muzzle velocity about Mach 3) will go 30 miles up before falling back?

I haven't checked the arithmetic, but you have the same wrong formula on page 3 of your PDF attachment. |
Nov14-12, 10:07 AM | #14 |
Edit- Well, I tried updating the equation in the calculation sheet, but now the ODE solver isn't converging to a solution. I'll have to troubleshoot the problem later on and see what I can do, I'm guessing I might need to tweak the initial conditions of the solve. |

In one dimension using v * abs(v) should give you the right sign for the force. In 2D, ##v^2 = v_x^2 + v_y^2## and you have to resolve the force into the x and y components. |

The Bills paid a $1 million bonus this season to Merriman already. Merriman has been plagued with injuries since joining the Bills. He was out of practice with a tight hamstring, but had told reporters he was fine.
Merriman considered this year as the best chance to revive his career after season-ending surgery in November to repair a partially torn right Achilles tendon. It's an injury that had nagged him for much of the previous two seasons.
The seventh-year player was entering his third season in Buffalo after the Bills claimed him off waivers after Merriman was cut by San Diego in November 2010.
At his peak, Merriman was regarded as one of the league's top pass-rushers, and earned the nickname "Lights Out."
Merriman has tweeted the following: I want to say Thanks to the Organization, the Coaches, my teammates & the fans you guys have been great & I'll be looking forward to the chapter.

| Long term biphasic sleeping
I've been happily biphasic sleeping for a couple of months now, with a 75-80 minute nap and about 4-4.5 hours of core sleep. This is working well, and the quality of sleep seems to be steadily improving. My question is : are there any long-term biphasic sleepers out there? I'd love to hear of your experiences over a couple of years or more. |

There are two pretty well developed threads on this board--"log your polyphasic sleep" and "has anyone tried to reduce their sleep"--these are approximations of the headers, but you can find them. With your experience, have you noticed, or have your read or heard anything abt the relative importance of timing the daytime nap regularly? Of couse, it's intuitive that it would make the most sense to do this, but hard to accomplish for a lot of folks in this culture. I have a regular nighttime sleep block, but that second part I can see will not be easy to put at the same time every day. Maybe it doesn't matter so much as long as you get it. I'll be real interested to hear of your experience in this. For interest, if you don't mind my asking what are your particular hours nighttime and naptime, do they vary and what has been the effect of any variance? Thanks! Ati | |

My current schedule isn't much different to the one I started out with, and it's a 75-80 minute nap beginning 7:30-8:00pm with core sleep of 4-4.5 hours beginning at 2:00-2:30am. I don't vary these times much unless there is a specific reason on that day. If I'm going out, I try to get in a short nap (15-20 minutes) beforehand; with a slightly longer period of core sleep afterward (around 6 hours). A thought on the timing : the above situation isn't ideal, and I only use it when I have to. If possible, adjust your schedule to allow the naps to begin at roughly the same time each day. This just makes it easier to adjust to. Regarding variance, I've tried various combinations of nap/gap/core sleep. The times above work for me personally, and anything else leaves me extremely tired for most of the following day. I'm not quite sure why that is (more experimentation to do), but it works. | |||

Well I decided to go biphasic and the first day it was real easy. Although I had 10 hours of sleep friday and saturday evening. On Sunday I went to bed at 1 am and was WIDE awake at 5:30. Its very rare for me to wake up so early and not just fall back in bed because its so comfortable and fall back asleep for another 5 hours... So on monday I went for my nap a little late because of some other things and overslept to 3 hours. I then woke up and stayed awake for 2 hours and then slept for 4.5. On tuesday I went for my nap late again at like 10:30 and woke up several times but only finally got out of bed for an hour between 1:30-3:00... I finally was awake by around 7.. funny thing is I don't remember having any dreams at all which is not normal It is now wednesday morning and I went for my nap at 9:00 but don't recall getting out of bed. I have just woken up at 3:00 AM though and am wide awake! I think that I need to time my nap a bit better but so far I have seemed to reduce my overall sleep from a normal 9-10 hours. At 3:30 I guess its time to have some breakfast and have a shower and get my day started though! |

Why would you do this? I am being silly know, but what is the point? What about just getting a good nights (7-8 hours sleep)? Is this a new 21 Century "lets not bother wasting too much time sleeping" craze? That may be simplistic I know, but it's like people who were wooly hats in the summer....what is the point? Or should I ask, what are the benefits? G |

Well the whole thing is that sleep is something that varies by person, it always has. But biphasic seems to have become more popular because it works for more than just a few. You see, others as well as I find that if we sleep for 6 hours monophasically then after a few days we kind of crash and end up being tired so we oversleep the next few days and it turns into a cycle of 6 hrs 6 hrs 6 hrs 8 hrs 8 hrs 8 hrs 6 hrs 6 hrs 6 hrs etc. But with biphasic sleep, it doesnt happen, it is just 6 hours of total sleep everyday. Now it might not always be optimal for everyone, but when it is it is a good way to reduce time spent in bed. The reason I decided to do it? I have to make international business calls to the UK. And so therefore when I wake up in the morning I am able to do that. The UK is 7 hours ahead of me so when i normally used to wake up at 7:00 and be ready to go by 8:00 it was already 3pm in the UK and when I have class at 8:00 it becomes very hard to contact people in the UK. This is why getting up around 5am is very helpful and in the evening around midnight my time is not wasted either, I market on the internet and read stevepavlina's site |

Its funny because most of my life I can remember waking up naturally almost always right around 5am, and feeling pretty rested and awake. But as soon as I saw the alarm clock I would just go back to sleep with the thought of -if i get a few more hours of sleep i would feel even better. But when id wake up id feel tired and groggy. So it really depends on the person | |

There are many benefits, but the biggest one for me is still the increased quality of sleep. If you're already sleeping quite well, this may not sound like much. However, if your sleep is less than perfect, it can be an enormous change. The bottom line : try it. If it doesn't fit in with your lifestyle, simply stop doing it. After a few weeks you'll see what all the fuss is about. | |

The reason I'm really putting in the time, focus and energy to explore this is to see if I can routinely get up to play/practice music at 3:45am before heading off to work, and at the same time stay up late enough to have a nice evening with family and friends.. So night time has become something like 11:15 to 11:30pm -------> 3:45am as long as I get 1:30 hrs in during the day. I'm tinkering with the details as you can see. I'm also looking at some other potential gains--the effect on potential for jet lag...doesn't seem to matter much as long as I get my 2 blocks in, so far anyway.... Quote:
Good luck, give it a try if you like. I think that like a lot of things that are not hazardous to try, it makes sense to experience this before getting too much into the theoretical aspects...then go for the theory when a question comes up, just my 2c.... | ||

text: The Show Catwalk Fashion Shows Autumn/Winter 2010-11 Ready-To-Wear Burberry Prorsum 23 February 2010 Dolly Jones BURBERRY PRORSUM's second consecutive season in London gave the paparazzi just as much to get excited about as the first one: Carey Mulligan - fresh from winning her Best Actress Bafta on Monday night – Kate Hudson, Kristen Stewart, Mary Kate Olsen, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Olivia Palermo and Mario Testino led the impressive front row line-up. But that's not the only reason we're hoping they show here again next season – Christopher Bailey's latest collection was bursting with hugely covetable pieces with a lasting quality that justifies the less than healthy effect they're bound to have on our bank accounts.Gorgeous sheepskin-lined aviator jackets with double collars were cropped into the waist – a crashing soundtrack of stormy weather ensured they were first on everybody's wish lists – and they set a military theme in motion that was played out in fine details: gold buttons, multiple buckles up the sleeves, and zips that sometimes offered to slice off the bottom of a coat leaving just a fitted, cropped version.The heaviness of sumptuous fur, ponyskin, suede and sheepskin coats were cleverly lightened by lace mini dresses in the same warmly autumnal colour palette interspersed with soft spring green and mustard. Ruffles of lace ran up and down the sexy tubular dresses, while thigh high snakeskin stiletto boots or sturdier ankle boots, with multiple buckles and sheepskin linings, gave the Burberry woman a tough exterior that made silk bandage dresses of raspberry and gold chiffon, muslin and silk all the more alluring.The military coats were most elegant in navy, and later they puffed gently over the hips and were bowed in black satin at the back to give them a touch more femininity – a couple of full, collarless ones in the softest teddy bear fur confirmed a new trend for the season. Waffled leather and woven silks meant that the evening wear was just as tactile as the hardier day wear –sheepskin coats that came later were patchworks of every different length of wool - while tailored trousers came with liquid velvet blouses or fitted lace ones that added a rich romance.

By wallpaper I mean for your computer screen. For some reason I always liked to see what people choose as it usually seems to say a lot about them/their interests, etc. Plus sometimes I get new ideas for what I can change mine to!Right now, I have a beautiful scene of Mickey Mouse and Walt Disney walking hand in hand in a fantasy world with castles, puffy clouds shaped like Dumbo, Disney fairies, a babbling brook, and other Disney characters. It's VERY cute!!What's yours?

Ed Winter, assistant chief at the coroner's office, said the autopsy is scheduled for today. Looking into whether Scott had cancer will be part of it.
"We'd like to know why a person decides to take their life," Winter said. "Is there some hidden thing we don't know about. Did he, in fact, have cancer and say, 'I'm out of here. I don't want to be in pain. I don't want my family to see me suffer."

Holiday shopping off to record start
NEW YORK (AP) – If you make holiday shopping convenient, Americans will come in droves.
It's estimated that U.S. shoppers hit stores and websites at record numbers over the Thanksgiving weekend, according to a survey released by the National Retail Federation on Sunday. They were attracted by retailers' efforts to make shopping easier, including opening stores on Thanksgiving evening, updating mobile shopping applications for smartphones and tablets, and expanding shipping and layaway options.
All told, a record 247 million shoppers visited stores and websites over the four-day weekend starting on Thanksgiving, up 9.2 percent of last year, according to the survey. Americans spent more too: The average holiday shopper spent $423 over the entire weekend, up from $398. Total spending over the four-day weekend totaled $59.1 billion, up 12.8 percent from 2011.

Magento Imagine took place last week, April 8th – 10th at the M Resort hotel in Las Vegas. WebShopApps were in attendance and as we have come to expect from Magento, we were not disappointed.
Our Dropship extension makes shipping products from multiple locations simple. Using Dropship you can create warehouses in Magento and assign each of your products to the warehouse it ships from in the product listing. This means if your warehouses change in the future, you only need to update the information once in the warehouse listing, not for each product.
You can configure the extension to automatically email each warehouse with order details to reduce your workload. And it works well with many of our other extensions to create a superior shipping solution.
With Dropship you have the option to allow your customers to select shipping rates on a per warehouse basis at checkout. Or you can combine shipping from the individual warehouses to create a single set of shipping rates and simplify the checkout process.
Nearest Warehouse Version
This upgrade enhances Dropship to support multiple warehouses supplying the same product. It works out, per product, which warehouse is closest to the customer and automatically selects that warehouse to supply the product.VIDEO
Unsure if this extension is right for you? Contact us.

Since the concept of Search Engine Optimization (SEO) and Pay Per Click (PPC) have become such a prominent force in the online marketing world because they can be measured through analytics by seeing the Click to Conversion ratios, companies have become very focused on this to decide whether a program is successful or it failed. However with the rise of social media and its importance to marketing strategies companies are left scratching their heads trying to figure out just how to get those same data points from this new marketing channel.
Unfortunately the same types of measures in SEO and PPC don't work the same way for your efforts in Social Media Marketing. It's a lot more complex because engagement in social media communities very rarely leads to a person clicking on your link and then purchasing your product or service. You also have to factor into the whole scheme of measuring your actions online whether its SEO, PPC or media buying, was that "Click" affected by something you did in Social Media.
Different Types of Social Media Measured in Different Ways
Take for example engagement in forums. Say you have a team from your engineering department out in a Ruby on Rails forum discussing the latest things they've implemented using RoR. Someone who's been lurking and watching your team share it's knowledge posts a reply in the thread saying "hey thanks, you guys really seem to know your stuff, this helped me a lot". The next thing that person does is looks at one of your team's bios. They then look at their profile on LinkedIn, then look at your company's profile on LinkedIn. From their they click over to your blog and read a few of your thought leadership posts. After they read those posts, they forward one on to their managing direct with a note that says "these guys seem to really know their stuff, can we utilize them to help us XYZ project?".
