Before going on vacation I baked some amazing, delicious cinnamon buns. This is part of the Bread Baker's Apprentice Challenge. The buns are prepared in 1 day. I suggest that you start in the morning if you want to eat your buns at Dinner time for dessert. They were so easy to make and much cheaper than the buns at my grocery store, they are selling them at $4.99 for 4. Mine looked much better and were freshly baked. In Reinhart's recipe you can make either the cinnamon buns or the sticky buns. Next time I may try half and half. Those sticky buns look really yummy too.
If you want to read more about the Bread Baker's Apprentice Challenge visit Pinch my Salt blog for more details. You can join the fun at any time and bake beautiful breads with us. We are baking all the recipes from Peter Reinhart's book.
Here are more pics for the cinnamon buns:
Cream the sugar, sald and shortening together and adding some lemon zest for flavor.
After proofing they nearly doubled in size. They are now reading for baking. Preheat oven to 350F and bake for approx. 20-30 min. After you top your buns with a white fondant glaze.

Meal Plans
Getting an ID Card
To get an ID card the student must:
- Be registered for classes, current or future semester or term
- Have photo ID such as a driver's license or passport
- Meet all Dress and Grooming Standards
Click here for more information on ID card standards.
Please be aware, family and friends will be asked to wait outside the ID Center during New Student Orientation week. Thousands of students visit our small office during NSO week and we appreciate family and friends helping keep a clear path for students. Comfortable seating is available to the east and west of the ID Center.
No photos (other than the ones we take) or videos may be taken in the ID Center.
Student Privacy
The Family Educational Rights and Privacy Act (FERPA) protects a student's privacy interests in educational records. These records include any information directly related to a student and maintained by BYU unless specifically exempted by the act. Information can only be given to the student unless one of the following exceptions applies:
1. A parent demonstrates to the ID Center that the student is claimed as a dependent for federal tax purposes.
2. We have received written consent from the student allowing someone else access to their ID card and related account information.
When a parent deposits Cougar Cash to a student's ID card or purchases a meal plan for a student, this is considered a gift to the student - similar to giving a gift card. Making a deposit or a purchase for a student does not entitle a parent to request information or make changes to a student's account or meal plan.
Cougar Cash
Every student has a Cougar Cash account on their ID card.
Cougar Cash is a retail account. While it is managed in My Financial Center, it is not connected to a student's Financial account. Most Financial account payments such as tuition or health insurance may NOT be paid by Cougar Cash. Some miscellaneous Financial account payments may be paid by Cougar Cash, in person at the ASB One Stop/Financial Services desk. Financial account funds cannot be moved to Cougar Cash.
Students can load Cougar Cash onto their ID card via echeck in My Financial Center (mfc.byu.edu). Students can also load Cougar Cash in a few clicks via the BYU app. Or students can sign up for Cougar Cash Direct. Direct allows student to make purchases without loading funds first. When the student has spent more than $5 or 45 days have passed, BYU will charge the student's designated checking account for the purchases. Direct has a default daily purchase limit of $250.
Most textbook purchases are charged to a student's Financial account, not Cougar Cash/ID card. If you want to use Cougar Cash to pay for textbooks, please specify this with the BYU Store clerk.
Cougar Cash can be used at Dining locations, vending machines, the BYU Store, WSC retail operations, copy centers, computer labs and other campus retail locations.
Students and BYU employees don't pay sales tax at campus restaurants when they pay with Cougar Cash! That's a savings of 7.85%!
For more information on Cougar Cash locations and policies, visit the Cougar Cash website, cougarcash.byu.edu.
Meal Plans
Dining Services meals plans are also on the ID card.
At Dining locations purchases are automatically deducted from meal plans first. If sufficient meal plan funds are not available to complete a transaction, the register will automatically cascade to Cougar Cash. If Cougar Cash is not sufficient to complete the transaction, the remaining balance can be paid with cash, check or credit/debit card.
At non-Dining locations like the BYU Store, copy centers, or laundry machines, purchases are automatically deducted from Cougar Cash, bypassing any meal plans.
Meal plans are administered by the Meal Plan Office, division of Campus Accommodations, 100 USB, 801-422-6944, firstname.lastname@example.com.
Meal plans can be purchased online by logging in to MyBYU and selecting the My Dining Account campus link under the School drop-down menu. Meal plans are charged to the student's Financial Account. Please be sure your student is aware of the plan's start date, end date, and other important terms and conditions. For more information on meals plans visit dining.byu.edu.

Management of diabetes involves making decisions on changes in food, insulin, and exercise. These decisions are made based on data from blood glucose monitoring, and in particular, the patterns gleaned from that data.
Until the advent of personal computers, people with diabetes and their health care teams relied on paper records to determine these patterns. Almost all blood glucose meters have data ports to connect to computers and come with software to analyze the data gathered from blood glucose monitoring. Many clinics ask patients to bring their meters to their quarterly clinic visits and download the data into a central database.
If you have a personal computer and a meter with a data port, it's worth reviewing the many software packages available to help you manage your diabetes. We have a listing at Computerizing Your Meter.
This table shows how people have answered this question over the years. It's interesting to note that today, 60% of people report using paper logs, and 25% report downloading meter data to a computer, which is essentially unchanged since October 2002.

Staples wrecks Westhill
STAMFORD -- By his own admission, Staples quarterback Jack Massie had one of the worst games of his career last week in a close win over Wilton.
The senior signal caller may have felt the exact opposite after throwing four touchdown passes and running for one more, all in the first half, as Staples rolled over Westhill 63-14 Saturday.
"We had a good game against Xavier, a bad game against Wilton, so, we wanted to come out here and have a good game," Massie said. "I think (Wilton) was the worst game of my career, well hopefully the worst game of my career. I wanted to play as well as I could, just play within myself and give it to receivers like Will Johnson and give it to the back and just let them do their thing."
Massie ran for 55 yards and threw for 87, only playing the first half with his team in total control.
Massie said having running back Patrick Lesch back has helped balance the offense and open up the passing game.
"It helps, having a good running game and running backs that can find their own way and don't need the biggest holes to get good gains makes the defense commit to the run which leaves the pass open," Massie said. "I think the O-line was playing real well today and was giving holes and giving me time to throw, it just all came together."
If everything was working well for the Wreckers, the opposite was true for Westhill, which had two interceptions returned for touchdowns, had a punt blocked in the first quarter, fumbled once and committed several costly penalties.
"We stunk, I'll be the first one to say it," Westhill Coach Frank Marcucio said. "We just did not execute our game plan. You can't throw two pick sixes, fumble the ball, have a blocked punt and expect to win a football game. We failed at all aspects. I thought we were better than that, I thought our intensity was better than that. It was an embarrassing performance."
Staples scored four times in the first quarter on a run by Massie, scoring passes to Lesch and Johnson and a pick six by Johnson.
Staples coach Marce Petroccio said he felt like his team was ready coming in and wanted to make a statement after the Wilton game and felt the team responded to Massie being locked in from the start.
"Kids worked hard all week and they came out with a purpose today," Petroccio said. "Our offensive line played much better than they have the last two weeks and Jack was pretty good today. He ran it today, he threw it. He had a great day and we go as he goes."

Gig Preview: Flyte – Fallow Cafe, Manchester – 25/05/17
For those of you well-versed in the indie scene, you'll need no introduction to Flyte. The London quartet immediately captivated the attention of all the cool kids back in 2013 with the release of infectious hit 'Over and Out'. Two EP's and numerous singles since, it's been uphill only for vocalist Will Taylor and co – whose knack at penning indie anthems such as 'Please Eloise' and 'Light Me Up' has earned the band over 1.5 million Spotify streams and support slots with Bombay Bicycle Club. Not too shabby, eh?
Their latest single is the product of Flyte's travels abroad; earlier this year, they began carefully curating their debut album alongside Australian producer Burke Reid of Courtney Barnett fame. 'Victoria Falls' has got all the ingredients of a top hit. Melancholy guitar? Check. Soaring harmonies? Check. Their live performances, filmed in Shoreditch's St Leonard's Church, have elevated the quartet's live show to the next level. It's no surprise that their recent Facebook covers of Joni Mitchell and David Bowie have caused such a stir.
Their return from Australia marks a new chapter for Flyte. Armed with an abundance of new songs that they're eager to play, their plan is "to get on the road and not get off it for a long while". Their first headline tour in nearly two years kicks off at Brighton's Great Escape tonight; after that, it's a trek around the UK, including a visit to Fallow Cafe next Thursday. With their last Manchester date a sell-out groove at Gullivers supported by longtime pals Screaming Peaches, expect nothing less than magical from Flyte this summer.

Opponents of a proposal that could bring Millstone Power Station higher ratepayer revenues in Connecticut are hoping a newly initiated federal review will stall any potential state action on the nuclear plant's future.
Late last month, the Department of Energy proposed a rule to the Federal Energy Regulatory Commission that would direct grid operator ISO-New England and fellow ISOs to revise wholesale energy market rules to provide higher compensation to nuclear power and coal power plants.
In response, Eversource, NRG and the AARP all submitted comments this month to the Department of Energy and Environmental Protection and the Public Utilities Regulatory Authority, which are jointly conducting a review of Millstone's economic viability, as ordered by Gov. Dannel Malloy in July.
"...Given that there is now a DOE and FERC driven initiative to increase compensation for generation such as nuclear and coal units, there is no need for immediate action by the Connecticut legislature," Eversource wrote to the state agencies. "DEEP and PURA should monitor these developments at DOE and FERC, and reflect the results in the report they are preparing in these dockets."
AARP concurred with Eversource.
"Although AARP does not support providing any additional compensation to Millstone Station – these new developments could cause any additional compensation awarded to Millstone to be paid by all New England ratepayers instead of forcing only Connecticut ratepayers to unfairly bear this expense," the group wrote.
NRG wrote Wednesday it agreed that the debate over providing more support to nuke plants belongs at a regional or national level, rather than in one state.
The proposed rule, NRG said, "would likely moot any request by Dominion for special financial support from Connecticut electric ratepayers. Accordingly, the [proposal] could have a major impact on the issues currently under study by the agencies."

I've also been working on some watercolors. This scene is a fish house in Goodland,a funky old fishing village and one of my favorite places. Hate to say, but it's now marred with half million dollar condos (which is cheap for here) and waterfront lots are listing at 4 million. Ten years ago you could buy the same thing for about $200,000. Ah.... hindsight.......

This truck originally belonged to a close friend of mine, John Sheppard, and over the years I'd helped him do a bunch of regular work on it along with a few upgrades. It's a good work truck with a 302 V8, a 4-speed overdrive "SROD" transmission, and a 9" rear axle. Befitting a good work truck, it has about zero options other than two-tone green and black paint, and a replacement "long block" engine from Schuck's Automotive in the recent history before John bought the truck. John's son Trey was slated to become the eventual recipient of this truck, so we made an effort to keep it going so he'll have something to learn about cars on and take pride in working on when he gets old enough. It was getting a bit run-down and rusty, and that transfer was in question, and then it developed a rod knock. (So much for that high quality rebuilt engine...) I took possession of the truck to fix it, and eventually gave John a 1989 Ford F150 in exchange for me keeping this truck to mess around with.
Related Pages
As individual part of this page get too long, I move them off to separate pages to keep things more manageable. Here's the current list of separate pages.
Basic Stuff/History
I used to live in the same town as the previous owner of this truck (John), and we helped each other do all sorts of preventative maintenance on each other's vehicles, as well as diagnose and fix the usual list of problems that crop up on older cars.
Most amusing was that his heater never worked for years, and everyone hated riding in John's truck in the winter because it was so darned cold. John never cared to investigate and fix it because he's basically cold blooded. I was sick of freezing my butt off every time I was in his truck, and the first time I was under his dash, I noticed that the heater door control cable had fallen off the arm that protrudes out of the heater box. 30 seconds later, he had a heater again. He rarely used it, but it did work when the passenger demanded some heat.
At one point we added some basic gauges under the dash, as well as a tach on the column so he could keep tabs on things. They're still there and working, and I'm going to continue to enjoy/use them after the EFI conversion.
The replacement motor from Schuck's (installed just before John bought the truck many years ago) decided to go south shortly before I got the truck. It developed a minor rod knock and the oil pump appears to have basically quit making oil pressure - so it was time for a replacement. At about the same time that the motor developed problems, I happened into a 1985 Mustang with a 5.0L engine, and the original plan was to use that engine to replace the existing and very tired engine in the truck. It needed a basic rebuild, but seemed like it would be a reasonably good rebuild candidate. I also had a decent 1987 Mustang engine laying around, plus a couple of basically complete 1987-1993 5.0L EFI setups laying around. All I really needed to try and swap the truck to EFI along with the new motor was a suitable gas tank out of a later model F-series truck with an EFI in-tank fuel pump. Frankly, it's less hassle for me that rebuilding and tuning the carb would be - wiring and computers make more sense to me than carbs do, at least for tuning purposes. Yes, I am a geek. After I made the decision to go with an EFI setup and started picking up a few odds and ends I still needed, I decided to go with the 1987 Mustang engine for this project.
The original transmission is a "SROD" (single rail overdrive) 4 speed manual transmission, with 4th gear being an overdrive gear. Here are three pics of the trans tag that we took a long time ago. Why three pics? Because we are apparently a couple of goobers who can't manage to get a single good picture that is both in focus and not over-exposed with the flash. Between all three you can make out pretty much all of the info on the tag.
The codes on the tag are something like this:
The "RUG CD" identifies this as the SROD transmission. It's similar in appearance to the Toploader transmissions, but it's not the same. Unlike the Toploader, this variation has a reputation for being weak in performance applications and is not considered to be a "desirable" transmission for performance use. The "AK17" is the year and date code for when this transmission was built - A is 1979, K is October, and 17 is the day of the month. "D8TRMA" is the "transmission assembly number prefix and suffix" - at least that's what the factory service manual calls it. "1668" is the serial number of the transmission. I'm still trying to sort out the ratios it really has - I really need to do this to sort out any possible transmission swap options for the future. The factory manual only lists "RUG BP" in the transmission tag decoding, and I think that two-letter suffix indicates the ratios. For that one the ratios are listed below.
The plan for now is to leave the existing trans in place with the new motor and use it as-is. I won't be driving the truck very hard or do any drag-race style launches, so the transmission will (hopefully) continue to lead a long and happy life behind the new late-model motor. The only hitch will be that I needed to swap the flywheel to a later model unit to match the "50oz imbalance" of the later model engine. I originally thought this would be no big deal - used Mustang 5.0L flywheels with plenty of service life left in them are readily available around here - but as it turns out, the flywheel in the trucks in larger than the flywheel used in the Mustangs. The F-series manual transmission requires a 164 tooth flywheel with an 11" clutch, while the Mustang manual transmission requires a 157 tooth flywheel with a 10.5" clutch. I learned enough researching this and figuring out what flywheel to buy that I started a tech page about Ford flywheels and flexplates.
Rear Axle
The original rear axle (currently in storage in my shed) has these codes:
No surprises here - since it was the original axle, the codes line up with this truck.
The replacement rear axle (currently in the truck) has these codes:
So, we stepped up in ratio a good bit but stepped down from a 9" to a 8 3/4" rear diff. For what this truck gets used for, that's fine. If I found a better carrier super cheap or this one blew up, I'd consider swapping it.
Air Conditioning
This section got long enough to make into it's own separate page. I added AC from a series of Craigslist purchases and a 1977 Ford F250 parts truck.
This section got long enough to make into it's own separate page. I'm running Summit headers with an X-pipe and basic mufflers.
Cooling System
This section got long enough to make into it's own separate page. It's a conglomeration of various factory bits and a bit of creative thinking.
Previous Upgrades
These were all done before I owned the truck.
4 bbl intake and carb. Our first major customization project was swapping the original 2bbl carb and cast iron intake manifold to a 4bbl carb on an Edelbrock aluminum intake manifold. I had some extra cash, and I found a great deal on the parts on eBay, and bought them as a surprise birthday gift for John - he's helped me on a number of projects and it seemed like a nice thing to do. The picture below was what I sent to him to let him know what I had waiting for him the next time he brought the truck over to my house so we could work on it.
Better rear axle gear ratio. The other major project was swapping the original 9" rear center section for one with a higher gear ratio. The original rear gearing was a 2.75 and was very incompatible with the gearing in the original transmission. The truck was hard to to start off from a stop in first gear (burned clutches from slipping the clutch and/or impromptu unintentional burnouts from disengaging the clutch too fast), and it actually had so low of an RPM in 4th gear (overdrive) that the gas mileage was horrible. We stepped up to a 3.70 rear and drivability, mileage and overall performance all jumped up noticeably. Yes, it really is possible to have a rear axle ratio that is "too low" and causes a serious drop-off in gas mileage. Comparing the vacuum gauge at cruise in top gear before and after the rear axle ratio change was enlightening. Before the vacuum was very low and you had to give the engine a lot of gas to keep your speed. After, the vacuum was noticeably higher and you didn't need to give the engine as much gas to keep your speed. It's all about running in a more efficient RPM range so the engine could make the best use of the fuel you gave it.
Closed cooling system conversion by adding a coolant overflow tank. We converted the truck to a closed cool system by adding a coolant overflow tank from a '80s Ford vehicle. Simple, easy, and keeps all of the coolant in the engine even after ongoing hot/cold cycles. When the engine heats up, the coolant expands out of the radiator and into the overflow tank via the small rubber hose attached at the radiator filler neck. When the engine cools back off again, the coolant is sucked back into the radiator for the overflow tank, thus ensuring that the radiator is full at all times. Without this, it's considered "normal" to have the coolant not come up to the top of the radiator when cold, and if you run the engine hotter than "normal", some coolant will drop onto the ground from the small rubber hose attached to the radiator filler neck. This means it's common to have to add some coolant over time - not cool, and messy when it drips.
This is the truck as it arrived in my driveway to prepare for the engine replacement (see below). The best part of this is that the Ford purists will be suitably aggravated that a Chevy was used to rescue a Ford. :-) I took some pics of the existing wiring work we had done already, plus the engine and body as they were when it arrived in my driveway. There are a number of small things that need fixing, and I'll handle them along with the engine work.
Here's the 1987 Mustang engine installed into the truck. These first few pictures show it with a set of fuel rails from a 1989 F150 that I parted out. I was hoping to use the entire fuel system from the 1989 F150 because it would have simplified the plumbing of the high pressure fuel line, but no such luck was to be had. The upper intake from the 1987 Mustang engine hit the pressure regulator on the fuel rails from the 1989 F150 and not even a 1" spacer between the upper and lower intakes looked like it would have cured it, so I was back to using the Mustang fuel rails and trying to combine them with the F150 EFI fuel system I would be installing along the driver's side frame rail.
As a result of that problem, I installed a set of fuel rails from another Mustang EFI system I had laying around, and then everything cleared just fine. Unfortunately, this means I need to do something different than I had planned for the EFI fuel pumps and lines to mate up the output of the high pressure pump from the 1989 F150 to the fuel rails from the Mustang.
Here's a picture of the serpentine belt system for reference.
This is a picture of a friend of mine who was helping out that day - Trey "Wilson" Sheppard. Thanks for the help, Trey - I appreciated it, even if you were massively camera shy. :-)
Here's the shifter re-installed, complete with a brand new shift boot. That should help out a lot with keeping the noise and fumes out of the cab.
I got a canopy courtesy of Craigslist - it was free because it has a busted out front window. It was originally slated to be used on the 1989 F150, but I found a better canopy for that truck and decided to use the black one on this truck. It'll help keep stuff from getting stolen out of the bed and keep things sort-of dry.
Here's the engine compartment after I installed the vacuum distribution block, BP sensor, and decided on the rough location where the EFI wiring would enter the cab - the yellow tape marks that rough spot in both pictures. It's low and behind some stuff in the second picture, but you can see it just next to the factory wiring harness that goes through the firewall. The entire passenger's side of the firewall is being reserved for a future AC system installation.
Here's the EGR spacer and the throttle body re-installed after having been cleaned. They look much better. The gaskets were Felpro #72543 for the EGR plate to upper intake manifold and #70262 for the throttle body to EGR plate. After bolting everything down, I even remembered to hook up the IAC, TPS, and EGR sensor.
This is a picture of the firewall from the inside taken through the glove box opening - I removed the glove box to help see where the EFI wiring could come through the firewall. The rusty area is the backside of the pinch weld on the front of the firewall - as you can see it's got some rust issues. The second picture shows how bad - the bright spots in the red circle are daylight that you can see from the inside. I'm not doing a full restoration, but I will need to keep this at bay for a while. I think I'll use some Eastwood Rust Encapsulator on it followed by some seam sealer.
EFI Conversion Information
This is the specific notes for the EFI conversion on this truck. I have a dedicated page for general information about doing a Ford EFI conversion.
I'm using a Mustang MAF-based EFI system for this conversion, circa 1989-1992. It's cobbled together from a variety of pieces I had laying around and that I collected from the local junkyards, eBay, and Craigslist. The computer is program code A3M, which is Mustang MAF unit for a manual transmission application.
The fuel tank, rear fuel lines, accumulator, filter, and low and high pressure fuel pumps are from a 1989 Ford F150 and a 1987 Ford F150 that I parted out. With the exception of the fuel sender being different, the later model tank is a direct bolt-in. See the EFI Gas Tank page for more details on the sender rebuild and installation process. I used the original later model nylon fuel fuel lines to go from the rear tank to the accumulator. The high pressure fuel lines from the accumulator to the high pressure pump and filter are custom made using the original nylon line connectors with 5/16" high pressure fuel hose clamped to them. I closed off the ports on the accumulator for the front fuel tank using a short length of low pressure fuel line and some clamps to keep dirt and debris out of the system, and prevent gas fumes from leaking out.
The later model EFI speed sensor mounts directly in the original transmission and uses the original speedo gear from the transmission. I used a 75" long speedo cable that, assuming I labeled all of my boxes of parts correctly, should be out of a 1987 F150 with a 5.0L and an AOD.
The wiring is mostly from a Mustang circa 1989-1992, but does have a few late model F150 bits spliced in where needed. The engine wiring is straight up Mustang, the engine compartment harness is a lightly modified Mustang harness with a custom adaptor harness plugged into it at the green, grey, and black connectors. The under-truck wiring to the speed sensor is from a 1987 F150, and the under-truck wiring for the fuel pump is a 1987 F150 frame harness reworked to remove non-essential bits.
I kept a complete to-do list as I went through this process.
Parts Replacement Information
Since I used parts from a couple of years to make this all work, I wanted to keep a note of it all in one place for later servicing.

Purchasing Order
This was vehicle #32. This vehicle was my first EFI conversion project and the first vehicle I got in trade for another vehicle. It was also the first vehicle that I got that was owned by a friend previously - aka, the first one to move from a Foster Vehicle to one that I owned.
Comments? Kudos? Got some parts you'd like to buy/sell/barter/swap? Nasty comments about my web page so far? You can email Mike or Debbie.

We have a reputation for using sophisticated, rigorous mathematical techniques to solve real-world problems.
How would you summarise your research?
I enjoy using difficult, abstract mathematics to solve difficult and important real-world problems.
I enjoy using a combination of analytical and computational methods, the one informing the other. For example, accurate numerics can give guidance as to the topology and structure of solutions, for example singularities, which can then point the way to an analytic description. Equally asymptotic methods can be used in formulating, for example, far-field boundary condition, which can then be used to make numerical schemes more efficient.
What do you think makes the School distinctive?
The School places a lot of emphasis on intra- and inter-disciplinary research. We are well known for this type of research both across and outside the campus. We have a reputation for using sophisticated, rigorous mathematical techniques to solve real-world problems. Indeed, mathematics is benefitting from the need for numerous other disciplines (even non-science based areas) to become much more quantitative.
What do you enjoy most about teaching?
I enjoy showing how classical mathematics can be used to solve a number of modern-day problems. Taking financial mathematics as an example, there is no doubt that this has revolutionised many global financial markets, and is linked to the exchange of many billions of dollars of commercial trading on a daily basis.
How do you make your teaching up-to-date, innovative and inspirational?
I try to add topical items of news to motivate some of the mathematics used in my lectures.
What do you enjoy most about research?
I enjoy solving partial differential equations, both numerically and analytically. I also enjoy using techniques I have employed in one area (fluid dynamics) in another area (financial mathematics). Even though these may be regarded as completely disparate areas, nonetheless a lot of the mathematics is the same – this is the magic of mathematics!
What have been the highlights of your career?
Hosting several international conferences in Manchester. I have also been involved in the recruitment of a good number of staff, many of whom have become international leaders in their fields. Manchester is also now a major centre for financial mathematics, and I feel I have played a part in this.
When a student completes their course, what for you are the measures of success?
I like to think they have found some of the material studied challenging, interesting and useful.

Medical questions & health advice by board certified doctors
"Why is my wrist hurting?"
My right wrist started to hurt about a month ago. Not strong pain, more like a small throb slight discomfort. I'm not sure what it is, but I thought it may be because I've been on the computer a lot lately and maybe I haven't been holding up my wrists right like I'm supposed to. I bought a wrist brace to help my wrist stay straight (more like to prevent further damage than because of the pain) but the discomfort is still present, especially when I'm handwriting. What is it? I'm in college right now so writing is a must, but I'm trying to give my hand as much of a break as I can. Is there something in my diet I can alter to help with this? Will the pain eventually go away? I'm 19, btw. Thank you,
This is an excellent question. Because wrist pain is fairly common, especially in people that work on computers, there are a variety of options available to help with the pain. That being said, it is important that you are evaluated by a healthcare professional such as your primary care doctor, because he or she will be best able to evaluate your past medical history and perform a physical exam to make sure there isn't something serious going on with your wrist. Depending on what your doctor finds during your exam, he or she may order imaging such as an x-ray. It is not uncommon for people that work on the computer to have wrist symptoms, this can sometimes even progress to carpal tunnel disease. To improve your symptoms, you can consider getting an ergonomic keyboard, taking some anti-inflammatory medications such as ibuprofen, and getting up from the computer regularly to avoid aggravating your symptoms. You can also stretch your wrists often and ice your wrist when it is feeling inflamed. You can also try wearing an over the counter wrist splint, especially at night. Again, it is very important for you to make an appointment with your primary care doctor to get a correct diagnosis and treatment.

Hi! Thanks so much for stopping by EscapeNBooks. I'm Ella and reading is my passion.
In 2012, I began my journey back into books and found that they provided a much-needed escape. Binge-reading became my sport and I quickly developed an insatiable obsession with Student-Teacher romance novels. Initially concerned that I would run out of books to read, I now find it impossible to read books fast enough to keep up with the many new novels that are releasing daily.
I love connecting with other readers and authors. Make sure to check out the places you can follow me and my blog so we can keep up with one another. EscapeNBooks also has a great reader group that is a more intimate setting where we can chat books with all of our reader and author friends.
I look forward to sharing my love of books with you.

"Anyone guilty of anti-Semitism will be called out on it." With those words, delivered Monday in a speech to the Conservative Friends of Israel annual lunch, the United Kingdom's Prime Minister Theresa May declared a just war of sorts. A timely one too. For as David Nirenberg, the University of Chicago professor and author of Anti-Judaism: The History of a Way of Thinking, has warned us, "We live in an age in which millions of people are exposed daily to some variant of the argument that the challenges of the world they live in are best explained in terms of "Israel"".
Nirenberg's book is a magisterial survey and its conclusion should leave us shaken: hostility to the Jews has been a constituent element of western culture. The uncanny flexibility of antisemitism, its remarkable ability to shape-shift, has ensured both its impressive longevity and our woeful tendency to fall each time for its new guise.
Anti-Semitism's core motif is that the Jews, collectively and in their essence, are malign. Chameleon-like, the attribution of malignity changes with the times and with the needs of the anti-Semites. Jews have been "God-killers", "aliens", "cosmopolitans", "Jewish bankers", "Jewish-Bolsheviks", "untermenschen". These have all served as code words to mark the Jew for destruction.
And now the code word is "Zionist" or "Zios" or "Zio-Nazis". That which the demonological Jew once was, demonological Israel now is: uniquely malevolent, full of blood lust, all-controlling, the hidden hand, tricksy, always acting in bad faith, the obstacle to a better, purer, more spiritual world, uniquely deserving of punishment, and so on.
May announced that the British government is formally adopting the working definition of anti-Semitism proposed by the International Holocaust Remembrance Alliance (IHRA)—an intergovernmental body set up at the turn of the century by 31 member countries, 24 of which are EU member countries. We now have a definition that catches up with modern anti-Semitism. "Antisemitism is a certain perception of Jews," the definition runs, "which may be expressed as hatred toward Jews. Rhetorical and physical manifestations of anti-Semitism are directed toward Jewish or non-Jewish individuals and/or their property, toward Jewish community institutions and religious facilities."
The guidance note that accompanies the IHRA definition makes clear it does not seek to prevent legitimate criticism of Israel. If that criticism is similar to that levelled against any other country, then it "cannot be regarded as anti-Semitic." This is vital. Whether or not it is always fair, it is legitimate to criticise Israel's settlement policies, ongoing occupation of the West Bank, failure to close the gaps between the majority Jews and minority Arabs, and the level of force, which some argue is disproportionate, it has used to stop the waves of Hamas rocket attacks.
But the IHRA makes clear that modern anti-Semitism may involve a certain excessive demonising and hate-filled discourse about the Jewish state "conceived as a Jewish collectivity." Some so-called "criticism of Israel" is anything but, having strayed into a dark place, where anti-Semitism is updated for our times. Some of that discourse, such as the Holocaust Inversion—in which Israel is depicted as The Third Reich, the IDF as the SS, Netanyahu as Hitler, and the Star of David twisted into the Swastika—positively luxuriates in those dark places.
The UK government is calling time on all that. Accusing the Jews as a people, or Israel as a state, of inventing or exaggerating the Holocaust, or of being more loyal to Israel than their own nations is now defined as anti-Semitism. The denial of the Jewish peoples right to self-determination, requiring of Israel a behaviour not expected or demanded of any other democratic nation, the application to Israel of the symbols and images associated with classic anti-Semitism, such as the blood libel, all this too, is now defined as anti-Semitism. The "[Ken]Livingstone Formulation"—i.e. the claim that no attack on Israel or Zionism is ever anti-Semitic, while every objection to an attack on Israel is always a bad faith dirty 'Zionist' affair—has had its day.
The Left is comfortable fighting classic anti-Semitism, especially if it comes wearing a skinhead haircut and Dr Martens boots. But when it comes to the anti-Semitism aimed at Israel, the anti-Semitic anti-Zionism highlighted by the IHRA, parts of the Left have lost their way. Too many turn the world upside down until support for Israel's enemies—whatever these enemies stand for, however they behave—is a left-wing duty. For example, Judith Butler, a leading US academic, said Hamas and Hezbollah, two of the most murderous anti-Semitic organizations in the world, must be understood as "social movements that are progressive, that are on the left, that are part of a global left, is extremely important."
Good news then, that the Labour Party has announced that it too will accept the government's new definition. If Jeremy Corbyn's staff have also read the IHRA guidance notes, then that really would be a breakthrough.

The Italian town of Boscotrecase outside Naples has been forced to shut down its public services after 23 members of municipal staff were arrested for chronic absenteeism.
The local staff in the southern Italian town were arrested after going to extraordinary lengths to ditch work. Reuters reported individuals had been videoed using multiple swipe cards to register numerous absent employees.
In other footage obtained by police on man was shown trying to tamper with a CCTV camera in one government building before giving up, putting a box over his head and swiping two cards.
A week-long investigation by police discovered there had been 200 cases of absenteeism involving 30 people in Boscotrecase.
There have been several similar scandals in Italy in recent years. In October 2015, 75% of local government employees in San Remo were found to not showing up to work. In one case, in the Italian Riviera town, a security guard turned up in his pants, swiped his card and went back to bed.
Elected a month ago as mayor of Boscotrecase, Pietro Carotenuto told Sky News Italia: "I'll probably have to shut down the town hall."
Four major town hall departments have been closed as of 12 July due to lack of staff. The charges against the arrested local council workers include fraud against the state, with the head of the local traffic police among those arrested.
The investigation by police comes during a government crackdown on widespread absenteeism. Those accused have been suspended from work for between six and 12 months and could face eventual dismissal.

1. The Old Red Barn Company is having a giveaway. That's not so unusual, lots of bloggers do that. Some do it I think because they are just generous people and love to make others smile. Those are the high roaders. Mostly people do it to drum up business on their blog. They take the low road. Or a combination of the two. I think I'll do it, too, one day soon. In my case I'll be taking the low road - drumming up business. Just to see if I can. And to see if it works. But The Old Red Barn Company seems to me to be one of the high roaders. She's giving away a quilt. Now take it from a quilter, giving away a quilt is a big deal. Really big deal. Like a million dollar prize deal. When you make a quilt it kind of becomes like your baby. Oh, I know she's got a business she's promoting, too. But go back and read some of her posts. Read about the turtles she fed, and about falling in love with her new camera (and she's got some really cute kid pictures there, too), and the one called "What Now" about beeswax...fascinating. Anyway, she seems like the kind of person you'd love to live next door to. And no, I've never met her and I don't get extra points for this post, but I like her heart. I like that she is giving away a quilt even though the quilt is one she'd love to keep. Now don't anybody get mad at me about the high road/low road thing....I know you're all high roaders or I wouldn't be reading your blogs!
2. I learned that there are a lot of people out there blogging and a lot of people commenting on blogs. Some blogs are more popular than others but not necessarily better than others. Some commenters, and some bloggers too, have a rather limited vocabulary based on how many times they use four letter words in casual conversation. I don't think I'm a prude, and I'm not objecting to what they say - I'm a firm advocate of freedom of speech - I just don't see the point. Is that because I'm older than many of them?
3. I've learned that no matter what your interest is you can find someone blogging about it. Interested in trout fishing - try http://www.troutunderground.com/ . How about flowers? http://www.pressed-flowers.blogspot.com/. Maybe you'd like to see what it's like in prison...try http://www.prisonpete.blogspot.com/. I AM NOT KIDDING! Now I can't be sure he's really in prison, but he's got a good gig going (good grief that's a lot of g's) if he isn't cause he's had over 15,000 hits on his profile. If you have a computer there's no reason to be bored.
4. I've learned that there are some of the nicest, funniest, wittiest, most sincere and down-to-earth people writing blogs. And if you comment they comment back and sometimes they e-mail and they will pray with and for you if you ask or they will offer you a book they have that they think you might like or tell you that you have the cutest grandchildren ever. And they are real. I know they are real because of the grandkid thing. There are so many that I love that I just want to share a few with you. From time to time I'm going to share others, and I've already told you about some (if I repeat myself here it's because I'm getting to that age where I do that sometimes so you just smile and say oh, she's just at that age, bless her heart). And if that bless her heart thing doesn't ring any bells you should go back and read a previous post, and no I don't remember when I wrote it but you can look in my archives, don't be lazy.
Suzanne of At Home With The Farmer's Wife is one of my favorite reads. Recently she had a tutorial on how to make an apron from a man's shirt. Pretty resourceful I say and a lot of fun to make I'm sure. No, I haven't made one yet since the wedding and Montezuma got in the way but I plan to. I'll have to go out to the garage and dig through a buch of winter boxes but I'm sure my husband has a shirt he doesn't need, even if he doesn't know it now.
Christine at Front Porch Indiana has some funny stories about her chickens, yes I said chickens, and she takes great pictures to illustrate. Today she bought a pig, but not one she plans to get acquainted with. This one she plans to eat, if she doesn't meet him first.
Another blog I read every day is Tipper at Blind Pig And The Acorn. She always has great stuff but the Appalachian Quilts post today has some pictures you quilt lovers really should see. She has great music, not the kind you hear every day, and a column of grannyisms that I loved leaving a comment on because she's trying to preserve some of the old things our grannys used to say.
And I defy you to read Melissa at Stretch Marks and not fall totally madly in love with her. She has a heart as big as all outdoors and cuts open her chest and shows it to us all. She makes me laugh till I'm sick and cry real big crocodile tears. She's pregnant and you can bet that I'm praying for her and for this baby.
Ok that's enough. I'm just whetting your appetite. There are more, many more that deserve a mention and over time I'll get to them. I'll be your personal screener, you know like the king used to have a food taster? I'll do the tasting and then make my recommendations. Because I'm nice like that. I'm really a high roader in disguise.

I've started new things, both grey or gray depending on your English or American language leanings. First up is the start to finish baby blanket, and second I've finally committed to knitting Featherweight by Hannah Fettig. I say finally as this has been in my queue for years, I am not alone, Featherweight is listed as a a project by 5982 Ravelers (as of Feb 2014) and is in 8222 Ravelers queues!
First things first, the blanket, I wasn't entirely sure what pattern to use, I had some requirements, center out, seamless, and that would suit outdoor use. I often see the MTB (mother to be) out walking, especially in the cooler months - so assume this baby will be in need of a thick warm blanket when out and about. I spent a session (or two, or four, or more) on ravelry searching for a pattern that would work with my Handspun. Eventually I found Quadrature for Korrigan, which surprisingly was already in my queue. I should learn to use my queue as a starting point when looking for a new project.
So I have started, using 5 mm needles and like with any center out project initial progress is blindingly fast and then slows progressively. I'm not sure if I will need to spin more yarn, but have a third bobbin to ply ... So will do that this weekend -- a knitters version of being prepared.
The other new project is Featherweight, knit in Filatura di crosa centrolavaggi, a lace weight merino two ply. It's fine, with 1400 m in 100g so maybe more correctly called cobweb. I thought I had documented all my stored stash in my ravelry stash - but found when I went to link to this yarn it was not listed - even though I was holding it in my hand and knew about it. That leaves me wondering what else I have stashed that I have not added. Perhaps there is something Psychological and denial like going on there, perhaps I'm just forgetful and disorganized.
I want to wear this, I've been browsing over the thousands of Featherweight projects listed on Ravelry and being inspired. There are some who have knit this seven or eight times - and given the Love that clearly exists for this pattern I wonder if my other skein of this yarn ( in ruby) might also become a featherweight.
All that said - I am usually a process knitter, knitting for the love of knitting and working out details, learning new things and fine tuning my skills. Featherweight offers none of that, it is a basic raglan, in plain stocking stitch, with a little rib. Some knitters have polished and customized the pattern with waist shaping, adding lace to the back or over the entire cardigan,and switching out the single ribbed bands for lace or cable work, workd it in a gradient or in stripes, or lengthened some or all of the garment, or even shapped the front bands to pull the cardigan in much like a shrug. All those tweaks are tempting - but I will admit I find knitting with cobweb tedious. Each stitch must be meticulously made, it is all too easy to knit into the loop below, or to split a stitch or knit two together. The yarn is so fine I can't (yet?) knit by feel - I must look. At each stitch. Every time. All the time. And yet I am continuing to knit, I love the promise of a lovely light and soft grey cardigan that will work with my dresses.
I am even considering knitting the 3/4 sleeves, something I usually don't even consider. I am tall and seemed to spend much of my shield hood with half mast sleeves and trousers, things still fit around but my limbs shot out the ends - I grew to hate things that were to short. I have a tendency to counter that outgrown-my-clothes feeling by making things with extended exaggerated long sleeves. My thinking is this yarn is soft merino, and while super wash will pill and fluff and wear. Bracelet length sleeves, which is another name for 3/4 or thereabouts will provide more durability, there will be less rubbing on desks and tables - besides then I can wear my jewellery without worry about snagging.
I begin to see the reasons behind the popularity of Featherweight - the design and finished garment ticks so many boxes, and could easily become a wardrobe essential in our modern world where we live indoors much of the time. There may be more Featherweights in my future - I have already begun to think of the other skein as a second one, and I have at least two or three sweater batches of fingering yarn which would knit up to the same gauge. Oh help - I am growing up, maturing and moving to product knitting -in don't know if i should worry or of this is just a stage?
Then again - it's just knitting, and it keeps me sane, and distracts me from more dangerous pursuits.

As it is, the day is overcast and sombre. Thankfully there are tasks within that keep me occupied, and some outdoor activities after lunch to shake off the lethargy.
In the course of my morning work, I sorted through some recent photos. Let me share a few with you.
|Curled icicles
I was curling in Armstrong (a nearby town) on December 30. My first game was shortly after 8 a.m. and so it was still dark, barely a hint of sunrise, when I arrived at the rink. The building has a metal roof, and as is common in this region, the snow is often soft and water-laden. It slides off metal roofs in a gentle curl. The above photo is such a snow curl with a wicked twist. Frozen icicles followed the curl, and look to me (a former farm girl) like a pick-up reel on a combine. A savage one at that.
Our little community has been steadily working at fundraising in order to put a roof over our outdoor skating rink. Not only will it extend the season for our users (it is a very popular winter activity) but will make the site an all-season venue.
The latest fundraiser was a raffle, offering three prizes: a cut-and-wrapped meat package, a propane barbecue and a generous gas card.
I sold many, many tickets, and The Husband bought several; I bought one. The prize draws were made at the local New Year's Eve dance (which we did not attend, as it's far past our bedtime!). Guess what.
|The Old, on its way to our recycling centre.
Yes. The Husband won the barbecue, which was the only reason he bought tickets (well, and that he's a generous community supporter). I'd long been campaigning for a new barbecue. The old one is really old, and having provided us with hundreds of excellent meals, is barely limping along.
If that wasn't enough, I won the gas card. Oh yes. I can only imagine the reaction in the hall. No matter, I'm on my way later this week to visit The Son and his family up north, and it will come in very handy indeed.
|The New, ensconced in its place of honour.
I watched a TED talk just last night about the mind of procrastinators. You can see it here. And yes, I am a 'goal oriented' person, so it hit pretty close to home. As witnessed by this:
|New and old handmade quilts:
the darker one underneath the work in progress is 100 years old,
made by one of The Husband's great-aunts.
My first grandson's baby quilt. I say "first" because he's already 2.5 years old and there's a new version on the ground already.
I started the little bug quilt quite awhile ago, and then set it aside for the summer ... and got stuck into other things ... and then right around Christmas looked at it in severe guilt. A guilt quilt, if you will. With a promised visit looming, I had a date and a goal.So what you see is an almost finished project. The white chalk marks in the blue band are the stitching lines for my needle to follow. Tonight will see that done, and tomorrow morning the quilt will be washed, all the chalk marks will be gone and the quilting pattern will be revealed as the batt inside fluffs up.
January is when the Christmas clutter (for that is what it becomes after the season) is removed, and the house returned to what passes for normal. It's an opportunity to do a good cleaning, and bring out different items to brighten the house, rearrange displays.
These are a legacy from my mother to her children and grandchildren, and the current display on the old sideboard:
|Mom's legacy.
They are Amish-style dolls (simple bodies, no faces) that she crafted from a huge antique linen tablecloth that belonged to her great-grandmother. The cloth had some holes and wear, and how, she thought, can one share a single item with many people. The answer was dolls: 10 of them. The bodies and dresses are made from the cloth. And as if that wasn't special enough, she handwrote a card explaining the history of the dolls, then laminated them and pinned one on each doll's back, under the dress.
The ones in the photo are mine, my daughter's, and the one with the yellow ribbon was the doll she made for herself. I look at these and think of her every day.

Manning Clarke Centre Theatre 5 • Building 26A • ANU Campus
James Der Derian, is probably the most expert person in Australia on the subject of the great contemporary French thinker Paul Virilio. He edited the first anthology of Virilio's writing to appear in English translation. Recently he was appointed Director of the Centre of International Security Studies and Michael Hinze Chair at the University of Sydney.
The forthcoming exhibition at the Drill Hall Gallery, curated by gallery director Terence Maloon, is entitled "Velocity". Artists in the exhibition all explore the implications of our increasingly sped-up lives and the effects that the revolution in information technology has wrought upon our world. The changes include alterations in our social transactions, in our ways of waging war and keeping peace, how we are disposed to regard "others", our impact on the environment- these are all grand Virilian themes.

I'm taking calcium supplements as I'm lactose intolerant, and can not handle dairy. I take 2 600mg tablets twice a day with 2, 1000mg tablet of vitamin D3. I have both osteoarthritis, and osteoporosis. Do to the fact I can not drink dairy.
Good strategy to include the Vitamin D to complement the calcium. There is a misconception that dairy os the only good source of dietary calcium. Here are more great sources if you are concerned abot calcium supplements!
The article was very informative, the baked beans, oatmeal, and nuts, I can handle. The soybeans, and tofu, because I'm hypothyroid, are not good for me.
The Greens, collard etc. because of a vitamin K issue and being on warfarin, could screw up my INR. ( I also, take a vitamin K pill, prescribed by my doctor along with the warfarin)

Sunday morning I woke up in crazy amounts of pain in my left shoulder, chest, and neck. I couldn't reposition myself in bed where I wasn't in pain. I had light pain in my lower abdomen, but it was the chest pain that was agonizing. Knowing the warning signs of AMI (acute myocardial infaction aka heart attack) Taylor rushed me over to St. Mary's in Livonia.
After two EKG's, an IV, shots of dilaudid and toradol, two chest X-rays, an ultrasound, and five hours...I was diagnosed with an 8-cm hemorrhagic ovarian cyst that had ruptured. Apparently the fluid from the cyst was irritating some nerves that go into my upper body, which is called referred pain. Unfortunately, all of the pressure from the ultrasound made the actual ovary hurt even more, with more fluid leakage. I've been on vicodin and bedrest since I got home. I hope to feel well enough to go to work tomorrow, but for now I'm laying in bed. I've got a follow-up appointment with my primary care doctor this afternoon...hopefully I can muster up the energy to shower before then.

Border Guards in EP intercept 29 infiltrators
Border Guards in the Eastern Province have intercepted 29 infiltrators during last six months, according to the semi annual report for 1435 AH conducted by the Border Guards of Eastern Province. The majority of these infiltrators were found to be of Asian descent.
Border Guards also foiled two attempts by people smugglers, resolved 11 person-transfer cases and stopped 201 immigrant boats for maintaining violations of law. Conversely, rescue teams also saved 37 persons of different ages and nationalities from drowning, while eight drowned at sea while swimming in restricted waters.
Media spokesman for Border Guards in the Eastern province, Omar bin Mohammed Al-Aklabi said, the numbers of infiltrators and drowning accidents' victims have been reduced at this year as result of the border Guards' efforts to raise awareness among beach visitors of marine safety.
"The Female Committee for Marine Safety's activities also played a big role in raising awareness through various events and lectures highlighting importance of the marine safety," he added.
"The Border Guards in the Eastern Province usde all possible means to inform the public about the dangers associated with the beach shores, in order to protect the lives of Saudis and expats alike", he said.
Naval patrols conducted by the Saudi Border Guards resulted in the rescuing of 12 sailors who were stranded at sea off Alkhobar last June when their boat's engine stalled. The patrolmen also saved an Indian resident from drowning at Al-Mahar Beach. The man was suffering from fatigue and was too exhausted to swim back to the shore. The patrol reached him in time and provided first-aid treatment, thereby saving his life.

Britain considering joining NAFTA as EU trade deal looks unlikely
Oct 10, 2017 Business 2725 By Barakat Husseini
- Britain considering joining NAFTA as EU trade deal looks unlikely.
- U.S. is biggest single destination for British exports.
- The EU is Britain's biggest single export market.
According to the Daily Telegraph (UK), Britain may be forced to seek trading alliance with NAFTA as Brexit discussions appear to be tougher than expected.
Britain is currently negotiating the terms of its divorce from
the EU though Prime Minister Theresa May is pushing to move onto discussions about a major free trade deal with the world's biggest trading bloc.
As time draws nearer towards the Brexit deadline in 2019, senior British officials are seriously contemplating what the country's fate would be should they exit the European Union without a clear sense of direction economically.
The EU is Britain's biggest single export market, accounting for about 50 percent of goods exports in August. The United States was the single biggest destination for British exports, accounting for 14 percent in August.
As a result, it would make sense that the United Kingdom may want to deal directly with the U.S. through NAFTA.
