"The Sound of Music" has been sweet to Laura Benanti. In 1998 at the age of just 18, she made her Broadway debut as Maria in a revival of the Rodgers & Hammerstein musical, but it was her role last month as Maria's rival, the jilted Elsa Schrader, in NBC's "The Sound of Music Live!," that brought this perennially on-the-cusp actress and singer to the brink of mainstream stardom.
"I have never felt so much love come my way in my entire career, which is hilarious to me," said the 34-year-old during a recent interview at her cozy Upper West Side apartment, decorated with a twinkly Christmas tree and fuzzy snowmen pillows.
Though Benanti is a firmly established star in the theater, having won a featured actress Tony for the 2008 revival of "Gypsy" and earning praise for diverse roles in shows such as "Nine" and "Women on the Verge of a Nervous Breakdown," the Dec. 5 telecast was a surprise hit that generated 18.6 million viewers and brought her a crop of new admirers.
"People recognize me now in a way that they haven't before. I was walking in the park and a girl said to me, 'You're the lady from the TV. I like you so much,'" Benanti said.
"The lady from TV" will be back onstage Wednesday and Thursday at the Catalina Bar & Grill in Hollywood, where she'll perform a sampling of songs from her first solo album, "In Constant Search of the Right Kind of Attention." The record features an eclectic mix of show tunes, pop-music covers, and even a whimsical original, "The Ukulele Song," written by Benanti and inspired by Marilyn Monroe's sexy strumming in "Some Like It Hot."
Recorded live at 54 Below in New York, "In Constant Search of the Right Kind of Attention" is also distinguished by Benanti's witty onstage banter, including self-deprecating jokes about her track record for starring in ill-fated TV shows.
Benanti was easily the best thing about NBC's short-lived, 1960s-set "Mad Men" clone "The Playboy Club," which aired for just three weeks in fall 2011. In a part that traded on her glamorous looks and distinctly Old Hollywood charm, she played an aging (the term is used loosely) bunny and singer at the famed Chicago nightclub.
Benanti said she gravitates toward roles in period pieces because of the layered performances they require.
"People now have emotional diarrhea all the time. We know what we all think at any given moment," she said. "But if you look back in our history, there was etiquette, there was a way that people had to behave. I like to play a character who is being forced to behave a certain way but feeling something completely different underneath. To me that is the most interesting and complex character."
In 2012, she went contemporary opposite Matthew Perry in the sitcom "Go On," in which she played the uptight leader of a grief support group. It was canceled after one season despite a heavy promotional push from NBC.
Benanti made light of her small-screen losing streak in a memorable number at last year's Tonys, where she and fellow Broadway-stars-cast-in-doomed-TV-shows Megan Hilty ("Smash") and Andrew Rannells ("The New Normal") lamented the difficulties of making the transition to Hollywood.
"Television sucks," she belted out in between exaggerated swigs of whiskey. (That Benanti has a wicked sense of humor will not be a surprise to anyone who follows her on Twitter [@LauraBenanti], where she displays a gift for one-liners such as, "Do people who say 'cooking relaxes me' know about not cooking?")
Comedic though it was, the performance highlighted the somewhat inexplicable fact that Benanti, a performer blessed with both beauty and versatility, hasn't become a bigger mainstream star. As the Daily Beast's Kevin Fallon recently opined, "Benanti should be a household name by now."
But the actress is more ambivalent about the fame game. "I don't think I'm the type of person that could go to the grocery story and have paparazzi take pictures and have people be like, 'She looks terrible.' I'm too sensitive," she said. "But I do sometimes feel like 'what more do I have to do?'"
For now, Benanti is happy to mix it up between concerts, theater and TV guest spots. In April she'll appear onstage in a limited run of Frank Loesser's "The Most Happy Fella" at New York's City Center, and this spring she'll guest star on Showtime's "Nurse Jackie." Though she's mum about what the part entails, she admits to getting a bit star-struck around Edie Falco, an effect she calls "entering the white room."
And should producers Neil Meron and Craig Zadan stage another live television musical on NBC this year, as they've hinted, Benanti will be the first to sign up. (Her suggestions? "My Fair Lady," "The Music Man" or "Mary Poppins.")
Just don't expect her to play the wide-eyed ingenue anytime soon.
"So boring," she said. "Not interested."

Great pics!
Man, really want to know how can you be that smart, lol…great read, thanks.
Yes, tax cuts for the wealth is truly what's sinking the ship. Not the myriad of other entitlement benefits, it's the tax cuts on the people that already pay 70%+ of the Federal Income.
The people… who pay 70% of the federal income… do you not see the problem with that statement?
10% of people think they are in the top 1% when it comes to income; They all vote republican.
Sarcasm is a douche, enough said.

If you've followed the travails of the digital music market, even casually, you've probably picked up at least a passing sense that the whole process of licensing music copyrights can be... complicated. But you probably thought that, like many jobs, it's all quite routine if that's what you do for a living. Sadly, it's not, as illustrated by an ongoing, seven-year bureaucratic proceeding of the kind that might seem familiar to Kafka.
The Copyright Office has been trying since 2001 to sort out issues surrounding the compulsory licensing of music. "What issues are those," you ask, "and how could they possibly take seven years to sort out?" That's a good question.
If you want to, say, open a new digital download store of your own, you need to secure permission from two groups: one that controls the copyright to the sound recording (usually a music label) and one that controls the copyright to the lyrics and melody (usually a music publisher).
The issues involved with this deceptively simple process are legion: if your store streams on-demand songs, do you need a performance license or a reproduction license? Do the copies made in RAM on the server side count as "copies" in the sense that they need to be licensed? What about RAM copies on the client side? Et cetera, et cetera, ad nauseam.
The Copyright Office has been trying to clarify the issues, making it clear that music stores can pay a government-mandated royalty rate and take out a compulsory license that covers everything they need to run a business. But in the course of the proceeding, the Copyright Office looks set to rule on some fairly technical issues, such as server-side copies, that a host of consumer groups argue should be left to the courts.
The EFF, Public Knowledge, the Center for Democracy & Technology, Consumers Union, US PIRG, and the CCIA joined forces to file a response (PDF) to the Copyright Office's proposed new rules yesterday.
According to EFF attorney Fred von Lohmann's explanation, "The issues are fantastically complex (even most copyright experts are perplexed by the morass surrounding digital music licensing)." Given this complexity, the groups would prefer the Copyright Office simply clarify the broader contours of the compulsory licensing debate at the heart of the case and leave the rest to be decided by courts on a case-by-case basis.
Should the Copyright Office weigh in on buffer copies and whether server-side copies count as "phonorecords" or not, the entire rule-making procedure could be undermined in the future if a judge rejects these narrow claims. As the filing puts it, "Should future judicial rulings reject CO interpretations contained in the final rule, those rulings could cast doubt on the rule as a whole."
"The question of the Copyright Office's regulatory authority is unclear, so it would be better served to let Congress and the courts settle the buffer issue rather than enter a legal morass," said Sherwin Siy, a staff attorney for Public Knowledge. "This is one of the fundamental issues for the digital age, and we think the legal process has already started to give us the answer to the question of the legal standing of buffer copies under copyright law."
If the whole debate sounds esoteric, it turns out it has quite practical consequences. The recent legal wrangling over Cablevision's network DVR, for instance, turned in part on the question of whether Cablevision's internal 1.2-second TV buffer was an unlawful copy of the video material in question. (The court said it was not.)
Given the fact that a lawsuit is one likely result of the Copyright Office's work, the EFF and other groups don't want the entire compulsory license clarification to be weakened by further rulings on buffer copies and related technical matters. Such issues are only now generating an emerging body of law and should be left to the courts or Congress until more consensus is reached, says the filing.

Fast-acting enzymes with two fingers: Protein structurally and dynamically explained
Researchers at the RUB and from the MPI Dortmund have uncovered the mechanism that switches off the cell transport regulating proteins. They were able to resolve in detail how the central switch protein Rab is down-regulated with two "protein fingers" by its interaction partners. The structural and dynamic data is reported by the researchers led by Prof. Dr. Klaus Gerwert (Chair of Biophysics, RUB) and Prof. Dr. Roger S. Goody (Max Planck Institute for Molecular Physiology, Dortmund, Germany) in the Online Early Edition of the journal PNAS.
"Unlike in the cell growth protein Ras, which is regulated with only one 'finger', we have surprisingly found a two-finger switch-off mechanism in Rab. This throws a completely new light on the functioning of certain enzymes, the small GTPases, to which Rab belongs", Klaus Gerwert explains.
Switch proteins associated with various diseases
Unlike Ras proteins that regulate cell growth, Rab GTPases (also called Rab proteins) control various transport operations between different areas of a cell. If the transport system is disrupted, diseases such as obesity can occur. The Rab proteins work as a switch, just like the Ras proteins. In the "on" state, the high-energy molecule GTP is bound, in the "off" state, the lower-energy GDP. The cleavage of GTP to GDP is catalysed by the so-termed RabGAP proteins. In so doing, GTP is split into GDP and phosphate. The research team observed the underlying reaction in time and space for the first time with the highest possible atomic resolution.
First a snapshot, then a whole film
Using X-ray structure analysis, the researchers first determined the spatial structure of the protein complex. The data showed a finger of the amino acid arginine, and a second finger of glutamine. The arginine finger was already known from Ras. The glutamine finger is new and surprising. RabGAP penetrates into the GTP-binding pocket of Rab with both fingers and accelerates the GTP cleavage over five orders of magnitude. The biophysicists observed this dynamic process in real time using FTIR spectroscopy. "In contrast to X-ray structure analysis, FTIR spectroscopy not only gives us a snapshot of the reaction, but an entire film", says PD Dr. Carsten Kötting. The result: both catalytic fingers penetrate simultaneously into the GTP-binding pocket and leave it with the phosphate cleaved from the GTP.
Medically interesting mechanism
In their experiment, the researchers examined the protein Rab1b and the RabGAP TBC1D20. Other Rab proteins and RabGAPs are similar to these two representatives. "Thus, we assume that they also interact via a two-finger mechanism", Konstantin Gavriljuk speculates. The ability of the two-finger system to also switch off mutated Rab proteins, i.e. mutated GTPases, could also be medically very interesting. It would be conceivable to develop small molecules that mimic the two-finger mechanism, and thus switch off other mutant GTPases, such as Ras, which emit uncontrolled growth signals and thus are involved in tumour formation.

We've previously written about NASA Spinoff, the annual magazine published by NASA to educate the public about real-world applications of research and technology originally developed for space exploration. The Spinoff magazine is still published today, though NASA has many more avenues to sharing that information, like YouTube, Twitter, and even its Spinoff website. The Spinoff Wikipedia page claims that NASA has 1600 products in its Spinoff database, dating back to when the magazine was founded in 1976. Technologies like water purification systems, temper foam, and safety grooving on highways are well-known innovations credited to NASA. (Tang, however, is not one of them.)
At a recent visit to the Prelinger Library in San Francisco, I found a 1972 book called Space Age Spinoffs that pre-dates NASA's Spinoff publication. It's a collection of two dozen NASA inventions and stories of how they were used outside of NASA, but in the context of the early 1970s technology. That's what made this book so fascinating--some of the entries stretched the definition of practical use (lunar walkers as alternatives to wheelchairs) while others were definitely a product of the times ("G-Suit Saves a Charming Lady!"). There were entries for high-calorie space food bars (precursors to energy bars), rudimentary wireframe computer models for medical diagnoses, and even zero-gravity simulations for physical therapy. But my favorite discovery was a invention created for firefighters that used NASA-grade explosives: the Jet-Axe.
The Jet-Axe, a very real product made by a company called Explosive Technology (seriously!), was intended for use to punch precise holes in walls, doors, and other obstacles. Instead of using a normal axe to try to smash through a steel garage door, for example, firefighters could hang the Jet-Axe--which was a essential a packaged explosive--on the door and trigger an explosion to punch a rectangular or circular hole. These holes would be used for ventilation of hazardous fumes or for forcible entry into buildings.
According to a government issued document about the Characteristics of Non-Military Explosives, The Jet-Axe was filled with between two and six ounces of RDX (aka cyclonite), which was developed as a stronger-than TNT explosive. Explosive Technology may have underestimated the volatility of its product, and according to one Firefighter historian, the Jet-Axe was removed from use after they started unexpectedly going off in ladder trucks.
A few more photos of the Jet-Axe from the Spinoffs book below, including a print advertisement for the Jet-Axe in a Fire Engineering trade publication.

DREAM TEAM: From left, Gorrindo, Braaten, Schlozman and Beresin
After years of planning and thanks to the help of generous donors, The Clay Center for Young Healthy Minds: Developing Resilience through Engagement, Awareness and Media (DREAM) is a reality.
The Clay Center is an online resource aimed at educating parents and other caregivers about the mental health needs of children, teens and young adults who struggle with behavioral, emotional and/or learning challenges. While based at the MGH, the center will foster collaborations between Harvard Medical School and experts from regional and national mental health organizations.
"Our mission is education," says Gene Beresin, MD, director of the MGH Child and Adolescent Psychiatry Residency Training Program, who serves as executive director of The Clay Center. "We want to provide a strong, virtual community to support the mental health needs of young people and their families. We know the majority of psychiatric disorders begin in young adulthood, but if we can catch them early, there is a better chance of preventing hardship later."
The Clay Center's website offers a wealth of information including "Where to turn," a comprehensive list of services, as well as a variety of blog posts –
many supplemented by videos – by MGH clinicians to address parenting concerns categorized by age group. Topics range from "Giving a 2-year-old a 15-minute time-out" to "What if my child has an anxiety disorder?" The center's outreach efforts involve social media, partnerships with media outlets, original podcasts, education forums and collaborations with a number of specialists across Partners HealthCare and the hospital, including those within the MassGeneral Hospital for Children.
Beresin and a core group from the
MGH Department of Psychiatry form the DREAM team – Ellen Braaten, PhD, associate director; Tristan Gorrindo, MD, managing director; and Steven Schlozman, MD, associate director. Psychiatric disorders are more common than almost any disorder in medicine, and one in
four people will be affected by mental illness during their lives, says Beresin. But despite
that prevalence, the stigma of mental health remains widespread.
Beresin speaks in the Ether Dome.
The team recognized a lack of trustworthy, public information related to mental illness and wellness and created The Clay Center as a way to help increase awareness, promote resilience and combat public misconception. "What better place to provide a trusted resource for information than the MGH?" Beresin says. "All the public may see about mental illness is that it is associated with violence; they hear very little about resilience. We all face hardships, but not all of us know how to deal with them; or perhaps, more importantly, how to prevent them."
On Sept. 24, MGH faculty, patients, local business owners, state officials and center donors Elizabeth Gail Hayden, and Landon and Lavinia Clay, gathered in the Ether Dome to celebrate the center's official launch. "By empowering youths and training adults to recognize signs of mental illness, we can strengthen young people's resilience and eradicate the social scar associated with mental illness," said Landon Clay.

Feb 2 (Reuters) - Record crowds of more than 179,000 at the Phoenix Open on Saturday had plenty to celebrate during an action-packed third round as their favourite son, Phil Mickelson, charged into a commanding six-stroke lead.
Twice champion Mickelson, who attended the nearby Arizona State University, piled up seven birdies in a flawless seven-under-par 64 at the sun-splashed TPC Scottsdale to strengthen his hold on the PGA Tour event.
The loudest roar of the day came after the American left-hander struck a nine-iron to inside two feet at the par-three 16th where nearly 20,000 fans were crammed into the massive grandstands surrounding the "noisiest hole in golf".
When Mickelson tapped in the birdie putt to move five ahead of the field, the decibel level again spiked as further cheers echoed around the course.
"It's hard to describe," Mickelson, who ended the day by tying the tournament's 54-hole record of 24-under 189, told Golf Channel of the atmosphere inside the ropes at the Phoenix Open.
"It's one of those things you just need to experience with the way the people are here and the size of the crowds at this tournament, unique to any event on Tour.
"It's pretty cool and to have gone to school (university) here, the way they treat me, it's awesome."
Earlier in the day, the fans packed around the 16th hole were treated to an impromptu display of football kicking by Padraig Harrington after the Irishman had eagled the 15th to trim Mickelson's lead, briefly, to three shots.
As the crowd erupted with chants of "Ole, Ole, Ole", triple major winner Harrington place-kicked an American football from the tee and then punted the next few before setting off toward the green.
After Harrington had two-putted from 15 feet for a rock solid par, cheers of "Paddy, Paddy, Paddy" reverberated across the green.
"I have actually thrown an American football before but I've never kicked one before," Harrington said. "I attempted to throw one and I know my throwing is so poor I had better start kicking it."
The footballs were official Super Bowl models and provided by Harrington's equipment manufacturer, Wilson.
"When I kicked a couple out of my hands, I pulled the first couple because I wasn't used to it, then I hit one sweet and actually kicked it over the grandstand," the Dubliner said.
"Once you get used it to it, it's okay," smiled the Irishman, whose 63 was the day's best score and lifted him into a share of third place at 16 under, a distant eight strokes behind the pacesetting Mickelson.
FedExCup champion Brandt Snedeker was alone in second at 18 under after shooting a 65, though his six-birdie display was not good enough to close the gap on the tournament leader
"Obviously you need to shoot low if you want to catch Phil right now," said the fast-talking Snedeker, who has twice finished in the top three in his first three PGA Tour starts of the year.
"Any time you shoot six under par on a golf course you're gaining ground, unfortunately I didn't do that today on Phil.
"I've got to go out and shoot something low tomorrow and hope Phil doesn't have quite as good a day as he's had the last three," added Snedeker, a four-times winner on the PGA Tour. (Reporting by Mark Lamport-Stokes in Los Angeles; Editing by Greg Stutchbury)

Artists, Writers, Poets, Deviants.
We want you!
Odyssey II is the second mass collaboration event to be conceived on deviantART this time under the watchful gaze and guiding hand of none other than Clive Barker - - the master of fantastical narratives. The result will be published next year in digital and traditional book form.
Read about the Project and participate in the creative event of the new millennium (before it ends, of course, with the apocalypse). Here is the current prompt inspired by the latest Odyssey II chapter chosen by Clive.
Prompt for Chapter 4
The invasion like no other is on, and we are witness with players whose unique perspectives and goals open up a world of possibilities. This invasion is viral, like other plagues of our times, but the virus is sentient and Paul battles to free his body not just of a deadly encroaching poison but possession by a growing evolving parasite of unknown origin. Does he presently bear within his own body his "son" – or his cannibalistic assassin? His only ally, a savage young woman named Maya who is ostensibly warring against the secret viral invasion, may be suffering possession, perhaps unknown even to herself. And the possessing intelligence may be the "sister" of the alien being whose spawn now grows inside Paul, a spawn she would for unknown reason seek to destroy (anonymously).
Chapter Four demands plotting and propulsion! Who are these sisters and where do they come from, with one launching a viral invasion against humanity and one, perhaps, fighting her? Is Maya possessed or still in control of her full faculties – just what these are and whom she works for not yet revealed to us. And what of Paul's untenable mental and physical situation? He occupies that space from which mad seers, monsters and heroes are born (and sacrificed). The wildest elements have been whipped into our Storytellers' cauldron. Now let's crank our thinking brains to turbo-puree and cook up something palatable to the most discerning of connoisseurs of mystery and imagination.
Odyssey II is on

"Sir, any such information would be confidential. But there has been no report of anyone having a 'fit' or 'seizure' this morning. Now, please step aside!"
"No, no. I'm sorry." Paul backed away, suddenly aware that the queue behind him was becoming a small, angry crowd. A policeman stood nearby, radio held to his lips. Someone coughed, "Nutter," as he staggered away from the kiosk and up towards the London streets.
He scanned the crowd surging into the station, hoping to see the shock of red hair and the deep brown of the jacket. A hand gripped his left forearm.
"Is he here? Did you find him?" A man, maybe fifty, stared at Paul with pleading, mud-colored eyes. The close-cropped, salt-and-pepper hair and hangdog features sparked Paul's memory: it was the man with the belt. The wo
Odyssey II Submission: Chapter OneCHAPTER ONE: WORLD'S END
God gave us memory so that we might have roses in December. J.M. Barrie
The young redhaired woman was admiring herself in a full-length mirror. The vintage dress she was modeling reflected her fondness for the antique. She still laughed to think of how as a teenager she'd wandered from Victoria Station all the way down to the World's End area of the King's Road, somehow naively thinking that some glittering remnant of a 1960s storefront would magically appear.
A casual observer might have placed her in her late 20s or early 30s, with a sly smile that suggested a rare intelligence bubbling just below the surface. It was there to note or no; most did not and would discover that they'd badly misjudged her abilities. There were countless fresh-faced office boys who, upon attempting to engage her in some local gossip or office smut, found themselves galloping away with their tails (or other parts) between
ConvergencePaul hid behind the darkness of his eyelids summoning the courage and strength to open them. The pain in his head was clearing but he watched the room spin as the churning in his stomach made him retch.
"Good to see you awake."
The voice snapped Paul from his delirium and he pushed himself to sitting. A frightfully well-dressed man sat in a large leather chair near the foot of the bed.
"Who the fuck are you? Paul demanded.
"I'm Doctor Bailey." he said.
Paul fought back the urge to vomit as he scratched at the IV needle taped to his arm.
"Where am I? How long have I been here?"
"It's rather...complicated." Bailey replied. "You collapsed on the pavement in front of your hotel. You were taken to hospital and we've been looking after you."
Paul didn't like the doctor's hesitation. There was a malevolence in Bailey's voice that kept Paul's heart and mind racing.
"A little over a fortnight."
Paul was on the verge of panic. He wanted to scream - to RUN<
Patient/ Doctor ConfidentialityPaul leaned against the bathroom wall as the room seemed to tilt. He tried to climb out of the shower, gripping frantically at the shower curtain but fell to the floor. Chyme bubbled up in the back of his throat as his body was racked with deep convulsions. A deep pain seared through his leg. He fought to keep his eyes focused on something. Anything.
There was a scream. And the outline of a black, patent-leather heel.
When Paul awoke he was in a brightly lit room, a tube running out of the crook in his arm. There was a faint muttering of voices, pattering feet, and a beeping noise. The pain in his leg had subsided to a dull ache. He glanced around the room. The tube in is his arm was connected to a drip bag hanging on a metal rack; it was filled with a cloudy-white liquid.
He was about to reach up and take the bag down to inspect it when some rustling made him halt. Behind a bleach white curtain he could see another cot, and that someone was stirring. There came a low guttural sound. T
Odyssey II Chapter 2He stopped in front of the hotel. The man could feel that his chosen was up there. Yes, that human who had so kindly lain him on his lap and allowed him to give him The Gift. He would spread it and be a perfect catalyst, this man.:thumb335362387:
The plan was proceeding perfectly. Everything would run smoothly, so long as the human survived this change that he was undergoing. Of course, he had no doubt the human would. As he'd gone through the seizure that came with passing on The Gift, the red-haired man had sensed the human's strength. He knew this would work.
However... If they decided to intervene...
No they were completely unaware.
Better get moving anyway, he thought.
Without hesitation, the red-headed man advanced towards the building, his heart beating rapidly as he crossed the threshold into the lobby. He could hear his chosen human's heart beating rapidly. His slight smile turned to a grin, and his eyes flashed a bright silver. Yes, this was it.
Symbiote, if You Please"Paul? This is your name?"
He looked at Maya first, but no, the voice couldn't have come from her. This one was much deeper, a man's he thought. He craned his neck, looking to put a body to this disembodied speaker.
"Paul, listen to me. Do not respond to me, or they may take action against us. If they knew I was speaking to you, they would not hesitate to kill us both on the spot."
Paul held his breath. It couldn't be. Was the voice coming from inside his head?
The voice went on. "I understand your confusion but there isn't much time. These people, the ones who have captured us, they will not allow you to leave here. They mean to keep you here Paul, so that they can study me."
This was too much. Paul could hardly piece together what the lady, Maya, had said. A sentient organism had taken up residence inside him? And now it was talking to h

It hadn't taken Maya long to locate him. She said she hadn't been off the trail of the creature inside him since she'd first encountered it three years ago. It was her job to fight off the invasion that was taking place right under our noses and inside our bodies.
It was a big circle, someone puked on him then he puked on someone else.
But the guy he puked on in the tube wouldn't be releasing the poison to anyone else. Maya had handpicked him while they were waiting for the train. 'See if you can get it on him,' she told him. 'He'll make a good host and will carry the strain to term so I can finally stop all this running around and chasing one person after another.' Then she handed him the ipecac.

Customer Reviews
Southern Living Magazine Subscription
Southern Living magazine has been in my life for as long as I can remember. As a child, I would spend hours poring over my mom's collection, letting my imagination run wild. I would choose house plans and home interior designs that I loved, pretending I was all grown up with a family of my own. In fact, I still have tear-outs from issues that date back to the early 80's!
When I moved away to college, my mom continued to save old copies of the magazine for me to thumb through when home for a visit. As time went on, I became more interested in different sections of the magazine, particularly food, travel and gardening.
Through the years I've torn out many articles regarding travel through the south and have followed several of their recommendations, most recently using a feature on Savannah, Georgia as a guide in building my own trip itinerary.
Once I became a homeowner, the gardening and landscaping tips became a lifesaver, as I definitely was NOT born with a green thumb! From caring for herbs to creating an arrangement of perennials in the flower bed, Southern Living has helped me bring beauty to our home, both inside and out. But most of all, my favorite aspect of the magazine, above all others is the food. Their recipes have never once let me down. In fact, many of them show up on my table over and over again, which is saying a lot coming from someone who always enjoys trying new things.
Unlike when I use recipes from other magazines, I've never had to tweak a dish to make it better, or ever felt the need for a "trial run" before serving to guests. With Southern Living, every dish I've made has been a hit, so it has become one of the most reliable sources I turn to for dinner inspiration!
If you love food and cooking magazines then I suggest you check out the current Southern Living magazine subscription deals going on at Magazines.com. And be sure to follow my culinary adventures on my blog at www.eat-drink-smile.com and on Twitter @betheats!

At the 2007 Japanese Grand Prix, his sixth F1 race, Sebastian Vettel rammed into Mark Webber's car, taking them both out of the race. The characteristically blunt Australian wasn't happy-and was yet to learn how quickly kids grow up.
This is what Webber said after the race:
Well, it's kids, isn't it? Kids with not enough experience, doing a good job, then they fuck it all up.
In 2009, Vettel joined Webber at Red Bull, finishing second in the championship, ahead of fourth-placed Webber. Last year, at the Turkish Grand Prix, he looked like his rookie self when he repeated his move on his now-teammate, who had been leading the race, taking himself out of the running and punting Webber back to third place. Then, in a sudden end-of-season renaissance, the kid with not enough experience suddenly grew up and pipped Mark Webber to the title, becoming F1's youngest-ever world champion. Well, it's kids, isn't it?

Wonderful vehicle
By clio on Monday, February 13, 2012I have always had 4WD and had to step down. I do love everything about the Traverse except maybe the dash items. I have all of the bells and whistels but the clock is inconvenient and too small when you have the navigation or radio info on. the compass is VERY difficult to see at a glance and only on when the nav is on. the outside temp is only where the driver can see it and only on a specific view of options. otherwise, AWESOME!!!

Best vehicle I have owned
By Pink007 on Tuesday, July 21, 2009I love this vehicle - I owned a Durango before this and there is no comparison. The kids love it, the hubby loves it and so do I. I like that it is easy to park, pack my groceries in and take the kids to football practice. I can also haul all the in-laws if I want too. Awesome vehicle - wouldn't trade it for anything.

Excellent automobile
By Papa on Thursday, November 03, 2016Only negative is that the Wi-Fi and navigation options are oversold and mis-leading. I pay for the Sirius separately and pay monthly for navigation but the navigation is very limited. I went to Chicago to visit my son and ran out of data half way thru the trip. We contacted customer service on the trip and they were not helpful at all.

It is not uncommon for the radiator to develop a coolant leak. A leaking radiator will require replacement. When a leaking radiator is replaced the entire cooling system should be inspected and if any additional leaks are found they should be repaired also.
Overheating can cause severe engine damage. If the engine begins to overheat it is recommended to stop at the first available location and have your vehicle towed to a repair shop.

Zipp's 454 NSW Carbon Clincher is radical by design, evolutionary by nature. In the natural world, creatures are honed over generations to achieve a competitive edge within their environment. The result of this natural design process is adaptation − new shapes and forms that achieve a higher degree of efficiency and control.
Utilizing the principles of the emerging science of biomimicry, Zipp engineers studied the environment around them for instances of how nature solved similar problems of speed, control, and efficiency for the next generation of Zipp wheels. Think of a humpback whale's fast but graceful movements thanks to the special features on the leading edge of its pectoral fins, or the unique micro texture of a shark's skin, which gives it the ability to glide effortlessly through the water. These structures inspired Zipp advanced development engineers to, for the first time, systematically apply biomimicry to solve the complex challenge of designing a wheel that reduces both aerodynamic drag and side force.
The most visually striking and functionally important innovation in the handcrafted 454 NSW is Sawtooth™.
This patented new biomimetic 53/58mm-deep rim shape achieves something conventional aero wheels cannot; it simultaneously reduces both aerodynamic drag and side force for the ultimate in AeroBalance™. Sawtooth™ accomplishes this with a series of patented fin-shaped Hyperfoil™ nodes along the inner diameter of the rim that work together with our new HexFin™ ABLC dimples for improved airflow.
The result is Zipp's highest performing wheelset ever realized with wind tunnel proven aero-drag reduction and reduced side force at all wind yaw angles. This is important because higher wind yaw angles are where bike handling is most affected by the wind.
The 454 NSW's undulating Sawtooth™ rim architecture with HyperFoils™ represents the next evolution of the Sawtooth™ ABLC dimple technology found on all of Zipp's NSW wheels. The HyperFoils™ and HexFin™ ABLC dimples help to stabilize handling in gusting wind by increasing wind vortex shedding frequency. Lower frequency shedding produces larger, more powerful vortices. In cycling terms, this unstable situation is often referred to as "buffeting." The higher frequency vortex shedding produced by Sawtooth™ creates a greater number of smaller, less powerful, yet more predictable vortices leading to greater wheel stability.
This added stability translates into greater rider control, thereby saving energy that is typically expended trying to hold a line in gusting wind. The result is a faster, more confident riding experience whether you are laying down power or descending sinuous mountain roads. Providing extra confidence, Zipp's industry leading Carbon Clincher technology is durable and reliable, with no heat-related failures.
The 454 NSW also features our industry leading silicon carbide Showstopper™ brake track that allows you to brake later with more stopping power and greater control regardless of weather conditions or the length of the descent. Zipp's ImPress™ NSW graphics technology, which prints graphics directly onto the rim, reduces weight and helps the HexFin™ ABLC dimples to do their aerodynamic job while elevating the wheel's visual allure to new heights.
Making use of our NSW-exclusive Cognition™ hubset, 454 NSW® rolls efficiently whether you are pedaling or coasting. Our Axial Clutch™ technology allows the freehub's ratcheting mechanism to deliver half the mechanical drag of conventional three pawl hubs. Assembled with Swiss bearings made to our exacting specifications, the Cognition™ hubset is as robust as it is fast.
Each Indianapolis-made 454 NSW® rim requires 12 hours to create and represents a true blending of hand craftsmanship and advanced manufacturing techniques. After each rim is laid up, molded, drilled, printed, and inspected, every wheel is assembled and tensioned entirely by hand in Indianapolis. 454 NSW® rims are laced to our Portuguese-made Cognition hubs using Belgian Sapim® CX-Ray spokes and Secure Lock nipples for unmatched performance and reliability that is made to last.

WASHINGTON (AP) — A Democratic aide says the White House and congressional Republicans have reached an agreement to avert the so-called fiscal cliff.
The measure would extend Bush-era tax cuts for family incomes below $450,000 and briefly avert across-the-board spending cuts set to strike the Pentagon and domestic agencies this week.
Vice President Joe Biden was set to sell the agreement to Senate Democrats at a meeting at the Capitol on Monday night.
The aide required anonymity because he wasn't authorized to speak publicly.
WASHINGTON (AP) — The House will miss the midnight Monday deadline lawmakers set for voting to avoid the "fiscal cliff."
House Republicans notified lawmakers that the chamber will vote Monday evening on other bills. They say that will be their only votes of the day.
President Barack Obama and Senate Republican leader Mitch McConnell said Monday they are near a deal to avoid wide-ranging tax increases and spending cuts — the fiscal cliff — that take effect with the new year.
Both men said they were still bargaining over whether — and how — to avoid $109 billion in cuts to defense and domestic programs that take effect on Wednesday.
It remained unclear whether the Senate would vote Monday.
Congress could pass later legislation retroactively blocking the tax hikes and spending cuts.

Agonizing close to a New Year's Eve compromise, the White House and congressional Republicans agreed Monday to block across-the-board tax increases set for midnight, but held up a final deal as they haggled away the final hours of 2012 in a dispute over spending cuts.
"It appears that an agreement to prevent this New Year's tax hike is within sight," President Barack Obama said in an early-afternoon status report on negotiations. "But it's not done."
Senate Republican Leader Mitch McConnell — shepherding final talks with Vice President Joe Biden — agreed with Obama that an overall deal was near. In remarks on the Senate floor, he suggested Congress move quickly to pass tax legislation and "continue to work on finding smarter ways to cut spending" later next year.
Democrats declined the offer, at least for the time being.
While the deadline to prevent tax increases and spending cuts was technically midnight, passage of legislation within the next 72 hours — a timetable under consideration — would eliminate or minimize any inconvenience for taxpayers.
For now, more than the embarrassment of a gridlocked Congress working through New Year's Eve in the Capitol was at stake.
Economists in and out of government have warned that a combination of tax hikes and spending cuts could trigger a new recession, and the White House and Congress have spent the seven seeks since the Nov. 6 elections struggling for a compromise to protect the economy.
Even now, with time running out, partisan agendas were evident.
Obama used his appearance to chastise Congress, and to lay down a marker for the next round of negotiations early in 2013 when Republicans intend to seek spending cuts in exchange for letting the Treasury to borrow above the current debt limit of $16.4 trillion.
"Now, if Republicans think that I will finish the job of deficit reduction through spending cuts alone — and you hear that sometimes coming from them ... then they've got another thing coming. ... That's not how it's going to work at least as long as I'm President," he said.
"And I'm going to be President for the next four years, I think," he added.
Officials in both parties said agreement had been reached to prevent tax increases on most Americans, while letting rates rise on individual income over $400,000 and household earnings over $450,000 to a maximum of 39.6 percent from the current 35 percent. That marked a victory for Obama, who campaigned successfully for re-election on a platform of requiring the wealthy to pay more.
Any agreement would also raise taxes on the value of estates exceeding $5 million to 40 percent, as well as extend expiring jobless benefits for two million unemployed, prevent a 27 percent cut in fees for doctors who treat Medicare patients and likely avoid a near-doubling of milk prices.
Much or all of the revenue to be raised through higher taxes on the wealthy would help hold down the amount paid to the Internal Revenue Service by the middle class.
In addition to preventing higher rates for most, any agreement would retain existing breaks for families with children, for low-earning taxpayers and for those with a child in college.
In addition, the two sides agreed to prevent the Alternative Minimum Tax from expanding to affect an estimated 28 million households for the first time in 2013, with an average increase of more than $3,000. The law was originally designed to make sure millionaires did not escape taxes, but inflation has gradually exposed more and more households with lower earnings to its impact.
To help businesses, the two sides also agreed to extend an existing research and development tax credit as well as other breaks designed to boost renewable energy production. Details on those provisions were sketchy.
Obama's remarks irritated some Republicans.
Sen. John McCain of Arizona they would "clearly antagonize members of the House."
There was no response from Speaker John Boehner, who has been content to remain in the background while McConnell did the negotiating.
Some Democratic officials said that with his comments, he was hoping to ease the concerns of liberals in his own party who feared he had given away too much in the current round of talks over taxes.
Obama campaigned on a call for higher tax rates on income over $200,000 for individuals and $250,000 for couples, far lower than the $400,000 and $450,000 that Biden and McConnell have set.
Similarly, the pending agreement on the estate tax would allow more large estates to escape taxation than many Democrats prefer.
By late afternoon, the two sides remained separated by a stubborn dispute over spending cuts scheduled to take effect on the Pentagon and domestic programs alike.
Officials familiar with the talks said the White House has been seeking agreement to stop the cuts from taking effect, either for a period of months or a year, and wanted to count higher taxes created elsewhere in the legislation to offset the cost.
Republicans have said they are willing to delay the across-the-board cuts, but only if Obama and Democrats agree to targeted savings from government programs to take their place.

WASHINGTON (AP) — Working with Congress against a midnight deadline, President Barack Obama said Monday that a deal to avert the "fiscal cliff" was in sight but not yet finalized. The emerging deal would raise tax rates on family income over $450,000 and individual income over $400,000 a year, increase the estate tax rate and extend unemployment benefits for one year.
"There are still issues left to resolve but we're hopeful Congress can get it done," Obama said at a campaign-style event at the White House. "But it's not done."
In the building New Year's Eve drama, the parties still were at an impasse over whether to put off the automatic, across-the-board spending cuts set to take effect at the beginning of the year and if so, how to pay for that.
One official said talks were focused on a two-month delay in the across-the-board cuts but negotiators had yet to agree on about $24 billion in savings from elsewhere in the budget. Democrats had asked for the cuts to be put off for one year and be offset by unspecified revenue.
The president said whatever last-minute fixes are necessary, they must come from a blend of tax revenue and constrained spending, not just budget cuts.
Officials emphasized that negotiations were continuing and the emerging deal was not yet final. And a confident Obama, flanked by cheering middle class Americans in a White House auditorium, jabbed Congress, saying lawmakers were prone to last-minute delays.
"One thing we can count on with respect to this Congress is that if there's even one second left before you have to do what you're supposed to do, they will use that last second," he said.
Unless an agreement is reached and approved by Congress at the start of the New Year, more than $500 billion in 2013 tax increases will take effect immediately and $109 billion in cuts will be carved from defense and domestic programs
Though the tax hikes and budget cuts would be felt gradually, economists warn that if allowed to fully take hold, their combined impact — the so-called fiscal cliff — would rekindle a recession.
The current proposal in the works would raise the tax rates on family income over $450,000 and individual income over $400,000 from 35 percent to 39.6 percent, the same level as under former President Bill Clinton. Also, estates would be taxed at 40 percent after the first $5 million for an individual and $10 million for a couple, up from 35 percent to 40 percent.
Unemployment benefits would be extended for one year. Without the extension, 2 million people would lose benefits beginning in early January.
A Republican official familiar with the plans confirmed the details described to The Associated Press.
The officials requested anonymity in order to discuss the internal negotiations.
The president said his hopes for a larger, more sweeping deal have been dashed and said that such an accommodation was not possible "with this Congress at this time."
But even with this fight not finished, Obama warned Republicans, specifically, about the battles still ahead. He said he would not accept any debt-reduction deals in the new year that rely on slashing spending without raising taxes, too. Cuts alone won't happen anymore "at least as long as I'm president, and I'm going to be president for the next four years."

Welcome to the Quilting Board!
I moved this here hoping it would get seen better. Hope you don't mind. :)Originally Posted by mgrhs
I would think you could do it like a tee shirt quilt, with the stabilizer
I've been wanting to make a sweatshirt purse/totebag. A sweat shirt quilt would be very cozy.
I don't know about making a quilt out of sweaters, I bought a pillow made out of a sweater and I thought I can do that--I have lots of old sweaters.
I made one and that was it!! It was so hard to sew--just could not get my machine to sew it wound up sewing most of it by hand.
Here's the original post with some links.
I think you could probably sew the sweaters by machine by placing typing paper on the top and under the layers. That way the knitting wouldn't get caught on the foot or the feed dogs. I've done that with terry cloth for that reason and it works well for me.
Pampered Chef parchment paper is the best non sewing thing to add to your sewing room, it is not as thick as other types of paper and I think if you put it on top of the sweater it will sew fine, try it & let us know.

Problems Connecting via Ethernet after netboot
Subject description: HD Install works fine...vexing!
Ive created a prototype netbooting puppy cybercafe setup using the method described
. The setup includes a command to autoconnect using the puppy network setup wizard (I dont know which file this modifies).
At some cybercafes, the setup connects via ethernet automatically, at another it connects intermittently, and at the one Im at now, it doesnt connect at all! What happens is the browser tries to connect for about 30 seconds, and then displays "The connection has timed out". This is particularly strange as when I install exactly the same setup, not netbooted, but installed on the computers hard disks via grub, they all auto-connect fine. When netbooting, I get an ip address (i.e. 192.168.1.192) and am able to browse the bt-homehub routers admin page at 192.168.1.254, but am unable to connect to google or any other website. This persists even after I run the network setup wizard after netbooting.
Im at a loss as to what to do to test condition...could it be DNS servers, or some setting on the router? I dont know very much about any aspect of networking, what could be causing this problem and what would I do to diagnose? This is holding up the whole development of the prototype so I need to get this sorted before I can proceed. Many thanks in advance for your help. Cheers.

Ive done a little more research...and found this small snipped of linux lore
DHCP/Network Daemon Workaround
This is to prevent the client from trying to reconnect the network and killing itself. Any disconnect of the network and your client will freeze.
The following workaround involves running the dhcpcd DHCP client on startup with the -s option to use the existing kernel DHCP auto-configured IP address instead of requesting a new one. Note: This workaround assumes that eth0 is the network interface used for DHCP.
Edit /etc/conf.d/dhcpcd and append the DHCPCD_ARGS options with -s $(ifconfig eth0 | grep -o '[0-9]*\.[0-9\.]*' | head -n1)
# Arguments to be passed to the DHCP client daemon
DHCPCD_ARGS="-d -p -t 30 -h $HOSTNAME -s $(ifconfig eth0 | grep -o '[0-9]*\.[0-9\.]*' | head -n1)"
--Mikep 18:24, 9 January 2010 (EST)
Could it be that the "kernel" already has an ip address...I heard somewhere that the PXE built into the ethernet uses DHCP to find the boot server (the computer on the network offering the initrd and vmlinuz files). Perhaps the clients are not reconnecting to the router when the initial "dhdcpcd eth0" command is run at startup, perhaps the client already has an i.p. address...the one used for netbooting? I dont know
Looking into the manpage for dhcpcd the -s option is as follows
Forces dhcpcd to send second DHCP_DISCOVER message even after receiving DHCP_OFFER on the first one. Some DHCP servers expect the client to send second DHCP_DISCOVER message before replying on DHCP_REQUEST.
Maybe I need to send another "DHCP_DISCOVER" message out so that the client knows to get its internet connection from the router, rather than from the netboot server. This offers and interesting option...could the clients get their internet connection via the netboot server...this could mean that I could run
to add filtering to my cybercafe system. This would mean I would need to add a DHCP server to the PXE server, and do some "i.p. masquerading"....I really dont know what Im talking about here...just a theory.
Anyway, I have also discovered the "dhcpcd -d" command, the "d" stands for "debug", which runs dhcpcd with all kinds of interesting (but as yet unintelligible...at least to me) messages about whats actually going on when an internet connection is requested....i.e.
# killall dhcpcd
# dhcpcd -d eth0
Info, eth0: dhcpcd 3.1.8 starting
Info, eth0: hardware address = 00:1e:0b:81:b4:36

Info, eth0: no renewal time supplied, assuming 43200 seconds
Info, eth0: no rebind time supplied, assuming 75600 seconds
Info, eth0: adding IP address 192.168.1.73/24
Info, eth0: adding default route via 192.168.1.254 metric 0
Info, eth0: adding route to 169.254.0.0/16 metric 0
Debug, eth0: writing /etc/resolv.conf
Debug, eth0: writing /var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-eth0.info
Debug, eth0: exec "/etc/dhcpcd.sh" "/var/lib/dhcpcd/dhcpcd-eth0.info" "new"
Debug, eth0: forking to background
It could also be that dhcpcd is "crashing" (this was mentioned above). I notice from
this page on the puppy linux wiki
that there is an update to version 4.0.15 from the current installed version (in puppy 4.2.1ce) of 3.1.8. Perhaps this would also solve the problems.
Anyway, the saga continues, I will attempt some experiments at the cybercafe tomorrow and report back.

Well...none of those worked!!!
What I have on the desktop of the netbooted machines is icons that run scripts to launch the programs (for firefox, skype, gyachi and amsn). These display a splash screen (in the absence of an hourglass) while the application launches, however into each one Ive now inserted...
killall dhcpcd
dhcpcd eth0
This means that as soon as the user clicks on any of the icons on the desktop, the connection is made!
Not the most elegant of solutions, and in a commercial environment where time is short it did the job (maybe I see now why Microsoft dont release the windows source code?
). I would like to figure out why it doesnt connect, or even better what to put in which script to make the damn thing connect properly at startup!
