Basic Tree Maintenance Tips
Trees can frequently be taken for granted however extreme weather condition can take its toll. It is very important to keep trees healthy and attempt to prevent diseases or weather damage.
One of the very first things you can do is learn more about the trees you want to look after and their specific requirements. If you're uncertain about the type of tree you have, there are lots of resources online to help you, such as the Forestry Commission Tree Name Trail. When investigating trees, the main points to watch out for are:
- Type of soil needed
- Amount of water needed
- Specific sensitivities (drought, water, wind, etc).
When you know more about your trees, follow these 5 tips to keep your trees resilient and healthy.
Safeguard the roots.
Focus on the zone around a tree approximately where the branches extend. Roots can extend beyond this zone however this is the location where roots are more delicate. The secret is to make sure that the soil is not too compact so that roots can keep taking in water and oxygen.
Secure the bark.
Think of the bark as an armour that secures the tree. Securing the tree bark will avoid infections, diseases or insect activity. Keep an eye out for possible risks that could damage tree bark, consisting of:.
- Vehicles: trees near roads or driveways can suffer hits from tall vehicles. Eliminate lower branches to avoid damage and ensure trees show up at night.
- Sprinkler system: a spray of water that over and over again hits bark at the exact same place can trigger damage. If you utilize sprinklers to water your yard, ensure these do not directly hit trees.
- Branches: branches rubbing versus each other can trigger damage to the bark. Prune branches correctly so branches don't get entwined.
- Yard equipment: wear; t get yard devices near the tree trunks as this can trigger major damage to the bark.
Water efficiently.
Trees typically thrive well in existing wetness conditions and don't require any extra watering. Nevertheless, depending on your regional climate, you might need to water your trees during extended periods of drought. If you do need to water trees in the summer season, an occasional deep watering is preferred to a regular misting. In winter season trees shouldn't need any watering.
Prune correctly.
We've formerly written about pruning trees as it's a crucial part of tree upkeep. It's something you can do yourself if you understand exactly what you are doing, otherwise you can constantly hire an expert. The main points to keep an eye out for are:.
- Crossing branches: get rid of the smaller sized branch so the more powerful one can grow without being damaged.
- Broken and dead branches: a clean cut will assist the tree heal.
Low branches: eliminate branches that are low and are vulnerable to damage (i.e. by an impact). You can likewise eliminate low branches for visual purposes.
Keep soil healthy.
There are two methods you can ensure that the soil around your tree is rich in nutrients.
- Usage mulch. Spread a layer of mulch around your tree, about 2 to 4 inches thick. The mulch does not need to touch the trunk.
- Plant grass or some kind of ground cover. Dead plant material will decay in the ground and improve the soil. Make sure your plants can thrive in the shade and that their roots do not take on the tree.

Understanding the Incarnation
"For in the mystery of the Word made flesh, a new light of glory has shown upon the eyes of our mind, so that as we recognize in him God made visible, we may be caught up through him in love of things invisible" (Christmas Preface, 1).
The Incarnation is shrouded in mystery for us. It is a decision on the part of God to manifest his love which we can never completely understand. When theologians like Thomas Aquinas write about it, they speak of its fittingness. To say that something is fitting means that there is more good in this choice on the part of God than in any other one we can think of. What is this choice?
To answer that question it is interesting to see how debased the Christian appreciation of Christ has become in the present age. One priest said that Jesus was mixed up in his use of Scripture. When questioned about this by a parishioner, he surprisingly said, "You've got to remember: Jesus didn't have the benefit of the same religious education that we have today, with all the things that modern scholarship brings us" (Register, July 22, 1990).
Another priest flatly stated that Jesus was a sinner just like all the rest of us. Dorothy Sayers once summarized this modern attempt to sacrifice the divinity of Jesus on the altar of his humanity. In answer to the question, "Who is Christ?" she characterized the England of her day, replying: "A good man — so good as to be called the Son of God. He is to be identified in some way with God the Son. He was meek and mild and preached a simple religion of love and pacifism. He has no sense of humor. […] If we try to live like him, God the Father will let us off being damned hereafter and only have us tortured in this life instead."
None of these responses correspond in any way to the teaching of Scripture or the Tradition of the Church. St. Paul says succinctly: "Christ Jesus came into the world to save sinners" (1 Timothy 1:15). Jesus is a Savior.
Why, then, is there such an attempt to dilute the message in the present world? To say that Christ is a savior means first that there must be a common human nature which is defective and then that one must identify exactly what that defect is.
Pope Benedict has stated that in Europe today there is a dictatorship of relativism. This has ramifications in many areas of theology, especially in our ideas about Christ. If one does not think there is a common human nature, how can one discuss defects in that nature? If there is no defect, why does the human race need a Redeemer?
Catholic teaching is clear that human nature does in fact exist, and since man is composed of matter and spirit, a true understanding of human nature must respect both. Because we have a soul, we have an intellect to know the truth and a will to love the good. Nothing can satisfy this soul except knowing God as he is because of the spiritual need to know the truth. To know this and arrive at heaven, a divine aid is needed: grace. Grace allows human beings to know as God knows and love as God loves. Adam and Eve were created in this grace. They lived in constant intimacy with God before sin. This allowed them, in the words of Blessed Cardinal John Henry Newman, to: "Aim at seeing things as God sees them."
In the Original Sin, Adam and Eve had a movement towards themselves as though they could persevere in this wonderful integrity without God's aid. They lost grace, and so they lost the gifts of integrity they had received, which allowed them to look at the world from God's perceptive. The punishments for this sin included ignorance, a tendency to dominate and control their world, a weakness in the passions, and suffering and death in the body.
The human race entered a period of darkness caused by the inability of man to arrive at heaven and these weaknesses. There was no way that a human being could cure this situation, since it involved union with the infinite God. Only God could remedy this. On the other hand, only man could satisfy for the punishments in justice incurred.
Many people have always been puzzled about why God either did not keep us from sinning if we were created in such a perfect state or just cure the wound of our nature by letting us off. Neither would have corresponded to the order of divine justice. Also, God is never frustrated in his mercy, and his purpose in creating the world was his own glorification.
This greater mercy was to allow the sin so that he might cure the human race through a miracle, the union of God and man in Christ. As soon as man committed the sin and the punishments were enumerated, God promised the Redeemer. "I will put enmity between you and the woman, and between your seed and her seed; he shall bruise your head, and you shall bruise his heel" (Genesis 3:15). In man's original creation, man was joined to God in nature by grace. As a result of the sin, God now will join man to himself in person. What act of mercy or love could be greater than this?

About the journal
Aims and scope
Journal of Media Psychology (JMP) is committed to publishing original, high-quality papers which cover the broad range of media psychological research. This peer-reviewed journal focuses on how human beings select, use, and experience various media as well as how media (use) can affect their cognitions, emotions, and behaviors. Submissions must substantially advance the current state-of the art on a theoretical and/or an empirical level. To name just a few typical fields and domains of inquiry, the Journal of Media Psychology considers manuscripts dealing with research on entertainment, computer-mediated communication (including social media), human-computer interaction, e-learning, computer and video games, virtual environments, or advertising. The journal is also open to research from neighboring disciplines as far as this work ties in with psychological concepts of the uses and effects of the media. Submissions of comparative work, e.g., crossmedia, cross-gender, or cross-cultural, are encouraged. Moreover, submissions including alternative analysis procedures such as the Bayesian approach are welcome. Starting in 2015, the pre-registration of research plans will also be possible. To ensure short turn-around cycles for manuscript review and fast publication, the Journal of Media Psychology relies heavily upon electronic communication and information exchange, starting from electronic submission and continuing throughout the entire review and production process.
Tradition and innovation
The Journal of Media Psychology builds up on almost 20 years of tradition and experience in publishing high-quality research in the Zeitschrift für Medienpsychologie (ZMP). While ZMP focused on German and European media research, JMP takes up the challenges of the more globalized and globalizing media world by offering an international publication platform. JMP has an internationally renowned team of editors and reviewers from all the relevant areas of media psychology, to cover a broad spectrum of research and to ensure the highest scientific standards.

Minister of Music
Minister of Music is an office which only entered the Mennonite churches of America in the mid-20th century, and was then still unknown in Europe and elsewhere, although in some of the larger Protestant denominations it had been the practice for some time to make a professionally trained person responsible for the music program of a congregation. With the traditional Mennonite interest in music and with the growing multiple responsibilities of the pastor of a congregation, whose first responsibility it was to preach the Gospel, and to counsel and visit the members of the church, it became desirable to make one person responsible for the musical work of the congregation. At times this office also included the leadership of the young people's activities. As a rule such an individual has had some theological as well as musical training. Congregations (only General Conference Mennonite) which in 1957 employed full- or part-time ministers of music were Bethel Mennonite Church, Mountain Lake, MN; Bethel College Mennonite Church, North Newton, KS; Bethesda Mennonite Church, Henderson, NE; First Mennonite Church, Berne, IN; First Mennonite Church, Newton, KS; First Mennonite Church, Reedley, CA. In some churches which have had such an office it was vacant in 1957, and others were planning to create it.

Contacted the ProTreat® support several times and always got a helpful reply in time.
ProTreat®, an easy to use program, was invaluable in predicting operations for two refineries requiring a temporary tie together of their primary and TGU amine systems saving the costs of unit shutdowns.
ProTreat® is the best program for my line of work that I could ever imagine. I can find operating problems trusting the ProTreat® model. ProTreat® predicts performance amazingly well. ProTreat® allows us to predict what we would measure the next day after making operating moves. In every case, the plant responded exactly as ProTreat® had predicted.
The accuracy of ProTreat's predictions of solvent loading and CO2 slip are unmatched in the industry.
ProTreat is a user-friendly and practical tool. It helped us a lot in predicting the sizes of future amine sweetening units for new fields and thus estimating related CAPEX. The support of Optimized Gas Treating is very helpful and fast when needed.
The accuracy of ProTreat® software has allowed us to eliminate the margins of uncertainty associated with other simulators, which avoids oversizing of equipment. This was a key factor in winning two (2) recent projects.

My idea of a must-see TV network
June 16, 2009
Our eighth-grade honors English teacher had us do a daily writing. She read the papers, but never graded them. She wanted us to write to learn more about ourselves and be better writers.
It was there I dreamed of a TV job and wrote, "I'll someday own a television network, and program things people would want to watch."
Um, eighth-grade Kevin ... who asked you? Grown-up Kevin will fill his station with programs HE wants to watch. If the people don't like it ... he's rich enough to own a network. Program, watch, or get out of the way.
And if anybody questioned my shows, I'd ask back, "Why the Heck Not?" The lineup on WHN would be indicative of a desire to try something new, or steal better ideas.
Here's Thursday night's lineup on Why the Heck Not:
• 8 p.m.: Cheers: On an ESPN podcast, Kevin Wildes of the network will pitch three "half-baked ideas" to Bill Simmons. One Wildes idea is to recast old television series.
Charlie Sheen makes $850,000 per episode of "Two and a Half Men," and he gets the summer off to do movies. Make that same offer to Vince Vaughn to be the new Sam Malone. Have a ridiculous episode with Kevin Garnett, or reset it in a city other than Boston. Tell me this wouldn't be as good as ABC's "Wipeout" or Fox's "Hole in the Wall," both based on Japanese game shows. How about trying something that's worked in America before trying something that worked in Japan?
• 8:30 p.m.: Why I'm Here. I have an on-again, off-again relationship with CBS' "How I Met Your Mother," which is based on a dad telling his children how ... never mind.
Anyway, why just make it a flashback scene? Make the ending the entire episode. The second episode builds up to the first, the third to the second. Foreshadowing becomes reminiscing, and vice versa. Viewers would still follow week to week, but they'd wonder, "Why did that happen"" instead of "What will happen?"
• 9 p.m.: Stuff We Couldn't Mock. Again, I'm stealing ideas. When Conan O'Brien first came on NBC, he had a segment where he mocked events in the news preceding his show's debut.
Make it a half-review, half-comedy show. Get some low-level news host to give the particulars, then get all those comedians VH1 let go from those "I Love" shows.
• 9:30 p.m.: What If? A little bit of seriousness leading into the news, but still ridiculous enough for water-cooler talk the next day. Take an event in history, change one monumental fact, and let a rotating panel of experts hash it out like Bill Maher does.
I'll even suggest the first four episodes. What If ... the Boston Celtics won the 1997 draft lottery and got Tim Duncan ... NBC had given "The Tonight Show" to Letterman ... Andrew Johnson told his secretary of state the Alaska Purchase is a stupid idea ... Woodward and Bernstein decided they only wanted to cover sports for the Washington Post.
So with all due respect to eighth-grade Kevin, that's how it's done. Anybody who wants to start the network for me gets to hear about the next six nights of programming.

Suggestions for Dealing with Monopolizing and/or Domineering Students
Students who monopolize class discussions can overpower the group and prevent other students from contributing. Dealing with the student who dominates discussion, without alienating the student(s) or disrupting the flow of learning, is key. Consider the following:
- Have the students develop class ground rules on the first or second day of class. For more on establishing ground rules, see the CTE's Teaching Tip, Establishing Ground Rules on the First (or Second) Day of Class."
- Have two or three students act as "process observers" for a day. At the end of class or at the onset of the next, have them report their observations in terms of class participation, etc., and what suggestions they might have for improvement.
- State at the beginning of class that there will be limited time for sharing viewpoints, etc. Keep in mind, however, that this may thwart any discussion.
- Give the monopolizing individual attention during breaks or before and after class.
- While still appearing to listen to the monopolizer, prepare for the next activity and begin handing out papers. This signals to the student that you are ready to move on to another topic or activity. Be careful, however, that this doesn"t become a habit. Students who rarely respond in class may feel slighted and/or embarrassed if they are sharing something and your attention is elsewhere.
- Interject with a summary when students go off on a tangent and ask others to speak (Silberman 79).
- Take advantage of the monopolizers" pauses. Using eye contact, thank them very much and direct a question to someone else, preferably in another area of the room (Pike and Arch 56).
- Prior to asking a question, tell the students that you will be looking for "X" number of hands before you select someone. And/or, when you pose a question, ask how many students have a response and call on someone else whose hand is up.
- From time-to-time, suggest that only students who have not spoken answer a question addressed.
- On occasion, distribute a certain number of tokens or poker chips (e.g., 3) to all students and tell them that when they run out of poker chips, they cannot contribute for the remainder of the class session. This forces the monopolizer to thoughtfully reconsider when she/he will contribute to the discussion.
- You might tell the class that you have noticed that two or three students seem to participate much more than others and ask them for suggestions about what might be done to give all students a chance to participate (McKeachie 43).
- If you speak to the domineering student outside of class, tell him/her that as much as you appreciate their input, it would be helpful if they could hold some of their comments until others have been heard (McKeachie 254).
- If some students have a tendency to ask questions to get the class off track, designate a place on the board as the Parking Lot and list their questions there. Let them know that if there is time at the end, their questions will be addressed.
- Physically involve the monopolizer by giving him or her a task, such as posting group responses on flip chart paper or the board, distributing handouts, etc.
- If someone is monopolizing a small group, approach the group and squat down so that you are at eye level. Make eye contact with each group member and remind the group that they have "X" number of minutes left. Look directly at the group timekeeper and say "Please cover these two points (name them) and try to ensure that everyone in the group has contributed" (Pike and Arch 55-56).

This is for pathfinder:
The base rulebook(campaign setting) states this: Butterfly Wings: Flutters have a fly speed of 30 feet with average maneuverability, and cannot fly in medium or heavy armor. Fly becomes a class skill.
The Races of Everglow book states this: Butterfly Wings: Flutterponies have a fly speed of 30 feet (average).
I am asking because with the tribes book the Pegasus race still makes it clear to point out you cant fly in armor, and with griffion/Purrsian it doesnt point out armor restrictions in either case. So the Flutterpony race seems to be the only case here where the two books (seemingly) do not match up, which is right?
Flutterpony flight armor restriction?
Have Pathfinder or Ponyfinder rules questions, ask here!

What is going on with our college football teams this year? Do they just have way too much free time in the summer? It's true that this is not an officially sanctioned team photo—I'm not sure what it is exactly—but BYU quarterback Max Hall, tight end Dennis Pitta and (former) receiver Austin Collie are certainly not helping college football players overcome their growing reputation for turning into wannabe male models. This season really needs to start soon.
Boy, they sure do love being casual though! Think how much fun you could have, if only you had comfortable slacks like these fellas. Now, if you'll excuse me, I have to go jump in a pool.
When football is fifth on your list...well, this happens [Block U]

A man in New Mexico has been awarded $22 million after being tossed in solitary confinement for 2 years following a DWI arrest. KOB-TV's Marissa Torres reports.
A New Mexico man who said he was forced to pull his own tooth while in solitary confinement because he was denied access to a dentist has been awarded $22 million due to inhumane treatment by New Mexico's Dona Ana County Jail.
Stephen Slevin was arrested in August of 2005 for driving while intoxicated, then thrown in jail for two years. He was in solitary at Dona Ana County Jail for his entire sentence and basically forgotten about and never given a trial, he told NBC station KOB.com Tuesday night.
"[Jail guards were] walking by me every day, watching me deteriorate," Slevin said. "Day after day after day, they did nothing, nothing at all, to get me any help."
Slevin's medical problems extended beyond his dental issues, he said. His toenails started curling around his foot because they were so long, he told KOB.com. And his countless requests to see a doctor for depression medication were ignored, he said.
He said his lawsuit "has never been about the money. I've always wanted this to make a statement."
The $22 million, awarded by a federal jury Tuesday, is one of the largest prisoner civil rights settlements in U.S. history, according to KOB.com.
"I wanted people to know that there are people at The Dona Ana County Jail that are doing things like this to people and getting away with it," said Slevin, who now suffers from PTSD and believes he will have to take medication for life as a result. "Why they did what they did, I have no idea."
The mistreatment started from the moment his client was arrested, Slevin's attorney, Matt Coyte, told msnbc.com.
"He was driving through New Mexico and arrested for a DWI, and he allegedly was in a stolen vehicle. Well, it was a car he had borrowed from a friend; a friend had given him a car to drive across the country," Coyte said.
NBC News
Slevin was depressed at the time, Coyte explained, and wanted to get out of New Mexico. Instead, he found himself in jail.
"When he gets put in the jail, they think he's suicidal, and they put him in a padded cell for three days, but never give him any treatment."
Nor did they give him a trial, Coyte said. Slevin said he never saw a judge during his time in confinement.
After three days in a padded cell, jail guards transferred Slevin into solitary confinement without explanation.
"Their policy is to then just put them in solitary" if they appear to have mental health issues, Coyte told msnbc.com.
Dona Ana County officials were tight-lipped about the case, refusing to answer questions about whether any jail employees were reprimanded or fired over Slevin's treatment.
"We do not discuss personnel issues," Jess Williams, Dona Ana County's public information director, told msnbc.com.
Williams also wouldn't comment on whether the $22 million the county was ordered to pay would come from taxpayer money, saying only, "Dona Ana County will appeal the verdict."
He said no county officials would answer questions about why Slevin was held for so long without going to trial, or any other questions related to the legal parts of the case.
'Insanity builds'
While in solitary confinement, a prisoner is entitled to one hour per day out of the cell, but often times, Slevin wasn't even granted that, Coyte said. He was deprived of showers and grew fungus underneath his skin. He lost his will to even want to get out and live in the outside world, Coyte told msnbc.com.
"Your insanity builds. Some people holler or throw feces out their cell doors," he said. "Others rock back and forth under a blanket for a year or more, which is what my client did."
By the time Slevin got out of jail, his hair was shaggy and overgrown, his beard long, and his face pale and sunken, a drastic contrast from the clean-shaven booking photo taken of him when he was arrested two years prior.
"Without that picture, we couldn't have gotten where we were," Coyte said of the lawsuit.
Slevin has support from friends and his sister, Coyte said.
"That's very helpful to him. He does have people to look after him."
While Slevin spoke very briefly on-camera to KOB.com after the jury awarded him his verdict, his attorney said he is hoping for some privacy now.
"Hs life has been devoted to survival [since his release from solitary]," Coyte told msnbc.com. "He is totally inequipped; he is hollow. They've removed his humanity from him."
His suffering hasn't been in vain though, Coyte said.
"He's a brave guy. When he says it's not about the money, he really means it. He wants no one to go through what he went through. And people do, in New Mexico and across this country."

Is There Lead in Lipstick?
Is There Lead in Your Lipstick?
Ever stop to think about what's in your lipstick as you swipe it on in the morning? Good Morning America wanted to find out if lipsticks across the board were pulling a clean bill of health, and the results were . . . unexpected. After testing 22 lipsticks, ranging from drugstore buys to luxury glosses, with Underwriters Laboratories, they found that 12 of the products contained trace amounts of lead.
Slightly freaked out? Unfortunately, it's not a new issue, and it's not illegal. In essence, there is no lead limit for cosmetics in the US.
The tests showed levels that ranged from no detectable levels to 3.22 parts per million. To put it in perspective, California has a state-mandated limit for lipstick of five parts per million, so it's below even that. And overall, it's progress from 2010, when the FDA tested lipsticks and found the highest levels of lead at seven parts per million. However, watchdog groups like the Campaign for Safe Cosmetics emphasize that it is possible to manufacture lipstick sans lead, as many other brands have proved.
Good Morning America couldn't find any pattern in the types of lipsticks and lip glosses that contained lead, so the bottom line is that you should be aware, especially if you're pregnant. But many scientists claim that trace amounts of lead in lipstick is not as much of a concern. To find out what's in your makeup, check out the EWG's Skin Deep Cosmetic Database. Your lips will thank you.

I keep seeing ads for "Teach for Palestine," which I won't link, since it seems to get bad reviews. Googling I also found some other interesting stuff, like Project Hope, which I only found one review for, but it's a positive one. I doubt that there are many well-paid opportunities in the West Bank, for the same reason there aren't many well-paid opportunities in Lebanon. It's rebuilding from a war, and unlike Iraq and Libya, it has no oil. You can certainly forget about Gaza, since it's under sanctions.

This is a really good question, and often discussed in philosophy classes. The idea of freedom changes depending where I am in life. Right now...for me...freedom means the opportunity to be able to travel and move about without hindrance. Ask me, next week and it will most likely change.
Hope you're having a fantastic start to the week!

Beautiful post and an interesting question too!
I don't know for sure - freedom is all the things you have spoken about but, for me, I feel truly liberated when I can overcome my fears and ask for what I want which is so difficult such a lot of the time. So I guess the last quote resonates with me the most and I am going to try harder to live those words because...
"A life lived in fear is a life half lived"!
Thanks for sharing, Stephie x

What a thought-provoking post! What does freedom REALLY mean to me? Having time to myself. Not having to worry. Being confident in myself and my abilities.
Beautiful pictures, too!

Freedom to me is definitely in nature, traveling, time alone and making my own schedule... I really struggle with #3 because having a 9 to 5 job makes me feel very un-free. haha Hopefully be working for myself one day soon!! xo

Aha! I was having a blue night last night about something related to this. You know, what my life really is and if I am free. The boyfriend basically showed me the light, with thoughts similar to this post. :)

Oh Poppie Girl you know how to post em! Oh, how I love the pic of the couple in the clouds!
I find one of the greatest forms of freedom is being yourself! Learning to trust yourself! Life seems to flow a little smoother when you know who you are and some what knowing what you want! I try real hard not to be my own enemy!
Like the sky opens after a rainy day we must open to ourselves.... Learn to love yourself for who you are and open so the world can see you shine. ~James Poland
Love you lots

In the mid-20th century, 2014 seemed so impossibly far off. Surely by then cars would no longer be driving on roads but instead ascending to the skies. But the unfortunate reality is — apart from a few prototypes very much in development — we have no flying cars, no coupes with metal appendages coming out of the sides, and no smart cars fully operational without a driver.
But that doesn't mean we can't appreciate the super-sleek airborne robotic cars from films. Here are our favorite imaginary futuristic automobiles, and the stories behind their creation.
The Time Machine from Back to the Future
Is there a more iconic movie car, futuristic or otherwise, than the time machine from the Back to the Future franchise? The combination of the distinctly '80s-looking make and model with the time-traveling hijinks of Marty McFly and Doc Brown has stood the test of time, and it remains one of the most recognizable cars in pop culture history. Sure, a car with a 130-horsepower V6 engine is nothing to write home about, but when you add a flux capacitor to it, that's a whole different story.
But how did it all come together? Director Robert Zemeckis supported the DeLorean DMC-12 — its gull wing doors gave it an alien spaceship look that he thought was perfect for the film — but it still needed some serious modifications to pass for a time machine. Artist Andrew Probert was brought in to modify the look, but Zemeckis thought the resulting sketches looked too polished — Doc Brown built it in a garage, after all. So Ron Cobb, who had worked with Back to the Future producer Steven Spielberg on Raiders of the Lost Ark, had his way with the sketches, perfecting the now-iconic back of the car: the dual coils, the horizontal vent, and the mini nuclear reactor.
"Obviously no one knows how one travels through time exactly but I just wanted to create a lot of believable stuff," Cobb said in an interview. "I thought it should look a little bit homemade because Dr. Brown supposedly was doing it in his lab at home and so he would be using parts from RadioShack or something like that."
At the end of the film, the car gets a little upgrade, becoming a flying time machine in the sequels. As Doc Brown says: "Roads? Where we're going we don't need roads."
The Sleek Coupe in I, Robot
While it's a shame that car makers haven't yet reinvented the wheel — like, literally reinvented the wheel — in 2014, I, Robot (the 2004 film based on an Isaac Asimov story) predicts that they will have by 2035. The film's director, Alex Proyas, worked to develop a prototype for a new type of machine, in which wheels would be replaced by "spheres," allowing the vehicle to dart through futuristic Chicago with any part of the vehicle facing forward. The result was a sleek sports coupe with butterfly-action doors not unlike the gull wings on our beloved DeLorean. In the front seat the steering wheel folds up into the dashboard when not in use and out again when the driver sits down. Its owner wouldn't even have to agonize over what shade they wanted: this chameleon car changes color as it glides through the city.
The Spinner in Blade Runner
In the 1970s, Syd Mead was perhaps the world's preeminent designer of future worlds, contributing his vision of technology to corporations such as Ford and Philips Electronics. So when Ridley Scott needed someone to flesh out the striking look of 2019 Los Angeles, he turned to Mead. Of all the indelible images featured in the film, the most memorable may be The Spinner, the cylindrical flying police cruiser, battalions of which dart through the neon-washed skies to enforce the totalitarian state.
After Mead came up with his designs, he took them to Gene Winfield, the legendary car builder and chopper, who began the massive job of building the 25 cars needed for the film. This proved a nearly Herculean task for the car maker. "Basically every piece that has a shape to it that you see in there, we made," Winfield said in an interview. "We made the seats, the steering apparatus and everything." Upon re-watching Blade Runner, that attention to detail really shows. But if you ever got inside a Spinner to check it all out, you're probably in some serious trouble — unless you're a cop, of course.
Those are the stories behind three of cinema's most memorable futuristic cars. So what about your personal favorite?
Correction: This post originally stated that the coupe in I, Robot was a flying car. It is not.

Lana Clarkson
In the early morning hours of February 3, 2003, Lana Clarkson was murdered by Phil Spector in his Alhambra mansion. It took two trials for Spector to be convicted on April 13, 2009. Spector was sentenced on May 29, 2009 to 19 years to life for Lana's murder.
This was the case that launched Trials & Tribulations. It's where I met Dominick Dunne, former DDA Alan Jackson and Beth Karas, all of whom became long time friends.
To this day, when I see pictures of this beautiful, vibrant woman, I'm instantly back in front of her niche at the Hollywood Forever Cemetery, and the peaceful place where she is laid to rest. Saying a prayer today, for Lana and her family.

NOW...on to the cakes I made in the month of March...
Only two birthdays this month. This first one is for my friend, Laura, who turned 16 years old. Perhaps you remember THIS POST of the birthday card that I made for Laura. Laura plays the piano on occasion for the prelude at church so I knew that making a piano cake would be a winner.
I had extra cake batter left over so thought it would be fun to make some cupcakes and have a chance to decorate them using the Rosette Die and the Big Shot.
This second cake is for little Julia who turned four years old. I made a butterfly cake for her last year, and she wanted another one this year.
Thanks For Stopping By!
Have a Sweet Day!!

We're all for a good collaboration, which is exactly what you can expect from the third capsule collection within Kohls' DesigNation.
The latest designer to give us a lower-priced line through Kohl's: Catherine Malandrino, following in the footsteps of Narciso Rodriguez and Derek Lam before her.
So what can you expect from Malandrino's line for DesigNation, set to hit stores and kohls.com in the Fall? An 80-piece collection inspired by Paris that will feature skirts, dresses, pants, and a ton more—all at wallet-friendly prices. We're talking between $36 and $130.
And while the actual images of the collabo haven't been released yet (sorry!), we did score two sketches from the collection that give you an idea of what's to come. From what we can see, the pieces are going to be awesome—and they're going to go fast! We'll keep you posted as to the exact launch date, so check back in and then mark your iCal.
Okay, so what do you think? Will you be storming Kohl's this fall in hopes of getting your hands on one of Catherine Malandrino's pieces? We know we will!

Doesn't look like it could ever happen though, which is out of order... lucky I'm moving to Canada or USA when I'm older!!!

Shawn SheelyI've worked with Daniel for 7 years, first at OLSON for 2 years - then for 5 years as my Lead Developer at Analog. Dan is one of the most capable developers I've had the pleasure of working with. He is the master of many different programmer languages, but more importantly he is a great architect. Dan's approach to development always starts with planning and organization. IA and data modeling, prototyping - and ultimately smoothly running apps with great flow. I would call Dan a seasoned Vet, having spent his early years in the trenches of digital - he's grown to be a master of his domain who can lead the development of a project as well as those in his chain of command. He's reliable, innovative and hard-working. I hope I can work with him again in the near future._Director of Technology
Louise DengerudDan Zimney is a fantastic developer. He is collaborative, detailed, responsive and responsible. He knows how to work closely with internal and client teams to find innovative solutions to difficult projects. His dedication to making every project better than the last is apparent and always and appreciated. I would consider it an honor to work with Dan again in the future._Director of Client Services & Brand Strategy
Ross TeichnerDan is a complicated man whose brain is complicated machinary used for solving complicated problems. I had the unique pleasure to borrow his massive computing power to build beautiful functional and motion driven interfaces. Daniel is one of those few uniquely gifted talents that understands multi-dimensional logical problems with a finely detailed design integrity. I started working with him when he was fresh out of college and he quickly grew into a veteran programmer. One day we will all be working for him, or dead by his hand.
Jennifer MartinéDaniel is extremely professional and reliable. I can't thank him enough for all the wonderful work he has done for me and my website. I highly recommend him to anyone in need of a great web developer._Advertising and Editorial Photographer

Very yummy. The pasta to sauce ratio was a bit out for my liking. If I make it again I would probably use 300gm pasta or increase the meat amount

|This is the article on the manga chapter. For the character, head to Konohamaru Sarutobi.
"Konohamaru!!" (木ノ葉丸!!, Konohamaru!!) is chapter 2 of the original Naruto manga.
While preparing for his life as a ninja, Naruto Uzumaki meets the young Konohamaru in the middle of an attempt on the Third Hokage's life. When he fails, Konohamaru asks to train under Naruto, hoping that his Sexy Technique will be enough to defeat the Third and become Hokage. Planning to become Hokage himself, Naruto asks why he would want the title. Konohamaru explains that, as the Third's grandson, people only identify him as such and not by his name. He hopes that, by becoming Hokage, people will acknowledge him, not because he's the grandson of the latter.
Knowing what Konohamaru is going through, Naruto agrees to train him. Ebisu, Konohamaru's tutor, believes the "Nine-Tails boy" is a bad influence and attempts to stop their training. Konohamaru uses his perfected Sexy Technique to try and get rid of Ebisu, but it has no effect. Naruto follows up with his Harem Technique, which affected Ebisu and a proof he's also a pervert. Seeing that he still has much to learn, Konohamaru breaks off his student-teacher relationship with Naruto, as depending on Naruto's help to become Hokage would mean he is unfit for the position.

This Questions page is the place to post and answer general questions regarding the work here on OrthodoxWiki. We hope we can help! For general reference/research questions. please see OrthodoxWiki:Reference desk
Skin change
I don't know about y'all, but I liked the default skin without the boxes rounded off at the corners. Any chance that could be an option for the default skin? —[[User:ASDamick|—Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!)]] 12:57, 10 Sep 2005 (EDT)
- Sure, I could put it in as an option, just for you :-). Give me a little time on this though! Fr. John
Spoken Word
I just ran across Wikipedia's Spoken Word Project. Might there be podcasting in our future??? What do you think? Fr. John
What to do?
Someone (Fr John?) contacted me at Wikipedia and asked me to help out here, but I'm not sure where to start. I've worked on Wikipedia for several years off and one, and it's easy to find things there that need help, but the quality of work I'm seeing here looks much higher, at least at a glance. Is there a ToDo list somewhere, or anything of that sort? Theophan 22:20, 26 Feb 2005 (CST)
- Hi Theophan, I'm sorry for the delay in finding this message, but I'm glad to see that others took up the ball on this one. Fr. John
Is there a reason that all the timestamps show as CST, even though preferences are set to another time zone? - magda 10:14, 18 Mar 2005 (CST)
- Hmm... Server time is set to CST, as well as the wiki default (since I'm in Chicago). Maybe to keep all the timestamps in order, they go for the default instead of you local preferences??? Fr. John 14:29, 18 Mar 2005 (CST)
I was reading an article about the recent synod in Turkey, and came across the word diptych. I asked my husband about it and he said this usage refers to the commemoration of the Patriarchs, who usually co-commemorate each other (as each local church commemorates the bishop, metropolitan, patriarch, etc.). Any idea why this is called a diptych? --magda 11:53, 25 May 2005 (CDT)
- Hi magda, the Wikipedia article says "A diptych is any object with two flat plates attached at a hinge. These objects were quite popular in the ancient world, since they could record notes and measure time and direction." I assume this was just the commonest medium upon which the names of those commemorated were written.
- As a side note, this page seems to be for OrthodoxWiki related questions. Maybe we should move it to a general Orthodoxy q and A page, kind of like Google Answers? Any more ideas on how to best structure this? Fr. John
Troparia and other prayers for Saints' entries?
Given that this Wiki is unabashedly Orthodox, would it be acceptable to try to have appropriate liturgical prayers in each Saint's entry?
- Oops, that was from me Dogface 23:02, December 4, 2005 (CST)
- Certainly! We wouldn't want to put the whole akolouthia in, though, just perhaps the troparion and kontakion, along with a brief excerpt from some other major text from the feast. —Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!) 06:30, December 5, 2005 (CST)
Calendar of Saints
I made a couple of entries on Saints, however I don't know how to put links to the articles in the calendar. How should I do this? - Silentchapel
- OrthodoxWiki:Style Manual (Church Calendar) says to just edit the template for the date. So for February 18 edit Template:February 18. Hope this helps. - Andrew 15:26, April 26, 2006 (CDT)
"You have new messages" flag
The new messages flag keeps displaying even after I've read the new message on my talk page. It keeps displaying even after I've logged out and logged back in. And it keeps displaying even when I log in later on on my other computer. Normally, the message flag should go off once the new message has been retrieved for the first time. That's certainly how it happens on other sites that use the same wikisoftware, e.g., Wikipedia. --Aquarius Rising 17:49, April 26, 2006 (CDT)
- Not sure what's happening here. I haven't seen problems like this before. Have you clicked the "View new messages" link directly yet? Have you tried to refresh your browser? Not sure what else to say! Fr. John 22:38, April 26, 2006 (CDT)
- I have logged in after several days absence, and there is still a new messages flag regarding those earlier, already read messages. And I did click the view new messages link directly. It's weird. I have never experienced this glitch on Wikipedia, Uncyclopedia or any other wiki site that uses the same software. --Aquarius Rising 08:46, May 4, 2006 (CDT)
Deleting Articles?
Um, is there any way I can delete an article? I missnamed a couple, so their deletation would be appreciated. Silentchapel
- Thanks Father! Well, the articles that should be deleted are Prophet Habbakuk (real article is Habbakuk) and Cosmas of Jerusalem (real article is Cosmas the Hymnographer). Sorry for causing all the trouble, it is just so fun to improve wiki. :->
- Done. —Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!) 20:42, April 27, 2006 (CDT)
Hmm, I've been having repeated problems with making pictures I've uploaded into stubs in my articles. Please see Edict of Milan, and then tell me what the heck I'm doing wrong! Thanks so much. Gabriela 11 May, 2006, 12:46 (CST)
- Try "thumb" instead. :) Again, good work on the article! (Don't worry. The wiki syntax takes a little while to get used to.) —magda (talk) 12:51, May 11, 2006 (CDT)
- Hmm, that deserves a "duh" response. Don't I feel like a complete idiot! Ah, well, it's good for my sense of humility. Thanks again. I see you also did some minor but quite useful editing. I'm learning. Gabriela 15:02, May 11, 2006 (CST)
Calendar links
Sorry if someone already asked this, but I wouldn't it be more logical for calendar entries only to contain links for actual Saint entries, as opposed to Saints and a large number of links that tend to lead to Saint titles article? For example, if someone wanted to read on St. Theodore the Sanctified, the entry looks like this: Saint Theodore the Sanctified, the disciple of Venerable Pachomius the Great. Depending on where the person clicks (on name or title) it will lead to two different articles, and somoene who isn't proficient at using OrthodoxWiki probably wouldn't know that seemingly one link leads to two different articles. Silentchapel
- Well, when we were starting to put the calendar pages together, we had more pages for the title kinds of things than for the hagiographical articles. Also, many of the titles themselves may provoke curiosity, for instance "venerable": I found out why some saints are called that when I was working on the calendar. Because the calendar templates are viewed on the main page, it seemed that they should be accessible to the broadest number of people, including those who do not know what a saint is. I tried to make sure that the titles were only linked once per day. Perhaps there should be another way of emphasizing the names of the saints of the day? —magda (talk) 07:36, May 18, 2006 (CDT)
Hmm, I'm trying to use an icon from skete.com, but they have the site locked so that you can't right click on the images and pull up a menu to save it to the hard drive. Basically, I can't put it on my computer, so I can't upload it and post it here. What am I missing about how everyone else managed to upload the skete images? Gabriela 10:38, 23 May, 2006 (CDT)
- Ok, update. I managed to circumvent the skete site (though I'm still giving them credit in the image license) by searching on google and finding the same icon on religiousmall.com, which wasn't locked so you couldn't put it on your hard drive. Still, I'm sure there's an easier way. Gabriela 10:52, 23 May, 2006 (CDT)
- I look at the page's source (ctrl-U on Firefox; not sure about your browser) and search for "jpg". It's usually the 2nd hit or so, often with an "alt" tag with the saint's name. I then use the text from the "src" field, add it to the end of http://www.skete.com/ and, hey, presto! you have the image's URL. You can then right-click and save to your heart's content. —Fr. Andrew talk contribs (THINK!) 17:58, May 23, 2006 (CDT)
IRC Channel
Just wondering if any of ya'll have given thought on creating an IRC channel for Orthodoxwiki. I was considering it, but I thought it best to ask my fellow Orthodoxwikians before taking on the endeavor myself. Does anyone have suggestions? Server locations? Does this sound like a good idea? Mike 17:40, 2 June, 2006 (CDT)
Sorry, but I'm still bad with this copyright bureaucracy stuff. From what I understand (correct me if I'm wrong), if I'm using an icon from htm or skete, then all I need to do is add the skete.com/htm tag, not the limited one.

Juliette "Daisy" Gordon Low assembled 18 girls from Savannah, Georgia, on March 12, 1912, for a local Girl Scout meeting. She believed that all girls should be given the opportunity to develop physically, mentally, and spiritually. With the goal of bringing girls out of isolated home environments and into community service and the open air, Girl Scouts hiked, played basketball, went on camping trips, learned how to tell time by the stars, and studied first aid.
Within a few years, Daisy's dream for a girl-centered organization was realized. Today, Girl Scouts of the USA has a membership of over 3.2 million girls and adults, a significant growth from its modest beginnings a century ago. In fact, more than 59 million women in the U.S. today are Girl Scout alumnae. We invite you to learn about our robust organization and its rich history. From our willingness to tackle important societal issues, to our commitment to diversity and inclusiveness—Girl Scouts is dedicated to every girl, everywhere.

I missed the opening episodes, but I've rectified that with a Season Pass to Jamie Oliver's new show, Jamie Oliver's Food Revolution.
I think now is an interesting time in our history where we are open to hearing the message about how our ways have become unsustainable. it's not just about green; it's not just about the planet; it's not just about animals; it's not just about personal health; it's not just about the children; it's not just about underlying classism.
It's about all of these things together...it's about the entire Earth as a system that is being, systematically, destroyed...and we humans are regrettably driving that.
We all must eat, and how we eat is fundamental to a lot of our problems today..environmental problems, health problems, ethical problems.
There are some folks who seem to be able to get the message across. Folks like Jonathan Safran Foer, Robert Kenner and Eric Schlosser (the guys behind Food Inc), Alicia Silverstone, even Michelle Obama.
After watching his TedTalk, I think Jamie Oliver is another such voice.
I remember back at BlogHer '06. Shuna Fish Lydon stood up and talked about how food was a class issue...that everyone needs to eat, but how government policy basically ensures that only higher-income people get to eat well. Four years on, this is still basically the case.
I'm hoping that with these new voices being raised, we may finally get it, and we may finally take concrete action.
Yes, personal action is awesome. But we need to act as a community, and as a government.
Maybe I'm putting to big a burden on little Jamie Oliver and his show. But I'm going to atch, and I'm going to hope.
Are you? (Watching? Hoping? Changing?)

Why should humans be the only ones to test their DNA in order to discover their family trees? Shouldn't ALL family members be tested? After all, your dog is practically a family member also, right?
Seriously, several companies are now offering DNA test kits for dogs. With a simple cheek swab, you reportedly can identify your pet's canine ancestry, including from wolf, coyote, or village dog ancestry.
Here is a quote from Embark, one of the companies selling a $129 US canine DNA test kit on Amazon:
"FAMILY TREE AND ANCESTRY: The Embark Dog DNA Test will tell you your dog's family tree all the way back to great grandparents. Embark also shows other dogs of similar breed mix to your pup. You can explore their profiles and photos and see how much they resemble your dog.
"DISCOVER YOUR DOG'S RELATIVES: Find and connect with other dogs that share DNA with yours, including distant and close relatives. Only Embark will give you a percentage of shared DNA between your dog and others that have been tested with Embark. Doggy DNA Relative Finder included with purchase.
"HEALTHY AGING: Embark tests for over 165 diseases. With our comprehensive genetic testing, you can better plan for healthy aging, with information on everything from genetic diseases to drug sensitivities. Keep your dog healthy longer by testing for genetic diseases that occur later in life including glaucoma, degenerative myelopathy, and dilated cardiomyopathy, three of the most common adult-onset diseases in dogs."
I don't have a dog so I cannot easily test this myself. I guess I could "borrow" a dog but I don't have easy access to one. If you do test your pet's DNA, please post a comment below to describe the results and your satisfaction (or lack of satisfaction) with the testing process. Do you believe the test was accurate?
