Now that you can do the basic crochet stitches, here a few thing you need to know for making your crocheted item, including how to correct errors.
Slip stitch (sl st)- A slip stitch is used to join two ends of crochet, to join round crochets in a circular pattern, or switch to another stitch. With the loop on your hook, insert your hook through the desired stitch, yarn over, and pull the loop through both the stitch and the loop on your hook. Here's a great video on how to do the slip stitch:
Adding Another Row- To add another row, chain a stitch at the end of your row of crochet. Flip the piece over, skip the chain you made and put your hook through the first stitch. Be sure to put your hook through the whole stitch and not just the top loop. Yarn over and you are ready to continue with crocheting another row.
Adding/Decreasing Stitches- Adding/decreasing stitches is important in shaping garments such as hats or sweaters.
Add (abbreviated inc for increase)- To add a stitch, create a second stitch in the same stitch before moving on to the next chain link. This is one single crochet increase.
Drop (dec for decrease)- Basically, you are working one stitch over two or three stitches to decrease. To drop or decrease a stitch, insert the hook into stitch, YO, and pull the yarn through, just like a single crochet. Move to the next stitch, insert your hook, YO, and pull the loop through. Then YO again and pull your yarn through all three loops to drop the stitch. This is one single crochet decrease. To decrease in double crochet, YO and insert hook into the next stitch, YO and pull up loop. Yarn over and draw yarn through the first 2 loops on your hook, leaving two remaining on hook. YO and insert the hook into the next stitch, YO and pull up loop. YO and draw yarn through next 2 loops on hook, with 3 loops remaining. Yarn over and draw through all three loops on hook. This is one double crochet decrease.

I am trying to teach my adult daughter how to crochet and was copying the steps for her (I confess some of the abbrev I had forgotten) and I clicked on the link to "Beginning Crochet: Part Five- How to Finish" and I could not find it. I know how to finish my way but I wanted to show her the proper way. She saw me crocheting a sweater for our taco bell dog and she said show me, well I was doing a blanket stitch for approx 6 rows then switched to a double and going in the round the blanket stitch was to allow room for his pee pee area before going in the round for the rest of the outfit. As the result she was totally confused.

Brick and Mortar Stores: fourTwelve Main

I think I truly mourned when G.F. McGregor's in Rockland Maine closed. You know how you find that very small handful of shops in your life that truly inspire you? They are curated and merchandised to perfection, and you just want to move in? That was how I felt about G.F. McGregor's, but yesterday, I found a shop to fill the void.
My aunt bought some gorgeous Thomas Paul pillows for our family place in Maine (much to my chagrin, as I could have ordered them at DP), but when I asked her where she'd found them, she sent me to fourTwelve Home in Rockland. Formerly just the clothing and accessories boutique, the shop acquired the space next door and opened up a home store.
Home Goodies to the left, Clothing to the right…hey, there's my Mom!
This shop combines just the right combination of historical preservation and regency glamor. The original wooden floors are painted light gray with a tiny hint of green/blue in it. The original exposed brick walls are painted white. The ceilings are covered in white tin tiles, and the exposed pipes are painted white. That's where the the old patina shows through; everything else is shiny and fresh. It is a perfect balance. There are fabulous light fixtures hanging in a line down both halves of the store, there is oversized floral wallpaper in the dressing rooms along with benches, there are gorgeous mirrors and mirrored furniture, there is a large velvet ottoman in the boutique (it looks like it came straight from Nanette Lepore's closet), and there are little peacocks peeking out at you here and there from the tops of shelves.
Included in the home items were John Derian decoupage, Jonathan Adler vases, Thomas Paul pillows, Bob's My Uncle sea life plates, emu furniture, funny books, gorgeous soaps and bath items, those cool Caspari long match matchbooks, and a fun array of letterpress cards. It's a perfect stop for accessorizing one's own home or for picking up a great gift for just about anyone for any occassion at any price point.
By the way, among all the great articles of clothing they had in there, I kept pulling out the cutest pieces and they were all by Beth Bowley, whom I hadn't heard of before. It turns out she is the owner, a Parsons grad, and she launched her clothing line in 1998.
Overall, the decor reminded me of the jewelry available in the store. The newer lines are very delicate, and handcrafted from silver and gold. In addition, they have a wide array of vintage pieces that are unique with some hints of funk and a few well-earned signs of age. It's a new inspiration I know I'll keep in the back of my mind whenever I am decorating.

10 years later and Astaldi continues to evolve their finance transformation journey with CCH Tagetik!
Listen to how CCH Tagetik delivers real-time data across Astaldi's 150 entities with over 50 currencies and 10 consolidation scenarios!
Due to the very fast grow of the company, we needed a software based on projects, while the previous one was only focused on legal entity logic.
With CCH Tagetik we have had the opportunity to underline and stress our financial performances, divided by each project.
The most difficult aspect to manage was the location worldwide of our plants - they are located in Europe and South America, North America and Asia - so we needed a web-based solution that allowed us to collect data 24 hours a day, 7 days a week considering that we work on very different time zones.
Thanks to the web-based CCH Tagetik platform we lowered our TCO from 20% to 30%, and we can benefit from real-time data across our entities.
We use CCH Tagetik for statutory consolidation: we have 150 different entities with over 50 different currencies, so we have a lot of data to convert to euros, about 10 different consolidation scenarios, and 300 different contributors located worldwide.
We also use CCH Tagetik for budgeting and forecasting based on a project approach: every project manages its own budget on a monthly basis with revenue and costs shared across different currencies.
Then, we have the budget and financial planning to calculate all the different currencies, we also use CCH Tagetik for Enterprise Risk Management, which is a new process, and finally the Collaborative Disclosure Management, which allows us to produce the notes to the balance sheets for many different scenarios and to refresh and update data in a very fast way.
Astaldi was in a software selection with Cognos, IBM, Hyperion… and the difference we perceived from CCH Tagetik consultants was in their approach in respect of our needs.
After 10 years Astaldi has no regrets and this is demonstrated by the fact that we are enlarging our experience with CCH Tagetik to other CPM processes … the last one to be implemented will probably be the Integrated Reporting, I'm personally working on this and I'm absolutely sure of the success of this project.
CCH Tagetik is used daily by our CFO, who has visibility on all of Astaldi's financial accounts worldwide, thanks to specific reports addressed to the CFO, so he can monitor the bank account situation in real time everyday.
Yes, I absolutely recommend CCH Tagetik to someone else.

DETROIT – A short documentary called "Image of the Invisible" features Brian Woehlke on the job as he worked as a paramedic for Redford Township.
WATCH: Documentary featuring fallen Westland firefighter Brian Woehlke
29-year-old Woehlke died Wednesday while battling a fire at a strip mall in Westland. He was crushed when the roof of the building collapsed.
The documentary by independent filmmaker Aaron Trager and Mike J. Moore is described as: "A short documentary about the jobs and lives of paramedics in Chicago and Detroit. Following two paramedics on the job in suburban Detroit we delve in to the question as to whether paramedics are under appreciated and have become a medical taxi service for the general public.". The short film was made just over a year ago.
In it Woehlke can be heard talking about his job and seen tending to people in need -- including a woman who appears to have suffered a heart attack.
Trager told ClickOnDetroit.com he spent one day with Brian and his partner Katie for one day during filming - but saw his face over and over again he and Moore edited the footage they had collected. He said Woehlke has been called by many a "favorite character" in the documentary because he was so light hearted and fun.
Prior to Woehlke's death, never in 47 years had the Wayne-Westland Fire Department lost a firefighter on the job.
Woehlke leaves behind his wife of four years and a 13-month-old daughter. He was hired by the department in July 2012.
Saying goodbye
Streets were lined with supporters who waved flags and gave salutes Monday morning as the casket carrying fallen Westland firefighter Brian Woehlke made its way to the church.
Hundreds of firefighters from across the state, and Canada, stood in solidarity outside the church. Those who didn't know Woehlke personally say they knew him in spirit.
The sentiment:
"So it's import for us to come out and recognize his sacrifice," said Detroit firefighter Reginald Johnson.
"Well even though we all come from different departments, we all have a common enemy and that's fire," said Detroit Deputy Fie Commissioner Edsel Jenkins.
"We don't recognize boarders as such, their our brothers in the task that they do and we feel the loss everywhere, we're all firefighters," said Toronto Firefighter George Krallk.
"This is what we do. This is what all firefighters do. When one goes down, we all feel the pain. So, it's important for us to come out and recognize his sacrifice," one visiting firefighter told Local 4.
Gov. Rick Snyder has ordered U.S. flags lowered at state buildings around Michigan to honor Woehlke.
Snyder said in a statement that Woehlke "is an example of the brave men and women" who protect Michigan communities every day.
Statement from Woehlke family:
"We would like to thank the community for their outpouring of support through this difficult time. The community's generosity in the form of memorial donations, flowers, food, prayers and support are greatly appreciated, more than words can express. He would be humbled by the heart-felt expressions of thoughtfulness and support from his fellow brothers and sisters in the fire service, extended family and the community at-large. Brian fulfilled his lifelong dream of becoming a firefighter when he joined the Wayne Westland Fire Department."

Once a year, I usually go back to Germany to visit Mama, bond with old friends, and make sure that nothing crazy happened while I was gone. I also try to work on some personal or stock projects when I'm there, since I like working outside of New York in general, for the obvious reasons like cheaper, easier, nicer, and with parking. So, when a friend told me about a kid near my hometown, who was supposed to be a crack BMX'er, I thought this could make for a nice little Getty shoot.
The rider's name was Johannes Burg (which would've been funny in South Africa) and he was just a hint over 18. We talked about the shoot and he was totally into it, so we decided to meet at his local BMX track, a dirt loop with plenty of built-in jumps that was pretty much abandoned when we got there. Ideal circumstances. We started off with an easy shot to warm up.
Johannes had to go full speed into a bank, pop the front wheel a bit and then avoid the lights and the camera. We had this shot after a few tries and moved on to the next and more difficult scenario.
For the next shot he had to fly off a jump and I had to catch him in mid air. We picked the jump with the nice tree details in the background and set up lights from the 4 corners. We had one Profoto 7B with 2 heads and regular reflectors on one side and and a borrowed Hensel Porty with 2 heads and regular reflectors on the other side. We did a few trial runs to see where I could set up the camera and to get the timing down since I couldn't see him (and he couldn't see me) until he was in the air. We nailed it pretty much straight away. This was the second frame we shot:
And we should have moved on, but we didn't. Why, you ask? Because we were stupid, that's why.
Johannes and I looked at the good frame and we felt that if we can get that on the second jump, we can get something even better if we keep trying. During the next few jumps I kept inching in with the camera for something a bit more straight on and Johannes kept trying to get more height out of the jump. Finally between my moving the camera closer to the landing spot and Johannes changing the line of his approach we created this situation:
Johannes came over the hill and he was pointing fairly straight at me. I let out a mighty gulp, clicked the shutter way too early and tried to hustle out of the way with a tethered Mamiya RZ and a tripod. Johannes tried to change his trajectory in mid flight, which is never a good idea, though I'm still grateful he did. He was way too high anyway and came down hard in the flat part after the jump right next to me. He fell and slammed into the next bump, breaking his hand and his bike in the process.
There was a pretty depressed drive to the hospital, that didn't get any better when he realized that he would miss two major championships he was training for. Johannes got his x-rays and his cast without any trouble thanks to the German healthcare system and the most positive take on the situation was, that it could have been worse.
I had a miserable, sleepless night after this disaster and felt out of sorts for a few more days. Mostly because looking back I couldn't believe we kept repeating a dangerous stunt for no good reason and getting sloppier and sloppier as the shoot went on. I felt like an amateur and a moron.
I saw Johannes again a few days later and he was back in good spirits ( I guess, if you're a serious BMX'er, you can't dwell on spills and injuries ) and that in turn made me feel better. He was not pressing charges against me (yeah) and I reimbursed him for his smashed up bike parts. The lessons of that shoot are still with me of course: Don't push your or other people's luck, stop when you have the shot, be in control, don't egg each other on, work precisely and carry insurance.
The most interesting part of that last shot, is an extreme crop, because this is the face of someone, who knows he's in trouble.
There is also a curious little aside to the story: I promised Johannes to get him some bike parts from the famous S&M Bikes in California. All the parts he wanted had names like Beringer Fork, Beringer Stem, Beringer Bar, etc. , I didn't think anything of it until I met Matt Beringer himself last year on another BMX shoot. And there you have it, it is a small world.

Lakes in Mongolia's Great Lakes Depression50.2N 92.6E
As its name would suggest, Mongolia's Great Lakes Depression contains several large bodies of water. Visible near the top edge is Lake Uvs Nuur, which appears bright white here as its surface is frozen.
In the center of the image, south of Lake Uvs, are Lake Khyargas (above) and Lake Airag (below). The former is significantly larger than the latter. It is dark blue in color, although the eastern half is slightly greener. The smaller Lake Airag is bright green.
Continuing south, several other lakes can be observed near the bottom of the image: Lake Khar, Lake Dörgön and Lake Khar-Us (right to left). These lakes show varying shades of blue, green and brown.

I've followed the Columbia #Omniten from the beginning.
I remember reading blog posts from original #Omniten about their trip together, how it changed them…brought them all closer together. It was the kind of trip that inspired life long friendships. The unique experience of that trip changed the careers, lives and relationships of those who were there.
I wondered if our group would develop that bond. I wondered if I would be changed by the experience. I wondered if the first #Omniten was unique.
I'm not the type of person who makes friends easily. As an introvert, I will tell jokes and make superficial conversation to avoid making true connections with people. Usually. The outdoor community is different, the people are different. Meeting people from the outdoor community face to face for the first time is a lot like visiting old friends you haven't seen in a while. Easy, comfortable, comforting, exciting, fun and mixed with a lot of laughter. Meeting my #Omniten family for the first time was like this.
I will write more in the next couple of weeks about the trip and share some photos. This was "the adventure of a lifetime", as Eric put it. For me personally it was a homecoming, it was emotional. I've always dreamed of being able to take a group of good friends on a whitewater trip and show them why I love the river so much. Even if I wasn't the one guiding the trip, this really felt like the trip I've dreamed of. I give credit to Columbia for putting together a stellar group of people and not just the #Omniten. The people from Columbia that joined our adventure were all truly great people and added tremendously to the enjoyment of the trip.
I haven't floated the swirling currents of the river in over 5 years. It felt good to drift along in the fickle current, to ride the eddie lines, to slide down the broad green tongue at the top of a rapid and bounce along the frothing, white-capped wave train. I'd almost forgotten how much I love the sounds of the river – the trickling of waterfalls, the roaring of whitewater, the creak of the oarlocks and soft dip of the oar blades into the quiet, flat water.
I miss the river already, but I just might miss my new friends a little bit more. I now know first-hand how the other group felt when they had to say goodbye at the end of their trip. It's bitter-sweet and filled with adventurous opportunity.
I hope to see you all again soon!

Thank you: 10 reasons to thank the foodie gods
MAS - This tapas bar started 2003 off with a bite-size bang when it opened in January- and in downtown Belmont, no less. Formerly the home of Hog Heaven (now flourishing in Ruckersville), this historic brick building at the fork of Hinton Avenue and Monticello Road helped inaugurate the new industrial-chic look now running rampant in Charlottesville– exposed everything, concrete bar, custom lighting, and upholstery. Hot since day one– thanks to the unique locale and the talent of Tomas Rahal and original breadmaker/sous chef Anthony Johnston– Mas has matured under the ownership of Coran Capshaw into one of Charlottesville's most lively and reliable gourmet gems.
909 WEST MAIN STREET Asian Express and Big Mouth Pizza. We can thank Gabe Silverman for the meticulous restoration of this historic brick house on the once-starved block between Starr Hill and the Corner, now home to two innovative locally owned restaurants. Combining a sleek, clean, contemporary look with Chinese and Japanese cuisine is Asian Express, which debuted in March- much to the applause of both hospital workers and students. It took a little longer to fill Suite 102, but when Big Mouth Pizza finally opened on December 12 with its custom pies and sauces and vibrant decor, it was a perfect match. Living less than a mile from 909 W. Main, I'm thankful that when hunger strikes I now have a choice: seaweed salad and spicy tuna roll or a garlic-infused white pizza with shitake mushrooms and caramelized onions. And if I'm in a lazy mood, they'll bring dinner to my door.
MILAN - Call it good karma. When a trio of north India-natives in Lynchburg decided to open their second Milan restaurant in the humble gray building on Route 29 a spot where former tenants Crystal's and Indochine had had a hard time– many were skeptical. Especially considering the constant traffic in that particular "block," and the proximity of the popular Maharaja. But the packed parking lot at lunchtime proves that excellent Indian cuisine and fine service can transform even a problematic location into a success story. Need more evidence? Talk to the dozens of Hindi-Urdu students at UVA who flock there on a regular basis.
THE GROUNDS CAFÉ This was a big year for cafés. Balancing out closures like Blackstone's and Espresso Royale were newcomers Java Java and Mermaid Express (the latter newly located to Foods of all Nations). Given their location on Ivy Road, anyone could've predicted the success of these two new coffee- and-tea houses. But the real surprise is The Grounds Café, another small, locally owned café at Seminole Square. When they opened in July in the Caldo and Freddo spot, I wondered whether the Grounds' homemade focaccia sandwiches, baked goods, and Seattle-educatated coffees would find a market between Cici's Pizza's $3.99 buffet and Giant. But the last time I dropped by for lunch– for an enormous (half!) focaccia sandwich ($3) and a very Italian tasting macchiato coffee ($1), the tables were filled with giggling seniors, hungry shoppers, and studious students.
SLOW FOOD VIRGINIA - This grass roots movement, founded in Italy in the 1980s, crept into Charlottesville-Albemarle this fall, debuting in September with a tasting of Virginia wines and cuisine, and followed up with a well-attended artisanal cheese tasting at Barboursville Vineyards in October. Dedicated to preserving local flavors and farmers over everything fast and franchised, Slow Food reflects and supports the agricultural traditions and gourmet aspirations of our town, and will surely continue to spread its gospel of gastronomic pleasures in years to come.
FUEL, CO. - Gourmet gas stations are not new to Charlottesville. But Fuel Co., which opened on Market Street in the fall, is much more than that. Patricia Kluge's prototype for what could become a national franchise redefines the genre and takes it up a notch- or 20. Not just a hybrid convenience store (bottle of Coke or bottle of wine?), gas station, and café (French pastries, panini, cappuccini), Fuel, Co. also sports a stellar gourmet nouvelle americaine restaurant that offers more than a few good reasons to fill 'er up.
SOSO - Sammy's Snacks and The Baker's Palate. Bravely occupying the newly refurbished Gleason's Building in Charlottesville's new warehouse district SoSo (south of South Street) are two bakeries- one for dogs, the other for humans. Sammy's Snacks, which specializes in homemade doggie and kittie treats (many that humans can enjoy too), filled the first spot in July. The Baker's Palate gave downtown bread, pastry, and panini lovers a reason to cross the tracks in September. Since both companies began at the City Market, they prove that sometimes the best things start small.
Q'DOBA - Okay, it's a franchise, and it does feature a few TVs, but this quick-casual Tex-Mex grill is a welcome addition to the Corner dining scene. When Espresso Royale Caffè closed in March, the owners of a Q'doba in Harrisonburg were quick and confident enough to fill the empty cup with their proven restaurant recipe. With its yellow facade, bright airy interior, quick assembly-line service, and affordable prices, Q'doba makes it clear that UVA students prefer beer, taco salads, and three-cheese nachos to morning roasts. I admit I'm already addicted to the Pesto Poblano Burrito, which for around $5 is big enough to feed an entire family or maybe one hungry football fan.
ZOCALO A 2003 latecomer (opened December 12), Zocalo was worth the wait. If Mas started the year with a bang, this Latin-inspired bar and restaurant is closing it on an equally upbeat urban note. You won't recognize former tenant Moondance (closed June 14) in the vast, warehouse-like space that's been innovatively designed (polished concrete bar, Mexican ceramic bathroom sinks) and features a menu with flavors as seductive as the tango. Zocalo has revitalized a tired Central Place and given new life to the heart of the Downtown Mall.
METRO - The makeover of Métropolitain was revealed at the end of 2002, but what many may not realize is that it was reborn not only as Metro, but as an Italian restaurant, competing with newcomers La Cucina and Al Dente. Owners Vincent Derquenne and Tim Burgess deserve credit for having the creativity and savoir faire to transform a decade-old grand-dame into a less formal, slightly more affordable eatery. They even make their own tagliatelle and fresh mozzarella. Like the others on this list, Metro seems to have a feel for what Charlottesville craves now- and is more than prepared to deliver.

The unemployment rate fell slightly in July to 7.4%, as the U.S. economy added 162,000 jobs. The number was short of the 184,000 jobs economists had predicted and far below the 202,000 average monthly gain for the first half of 2013.
The Labor Department also reduced its previous employment figures for May and June.
However, while the United States and much of the developed world continue to struggle with stagnant GDP and job growth, The Economist reported last week a similar picture is beginning to show up in emerging economies.
"This year will be the first in which emerging markets account for more than half of world GDP on the basis of purchasing power, according to the International Monetary Fund," the periodical optimistically begins. "In 1990, they accounted for less than a third of a much smaller total."
From 2003 to 2011, it notes, the share of world output provided by the emerging economies grew at more than a percentage point a year. The remarkably rapid growth the world has seen in these two decades marks the biggest economic transformation in modern history, and violating Sir John Templeton's famous axiom, the magazine claims it will likely "never be seen again."
Citing a recent study by Arvind Subramanian and Martin Kessler of the Washington-based think tank Peterson Institute, it adds that from 1960 to the late 1990s just 30% of countries in the developing world for which figures are available managed to increase their output per person faster than America did, thus achieving what is called "catch-up growth."
"That catching up was somewhat lackadaisical: the gap closed at just 1.5% a year. From the late 1990s, however, the tables were turned. The researchers found 73% of developing countries managing to outpace America, and doing so on average by 3.3% a year. Some of this was due to slower growth in America; most was not."
Now, however, while the shift to emerging markets will continue, its most "tumultuous phase seems to have more or less reached its end," the magazine argues. "Growth rates in all the BRICs have dropped. The nature of their growth is in the process of changing, too, and its new mode will have fewer direct effects on the rest of the world. The likelihood of growth in other emerging economies having an effect in the near future comparable to that of the BRICs in the recent past is low; they do not have the potential for catch-up the BRICs had in the 1990s and 2000s."
And, it adds, the BRICs' growth has changed "the rest of the world economy in ways that will dampen the disruptive effects of any similar surge in the future. The emerging giants will grow larger, and their ranks will swell; but their tread will no longer shake the Earth as once it did."
While developing economies still create "hundreds of millions of new workers in coming years," the numbers will be tempered by aging demographics in many countries, specifically China.
"India, with more favorable demographics, is struggling to create enough employment; it added no net new jobs in 2004-2005 and 2009-2010," it concludes, citing a recent survey. "Big demographic booms are brewing elsewhere: Nigeria, for example, may be more populous than America in less than 40 years. But such growth will have its peak impact only decades from now."

Revolutionary Greetings, to all my family, friends, and supporters.
The last few months have been a very busy time for me. I am very happy to report that some progress has been made in several areas. The best news to date is the progress with my parole situation. Since my last update letter, my lawyer filed a request for a parole hearing for me. I had the hearing on November 30, 2011. I met with two commissioners and they decided to advance my case to the next level of the parole process for persons with life sentences. That level requires a psychological evaluation, which means that sometime in the near future I will be transferred to another institution for a three month evaluation. This whole process is called a Risk Assessment, and once this level is completed the case goes before the full body of the parole commission. There are ten commissioners and a majority vote is required before the case can be sent to the governor who has the final right to approve or deny.
Thanks to all of you who wrote support letters or sent cards. One of the key reasons for moving my case forward was the enormous amount of community support reflected by those letters and cards. You all really helped, thank you once again. For those who did not know that this process was underway, it happened fast, but there is still time for you to write. The case will go before the full commission and the members will once again read the letters of support. So please continue to send letters requesting parole to:
Mr. David Bloomberg
6776 Reisterstown Rd.
Baltimore, MD. 21215
My lawyer, Phillip Dantes and his legal team has committed to filing my case in court by the end of this year 2011. As of this writing, that schedule is still being honored. We are looking forward to being in court sometime in 2012. Once we have a date, I will make you all aware via facebook and an update letter. We will be organizing a fundraiser in the spring to help with legal and court costs.
Since my last letter I have had the opportunity to speak at a number of events. I spoke with students and activist at University of Michigan-Ann Arbor, University of California at Riverside, and Students Against Mass Incarceration at Howard University. I also spoke at several community events and book readings of Marshall Law The Life and Times of a Baltimore Panther: the Urban Network in Detroit, MI., Internationalist Books in Chapel Hill, N.C., and readings in Chicago, Ill., and in Baltimore, MD. Some of these events also included large groups form Occupy Riverside, CA. and Occupy Chicago, plus students from University of North Carolina. In October I participated in a conference of community leaders and activists like Leaders of a Beautiful Struggle organized by Dylan Rodriguez with the American Studies Association; their annual meeting was held in Baltimore. I also had the opportunity to meet and speak with National Black United Front members who visited me and offered some encouragement for the survival of our community.
The work we are doing with the Friend of a Friend (FOF) mentoring organization is going very well. The organization has developed so many positive community leaders and mentors that I can no longer keep up with all the new people around the system and out in the community; that is a good thing and I am happy with both the group's growth and direction. The (FOF) prison project is expanding into another prison- with one more wanting the program; it is currently in five Maryland prisons.
I will never be able to thank the American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) for taking on this task and helping us save hundreds of lives and put many positive activists back into the community. We are now organizing our families outside with the support of a local church, Pleasant Hope Baptist Church and Pastor Heber Brown. Members of a Friend of a Friend are working with a local school to help provide guidance to youth; they are starting a Freedom School in 2012, and are also speaking at colleges in the region.
Our Neutral Grounds project has opened up a snack and beverage stand to demonstrate our concept of "Do for Self". Since unemployment is highest among people of African descent and even higher among former prisoners we have to think of ways to employ ourselves, and create our own economic opportunity. My family is okay in general. However, I recently lost a brother-in-law; he was married to my sister for thirty-nine years. Many of the family are planning a large holiday dinner and I plan to call in to the gathering. I am still struggling with high blood pressure, but I am exercising and trying to eat right, but prison food only allows so much right eating.
One thing I wish I could do better is write everyone as soon as the mail comes in, it's just not possible, but I greatly appreciate every letter – thank you all. I am looking forward to the coming year, and hope to see positive changes in the world. 2012 is an important year for our community and as the economic picture continues to change and capitalism collapses, food and basic needs will be in greater demand for the most vulnerable people in our communities. We need to learn and teach everyone how to grow our own food in local city gardens, and meet our needs collectively. Block by block – help rebuild the community- grew something to eat!
In Struggle,
Eddie Conway

I've converted the website and database over to the UTF-8 character encoding. This means that we can now have game chat in all languages from japanese to hebrew! It is a first step towards translating Conquer Club in different languages, and other website improvements.
I also defragmented the database and fixed a few bottlenecks...
- The view entire log link is now 5x faster, which is nice because some longer games took a while to load.
- Each hour, when the website cleans up expired game invites, several games would lock up for about 3 minutes or more. This has been eliminated.
- Game finder searches for specific maps are now much faster.
I'll now start working on these issues:
- Each night several games lock up due to an email issue
- The game interface needs to be more fault tolerant so that it doesn't freeze when the server has a "hiccup".

In order for us to get one of the locations of another wall piece, we think we need to fill up the 50 seats of the for the phantom's play, mentioned in This post . Send in your emails to This Link to fill the spaces up, if you haven't already. We currently just need 19 more people. Lurkers, if you're reading this I invite you to do the same!
The goal of this is not necessarily to find and seal it within the wall, but to obtain it's location as a precaution for the future.

Welcome to PersonalityMD!
The PersonalityMD main screen has progress bars at the bottom to show how much of each Q&A module you have completed.
With this application you can create a detailed profile of your personality, analyze it and find other like-minded people. PersonalityMD goes far beyond a standard personality quiz and provides you with unique analyses of your personality, traits, emotions and even your optimism or pessimism.
A simple to use app, PersonalityMD provides a distinctive two-dimensional response scale, allowing for great self-expression and resulting in an evaluation truly unique to you. You can see how your personality traits compare to those of others and find people in your area who are on the same wavelength (or find out where in the world people on your wavelength are!)
Real psychological science that is flexible and fun to use, our personality tests were developed by Dr. William Sims Bainbridge, a prominent sociologist and the author of many highly regarded publications on social science and personality capture.
Whether you are interested in gaining true insight about yourself, finding like-minded people, or simply entertainment, you will enjoy using PersonalityMD. This User Guide will help you get started.
PersonalityMD is a project of Terasem Movement, Inc., a 501c3 not-for-profit charity endowed for the purpose of educating the public on the practicality and necessity of greatly extending human life, consistent with diversity and unity, via quickly evolving technologies. As part of this mission, TMI is focused on preserving human consciousness through the medium of Mindfiles for future revivification when the technology to do so matures.
In support of its mission, TMI has founded the CyBeRev Project. CyBeRev is an acronym for cybernetic beingness revival. The purpose of the project is to preserve sufficient digital information about a person (as a "Mindfile") so that a future reconstruction of that person will be possible. With technology that futurists already see coming, Terasem Movement believes that we will be able to recover full self-consciousness and functionality for those people who upload sufficiently detailed Mindfiles today. To help achieve that goal, CyBeRev has been created as a place for interested participants to begin storing digital reflections of their mannerisms, personality, recollections, feelings, beliefs, attitudes and values with the greatest possible fidelity.
With a Mindfile on CyBeRev you can store digital reflections in a variety of formats, including images, videos, documents, audio recordings, favorites, personality tests (including PersonalityMD) and more. You can choose to share some, none or all of your information with others through the Visit Reflections feature of the project—and it's all free!

Foray Into The Black Forest...
Hazelnut praline begins to be chopped in the processor:
Hazelnut praline ready to use:
Hazelnut praline, plus a bit of egg custard business, plus this.......equals this:
...possibly. Actually I'm not at all confident that I got this element 100% right. My custard had juuuust started to split, and I decided to go with it anyway. So it looked kind of funny, but I have to say it tasted fantastic. Really.
Cherry compote just in the pan:
Cherry compote about five minutes in:
Once the cherry compote is all boiled down and reduced, it gets separated into two elements: the cooked cherries, and, with a little extra work, the cherry syrup:
Which looks unassuming, but is awesome. The flavour punch is incredible.
So, onto the mascarpone cream - ie. mascarpone cheese, icing sugar & vanilla:
The last layer is covered in a poured ganache, before being transferred to the top of the cake:
And finally, the cake is topped with the candied cherries that I also didn't take photos of the making of, chocolate curls, and fresh (or in my case, maraschino) cherries:
And with any luck, it makes it to the picnic in one piece! (Yes, insanity, I know. But I had my heart set on doing it, and when mum said "picnic", I thought "hmmm. Sure, no problem...")
So, The Big Question: Is It Worth It?

Muffin Tin Monday - Purple
Bottom Row: Carrot sticks (purple carrots grown in our garden); Roasted beetroot & yoghurt dip; Currants (which I explained used to be purple when they were grapes. She has been told this before, but had obviously forgotten, as she was fascinated).
The After Shot:
We Were Clearly Not In The Mood For Carrots Today. She did actually carry on about how yummy they were with the dip when she bit into the first one, but then only ended up eating two. Go figure. Incidentally, I made more dip than this, and found out last night that it works really well as pasta sauce with a bit of prosciutto, spinach, mushroom & feta cheese - yuuuuum...

Muffin Tin Monday - Blue
Bottom Row: Yoghurt with blue sanding sugar; jelly made with grape juice, lime juice, a little blue food colouring, and one of those "create your own flavour" packs of jelly crystals; Frozen blueberries.
The Muffin didn't really like the jelly much - she only ate about a third of it. I asked if it was the flavour (which incidentally I thought was yummy), or if she just wasn't keen on any jelly. She said she just wasn't keen on any jelly. (seriously, what child doesn't like jelly???) (by the way, note to American readers: when I say "jelly", I mean what you would probably call "jello") :o)
To see what (no doubt much healthier) tins other mums did this week, go check out The Muffin Tin Mom's blog.

Muffin Tin Monday - Green
It's Muffin Tin Monday once again, and we are now up to Green in our Colours Of The Rainbow series.
This tin turned out a little differently than I had planned it. I was going to have spinach leaves in it, and also a caterpillar made out of peas. But we went fossicking at the local markets for green fruit/veg elements, and found three green fruits. And then I wondered what sort of more substantial element (carbs?) I could give her that was green, and decided on green pancakes (frozen spinach blended into the pancake batter - The Muffin loves this, and it's a great way to make pancakes healthy). So here's what we ended up with, and it's all very light green and anaemic-looking, but it did actually look tastier in real life, I promise...

White Papers and Application Notes
Comparative Numerical Studies of Scramjet Inlet Performance Using k-? Turbulence Model with Adaptive Grids
Scramjet inlet design remains as a key aspect for hypersonic flight. To assess the inlet design, the performance parameters namely; air-capture ratio, total pressure efficiency, inlet drag coefficient, and kinetic energy efficiency are evaluated and analysed. In the current study comparison of performance parameters is carried out by performing numerical computation of 2-D turbulent flow field for four different scramjet inlet geometries with two different free stream Mach number (M=4 and 5). The numerical computation is performed with the help of Femlab's finite element method tool "Comsol Multiphysics" using the "Turbulent High Mach Number Flow" module provided in it.

There were reasons for that, and the reasons are evident on close inspection of this specimen of the 92FS Pistol. Until 1985 or so, Colt and Browning 9mms would not handle hollowpoints. Smith & Wesson 39 and 59 series pistols would, but the Smiths did not capture the market's imagination, perhaps due to the feel of the 59. Here was a pistol that looked good, felt good, and would handle sharp-nosed Federal and Smith & Wesson Hollowpoint ammo. It was, and is, extremely simply made, very easy to field strip and clean. This particular 92F has served and protected our fellow Americans in California on duty with the distinguished officers of the Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department. Serial number is BER013,000 Z suffix range, so it was manufactured in 1988 from similarly numbered new guns we got that year. This pistol was one of the first issued to LASO when that Department officially adopted the 92F that year. It was on duty, then, during the 1992 Riots. Magazine is original LASO issue pre-ban 15 round. Grips are LA SO issue, as the photos show. Surface detractions are moderate, with extensive edge whitening, and whitening on the serrations of the grip frame. Finish wear is extensive on the outer barrel surface. We rate it as Good, perhaps Very Good, 75 percent vicinity by our estimate. Photos, at any rate, should suffice for prospective owners to judge finish grade for themselves. It is excellent mechanically; bore, chamber, and mechanism are all bright, clean, and excellent. We estimate that it has been fired about 2,500 rounds, no rounds at all for a Beretta 92F.

Missouri Coalition Urging Hotel Employees to Watch For Traffickers
Related Story
COLUMBIA- Employees from around Mid-Missouri gathered earlier this week to learn how to spot human traffickers who could be staying in their hotels.
Human traffickers buy people and use them for forced labor or sex. Central Missouri Stop Human Trafficking Coalition (CMSHTC) said human traffickers often bring their victims to hotels and this is happening in Mid-Missouri.
"There is a demand for buying sex in our community. There's traffickers who are taking advantage finding vulnerable people- men, women and girls and boys," said Nanette Ward co-chair of CMSHTC. "It's just as easy to order a pizza from your hotel room as it is to order a person."
Ward said there's many websites where you can buy people for sex and/or labor and keep them basically as slaves.
Ward said some of the signs of trafficking include:
- If a guest pays for a room in cash
- If cleaning service is refused for several days
- If there is excessive pornography in the room
- If guests check in with no luggage
- If guests are dressed in clothing not suited for the weather
"There have been survivors of sex trafficking who've said 'I wish somebody would notice I'm wearing a short skirt and heels in the middle of winter. I'm trying to look 18 but really I look 14 to you. Get a clue. Tell someone," Ward said.
Officer Tim Thomason with the Columbia Police Department said it's just as important for guests to be aware of the signs as it is for the employees.
"We can't control all of the crime by ourselves at any given time, especially such an undercover crime as human trafficking or prostitution is. We need help from other in the community," said Thomason.
Ward said if you ever are suspicious of trafficking call the police or the National Human Trafficking Hotline at 1-888-373-7888 or text BeFree (233733).

How do I get structural engineering for this plan? Our plans do not include engineering for a specific state, or an engineer's stamp. This service needs to be provided by a local engineer at the location where you are building.
Where can I get a list of the building materials needed to build? We recommend working directly with local building material suppliers (lumber yards). Most suppliers have an in-house estimator who can create a list of materials, with prices. They will need a copy of the house plan to complete this process.
I need to get approvals from my HOA or Historic Zoning Board. Are these additional documents included? Any additional documents needed for interaction with a HOA or Historic Review Board are not included in this purchase. These items can be provided separately. Please contact us for a quote.
How much does it cost to build this house? The price to build a home varies by state and country. We recommend that you show the plan to 3 or 4 builders where you are planning to build, and get thumbnail pricing from them. This will allow you to connect with builders, and move forward with your project easier.
Where can I download this plan? Once you purchase a house plan on our website, we will send you an email which contains the links to download the house plans, in all digital formats.
How can I print these plans? The PDF can be printed at most office supply stores and blueprinters.

DRHOOK- Fat facts: Obesity is costing the US billions
Cindy Crawford is a very smart supermodel. Is that an oxymoron? She married Richard Gere: smart Hollywood move. She was the #1 paid human mannequin. (I would love to be paid $10,000 to walk down a runway in underwear– ummm, let me think about that more.)
She endorsed many products to make millions of dollars. Remember when she drank Pepsi in the commercials? I wondered how many seconds later she spit it out. I thought, "No way can she be that skinny and fit and drink something so high in calories from sugar and high fructose corn syrup!" I figured she would have advertised Diet Pepsi!
High calories can be so taxing— should they be taxed?
According to New York City health commissioner Dr. Thomas R. Frieden, sugar-sweetened beverages should be taxed just as tobacco is. I read an article years ago to "Tax Twinkies" because all the processed sugared foods are contributing to this nation's obesity crisis. Yes, Blanche, crisis!
In 1998, this country spent $74 biiiillion (Carl Sagan enunciation) on medical costs of obesity; in 2008 it ballooned to $147 billion. Do you hear the US government doing anything about obesity to reduce health care costs? (But then again, the President, Senate, Congress, yadda yadda yadda, are all controlled by money from the health insurance companies and pharmaceutical industries. So God forbid stepping on the toes of the food and beverage industries.)
Obese people spend 42 percent more for health care than those who are at normal weight. With one-third of American adults weighing in at obese levels, our health care system has dropped a bomb. Another one-third of Americans are overweight, and the rate of obesity continues to climb. (I'm humming "Elbow Room," from School House Rock, because we're going to run out of room in places from airplanes to movie theaters.)
Americans are living longer than before (although recent studies point out we might have jumped the shark), but at what cost? Medicine, medicine everywhere—
Have you noticed all the ads for diabetic medicines and supplies? With over 25 million Americans with diabetes and over 50 million Americans with pre-diabetes, gas stations ought to carry diabetic supplies. "Fill up with our high octane gas and check your blood sugar before you buy our delicious kettle corn and soda!"
Heart disease costs a lot of money as well, from stress tests to open heart surgery. Cholesterol-lowering medicines, blood pressure medicines, aspirin, and so forth would do a number on the Tin Man in The Wizard of Oz.
"Dorothy, can you oil up my frozen shoulder and give me some nitroglycerin for my heart?"'
Tired of being tired? Out-of-shape people often complain of aches and fatigue. Obstructive sleep apnea can make someone feel like she pulled an "all nighter" for an exam– every day. Men with size 17.5" collar or more are at risk for this apnea because the soft tissue of the neck blocks the airway. And let me tell you, when I buy dress shirts, I get the "hand-me-down" extra fabric from the large shirts that dominate the clothing industry. I can't even buy pants in my waist size in most stores.
I don't see America becoming a slimmer nation. I've lost quite a few patients whose parting words are, "I won't ever exercise. I'll kill anyone who get between my cookies and me. Just give me a pill!"
Maybe I should give them Cindy Crawford's number so she can tell them her secret.
