About Me
I started this blog in 2008 to record how my garden developed, it quickly became a gardening journal and I have loved it every since. I am passionate about horticulture despite working in higher education administration. I have started to re-engage with other hobbies: knitting, sewing and drawing so sometimes the posts on here may be less garden focussed. However, as I don't want to bore you with my new crochet obsession I have started another blog for this and if you are interested there is a link further down this side bar.
I love reading your comments and I do hope you enjoy the blog.

Ramapo Police interrupted a burlary in progress Wednesday, leading to the arrest of two Rockland County Men.
Ramapo Detectives, with aid from the Anti-Crime Unit and patrol officers, discovered the burglary after finding what they called a suspicious vehicle parked on Kupperman Lane in Monsey.
Anton Naumkin, 27, of Suffern and Michael Punch, 25, of Pomona were observed leaving 73 Carlton Road with copper and wiring contained in a large bag and a recycling pail. Both men fled when approached by police.
Anti-Crime officers arrested Naumkin on Carlton Road. Punch led police on a foot chase through a wooded area between College Road and Kupperman lane before being apprehended by Ramapo Detectives.
The suspects were charged as follows:
- Burlgary 3rd degree (Class D felony)
- Criminal Mischief 3rd degree (Class E felony)
- Criminal Possession of Stolen Property 5th degree (Class A misdemeanor)
- Possession of Burglar Tools (Class A misdemeanor)
Punch is currently on parole and was remanded without bail. Naumkin, already out on bail in connection with a January 2012 burglary arrest, was remanded on $50,000 bail. The case will go before the Rockand County Grand Jury next week.

Is the Earth's Magnetic Field Going to Reverse: Part I
Since it's Wednesday, here's something research-related. Here's the number one question that most people ask me when I tell people my field of study: Is the Earth's magnetic field going to reverse? And if it is, are we doomed? I figure, since a lot of people ask me this, they must be interested. And since they think it's related to my field of research, it must be. So I'll do my best to answer the question. I'm probably going to have to break my answer into a couple of parts – at least two.
By the way, I'm using "research-related" loosely here: much of this isn't really part of my own research. When I was a real honest-to-godness paleomagnetist, I used to tell people I studied the early history of the Earth's magnetic field. This basically means I looked at very old rocks (mostly 2.7 billion years old, to be precise) to determine how strong the magnetic field of the Earth used to be. I didn't look at magnetic reversals very much. I only have a pretty cursory understanding of dynamo theory – the physics of the deep-earth processes that generate the magnetic field – and only a passable working knowledge of the historical magnetic field. Plus, I'm moving away from this area of research. I'm starting to look at more environment-related questions – basically, using the magnetic properties of sediments, rocks, and manmade materials to track pollution in the Puget Sound area. So some of you readers may be more qualified to answer this question than I am. But I figure, since people ask me, I should have an answer…
…and my answer is, "Yes." Yes, the magnetic field is going to reverse itself. The north magnetic pole will almost certainly change places with the south at some point in the future, as it has many times in the past. But we cannot say with any certainty when this will happen. Saying that the magnetic field will reverse itself is kind of like saying that the Dow Jones Industrial Average will go up. We can forecast that it will do so in the future – however unlikely it may seem right now – but we can't say whether it will do so tomorrow.
The evidence for past magnetic reversals is pretty solid. If you want the details, read The Road to Jaramillo by William Glen. We've seen plenty of magnetic reversals in the past (first documented by Bernard Brunhès). There is evidence from different kinds of rocks (lava flows and sedimentary rocks) and from rocks in diferent places (lots of locations on land and on the seafloor) that Earth's north magnetic pole has previously switched positions with the south pole. The most recent reversal of positions was only about 780 thousand years ago. There are well-documented reversals going back a few hundred million years, and a good indication of reversals 2.7 billion years ago.
However, we can't predict the future behavior of Earth's magnetic field very well for a few reasons: (1) the physics of what generates it are complicated and poorly understood, and (2) we have very limited observations. Before we go any further, a little background: the main part of Earth's magnetic field is produced by the movement of the molten iron and nickel outer core. It is not produced by the inner core, despite what you might hear in the movies. Because iron and nickel are conductive, swirling these molten metals around causes electrical charge to move. This produces a magnetic field. This is basically Ampère's law, something you may have heard if you took my intro physics class. At the same time, magnetic fields also change the motion of electrical charges (the Lorentz force, also from intro physics…). The interaction between these two effects alone makes it nearly impossible to predict what will happen to the magnetic field in the future. To further complicate things, the outer core is a turbulent mess. It is crystallizing as it cools, forming the inner core. It is convecting as it gives up energy to the mantle above it. The mantle itself is changing with time, changing the temperature at the top of the core. We don't even know the chemistry of the core all that well. No wonder, then, that we can't forecast magnetic reversals. Consider weather forecasts. How much do you trust your TV weather-person (no offense, meteorologists)? And yet we know some basic things about how the atmosphere works (interaction with surface topography, moisture, general wind patterns, etc.) that allow us to predict weather at least a few days out. We don't know a lot of these things about the core.
What's more, we can only observe the outer-core system indirectly, and we have only been recording the Earth's magnetic field for the past few hundred years. That's just a moment when compared to the time since the last reversal. It's even a short amount of time compared to how long we think it takes the magnetic field to reverse (a few thousand years). Think about the analogy with weather forecasts: how well would you be able to forecast the weather if you were only able to see Earth from a satellite? And what if you had only observed it for a few hours? I guess you could compare geomagnetism to trying to forecast the weather on, say, another planet.
We paleo- and geomagnetists find it incredibly exciting that the magnetic field is still so unpredictable. We are fascinated by the complexity of the geodynamo. A lot of us are continually trying to come up with more ways to squeeze more knowledge out of the precious little data we have about the changing magnetic field of the Earth. Some geophysicists are looking at ships' navigation records to get a longer detailed record of changes in the magnetic field. Some are looking at old rocks, even lunar rocks and meteorites, to get an idea of what's happened to Earth's magnetic field over a very long time scale. Some are looking at what Earth's magnetic field is like during a reversal. Are there signs (so-called "precursors") that precede a magnetic reversal? Are there conditions that make reversals more or less likely to happen? These are all big questions that we're still working on. As an aside, in what is perhaps the coolest and most dangerous kind of experiment associated with geomagnetism, you can simulate the physics of the outer core by making a scale model of the Earth's core using liquid sodium (highly flammable! kids, don't try this at home!).
OK – enough about why we don't know when Earth's magnetic field will reverse next. I'm tired and it's late. Next Wednesday, I'll explain why some geomagnetists think that there's a good chance that there will be a reversal sooner than later, and why others think that the chance is slim to nonexistent (I'm in the latter camp). Then the following week I'll explain what the consequences of a magnetic reversal might be (spoiler alert: the consequences are not very dire). Later on I'll get to blogging about how old rocks keep a record of magnetic fields, and why I get to use equipment that my wife thinks I made up (how much nerdier can you get than "cryogenic magnetometer?" Much.).

What is Central Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity?
Central Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity is a non-profit, ecumenical Christian housing ministry that provides and preserves affordable housing for hard-working, limited-income families. New homes are built by volunteers who donate their time, money and materials. Each completed home is then sold to a qualifying family at no profit and with no interest. Through our Critical Home Repair program, volunteers also help existing low-income homeowners restore their homes so they can continue to live in a safe, healthy, decent, and affordable home. Repairs completed by Critital Home Repair include adding weatherization, grab bars, and wheelchair ramps, and painting, landscaping, and other minor repairs.
What is the Habitat Renovation Station?
The Habitat Renovation Stations specialize in the sale of new, used and vintage building materials and supplies, offering items such as lumber, windows, doors, miscellaneous hardware, paint and wall papers, electrical and plumbing fixtures and supplies, ceramic tile and many other items. Two great locations serve the public in Oklahoma City - 1800 N. Broadway Avenue, and 2805 SW 29th Street. The Renovation Stations are open Monday-Friday, 9:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. and Saturdays 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m. We are the Handyman's Headquarters! Contractors, remodelers, handymen and women and curious shoppers can all find something they need. Profits from the Renovation Stations fund construction of new Habitat houses, from four to eight each year.
Is Central Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity associated with a larger organization?
Yes. Central Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity is an affiliate of Habitat for Humanity International, which was founded in 1976. Central Oklahoma Habitat is the largest of some 20 Habitat affiliates in Oklahoma, Tulsa being second largest. There are currently more than 2,100 active affiliates in 100 countries, including all 50 states of the United States, the District of Columbia, Guam and Puerto Rico. See more on Habitat for Humanity International at http://www.habitat.org.
Central Oklahoma Habitat is currently ranked among the top 20 in the nation among Habitat affiliates in production of new homes.
How are Habitat families selected?
Prospective buyers of new Habitat homes must have a stable gross annual income of at least $19,000 a year, and must be willing and able to contribute 300 hours (sweat equity) volunteering in some capacity with Habitat. No down payment is charged. Applicants undergo an extensive screening process, including credit and criminal history checks. A family selection committee, composed of trained volunteers, selects potential Habitat homebuyers based on their level of need, their willingness to become partners in the program, and their ability to repay the loan. Critical Home Repair applicants must fall within 150% of the federal poverty guideline, be the owner-occupants of their homes, and be willing to contribute 60 hours of volunteer sweat equity work on others' homes prior to work on their own.
What type of support is offered to Habitat families?
In addition to building homes for limited-income families, Habitat offers a variety of support services for its homeowners. To assist prospective homeowners in making the transition from renting to home ownership, our board approved families attend a required three-part "Homeowners College," prior to closing on their house. Topics covered by instruction during these classes include legalities of owning a home, homeowner insurance, property taxes, city code enforcement, household budgeting and home maintenance and repair, and lawn care. All prospective Habitat homebuyers also attend two required sessions at Consumer Credit Counseling Services for intensive budgeting training. Trained volunteers serve as support partners for each Habitat family to provide informational assistance and support throughout the home building and buying experience. This partnership is formed as soon as the family has been approved for a Habitat home purchase, and continues during construction and throughout the first year the family lives in their Habitat home.
Before a family moves into their new home, Habitat staff members conduct a walk-through audit of the finished home with the family to familiarize the new owners with the home's systems and routine maintenance needs. Homeowners are given a comprehensive homeowner's manual that was developed to offer additional informational support. Homeowners are also encouraged to participate in the homeowner associations in their new neighborhood.
What are the purchase terms of a Habitat house?
Upon completion of construction of the Habitat home and the family's (sweat equity) hours, the property is deeded to the new homeowner under a zero-interest mortgage note. The term of the mortgage is driven by the house payment, which is based on income. Each family's house payment is based on a percentage of their gross monthly household income at the time of closing. The average house payment is about $580 per month, which includes escrow deductions for property taxes, homeowners insurance, home maintenance, and where applicable, community association dues. Payments are often less than what homeowners were previously paying in rent to live in overcrowded, substandard conditions. All Habitat homeowners' payments (principal) go to fund construction of more Habitat homes.
How is Central Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity funded?
Primary support is received from individuals, corporations, foundations, churches, and civic groups. Habitat secures its administrative costs through earned income. All cash contributions received go directly toward the construction of Habitat homes. Central Oklahoma Habitat is not a United Way agency.
What is your foreclosure rate?
A basic part of the Habitat partnership is that homebuyers repay the cost of their homes, with no profit added and no interest charged. As they make their affordable monthly house payments based on income, their principal goes directly back into Habitat's construction budget, recycling the original gifts that made their homes possible and building more homes for more deserving families. As with any other mortgage, in the rare event that a Habitat homeowner does not make his or her monthly payments, the mortgage is foreclosed. Central Oklahoma Habitat has a 3% foreclosure rate, lower than many banks and mortgage lenders. Habitat homeowners work hard to get into their homes, they appreciate the opportunity to purchase their homes at cost and at no interest, and they know that their house payments are helping more qualified families get into homes of their own.
How many houses have been built or renovated in the Oklahoma City metropolitan area and where are they located?
The 518th Central Oklahoma Habitat home dedicated on May 9, 2009.
Our first area of concentration was Metro Park, a northwest OKC inner-city neighborhood where Central Oklahoma Habitat built its first homes. Some 50 new homes for owner-occupant families have helped to stabilize and revitalize this neighborhood of older homes and working class families. Some 15 homes in or near this area were renovated. All of our other homes have been newly constructed.
Other areas of concentration have included another 50 or so Habitat homes built in the Shidler-Wheeler neighborhood in southeast Oklahoma City, 14 in the Broadway Park Addition in north Oklahoma City, and 30 in the Eastridge Addition in north Midwest City. Many dozens more Habitat homes are scattered across all four quadrants of Oklahoma City, and our rebuilding efforts following the May 3,1999 tornados included 60 homes located in Mulhall, Moore (30), Midwest City (another 20), Choctaw, and Bridge Creek.
In 2004, we constructed our first home in Bethany, in 2005 our first in Guthrie, and in October 2006 we built our first home in Mustang!
Central Oklahoma Habitat constructed an entire neighborhood of 61 homes in the Douglas Meadows Addition in Spencer, our first Habitat-only neighborhood. Located at NE 45th and 46th Streets on the west side of Douglas Blvd., the Douglas Meadows Addition includes a lovely neighborhood park and is home to some 300 people.
In 2007, Central Oklahoma Habitat began building infrastructure in its first full development project - Hope Crossing. Hope Crossing is located on the west side of Kelley Avenue, one-half mile north of Wilshire Blvd. and will be home to 216 families when completely built out. Home construction began in February 2007 and should continue for several years, through 2012.
Central Oklahoma Habitat's Brush with Kindness program began in late 2008 and is working toward a goal of completing weatherization and other repairs on its first 100 homes by the end of 2009.
Central Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity has truly built homes all across the Oklahoma City metro, and looks forward to building in new communities that we are able to reach. As the city and county, as well as private individuals, donate properties to Habitat, we will continue to invest in and improve more neighborhoods in the Oklahoma City metro area.
What are Central Oklahoma Habitat for Humanity's plans for the future?
Central Oklahoma Habitat depends greatly on funds raised privately in the community to build to our current capacity of 45-50 new homes per year. We fund day-to-day construction operations and about half of each year's houses internally through our mortgage base and with income earned from the Habitat Renovation Stations. Income from Habitat's Pick-up Service helps offset the cost of our administrative salaries, allowing every dollar of cash contributions received from donors to go toward funding houses. Habitat's current five-year plan includes construction of at least 45 houses per year through 2013 and working our way up to partnering with at least 100 existing low-income homeowners each year through our Critical Home Repair program.

The challenges of parallel computing
As for parallel computing -- roughly defined as the simultaneous execution of numerous program instructions on multiple or multi-core processors -- Banerjee said that HP is hoping to use its research efforts to help clear some of the software programming obstacles that exist on the market today.
"We're very aware in our research of the challenges of making parallel software applications; we need engineers who can start writing code designed for multi-cores and to help transition software designed to run on a single processor," said Prith.
If some of those roadblocks can be pushed aside, the benefits could be enormous, according to the HP researcher.
"We're imaging a world where you plug in a computer and all the applications work automatically, and users don't have to worry about patches and updates," he said. "We're imagining a world where software is automatically updated and maintained so that environment for end-users will be completely automated and allow them to increase productivity. That is a very difficult problem to solve, but we're going to try to solve it."
Another area of focus for all three organizations is the process of refining their internal research and development operations. Under Prith, HP will attempt to lower its overall number of research projects by folding them into larger efforts, the executive said, and Chien added that Intel is having success with "lablets," groups of researchers it sponsors at academic institutions to augment its internal R&D work.
At Cisco, the massive networking company is attempting to inject an air of entrepreneurialism into areas of research that it believes can be turned into revenue-producing businesses rapidly, as evidenced by the launch of its physical security and telepresence product groups over the last several years, said Guido Jouret, CTO of the firm's Emerging Markets Technology Group.
"We're trying to re-create the start-up atmosphere inside Cisco. So far, we've announced four different units, and the goal is to create one every several months," Jouret said. "We'll also continue to do small acquisitions where we can gain vital technologies or teams to help flesh out our ideas. The idea is to create an interesting mix of entrepreneurial drive."
Along with security and telepresence, the company has launched a digital media group s part of the effort as well as a business devoted to replacing the static product displays found in retails stores today with "digitally-driven network displays."
Jouret said that the telepresence group is working to mesh device geolocation with collaboration tools and multimedia-sharing systems.
"We want to combine video with collaboration platforms for rich multimedia interaction, tools that allow companies and consumers to interact in ways that we can't even imagine yet," he said.

In order to curb alcohol consumption on college campuses, the number of alcohol outlets in the surrounding area must be limited, a new report states.
AScribe reported March 4 that the study, published in the March 2003 edition of the international journal Health and Place, found a link between the large number of alcohol outlets near some school campuses and frequent, high-risk drinking among students.
In one college community, the report found 185 alcohol outlets within two miles of campus. Researchers said these retailers follow a "low profit margin/high volume" business model, which results in an barrage of promotions aimed at students.
The study said that reducing the number of alcohol outlets near colleges requires the support of a diverse range of community members. Among actions that have worked are increasing the cost of alcohol-sales licenses, enacting new zoning laws, and tightening enforcement of building and zoning codes and restrictions.
"Campus communities face an uphill battle when there is high outlet density," said William DeJong, director of the U.S. Department of Education's Higher Education Center. "With these new data in hand, campuses and prevention coalitions will be better prepared to seek reductions in outlet density and thereby stem the flow of alcohol near college campuses."
Weitzman, E., Folkman, A., Folkman, K. & Wechsler, H. (2003) The relationship of alcohol outlet density to heavy and frequent drinking and drinking-related problems among college students at eight universities. Health and Place, 9(1), 1-6.

Taste shocked me as was terrible, probably the worst of all the things I've tried but taste is not why we buy this stuff, you get use to it and soon able to ignore it. I needed something to take on the weekends when i workout in the morning & after the gym I won't be going home to eat a decent meal anytime soon so for my carbs this is probably the best bar i've found & has a nice bit of protein to go with a shake. I'll have this then a hour so later i will have a Protein Cookie, both combined i find give good high amounts of what you need when on the move with convenience without the hassle of carrying cooked food & they fill you up.
Goes Well With:Protein Cookie or Protein Shake

Hold your nose as you eat it. makes the taste alot better. however protein is protein and it has Creatine in it so it does it job.
hmm not sure about the taste.

Had my first taste of the apricot flavoured xs bar. May of been that my taste buds weren't up to scratch following a 12 hour nightshirt and a heavy chest session but it tasted terrible. I've never written a review about a product purely regarding flavour but this was a shock how bad it tasted. I'll push through them obviously! But I'll not be getting them again. I've actually considered they might be a bad batch as these bad boys aren't fit for consumption.
- (05 / Mar / 2014)
Taste varies per bar and even bite to bite. I'm half way through a box and it's always a bit of a lottery what I'm going to get. Some are sweeter than others and there is sometimes a bitter aftertaste - which I guess is the creapure? The apricot flavour is well balanced, but I'd like to see a wider range of flavours.
I use as a second breakfast after an early morning workout and it keeps me going until 12ish.
I'd buy again if there was a greater range of flavours, but will probably got back to Raspberry Oats and Whey as a post workout protien intake. Goes Well With:A cup of coffee to compensate for the bitter taste.
Tasty bars!

I eat half of an avacado everyday and thought it would be nice to have the second half as fresh and pretty as the first so I bought this little gadget. It is good in theory but lacking in reality. You have to cut the avacado in a precise half so that the surface is flush with the surface of the Saver. My cuts are not quite so precise. Maybe there is another tool out there for cutting the avacado. Anyway, you would probably have the same results if you used plastic food storage wrap. I will continue to toss the other half in a ziplock bag.
Does not keep browning away any better than plastic wrap.
The product worked great. There was a tiny bit of browning, but I just scraped it off.

Observing young girls today would lead one to believe they are growing up quicker. With the advent of the Miracle bra and skin-baring styles more suited to Brazilian beaches, girls appear more physically mature than ever. But, despite popular opinion, it's fashion and not physiology that's making them appear that way.
"We encounter some children with early, but normal, onset of true puberty," states Virtua/duPont pediatric endocrinologist, Augustine Chikezie, MD. "But the defined age of onset has not changed. Caucasian girls may start puberty as early as age 8; African-American girls may start at age 7 1/2."
Research indicates that overweight girls have a tendency to reach puberty earlier. Dr. Chikezie explains: "Obese children ususally have advanced bone age, which may trigger the release of hormones that start puberty." If you're concerned that your youngster may actually be going through early puberty, talk with your child's doctor or with a pediatric endocrinologist.
Dressing like Britney Spears
That aside, the more likely reason that it appears girls are maturing sooner is a phenomenon that has been witnessed by every generation. "Kids always want to emulate cultural or pop icons, such as Twiggy, Blondie or Madonna, who get attention for being sexy. It drives their parents crazy," says George Layne, MD, Virtua Health psychiatrist. "But parents need to think back to their own teen years; that will help them accept why their teen wants to dress like Britney Spears," he continues. "It's key to remember that teens will try on many 'costumes' or 'identities' until they find the one that fits best — just as their parents did."
When to be concerned
Parents should become concerned if their child falls way out of the norm of what kids are wearing in a school or neighborhood. "If your child's choice of clothing makes her an outcast, she may be isolating herself from others, which is a sign of depression. If this is accompanied by falling grades, extreme weight loss or gain, sleep problems or a sudden change in friends, you should speak with your child's doctor or a psychiatrist," advises Dr. Layne.

The Libby "Commutation" OUTRAGE
I had vowed that I wasn't going to blog about this one months ago (because I knew it was going to happen as soon as the guilty verdicts came down), and yet, I sit here in such a rage right now about the Libby "commutation" (I write commutation in quotes because if there is a person alive who doesn't believe that this is a precursor to a full pardon after the election, then I have a bridge to sell you - or better yet, a prior promise by the president to let the case "and it's appeals" run it's course). I know that several of you out there complain to me that this blog strays too often from being a public defender blog into a political blog -point well taken, but this cannot be ignored, and this is a public defender issue.
You see, I represent those who commit crimes and actually pay for them, because they are not rich, white and Republican. They go to jail because their crimes are the "bad" crimes, minority crimes, poor person crimes, etc. Maybe I wouldn't be so outraged if I wasn't so convinced that Bush and Cheney told the principles involved in the cover up (Libby & Rove) that they had better cover up the involvement of the top two, and in return, they would get pardoned. In other words, go ahead and commit a crime to cover up our act of treason, and we'll pardon you later. Is there a person alive who believes that Bush really believes the penalty for perjury and obstruction of justice are too harsh? Or is it only applied to Libby (in other words, in contrast to his statement, he really doesn't respect the verdict of the jury)? Has he been going through some introspection concerning the harshness of punishment of late? This, the most retributive of modern presidents, who has utilized the power of pardon and commutation less than any president in a century?
Of course not, there has been been a quid pro quo that has taken place here, which has shown this whole process to be a sham. The investigation into the leak, the special prosecutor, the trial - a joke, one big joke with the outcome predetermined. The only downside for Bush is that he was forced to play his hand before the election, and not after as everyone had been hoping by putting off the sentence until after the appeal (an appeal that never would've finished if it had extended past election day, 2008).
And why is this a proper subject for Public Defender Dude? Well, I'll tell you why Public Defender Dude is so pissed off, rather than me just as a political being. I represent people who commit crimes. They have only one advocate - me. They get convicted based on (sometimes spurious) evidence. They spend very long periods of time in jail for breaking those laws. To hear this president, who has been at the forefront of retributive justice his whole political career, to suddenly be concerned that the punishment is too harsh is sick. What is really going on here, as in the US Attorney scandal, is the utter politicization of crime -Republicans can commit no crimes, only Democrats or groups that ordinarily lean Democratic (ie - poor and minority people, or people out there trying to increase voter participation, or things of the like). Public Defender Dude is utterly seething right now because the fact that we live in a country where there is no equal justice under the law has just been laid bare for the whole world to see in the most blatant, sick, evil, cynical and despotic manner possible.
Think we live in a free, equal, democratic country? Ask my clients how true that is. Or just ask me. I'll tell you to think again.
I sincerely hope the Democratic Congress doesn't let this go. I have no doubt that this had been agreed upon in advance, and that this commutation and pre-pardon are nothing more than a continuing attempt to obstruct justice. Bush's dad did it with Weinberger, North, Poindexter et al. Ford did it with Nixon, and now Bush is doing it with Libby. And to think that Republicans became outraged at the Mark Rich pardon, and now may compare that to this pardon, or blithely ignore that prior outrage to applaud this, just makes me red with anger. They did the same thing with the Lewinsky affair to compare it to Watergate (not really because they meant to say that Lewinsky was that bad, but to attempt to lower the meaning of Watergate by debasing it with comparisons to something as meaningless as the Lewinsky affair). The same thing is set to happen here by the Republican spin machine - this is no different than the Rich pardon - not to make the Rich pardon seem so terrible, but to make this seem so banal.
It is the true banality of evil.
Now that I've got that off my chest, I feel a little bit better.

Shannon begins school and Gerard get's news
- Monday -
Shannon :
So first day at a new school. My mum woke me up at about half 6 because she now knows that im a lazy bitch. I walked down stairs in my pajamas and lied down on the couch.
"Shay, move your legs" Frank yawned pushing my legs away so he could sit down he was already in his uniform
"You change fast" I say a little shocked moving my legs away
"yeah, i woke up at 6" he smiled.
"Im going to get changed" i say standing up and heading out the door. Mitchel was coming down the stairs and didnt talk to me, I dont even think we have said one word to eachother not that i really cared. I grabbed my uniform, eyeliner, hairbrush and curlers. I felt like curling my hair today. On my blazer i had 2 Guns N' Roses badges, a Misfits badge, a smiley face badge and a Queen badge to add a little bit of me to it. when i got down stairs it was quarter to eight and Frank was holding my cup of coffee.
"Hurry up bus is arriving at 8" he laughed handing me the cup. I take it off him and sigh.
"does Gerard and Mikey get the bus" I ask as i put my red and black checked backpack on my back. Frank turned around as he was looking out the window.
"Yes.... Why ?" he said the 'why' with suspicion
"because theyre awesome" i reply putting my cup in the sink.
"Come on lets catch the bus" he laughed and pulled me out the door. When we got to the bus stop about 8 people looked at me and Frank and they were going to my school. They began whispering
"ignore them Shay" Frank said as the bus approached us. We got in and I seen Mikey sitting with a girl and Gerard sitting beside a boy with an afro and a girl.
"Hey guys" Frank said sitting down infront of Gerard. I sat beside Gerard because Frank put his feet up before i could sit down. the guy with the afro and the girl turned around.
"Hi, im Ray" the guy with the afro spoke to me smiling.
"Im Krysta" the girl said next
"Im Shannon but you can call me Shay im Franks twin" i reply theyre faces were abit shocked but i didnt care.
"So, hows you Shay?" Gerard finally spoke scratching his ear.
"Okay, you?" i reply with a smile.
"alright" he smiled then started humming a tune. I just talked to Krysta and Ray the whole bus journey as Frank was showing Gerard Charlie The Unicorn.
"Okay, why did they take his kidney?" Gerard was confused by it. Frank just laughed
"PUT A BANANA IN YOUR EAR" i began to sing. This confused Gerard even more and Frank was taking a laughing fit. Then the bus stopped and we got out. I followed the guys (and Krysta) over to a oak tree where they sat under it. I sat beside Gerard.
"So, whats your first class?" Gerard asked me lighting up a cigarette
"hang on lemme check" i reply opening my bag and looking for the timetable my mum gave me
"Okay I have English" I say looking at the timetable
"Sweet so do I" Gerard suddently beemed as if he won the lottery or something like that. When the bell rung Ray and Frank walked to French and Krysta met up with some of her friends who she said i have to meet later.
"Lets go" Gerard said standing up and putting out his hand to help me up. I grab it and we walk to English. The english teacher was a short 30 - 35 year old girl with shoulder length brown hair. When i walked into the room she put her attention over to me
"you must be Shannon Iero ?" she asked walking over to me
"Maguire, Shannon Maguire" i corrected her. She now seemed confused
"It says that your name is Shannon Iero" she looked at the sheet
"ill say to my mum" I reply. She nodded and handed me my text books then i turned around i was going to sit beside Gerard only a blonde haired girl sat down beside him so i sat beside a red haired girl.
"hi" i say to her as i sat down
"hello" she replied not taking her eyes off a book she was reading it was called Ash
"i read that book" i smiled. She turned around and faced me
"really ?" She smiled.
"yeah i read it last year its a good book" i nodded my head
"awesome, my name is Sherry" She smiled
"im Shannon, but you can just call me Shay" i reply with a laugh at the end. English dragged in but i kept looking over at Gerard he seemed pissed off becuase that blonde girl was sitting beside him, i dont think he wanted her to sit there. After english he came up to me but i was in I.T and he was in Science. But the blonde girl dragged me into the bathroom i seen Sherry looking for me but the blonde girl pulled me away before i could say anything
"Stay away from Gerards group" she shouted at me.
"excuse me" i reply a little shocked and confused
"Gerard is mine bitch" she replied pushing me abit
"hey i cant help that frank is my twin" i reply shrugging my shoulders
"no your not Franks twin" she replied laughing
"yes i am, why?" i reply a bit curious
"i have never seen you before" She replied with a smart voice
"i lived with my dad and he decided that its better if i move in with my mum" i reply looking down
"aww, your dad didnt want you then" she replied with sarcasm and fake sadness
"Fuck you" i reply and push her into the wall
"just stay away from Gerard" she replied then left the bathroom, it looks like i made a enemy. As soon as she left i got a text from Gerard and i had missed I.T she kept me threr for a whole 2 periods ???
From : Gerard :D
hey, can u meet me @ the skool gates later, need 2 talk 2 u
i sigh and reply
yep bcuz i needa talk 2 u 2 .....
within a flash he replied
what about ???
i wasnt going to tell him through texts
u will find out later i have to go 2 art
then as soon as i walked out the bathroom door i got another message
im in art 2
i decided not to reply and he was in my art class but the blonde girl wasnt so i think i was able to sit beside Gerard. As soon as i walked through the door Gerard smiled at me and i quickly went up and sat beside him.
"Ignore Rose, please, she has a giant crush on me, and she thinks i like her to and she tries to keep other girls away from me" he explained very quickly im surprised i even made him out but i did.
"okay" i smiled then we basically talked during the lesson because we were getting covered and the cover teacher told us to do whatever so we got a free period. Gerard got a text from Frank which made his face go pure white

This is the wall clock with small moving gears that rotate a large outer sprocket that tells the time. Instead of hands, the industrial clock has a simple arrow that points to the current time on the large, outer dial, which makes a full revolution twice a day. Powered by the four fixed internal spur gears, the large clock is nearly 2' in diameter, with bold numbers that are easy to read from a distance and submarkings at each 15-minute interval. Contrary to its prodigious size, this clock is constructed from lightweight ABS plastic with a metallic finish, making it easy to mount on any wall surface. Requires two D batteries.

Very nice novelty
By picoFarad
from Virginia
This clock is clever and unique in design. The small gears spin slowly and deliberately, and most important, silently. We love it. One important observation, not a complaint, is this: This clock is really a novelty rather than a nice decorating item, primarily due to the obviously plastic construction. With real metal or even metal coating/finish, it could be the latter.

Keeps time great!
By Tammy
from Alabama
Even though it isn't metal like I had hoped, it still has that look. Very simple to put together, install, and get working. Keeps time great!
Good Conversation Piece
By recently retired

We recently renovated our kitchen and had a large wall space that needed something different hung there.There were no instructions whatsoever. We were OK with assembly but that might not be in all cases.

Nice Conversation Piece
By Becky
from Florida
Nice looking piece and it's very big and readable. So far, it's keeping time with only a few minor adjustments.Can clearly see it from across a large room. Great the the time is always at the 12:00 position.Very nice.
This clock is very unique
By big dog
from Bradenton, Fl.
This clock is very unique and looks great in the space I had for it on my enclosed porch.
It's different for sure
By Tom H
from Hooksett NH
The first clock I received didn't work correctly. The unit has two different drive motors: one is for the clock itself and the second is for the exposed gears that move but are for display purposes only. The unit takes two "D" batteries, one for each motor.My problem was that the clock motor didn't move the time gear at all.H&S was quick to send a replacement and that one worked and is keeping good time. Just realize that the large gear that "tells the time" has quarter hour markings only so you can estimate the time but it isn't going to give you an exact time to the second or even to the minute.Is is very attractive and catches the attention of new visitors right away.
Hammacher Schlemmer Response: While we regret that this product didn't delight you, we are gratified that you took advantage of our unconditional Lifetime Guarantee. That is why we make it easy to return an item—simply call our customer service team at 1-800-321-1484 at your convenience and they will be happy to assist you.

With changes in the general economy have come changes in the self-storage finance world. Self-storage lenders, like those for all commercial real estate, apply more stringent underwriting standards when evaluating the potential of a construction, permanent or other self-storage loans. Even the refinancing process has become more challenging for self-storage owners, who must weigh their options and exit strategies. Some negotiate with lenders in an attempt to salvage underperforming self-storage properties. Tax issues are also a significant concern for self-storage owners. Cost segregation and 1031 exchange are possibilities to be explored. Financial and operating performance is reported quarterly by the self-storage real estate investment trusts (REITs): Public Storage Inc., U-Store-It Trust, Sovran Self Storage and Extra Space Storage.

Does physical freedom and movement in the classroom improve student focus?
By Monica Van Aken, Ed. D, Head of School
In the Spring of 2006, obesity researchers at the Mayo Clinic produced an innovative design for the classroom of the future. instead of chairs, students would use "standing desks" to incorporate movement into every classroom activity. With ever-rising obesity and ever-shrinking time for physical education, researchers proved that kids need and want to move, can learn while doing so, and some even learn better in an active environment.
Consider our classrooms. Students are always free to sit where they wish with others at tables, or alone on mats on the floor. They move about the classroom all day, rarely receiving lessons in the same seat. They use hands-on materials to solve math problems, learn the parts of speech, unroll timelines in the hallway and use the information to write reports on beasts of the Cambrian period. They work on table-sized and wall-sized maps. They read aloud, practice Spanish conversation, recite grammar rules, receive botany lessons in the greenhouse in the early Spring, and use steam tables and microscopes.
It seems that Maria Montessori knew 100 years ago what the scientists are just now proving: Children who have the freedom to move and explore are engaged and focused throughout the day. Glad we are ahead of the curve!

The Department is vested with the authority and duty to administer the Metro Building Code as well as the Metro Zoning Code – therefore, the Department is logically able to function as the "umbrella" agency administering the "permit process" – this process is linked electronically to other Metro agencies (Water Services, Public Works, Fire Marshall, etc.) to facilitate processing of applications for permits.
The Department is a "general fund" department – the Director of Codes reports directly to Nashville's Mayor.
All of the costs necessary to operate the Department are fully recovered each year through "user fees" charged by the department as permit fees, license fees, plans review fees, appeal fees, and inspection fees.
In other words, costs to operate the Department are covered by those who do business with the Department – NOT by the taxpayers.

Gamble Ranch makes up a third of the 2008 Napa Valley Chardonnay, accounting for the wine's luscious tropical flavors. Our Stanly Ranch vineyard in Carneros is also a large component of the blend, which added bright citrus notes and a lovely minerality. Flavors of roasted pineapple, ripe apples and lemon meringue are accented by aromas of vanilla and sweet citrus. The wine's bright citrus notes and nice acid balance are an ideal counterpoint to its rich, honeyed fruit flavors.
"Tart apple and honeyed apricot flavors combine the firm with the luscious. It's a gentle, warm, minerally chardonnay to serve with any roast white meats, particularly port stuffed with fruit. Best Buy"

Wasting food
For me, one of the drawback to living in the suburbs is food wasting. We have a tendency to stock up on foods during our weekly trips to the supermarket. Fresh fruits and vegetables, of course, do not keep for very long. Not only that, nutrient contents start to decrease the moment it is harvested at the farm.
Since moving to Boston, I am so happy to say, I have not let a single tomato go bad or chuck any wilting lettuce out. Thank goodness the grocery store is so conveniently close by that I only need to buy enough for the day or next. The less I throw out the more I save which is great!
This noodle soup was inspired by a soup recipe I read somewhere online before.
Ingredient list
- Baby bok choy
- Shitaki Mushrooms
- Beef
- Onions
- Scallions
- Korean noodles
- Sesame oil
Broth: Water+salt+mushroom+ a dash of sesame oil
Bring broth to a rolling boil and add the beef last. Meanwhile, layer the ingredients in soup bowl: noodles, choy, onions and scallion on top. Pour broth into bowl. Grind some fresh black pepper and you're good to go.
