In a little white gallery nestled in the heart of Coconut Grove, six Coral Gables Senior High students are learning what it means to be a working visual artist.
A midterm exhibition of their work, Is It Because I'm Not, was on view recently at the Lewis Arts Studio, 101 Grand Ave. in the Grove.
The exhibition – an eclectic mix of traditional pencil and charcoal sketches, mixed media collages, and sculpture – represents the culmination of four months' work for the young artists under the tutelage of veteran mixed media artist Yanira Collado. The program is the brainchild of Arts for Learning, a regional art-in-education nonprofit that partners with local schools and community organizations.
For Collado, the goal has been to teach her students that art is an intensive, often research-driven, deliberate process.
"People think artists are kind of flaky, and don't think, and just 'produce' work. But artists do a lot of work in order to produce art," Collado said. "I want [my students] to be able to defend their work and make connections."
Collado teaches her students how to draft artist statements, perform constructive critiques of each other's work, and do research to understand the traditions and images they borrow.
They watch documentaries, write their own press releases, and even took a field trip to Art Basel.
Cassius Jackson finds inspiration in the mundane: he produced a juice box still life while in class, and a cartoon caricature of a tattooed man on a bus. And while he says he's traditionally liked to work in a "cartoon, graffiti-style," alongside Collado, he's begun delving more seriously into portraiture.
Working off a sketch of a man's mug shot, Michael Hernandez superimposed his own name, initials and date of birth .
His piece pays homage to the artistic skills his father – a graffiti artist – and family have helped him develop.
"My brother is a tattoo artist, and he's been teaching me how to tattoo. I've been learning his steps and my Dad's steps. [My father] is the one that taught me how to do these letterings," he said.
Damiya Evans, too, makes deeply personal work.
"Sometimes I feel invisible, I like to party, I'm a people person, I'm at the age to where I can date, I don't do drugs, they just … stand there," Evans said, pointing to different elements on her mixed media self-portrait collage.
Arlis Dezayas draws inspiration from ancient China: one piece features koi fish, Chinese characters, and the yin-yang symbol.
But far from being a perfect circle, the yin-yang is marred by a few drips of paint. For Dezayas, this represents part of her evolution as an artist while in the program.
"It's taught me to not be afraid to mess up my work. I used to be very precise with my work, I would draw scared, afraid to make […] mistakes."

In fact, I admit to being one of many saying "Mark who" when he was touted as the most likely replacement for John Wright as Black Caps coach.
And I actually had a tinge of sympathy for Hesson when he got the job.
After all, the general feeling around cricketing circles was that New Zealand Cricket should have turned over heaven and earth to retain "Wrighty" and, when they didn't, whoever stepped into the role was always going to be on a hiding to nothing ... at least until they had banked some notable wins in the international arena.
So back then I was prepared to give Hesson the benefit of the doubt. Don't judge him until he had settled into his new position, I thought.
Well, the settling in period is over and, while I readily concede it is always easy to make judgments from the outside, I have to say I don't particularly like what I see.
That Hesson has played a big part in all the speculation about Ross Taylor being replaced as the Black Caps captain is without question. He was always seen as a strong supporter of Brendon McCullum to take over the reins, something which was increasingly looking on the cards at the time these notes were penned.
I have no problem with the second part of that equation. Hesson and McCullum obviously forged a close relationship as coach and player in Otago and statistics suggest they do work well together.
So I can accept that Hesson would have been delighted had McCullum been given the nod over Taylor when the captaincy was up for grabs.
History shows that didn't happen and, to me, that put the onus on Hesson - who is also part of the selection panel - to show he was not interested in playing favourites, that he would back Taylor for all he was worth as he went through what was always going to be a difficult baptism as team leader.
Difficult because the Black Caps were lacking consistency in practically all forms of the game and, with some tough battles coming up, the odds were that some lean times lay ahead. And, that being the case, there was always likely to be the odd player or two who became disgruntled, as much by their own poor form as that of the team.
Talk of mutinies in the dressing room are, in fact, a common occurrence in cricket, a sport in which players can have a lot of "dead time" to mull about what is happening on and off the field of play. Blaming the captain for their inadequacies is invariably top of the excuse list and, for those in that role, learning how to cope will never happen overnight. And if the captain doesn't have the coach firmly in his corner then life can get mighty lonely at times.
It speaks volumes for Taylor then that despite Hesson's all-too-obvious preference for McCullum as captain he has mainly managed to lead from the front. In their test win over Sri Lanka, he was deservedly man of the match after knocks of 142 and 74 and is now sitting eighth on the ICC ranking for test batting.
He is also one of this country's best-ever slip fieldsmen ... at one stage last summer he averaged a non-wicketkeeper world record of one catch per innings in tests.
It's not as if Taylor doesn't have the cricketing community on his side either. A website poll has 53 per cent of the respondents backing him and 25.2 per cent McCullum.
Which all adds strength to the theory that no matter who has the captaincy for the forthcoming tour of South Africa it is Hesson who will most come under the microscope.
Essentially, he will be in charge of a side divided very much by his own actions and, if they fail to perform, then he won't have far to look to guess whose head will be first on the chopping block.

Mayor Rahm Emanuel attended a ground-breaking ceremony Saturday for a new playground at the Back of the Yards park where 13 people were shot in September.
Chicago Park District Supt. Michael P. Kelly and Ald. Willie B. Cochran also gathered with the mayor and area residents to break ground for a new playground at Cornell Square Park, 1809 W. 50th St., according to a release issued by the mayor's office.
An estimated $577,000--including $335,000 from NATO and $242,000 from the park district--will be invested into the playground, which was last renovated in 1991.
According to the mayor's office, new playground equipment will be installed that exceeds accessibility guidelines set by the Americans with Disabilities Act. The project will also involve new benches, lighting and landscape work.
"Adding in this new playground will help us 'take back the park' and bring the community together by offering a new, safe space for children and families to play," Cochran said in the release.
Thirteen people, including a 3-year-old boy, were wounded when two gunmen opened fire on a crowd gathered on one of the park's basketball courts Sept. 19. Six men have been charged in the shooting, which prosecutors said was revenge for a minor gang-related shooting several hours earlier.
Earlier this month, Emanuel announced a "Play Safe, Stay Safe" program, in which the park district will help fund overtime for increased police patrols in parks, according to the release.

Super Bowl gauge says stocks to win big in 2013
The annual indicator says no matter which team wins, investors will have a very good year.
But this year, the prediction is a little odd. According to the indicator, stocks will go up this year no matter which team wins the championship.
The indicator says the market will rise when a team from the original National Football League wins the Super Bowl. This goes back to the time when there was also an American Football League in operation from 1960 to 1969. The AFL teams became part of the NFL in 1970.
This year, both teams hail from the original National Football League. Well, the Baltimore Ravens technically didn't exist until 1996, but the team originated from the Cleveland Browns, which was part of the NFL. So it counts, right? One could argue that the San Francisco 49ers might have a little more NFL cred, so maybe investors should be rooting for a 49er victory.
At any rate, it seems like this year's game is a big green light for jumping back into the market. But wait, let's look at what happened the last time two original NFL teams played each other. That happened in 2001, when the Ravens absolutely trounced New York Giants.
That was not the best year for the markets, according to the Wall Street Sector Selector site. The Dow Jones Industrial Average ($INDU) fell 7.1% and the Standard & Poor's 500 Index ($INX) fell 13.04%.
In other words, don't rely on one football game for your investing strategy this year. But if you want another sign that stocks might behave nicely this year, check out the "January effect." MSN Money's Charley Blaine writes that this indicator shows that a higher market (measured by the S&P 500) in January leads to a higher market for the year, and it's correct about 75% of the time.
The S&P 500 is on track to finish at 1,500, up 5.1% for the month, its best January since 1997.

LOS ANGELES (AP) - The family of a honeymooning tourist killed when a driver plowed a sedan through a crowd on the Venice Beach boardwalk says her death was a tremendous injustice. Relatives of 32-year-old Alice Gruppioni said in a statement Monday that she was robbed of her life while living her dream of visiting California with her husband. The statement says Gruppioni was a business-oriented person who never ceased to be a romantic girl dreaming about her bridal gown and meeting Prince Charming, which she did. Saturday's hit-and-run rampage also injured 11 other peoples. Authorities arrested a man after he walked into a police station and said he was involved. Investigators declined to discuss a motive but say 38-year-old Nathan Louis Campbell acted alone.
LOS ANGELES (AP) - Los Angeles police have arrested a man on suspicion of intentionally driving into crowds at the Venice Beach boardwalk, killing an Italian woman on her honeymoon and injuring 11 others. Police say 38-year-old Nathan Campbell has been booked for investigation of murder and remains jailed Sunday on $1 million bail. He turned himself about two hours after the attack that occurred at around 6 p.m. Saturday. Investigators don't yet have a motive. Witnesses reported a horrendous scene of people scattered and bloody in the popular tourist area. A coroner's investigator tells City News Service that the dead woman is 32-year-old Alice Gruppioni of Italy. Police say another victim was critically hurt, two were in serious condition and others were treated for less serious injuries.

Old Clayburn Schoolhouse, Abbotsford B.C. - Justin + Ashley
Posted by Nikki Dawn Photography on
This wedding was very dear to me and I was so PUMPED to be apart of it! Ashley is one of my very special friends. We worked side by side for many many years back in our serving days. I wouldn't exactly say the gold ol days… We were young, stressed about money and life in general, but we definitely had some fun and a great group of girls to work with.
Well Ashley I am thrilled to say that we have come a long way. We both have amazing husbands, adorable kids (if I do say so myself) and though life will never be stress free, those stresses are just different. I am so happy you found the man of your dreams. You were such a beautiful bride and Justin you are one very lucky dude!
It was a beautiful summer day and the sun was shining. Justin had a pep in his step as he danced down the isle with a smile on his face. Excited to see his bride.. and she was glowing.
This wonderful bridal party was so much fun. A tight knit group of family and friends. They had such fun ideas and though one of these 6 gorgeous girls is a wedding photographer herself, she did very well on the other side of the camera. (shout out to Kerensa of Kerensa Leigh Photography).
For those of you who know Abbotsford, you know that Clayburn Village is such a fun place to go… especially to the huge candy store ;) So when Ashley told me the wedding was going to be at the Old Clayburn Schoolhouse I knew it would be amazing. Such a great location. The building added so much character to the decor and the vision came together beautifully. All the little details that these girls spent hours putting together were amazing. The night was perfect… full of laughter and tears and a whole lot of fun!
Thanks Justin + Ashely… thank you so much for choosing me to play such a role in your big day. It was truly an honor! ENJOY ~

U.S. Mint rolls out a new penny
The Lincoln Cent has been redesigned again. But not everyone is celebrating.
This post comes from Anna Vander Broek of MSN Money.
Those of you who still use the penny as currency (rather than as a screwdriver or for scratching off lottery tickets) may soon notice America's 1-cent coin has gotten a facelift.
The U.S. Mint has changed the design for the reverse -- or "tails" -- side of the 2010 Lincoln Cent, which entered circulation on Feb. 11 (everywhere but Puerto Rico, which received the new penny in late January). Michael White from the U.S. Mint says penny inventory is very high, however, so you may not see a new penny right away.
The U.S. Mint kicked off the release of the new penny during a ceremony at the Abraham Lincoln Presidential Library and Museum in Springfield, Ill. The design was chosen out of 18 candidates. Treasury Secretary Timothy Geithner made the final call.
The penny's new reverse side features a union shield with 13 vertical stripes and a scroll draped across reading "One Cent." (Check your nearest couch cushion and you'll see the old penny portrays the Lincoln Memorial.) The Web site of the U.S. Mint explains that the stripes represent the 13 original states and the banner signifies "a single union in support of the federal government." The new penny's front face will continue to illustrate President Lincoln, designed by American sculptor Victor David Brenner back in 1909.
- Bing: Penny stocks to buy now
The 2010 penny follows the four different reverse designs, each one depicting a stage of Lincoln's life, used on the 2009 Lincoln pennies. The special pennies were produced last year to commemorate the bicentennial of Lincoln's birth and the 100th anniversary of the Lincoln Cent.
A penny for your thoughts
Not everyone is excited about the prospect of a new penny. Some would rather see the coin disappear altogether. The anti-penny group Citizens for Retiring the Penny explains on its Web site why it believes the penny is a waste of time and money.
The half penny was eliminated in 1858, when it was worth over 10 times what the penny is worth today. Assuming that the timing was correct before, this means that we should have eliminated the penny 50 years ago.
Some Americans won't even accept the penny as currency. Alko Office Supply, owned by Gary Shows in downtown Berkeley, Calif., has a sign hanging over the cash register that reads, "We are a penny free store," reports NPR.org in a story debating the worth of the penny.
Even President Obama seems to think the penny has overstayed its welcome. "We have been trying to eliminate the penny for quite some time -- it always comes back," he said at a press conference in 2008, according to a blog post on Politico.com. (Although in 2005 when Obama was a senator from Illinois, he co-sponsored the Abraham Lincoln Bicentennial One-Cent Coin Redesign Act, which required the new penny designs in 2009 and 2010.)
A penny actually costs more to make than it's worth. In 2009, the unit cost to produce the penny was 1.62 cents, according to the U.S. Mint.
Find a penny, pick it up
The penny still has many fans. Pro-penny group Americans for Common Cents "aims to inform and educate policymakers, consumers and the media about the penny's economic, cultural and historical significance." The group also emphasizes the penny's importance for charity through organizations such as Penny Lovers of America and Habitat for Humanity's Parade of Pennies.
A poll conducted by Coinstar in 2006 found that only 27% of Americans want to get rid of the penny. Four out of five Americans will still pick up a penny on the ground.

Grayhill's Multi-Touch Ring Encoder with Instinct features a touchpad on the device's surface recognizes multiple finger touches and motions and transmits them via USB to a CPU that decodes the gestures and carries them out on the display. This way, the user gets the benefits of gesture recognition without ever touching the display. For more precise control, a ring encoder encircles the touchpad and the entire knob can be pressed. The rotary function allows the user to scroll through options and the pushbutton selects the desired setting. With the implementation of the Instinct Ring Encoder, other devices such as joysticks, touchpads, trackballs and pushbuttons can be eliminated.LISTED UNDER: Input Devices

The Speakers Corner helps connect think tanks, academia, the media and the public to a diverse group of experts who can speak to UNDP's commitment to "empower lives" and build "resilient nations."
14 Jun 2011
While the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) and human rights are often thought of as separate concepts, synergies exist in practice. Human rights approaches seek to address the root causes of development problems. As former Secretary-General Kofi Annan once said, "Human rights can be found at the heart of every major challenge facing humanity." At the same time, human development embraces the range of social, economic, cultural, and political rights as defined by the international community. Human development is about expanding the choices people have to lead lives which they value, the resources to make those choices meaningful, and the security to ensure that those choices can be exercised in peace. Making these links between the human development approach and human rights instruments and international laws is consistent with the approach set out in the Millennium Declaration. The words of the Millennium Declaration are clear. "We will spare no effort to promote democracy and strengthen the rule of law, as well as respect for all internationally recognized human rights and fundamental freedoms, including the right to development." Read the full Declaration By signing that document in 2000, Heads of State and Government committed themselves to upholding the Universal Declaration of Human Rights;Read More
10 Jun 2011
Since 2000, the Millennium Development Goals (MDGs) have served as a rallying cry for governments and peoples around the world. Without doubt, significant progress has been made. On average, people almost everywhere live longer and healthier lives, are better educated, and endure less poverty than ever before. Additionally, according to the World Bank's 2011 Global Monitoring Report on the MDGs, half of the countries now falling short of the MDG targets are not far away from them. Yet we are all aware of the obstacles in the way. Progress towards the Goals and targets has often been slow and uneven. Moving forward, development actors can do more to accelerate and sustain MDG progress. Narrow sectoral strategies must be replaced by a focus on the drivers of transformational change and by maximising the synergies across different strands of development work. For example, we need to back interventions which will have the greatest multiplier effects across the MDGs. UNDP identified a range of these in its 2010 International Assessment on achieving the MDGs. Initiatives which empower women are a powerful driver of progress across the Goals. Similarly, expanding access to energy can simultaneously help keep children in school, enable health services to functionRead More

While the global annual rate of new HIV infections declined by nearly 25 per cent from 2001-2009, the epidemic continues to outpace the response. Two people were newly infected for each individual who started antiretroviral (ARV) therapy in 2009. Read the full report "AIDS at 30: Nations at the Crossroads". Thirty years into the epidemic, how do we renew HIV prevention to meet the target set for zero new infections by 2015? To get to zero new infections, the world needs a massive focus on prevention. First, we need to get rid of stigma and discrimination. We need to tackle the health and social inequalities, the myths, and the violence which drive the HIV/AIDS epidemic and stand in the way of effective prevention and treatment. Second, successful prevention needs strong leadership at all levels to bring HIV out of the shadows, to encourage people to make responsible choices, and to drive interventions which will meet the needs of vulnerable groups. Third, legal frameworks need to accommodate effective responses to HIV. Where human rights are not upheld, genuine universal access to services is impossible. The Global Commission on HIV and the Law convened by UNDP on behalf of the UNAIDS family is compilingRead More

Now We Are SixPosted by Lawrence Dillon in Uncategorized
Today this blog embarks on its seventh year, calling to mind the words of A. A. Milne:
"the only excuse which I have yet discovered for writing anything is that I want to write it; and I should be as proud to be delivered of a Telephone Directory con amore as I should be ashamed to create a Blank Verse Tragedy at the bidding of others."
So brace yourself for another year of unbidden Blank Verse Comedy from infinite curves.
The new year is a time to shed old habits. I'm not very good at shedding old habits, though, so I'll begin this year the same way I have the last five: by reviewing some highlights from the last 12 months.
The Daedalus Quartet premieres The Infinite Sphere in Washington, Winston-Salem and Philadelphia.
Recording Infinite Sphere with the Daedalus Quartet; rehearsing Through the Night with the Emerson Quartet. Albany Records releases Appendage and Other Stories, a disk of vocal works.
Emerson Quartet gives the premiere of Through the Night in Cologne. Daedalus Quartet records Flight and Air.
First three American performances of Through the Night in Winston-Salem, Seattle and our nation's capital.
Figments and Fragments debuts in southern California and The Infinite Sphere is played in New York.
Two performances of The Better Angels of Our Nature at the Ravinia Festival.
Guest residency at the Wintergreen Summer Arts Academy.
Fanfare Magazine weighs in on Appendage and Other Stories.
Cool Night debuts in Utah, Better Angels in Pennsylvania.
Emerson Quartet plays Through the Night in New York and Philadelphia; some guest teaching at SUNY Stony Brook and Curtis; Bridge releases Insects and Paper Airplanes.
Figments and Fragments in Salt Lake City and Boise, and a premiere for Brio.
Fanfare Magazine's "Best of 2010" list for Appendage and Other Stories.
Sometimes old habits taste like old wine; sometimes they taste like old fish. 2010 was one of the good years. A heartfelt thanks to everyone out there who played, listened to or even thought about my work.
Let's get 2011 rolling now, shall we?

"I was walking every morning at 5 a.m. with my dog and then I heard that this happened and I was like - I want a buddy - can you walk with me?" asks Tabitha Ragsdale of her friend Amanda King.
The two are heightened alert ever since they learned of an alleged sexual assault in their Ypsilanti Township neighborhood.
"It's sad - it's real sad because there's so many negative things that you hear about and you don't want it to be so close to home," says King.
But what's alleged to happen occurred in their neighborhood at Cary Drive and Textile Rd.
A 21-year-old woman told Washtenaw County Sheriff's Deputies that her car broke down. while she was waiting for her father two men attacked her.
The sketch of one man is posted in this story. He is described as six feet tall, thin and dark completed.
The other suspect has a medium build, 5'6", light complexion, with a mole or birthmark on his left cheek.
Anyone with information is asked to call the Washtenaw Sheriff's Department.

Is economics a science aimed at deceiving people?
I recently heard in the news that Spain faces an imminent economic ruin, because statistically there are going to be lots of elderly people who are unproductive. This devastating message was announced by some highly educated economist.
Am I alone in thinking that a large pool of potential customers is an opportunity rather than a threat? In my view the senior citizens are a blessing to the economy. Younger people will find lots of employment in extending their loving care to them, particularly to those without a family. Elderly people need to be looked after by doctors, physiotherapists, entertainers, they will want to travel and to play etc etc and they have their retirement pensions to pay for all these things.
I believe that economists are either spun out as not to be able to think reasonably or that they disseminate false statements on purpose to further oppress the population at large. Judging by their looks, the latter is the case.
Another good example of how economists bend the reality to serve their cunning aims, is how they insist that at the time of mass unemployment, the retirement age should be ... extended! In other words economists propose that where there is a shortage of jobs, those jobs which could be made available, will not be available. Is that standing the world on its head or what?

Jan 16 2013: Good John. Also, Jarek these people often have agendas. Employers often want to lower wages and advocate immigration to do that and other things that the rest of us may not want. There are many expenses associated with kids so we shouldn't just pick on the old people. In America the schools are broke, but Social Security has historically been viewed as an account from which money can be borrowed - sounds like a political agenda unless you trust politicans more than I do.
John Smith 30+Jan 16 2013: It's not that economists themselves have a vested interest in supporting big business, but the people who wrote their textbooks and invented the theories did. It's really striking how much economists accept for facts when there has never been any research to support it, or worse, when the research that does exist points to the contrary. In science you can't get away with that, in economics you ca, there is so little self-correction in economics.
When an economics textbook says "human beings always try to maximize material profit in their interactions" this applies to the sort of people that go into economics or big business, but not the general population, still this assumption was penned down without any research into it having been done and now that there has been some research to the contrary, that research is flatly ignored.

God has been very busy in my life in the last few months.
I didn't really see just how busy He's been until last night when I took time to reflect so I have quite a bit to be thankful for but I am thankful for the blessings of my job.
To some a C.N.A. or Certified Nursing Assistant is nothing more than a glorified babysitter but to me it's one of the most honorable jobs that there is. My Nanny was a C.N.A. for as long as I can remember.I remember she always worked 3 P.M. to 11 P.M., though I will never know why she stayed on this shift. Every day she was scheduled to work, we would have lunch and then Nanny would get in the bath tub, her white uniforms were washed and so white that it would blind you. She polished her white nursing shoes, made sure her teeth and breath were just right and she would head into work. At times that I was visiting her, she would sometimes take me with her.
When I wake up at 4 A.M. and start to get ready for my day, I make sure I get a shower, I brush my teeth and use mouth wash, fix my hair, put on make-up and my scrubs that don't have a single wrinkle in them, lace up my shoes and head down the highway to work. I am thankful that my Nanny instilled this in my mind many years ago.
Yesterday made day 6 in a row of work. It was hard for me to get out of bed, it was hard for me to wake up, it was hard for me to get dressed and to make it to the gas station for a Monster, which I shouldn't drink and I don't really like but that's how tired I was. I pulled into work, took a deep breath and headed inside hoping that the day would come with very little challenges and go by quickly. I was here to help these people and so I would do it at my own pace, quickly.
It's funny how you think you are helping someone else and really they are helping you so much more. Since I work in the medical field, I cannot tell you why people are in my facility nor can I tell your their names but I am going to tell you about a few of my residents who blessed me on a day that I just knew was going to be terrible. It started with Ms. A who was so happy that I was there it made my heart flutter. See, to some people, working there is just a paycheck or a job but I take it really serious because it's my calling from God. I'm glad that she anticipates the days that I am working.
Next came Ms. B, Ms. B greeted me with a big, toothy grin which in turn made me shoot her back a big toothy grin. Remember, when I woke up, I had already decided that I was going to have a bad day. Ms. C instilled more of her wisdom on raising kids and how to survive the teenage years, something I value since she survived having more children than me and managed to stay sane. Next came Mr. D who was having a terrible day himself. It was really a simple fix and before I left for the day he loaned me a Joyce Meyer CD to listen to in the car. This CD prompted me to apologize to Joseph for emotionally manipulating him or at least trying to.
Lastly came Ms. E. Ms. E's spouse comes to visit her every single day at the exact same time every single day. Most days he stays in her room reading to her, talking to her, taking her outside so her skin can absorb the Vitamin D and he never misses a single day. It made me really think about love and getting older. Joseph is almost 18 years older than I am which means that he is already in the beginning stages of aging. I personally have no issue with this at all but it raises some real questions about what I would do if and it also prompted me to think what if we were Mr. & Ms. E?
I have no doubt in my mind that Joseph would come every single day and take care of me just like Mr. E does for Ms. E. I also have no doubt in my mind that I would do the same for him. It just goes to show that we are not as mighty as we think we are. God will use people we least expect to bless us in big ways.

WASHINGTON - You've heard of bacon festivals. Maybe you've tried bacon deodorant.
There's the bacon doughnut sandwich. And a bacon sundae.
Ford wrapped a car in bacon. So why not a bacon bowl?
According to MarketWatch, Allstar Products Group launched the "Perfect Bacon Bowl" through infomercials late last year.
Since then, the comany has sold more than two million of the $10.99 bacon cookers. The kitchen gadget turns strips of bacon into an edible shell, perfect for macaroni and cheese, pastrami or a salad, according to MarketWatch.
According to the makers, the gadget can also be used to make bread bowls and more.

New York City, United States
STNTN is a neckwear line created by husband and wife, Stanton and Rubi Jones. STNTN's debut collection is inspired by ties worn in the late 19th and early 20th centuries that we found while browsing the New York Public Library's photo archives. Every piece is crafted in New York City from US-made organic fabrics and named for the year that the inspiration photo was taken.
Worn as an alternative to traditional neckwear, STNTN ties can be dressed up or down to create a subtle statement of individuality.Read less

Patent Ductus Arteriosus Stent
- Category:
It is estimated that over 3,000 babies are born each year in the United States with cyanotic heart disease; a significant fraction of whom can benefit from temporary placement of a Patent Ductus Arteriosus Stent (PDA) described here. In patients born with cyanotic congenital heart disease, it is essential to temporarily maintain a patent (i.e. open) ductus arteriosus, a shunt connecting the pulmonary artery to the aortic artery, which normally closes shortly after birth. After the patient reaches a certain size, the stent is removed and the heart is permanently repaired via surgery. There is currently no commercially available pediatric PDA stent. Currently, doctors rely on invasive surgical techniques or adult coronary stents to keep the ductus open. Vanderbilt researchers have created a low-cost, removable PDA stent for pediatric patients.
This Removable Patent Ductus Arteriosus Stent has the following specific advantages over the current designs:
1. Interventional rather than surgical solution
2. Potential for use of smaller catheter and concomitant reduction of trauma
3. Improved flexibility due to single filament design|
4. Designed to reduce tissue damage during retraction
The stent described here provides a safer, non-surgical way to temporarily treat certain cyanotic congenital heart diseases in infants. The stent can be removed in conjunction with conventional surgical repair of the heart vessels, once the infant has reach a more ideal size and weight.
A U.S. non-provisional patent application (13/097,939) has been filed.
