392A: Tps:EnvironCrisisNarratv
Genre: Advanced Topics: Environmental Crisis Narratives
This course explores the nexus of apocalyptic belief, literary imagination, and contemporary environmental crisis. In a selection of fables, memoirs, scientific nonfiction, and speculative fiction, we will survey the cultural origins, formal elements, and variations of what has emerged as the dominant narrative of the human future. In the broadest sense, this narrative describes anthropogenic disequilibrium in the planetary ecosystem. Although secular in its vision, the story of environmental crisis draws its rhetorical and emotional force from millennialist tradition, synthesizing eschatology with modern science. Projections of deforestation, resource depletion, pollution, the loss of biodiversity, climate change and consequent social and political upheavals function as apocalyptic myth, orienting the present "anthropocene" moment to the totality of history, and drawing past transgressions into concord with future retribution and renewal. The course does not seek to debunk narratives of environmental crisis as figments of the imagination but rather to discover the cultural roots of these narratives and to reach a deeper understanding of the historical and literary dimensions of contemporary environmentalism.

392B: Genre:Adv.Tps:Poetics
Genre: Advanced Topics: Poetics
Poetics are theories of poetry that most often come from poets themselves. This course will look at poetic theories of American poets from the early 20th century, a few international poets and modern and contemporary writers. Our discussion will be far ranging, but we'll begin with basic questions: What is a poem? What are poems supposed to do? What is a poem's relationship with language? What is a poem's relationship to form? How has technology and media reshaped this ancient genre of writing which began as an oral, mnemonic form of storytelling? How (or should) a poem reflect politics? How is the poet's circumstance engaged by the poem? How does the imagination work?
Students will write papers about various poetic theories, they will write about the work of individual poets, and finally by the courses end, they will propose their own poetic theories.

WMS: Trends in warehouse management software
Since it's such an established technology, you may be thinking that there's absolutely nothing new going on in the warehouse management systems (WMS) space. Well, you'd be wrong. Although the developments haven't been as dramatic as they were 10 years ago, much progress has been made to enhance operations and reduce cost of ownership—and more warehouse/DC managers are beginning to make the move to upgrade.
"The WMS market is going through a metamorphosis," says Steve Simmerman, director of business development for Next View Software (714-881-5105). "Users have systems that are eight-plus years old and too expensive to maintain and upgrade, too difficult to configure, and have outdated functionality. The solutions have matured, and that's why we're seeing more replacements."
While the changes have been more evolutionary than revolutionary, they range from enhanced functionality and better integration with other supply chain systems to new modes of delivery and use. Here's a deeper look at the top five trends that are the driving the evolution of WMS.

This was absolutely amazing! I made it to take to a potluck at a friend's, and it was hands down the best thing at a dinner FULL of amazing food. The *only* change I made was to use citrus and orange gingersnaps for the crust instead of vanilla wafers (I MUCH prefer ginger over vanilla with citrus), and I only used 2 cups of crumbs because three was WAY too much for my 9" tart pan (if I opted to do this in a springform and double the filling, I'd definitely go with 3 cups of crumbs). The tart was sooooooo cool and refreshing and light! In fact, this was so nice, I think I'll be making my own whipped topping from now on, and blending that with sweetened cream cheese instead of the supermarket stuff (I went with it this time for convenience, but it's just not very good and I think it detracts from the tart). I know it will up the calories, but honestly this is so light it's worth the addition for such a delightful treat. :^)

Steel in the News
Back to all posts
Posted by Tasha Weiss on June 14, 2012 at 8:17 PM.
The current U.S. transportation bill, "Safe, Accountable, Flexible, Efficient Transportation Equity Act: A Legacy for Users," (SAFETEA-LU) has been extended nine times and is almost 1,000 days overdue. Signed into law in 2005, SAFETEA-LU guarantees funding for highways, highway safety, and public transportation totaling $244 billion, and represents the largest surface transportation investment in U.S. history.
While staff and leadership for the nearly 50-member House and Senate Transportation Reauthorization Conference Committee work towards an agreement on reauthorization legislation, the National Steel Bridge Alliance (NSBA) says there are major public concerns about the potential results of the conference process.
The steel bridge group says that among transportation reauthorization conferees are several newly elected freshman officials, many of whom have not had much experience dealing with transportation-related issues. Ultimately, partisan politics may be slowing the process down, and it is critical that the conference committee moves forward with a full transportation reauthorization bill.
NSBA strongly encourages the structural steel industry and the public to get involved and let your elected officials know how critical transportation funding is to your company, employees and families.
To take action, simply send a pre-written letter to your delegate, urging them to pass a bi-partisan transportation reauthorization bill that is currently set to expire on June 30, 2012. Act now by visiting www.aisc.org/action.

Senator John McCain (R-Ariz.) recently lambasted legislation that may prevent the White House from transferring the lethal drone program from the CIA to the Defense Department. The provision is in a classified part of the bill, so the public may never know what it says.
This culture of secrecy underscores the reality that real drone reform is on the verge of conclusively failing to launch. Despite months of political fury and negative press, the drone program and its worst impulse — to kill without accountability for who is killed and why — are poised to become a permanent part of the way the United States conducts counterterrorism.
If there is to be any real reform on drone strikes, it must come this year — while the revelations over National Security Agency surveillance are keeping heat on the White House. Secrecy is the common denominator of the criticism the White House faces on both issues. President Barack Obama's rhetoric on transparency and reform will always trigger cynicism so long as his administration's practices of official secrecy continue.
In May 2013, the White House responded to criticism about secrecy — including a filibuster by Senator Rand Paul (R-Ky.) — by releasing a "fact sheet" on its "policy standards" for drone strikes. It detailed the administration's aspirations for a contained drone program. But the document does nothing to allay concerns that when push comes to shove, the United States will bend the legal rules: using elastic and unconventional legal definitions to permit expansive and potentially unlawful killings.
It has been a year since a leaked Justice Department memo on the killing of U.S. citizens sparked a political firestorm. The public reaction to that was as fierce as the fury over NSA surveillance is now. Yet the drone reform scorecard remains dismal. Most members of Congress have never seen the government memos describing the legal justifications for killings. We do not know how many memos exist and which issues they cover. Relatively few Congress members have even seen the memos that specifically authorize the killing of U.S. citizens.

Van Gogh Museum
The Van Gogh Museum is one of Amsterdam's must-sees. Opened in 1973 to house the collection of Vincent's younger brother Theo, it consists of about 200 paintings and 500 drawings by Vincent and his friends and contemporaries, such as Gauguin, Monet, Toulouse-Lautrec and Bernard. Vincent van Gogh was born in 1853 and had a short but astonishingly productive life.

Its not surprising that the U.S. Navy should be at the cutting edge of new energy alternatives, said Secretary of the Navy Ray Mabus, speaking at the annual MIT Energy Conference on March 5. Innovation in energy is something the Navy has led on for over 150 years, he said, starting with pioneering the switch from sail to coal for powering its ships in the mid-19th century, then the switch from ...

Diomedes Sebastianus
From EastKingdomWiki
Vert (Azure), on a mullet of twelve points argent, a roundel engrailed Vert (Azure), all within a bordure engrailed Or [as an augmentation: in Canton, vert, an imperial eagle argent]
|Awards & Offices
- Most commonly known as D.Sebastian, "D" is known for contributions from his web design (including the SCA Demo .com), and his desire to present an authentic appearance on the field.
- Passions include: heavy-list fighting, word-smithing for scrolls and speeches, court and field heralding, rapier combat, writing and singing songs, making art for the covers of local newsletters, creating garb and projects of all types, assisting others meet their goals, and of course making websites.
Initially and sometimes still a 4th Century Roman; D.Sebastian can be found in the trappings of a 6th Cent Late Roman (Byzantine), 13th Cent Trebizonian-Byzantine, 14th Cent Bohemian, a Herodotus (5th Cent BC) Scythian, and 16th Cent Landsknecht.
6th Cent Late Roman (Byzantine)
(Short) A Byzantine Roman of the 6th Century serving the court of Constantinople. A "Cataphract" (or heavily armoured horseman), he is presently attached to the Army of Syria on its way to Egypt to reclaim Alexandria as part of Rome.
His turn-on's include red wine, walks along the Bosphorus, and cavalry charges that crush the enemy's flanks. His turn-offs include schisms and the plague.
(Long) Diomedes of Sebastia (known to his companions as D. Sebastian) shifted in his saddle, looked past the helmeted Strategos and his mighty glaive, and scanned the horizon beyond. The enemy's cavalry was rallying, soon they would charge. That meant only one thing...
The Byzantine Strategos turned and smiled a genuinely gleeful grin at his Tagama Army. With that grin, all, including D. Sebastian, understood that they would soon meet the enemy in a counter-charge. D. Sebastian's officer leaned over quietly and smiling, issued a single order: "Don't get dead".
He joined the rest of the grinning bucellarii with his own smile. "Don't get dead" he mused, "words to live by."
Diomedes is the sixth son from an arranged marriage between Thracian and Anatolian merchant families, who were then sent to set up a trading post in the City of Sebastia. As there were plenty of sons to run the local business, D was raised for another purpose that would help grow the families burgeoning Trade Empire.
At a young age, he found himself attending private schools and being tutored in the arts of courtesy. When the time came, Dio was sent to Constantinople to live with the family of his Uncle Cyrus. In Byzantium, D's days consisted of getting to know the city and understanding its body politic. When he was deemed ready, it was arranged for him to join the army and be stationed near the Palace. It was at this time that his role in the family business was made clear. Diomedes was to infiltrate the aristocratic circles and find favor with the bureaucrats and mid level dignitaries. His role was to rub elbows and make deals with any who could in any way add profit to the family and its many dealings.
Diomedes used his station well and often found himself in the company of people of worth and invited to parties in prominent areas of the City. Coached daily by his Uncle, he was making the right connections and finding his feet as a lobbyist. Friends in high places also arranged for him to perform the duties as a guard to the Court. But like all business dealings there are rivalries, and Diomedes actions and growing popularity was not going unnoticed. One such rivalry to the family had sway with certain Potentates in the City, as D discovered when his name appeared on orders to report as a part of a replacement company bound for Syria and to place itself under the Command of Belisarius. It was not a secret that Belasarius was moving to make war in the West.

-- Robert Preidt
FRIDAY, Oct. 29 (HealthDay News) -- Lack of knowledge and fear
are common among parents of children with the drug-resistant staph
bacteria called MRSA (methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus),
says a new study.
Health care staff need to do a better job of educating parents
while addressing their concerns and easing their fears, said the
researchers at the Johns Hopkins Children Center in Baltimore.
The study authors conducted interviews with 100 parents and
other caregivers of children hospitalized with new or established
MRSA. Some of the children were symptom-free carriers who were
hospitalized for other reasons, while others had active MRSA
The researchers found that 18 of the parents/caregivers had
never heard of MRSA.
Twenty-nine of the parents/caregivers said they didn't know
their child had MRSA. Nine of those cases involved children with
newly diagnosed MRSA, which means that 20 of the children had been
diagnosed with MRSA during past hospitalizations, yet their
parents/caregivers said they didn't know about it. They said they
were frustrated and confused about this delayed awareness.
Of the 71 parents/caregivers who knew of their child's MRSA
diagnosis, 63 (89 percent) had concerns; 55 (77 percent) worried
about subsequent MRSA infections; 36 (50 percent) worried about
their child spreading MRSA to others; and 11 (16 percent) believed
their child's MRSA diagnosis would cause them to be shunned by
friends and classmates.
Children with MRSA don't pose a serious health risk to people
outside of the hospital. Restricting their play time with other
children isn't necessary and doing so could cause psychological
damage, the researchers noted.
"What these results really tell us is not how little parents know about drug-resistant infections, but how much more we, the health care providers, should be doing to help them understand it," senior investigator Dr. Aaron Milstone, a pediatric infectious disease specialist, said in a Hopkins news release.
The study findings were released online Oct. 21 in advance of
publication in an upcoming print issue of the
Journal of Pediatrics.

The Bookmarks Awards 2012 Announces Its Largest Judging Panel

No comments
For The pressure is on for the Bookmarks 2012 judges to name SA's digital award winners of the year, rewarding the very best of media and content living in creative harmony. This year the Bookmarks committee were inundated with nominations of an impressively high caliber to serve on the judging panel. Breaking all previous counts, we have 39 judges in total for Bookmarks 2012!
These industry experts in their selected fields will ensure we meet our focus of ensuring each category is judged according to its merit as they look at measurable performance versus set objectives. There will be no shortage of opinions on what 'influence' actually means in the digital industry.
For the 3 year Jack Kruger, Digital Lead at Sanlam group takes the reigns as Bookmarks Jury President, ensuring the whole process runs smoothly and fairly. Jack will be supported by three Jury Chairs, he says, "As a further step to ensuring the quality and fairness of the Bookmarks judging process, we have elected to appoint three jury chairs – each responsible for the judging of respective areas of specialisation within the competition."
The selected Local jury chairs are:
- Bridget Pringle – iafrica.com

International Judges
Says Nikki Cockcroft, Bookmarks Chair, "The selection of our international judges is always a key focus and this year the Bookmarks committee decided to invite one of the first judges at the inaugural Bookmarks Awards in 2008 back to reassess the digital market. Dick Buschman from the award winning agency Achtung! in Amsterdam charmed and inspired all with his enthusiastic presentation on the industry and is sure to not disappoint this time around. We all look forward to hearing what he has to say about the caliber of entries and work from SA compared to that of 5 years ago."
Sean O'Hara, BBC Advertising Sales head has been elected as international publisher judge. "BBC.COM was one of the key event sponsors in 2008, supporting our vision to start a local award for the digital industry and we are excited to have one of their key staff members on board. We look forward to Sean's input on the judging panel and to hearing his views on the local industry." Says Cockcroft.

From the committee, "A huge thanks to the local legends of the industry giving up their time to raise the caliber of the judging panel for 2012".

I have been like many developers following the progress of mono. Mono is the open source implementation of Microsoft's proprietary .NET Framework. There has been a lot of buzz on a recent development name Monotouch. Monotouch gives you the developer the ability to program in C# for the iOS platform.
The iOS platform consists of 3 products currently – iPhone, iPOD Touch and the iPAD. All 3 products have been commercially great successes. So I decided to develop on this platform. I have been a c# developer since the beta of the .NET Framework. I still somewhere have the cds Microsoft sent out.
So once I made up my mind – I bought the latest Mac Mini. The system was the 599 USD version with Lion and Xcode 4. I then followed the directions setting up my machine. In hind sight I wish I did the set up slightly different. The current version of Monotouch does not , I repeat, does not work well with Xcode 4. But if you are like me you would want xcode 4 as well. In fact I got a number of errors. Partial list of examples below.
The solution was to roughly- ( see below for the exact steps)
- Install Xcode 3.2.6 to /Applications/Developer.
- Copy the developer folder to Developer3.
- install Xcode 4 to /Applications/Developer.
So what I did ultimately and it seems to work
- Install Mono
- Install MonoDevelop
- Install Xcode 4
- Install Monotouch
- Copy Developer Folder (containing Xcode 4) to Developer4
- Install XCode 3.2.6 (please follow these directions from daniele! So Click that link!)
- Install Monotouch (yet again)
- Copy Developer Folder (containing Xcode 3) to Developer3
- Copy Developer4 Folder (containing Xcode4) to Developer
- Now In order to use IB (interface Builder) I used the excellent advice from Geoff Norton

Two men who deputies say tried to rob a Marion County Internet café were both shot by one of the patrons.
It happened just before 10:00 p.m. Friday at the Palms Internet Café located at 8444 SW State Road 200.
When Marion County deputies arrived they found patrons outside the business who told them that two men in masks - one armed with a baseball bat and the other with a handgun - barged into the business. The robbers told the approximately 30 patrons to get on the floor, and they demanded money.
Investigators say Samuel Williams, one of the customers, pulled out his own handgun and shot the robbers. Both robbers began running toward the front door, and the patron fired several more shots as they fled.
The two men got into a car parked nearby and fled.
Not long afterward, deputies got a call about two men at a Marion Oaks residence who were telling people there that they had been shot while at Scott Carrigan Baseball Park on Southeast 17th Street in Ocala. Police officers went to the field but found no evidence of a shooting there.
The two men, later identified as Davis G. Dawkins, 19, and Duwayne Henderson, 19, were transported - one by helicopter - to Shands at the University of Florida in Gainesville.
Dawkins had a superficial wound in his left arm, but Henderson was shot in two places: his left buttock and his right hip.
Neither of the men have a criminal record, authorities said
Both men were arrested for attempted robbery with a firearm.

Friends and family are reeling following the shooting death of 23-year-old Cherish Pincombe on Tuesday.
Police said Pincombe was shot in the head by Colin Lowrey, who said he didn't realize his Remington .45 was loaded.
Pincombe was a manager at Bogart's Bone Appetit, a dog bakery in Las Vegas, for more than a year. The owners were told of Pincombe's death by her parents on Tuesday. That same day, they broke the news to her co-workers.
"She just told me that Cherish was dead and that she was no longer with us, and I was in shock. I thought she was joking, and I was like this isn't a funny joke," employee Alex Rivera said.
Rivera described Pincombe as an amazing co-worker.
"She was so caring. She was kind. She was always helpful. She always wanted to do something to help you out. She was very generous," she said.
Rivera moved to Las Vegas from Texas about four months ago. She said the first person to make her feel at home was Pincombe.
"She took me out to dinner a couple of times. I've met her parents. I've met her animals," she said.
News of the deadly shooting even hit the bakery's customers hard.
"She was one of those people who brought a lot of life here. It's just so devastating," owner Harold Vosko said. "We just feel horrible for her family. We know how bad we feel. We can't imagine how bad they feel."
Lowrey told police he believes Pincombe loaded his gun while he was in the bathroom Tuesday morning and asked him to point it at her head. He claimed he forgot to make sure it wasn't loaded before pulling the trigger.
"I don't believe what he says at all. There was no way she would have taken her own life. She seemed so happy," Rivera said.
"We have to get through this. Cherish wouldn't want us to close, you know, to stop living. She would want us to go on," Vosko said.
Pincombe's family was too upset to speak on camera, but said she lived every day to the fullest and will be greatly missed.
Pincombe's father said he hopes to see Lowrey prosecuted to the fullest.
Lowrey was charged with open murder. The district attorney will determine if he will be charged with murder or manslaughter.

IMPORTANT: Lil Bub Wants YOU To Vote!
If you live in the good old US of A, you only have a few more hours to get out to the polls and rock the vote (with Mariah Carey, Snoop Lion and Questlove). Well, if you're still undecided, perhaps this will sway you one way or the other: The Internet's most adorable/hipstery cat, Lil Bub, has a message for YOU.
Earlier this week, President Barack Obama sought to get Ohio residents out and voting by circulating the following cat meme:
Well, it seems the Prez has gone and bit himself in the "a" to the double "s" this time, as the most famous cat on the Web, Lil Bub, seems to be hinting that her allegiances run Obama-ward. Read her official statement below:
Hi it's me, BUB! November 6, 2012 is a big day for the USA. As a tiny amazing cat I'm not allowed to vote, but I encourage all of you to go out tomorrow and cast your ballot. If you love me you'll do it. Love me. Do it.
I've been asked a lot about which dude I "endorse" as the leader of your country. Since I am just a cat, and not even from your planet, I have mostly refrained from speaking up. But today I realized that I am a woman cat, and as a woman I feel I have a responsibility to encourage my friends to vote for that one guy who actually seems to care about women and our choices. This is not an endorsement; it's an attempt to make sure the wrong guy doesn't win.
As an underdog and a woman, I encourage anyone who roots for the underdog, anyone who cares about women's choices, and anyone who cares about the future of this entire planet to get off their butts and use their opposable thumbs to vote for the person who has been outspoken about supporting our views and helping us keep the rights we deserve.
I hope that I, BUB, at the very least can convince those of you who weren't planning on it to go out and vote. If anything, do it for me. It would be the best gift ever!
Also, I should take this opportunity to point out that writing in "Lil Bub" on your ballot is seriously the WORST IDEA EVER. No one will ever know how clever it was that you did it, and it's a wasted vote. And yes, people have seriously been talking about this. If you love me, please don't do this. Thank you.

Arizona House panel OKs ban on spam text messages
PHOENIX -- An Arizona House committee has passed a bill that would ban unsolicited spamlike text messages that seek to get a person to buy goods or services.
The bill sponsored by Rep. Eddie Farnsworth is aimed at companies that inundate multiple phone numbers with texts. Many of those are for adult services and Stevens himself said he recently got an unsolicited text along those lines.
Technology committee chairman Rep. David Stevens of Sierra Vista said he recently got an unsolicited text along those lines. Stevens describes the ban as a form of the `do not call' list for regular phones. A violation would be a misdemeanor.
A lobbyist for cellphone carrier T-Mobile testified Thursday against the bill, saying it doesn't contain an exemption for companies who can show someone signed up for texts. He also said a federal ban comes into play later this year.

A veteran Chicago Police officer was killed in a motorcycle crash Sunday evening in the southwest suburbs.
The 44-year-old sergeant -- identified by the Cook County Medical Examiner's office as Jean-Pierre Borja -- was merging onto northbound La Grange Road from Archer Avenue near Willow Springs about 6:50 p.m. Sunday, a suburban police source said.
As he merged, the 21-year veteran suffered an apparent heart attack, Chicago Police said. He was able to move out of traffic and slow down his motorcycle before laying the bike on its side to avoid injuring others. Borja was taken to Advocate Christ Medical Center in Oak Lawn, where he died at 7:50 p.m. Sunday, according to the medical examiner's office.
An autopsy Monday found Borja, of the 5300 block of South Newland Avenue, died of multiple injuries from the motorcycle crash and ruled his death an accident, according to the medical examiner's office.

Income earned from self-employment includes business and professional income.
Costs directly related to business and professional income are deductible, e.g. all professional expenses, such as costs for material and goods, wages and social security expenses for employees, patent and licence fees, commercially justified write-downs, and all other expenses due to the business as well as adequate interest that would be paid on the own capital employed in the business in the amount of the nominal income. Certain personal deductions, e.g. for a child, for education of children, medical expenses, are allowed.
Income from self-employment is subject to social security contributions to old age, survivors' and disability insurance, the family compensation fund as well as administration costs. The rate of the contributions is 11.6704 % of the gross income. A health insurance is mandatory for all residents. Furthermore, each self-employed person has to pay contributions to accident insurance and the occupational old age scheme.
Taxable income of a person subject to unlimited tax liability is subject to tax at a progressive rate (8-bracket schedule). The marginal rates, including the municipal surcharge, range from 3.5 % (for income exceeding the tax free allowance) to 28 %.
The schedules and tax free allowances differ for single taxpayers, single parents and jointly assessed married couples.
In case of limited tax liability, the tax rate is 4 %, including the municipal surcharge (simplified assessment), unless there is a regular assessment (see below). In a regular assessment the same tax rate applies as for taxpayers subject to unlimited tax liability.
Taxpayers subject to unlimited tax liability receive a tax return form and are requested to file it usually by the middle of April of the calendar year following the respective tax year. The wealth and income of husband and wife are aggregated for tax purposes. However, married couples may, upon joint application, be assessed separately. Taxpayers subject to limited tax liability have to get the tax return forms from the Fiscal Authority.
Taxpayers subject to limited tax liability also receive a tax return. For income of CHF 150,000 or less the taxpayer can choose between simplified and regular assessment. For income exceeding CHF 150,000 taxpayers have to file tax returns and are regularly assessed.
In the assessment, the Fiscal Authority specifies the tax assessment basis, the tax rate and the amount of tax due. The balance is payable within 30 days from receipt of the assessment. If the taxpayer leaves the country, the tax must be paid at the latest on the date of relocation.
If you disagree with your tax assessment, you can file a written appeal to the Fiscal Authority within 30 days from receipt of the assessment. If you disagree with the objection decision of the Fiscal Authority you may subsequently appeal to the National Tax Commission within 30 days of service of the objection decision. A decision of the National Tax Commission can be appealed to the Administrative Court within 30 days of service.

The Food Groups According to Kids
Posted by Andy, under INSTRUCTIONAL DIAGRAMS
[ click the images to enlarge ]
Children look at food and nutrition differently than adults do. Sometimes they don't even look at it, they just breath it in without even chewing. Some are picky and have roulette wheels for appetites. But whatever the case, the food groups look different in the eyes of a kid.
For starters, the idea that 5-6 categories can encompass ALL foods is kind of dumb. The food groups are kind of like a "See Jane Run" simplification of nutrition. But since dumb is commonly a passing grade in this world, let's just go with it.
Not all of these categories and examples will apply to every child's preference and opinions. For example, some kids might consider M&Ms more properly placed in the Portable category rather than Chocolate. Some may not like peanut M&Ms, considering them "healthy." And some may not like chocolate at all, in which case, check for a battery slot, your child may not be real.
You can't eat Facebook…
We've tried. Not good. Kinda chewy, too. Let's just use it for social interaction, okay?
Instructional Diagrams are good enough to eat!
You'll really wish you could eat these… except for the ones about poop. Eh, maybe even then.

"Some are picky and have roulette wheels for appetites."
Omg YES. I'm at my wit's end on that one. I think the last real meal my son has eaten was 3 waffles at Nana's 3 days ago.
As for M&Ms, my son loves chocolate, but those fall in the inedible group to him. I guess they look to much like the little rocks he played with when little and doesn't think they're actually food (and chocolate to boot…)
ARG!!! Our youngest son is healthy and growing fast but seems to only eat bread and raisins. Maybe his stomach is transforming these basic foods nutritionally into three-course meals? (sigh)
Elise says:
Sorta like Willy Wonka's chewing gum. Minus the whole "You're turning violet, Violet!" part (hopefully).
My nephew pretty much only likes gummies, veggie packs (at least those are healthy), grilled cheese sandwiches, and marshmallows.
Where's Willy when you need him? Our littlest is still living on bread and fluids, some kind of prison diet. But he's rarely ill and taller than the average toddler, so we're not too concerned.
Monica says:
This has got to be the best Food Guide Pyramid according to Kids EVER! You always manage to outdo yourselves and this one is clever and true. I would like to hope I can teach my son better habits than this but I know my son will probably follow this food guide pyramid whether I want him to or not. This diagram should be a refrigerator magnet to show off to guests when they come over. Please keep up the great work!
Thanks! "Best" is high praise! Illustrating all the goofy little food icons was worth best status!
Yeah, it's pretty much unavoidable, what your kid will go by. But you're making an investment for the future, so keep at it!
Rachel says:
Yes, this should definitely be a magnet that goes on the fridge! "Maybe his stomach is transforming these basic foods nutritionally into three-course meals?" LOL Andy!
It's nice to know I'm not the only one with this problem. Some people make you feel like you are a terrible parent to not have a perfect eater. I don't believe them–but I can't help but feel that maybe, just maybe, I am doing something wrong For now, I will hand over a vitamin and consider us good!
Jeff says:
Great stuff, but you left ranch dressing out of the condiment group!
Ha ha! I couldn't fit it all in! My lists were so long, alas.. such is life.
Elizabeth says:
OH MY LORDY LUV!! This is the best Food Guide Pyramid EVER!! I totally agree with Monica: we should make this a fridge magnet!!
YAY!!! I LOVE YOU! Thanks for not growling at me when I crawled into bed and woke you up at 4! Ha ha!
MotherDuck says:
Ugh! So freakin' genius! It's like you are in my mind and seeing what I have to deal with. I have to hide veggies in the rice and mashed potatoes. Strangely they will drink the "Green Machine" juice. Go figure.
YES!!! Lucas drinks superfood in the morning like a Buick drinks gas, but if he even sees the color green on his plate… bad news for business!
P.S. I am inside your mind. Sorry about that. I'll try not to make a mess.
MotherDuck says:
I knew it! No wonder I keep thinking about whether or not Luke Skywalker would wear orange converse if he had the choice. Make yourself comfortable. It's plenty messy as it is.
You just inspired an idea and search for me! UGH! They're selling for $700!!! on eBay!
Lori @ I Can Grow People says:
Andy and Charlie, how do you manage to produce such awesomeness all the time? Your diagrams are my favorite part of your site! Keep up the good work! I'll keep trying to keep my three year old from eating yellow mustard by the spoonful…
Ha ha! Thanks! They're really hard to make sometimes, so it makes me smile to hear they're your favorite.
Heidi says:
My 2year old would like to add a pet food group. She likes to skoop some kibble fresh from our dogs food package (child proof lock my ass…) and watch Mickey Mouse Clubhouse with her snacks.
Ha ha ha ha ha! Oh toooooodles!
Christina says:
Scooby Snacks!
Ugh! So brilliant!!!
Alexis says:
I think there should be a goldfish food group as that would validate the volume of goldfish that my children consume. They are both portable, yummy, and probably the only source of iron (yes they're fortified) that they get.
Looks like you've got a well balanced diet all in one packet! (In your kids' minds at least) Ha ha!
Chris @ CleverFather says:
What about the neglected food groups such as the whipped group, and the congealed group?
Dr. Nick would not be impressed!
Ha ha! I think Whipped might settle into Yummy and Congealed into the "I Will NOT Eat This" group. We'll call them subgroups. Would Cheez Whiz go in Whipped or Congealed though?
stacey says:
Vania says:
I am so dreading that this will happen soon.. My daughter is 8 months old and so far she loves broccoli but hates potatoes! I hope this clueless stage will last as long as it can. I am planning on learning how to make cute Japanese style bento to make veggies look more attractive.
It can be pretty stressing. But it all come out okay in the end.
Lorena says:
Dude.T-shirt. Stat!
You guys are geniuses. Tell me something: do you wake up in the middle of the night laughing uncontrollably as these come to you?
Ha ha! One needs to sleep in the first place in order to wake up. Soooo… you're close. Yeah though, I shamefully admit I get a kick out of my own stuff. I think I'm not supposed to. But I balance it out with horrible self-doubt on some posts too.
Thanks oodles!
KJ says:
Are you sure this is just for kids? With the exception of the "gross" and "inedible" food groups, it looks suspiciously like what my husband would eat if I let him.
Too true! I even wouldn't put it passed some adults I know not to occasionally indulge in Gross and Inedible.
Melissa says:
I'm glad boogers were included, as it seems that is the only somewhat-nutritious my almost-2 year old has eaten this weekend. I blame the potty-training bribery.
LOL! Boogers could have almost been their own category.
Carla says:
I wouldn't eat soup my parents made if it had an eyeball in it either!
So far, my 2 year old will eat bread and cheese and a few other things, but not together. If we have pizza, he'll only eat the cheese, if I make him a sandwich, he takes it apart and eats the insides separately. Hot dog? No bun. Everything has to be separate or he wont eat it!
Yeah, me neither on the soup. Ha ha! I'm glad you noticed that one. I was wondering if anyone would. LOL to your food dismantler! They do make it interesting don't they?
Gina says:
This is hilarious! And I know a few kiddos who can totally relate to many of these food groups. Thankfully we are beyond the portable food group stage but mine would live in the chocolate group if allowed.
Barbara Saunders says:
Chocolate? In my experience the chocolate obsession is an adult woman thing, not a kid thing. Candy (including some chocolate), yes; chocolate per se, not so much.
Gale says:
I have one of those strange kids that is not crazy about chocolate (evidenced by the fact that he would not eat a bite of the chocholate pudding I put his medicine in, only ate half his chocholate cake for his birthday and my other kids birthday, but faceplanted into the white cream cheese frosting of the carrot cake I gave him earlier this week (forget this fork stuff mommy…its slowing me down!).
Anyways, hilarious stuff there! And captures the general kid eating habits pretty well.
LB says:
Did you consult my husband when making this because it appears to be his food pyramid too?
Sandy says:
I could maybe convince my kid to try the eyeball soup. But, the cyst covered uterus with engorged fallopian tubes on the plate might be a stretch…
Ha ha ha ha ha ha! Breakfast of champions. Just tell them it's what Pikachu eats.
Jen says:
You forgot the "white food group" — white food with a side of ketchup.
John says:
My oldest decided last week his lunch was yucky so he not only tossed it in the trash he tossed the tupperware it was packed in. Wife got home and asked him where the green box was…he said it was yucky and i put it in the garbage.
Antoinette says:
Ummmmmm, banana?
Ha ha! YEEEEEEEESSSSS!!! I didn't add a banana for scale but it's there in spirit.
Elizabeth says:
I have decided I want to make this into a t-shirt. Agreed?
Agreed! I cannot argue with those gorgeous lips. Unless "argue" is a euphemism, in which case, let's have a HUGE arguement. Wink wink!
Matteo says:
My son is currently surviving on sausage and biscuits, chips and an occasional serving of cereal. Glad to see I'm not the only one on this boat.
How did you get him to eat sausage? My 3.5to son is going to transform into a loaf of bread any day now.
Barbara says:
You forgot chapstick and sunscreen in the inedible group!
Laura says:
Indible: dental floss, that was a fun one to find in the diaper… kids.
Gotta admit, I'm sorry I never experienced that one. Ha ha!
Jeannie says:
This is hilarious! Mine really will eat veggies, as long as you don't say he likes them. "Brock, do you want some corn on the cob? " … "no,i don't like it"… "you loved it last week! "
Ughhh! ! ! . And he insists that his sandwich be crust free, then proceeds to eat the meat and cheese only. (that's 10 seconds of my life I'll never get back, every single time I make a sandwich). Oddly enough he'll even eat salad. Kids are weird. Lol
Ha ha! The only thing predictable about kids is randomness. Also? I did a post about crust that might also make you laugh: http://www.howtobeadad.com/2013/16334/crust-childs-natural-enemy

Okay, crime stuff again. I'm not finding this whole cop-killer storyline very interesting or compelling, so let's just cut to the chase. Will and Daghlian question Mrs. Milner and get her to confess to problems in their marriage, affairs on both sides, and the fact that she was involved with his partner.
Daghlian and Crowley come out to the desk of Eddie, Milner's partner, and demand his gun. He gives them a bit of lip, but Daghlian rips a strip off him and Crowley gets his gun out of the drawer. Eddie looks over at Will, who's just standing at his office door, staring. He backs into his office and closes the door.
Kevin wheels out into the garage to smoke a cigarette, but gets distracted by the sight of Joan's boat. He grabs the plans and wheels over to the boat, putting the cigarette behind his ear. He looks at the boat, and the plans, and laughs to himself.
Will comes home to an empty house.
Out in the garage, Kevin's ripping the metal edging off the boat. Hey, um...that's not yours. Neither was the scrapbook. Dude has boundary issues, yo. Will wanders out into the garage and sees Kevin there. There's just awkward silence. Kevin resumes his destruction of the vessel, and Will finally asks what he's doing. Kevin, annoyed: "What made Joan think this could float?" Will looks at the plans, and then looks the boat over. He agrees, "Yeah, that's just..." Kevin: "Not right." They start talking about what has to be redone and how it should be done, studying the plans and debating. The camera drifts over to the window, where Helen walks into view, peering through the window. Joan's there too, and the music is "World Inside the World" by Rhett Miller. Joan smiles a little and says, "Cool." And it's maybe a bit too sweet, a bit too neat, but it's also kinda cool.
