I have been loving on ruffle neck & cinched waist dresses. I made this one from clearance fabric (I believe it was chiffon) and I made it without a pattern. The skirt and bodice were separate pieces- I gathered the skirt to be about the same size as the bodice, sewed them together, and then sewed elastic thread a few times near the seam to cinch it.

Water Technology Innovation
"Technology innovation can accelerate progress toward our goals of clean and safe water. EPA and many stakeholders will strive to support technology innovation to solve water resource problems … cheaper, faster and using less energy!"
Nancy Stoner, Acting Assistant Administrator for EPA's Office of Water
You will need Adobe Reader to view some of the files on this page. See EPA's About PDF page to learn more.
EPA recognizes the importance of technology innovation to improving and protecting water resources, and continues to evaluate how best to foster technology innovation. Technology innovation is defined as the development and deployment of new technologies and processes: new applications of existing technology; production change; and organizational, management and cultural changes that can improve the condition and sustainability of our water resources.
Water Technology Blueprint
Our freshwater resources are limited and face mounting pressures from drought, flooding, pollution, population growth, an aging water infrastructure and competition for many uses (e.g. ecosystem protection, drinking water, agriculture, energy production, recreation). Technology innovation can help address our water challenges and help put us on a more sustainable path while also supporting economic growth. EPA aims to be a catalyst to promote and support technology innovation to restore, protect and ensure the sustainability of our water resources.
The Business Case for Technology Innovation for Water
Clean and safe water is essential for public health and healthy ecosystems, for the nation's economic well-being, and for the welfare of our families and communities. Many aspects of the U.S. economy depend on large supplies of water. Hundreds of billions of gallons of water are needed each day to sustain our industry, agriculture, homes and businesses. Further, billions of dollars are spent each year on water-related recreation activities as well as for use of water in production operations. In 2012 total revenue for the domestic U.S. water and wastewater industry was $139 billion. The value of the global water market—for the control and cleanup of water—is estimated at $500 billion per year.
Market Opportunities for Technology Innovation
Our water resource and sustainability issues represent market opportunities for technology and institutional innovation and to promote economic growth. Descriptions of the most pressing needs and promising opportunities are outlined on page 4 of the Water Technology Innovation Blueprint - Version 2.
Potential Funding Opportunities to Support Technology Innovation
There are a number of potential funding and other resources available to assist in the research and development of innovative solutions to water-resource-oriented issues and challenges. Examples can be found on page 13 of the Water Technology Innovation Blueprint - Version 2.
Tools to Assess Water Supply Risk and Vulnerability
A variety of tools has been developed for use by companies, utilities, planners and others to assess current and future water risks. With a greater understanding of the risks, these players then often seek technical or institutional innovation. Some examples of tools that address either water availability and/or water quality risks can be found on page 3 of the Water Technology Innovation Blueprint - Version 2.
Actions to Promote Technology Innovation
Our water resource and sustainability issues present significant market opportunities for new technology, new thinking, and enhanced economic growth. EPA will be a positive contributor with utilities, industry, investors and entrepreneurs to support technology innovation for clean and safe water. Page 11 of the Water Technology Innovation Blueprint - Version 2 describes EPA's several action areas for water technology innovation that include:
- Advocating for technology innovation
- Communicating technology innovation actions and successes
- Creating the regulatory space to foster technology innovation
- Speeding the assessment and delivery of proven technologies
- Facilitating financing and funding opportunities
- Partnering and leveraging action with others
- Supporting research, development, and demonstration projects

Awesome...My husband wife was kind enough to send over some flank steak she made. Although it was good, it needed some doctoring up. So I mixed the marinade and set it in the fridge and then refried it a little, mainly to heat up and get the sauce smooth. It was absolutely fantastic wrapped up in a flatbread. We will definately make this again and share this recipe. Thanks Paula, we will always support you, ALWAYS!

Hungarian Grand Prix 2014/15
The 11th race of the F1 season sees the top drivers in the world do battle in Hungary. The Hungaroring has been challenging teams and drivers since it became the setting of the first race held behind the Iron Curtain in 1986. Since then the track has hosted 28 World Championship races, with both Michael Schumacher and Lewis Hamilton holding the record of most wins, with four each. The Englishman will be looking to make it a hat-trick of consecutive triumphs, having taken the chequered flag in the last two years.
The original idea in the 80s was for the race to be held on a temporary road circuit in Budapest, but organisers took the decision to build a completely new circuit in a valley 12 miles outside the city. This is the ideal setting for F1 fans who can enjoy the thrilling race during the day before experiencing everything this enticing city has to offer. With a capacity of 120,000 and with 80% of the circuit visible from any vantage point, it's a fantastic place to watch F1.
This tight twisting, track will see drivers do battle over the course of 70 laps and has often been the setting for some extremely close contests, particularly in 1990 when Thierry Boutsen beat Ayrton Senna to the line by 0.3 seconds. The twisting nature of the track makes it similar to a street circuit and places it as the second slowest of the season behind Monaco. The biggest difficulty for the drivers however isn't necessarily the corners; it's the dusty nature of the track. Due to the fact it doesn't get much use during the year, it often appears green at the beginning of the weekend. Once the cars get going a clean racing line emerges, but outside this line a lot of dust and dirt accumulates making overtaking particularly difficult due to the lack of grip. Qualifying position and a good pit-stop strategy can often be vital. .
Thomas Cook Sport invites you to experience all the Hungaroring has to offer, with our F1 weekend packages, including –

THIS looks UH-MAAAAZING!!!!!!!~~~~I just moved andwe have a sort of a walk in pantry, but my mom and I just have soo much stuff that it's impossible to do anything with it, haha This is quite inspiring to be super neat and creative, especially for when I'm married next yr.! teeheee
happyorhungry.com says
I love this idea you creative cat! I am so jealous of your pantry space also, I only have two cupboards for my pantry and it is not nearly big enough! One day when I have a proper grown-up pantry I am totally doing this!
alittlepetite says
YOU are a life saver!! my mom has been bugging me about finding pantry organization and tips haha i will be sure to show her this!
Wow. I just found something to do with all my kombucha bottles. Great post!!!
Emily says
Jealous doesn't even BEGIN to cover how I feel after reading this post. Your pantry is gorgeous! I'm an organization freak and I label everything- I literally have OCD.
Using your old Kombucha bottles for storage is brilliant! Now I have an excuse to keep indulging. (:
Everything in my apartment is pretty organized, but I'm planning to RE-organize my pantry after seeing yours!
Katie says
Awesome!! It's so simple but it looks great!! I love the stickers!
Your pantry looks awesome! I love stickers too, I use them all the time and not just for my kids.
Christine (The Raw Project) says
Love the pantry, I have a similar style corner one! Love the organization, very classy! I have to overhaul mine every few months because it gets trashed. I've been lucky that hubby did the last one.
Laura @ Sprint 2 the Table says
Kombucha bottles as jars is ridiculous brilliant. I'm going to dig mine out of the recycling right now…
Lindsay @ Delighted Momma says
WOW now you are my hero!! Can I pay you to come do mine? Its a complete disaster zone lol!
michele says
ohmygoodness, my heart is racing. awesome organization!
come visit anytime–and hope you will enter my shabby chic giveaway:
tryingfood says
I love those containers!! I wish I had a pantry to organise I'll have to settle for organising my bedroom, hmm…
Girl, you so brilliant. Is a for alphabet soup? So stinkin' cute. Oh, and $4 for 2 servings, pshh cheaper than 1 glass of wine at a bar. There, justified.
Jill @ Vegan in the Kitchen says
I love everything about this post…recycling the kombucha bottles, stickers even the little "Pin it" button discreetly inserted into the post. You are too clever, girl!
I would love to try this in my pantry, but with 3 little ones would need to store the bottles in something so they wouldn't hit the tile floor and explode. Ideas? I'm also stoked to give the label maker we bought for our school room another job. I love and would def use the stickers, but the OCD part of me would have to put a complete label at least on the bottom of the bottle.
Anonymous says
I have the same dilemna with glass containers / tiled pantry floor & klutzy DH. :-O
Have a ton of diff. sized coffee creamer bottles in a craft bin in the garage, two diff. sizes. Some are clear (Bailey's), most are white (Coffeemate, etc.). But willing to give this a whirl with labels, they'd look awesome. Now if the creamers just came in SQUARE bottles, it would make it much easier to stack! ~Sunny
Lauren says
I use glass containers but you took this to a whole new level (of course). I'm jealous but then I also though of getting the rice and cornmeal into the somewhat narrow bottles and my head hurt. Did you use a funnel? And yes, I will always ask the questions that make me sound like a moron. I use canning jars but don't have enough so I also have yucky boxes and it makes me crazy. I'm inspired. Project pantry this weekend and project kids desks and project closet….
Meaghan says
I have an idea- ill move into your pantry, and bring lots of pumpkin bread! Love the pantry, Type A'ers unite!
Nicole@TheKidlessKronicles says
LOVE the org ideas for the cabinets and pantry. Unfortunately I am hooked on the uber-expensive POP containers. And I reuse them in different ways. So I am wondering if labeling is a good idea. But I have TONS of stickers from my scrapbooking days.
And I pinned your idea's!
Andi @ Jane of all crafts says
haha i always forget the comment box is at the top and scroll all the way down…anyway…genius friend!! I have yet to try this tea you speak of…kinda intimidated by it, is there a beginner flavor I should start with?
Kelli @ RTSM says
I think I am in love! This looks so great and I love the stickers you used! I need to start saving my glass pasta jars for stuff like this:)
forgottenbeast says
Wow! Want to come organize my cabinets for me? I could definitely use some over-organization. Genius to use "free" glass bottles, I've got to find a drink/food I really like that also comes in a good reusable container!
Corrina says
What a great idea!!! Now to drink all those beverages for to get that amount of containers lol!! I am not lucky enough to have a pantry, I just have an extra cupboard but I will make it work.
I love the recycled bottles, you smartypants!
..shoot. now I need to start buying kombucha?
Nuha says
oh la la! i am lovin this!!
Rachael says
this is quite possibly the most ingenious idea ever. i love it!
You are awesome. End of story!!

Puffins <3
And this is such a great idea! I love when everything has its own place. Those stickers are very chic looking too!
Vanessa says
Can you please come over and over-organize my pantry?? I'm totally inspired…my pantry needs serious help!
Sylvia @ Frolic Through Life says
I LOVE this! I don't have a pantry as big as yours, so it leads to even more messes. I dream of one day owning my own house and being able to organize it. But for now, I'll just look at yours and dream!
Stephanie says
Very cute! I love this! I love it when functional meets pretty. ie. you.
Katy says
I think I'm going to do this idea, with slightly different materials. I've been trying to figure out the details since I was at your house, haha! Looks great, Jenn.
lovemesomeoats says
That is such a clever use of the left over Kombucha bottles! They look super cute too!
Sara @ Nourish and Flourish says
Jenn, you know what?
I love you!!
And right now I particularly love your domestic goddessness. The pantry is GORGE. And using kombucha bottles to store staples is a fantastic idea…Those labels are so darn chic! Even though I don't have a pantry, you've inspired me to clean out my kitchen cupboards this weekend. And sip a kombucha while doing it. Because it's been way too long since I've had a fix. xoxoxo
charonamission.com says
What a grrreat, great idea!! I especially love the 'spice it up' ahhh – can't wait til the hubs and I have a place to settle down into =)
sevimel says
I love your blog–especially the graphic of peas and crayons–so creative! Thanks for the great ideas for my pantry! I love using glass jars to organize and store but never thought of recycling tea and other jars! The labels make it super cute and I'm totally inspired to revamp my cabinets now! Thanks!
Kate says
Fantastic use of space! Love the labels.
Mom in High Heels says
That is fantastic. What a great idea to reuse the bottles! $4 AND you get the tea? They're practically free aren't they?
Ugh, my whole house needs a makeover. We're moving next month though, so I think I'll hold off.
Stopped by from Amanda's.
I'm doing a week of giveaways on my blog. Stop over and enter.
Casa Corpo e Cia: O jeito mulherzinha de ser. says
Wow! I love!
Awww…..I love your organisation skills! The labels look cute! Great work sweetie! my cupboards are kinda messy right now and you've totally inspired me to sort them out!
TriGirl says
Great, great, great idea!! My husband becomes obsessed every once in a while with storage boxes, like they're going out of production and we need to buy up as many as possible. We have roll out trays in our cabinets and pantry that we (he) easily installed on our (his) own They're awesome.
p.s. when i looked at that first picture i thought the alphabet pasta was rice, so i was very confused about it being labeled with an 'a'.
Rachael from KitchenCourses.com says
Great post and tips for keeping an organized pantry!
Hayley @ Oat Couture says
LOVE this! I'm a complete mess when it comes to organization normally but I do love my food to be organized!
Kristina @ Life as kristina says
Hey love muffin i'm uber impressed by this organization. Could you please come over and organize my new kitchen? and closet? and bdrm? and office? and etc etc etc? LOVE the use of GT bottles, I've been using them to store popcorn…just a little bit ghetto since I'm to lazy to peel off the labels, haha. Love ya, xoxo!
feltsocute says
LOVE it. I'm semi-obsessed with organization. You did an awesome job.
You might be the smartest person on the planet! My husband drinks the kombucha teas almost daily and we've always just recycled the glass container. I'll be keeping them now! Thanks!
Errign says
Great idea. I've been recycling pb, pasta sauce and salsa jars for bulk item storage but I'll definitely keep the next Kombucha bottles that pass through too!
Ryan Louise says
I just started reading your blog. Now a fan! Found you off the GT's fb page. This is a really cute idea for the bottles. I just wanted to tell you that I felt the exact same way about Gt's booch. Justifiable splurge, right? I then looked into brewing my own. I was intimidated at first and didn't know if it would be something I could do. However, I love to cook & try new recipes (http://ryansfoodadventures.blogspot.com/) and so I figured I'd give it a shot. All it takes is a bottle of Gt's original (to start the scooby) a gallon glass jar (You can buy a pickle jar and eat them/give the pickles away) some organic black tea and sugar. That's it. There are TONS of websites that give you step by step directions on how to brew. If you don't have a scooby/mother to start off with and you are "growing one from scratch" hence the Gt's original (has to be original-no flavors) it will take a little longer than normal but once you have a scooby to work with-brewing time can take 5-7 days and you will have a GALLON of delicious, fizzy, healthy kombucha of your own. I've been doing this for about 2 months now and consider myself a pro. I was soooo freaked at first but it's SO EASY. I just wanted to let you know. If you have any questions; send me a shout on my (tiny and not updated often) blog! You seem very crafty and I think it's something you could handle. I love spreading the home brewed booch love now, heheh…Well, G/l & awesome blog.
Kelley @ TheGrantLife.com says
(found ya on a linky party)
love this! I love how you used scrapbook letters. It came out very streamlined thanks for sharing!
Wow you are really really organized. I need to now go to my pantry and clean it out and label everything. Thanks for sharing!
Lillian says
OMFG, this is freaking fantastic! I love combining artsy, DIY stuff with a good organization-fest (which, believe me, I partake in often – but usually sans artsy fun things). Your pantry looks awesome!
Jamillah says
i LOVE it!!! uhhhhhg you make me feel so bad about my situation. damn lady!
Chris says
Hi there, what a wonderful job you did with your pantry. If I had one I would want to organize it, that's how inspiring it was. Good job. I found and am now following you through Show And Tell Friday, and will visit often. Please stop by my blog and perhaps you would like to follow me also. Have a wonderful day. Hugs, Chris
Wow! That is the most organized pantry I've EVER seen! Love it. I think I'm going to use these tips when I move down to FL.
Kacey says
So glad you found me on foodbuzz! I LOVE this pantry. I'm a bit of an organization nut myself, and I'm currently tackling ideas using my smaller cabinet space without spending a ton of money! Thanks!
Rachel @ My Naturally Frugal Family says
Seriously I will let you drink all the kombucha you want it you can make my pantry look that awesome and organized.

You have completely inspired me! I use those plastic storage bins in every room in the house but, for some reason, never thought about my pantry floor! Thanks for sharing. I'll be doing this project myself very soon.
Yayyyy! So happy to help! This morning I was just noticing how my pantry has stayed clean this ENTIRE TIME when I never keep anything clean and tidy for more than a week! The containers do their job oh-so-well! <3 Thanks Kimberly!

Where do you put the boxes of leftover stuff once you've filled the jars? Presumably one whole package doesnt go into each bottle?!
Hey Sharon! I have enough bottles to pour all the contents in to them until the boxes are empty.. and then I simply recycle the boxes [though a few I have managed to reuse for other things - love doing that!]

My entire house is in need of organizing! I have 2 boys and a husband who think it's a challenge to un-organize everything after I've organized it and I don't have the energy to keep re-organizing it. Our bedroom, bathroom & kitchen need organization in the worst way….
I LOVE how you organized your pantry. So beautiful!!
Thanks Tracy!!!! I still have toooons of organizing to do too — it's so amazing when it's done though right? =)

Mom Admits Stuffing 3-Year-Old Son's Body Into Trash Bound for the Dump (VIDEO)
Sunday at 5:00 p.m. a desperate-sounding mother called 911 to report that her 3-year-old son had vanished from a Cleveland playground. The next day, police found the boy's body at a waste treatment plant -- and that mother was arrested.
It all happened quickly. Police and the FBI set about searching for the boy immediately. While searching the family's neighborhood, someone noticed a garbage truck leaving the home and thought the worst. They tracked down the truck and discovered the body of a boy matching the description of little Emilliano Terry. It was some fast, smart detective work. Did the news offer welcome closure for Emilliano's mother, Camilia? Or is she worried because she knows something?
It doesn't look like Camilia has been charged with anything yet, but police say her stories were inconsistent. And worse, when she failed a polygraph test, she admitted that she was the one who disposed of her son's body in the garbage bag.
It seems almost cruel to arrest a mother who, one day earlier, was sobbing with panic to 911 operators. If she's telling the truth and was the one to dispose of her son's body, that still doesn't necessarily mean she was the one who killed her son. But it does look likely that she knows what happened -- and she needs to come clean soon if someone else was involved.
Police may be saving two other lives by arresting Camilia. She has two other children who have been placed with family services. If Camilia had been responsible for her son's death, there's a chance she could be a danger to her other two children. Whatever really happened, separating Camilia from her family sounds like the wisest move at the moment.
Do you think the boy's mother killed him, or do you think she was covering up for someone else?

brandiNovember 28, 2012 at 11:24 AMI live in the city this happenedand the mother was charged the child was beaten to death. She made a sing on you tube about someone close to her getting murdered just days before. She also posted on Facebook she wanted to give the boy up for adoption. She was involved with child services and cameras show she did not even have the boy with her at the park to begin with!!! She also did not have him when she went to the store before the park. Fox 8 news Cleveland has the whole story. This woman is guilty!
- This is really sad. How can people have these children and then harm them? I thought as parents we are suppose to protect them! It really breaks my heart to sit and think what this little boy went through before he was killed.

Eight Nebraska Wesleyan University students were honored during the 2009-2010 academic year with national prestigious scholarships.
Four students won Fulbright Scholarships, the flagship international education program sponsored by the U.S. government. This year's Fulbright Scholarship winners are:
Alex Bednar: A history and biology major from Grand Island, Neb., who will teach high school English in the Czech Republic. He will also research the development of Czech culture since the country's Velvet Revolution in 1989.
Nicole Spry: An English and philosophy major from Lincoln, Neb. who will teach English at a university in Vietnam. While there, she will also study cultural traditions.
Meera Bhardwaj: An English major from Becker, Minn., who will teach English and study women's organizations in Cameroon, a central African nation.
Kyle Karthauser: A 2008 graduate of NWU will teach English in Germany.

Infant Abduction Prevention, Part 1
What hospital security administrators need to know to prevent abductions at their hospitals
In less than a year, two different women, posing as nurses, have snatched newborns from their mothers in Lubbock, Texas. One of the kidnappings occurred in the home; the other infant was taken from a local hospital. An infant abduction is truly a tragic and traumatic event for the hospital and absolutely devastating for parents and family members. The media circus that follows is beyond description. Hospital administrators and staff are overwhelmed by an onslaught of local, state, and national media. The hospital staff never fully recovers and may even choose other careers.
Join Jeff Aldridge, CPP, and Bryan Koontz, director of safety and security for High Point Regional Health System, for our free webinar: Securing America's Hospitals, on Aug. 8, 2007 at 1 p.m. Register today.
Because of the limited information available to the public, it is very unlikely that most new mothers or mothers-to-be would be even remotely aware of how easy it is for an abductor to enter a hospital room for the purpose of kidnapping a baby. Tragically, history has taught us that the kidnapper has very few barriers to gaining access into the maternity ward or the mother's room. In the largest percentage of these cases, the abductor uses a ruse or con as a means to take the child from the unsuspecting mother, or untrained staff member by impersonating another care-giver, usually a nurse. Once in the mother's room, the abductor continues to be very manipulative and will try to convince the mother to hand over her baby. After successfully leaving the mother's room with the infant, the kidnapper has no trouble leaving the hospital undetected. The whole process can occur in less than five minutes!
Reports of infant abductions go back for many years. Early reports were sporadic and much of the information obtained was anecdotal and of little use to law enforcement. The FBI has documented infant abduction cases as far back as 1950. Then, during the early 1980s, reporting methods improved as did the hospital's willingness to report abductions. Both of which may have contributed to the increased number of reported infant abductions during this decade. Cumulatively over the past 24 years, 248 infant abductions have been documented by the FBI (Federal Bureau of Investigations) and the NCMEC (National Center for Missing & Exploited Children). Close to 50 percent of these infants were taken from hospitals. Unfortunately, there is no Federal Regulation requiring law enforcement or hospitals to report infant abductions to a central clearing-house to ensure accuracy. Thus, it is quite conceivable that infant abductions may be under reported. To the casual observer, the number of infant abductions may not appear to be significant when compared to the 4.2 million babies born in this country each year. However, these numbers are serious and significant to the victim baby, parents of the infant, and to the facility where the crime occurred.

Land Lock
In "Jaynestown", the town boss has the "port authority" activate a "land lock" on Serenity. For starters, the idea of a "port authority" in this circumstance seems a bit questionable, but that isn't my biggest issue here. The place where Serenity lands doesn't appear to be anything I would call a space port, just an open field somewhere near the mud bogs. The "land lock" does not appear to be anything external to the ship, analogous to a wheel lock for cars. Even if it was, I'm having trouble imagining something external that would be able to hold the ship in place. All evidence indicates to me that it is something in the ship's electronics, activated by a signal from the "port authority". I see two major problems with this:
Simon's Importance as a Bounty
In "Ariel," Simon's dialogue with the police chief reveals that he is very definitely wanted alive. In his first (shirtless) conversation with Early, he is clearly specified as wanted "dead or." And then at the end ... he just dumps Simon. While Sean Maher isn't that short, Simon is generally force-perspectived as a tiny little guy whose combat reflexes in series are ... well, Simon tries hard. And this is Early, the guy who took out Mal. Early could have disabled Simon and tossed him over his shoulder with little trouble. And River has not been seen to do any bargaining — i.e., there's no, "I'll be your bounty, just leave my brother on Serenity." When exactly did Simon cease to have value to the Alliance? He's a certified genius, the shooting script for "Safe" suggests that the Tams were more deeply in on the Academy project than he realized, and he would be a very effective tool against a recalcitrant student (River) for the Academy. He either successfully found and paid someone to break into or actually broke into a secure Alliance facility and just knows too damn much. Not to mention that he would have given Jubal a.) additional bounty and b.) a very effective victim/tool for the mental/emotional/sexual torture that he is clearly shown to revel in. So why on earth does Simon's importance as a target steadily decline throughout the series?
Garbage collector droid programming in "Trash"
The plan for the heist is to dump the loot into the trash container, which the automatic droid routinely carries to the incinerator, and then reprogramm the droid so that it instead delivers it to the desert. They do it by hacking some circuit boards (navigational, perhaps)...in the container itself. Huh. Why would the designers put the navigational boards in the container? It's not a mailing service - the droid normally delivers all the containers to the same destination, and even if there are several incinerators, certainly the droid can be directed to the specific one from an external control station. The way it is, they had to increase the cost of the containers and provide some kind of interface between the droid and the container, and for what? There doesn't even seem to be any way to programm the delivery from inside the house, which would make at least some sense, so what's the point?
Corpses on the derelict ship in "Bushwhackled"
When the crew is removing the corpses, they cover their faces with masks, because the bodies must be stinking pretty badly. Makes sense. However, in that case how could they not feel the stench the moment they entered the chamber where all the corpses hang? They spent some time looking around the room before Mal looks up and sees the bodies.
Tracey's plan in "The Message"
So Tracey had his organs removed and replaced with lab grown ones so he could smuggle the lab organs for his employer. He then turns on his original employer and agrees to deliver the lab organs to a new buyer for more money. However, Tracey's original employer still has his original organs. Even if the plan hadn't gone south on him, how was he supposed to get his organs back?
Shepherd Book's past
Harpoon Penetrating Bridge Windows
This is inspired by the answer to the "guns in space" complaint, namely that a hull rated to take a micrometeorite at .33 c won't even blink at a mere bullet. There are windows on Serenity. They must be rated for meteorites, too. So...how did the Reaver harpoon penetrate it?

Inspite of all the big names and big ticket (usually tax-payer subsidized) economic development deals that get the press, these young women really do represesent our best hope in revitalizing the local economy and creating opportunity. They had a commitment to healthier eating, a dream and the gumption to take a chance. How can our community encourage, support, train and mentor other folks who have their own dream?

Des Plaines residents may wake up with a new mayor on Tuesday. Des Plaines City Council is scheduled to discuss selection of an acting mayor at its meeting Monday night.
Former Des Plaines Mayor Marty Moylan resigned Dec. 31 ahead of his first term as state representative. Eighth Ward Alderman Michael Charewicz has served as acting mayor since being appointed on Jan. 7.
The motion to appoint an acting mayor must take place during an open, public meeting, Charewicz said, and there are two possible outcomes. Aldermen could make a motion to appoint another alderman to acting mayor, Charewicz said, or, if no motion is made, he would continue as acting mayor.
When asked if he would prefer another alderman serve as acting mayor, or if he would like to continue filling the position, Charewicz said that decision would be left to city council.
"I would be honored to serve," Charewicz said.
Charewicz said the primary function of the acting mayor was to run meetings. During his time as acting mayor, Charewicz oversaw two petition objections as chairman of the three-member Des Plaines Electoral Board. Charewicz said the acting mayor was also responsible for signing a variety of official documents, including items voted on by city council.
Des Plaines City Council members disagreed about how to best-handle filling the vacancy left by Moylan for mayor of Des Plaines, a part-time position, at a previous city council meeting on Jan. 22.
The city council meeting at city hall, 1420 Miner St., begins an hour earlier than usual, at 6 p.m., on Feb. 4, for members to discuss the selection of an acting mayor. Visit the City of Des Plaines website to see the meeting agenda and packet.

Bartoli Blitzes Wozniacki, Top 2 Out
Published August 12, 2010 12:00
CINCINNATI, OH, USA - Caroline Wozniacki, then exactly two hours later Jelena Jankovic. The Top 2 seeds at the Western & Southern Financial Group Women's Open were bundled out of the tournament on Thursday.

(blackout applies to European territories due to rights restrictions)
Wozniacki, the No.2 seed, had lost to Marion Bartoli in the pair's last meeting and this time it was no different, as the No.16-seeded Frenchwoman's two-fisted groundstrokes caught fire from 3-4 in the first set, and she won nine of the next 10 games to complete a 64 61 victory over the No.3-ranked Dane.
"With Caroline, you have to find the right balance between being aggressive and keeping the unforced errors low," said Bartoli, who hit 32 winners. "But she's not just a retriever. She retrieves very well, but she can step inside the baseline and dictate if you're hitting the ball right to her. You're not No.3 for nothing."
Bartoli earned her fifth career win over a Top 3 opponent: "The turning point was Wimbledon, when I beat Jelena and Justine," she said. "It helped me believe in myself. Sometimes, you lose before you go on the court because you're afraid to play against them; if you see my record, all my Top 3 wins came after that."
See 15 of Marion's best career moments in this special gallery!
Shortly afterwards, Jankovic, the No.1 seed and defending champion, was ousted by qualifier Akgul Amanmuradova and her booming serve, 76(3) 64. The two hung tightly to their serve, with only one break in 24 service games - Jankovic lost her serve from having a 40-15 lead at 3-all in the second set.
"My opponent played really well. She served very well," said Jankovic, who withstood 12 aces and no double faults from Amanmuradova. "I thought that was the key to the match, actually. I didn't have much chance when I was returning. Unfortunately I lost today, but it's okay. It's part of the sport."
"I've never beaten anyone in the Top 10. She's No.2 right now and has a lot of titles - she's an incredible player," Amanmuradova said. "My serve is one of my strongest points. Today I served a lot of aces, which helped me save energy. Jelena moves very well and gets to every ball, so if I played rallies on every point, I would have already been tired in the first set."
As if No.1 and No.2 wasn't enough, No.6, No.7 and No.8 also fell. No.6 seed Vera Zvonareva lost six straight games from 4-3 up in the first set and fell to No.11 seed Flavia Pennetta, 64 63; No.7 seed Agnieszka Radwanska lost to No.10 seed Maria Sharapova, 62 63, her fifth straight loss to the former No.1; and No.8 seed Li Na fell to No.12 seed Yanina Wickmayer, 26 62 76(4).
Check out 20 of Maria's most glamorous moments right here!
In another upset, Anastasia Pavlyuchenkova won her eighth match in a row with a 57 64 64 triumph over No.13 seed Shahar Peer. And in the only match between unseeded players, Ana Ivanovic thumped Elena Vesnina, 60 63.
"I had to be tougher than her in the end," Pavlyuchenkova said. "Now I can't believe I got through. During the match I wished it was just a normal day, maybe it would have been a different match. But I'm just happy I was able to make it."
"All this time, I was playing catch-up in some ways with the balance between my tennis and my fitness. Now I feel it's marrying together," Ivanovic said. "In a true career everyone goes through tough moments, and those moments make you stronger. I've learned a lot and I'm managing to handle it better."

Ever since first discovering Nutella in college, it has been a go-to indulgence. I'm sure I'm not alone in this. I can't buy it very often because I will eat it by the spoonful. Over the years it has grown so much in popularity that just today I saw a grocery store brand of chocolate-hazelnut spread. It's not the same, though, no matter how hard they try to convince us. Today happens to be the 7th annual World Nutella Day and to celebrate I thought I would share some recipes I found. I have not tried any of these, but if the photographs are any indication, they all look fantastic.
Nutella Cupcakes with Nutella Buttercream
Nutella-Stuffed Brown Butter and Sea Salt Chocolate Chip Cookies
Tuscan Nutella and Meringue Tart
And, of course, I would be remiss if I did not mention one of my own favorites from my eBook, chill… Peanut Butter Nutella Chip Ice Cream.
Peanut Butter Nutella Chip
2 cups heavy cream
1 cup whole milk
3/4 cup sugar
4 egg yolks
1/2 cup creamy peanut butter
1 cup Nutella
Pour the cream into a large bowl and place a sieve/strainer on top. Whip the egg yolks until creamy and bright yellow and set aside. Mix the milk and sugar in a medium, heavy-bottomed saucepan. Warm the mixture over medium heat until it reaches between 140-150 degrees (60-65 °C), stirring constantly to prevent burning. Gradually pour a small amount of the heated milk into the eggs while whisking. Keep adding small amounts until the eggs have warmed slightly, then pour the egg mixture into the saucepan with the rest of the milk. Cook over low to medium heat until the custard thickens and reaches between 170-175 degrees (76-80 °C) or until the custard forms a film on the back of a wooden spoon. Remove from the heat and add the peanut butter, mixing until well blended. Strain the mixture through the sieve into the heavy cream. Put the bowl into an ice bath to chill quickly (the faster the base chills, the less icy it will be). Once it has cooled, refrigerate for several hours, preferably overnight. Freeze the base according to the manufacturer's instructions on your machine. Add the Nutella to the mix by the spoonful about two minutes before finished freezing. When done put in the freezer for several hours to reach a firm consistency.
