even with those four numbers there are countless possible combinations good luck with figuring out which one is the right one you punk
*straightens calculator*
It's pretty likely that it's a four digit number, and as there are four digits chosen there, that means that there cannot be any repetition. This mean that there are:
n!/(n-4)! possible orders. As 'n' is 4 (number of digits available). 4!/0! which becomes 4x3x2x1/1 which simplifies to 24. That means that there are 24 possible combinations of codes. This would take you about two or three minutes to input all possible codes.
Unless an alarm goes off if you don't get it right in 3 tries
*straightens calculator again*
Kick the fucking door in
well 'technically' the code is most likley 1970. statistically, a majority of people, when told to choose a 4 digit code will choose their birth year. and this key pad is obviously a few years old to put it nicely, thats most likley it.
some sherlock holmes shit just went down over here
No, no, no. Don't base your deductions of psychology. Let's talk chemistry. When you first press a button, there's more of the natural oils on your skin, and therefore it wears down the numbers on the keys faster. Obviously 0 is the first one, then. Try 0791 first.
Sherlock out.
it got better
and this is why the sherlock fandom could either rule the world or end it….
Close, but not quite, I think. People will almost always choose a number they can remember. What's memorable about 0791? Try 0719 - a birthday, 19th of July. That is more likely.
Those deductions are great and all, but unnecessary.
The light is green.
The door is already open.
And that's why we have a John Watson.

Stabilized spoon helps those with Parkinson's and other neurological disorders eat without mess or embarassment
Neurological conditions like Parkinson's disease and essential tremor, a benign trembling of the hands, head, voice, legs or trunk, are heavy burdens in their own right.
But add to that the moments when sufferers try to enjoy a meal with friends or family. The frustration attendant with being unable to keep food on the fork or spoon becomes another consequence of the disorder.
Now a San Francisco startup called Lift Labs is selling a piece of assistive technology that counters hand tremors and lets users have a meal without embarrassment or annoyance. The device, called Liftware, mounts utensils on an active stabilizing platform that diminishes uncontrollable jerking movements.
This month, Lift Labs is matching donations to its Indiegogo crowdfunding campaign to send Liftware to people in economic hardship. The company will send the devices to the International Essential Tremor Foundation for distribution to those in need. Click through to see the campaign video.

Breakthrough software innovation delivers improved clinical capabilities, personalization, lower costs and operational results
CHICAGO – December 3, 2013 – Today at the 2013 Radiological Society of North America (RSNA) annual meeting, GE Healthcare, a unit of General Electric Company (NYSE: GE), unveiled four software breakthroughs to deliver improved clinical capabilities, productivity and diagnostic confidence for clinicians.
Up-to-date, reliable and accurate software is critical to quality care for the patient and usability for the clinician. GE Healthcare recently announced a $2 billion investment in software development that is focused on maximizing asset performance, improving hospital operations management, improving clinical effectiveness and optimizing care across entire populations. And today, GE Healthcare's Xeleris 3.1, DV24.0, VolumeRAD*, Enterprise Imaging Solutions and iCenter further demonstrated this commitment.
Xeleris 3.1 delivers automation and personalization for clinicians
In Nuclear Medicine, one of the greatest challenges clinicians face is access to the advanced and unique applications required to harness the power of Nuclear Medicine examinations. The latest release of GE Healthcare's Xeleris software enables automation, personalization and access to these advanced applications. Nuclear Medicine clinicians will gain access to specific image results where and when they are needed. With its open interface architecture, Xeleris applications can now be launched through an integrated unified desktop from the Universal Viewer, as well as using the generic Application Programming Interface with other PACS vendors, providing radiologists and Nuclear Medicine physicians with tools previously only available on the Xeleris workstation, for enhanced access and productivity.
The Xeleris workstation includes DaTQUANT*, which enables visual evaluation and quantification of 123I Ioflupane images. This application provides tools to analyze dopaminergic neuron terminal binding and differences between multiple scans and may provide adjunct information to physicians assessing patients for Parkinson's disease. It also provides an exclusive AdreView™ planar application for automated heart to mediastinum ratio generation for Iobenguane I-123 images and the Dosimetry Toolkit for a quantitative SPECT and Planar calculation of the Radioisotope Therapy planning value.
"The personalized workflow and unique new clinical applications will give clinicians the information they demand with speed, convenience and flexibility," said Nathan Hermony, general manager for GE Healthcare's Nuclear Medicine business.
DV24.0 Continuum Pak advances clinical capabilities for MRI
GE Healthcare MRI's mission is to deliver the best clinical solutions with great patient experience at the right cost and quality. This year, GE Healthcare MRI is pleased to announce DV24.0, a unique software platform featuring innovative applications like Silent Scan.
"The DV24.0 Continuum Pak upgrade that includes Silent Scan is, in my opinion, the most innovative approach in MRI in the last few years that will make a significant contribution in the chain of diagnosis," said Jean-Marc Pinon, Imaging Manager of MR and CT at CHR Laennec in Creil, France.
DV24.0 Continuum Pak is available on the Optima MR450w, Optima MR450w with GEM, Discovery MR750 and Discovery MR750w with GEM scanners. With DV24.0, productivity improvements of up to 30 percent compared to previous versions are possible with new features such as the eXpress PreScan and Workflow 2.0, driving efficiency by greatly reducing the number of mouse clicks for technologists. DV24.0 also features enhancements to increase diagnostic confidence. By evaluating the top clinical needs and trends, GE MRI has improved 3D imaging through a real-time motion correction technique called PROMO that automatically compensates for head motion.
Additionally, DV24.0, with FOCUS, takes Diffusion Imaging to the next level with the ability to optimize for image quality and signal to noise. FOCUS provides high-resolution, organ-specific Diffusion-Weighted Imaging (DWI) and Diffusion Tensor Imaging (DTI) for a small field of view. MAVRIC SL, a new technique designed for imaging the joints of patients with MR conditional implants, is also featured in DV24.0 and is setting new standards in musculoskeletal radiology.
VolumeRAD* Tomosynthesis offers greater sensitivity in detecting lung nodules
GE Healthcare's VolumeRAD offers improved detection and management of patients with lung nodules compared to conventional radiography for imaging of the chest. As the first thoracic radiographic tomosynthesis product with a specific indication, this advanced application aims to improve the detection of lung nodules and the subsequent management of patients. VolumeRAD is 7.5 times more sensitive than chest X-Ray in detecting lung nodules 4mm – 6 mm in diameter, and patients benefit from low dose by receiving only 1.6 times more radiation than a 2 view (PA and LAT) chest x-ray exam.3
"We are very excited by these results that clearly show the benefit of radiographic tomosynthesis versus conventional X-ray," said Michelle Edler, general manager of RRF for GE's Detection & Guidance Solutions business. "Customers who use this technology will be able to detect more and will benefit from 360 percent greater sensitivity without any reduction in specificity, for lung nodules 3–20mm in diameter. The potential of VolumeRAD as a high-quality, cost effective and low dose imaging alternative for lung nodule detection is massive."
VolumeRAD can also offer an intermediate solution. "Rather than simply getting a CT, we can do a VolumeRAD to verify whether it's a nodule or not," said Dr. Gautham Reddy, professor of Radiology and vice chair for Education and director of Thoracic Imaging in the Department of Radiology at the University of Washington. "[For] something that has low likelihood of being a nodule, VolumeRAD will probably exclude the possibility of a nodule and there won't be as much radiation."
Enterprise Imaging Solutions helps lower IT costs & enhance diagnostic confidence
GE Healthcare is introducing its expanded suite of Enterprise Imaging Solutions to help lower IT costs, improve clinician productivity, expand networks of care and enhance diagnostic confidence. The launch features Centricity 360* solution that connects unaffiliated clinicians and patients through a professional online collaboration tool and gives them secure on demand access to imaging applications. Centricity 360 is the newest addition to GE's PREDICTIVITY* solutions, which harnesses the power of the Industrial Internet to help industrial organizations achieve zero unplanned downtime and peak productivity. GE Healthcare's Enterprise Imaging Solutions also include Centricity PACS with Universal Viewer and Centricity Clinical Archive, recently validated by IHS as the Number One1 global vendor neutral archive (VNA).
"Overall, GE Healthcare's upgraded solution set is in perfect alignment with evolving end-user demands and the various directions taken by imaging providers in the U.S.," announced Frost & Sullivan in a release recognizing GE Healthcare with the 2013 North American Frost & Sullivan Company of the Year Award2. "Combining top-quality service, high performance and technology innovation, GE Healthcare's Centricity imaging solutions have enabled providers to lower costs of ownership while preparing for the challenges of the future."

Q. My bridesmaids are going to be wearing this dress, but in the Sangria color at my wedding. The color looks just like a ripe raspberry in person. I want to let the girls buy/wear their own shoes, but I have NO idea what color to pick! Any suggestions? I thought about a bronze heel, but I'm a bit clueless when it comes to this kind of thing.
-Clueless about Color
A. Pretty dress choice. If you choose an optional bow or ribbon, you can have the bridesmaids wear shoes that match the accessory. Otherwise, a metallic bronze, silver or gold would look lovely. Choose the color, but let them buy a heel that works for them, not everyone can walk in towering heels. Plus, every girl has a different cash flow so while one may find a fab heel from Jimmy Choo another may be happy with a find at Payless.

Quick Breakfasts for Busy Families
5 Golden Rules for Busy Breakfasts continued...
4. Avoid High-Sugar and High-Fat Choices
From toaster pastries to frozen entrees, many breakfast products marketed to busy parents are loaded with sugar or fat -- and sometimes both! Check the food labels carefully before you buy. Look at the grams of fat and grams of sugar per serving. If it's loaded with sugar and fat, it's not really breakfast. It's junk food. You can do better.
Even super-moms buy convenient breakfast products for their families sometimes. Often it's the only way to juggle the morning. So find products you like, keeping these four goals in mind: high fiber, a little protein, low sugar, and low fat. Then buy a boxful and keep them handy at home and at work for those extra busy mornings.
5. Microwave It
On leisurely weekend mornings, have fun making some whole-wheat waffles, blueberry pancakes, muffins, or French toast. Freeze them in plastic bags. Then just pop a serving into the microwave on weekday mornings.

In the event of a man-made or natural disaster, you need your key personnel to be protected. The government have measures in place for their key members of staff so why shouldn't you?
You could either decide to build a bunker or buy / co-habit a local bunker after sourcing on http://bunkernetwork.com.
However you create access to the bunker, make sure it can hold your personnel for at least a few months. So you'll need food, water, disposal system and more.
If you're a large business that needs to keep going in all situations, this is certainly something you should consider.

I say it's a good idea. A cute, good, soul-meltingly good step off of the slippery slope kind of idea.
People downrate posts they don't like. If you have a contradictory opinion from the majority, present it in a good way that fosters discussion, and even they will have to admit, "You make a good point." Bitching about being blacked out just leads to another blacked out post.
I don't really have a real problem with buying the pet, but more about what will be next? The next thing could be an in-game store to buy things and the reason will be to make things easier to buy them. This can lead to the very things I hate about some F2P MMO and I really believe this is Blizzard way of either testing the waters for MT/RMT or slowing putting them in.
This is how I reacted when I first saw this little cub:

unlike reg blizzard store pets, this one only goes to your one character. so if you and your 1500 alts wants one. you'd have to buy 1500 of these bad boys to make you feel good about not neglecting your gnome DK, Sparky who you sometimes feel gets the mini pet shaft.

The Oratory of Ave Maria
This is the front of The Oratory which my son tells me will have several large marble pieces attached in the grey area below the peak. In fact the artist was at work about a block away carving with power tools on large slabs of Italian marble. I kept wondering what kind of glue they use? The front facade should be impressive when finished. We'll see but I think I will still like the rear of the building better.

The inside of The Oratory is an organized tangle of steel that was obviously custom bent to this purpose. The Oratory in Oxford has windows high in the walls which lights the heights of the church and filters down across the pews. Ave Maria's accomplishes the same. It should not be beautiful but it is.

Oratory Reflection
The Oratory is an impressively large building for the very small place that Ave Maria is as it stands. The cathedral lets light in at its peak, and in these mirrored windows at the rear. The front of the building is meant to be impressive, it is but I liked all the structure and shapes that the rear of the building had to offer.

It takes a great ego and vision (money helps too!) to build a town from scratch out in the sticks of Florida.

Wrong Side of Town
In my experience with small towns in Illinois the Catholic Church was always on the poor side of town. This is not the case in Nokomis. Maybe it is the way Route 16 cuts through the place.

I'd been to Catholic services a time or two over the decades, but not with my son and my future daughter-in-law and not in Oxford England. The light was glorious inside as the smoke from the burning incense floated to the ceiling. The odor & smoke was so intense and I was so unused to the experience that I was nearly driven to the door.

i'm sure it was the large tree(s) that kind of heaved the graves and gravestones off level. It made the whole cemetery look as if everyone was kind of pushing up from underground with a slow and ever so slight a hand.

At Peace
The first and only English churchyard I have ever seen. It was decidedly stuffed with gravestones, weeds, and grass. However it was very peaceful there under the trees.

Too much shredded chicken...ideas?
I vastly underestimated the amount of shredded chicken 10 legs/thighs would make (hint- its a lot) and now I have a tupperware full of "mexican" seasoned shredded chicken and im already out of ideas. It's got cumin, chili powder, salt, etc...generally a decently spiced but not hot rub. I've already made about 15 tacos, some enchiladas and a burrito and im burnt out on tortilla derivatives... any other ideas?! I was thinking a chicken tortilla soup, but I've never made that before and I dont know how this pre-seasoned, pre-salted chicken would fare.
Additionally, I'd LOVE suggestions for stuff that can be made and eaten cold- I don't own a microwave and don't have a microwave at work, so anything I can bring for work lunches is ideal (the soup idea might not be great for this.) I regularly have this problem with all of my slow-cooked foods (pulled chicken/pulled pork esp) and often end up just throwing them on a salad but that doesn't seem the best use of this sometimes labor-intensive "ingredient"...
i know you're hesitant to go the salad route, but if you take the time to put together a really special salad, you won't be "wasting" the chicken. i do a grilled vegetable salad that would be perfect for you...
- brush the following with a mixture of olive oil, cumin, smoked paprika and kosher salt: zucchini (halved lengthwise), ears of corn, asparagus, tomatillos (halved), scallions & avocado (halved).
- grill the vegetables until lightly charred but still toothsome. (the avocado should be grilled just for a couple of minutes until you get some color on the surface).
- remove the corn kernels from the cob, and cut all other vegetables into bite-sized pieces.
- assemble a bed of freshly torn romaine, and sprinkle with chopped cilantro, parsley & mint, and chopped cucumber.
- top the lettuce & herb mixture with the grilled vegetables and shredded chicken.
- drizzle with a homemade vinaigrette: red wine vinegar, olive oil, Dijon mustard, roasted garlic, fresh lime juice, ground cumin, smoked paprika, fresh ground pepper, sea salt, & honey (for a kick, add a pinch of cayenne or chipotle powder, or a dash of adobo sauce from canned chipotles).
or you could go the easy route and toss the chicken with chipotle mayo, green onion & cilantro.
re: goodhealthgourmet
oo i like this idea! Incidentally, do you have any idea how long a home-made dressing like that would last? I live alone and like to cook in bulk but rarely make homemade salad dressings even though they're delish. A few days? A week? A month?
re: CarmenR
i usually whip it up fresh for each salad, but you can safely refrigerate homemade dressing for several weeks or longer - the acid helps retard spoilage. store it in a glass jar with a tight seal/good screw-on lid. that will help keep it fresh, and make it easy to shake it up before using it.
re: LA Buckeye Fan
i do a nice chicken salad with mayo, poppy seeds, a dash of honey, reconstituted dried cranberries, celery, and pecans.
re: goodhealthgourmet
damn my bad... next time then ;)
How about a Mexican-flavored chicken pot pie topped with cornbread? Use some roasted corn, bell peppers and onions, make a "gravy" with cream and red enchilada sauce.
Tortilla soup is a good one, and it the chicken is seasoned simply don't seasont he soup at first until you know how the chicken affects the broth. It is one of my favorite comfort foods.
I was going to suggest flautas but then saw you are burnt out on tortillas.
you could add it to frittata or quiche batter, along with a little light sour cream, artichoke hearts, sauteed mushrooms, caramelized onions, garlic, thyme and S &P.
Rick Bayless has an awesome chicken pot pie with roasted tomatillo sauce recipe. It doesn't taste too spicy, and the addition of your pre-cooked and seasoned chicken would likely make it taste even more delicious.
Here's the link to the recipe: http://www.rickbayless.com/recipe/vie...
You can make a Mexican chicken soup without it having to be tortilla soup. Sometimes when I have similar leftover chicken I saute chopped onions, carrots and celery then add chicken stock, a jar of salsa and a can of rinsed hominy (posole). Cook the soup for a while until the vegetables are tender, then add the chicken. Serve it with avacado, sour cream, tortillas, lime, cilantro or whatever suits your tastes. It's a quick soup and quite good. (p.s., you don't really need the extra vegetables, I just like the way it adds to the soup).
re: John E.
That sounds tasty.
re: John E.
I make a similar version of this soup, replacing the hominy with garbanzo beans, served over rice that has been cooked separately. At the last minute you top the soup/rice mixture with lots of chopped avocados, green onions, cilantro and tomatoes. It's like a soup and salad combination in one bowl. When I serve this to guests, I put the toppings in small bowls so they can take what they like. You never know when one of your guests will turn out to be a cilantro-phobe.
The seasonings sound perfect for Curried Fried Rice with Chicken, which I love: http://www.finecooking.com/recipes/cu...
I haven't tried this one, Cool Rice Noodles with Chicken, but it also sounds good: http://www.finecooking.com/recipes/co...

That said, I also have said that I think the filing would be a good thing for the company, as it cannot continue to suffer under the amount of debt that it inherited from the Premier Parks management. The company's got some good management in place, and if it gets some financial relief from bankruptcy, I think Six Flags could be well positioned for the 2011 season and beyond.
This season is what it is already. My only concern is how bankruptcy might affect 2010, but frankly, how the economy goes in the next few months will have more to say about that than a Chap 11 filing will.
Dear Season Pass Holder,
You may have read about how Six Flags, Inc. is restructuring its debt. We want you to know that Six Flags Great America will be here for your family, this summer and for years to come.
Six Flags Great America will be open all season long.
From hot summer concerts to Fright Fest, Six Flags Great America will be open for business, the business of fun. As always, we continue to offer one of the best values in family entertainment, just a car ride away.
Expect great things throughout 2009.
We've introduced Buccaneer Battle, an awesome new water adventure ride. We launched fun new shows like The Best of Dick Clark's Bloopers. We're hiring staff, giving you and your family more dining options, and bringing you top music acts like Jesse McCartney, Raven-Symoné, and Metro Station.
If you would like more information, we invite you to read our RESTRUCTURING FAQ .
Thank you for being a Six Flags Great America Season Pass holder. See you at the park.
Charles H. Salemi

BTW, I have asked SFGA how its looking for the future and they seem to be not sweating at all. I think its a sad day for the entire company, but individual parks vary. I mean SFGA has done a bunch of improvements and paired up with a resort in the area to give their guests exclusive perks.
If this is the way that they have to deal with the upcoming bills, then so be it. It seems that restoration of the Six Flags brand is underway (albeit slowly), and the numbers suggest that the company is indeed capable of building quality amusement attractions and entertaining people while still being profitable. I'm still expecting some great numbers from their parks this year.
My business travels have brought me to Louisville, Ky for a few months. Far be it from me to not stop by and pay the local park a visit. Keep an eye out for an in depth report from Six Flags Kentucky Kingdom...coming soon.

We rolled into Drag Week™ with sirens and PA blaring. In fact, with a potential cavity search having slipped our minds, we rolled nearly everywhere with the sirens and PA in full shriek; if you got video, we can still come up with plausible deniability. Felony aside, the Whambulance rocked. It got an amazing 19 mpg, but the batteries were less impressive, as they died about every 200 miles. Late that first night, the generator ran out of gas and we ended up hijacking power from the back of a building somewhere, then took a long walk in the rain for some Colt 45, which was well worn off by the time the diesel again cranked to life.
You might guess that the dead batteries got tiresome, but you couldn't tell it by observing our refusal to stop replacing battery chargers that got vibrated to death or shorted in the rain (the Schumacher lasted longest; thanks, Don) and buying new batteries. The unreliability offered too much joie de vivre (that's French lingo in two HRMs in a row, because we're just that classy.) How else would we have stayed in dive hotels; met so many Drag Weekers at the side of the road; stopped at Olson Race Cars in New Castle, Indiana; or seen the roosters and race cars at Kopko's Auto Service in Clinton, Pennsylvania? The Whambulance couldn't beat us, and we managed to get editorial coverage of the entire race despite our travails. Sleep was an afterthought, but infamy has its price.
We developed a wary affection for our glorious implement of emergency medical assistance, but after having disgusted DW participants, dragstrip owners, and hapless travelers in five states, our time with the Whammie was drawing to a close. To say adios with a bang, we loaded the E-350 with an NOS nitrous bottle and mainlined the juice straight to the engine's air cleaner to make some passes at National Trail Raceway. There's video floating around the Net showing our best quarter-mile pass of 22.50 seconds with a 2.93-second 60-foot time on the bottle. The nitrous was worth something like 2 seconds and a whole lot of rattling, but the 7.3 V8 could not be killed. Disappointingly, we also could not blow up our little gas generator by force-feeding it N2O, though it wasn't for lack of trying.
Though we envisioned life with the ambulance as a camper or Bonneville push rig, we showed common sense and decided to sell to the highest bidder. The awards ceremony saw a raucous auction as would-be owners frantically ran the other way. Our friend Keith Turk was too loyal to duck and instead drove the Whammie 800 miles home to Alabama, where his wife, Tonya, threatened to phone the cops about an abandoned vehicle if he ever parked it in front of the house.
Alas, dreams of the Whambulance becoming a repeat offender at Drag Week™ were dashed when Tonya got her wish and the E-350 was adopted again in March. It's now back in action as an actual ambulance. If you're ever somewhere in Florida, in cardiac arrest in the back of an E-350 and wondering what that green stuff is on the ceiling, then you're likely in the company of vehicular greatness. But don't worry—if that thing couldn't kill us, then you'll certainly survive.
NOS in an ambulance?
Hey sometimes a good challange is fun! However the drive in the 66 buick sounded like pure Hell ! Keep up the good work Dave & Friends!

Baggu Shopping and Grocery Bags
Green Chic. We're digging the bright colors and compactness of Baggu Bags. Made of rip-stop nylon, each bag can support 25 lbs, but only weigh 2 oz by themselves. They are designed to be versatile — they can be carried by the handle or over-the shoulder...
Baggu bags are 14" wide, 24" tall with a 5" gusset ( so they sit flat when filled). They may be machine washed in cold water (line dried). Currently in nine colors. Available from the Baggu Shop: $8 each or three for $22 or 6 for $38. Each Baggu comes with an envelope-like pouch to store your Baggu.

Not as cute as Envirosax at http://www.envirosax.com !
And more expensive than ChicoBags - http://www.chicobag.com.
I have the Envirosax and like them, but I like these colors, too.
Nice. I like that you can put the bag on your shoulder. But I still prefer http://www.reusablebags.com/store/acme-bags-workhorse-style-1500-p-1.html because the bag that holds the bag is attached so you don't have to worry about losing it.
I LOVE my chico bag. 5x5 is just too big to carry in a small handbag. I agree with the other poster that having the bag attached is key.
I keep an envirosack in my bag at all times and it's fantastic - huge, with great straps that I can sling over my shoulder. Plus it's cute. And it rolls up tiny with little strap/snaps that keep it compacted.
For those of you that have access to Wegmans. They have reusable, durable bags that look very similar for .99 each. They hold about 25 pounds and are structured enough to stand up on their own, which makes then easy to unload. They are black with a white Wegmans logo. I have 5 of them, and that is usually perfect for a weeks worth of groceries for 2 people.
Viva La Wegmans!
I have tried every reusable bag out there, and Baggu bags are the BEST! The Chico bag is wrinkly and ugly & it is impossible to get it back into that pouch. Enviro sax prints are too tacky for me, and the short handles make that bag hard to fill & carry. The Baggus long handles fit over your shoulder so they are SO easy to carry. Baggu bags are just cool. Either way, as long as you are using someone reusable bag, you are ahead of the curve. Also ... 6 for $38 ... thats a sweet deal!
chrisB: I go to Wegman's all the time and I've never seen those bags (prob because I'm too busy drooling over the amazing cheese selection).
Baggu bags are pretty, but I don't know what to do!!! I like plastic bags because they make great trash bags. If I get a Baggu, what will I use for throwing away my garbage???
Here's the Wegman bag: http://www.wegmans.com/ocs/item_detail.asp?ici=209358
The thing I don't like about the Acme reusable bag is that you can't put it over your shoulder. This looks much more user-friendly.
Pierre - simply buy biodegradable garbage bags from places like Seventh Generation to get over your plastic shopping bag/garbage bag itch. Then enjoy the enviro-friendly cloth tote bags to do your shopping with!
The Envirosax handles are *not* too short to carry over your shoulder... that's how I use them every time I go shopping. Perfectly easy to fill and carry. These look fine too...but I like that the Envirosax have no carrying case to lose - you just roll them up and fasten their snap!
chrisB: Those bags are great! I have some from our local Stew Leonard's and also saw that Stop and Shop has them. They hold much more than a paper bag does and I like the fact they have a big square bottom. And the price can't be beat!
Baggus are completely awesome. I bought a set in July very aware of the competition and I couldn't be happier with the timeless look, convenience and durability. They fit over my shoulder too and carry more than plastic saks. HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.
Oh I am so excited about this post! I almost ordered envirosax yesterday, but I just couldn't bring myself to because of the patterns (and the short straps). I am thrilled to have found these, and I just ordered a bunch!
i also agree about having the storage pouch a part of the design itself. but it seems to me that it wouldn't be too hard to pull the pouch inside out and sew it into the inside of the bag. then when you want to store it, fold the bag down to the pouch, tuck it in, and pull the pouch back right side out and voila, fold-down bag-in-a-pouch.
so easy, i'm really bothered that baggu didn't think of it themselves.
Ah, thank you! Like Cat, I was about to break down and order a set of Envirosax even though I hate the patterns. These look much better. Off to place an order...
I have the flora set of Envirosax and I love them and the patterns. Also, I'm totally jealous of anyone who lives near a Wegmans. It's the best grocery EVER! I wish one would come to NYC.
I am loving my EnviroSack--if the patterns are to your liking (i enjoy my green and orange retro print), be advised that the straps are not short like they appear to be on the website. they're definitely shoulder length--and very comfy to carry that way. the bag holds so much too! i'm always amazed by that.
Another great reusable bag is the Onya bag (as in "keep it on ya all the time!") - www.onyabags.co.uk. I bought it in London at the Greenwich Market from the creator John Brousson a few years ago and carry it with me everywhere. Made of light, durable parachute-like material, the bag folds into its own small pouch. The BEST feature, though, is that the pouch turns into a shoulder strap - simply clip the carabiner clip onto the small loop and you can sling it over your shoulder. You can also clip it to your bag or key chain. People have stopped me on the street in NYC to ask where to buy one. I bought a slew of them for friends and family, but need to get a few more for myself since they come in lots of great colors!
here's a way cheaper option. You can buy bags directly from the people that print them for many grocery stores, like Ralph's in Southern Cal. 10 for $15.99. their color options are not as pretty, but very functional: http://www.onebagatatime.com/index.php?page=product&pid=2
i have found greenbags at grocery stores (like Whole Foods) with their own logo printed on them for $1.99. that's cheaper than ecobags.com
Envirosax are GREAT! And the designs are fantastic. I see they have some new designs......I shall be buying some!

No Judgement
In spite of telling myself that I wouldn't feel guilty about writing that last post, I do.
Not because I feel that I betrayed my mother by airing her dirty laundry. I don't. And in this search for my family's stories, I want to be honest about who we were. But I know some people will judge. Some will judge me for making light of a serious situation, but I don't care about that. I admit that I use humor in uncomfortable situations. But, really, I think the story is a funny one.
What does matter is that some people will judge my mother for her parenting skills, and my family for how we lived. And that's not right.
My mother was a loving, hard-working woman, in a new country and trying to learn how to make her way in the world, just like anyone else. Sometimes she was dramatic and did crazy things, but she was a wonderful parent. Yes, she fought fiercely, but she loved us just as intensely. And, regardless of what I may have made fun in the past (and what I will make fun of in the future), I loved her just as much. I didn't realize how much until I lost her.
My brother was a quiet, gentle, deep-thinking person who used alcohol and drugs to self-medicate what was later diagnosed as schizophrenia. We weren't best buds because we were so far apart in age, but we understood each other in our own way and shared a bond.
And then there's Scotty, the patriarch, who I've yet to mention except in passing. (Eventually I will.) He was the most screwed up of us all back then, but even he loved us as much as he was able. And, over the years, I've forgiven him for being such a shitty father — as much as I am able.
Sure, my family had its issues, but what family doesn't? There was a lot of drama when I was younger, but there was a lot of laughter, goofiness and love, too. I don't think we were any better or worse than any other family. Weirder at times, maybe, but not any worse.
In the end, all any of us can do is our best and learn from our mistakes. And I think my mother did that a hell of a lot better than many: The "crazy Jamaican" woman that she was in the 1960s and 70s definitely became a kinder, gentler, more Americanized version of herself in later years. If that isn't adapting to your surroundings, I don't know what is.
So, I urge you: If you decide to go on this journey with me, don't judge the ones that are gone too harshly. I would much rather have this be about telling the true stories than painting a flowery picture of what I sometimes wished growing up had been like.
Don't forget: if you have a story about my family — good, bad or ugly — please share it. Leave a comment below, offer up a submission, or email me directly.

Another day. Another breastfeeding mom turning to the media after being shamed for nursing her child without a cover. But Andrea Zeledon-Mussio's story is putting a whole new spin on what it means to "nurse in public."
The mother of two wasn't breastfeeding in a store or a park when she was hassled by a Long Island cop. She wasn't whipping out a breast in front of strangers.
In fact, this mom was doing what countless breastfeeding mothers do every day -- just so they aren't hassled by prudes.
Zeledon-Mussio was in her own car! Parked in front of the police station in Wading River, New York, the mom of a 12-year-old and a 9-week-old claims she was approached by a cop who told her several times that she needed to cover up. She did -- albeit reluctantly -- but she says she's speaking out now because she wants to make sure other folks know public breastfeeding isn't illegal in New York State.
But here's the thing, she wasn't breastfeeding in public. She was in the privacy of her own car.
We've heard of moms being hassled for nursing in public. But now they can't even nurse in private without being bothered?
It's troubling any time a breastfeeding mother is harassed for doing what it is her body is made to do -- let's just get that out of the way. But it's particularly upsetting when a mom goes and hides out ... and still can't catch a break.
How many times have you been in an online forum about breastfeeding only to see a troll suggesting a mother COULD go hide in a bathroom or in her car to nurse so the rest of the world "doesn't have to see it"? It's antiquated thinking -- it's true -- but even the trolls seem to get that moms need SOMEWHERE to breastfeed.
But then we face the reality that even in your own car, you can be hassled for breastfeeding your hungry child.
More From The Stir: Newsstands Refuse to Carry Magazine With Breastfeeding Mom on Cover (PHOTOS)
Which begs the question -- what is left for mothers? Where, exactly, is society going to let us nurse in peace? At home? Barefoot? With one hand stirring a pot of sauce?
Because that's really the root of this, isn't it? The folks who express horror and shock at a breastfeeding mother will try to tell you it's sexual and oh dearie me, think of the children, but at the end of the day, we all know there's nothing sexual about a small child eating their lunch.
No, the real issue here is that moms -- nursing moms, working moms, moms who walk, talk, and dare to breathe the rarefied air of everyone else -- are still often treated like second-class citizens. We are expected to be seen and not heard, to keep our mommyhood to ourselves ... and God forbid our kids squawk in the grocery store or get hungry and want some lunch while we're out of the house.
The fight for the right to breastfeed in public -- or heck, in private! -- isn't just about a baby's right to eat on demand. It's a fight for moms to be recognized not just as mothers, but as human beings, as people who should be allowed to come out in the light and enjoy a regular, everyday existence ... even with kids in tow. We shouldn't be made to feel like we have to hide out at home lest someone, somewhere, take issue with us or our kids.
So the next time someone hassles you for breastfeeding, might we suggest you remind them it's not only illegal to bother you, but ask if it would be OK for you to ask THEM to stay locked at home all day just so the world isn't inconvenienced by seeing them?
Have you ever been hassled for nursing your baby? Where were you?

QUOTE: So the next time someone hassles you for breastfeeding, might we suggest you remind them it's not only illegal to bother you but ask if it would be OK for you to ask THEM to stay locked at home all day just so the world isn't inconvenienced by seeing them?
That attitude bothers me a little bit. There is nothing illegal in ASKING. In fact, you can even ask them to stay locked up at home all day! Nothing wrong with asking. The illegal part is when you require it, or try to force them (through threat of arresting them, getting them put in jail, etc). I honestly don't mind when someone comes up to me politely and asks me to cover. I won't necessarily comply, it may be a great opportunity to educate them. Asking doesn't bother me. It is when you imply I am doing something wrong or illegal!
Typical police behavior. Frankly, I'm surprised the cop didn't shoot her and the baby for making him unhappy.
Quite honestly I'm profoundly disappointed in the previous comments. Why are we criminalizing or shaming nursing mothers? We are ok with people dressing their toddlers like teenagers but not with nursing mothers? If we all want to pull the modestly card why aren't we making people pull up their pants? I'm far more offended by the butt cracks and underwear I see in public. Grow up people, seriously she wasn't nursing at the table in a 5 star restaurant.

Sure, you could go out and see each and every one of the 10 Oscar nominees for best picture (up from five last year). But seriously, isn't that a tad extreme?
There's a faster, easier, less expensive way to protect yourself against tiresome outbursts ("Oh my God! You haven't seen it?), unsolicited amateur reviews ("It's amazing! You'll love it!") and mind-numbing plot synopses ("So Sandra Bullock wants to help this kid ...").
Chicago Tribune film critic Michael Phillips, knows a thing or two about movies. Which means he's just the guy to offer up an Oscar crib sheet.
"If you seriously want to get into faking your way through cocktail chatter about the fact that there are 10 nominees this year, you should know that it's not the first time they've done more than five," he advises.
"In the first 15 years or so of the Academy Awards, the best picture nominees would range anywhere between five and 12. The last time they gave out more than five was back in 1944, which was the year ' Casablanca' won and after that they cut it back to five to kind of conform with the rest of the categories."
Phillips suggests that you sound a little jaded when you rattle off these stats, and that you don't overreach:
"The trick is, once you've hit the end of your knowledge base, you've got to immediately ask where the bathroom is."
— Nara Schoenberg, Tribune Newspapers
Missed the movie? With Phillips' film-specific one-liners, you'll still have something to say.
For "The Blind Side": Refer to Sandra Bullock (right) as "Sandy," as in: "I don't know, this just feels like Sandy's year for an Oscar."
For "District 9": "If I want to see science fiction about race relations, I'll see 'The Blind Side.'"
For "A Serious Man": I don't know, I guess I prefer my Coen brothers movies with serial killers in them."
For " The Hurt Locker": "I don't go to movies about lockers of pain, thank you very much."
For "An Education": " Carey Mulligan — she's almost too charming!"
For "Avatar": "I'm waiting to see it in 4-D."
For "Precious":"Wow. Mo'Nique!"
For " Inglourious Basterds": "While it lacks the zesty insouciance of the 1978 Italian cheapie of the same name, at least Hitler gets assassinated in this version. Sorry, is that a spoiler?"
For "Up": "I haven't heard so much crying in a theater since … well, actually I saw it on DVD."
For "Up in the Air": I haven't heard so much crying in a theater since ... wait, that was 'Up,' not 'Up in the Air.' 'Up in the Air' (with George Clooney, right) was pretty good, yeah."

What Style is This Bedside Table?
Good Questions
Q: I love the vintage but clean look of this side table and have been unsuccessful in finding something similar. What style is this bedside table and where would I go about finding one? I'd love to look at eBay or something similar but don't even know what search terms to begin to use! Thanks!

Editor: This looks like it has a "Danish Modern" influence to us — but it looks like a newer interpretation than most examples you would find under that description. Searching for "Heywood Wakefield" could also prove to be helpful — who else has suggestions for Anya?

it definitely has the danish modern/mid century modern look to me. the use of natural wood, organic curves, etc speaks to that era.
I know my Grandmother has a set of these, coffee table that swings out into an 'L' as well as a side table - It has been sitting in our garage collecting dust, but they are for sure great solid pieces. Searching: Heywood-Wakefield is a great start. Good luck!
To me, the legs look a bit like craftsman/mission style to me.
Couldn't find an identical table, but you could look at Stickley's website as another starting point
mid-century Holiday Inn?
It looks 80s to me, mostly because of the glass top and the rounded chunkiness of the legs. If it's oak, even more reason to think 80s.
Are there any words or numbers on the underside? Does the bottom part fold up? Is it in two parts? It looks like a mid century modern take on the traditional Morrocan style table that consists on folding legs and a round metal tray (the craftsman style came from that style as far as I know)
There's a good chance that an ebay seller wouldn't know a name for this either so you may have to keep your eyes peeled.
I would take the picture to a modern/vintage furniture dealer and ask
or look up mid century and Danish furniture in a book at the library.
I'd try searching for the Broyhill Brasilia series, since that series specialized in the curved hyperboloid type structure of the legs. It seems like the piece above might have been "inspired" by a Brasilia piece ... nowadays the originals and other reproductions are not too expensive.
