Everyone loves a good flame war, but before you strap on your asbestos undies and dive in, it's usually best to be well informed so you can torch the competition. Follow along as I walk you through accurately painting fire and the object source lighting that really heats up a model.
A Hot Topic. (not the goth store)
Some will argue that fire is the reason we're here today. It's a fundamental component in life on this planet. It's also a freaking nightmare to paint, if you haven't take the time to dissect what fire is, and how it should look. Shy of breaking out the lighter fluid, it's very hard to accurately depict fire on a miniature. Pewter is the polar opposite of what fire actually is. It is energy and light vs. solid matter, constant erratic movement vs. constant solid state. Luckily for us painters the problem is mostly in the sculptor's hands. Our only quandary is bringing life to those odd metal twists.
Painting the fire itself isn't actually all that hard if you start with a proper foundation. For thousands of years fire was our main source of light, and light does not begin with black. That's where light ends. Fire is a warm light, and while you could start with white, fire at its core is almost never white, even at it's brightest it has hints of yellow. So I begin my fire with a few washes of P3 Menoth White Highlight. MWH's coverage is pretty solid. I prefer washes here because I'll be working in a lot of layers here so I don't want to build up too thick of a foundation and obscure detail. I'm not worried about complete coverage quite yet. I know that it'll come in time, and when I've got the fists roughly covered I begin to turn up the color. I mix in a touch of P3 Cygnus Yellow to my next wash of MWH. This adds a touch more opacity to the base. Yellows, on their own, don't usually cover very well and when applied right over black they can take on a green tinge.
Gradually I work with more and more Cygnus Yellow until the fists are almost completely yellow. At this point I'm getting the coverage where I want it and I want to make sure that the hot parts stay looking toasty. I go back in with a wash of the MWH, just to make sure that all the recessed parts look like they could really cause a burn.
As fire cools though it darkens and then quickly dissipates out of the visual spectrum. To capture this I darken my yellows with a bit of P3 Heartfire and shortly work up to a mix of Heartfire and Khador Red Highlight. It'll take a bit of play back and forth to get a nice smooth transition but after a few passes I've got myself some flaming fists.
Flame Broiled
The story could end right here. But there's more to it than that. Wrapped up on the fists are heavy chains. I could use metallic paints, but I don't feel like it would look right. When metal gets hot it expands and usually just before it starts to glow red that nice shiny surface expands beyond the point where it reflects light as a glossy surface. A shiny chain will start to go black then gray then red, orange and so on until hits a yellow white and melts. Melted chains aren't going to get us anywhere and we're talking 2000 degree heat or more here to pull that off. Fantasy troll with regeneration or not, 2000 degrees is more than enough to sear flesh right from the bone, and burn the bone to dust right after that. So it's clear to me we're talking about a nice barbeque level of heat. Just enough to sear up some tasty 6 legged elephant steaks. I left the chains pretty close to white along the way so getting them to look heated, was pretty easy. A wash of P3 Bastion Gray and a subsequent wash of VMC Smoke, gets me the look I'm going for. A quick Highlight of the exposed chain with Bastion Gray and a touch of MWH, and I'm done.
Let there be light
I could stop here. I got my flaming fists, but to me that's not really driving home the picture. Fire is light and it should cast light. The interesting thing about painting cast firelight is that you paint it the exact OPPOSITE as the fire itself. Here's where you get to apply all the normal things we apply when painting highlights, we're just applying the source from another direction. Terarin goes into great detail on his article about OSL and I'm applying the same tricks here, just with different colors.
I want the light to be warm and diffused though. It's coming from multiple directions and is constantly moving. Harsh shadows will only serve to decrease the believability here. How do we get around sharp shadows? Washes of course. I start out by blocking out the reflected orange. Some paints work better as the over coat. I like the transparency of Bastion Gray better than Khador Red Highlight, so I start with the KRH and block in all the places I think the fire will illuminate. Then I glaze on a few coats of the Bastion Grey to tone down the orange of KRH. The body parts closer to the fire see glazes of Heartfire and the tiniest glaze of Cygnus Yellow.
At this point it's all down to the details. I do several washes back and forth until I'm happy with the outcome and that's it. Only a half dozen or so paints to do this whole model, but I think it's effective.
Experiment; Play with fire.
Signing off.

Took me forever to solve this issue. Found a single post on a single site. A site was in a redirect loop because a page had a 301 redirect at one point with a really long cache time. I noticed the error to late (changed it to a 302 redirect). Broke Firefox and chrome for a while until I did a hard reload and empty cache on chrome. For firefox, after dumping the cache and it not working, I finally found out the trick is to simply open your Firefox history, right-click the troubled website there, and then select "Forget About This Site". That should solve all your troubles for the end of time!
Definitely download Zen Sudoku on Google Play if you have an Android device!
Again, check it out on Google Play if you like sudoku. We should have an iOS version up fairly soon and then Zen Sudoku will be on the web.
I've recently been playing around with S3Stat to analyze the traffic to a web application I run with a friend.
In the beginning of the month we got billed significantly more than expected for bandwidth. We were surprised so we looked into a way to parse our s3 stats without a pain in the neck. S3Stat appeared on a few forums so we tried it out. We caught our first hotlinker in the first 2 days and got them to stop. But a few days later it looks like they started up again.
Kind of obvious isn't it? That little dip between the large ups is our normal bandwidth consumption. And this is information we'd never know about without S3stat or having to write our own solution.
While the chart doesn't tell you who is contributing to the bandwidth consumption, their other data does. They provide a list of URLS by bandwidth used so we could find which file was being requested the most. More conveniently, they provide a list of referrers to our site. That let us easily pinpoint who was using our bandwidth so we could let that site know that we could not support them for much longer.
So thanks to S3Stat we are now saving (lots of!) money and we know exactly where our bandwidth is being used at. I think we'll keep using them for a long time.
Been working hard for the last few months on a variety of projects. That includes a port of Zen Sudoku to Android and iOS. Here are some screenshots to look forward to.
Just a quick preview of our next game! It is going pretty fast because we know what we want and I'm finally on a break!
I've been working more on the Zombie Prototype. I've added procedural generated rooms and corridors in a labyrinth/dungeon/cave type style. I randomly generated a specified number of rooms spread out and only overlapping by 2 tiles at most. Then I chose an entrance/exit from each room and calculate the path to each other room from it using an A* formula with no diagonals. If no path can be found, it skips it, so it could be possible for an isolated room at this point. Of course, I'd love to add a lot more to it sometime in the future. Getting the basics down is good for now. After running, it usually generate a map that looks something like this:
The brown scattered tiles that seem out of place is an alternate entrance/exit that was also calculated in case I'm going to change the way these rooms are connected.
Then I scanned through the rooms and generated an estimated number of zombies. Right now I set a total count and it generates somewhere around that many zombies (some randomness involved) all divided into their own rooms. The zombies are them spawned on the center tile of each room with a little variation so spreading out will be easier. Since I've added a repulsion algorithm to each zombie they naturally spread out into a better looking formation. A demo I ran with 25 zombies specified (up to 30 zombies can be generated since it the algorithm generates n to 1.2n zombies) and here is how they spread out after a second or two:
And then, to get a better look at how the repulsion algorithm works and to make sure it actually is working, I correctly scaled the map (previous pictures are at .6 scale) and spawned the player in the first room. After moving around a bit to collect the attention of zombies, I let them swarm for a bit around me. They generated a roughly circular shape as expected, each trying to push the others out of the way to get to me. Just like any real zombie would. The repulsion is a double check. If a different zombie is within the inner radius of another, the different zombie will get a strong repulsion. If the different zombie is within the outer radius, the same will happen though with a smaller repulsion force. This helps keep zombies from overlapping for sure (strong repulsion) and spread out a bit (weak repulsion) when they are following the player. Here is their clustering:
(Yep, there is some repulsion bugs currently when too many zombies are in one spot, which shove zombies outside of rooms unfortunately. You can see these bugs in the top left and top right)
And of course, I turned on the dynamic lighting. You can also see a bit of their following clustering in the image as well. They are quite spread out while they are attempting to reach me.

Arizona Cardinals first round draft pick guard Jonathan Cooper fractured his left fibula. He had surgery on that fracture and the Cardinals are "holding out hope he can return later in the season" according to the team's website.
"We don't want him to be a rookie again next year," head coach Bruce Arians said.
To fill Cooper's now vacant spot at the left guard position is right guard Daryn Colledge. The musical chairs continue, to fill his vacant spot at right guard is back up Paul Fanaika.
"(Daryn) is not as athletic as Coop, but he's more than adequate," Arians said.
The left guard in Arians offense pulls a lot and Colledge isn't quite as able as Cooper is when healthy.
Anyways, best case scenario Cooper is back in 10-to-12 weeks according to Arians. That would make him available for the last six weeks of the season. The Cardinals however have to get the roster down to 75-men by tomorrow and 53 by August 31st. The Cardinals could still decide to put him on the injured reserve list.

The following all went wrong at the same time (literally on the same journey home from work) on my '98 Legacy.
o Speedometer stopped working - just reads zero. Hasn't worked since.
o Check Engine light came on. Now it comes on every trip, after about 3 miles, and usually stays on. It doesn't flash or anything.
o Car started stalling at junctions and other low revs/de-clutch moments.
Everything else on the car seems fine, and it recently did a 200 mile journey with no problems except the junction stalling (which gets better when it;s really warmed up).
Can these 3 problems really all be related? Any idea what is up?

The cold weather has finally broken allowing a foray onto the ice and snow….and there's plenty of both. A somewhat windy Sunday produced a few lake trout for dinner that night. Jigging spoons was the only tactic we tried that day.
{ 9 comments… read them below or add one }
I give, what IS Mike doing?
Gord…Perhaps it's just the lighting, but Hugh G. Rection is looking a little stiff out on the ice.
Good to see the family out on the ice. I think Mike should be featured in one of the new reality shows that seem to be all about discovering gold and gems. Perchmaster….just think about the possibilities of catching bull perch through the ice??
Sad news regarding the professor….
I have returned as a zombie professor.

Incision-Free Technique Helps Avoid Colon Surgery
Minimally Invasive Surgery Targets Large and Flat Growths in Colon
By Robin O'Connor
Judith McKibben, a retired Bay Area interior designer, had a routine colonoscopy last year that revealed a large, carpetlike growth needing removal. Wanting to avoid surgery that would remove a large section of her colon, Judith sought treatment at California Pacific Medical Center (CPMC).
Overall, about 5 percent of adults present with large polyps, or growths, within the colon during routine colonoscopy screenings. Often these polyps are flat against the colon's surface or too large to be removed during colonoscopy. While many doctors advocate open or laparoscopic surgery to remove such polyps, another alternative exists.
Advanced Technology Offers Benefits
"We use advanced technology at California Pacific Medical Center to perform an incision-free procedure for large colon polyps: endoscopic mucosal resection," says Kenneth Binmoeller, M.D., medical director of the Paul May and Frank Stein Interventional Endoscopy Center at CPMC. "This helps individuals who would have otherwise faced surgical removal of part of their colon, which carries greater risk and a lengthy recovery time."
Judith learned she was a perfect candidate for endoscopic mucosal resection (EMR) after meeting with Dr. Binmoeller. Following her outpatient EMR procedure at CPMC, Judith went home the same day. "Dr. Binmoeller is a miracle worker," she marvels. "He said I had one of the largest polyps he had ever seen."
Technique Preserves Colon
As nationwide leaders in interventional endoscopy, Dr. Binmoeller and his colleagues are experts at visualizing abnormalities within the gastrointestinal tract and performing minimally invasive treatments. To date, they have performed more than 1,000 EMR procedures. As a pioneer of endoscopic treatments, Dr. Binmoeller published the first paper on endoscopic resection of giant colorectal polyps back in 1996 (Binmoeller et al, Gastrointestinal Endoscopy 1996; 43:.183-8).
During the EMR procedure, doctors insert a flexible endoscope the thickness of a pencil through the rectum and into the gastrointestinal tract. A tiny light and camera at the tip of the endoscope transmit magnified, high-definition images to a television monitor so the doctor can visualize the inside of the gastrointestinal tract.
To treat growths within the colon, Dr. Binmoeller uses a conduit within the endoscope to apply miniature surgical instruments. "These tiny ultrasound probes enable us to see into and beyond the intestinal wall, and then we can essentially 'lift' and remove the polyp and surrounding mucosal tissue in the colon," he explains.
"Advances in imaging technology such as high-definition video optics enable us to better detect and treat flat growths within the colon before they turn into invasive cancers," says Dr. Binmoeller.
In comparison to laparoscopic or open surgery, EMR preserves the function of the colon wall so digestion isn't affected. Additionally, EMR involves less risk and faster recovery. "Amazingly, we can remove affected tissue from nearly two-thirds of the colon wall thickness, leaving only a thin layer of muscle behind," explains Binmoeller. "Following treatment, healthy tissue grows back, fully restoring that area of the colon."
Colon Cancer Screening
Starting at age 50, you should get a colonoscopy to screen for abnormalities within your colon. Those with the highest incidence rate for colorectal cancer, according to 2008 data from the Centers for Disease Control (CDC), are blacks, followed by whites, and then Hispanics and Asian/Pacific Islanders.
Studies have found the following risk factors for colorectal cancer:
- Age over 50: Colorectal cancer is more likely to occur as people get older. More than 90 percent of people with this disease are diagnosed after age 50. The average age at diagnosis is 72.
- Colorectal polyps: Polyps are growths on the inner wall of the colon or rectum. They are common in people over age 50. Most polyps are benign (not cancer), but some polyps (adenomas) can become cancer. Finding and removing polyps may reduce the risk of colorectal cancer.
- Family history of colorectal cancer: Close relatives (parents, brothers, sisters, or children) of a person with a history of colorectal cancer are somewhat more likely to develop this disease themselves, especially if the relative had the cancer at a young age. If many close relatives have a history of colorectal cancer, the risk is even greater.
- Genetic alterations: Changes in certain genes increase the risk of colorectal cancer.

Chapter 83 Reviews
The boys go out drinking. What happens when they return? Edited. I wasn't to happy with this chapter so I re wrote some of it.
Chapter 8
Cassie's P.O.V
~2 weeks later~
I was sitting on the bus alone. Everyone had gone to a bar and I wasn't up for it. I had to convince Frank that I would be fine alone, he can be more protective than Bob sometimes. I heard the bus door open, they must be back.
Only Mikey walked in.
'Hey Mikey. Where are the others?' He shrugged and sat next to me.
'I don't know. I think they're still at the bar.' He was completely drunk. He shuffled closer to me and smiled. I just smiled back confused. Then he started playing with my hair.
'Uh. Mikey? What are you doing?' He chuckled.
'Just messing with your hair.' His face was pretty close to mine at this point. 'Why?'
'It's just kind of uncomfortable. I think you need to go to bed and sleep.' He smirked at me.
'Only if you come with me.' Then he crashed his lips to mine. I struggled but his strong arms wouldn't let me go. I heard a noise from the doorway and Mikey pulled back. I looked to see what it was and I saw Frank with his eyes open wide with tears pouring down his face. Before I had the chance to explain he ran off the bus. 'Cassie. I'm sorry I don't know why I did that.' I slapped him. I saw the red mark instantly covering his face. He looked really sad and held his hand to his face, but for once I didn't give a shit. Gerard, Ray and Bob came on the bus but I didn't notice.
'Sorry isn't enough Mikey. I don't care if you are drunk, I don't give two flying fucks if you thought it was a good idea or whatever other excuse you may come up with.' I ran off the bus to go search for Frank.
After about 5 minutes searching I went back to the bus.
'Guys have you seen Frank?' They shook their heads. I felt a tear run down my face. What if he wouldn't let me explain? I can't lose him. I know we haven't known each other for long but there is just something about him. Bob walked up to me. He pulled me into a hug and whispered 'Mikey explained, don't worry it will work out. Even if it takes a while for him to hear you out.' I sighed and nodded as he let me go. The door opened and Frank walked on, eyes red and puffy from crying.
'Leave me alone.' With that he crawled into his bunk. More tears fell down my face.
'Cassie I'm so so-' Mikey started I interrupted him.
'Fuck off Mikey.' I growled. Then I went to get in my bunk, I noticed something on the floor so I picked it up. It was a photo of Frank and me at the arcade. Smiling and with Ice-cream. He had some on his nose and I was wiping it off. I never realised this was taken. A small sad smile crossed my face at least he didn't rip it up. I climbed into my bunk and hugged the photo as I fell asleep.
~3 Days later.~
I woke up to a scream at about five am. It came from Frank. I jumped out of my bunk to find him by the kettle and boiling water everywhere. I noticed he had spilt it over his stomach. I went to get a flannel with cold water on as quickly as possible. When I got back he had just taken his shirt off and I held out the flannel. He took it but he wouldn't look at me. 'Frank.' Still nothing. 'Frank can I just explain?' He looked up.
'Oh yes please do explain why the fuck you were kissing my best friend!' He said in a flat tone. 'Please explain why once again I trusted people and they let me down, why I have had my heart broken, again.' I could see the anger on his face and the sadness in his eyes. I never realised how much he had been hurt.
'He kissed me. I was trying to get away but he was too strong. You can even go ask him yourself!' I said quietly. Hoping he would believe me. His eyes widened and he stormed off to the bunks.
'Mikey fucking Way get your arse up now.' I heard Frank scream. Then he came back followed by a very sleepy Mikey. 'Is this true?' He looked confused then it hit him what Frank was talking about. He looked extremely guilty and nodded. Frank punched him in the face and went to punch him again. I couldn't let him do this.
'Frank, no please stop it. It's not worth it and he probably didn't know what he was doing!' I pleaded. He looked at my face and he calmed down.
'Frank I really am sorry, I don't even know why I would do that, she's like a sister to me. I really don't know what came over me!' Frank was still looking at me and he could tell I thought he should apologise to Mikey.
'I'm sorry for hitting you. I just didn't understand how you could do this to me.' He was glaring at Mikey now.
'I'm sorry.' He whispered. Frank sighed.
'Whatever lets just drop it.' We all agreed and Mikey walked back of to the bunks.
Frank and I looked into each other's eyes.
'Cassie I'm sorry I should've listened to you instead of just going by what I saw.' He leant down and gently kissed my lips. I deepened the kiss and he ran his tongue against my bottom lip. I let his tongue enter my mouth. After a while we pulled back so we could breath but had our foreheads together. We smiled like idiots at each other. We didn't hear Bob come into the room. 'Ugh thank the dear lord they won't be moping around anymore.' He muttered to himself and we both chuckled.

L.A. Fire Department Urges Residents To Prepare For Flooding [1]
The rainy season is here and the Los Angeles County Fire Department [4] would like to urge residents who are living in areas prone to flooding, debris flows and mudslides to be prepared.
Don't miss a thing. Get breaking Santa Clarita news alerts [5] delivered right to your inbox.
Flowing water is considered an instant danger zone. Stay safe by following these tips:
Stay away from flood control channels, catch basins, canyons and natural waterways which are susceptible to flooding during periods of heavy rain.
Do not attempt to cross flooded areas and never enter moving water.
If flooding traps you in your car, stay inside. If the water rises higher, wait on top of your car for assistance. Do notstep into moving water around your car.
If you become isolated, seek the highest ground available and wait for help.
If you see someone who has been swept into moving water, do not enter the water and attempt a rescue. Immediately call 911 for trained emergency rescue personnel and, if possible, throw them some type of floatation device.
Know how to shut off all utilities. Remember, water and electricity donot mix.
Obtain sandbags ahead of time! Sandbags (and instructions about how to use them) are available at most L.A. County fire stations. Call your local fire station to find out where sand and sandbags may be picked up.
The more prepared you are the better of chances for survival during a major water-related emergency. For more information on flood safety and disaster preparedness, please visit: http://fire.lacounty.gov/SafetyPreparedness/SafetyPreparedness.asp [6]

Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
I rate this school a 5 star school. It is a kind and helpful place for your children. They use Abeka books, which are harder but worth it. Just being in the school and around the children and teachers makes up feel calm spiritual. God is all over in this school.
It is a family-friendly, non-denominational, Christian school that puts the students and quality education first! My girls have now attended since kindergarten and MCS has helped them to achieve high academics and relationships that are pleasing to God and others! I couldn't have made a better choice. We are currently building our own facility and the $5000 would go directly to helping get classrooms student ready.
Wonderful...Wonderful school!
It has all the ingredients that makes a school great. Loving and caring enviornment, personal attention and understanding that teachers provide here is like none elese. The academic program is challenging and keeps the kids up to the mark. PE is great. We are so happy for making this choice!
Marshalltown Christian School provides an excellent Christ centered education and allows the students to excel. The teachers think outside of the box and find ways for the students to use their own gifts to learn the material presented to them. The teachers teach compassion to the kids and are very compassionate people.
This school has great teachers and a wonderful school board. The kids there are all about each other. There is no competition between students. They all help, support, and love each other. It is the way school should be.
This is the 4th year my kids have attended and I still love it! The school has increased to PreK - 6th grade and growing. The quality of education is excellent and the one on one attention from the teachers can't be matched.
My daughter is a student at this school, and it is the best choice I made in my life. The teachers are so devoted they go above and beyond their duties! It is like a big family because they really care!

White House proposes solution to Fiscal Cliff that even they propably don't think is serious
If the Federal government were a human being, it would definitely be that person who wins the lottery and goes on television with a thick accent that leads you to believe they've spent 90% of their lives hunting squirrels to cook on their trailer's hot plate, thanking America for it's generosity because the money will totally help them pay off the credit card bills they racked up buying parts for their 4-Wheeler, only to be visited three years later by a reporter form Inside Edition who finds a bunch of cars on blocks in their front yard because for whatever reason, they got all that money and still spent it on parts for their 4-Wheeler.
The good news is, the lottery winner who takes a third of your income has decided it cannot possibly exist without more of your money, so we're locked in negotiations about how much it should be allowed to take while still spending like a drunken sailor with access to someone else's ATM card. And the White House has an awesome idea on how to solve the "revenue problem:" just raise taxes on everyone and continue spending like a drunken sailor with access to someone else's ATM card.
Oh, and let the President keep raising the debt limit on his America's credit cards without Congressional approval.
Because what could possibly go wrong.
The proposals from the White House – the first to use hard numbers – include a $1.6tn tax increase, a $50bn stimulus package and new presidential powers to raise the federal debt limit without congressional approval…
Boehner is said to have demanded matching spending cuts in return for raising the federal debt ceiling, which limits the total amount the US government can borrow. The Congressional Budget Office estimates it will be breached in February or March next year.
USA Today reports that three Republican congressional aides familiar with the president's offer cast it as an "outrageous" proposal that surprised the speaker and has set back negotiations on how to avoid the fiscal cliff coming at the end of the year, when all of the Bush-era tax rates expire and the first of $1.2tn in spending cuts over 10 years are triggered.
Aha. Ahahahaha. Ahahahahahahaha.
Oh this is serious.
Apparently, the White House initially promised entitlement reform, but that has yet to be brought up in any meeting that actually counts toward the end of this. Because this stuff is serious. And also hilarious. I mean, really.
The assumption here is obviously that John Boehner is dumb enough to take this deal, and he probably is. Of course, given that Republicans will get blamed whether this has half the tax cuts or none of the tax cuts, the answer to the offer remains pretty clear. Take the blame. Take the half. Ask for pie.

FRIDAY, June 3 (HealthDay News) -- In 1991, the life of a
6-year-old girl in Texas named Danielle began to unravel.
First, her father learned that he was infected with HIV, the
virus that causes AIDS. Her mother went in for screening soon after
and received the same grim result.
Then her parents' worst fears were realized: Danielle had been
infected at birth.
In those days, when life-prolonging antiretroviral drugs were
still years away, the prognosis for little girls with HIV was
"The mortality in kids was quite high: maybe a third of children would die in the first year of life and the number of kids that made it to 9 or 10 was pretty small, maybe 10 to 20 percent at best," said one pediatric HIV specialist, Dr. Russell Van Dyke, head of the Section of Pediatric Infectious Diseases at Tulane University in New Orleans.
As family and medical staff struggled to care for Danielle, she
watched her parents fade. Her mother died of AIDS-related illness
when Danielle was 7, and her father passed away when she was 10.
Doctors told Danielle's remaining family that she probably wouldn't
see her 14th birthday.
But she did enjoy that birthday, and many more since. Now 26, a
young mother living in Dallas, Danielle (who preferred not to give
her full name) is one of thousands of perinatally infected young
Americans who reflect the sweeping changes that have marked the
story of HIV/AIDS in America.
That story began, on paper at least, with the June 5, 1981,
publication of an article from the U.S. Centers for Disease Control
and Prevention describing a mysterious but deadly illness affecting
a cluster of gay men. That illness, AIDS, has since claimed the
lives of 594,496 Americans, the CDC announced this week, and more
than a million people in the United States now live with HIV.
But with the advent of powerful HIV-suppressing drugs in the
mid-1990s, things began to change. Now, the focus has turned from
dying of AIDS to living with HIV.
"The fundamental change is that it's gone from essentially a fatal disease, or at least a disease with a very high mortality, to now a long-term chronic disease," Van Dyke said. For HIV-infected kids, "most are leading normal lives and going to school, doing all the things that we'd like them to do," he said.
That revolution in care has been a lifesaver for young people
like Jasmine, a 17-year-old from Chalmette, La., who found out only
last year that she had been infected with HIV at birth.
Luckily, Jasmine's viral load has remained low and as yet she
hasn't needed to start anti-HIV medications. But the revelation of
her status was tough.
"It's something that you deal with on a daily basis," said Jasmine (who also requested anonymity). "You just really have to pray about it because it's something that you can't get rid of."
Jasmine was comparatively lucky in that HIV has remained in
abeyance most of her life. The situation was different for
Danielle, who was placed on medications as a little girl.
She admitted that as a small child she often avoided the
bad-tasting medicines, secretly throwing them away. And those
repeat episodes of "non-adherence" to therapy gave HIV a chance to
mutate and become drug-resistant.
"As a matter of fact, I now have resistance to all HIV meds except the ones I am taking now," Danielle said.
That's a common problem for young people with HIV, another
expert said. "There are times when children are not going to do a
great job of taking their meds," said Dr. Tess Barton, medical
director of the AIDS-Related Medical Services Clinic at Children 's
Medical Center in Dallas.
By the time children grow old enough to understand just how
importance adherence is, the damage is done and many are left with
just one or two drugs that work, Barton said.
In a recent study conducted led by Van Dyke, about two-thirds of
the 451 perinatally infected children under active treatment who
were tracked over time had HIV levels that remained so low they
weren't detectable. Of the other third, most remained healthy but
had more trouble keeping the virus at safe levels. "All of these
kids have been on therapy most of their lives," Van Dyke noted. "We
anticipate that they will be on therapy for the rest of their lives
unless something dramatic changes."
Stigma is another burden these children face. Even in 2011, it's
not easy for kids to disclose their HIV status to others, experts
say. Danielle said she remembers being "isolated" as a child
because of it. Even her teachers "would make up excuses why I
couldn't go on school field trips," she said. "I'm thinking they
just didn't want to deal with me."
But as she grew into adulthood, Danielle decided to try and
change things. She's now a peer advisor working with a major
hospital in Dallas, helping young people with HIV deal with their
diagnosis and the stresses it can bring.
"I tell them HIV is a disease -- yes, it happens. But it happened already, and what you can do now is take that next step and take care of yourself," she said. "There are going to be some changes in your life and it's going to be like a roller coaster, but everything will be OK as long as you keep faith and you do what you have to do."
One recent big change in Danielle's life: her 15-month-old baby
boy, born HIV-free thanks to his mom's use of virus-suppressing
medications during pregnancy.
And so the generation of HIV-infected children that was not
supposed to make it to adulthood has thrived and is now producing
healthy children of its own.
Back in Louisiana, Jasmine said she's optimistic about her
"You don't have to be so down and out about HIV, you can enjoy your life," she said. "I'm very high-spirited about anything that I do. I have HIV, but I deal with it the best way that I can."

Don't miss the second annual Feature Film Project, a new concept in film distribution brought to you by the creators of The Manhattan Short Film Festival! Your vote can help bring this undistributed indie film back to The Loft for a regular engagement!
"Get ready to be charmed by the existentialist crime rom-com Everyone's Going to Die." – Todd Brown, Twitch
"A delightfully quirky British indie, this film is a real gem. Funny, serious and completely entertaining, this is a real find, highly recommended. – Jan Hamilton, True View Reviews
"Engrossing performances … completely unpretentious and seriously funny." – Ashley Moreno, Austin Chronicle
Everyone's Going to Die, the feature directorial debut of British filmmaker duo Jones, is a quirky comedy that tells the story of two lost souls and one last chance. Melanie's life in a seaside town is going nowhere until she meets Ray, back in town with a shady job to do. A moment's escape becomes a chance to save themselves, and each other, and the oddball duo spend an incident-filled day roaming the streets and finding all sorts of unusual adventures. Everyone's Going To Die, blending elements of darkly absurd crime comedy with misfit romance, is a modern British story about coming home, getting by and the redemptive power of feeling you're not alone. A story where porn hotlines rub shoulders with sexy beavers on rollerskates; where the past is laid to rest, two lives are changed and nobody, finally, is going to die.
Everyone's Going to Die is one of a new breed of British independent films where story is king. Shot on a tiny budget in the summer of 2012, the film stars Rob Knighton, a former carpet fitter in his first ever acting role, and German star Nora Tschirner. The film was shot over one month in a small seaside village, where local townspeople worked as crew, extras and supporting artists. The film was selected to World Premiere at the 2013 SXSW Film Festival, and then nominated for Best British Film at the 2013 Edinburgh International Film Festival. It is now this year's selection for the 2nd Annual Feature Film Project. (Dir. by Jones, 2013, UK, 85 mins., Not Rated) Digital

Philly Cheese Steak Sandwich
From EatingWell: March/April 2011
Most of the good stuff in a Philly cheese steak, from thin-sliced steak to onions, peppers and mushrooms, is still here but we opt for slightly-less-gooey but more flavorful provolone cheese in place of Cheese Whiz. We adore spicy banana peppers as a topping, but omit them if you can do without the heat.

- Reduce heat to low. Sprinkle the vegetables and meat with flour; stir to coat. Stir in banana peppers (if using) and broth; bring to a simmer. Remove from the heat; lay cheese slices on top of the vegetables and meat, cover and let stand until melted, 1 to 2 minutes.
- Divide into 4 portions with a spatula, leaving the melted cheese layer on top. Scoop a portion onto each bun and serve immediately.
Tips & Notes
- Tip: It is easiest to cut meat into thin slices if it is partially frozen. If you have time, freeze it for 20 minutes before slicing.

Kii Arens is constantly creating band and tour posters. An artist unafraid of bold, attention-grabbing graphics, he produces appropriately over-the-top prints with illustrations and collages that scream as loud as the bands they promote. Showing a graphic originally created for a Tame Impala concert held in Montreal, this giclée print features a kaleidoscopic image of a female model awash in zigzag light that perfectly compliments the band's hip psychedelic sound.

What is a Facelift?
Before and After Facelift Photos
Facelift surgery can improve many signs of aging in the lower third of the face and neck including loose or sagging skin, jowls, neck bands, and lines and wrinkles. During the procedure excess fat is removed, the underlying muscles are tightened, and the skin is re-draped. The result is a more youthful and rejuvenated appearance.
Do I Need a Facelift?
Individuals who are looking to improve the appearance of loose skin, jowls and lines and wrinkles along the lower third of the face and neck may be good candidates for a facelift. As with all types of surgery, it's important that patients be in good health and be realistic in their expectations of the outcome. Patients should also understand the limitations of surgery. The facelift cannot stop the aging process or turn back the clock, but it can improve the overall facial appearance and help you to look your best. During your consultation, Dr. Donath will help you to decide if a facelift is right for you. He will consider such factors as skin type, ethnicity, individual healing, bone structure and skin elasticity when determining if you are an appropriate candidate. If necessary, he may recommend additional procedures to help you achieve your desired look. For instance, may patients will also receive facial liposuction in conjunction with the facelift.
The Facelift Procedure
Facelift surgery may be performed with a combination of mild sedatives, local anesthesia and mild intravenous anesthesia. In some cases, general anesthesia may be used instead. Dr. Donath will begin the surgery by making the incision which typically begins above the hairline at the temples and runs in front of and behind the ear, ending behind the earlobe in the lower scalp. If the neck requires work, an additional small incision may be made beneath the chin. For male patients, the incision will be located in such a way to accommodate the natural beard lines. Working through the incisions, the underlying muscle and connective tissue will be repositioned and tightened, some fat may be removed, and the excess skin will be trimmed. The incisions will then be closed with fine sutures or metal clips and a dressing may be applied. While surgical times will vary, the facelift may take anywhere from two to four hours to complete.
Dressings applied after surgery are usually removed within one to two days along with the drainage tubes if used. Pain is generally minimal after the facelift, but medication will likely be prescribed. Some swelling and bruising can be expected and patients may also experience some numbness of the skin. Prior to surgery, patients should arrange for family or friends to assist them during their recovery. Stitches and staples are typically removed within five to ten days after the facelift. The resulting scars are usually well-concealed within the hairline and natural skin creases and they will continue to fade with time. Most patients are able to return to work within about two weeks after their facelift, though rigorous activities and sun exposure will be prohibited for several weeks.

Names we've heard lately
MagsterKeymaster11 months, 3 weeks ago
Heard anything new or interesting lately?
childofthewavesParticipant10 months, 1 week ago
haha. I won't tell her parents that. But it's pronounced like Ray or Rae not Ree-a.
jenni_lynn91Participant10 months, 1 week ago
My brother-in-law's wife just had a girl named Loremy. My best friend gave birth today to a boy named Davien.
NMteacherParticipant10 months ago
I had a Guinevere in a Sunday school class I taught recently. She was about 4.
childofthewavesParticipant10 months ago
ooh,Guinevere! I love that!
I'm really not fond of many/any D names and I really don't like Davien… :/
lilybellParticipant10 months ago
I was watching A Baby Story today and the couple had two sons Sebastian and Julian and added daughter Natasha. I really like the boys names I don't like the girl's but I think it's because of associations with the name.
ashthedreamerParticipant10 months ago
Little kids I've come across today:
Emma (x2. I love Emma, but I'm starting to see the whole "Emma's so overdone!" thing! I only ever would have used it for a middle, anyway. Or as a nn for Emmeline…)
Genayah (sp? I only heard it. jeh-NYE-ah)
All girls.
I also was at a special programme for my sister's senior class at her school this week, and they had all the names of the students printed on the bulletin. Some of the more interesting ones:
Anecia (ah-NEE-see-ah)
Crisella (LOVE THIS SO MUCH! Maybe it's because it reminds me of Ariella, which I'm adoring right now, or maybe it's just because she was little-baby-doll adorable. I don't know. But I'm really loving it!)
Dehk0ntee (but she went exclusively by Grace?! I think Grace is lovely, but Dehk0ntee?)
Celica (think Celeste and Jessica smooshed together. SEL-ih-kah)
Fayth (I just find the spelling interesting. I know more Faiths who have their name misspelled than actually spelled like the word. Faith, Fayth, Faythe…)
George (I was just happy to see a teenager named George, haha!)
Shyna (SHY-nah? I guess?
John-Andrew (he's from Bermuda! I just love double-barrels with John. John-Andrew is pretty cool. :))
Also interesting to note: there were two Asias (one spelled Asya), two Jamies (one of each gender), and two Adriana/Adriannas (one with each spelling). I didn't know any of those were that popular…
Crisella, Sebastian, and John-Andrew were my favorites. Besides, of course, my sister's name: Natalie "Tallie".
Haven't seen you on in a while ashthedreamer! Good to see you around again!
ashthedreamerParticipant10 months ago
@yellowwatts – haha! A couple months ago my laptop screen cracked. I go back and forth with being able to get online–it's really quite frustrating to do it on my iPod. I had my parents' computer all to myself a couple hours tonight, so I was actually on. I don't expect it to become a habit, though. There's seven of us in the house–and most of us share my parents' computer. Online time is pretty limited these days, haha.
Oh I'm sorry. Hopefully you can get it resolved soon!
ashthedreamerParticipant9 months, 4 weeks ago
I was catching up on TV the past day or so, and I found it ironic that there are new babies in two of my favorite shows! There's a Mackenzie (boy) in Covert Affairs (surname Campbell), and a Joan (girl) in Hawaii Five-0 (surname McGarrett, I think). Both struck me as interesting. I like Mackenzie more than Joan, but I liked the reasoning behind Joan (I would have much preferred to see Jane or Johanna instead, though!).
Also, I've heard at work lately:
Daisy (I have only ever met Hispanic Daisys… is this a Pennsylvania thing? Does anybody know anyone with the name that isn't Hispanic? I'm just curious. :))
TheWishingStarParticipant9 months, 4 weeks ago
ashthedreamer – I've only ever met one Daisy, a cute little old woman and definitely not Hispanic. I come from an area with a pretty significant Hispanic population, maybe it is a PA thing? Or a north-east thing?
One of my professors' wife had a baby a few days ago, his name is Frederick! Prof said when he was born, he "just looked like a Fred." I'm pretty sure they have a son named Benjamin, too.
And, met a girl named Randee a few months ago and forgot about her until a friend mentioned her again. I honestly had forgotten that she was a girl, though; when he said Randee I figured it was one of our school officials or something. It's kind of an outdated boy's name to me.
ashthedreamerParticipant9 months, 4 weeks ago
Hmm. Maybe it is one of those things for my county, haha! Not unlike how I've met TWENTY-STINKIN-FIVE Elijahs in my county, as well!
Some names I heard today, some at work, some not:
Kali (no clue if this is Callie or Kaylee?)
Diana (I stinkin' must have met five women named Diana today! I knew it was popular, but that popular?!)
Nathaniel "Nathan"
There was another girls' name, but I can't remember it. Hmm.
TheWishingStarParticipant9 months, 3 weeks ago
Met an Amity the other day. My friend immediately pointed out that apparently that word is a place/faction/thing in the Divergent book/movie series (I haven't read it, I don't know what Amity is in that), and I had to inform her that it is also a word and a name. She thought it sounded made-up.
LuvEthanParticipant9 months, 3 weeks ago
I heard a mom on the sidelines of the soccer field calling her young son. His name was Cabot Andrew. I thought it sounded very nice when she said it.
I've also heard Cannon (Boy), Hadley (Girl), Shasta (Girl), Paisley (Girl), Payson (Girl but could be either I think), Kinleigh (Girl).
LuvEthanParticipant9 months, 3 weeks ago
OH! I also saw two sisters on television named Charlotte and Georgina. Their nicknames were Charlie and Georgie. They were really cute little girls!
ashthedreamerParticipant9 months, 2 weeks ago
Charlotte and Georgina "Charlie and Georgie" are so cute! I like Georgiana more than Georgina, but still, so lovely. Very Austen-ian, too.
Some names I've heard lately:
Ben and Jane (siblings. I assume Ben was Benjamin? Still, Benjamin and Jane are pretty cute.)
Angelica and Aidan (little Aidan–eep! Only two weeks old!–was dedicated at my church today. We don't do baby baptisms, but we do dedicate our children to God and have a little prayer and ceremony and such. They don't regularly attend, but little Angelica goes to our church school. And och, such a sweet little lady! She's so adorable. Like a little princess.)
NMteacherParticipant9 months, 2 weeks ago
I have a Maisie in my class, but she pronounces it like Macy. I think she must always be correcting people from saying it with a z sound.

TheWishingStarParticipant9 months, 2 weeks ago
I was browsing through the "People you may know" on my Facebook (putting off doing any real work) and found some unusual ones! Some of these I've probably posted in the past, since they're mostly people I DO know but don't want to be friends with, but new forum, new people, don't care.
Gisela (pronounded YEE-seh-lah.)
Devin, and her last name is pronounced divine.
Xela (pronounced like Shayla)
Brady (female)
Niles and Cyrus (twins)
MaryJordan (no space. Sometimes goes by MJ)
Saba (female)
Lindley (boy's middle name)
Eugene "Gene"
Sunny (male)
Caileen (kay-leen)
Nessa (full name)
Skylar (female)
Aubry (male. The spelling angers me)
Emile (prn. Emily, female)
Tate (male)
Jaycee (female)
Jeniffer (imagine how hard it would be to correct the spelling all the time!)
Mali (prn Molly)
Monsieree (female, prn. mon-SEH-REE)
Maite (female, prn. MAI-tay)
Jens (male, prn Yens)
Kelcy (people like this are the reason no one can spell my name right…)
Alaska "Allie"
Terran (female)
Farin (female)
Wylie (female)
Efua (female)
That's probably plenty for now….

FAIRBANKS-It was a matchup between two of the top teams in the Midwest division and two stellar goalies. But the Ice Dogs' Kevin Aldridge is hot right now and it helped the Ice Dogs secure a 2-1 shootout victory over the Wilderness last night.
Both teams traded goals in the first two periods. Jacob Hetz put the Ice Dogs ahead at the 11:03 mark of the first period with an assist from Hans Gorowsky. But the Wilderness would answer with a Johno May goal occurring less than four minutes remaining in the second period.
After that it was the team defense and goalie show. Minnesota killed five penalites. The Ice Dogs killed three including a five-on-three power play in the second. The Ice Dogs had some definite chances where a shot went the five hole of Wilderness goalie Kasimir Kaskisou but went wide somehow.
Kaskisou made 37 saves on 38 shots while Aldridge had 24 saves on 25 shots. Those two goalies did everything from glove saves and splits to force overtime. In the extra session neither defense or goalie let up and the game went to shootout.
Minnesota's Thomas Lindstrom was denied by Aldridge on the first attempt but Fairbanks' own Tayler Munson would show him how it was done. Munson led off for the Ice Dogs made a nice simple goal as he got Kaskisou off his spot for the goal.
Then Jakon Romo, the former Ice Dog, got his crack at Aldridge but his shot went wide. Brett Gervais suffered the same fate for the Ice Dogs as Kakisou deflected his shot wide.
Aldridge got low to block Brett Hekikila's on the next attempt as well. Then Jacob Hetz followed up his goal from the first going right to left and going top side opposite corner of the net on Kaskisou who couldn't get a glove on it. Kaskisou came into the series was the best statiscal goalie in the NAHL.
However, Aldridge is arguably the hottest goalie in the league right now. Aldridge did a sliding split and blocked Mike Covach's shot by his toe to get the win for his team not allowing a goal in the shootout.
The win ends Minnesota's 10 game winning streak and hands Kaskisou jsut his second loss of the season. Both teams back in the Big Dipper tonight at 7:30.

RhythmTech RT6000 Trigger TrianglePlay the RhythmTech RT6000 Trigger Triangle on a table top, hand-held, or mounted using the RT7960 mount. This amazing triangle gives players more speed and precision. RhythmTech includes a high-carbon steel 5" triangle and striker.
Order today with the no-risk assurance of our Total Satisfaction and Low Price Guarantees!
As an elementary band teacher, I find the this triangle is perfect for young percussionists. Because this triangle is easy to hold, strike and manage, my students can focus more on their music and watching the director than worrying about hitting a moving target (a swinging triangle). I've purchased this triangle for both of my schools and have introduced and converted many teachers. If you buy this you won't be sorry
My wife bought one of these mounts for me as a birthday present over 10 years ago (maybe 15 years ago), and it has held up well. In those day, it was pictured with the magnetic base, and when the base did not arrive, she had to fight with the vendor to get it. Without the base, I doubt that it would be truly useful because it is rather top heavy. With the base it definitely gives a rock-solid mount, and is an important part of my kit.
Since then I've moved up to a higher quality triangle because the double hangers take out some of the overtones, and I had to trim/shorten the padded grip to make the new triangle fit. The grip itself has also held up well, but I rarely touch it so it really never gets handled. The rubber rings have to be replaced periodically, and that has produced wear on the plastic end caps. One got lost last week when I took the triangle to a gig (wasn't me -- I had help packing my gear), so I hope that RT has new ones available.
The best part is that the triangle mounts up, and does not dangle from a string. This allows access from the top, like a wood block or cowbell, and lets me mount it below my roll-cymbal to give a more compact set-up.
* Price guarantee valid on all new in-stock merchandise sold by an authorized U.S. Dealer. Guarantee does not apply to discontinued, blemished, damaged, closeout, open box, refurbished or auction items. You will be contacted via email shortly after submission of request.

I'm quick to "demonize" homosexuality because I believe that it is wrong, gross and detrimental to the continuation of the human race.
The homosexual agenda is the idea that homosexuality is something that should be accepted, and that homosexuals are on the same moral and functional level as heterosexuals.
How can you label what they are doing as homosexual if the concept "homosexual" did not exist at that time? Allegedly abnormal/unnatural sexual practices can be satisfied through normal/natural means? That's quite contradictory. If they can be satisfied by normal/natural means could it not be possible that they are not inherently unnatural/abnormal?
Homosexuality thus far has not been detrimental to the continuation of the human race as we continue to experience exponential growth in our species, something that is
to be detrimental.
The homosexual agenda applies the concept of "homosexual", something that I have repeatedly stated as being relatively new. Why shouldn't homosexuality be accepted? Because of your own personal prejudices? Could I take the same stand on heterosexuality and expect people to buy into that ideal?
