Getting Pregnant

Baby and Beyond
Yay for comments! I hope more people start to leave me comments. It helps to know that people care enough to check my journal.
I finished my Clomid, and with the exception of being really tired and sore boobs, I feel fine. I'm having an annoying problem, though...I'm spotting really heavily. It's old blood (black and brown- sorry if too much information) but it's really annoying.
I'm on CD 9 right now and I had a negative OPK. They say to start using them on CD10, so I started a day earlier, but I wanted to be sure.
Hopefully by the end of this coming week/next weekend, I'll have done the IUI!
Uh-oh. Positive OPK this morning. This is not good- my RE's office is closed for the weekend unless you've contacted them ahead of time to let them know you may be needing to see someone for an IUI. I have no way to get ahold of them.
Maybe it's just a fluke? I'll test again in a little bit.
I am so confused! I've had 3 more positives on First Response OPK's, but a digital was negative!
I think we're going to head down there in the morning and have them do an ultrasound on me right away. If it shows I haven't ovulated yet, maybe I'll just get them to freeze the sperm sample and we can have it on hand.
Ugh. I thought this was going to be easier and it's not.
I just decided to not go down. I've taken more digital ovulation tests and they're negative. I trust them more since you don't have to look at the line on them. I think when I cancel my IUI appointment, I'll have them schedule an ultrasound for tomorrow or Tuesday to see what is going on.
Susan- yep, the test line has to be as dark or darker than the control line. First Response tests are known for being sensitive (just like their pregnancy tests), but I'm thinking that it must have been some residual clomid in my system. I've taken another digi and it was negative, and an Answer OPK, and it was in no way close to positive.
I usually ovulate on CD 17-19. I'm fairly confident I have no ovulated yet. I'm really hoping I go down there this morning for an ultrasound and they confirm that, obviously because I don't want to have missed the IUI opportunity, but because I want to prove to them that I know my body. I know that sounds silly, but it's true.
I'm so....what's the word....ambivalent about this cycle. I don't know if it's because my mind is telling me to not be hopeful, or if it's because I have my vacation to look forward to, or what.
Confession: a few months ago, I contacted cheri 22. She's a psychic that is known around pregnancy and trying to conceive websites for predicting when women will get pregnant and their genders. She's has about an 80% rate of being correct. I'm not real big on psychics at all, but it was cheap and a fun thing to do. She said that I would conceive in June and be due in March. So we'll see.
I can't wait to be pregnant again. Really. The thought of it makes me very excited. So I can't quite figure out my feelings right now. Weird.
I like Cheri's prediction. Preggo in June is just around the corner. When is your u/s scheduled for? It will tell you if you ovulated right? I don't think you did. I would trust the digital test before the line one. Tried the line one a few times when we were TTCING before Gabriel and I never got a positive. LOL. It freaked me out so bad.
I know it has been a very long road but I so excited for you b/c I know that one of these days you are going to announce you BFP. You are getting closer and closer to that date!!!!!

Best mashed potatoes ever! I make these every Thanksgiving and they are a true crowd pleaser. I use 2% or whole milk (so much for cooking light!) and omit the chives. It is a little difficult to get the rind off but easier if it's chilled, as mentioned.
Camembert Mashed Potatoes

smellgar Posted: 11/26/09
This is a nice take on mashed potatoes. However, based on others' reviews, I halved the amount of potatoes and kept the cheese amount the same. It had a nice "cheese-y" flavor, but not overpowering. I can imagine if I hadn't halved the potatoes it would have been impossible to tell anything else was in there. Don't know if I'd make these again, as they aren't *that* much better than the old standby, which is cheaper and less work.

I added a bit of butter to make it creamier. Made it for Xmas dinner with my family and they loved it. The camembert is subtle but adds a unique flavor.

Other Guy Who Likes Me Says WHAT!?!?!0 Reviews
Gerard takes Julie out to dinner- will it go as He plans or will it be an atomic bomb explosion waiting to happen?
"This really nice blue cocktail dress with a silver shimmer running through it" I grinned.
"Curled slightly with a clip on one side that pulls everything but My fringe back"
"Make up?"
"Black eyeliner, silver shimmery eye shadow, dark pink lipstick"
"And jewelery?"
"None- I figured that simplicity is better"
"You are learning so fast! I am so excited for You- where is He taking You?"
"Hopefully somewhere that has never heard of mushrooms" I giggled as I sat down and put My shoes on.
"You have to call Me afterward- I want all the details"
"I swear You have gone fifteen year old on Me" I smiled as I grabbed My silver clutch off the bed and made My way towards the front of the bus.
"Whatever- You better call Me" She demanded and hung up.
I rolled My eyes and put the phone in My clutch, took a deep breath, and opened the door of the bus.
"Good God She scrubs up well" Ray exclaimed.
"You look amazing" Mikey smiled.
I smiled back at Mikey but I could see a flash of pain cross His eyes.
"I'm nothing special" I rolled My eyes and walked over to Mikey to give Him a hug.
"I think You are- let's go"
I turned to see Gerard waiting for Me.
I nodded at Gerard, turned to Mikey and smiled, and than caught up to Gerard (for some reason He had already started walking).
"It's okay Mikey- it's just a date" Bob said, trying to cheer Me up.
"I know. But I don't have to like it" I mumbled to nobody in particular.
"She looked great though didn't She?" Ray asked.
"She gets it from Her Mother" Frankie grinned.
"So where are We going?" I asked.
"You'll see" Gerard smiled at Me.
We walked down the street for a while until finally We made it to a nice looking Italian pizzeria.
I was slightly bummed at the idea that We had walked all this way for something that We normally ate at least four times a week, but I figured that He knew I liked it and so thought it was a safe option for Me.
When We walked inside the atmosphere was almost intoxicating.
The walls were a dark green with a few small paintings on it. The tables were a dark brown wood with white table cloths and a vase with a single red rose on every table.
As soon as We sat down a waitress came over to take Our order.
"What would You like to drink while You decide on Your order?" She asked, almost drooling on Gerard's shirt (not really. I made that up- but She was obviously a fan).
"I'll have a glass of coke, what about You Julie?"
"I'll have a glass of water thanks" I smiled at Her.
"Sure" She half growled and walked away.
"Fans don't really like it when I date" Gerard leaned in and whispered to Me.
Finally understanding I nodded and made a note not to take Her seriously.
"Here are Your drinks- are You ready to order?" She asked Gerard sweetly.
"I am, what about You Julie?"
"I think I need a little bit more time" I blushed, embarrassed that I was wasting time.
"Typical Julie" The waitress snorted.
"Excuse Me?" I asked politely.
She took a clipping from Her apron and placed it on the table.
There was a photo of Mikey in My arms that had obviously been snapped in the dog park and a headline that read "Julie Iero Gets Intimate With Mikey Way"
Oh crap.
"Mikey kissed You again" Gerard growled.
"Yes" I mumbled- what else could I say?
"I'm sorry- there is something I have to do" Gerard stood up and stormed out of the restaurant.
I sighed and stood up- only to have My wrist grabbed.
I turned to see a burly tanned Orlando Bloom wannabe on the other end of the hand that was now twisting My left wrist painfully.
"Why don't You sit back down and We can have a date together" He smiled- but His smile didn't reach His cold, hateful eyes.
"No thanks, I-" I didn't get to finish because Bloom Wannabe smashed His fist into My face.
"Sorry I didn't Hear You- what did You say?" He asked with a growling tone to His voice.
I looked Him straight in the eye.
"No" I growled and got punched in the gut.
"It's easier if You say yes- if You do I promise a good time here, and in the back of My car" He whispered into My ear.
"Keep beating Me- because unless You kill Me there is no way that I am doing anything with You" I growled and stared at His face with contempt.
"Fine. Don't have dinner with Me. I'll just leave You with a parting gift" He spat, and twisted My left arm until there was a snap.
I screamed in agony as My left arm became excruciatingly painful.
When I opened My eyes from the pain I saw that He had gone. Everyone was just staring at Me.
I wiped away My tears and walked out the door, noticing that the waitress that served Me looked as guilty as sin.
Clutching My arm to My chest I walked back to the bus alone- terrified of every car that drove passed Me.
Everyone was watching Gerard beat the crap out of Mikey who was already on the floor.
I looked at Frankie and immediately He started to clutch His left hand.
"Julie?" Frankie whispered.
"Frankie!" I half yelled.
Gerard stopped punching Mikey who sat up and looked in the direction that Frankie was staring in shock.
"Julie! what happened?" Frankie asked as He ran over to Me and held Me close.
"G-Gerard left Me in the restaurant after a waitress showed Him a photo of Mikey and I kissing and this creep came out of nowhere and wanted to have dinner with Me but I kept saying no and He did this to Me" I cried in His arms.
"Julie I-" Gerard stuttered as He came towards Me.
"Save it Gerard- if You hadn't been so obsessed with making Mikey pay for kissing Me this wouldn't have happened. You left Me alone! and for what? to beat Mikey up for doing something that You would do anyway?" I spat.
"Julie I'm sorry. I didn't mean to leave You alone" Gerard mumbled, ashamed of Himself.
I spat some blood out of My mouth and looked at Mikey on the ground Who was coughing up blood too and groaning.
"No- You did. You are just ashamed of the fact that I got hurt. Mikey and I need a doctor- and I want to talk to You tomorrow when I wake up" I strained as Frankie helped Me inside.
"Do You want anything?" Frankie asked as He lay Me down next to a sleeping Sadie.
"Just a hospital. And Lacey" I mumbled.
"Will someone tell Me what happened?" I asked Ray, Bob and Gerard (Mikey was inside being treated same as Julie, and Frankie wasn't leaving Her side) as I entered the waiting room of the hospital.
"We got to the restaurant and after We got Our drinks this waitress places a photo of Mikey kissing Julie on the table and I got so enraged that I stormed all the way back here alone to beat the crap out of Him"
"Meanwhile a creep tries to come onto Julie and when She repeatedly says no He punches Her a bunch of times and probably broke Her left arm" Ray added.
I sighed. Poor Julie.
"I'm sorry" Gerard mumbled.
"I'm sure deep down Julie feels just as horrible about this" I said as I waved a hand at His apology.
"Yeah. If She had picked either You or Mikey tonight wouldn't have happened" Bob whispered.
We all jumped as We heard Julie and Frankie scream.
"They feel the same pain?" I asked.
"Apparently. As soon as Julie arrived He started to clutch the same arm that She was as if it was in pain" Bob answered.
Julie and Frankie screamed again.
"She wants to talk to Me when She wakes up" Gerard mumbled again.
"She will be in a better state of mind then" I nodded.
What a mess.
"Did that hurt?" Mikey, who was lying in the next bed asked.
I nodded and cried a little bit.
Frankie was sitting in a chair that was next to My bed, still clutching His arm.
Mikey was trying to get Me to focus on something else other than the doctor that was setting My arm in a caste.
After He was done He left to tell the others the news.
"Frankie?" I asked.
"Yeah?" He half wheezed.
"Do You want to split My pain meds?" I asked and turned to look at Him.
"Um, no I think it'd be best if You took them- You need to be all mended when Mum and Dad see You for the first time"
"Scared You are going to be blamed for this" I nodded to My arm.
"Hell Yes" Frankie laughed.
"A broken wrist? than why is She feeling pain all the way down Her arm?" I asked, still fidgeting with My skirt in a panicky way.
"It's fairly common to experience that pain for people who have broken their wrists for the first time" the doctor explained to Me.
"How long will it take to heal?" I asked.
"Probably a few weeks. If You'll excuse Me" and then the doctor was gone.
"He has no bedside manner" Bob snorted.
"No good doctor does" I sighed and sat down in a spare chair.
"So what will We do?" Frankie asked as He came through the door.
"What do You mean?" Gerard asked.
"I doubt Frankie wants to take the blame for this when Julie meets Her parents for the first time" I answered as I thought about what They would do to Frankie if they found out about this incident.
"So We pick up a new gig- but where?" Bob asked.
"How about Australia?" I asked as I started dialing.
"Why not?" Ray asked back.
"It's perfect- thank you Lacey" Frankie smiled and placed His hand on My shoulder.
"No worries" I replied as My boss picked up on the other end.

DUBUQUE (KWWL) - Dubuque Police officer Kyle Cross has been reinstated after lying about a damaged tire.
In 2008 Cross was tired after he told his supervisor a tire on his squad car went flat. Later, he admitted he lied and said he hit a curb and damaged the tire and rim.
In December, the Dubuque Civil Service Commission reversed Cross's termination to a six-day suspension. The city appealed the decision in July.
Dubuque County District Judge Michael Shubatt said, while Cross' lie was "undeniably wrong and serious" he should remain on the force.
This coming after his attorney argued that former Police Chief Kim Wadding's firing of Cross was too harsh. Wadding fired Cross because his lying jeopardized his credibility.
Cross returned to the force on Tuesday. City officials say they won't appeal Shubatt's ruling.

I found it to be a deeply intelligent, modern (in a complimentary sense), charming, and very funny. All that Shakespeare intended (if a reading of the play can divine what Shakie wanted us to feel). It's an incredible achievement. It isn't dumbed down. It's not one of the most profound of Shakespeare's plays, so don't be surprised if it feels accessible. It always is. The director has done a great job. I want to see his take on A Comedy of Errors. Does anyone comment on the charming music too?

I also liked this version better than the Branagh one, mostly because the Hero and Claudio and Dogberry subplots worked as well as Beatrice and Benedick's, making the whole of the film more moving, less jarring. And as brilliant as Emma Thompson and Branagh were in their acting, the rest of the cast were so uneven. This version flowed with apparently effortless performances, and, yes, when Dogberry's part works (which it usually doesn't, I find), then it's a revelation. As it was here. Yes, the casual American voices are not the treat that Shakespearian delivery can be, but it was more effective and the poetry (and prose) come through anyway.

Yes I agree with A.O. Scott that this is a superb film. I enjoyed it more than anything I have seen since last summer. It is just extremely well done in every way -- acting, delivery of dialogue, the director playing with the dialogue in ways that work, lighting, scenery, music, facial expressions that are extremely evocative. I loved the 1993 production and I cannot make a fair comparison because I have not seen it in so long, but to my mind one needn't decide one is better than the other. They are rather different adaptations with different concepts. That this modern adaptation works so well it positively sings from start to finish makes it a triumph and a joy to watch.

I was hoping to enjoy it, on the basis of some of the reviews. Alas, no such luck. The story was clear. Performances charming, predictable. Sure it had some humor, obvious at times. But it lacked the complexity of character of all Shakespeare's plays. No one is all good or all bad. Even the evil Don Juan. And it lacked the beauty of the language.

I really enjoyed the film. It was a delightful, playful romance. Yes, I've read it before and I've seen it before too. But, I'm not a scholar or a "real" student of the Bard. And here's this off-beat, black and white film which tickles me with two stylized romances at once, as well as a whole slew of "good guys" and "bad guys" all doing their things. Some of the resolutions to the dilemmas are kind of silly and playful. And some of the romantic twists are turns are simplistic and fairytale-ish. But it never ceased to amuse and entertain and hold my interest, even though the English language of Elizabethan times takes a moment or two to adjust to. Best of all, Shakespeare and the current show combined to give us a rendition in which the depth of love between Beatrice and Benedick was touching and genuine. The foolishness was over and their love deeply felt. Seeing it in modern dress was a special treat and emphasized the timelessness - even the eternal nature of love. And of Shakespeare !!

By far, the best Dogberry (Nathan Fillion) ever seen in film or on stage. If the film "stands or falls" by this classic comic character, this version of Much Ado should "stand" as a great film. The dialogue between Nathan Fillion and Tom Lenk (Verges) is a marvel; brings clarity to Shakespeare's timeless comedic genius.
Wow, what an accomplishment for Director/Producer/Cast.

As for comments about "American" English pronunciation being variant from Shakespeare's and thus losing something - I'm not a linguist but believe it is generally understood that Elizabethan English pronunciation was unlike the modern British usage as reconstructed by academics. It may have been more like a combination modern 'American' and Irish but lets leave details to experts. So, the dislike of American pronunciation has to be seen as a preference and not as anything making the movie less authentic, less valid Shakespeare. It was delightful.

Simply brilliant—and also I loved the Kenneth Branagh, Emma Thompson version. But the sense of humor and style here make the Whedon version with his endearing cast, especially Amy Acker (Beatrice) and Alexis Denisof (Benedick) a flick not to miss. You will love Shakespeare more, if possible, and love the Whedon songs from the Bard as a bonus. Don't miss the credits for that reason.

The movie was charming, but Thompson and Branagh were incandescent as Beatrice and Benedict in the 1993 version. Also, the weird intrigues surrounding Hero and Claudio are always troubling for modern sensibilities, but even more so when everyone is dressed up in fancy dress.

Mine too was inadvertant. In most sites, you have to click on each circle until you get to the one you want. Here, apparently, you click on the fifth one (or fourth, etc.). I meant to give it a five rating. Whedon is a genius at what he does. I will know next time not to use the rating system on NYTimes, or at least request the site to give us a chance to edit our ratings for a few minutes of time.

The American accent just doesn't lend itself to Shakespeare's work. American actors don't know how to let the language flow. They always try to make the lines sound modern, and it doesn't ever really work.

To me it seems a lot of the musicality of Shakespeare's lines are lost. They were written for a particular pronunciation, a particular language--and the English of Southern California is not that language.
But it's done and there's nothing to do but see it. By way of reciprocity, though, how about having the Royal Shakespeare Company do "Glen Garry, Glen Ross" with British accents:
" 'Ere--bloody Shiva-r came down, told 'im: 'Sign the deal!" 'e wouldn't do it. An' the god Vishnu too! Naow!--SOD YOU, JOHN!-- I am WAIT-in' on the NE-EW LEADS!"

"Their union is threatened by the scheming of Don John (Sean Maher)..." I thoroughly loved the 1993 "Much Ado" EXCEPT when Keanu Reeves was "acting" in the Don John character.
"Dangerous Liaisons" was also a wonderful rich movie...but completely ruined by Keanu Reeves. Hopefully we will never see Keanu again..except for his garage band that he tours with. I can only imagine that some producer thought that Reeves' name would bring in the 18-29 set as they probably had never heard of John Malkovich, Kenneth Branagh, or Emma Thompson. sigh

I liked Whedon's film very much when I saw it in Toronto last September. Whedon and the actors have succeeded in presenting a very clear version of the play which is often funny and charming. And the black and white cinematography is lovely. But I don't see how doing the play in modern dress makes it more appealing than the Branagh version and I don't think anyone in this new version reaches the level of Kenneth Branagh's or Emma Thompson's acting or facility with Shakespearean language. I just saw a wonderful live production of the play in NYC with Jonathan Cake in the lead. What's missing in the Whedon version is some of the darkness and cruelty of the original play.

Often in adaptations of Shakespeare, the movie gets caught up in the fact that they are doing Shakespeare. Shakespeare movies become extravagant and overacted, focusing more on some A-list actor's attempt at Hamlet or Romeo. Joss Whedon's Shakespeare is focused on the story, the characters, and does not get caught up in self importance.

The Dirt Devil KONE - Fashionable, yes, but Functional?
Did you ever visit the handheld vacuum section at your local appliances store and turn away disappointed that there just wasn't anything that seemed pretty enough to take home? A handheld vacuum doesn't need to look like a plastic funnel like many models actually do. Instead, they could be like the Karim Rashid-designed Dirt Devil KONE - a fashionable looking number in a vacuum cleaner if ever there was one. One reason they've made it look the way it does, like a pyramid or a cone is, they want you to be able to place it right there in any room, as a centerpiece - it'll help it be accessible anytime you need it.
No more do you have to worry about having the functional bits around your living room take away from your decor, and the ambience of your living room. Any time you notice a bit of pet hair or crumbs dropped on the carpet, your Dirt Devil KONE is ever-ready to be picked up to get the offending litter out of the way. Of course, the model comes with a very small dust cup - it isn't meant for any heavy-duty cleaning. But that doesn't have to get in the way. The first time you pick up your KONE, you'll be surprised by how substantial it feels for its size. The smooth plastic body does sacrifice functionality for form though, which could get in the way a bit. But when you see how gorgeous it does look, you can readily allow for the sacrifice.
So how do you use it? It comes with no tools, attachments or brushes of any kind to go with it. It sucks in stuff by the tip, powered by - get this - an 8 volt motor. Of course it has to be that low powered, powered by a rechargeable battery as it is. Consider it a fun shaped dustpan that helps you get things out of the way the way a brush would. It just doesn't have to look unfashionable or cumbersome like a brush and dustpan is all.
A little annoyance with the KONE is that the dirt is supposed to go in through a series of air intakes, and not just one. This means that when the vacuum sucks in air, the air often bounces off the grid, and comes back to blow the dust around. They didn't have to do this of course, but it kept the unit looking fashionable. Which of course, is important with a device of this nature.
Is the Dirt Devil KONE the best hand vacuum around? That depends on what you're looking for. It's great if you want to do is to pick up a few crumbs or lint. For functionality greater than that, you'll probably have to look elsewhere.

Digital Raster Graphics
A Digital Raster Graphic (DRG) is a raster image of a published map, made by scanning a published paper map on a high-resolution scanner. The raster image is georeferenced and fit to the Universal Transverse Mercator (UTM) or a State Plane coordinate system. The colors are standardized to remove scanner limitations and artifacts.
The size of the average data set is about eight megabytes in Tagged Image File Format (TIFF) with PackBits compression. TVA DRGs are provided only in TIFF 5.0 or TIFF 6.0 files, or both. They are not available as GeoTiff files. DRGs can be easily combined with other digital cartographic products such as digital elevation models (DEM) and digital orthophoto quadrangles (DOQ).
The published maps are available on CD-ROM in blocks of 67 files that cover a one-degree block of latitude and longitude (see Status Map). DRGs are available upon request. Please contact the Map Store for prices and availability.
Customized formats, including choice of map projection, datum, and border format, can be developed upon request.
warning and limitation
This familiarity is necessary for two reasons:
Most applications that support the display of TIFF images are compatible with TVA DRGs. However, because of the large file sizes (5-20 mb) and the spatial coordinate information stored in each TIFF header, TVA cannot guarantee this compatibility.
Do not assume that any particular software package is compatible with TVA DRGs unless it has been tested with at least one of our DRG products.
The TVA Map Store will provide potential customers who wish to test any particular software package for TVA DRG compatibility with a sample DRG upon request. The sample is available for free download from the TVA corporate FTP server. Contact the TVA Map Store for details.
Multiple discs may be required in some cases to contain the data of a single cell. In cases where multiple discs are used, the data will be broken into northern and southern portions of the 1- by 1-degree cells. These portions will be stored on separate discs, designated N and S respectively.
of coverage
TVA will provide a TVA DRG Project map free of charge. This small-format map shows the area of coverage for the entire project and individual DRG block numbers used for placing orders.
The TVA DRG Project map is available from the TVA Map Store. DRGs for other parts of the United States are available from the US Geological Survey (USGS).

Siberian producer/singer Nina Kraviz is in North America this week and next surrounding her appearance at Movement Electronic Music Festival, which goes down in Detroit this weekend. While she's here, she'll play a NYC show on June 2 at a TBA location. The show is in celebration of Blkmarket's 6th anniversary and also includes Aril Brikha, Kollektiv Turmstrasse, and Talmur & Fahad. RSVP to firstname.lastname@example.com for more info and location, which will be announced the day of the event, and pick up tickets at Resident Advisor. The flier for this show is below. Nina will return to North America in the fall for more dates including Seattle's Decibel Festival with Actress, John Talabot, Maria Minerva, Matthew Dear, Dam-Funk, Julianna Barwick, Ariel Pink and more.
Nina released her self titled debut LP earlier this year via Rekids. It's a real moody, downtempo album that might sound a little better in your headphones on your walk home from the club than playing through the PA while you're there. The beats are well versed in deep house and minimal techno but with greater attention on the low frequencies of the UK bass scene than other recent deep house purveyors like Blondes and Teengirl Fantasy.
Though her production is impressive, the unquestionable standouts of the album are the tracks that prominently feature her voice. The reverb-washed vocals of album opener "Walking in the Night" show Nina sounding like a hushed Kate Bush. Whereas on tracks like "Choices" or "Love Or Go," she sings in a more chopped up fashion, emulating producers who rely solely on sampling the voices of others, in a manner we've seen thrive on everything from "Everything In Its Right Place" to "The Wilhelm Scream."
Nina released her second single from the album, "Aus," this week, which features three different remixes of the track in addition to the album version. Stream all four of those below, in addition to the album's first single, "Ghetto Kraviz," and two of its remixes. Nina also dropped an Essential Mix earlier this month. You can stream that below too.
Those streams, flier for the NYC show, and a list of all dates are below.

Lindstrom releasing remixes 12", touring (dates); Movement Fest & Mutek coming soon (lineups); Apparat adds opener (win tix)
Lindstrom will be releasing a 12" of remixes from his Six Cups of Rebel LP on June 25 with remixes from Oneohtrix Point Never (who plays Ecstatic Summer), Ariel Pink's Haunted Graffiti, and Mark McGuire (of Emeralds). Have a listen to Oneohtrix Point Never's take on "Call Me Anytime" below.
Lindstrom is currently on a tour which brings him to NYC on Friday (5/25) for the previously discussed Webster Hall show with Simian Mobile Disco (tickets). That tour will also bring him to Detroit's Movement Electronic Music Festival this weekend where he'll play alongside Public Enemy, Actress, SBTRKT, Major Lazer, Gold Panda, Nina Kraviz, Matias Aguayo, FaltyDL, AraabMUZIK and more. Tickets for the fest are on sale now. The full lineup is listed below.
Speaking of electronic music festivals, Mutek goes down in Montreal from May 30 - June 3. The Mutek lineup includes Kode9, Nicolas Jaar, Clark, Blondes, Apparat, Shlohmo, Shackleton, Stephen O'Malley & Tim Hecker, Biosphere & Lustmord, and more. The full lineup is listed below.
In related news, as mentioned, Apparat will come to NYC after Mutek for a show at Gramercy Theater on May 31. It's since been announced that Sleepyhead will open that show. Tickets for that show are still available and we're also giving away a pair. Contest details below, along with a list of all dates, song stream, and those festival lineups.

"Can't make it to Detroit this year? Well, here's something to console you: the entire official festival will be streamed online via Resident Advisor.Sasquatch will be streaming this weekend too.
With the help of media players powered by Awdio, the sounds of the iconic electronic music festival will be broadcast live around the world. Streams run from noon until midnight each day, and there will be separate streams for all five stages, so you can hear every last moment of the action at Hart Plaza, from DJ Harvey's opening set on Saturday to Flying Lotus's closer on Monday. Have a look at the festival's schedule to find out when everyone's playing (and remember to adjust for Detroit local time). The players will be embedded on the event listings [here] once the festival gets started."

Logitech G300 Gaming Mouse Review (Hardware, PC)
Posted by Jeff Lindsey (Piso_mojado), Dec 08, 2011 01:52
If there is one company the manufactures computer mice that has stood the test of time, it is Logitech. I can not honestly say that I don't remember a time when my family has not had at least one piece of Logitech hardware hooked up to our computer. Whether it was a keyboard, trackball, ball mouse, microphone, or even my beloved first laser mouse, Logitech was always there for me. Not only do they make products of incredibly quality, but when something goes wrong they have been there with even better customer support.
Needless to say, when the box showed up containing the Logitech G300 Gaming Mouse, I was excited. I immediately unpacked this mouse, unplugged my currently installed G500 and put the G300 through every test imaginable. Once again, Logitech has delivered another winner.
Logitech G300 Gaming Mouse Design and Size
Both classy and sleek,
This mouse may not be the best for gamers with large hands or palm grip style.
Being a person with large hands, one might wonder how exactly they are supposed to grasp it.
The G300 is quite comfortable for anyone who plays with a finger tip style grip. Claw grip can be achieved, but requires a little hand maneuvering to find that comfortable sweet spot. Sadly, those who play with a palm grip style will have trouble finding enough mouse on which to rest their hand.
Overall, this mouse is solid. It feels remarkably sturdy and durable. All of the buttons have a life of over 10 million clicks, so you know that the G300 was built to last. To top it all off, the rubberized thumb and pinkie grips provide a superior no-slip grip that will keep even the sweatiest of hands firmly clasped to it.
Logitech G300 Gaming Mouse Features and Specs
- Nine programmable controls
- Onboard Memory Profiles
- Use-configurable lighting
- Configuration software
- Ambidextrous shape
- 2500 dpi sensor
- 1 millisecond report rate
- Built for 10 million clicks

Michael & Marcus DuggarSensing that the world needed a solid dose of adorableness, Anna Duggar posted a photo of her new baby and his big brother to her Twitter account recently. In the pic, "big boy" Michael is looking lovingly at his newborn sibling, baby Marcus, while baby Marcus, well, just looks like a baby.
Anna captioned the photo "Brother time!", and oof, if this doesn't make your ovaries ache, not sure what will. What a sweet little family! Thanks for sharing, Anna! And please, keep 'em coming!
Do you have sweet photos of your "big" and "little" kids together?
Image via Anna Duggar/Twitter
I have so many of my two boys together...but right now my profile pic is my fave...
How will this be a "new" trend? I have probably six pictures of my babies just like this. lol.
I have a pic of all 3 of my girls the day after I had the youngest. My brother bought the older 2 matching dresses, and they are wearing them and holding the youngest in the picture. Youngest is now 5 1/2. and wears the same dress my oldest wore in that pic :)
Seriously Kaerae!!!! =(
@Kaerae, Hahaha! I was going to comment the same exact thing. Too funny. Yes, this new trend will be everywhere. Two kids? One photo? Get outta here! Who could have thought of something sooo brilliant???!! Also, very cute babies. I love the Duggars.
new trend? Damn hard to believe no one has ever had these types of pics before. hmmm I guess the millions of other parents who have pics just like this one don't count?

Young Panthers Look To Continue Winning Ways In 2013
Aug 20, 2013
MILWAUKEE - Heading into the 2012 season, there were plenty of questions surrounding the University of Wisconsin-Milwaukee women's soccer program. The team graduated three of its top-10 goal scores in program history, including perennial All-American Sarah Hagen, who finished her four-year career as one of the top scorers in NCAA Division-I history. In addition to the new faces on the field, the Panthers also had a new face on the sideline in head coach Greg Henschel.
The result? UWM answered all of those questions without skipping much of a beat, winning its 13th-consecutive Horizon League Championship and earning its fifth-straight berth to the NCAA Tournament.
"We had a great group of seniors last year and we were able to continue the great culture of Milwaukee women's soccer," Henschel said. "I was glad that we were able to keep the conference title streak alive. I know that is something on our players' mind and that's one of our goals again this year, obviously."
With an impressive first year under his belt, Henschel is excited to get back on the field and pick things up right where he left off last year.
Milwaukee again will have to deal with some key loses due to graduation. For the second-straight year the Panthers will move on without the Horizon League Player of the Year. Helen Steinhauser was a stalwart in the midfield and netted back-to-back game winners for UWM during conference play to help propel the team to another league title. Also departing from last year's squad are; keeper Jamie Forbes, who played every minute in goal last season, a solid midfielder in Demi Price and a fifth-year senior in Sammy Vovos who scored four goals last year after missing two seasons from injuries.
Henschel knows the loss of those seniors will be felt but is confident this year's team will fill those holes and push for another conference championship.
"The team is doing a fantastic job and working hard, and I feel really good about the direction we're heading and the effort to pursue our goal to retain the Horizon League title," Henschel said. "As long as we work as hard as we can, when it's time to relax and play I think we will represent Panther soccer really well, no matter what the outcome of the season is. I think we'll represent the Panther foundation, the women's soccer foundation and this program's history really well this year."
With four vacated spots up for grabs, there will be a healthy competition for who will step up. Taking aim to replace those seniors' roles will be quite a few freshmen, thirteen of them to be exact.
"It's no secret that we're a young team this year. We have 13 freshmen out of 27 players," Henschel said. "The newcomers I think are really moving forward quickly. We need the young players to catch up and aspire to what our veteran players bring to the field and we all need to get to the level our opponents bring to the field. I like where everyone is headed and I think we're moving in a good direction."
Now, the 2013 group is out to make its own mark. All-Horizon League First-Team member Kelly Lewers scored three times last year and assisted on six others and figures to be even stronger heading into just her junior year.
"Kelly has returned really fit this year and I'm really excited about her potential," Henschel said. "She had a great spring and it was a tough year on her I think last fall. She had an injury in the early part of last season that really had a devastating effect on our front line. She's shown a lot of strength in sticking to it and just continuing to work really, really hard and I'm excited about her potential this year."
Classmate and fellow forward Krissy Dorre was also honored by the league at the end of last season, earning second-team honors after leading the conference in goals (seven) and points (17). Not bad for someone who missed the first five games of the season due to injury.
Dorre had a flare for the dramatic, as well, registering the game-winner three times last year. The first came when she scored twice in a win over in-state rival Green Bay. The next two came on even bigger stages, finding the back of the net in double overtime of both Horizon League Tournament games. That marks just the 16th time a Panther has scored game-winning goals in back-to-back games, but Dorre becomes the first to do so in overtime or double-overtime contests.
"Krissy is going to be a big part of this group," Henschel said. "I think everyone is aware of her potential to compete and score goals for us and we're looking forward to seeing her continue to strive for that potential."
Melanie Coderre is the lone senior figuring to see minutes at the forward position. The fourth-year player will provide some balance and leadership to the group. After scoring 96 goals as a prep standout in Illinois, she looks to finish her career on a high note.
Junior Morgan LaPlant can play both forward and midfield, tallying two goals on just 10 shots as a freshman. The 2011 Gatorade Wisconsin Player of the Year adds a burst of speed and figures to be in the mix this year.
Also joining the attack is a group of newcomers who will look to make an immediate impact. Maria Stephans and Taylor Swittel both redshirted last year and should push for time. Callie O'Donnell also returns after appearing in six games as a freshman a season ago, making one start and assisting once.
"Maria joins the forward group this year. We're really looking to have her make an impact, though she might find herself in the midfield, as well. I think she's on a great path," Henschel said. "In addition to that, Mel Coderre is in her senior year in our front line and we'll look to her to provide some leadership, passion and commitment in what she does up there. And we've got a couple young players; we're looking at Taylor Swittel for that front line and Callie O'Donnell has given us a good offensive push right behind her. So, hopefully offensively we'll find some goals this season."
"The competition at midfield is probably just something everyone is going to have to come to terms with. The level of competition in that group is so high, everyone will have to be willing to take that challenge on in the midfield and raise their game to find minutes," Henschel said. "Bottom line, finding minutes is going to be a real dog fight in there and I think that is a strength of our group. I look forward to seeing our players compete for their time and I think it will result in a positive and healthy transition onto the match field from our training setting."
Kelsey Holbert is one of the returning leaders for Milwaukee's midfield group. The junior is coming off a first-team all-league season where she started all 18 games. In fact, Holbert has now started in 39 of her 40 games as a Panther after an impressive freshman campaign earned her a spot on the league all-newcomer team. Her three goals and five assists out of the midfield were key for UWM's championship run last year, as twice she helped set up the game winner.
Senior Sara Stern will also help anchor the group. The lone senior has found a home in the middle of the field of late after playing up top and scoring three times as a freshman before moving defense as a sophomore. She logged the majority of her minutes at midfield last season, tallying three assists in 17 games.
The last remaining upperclassman in the middle is Vienna Behnke. The junior scored the first goal of the season for Milwaukee a year ago in what proved to be the game-winner over St. Bonaventure. Behnke started 14 total games last year and is likely to be a key factor going forward.
In addition to those three come a host of underclassmen, all of which could see playing time. Emma Worthington saw the field 11 times last year and looked more comfortable as the season wore on. Now a sophomore, Worthington looks to play more of a factor with another year under her belt.
Sky Perna is in the mix after starting twice and playing in 10 matches last year, though she could split time on the defensive side of the ball, as well.
Emma Fatla comes from area powerhouse Grafton where she helped lead her team to the state semifinals her final two years after a runner-up showing as a prep sophomore. After redshirting last year, Fatla looks to bring her soccer skills to the forefront this year.
Abbey Hoerschner, Kelly Manski and Anny West will also compete for time on the field in the deep group. Hoerschner was starting to make an impact last year before an injury forced her to receive a medical redshirt. Manski and West combined to help their high school squads to three state titles between the two of them and look to carry their prep success to the college game.
"We've got some great midfielders," Henschel said. "Between the Sara Sterns and Kelsey Holberts and Emma always gives us a great effort. There are a couple of veteran, older midfielders, but there are some other newcomers coming up. We're really excited about what this group brings to the table."
Senior Hannah Kaul started all 18 games for Milwaukee last year, including playing every minute in 17 of those matches. The Panthers will rely on her veteran leadership and experience this year to help bolster the back line, as she played a key role in seven shutouts last year.
Junior Amy Kauffung played a variety of roles for UWM last season but found herself as part of the back line at season's end, earning All-Horizon League Second-Team honors along the way. She registered two goals and one assist before making the switch to defense where she was part of five shutouts. Playing all but 57 minutes on the season a year ago, Kauffung will be another important piece to the Milwaukee defensive puzzle this season.
Caity Bestwina is the final returning member for this group. The junior started the first 12 games of the season last year before being sidelined with an injury. She battled through, however, returning off the bench in the league tournament and starting in the NCAA Tournament game against Notre Dame.
"That back line, we feel good about that group," Henschel said. "It is a little bit more upperclassmen-established back there, so hopefully some of that veteran leadership and experience will help the young players in between and in front of them play well and we'll start gaining more and more confidence and believing in each other."
Some of the younger players Henschel hopes to see step up include Tatum Smith, Alleina Szydlowski, Rachael Van Keulen and Ashley Burkhardt.
Smith is a strong defender from California. She brings solid technique and real toughness and figures to play a key role this year. Szydlowski is a taller back that also could play a significant role for Milwaukee in 2013 and is joined by Van Keulen as a redshirt from last season.
Burkhardt comes to Milwaukee after a year at UW-Eau Claire. She started all 19 games for the Blugolds as a true freshman in 2012 and helped UWEC to a second-place showing in its conference.
"Between Amy, Hannah and Caity, that's a great three back there. Hopefully Alleina will get cleared (from injury) and Tatum will continue on the positive path that she's on," Henschel said. "We've got some depth back there as well this year. Rachael Van Keulen, Ashley Burkhardt, we've played Sky in the back, so we've got a nice group of players and some depth there on the back line to hopefully get everyone comfortable and feel confident in the rest of the season."
"The goalkeeping position is starting to close I think, but it has been a wide-open position since last year," Henschel said. "Jamie Forbes played every minute of every game for us last year. Jamie was a fantastic goalkeeper and had a great career here so we're excited about the open competition between Tailor Roscoe and Paige Lincicum and Natalie Fettinger. Hopefully `Nat' will provide us some good leadership and Paige and Tailor will grab on to some of that and keep picking up those little moments as young goalkeepers."
Fettinger is the only current Panther to play collegiately between the posts, starting once and playing in two games as a freshman. Now a junior, she hopes will compete for the starting job and bring valuable experience to the group.
Lincicum is a redshirt freshman that hails from Cary, Ill. where she helped her team to a conference title as a senior, posting seven shutouts that season. Lincicum did start in an exhibition match against Michigan State last season and will be in the running for the starting nod this season.
Roscoe also comes off a redshirt freshman year after starting all four years at Kattering High School, where she holds each of her school's single-season goalkeeping records.

When's the Last Time You Washed Your Bra?
We recently shared our grooming secrets (or lack thereof), with you. We asked our staffers to tell when the last time they tweezed or waxed their eyebrows.
Today, we're asking... WHEN'S THE LAST TIME YOU.... WASHED YOUR BRA? We opened up the question to our community.
NC Mom said: "Every night, so that I have a fresh one for the next morning!" While, Tonya said: "If the dog would refrain from eating them, I'd probably be able to rotate them/wash them a lot more than what I do, but I think I only have three left at this point and laundry piled up to the rafters."
Here's what our staffers had to say:
|I'd guess about once a month, if that? I alternate between two (sometimes swapping in the strapless) in my rotation. Scary!
|I don't remember. I tend to put it in the wash and then pull it out the next day. Meaning: I put it in the laundry basket then pull it out before washing it.
|I wash my bras all the time I have about six in rotation. The only problem is I don't hand wash them AND I put them in the dryer -- so most of them are in tatters -- I am constantly replacing bras. I believe over my lifetime I have spent hundreds of thousands of dollars on bras -- and I don't even buy expensive ones!
|I probably do it like once a month or whenever I feel like they're not clean when I wear them.
|I rotate about five bras and they probably get washed about once every two weeks. So that means that I wear them like two - three times and then they get washed.
|It's embarrassing but I have two bras (that fit me well) in my rotation. I probably wash them once a month. Maybe... By hand though, and hang them out to dry. Still, that's probably pretty gross.
|Maybe a few days ago. I have three or four in rotation and I just wash them whenever my hubby does the laundry.
|Eek. Is it bad that it's only once a week?
|Three years. Since my mastectomy/reconstruction, I haven't worn one.
Talk about perks!
So how often should we be washing our bras? Well, according to Brawise.com (a website dedicated to all things bra), women should wash their bras every other time they wear them. Depending on the fabric and color of the bra, this schedule changes with different pieces. When it comes to wash and care, the experts at Victoria Secret recommend hand washing your bra in cold water with a lingerie-safe detergent. They also believe air drying is the best possible way to keep your bras beautiful. Machine drying can only harm your bra's delicate details.

I probably wash my bra every couple of weeks and while it is in the dirty clothes i have another fav bra that I put on!
EWWWW !!! I wash mine after every wear, same as my underware and socks. I have a drawer full of bras so there is no need for me to wear a dirty bra ever.
I only have 2 bras and one of them gets washed when I do laundry, which is 3 times a week. So I'd say they are both clean at the same time at least once a week. Who knows. Ha.
for moms who are breast feeding… have to get a breast pad and… then just change the pad dont need to change bra too often… can use watshable pads or other types if dont want to wash….
wow, I'd have never thought this would be up for any kind of reading. I thought I was the only one who did this. I have 4-5 favorites and if I know I did not sweat in them then I wear it again the next day. not more than two days though. And, ONLY if I didn't do any kind of sweating.
Out of 4 bras-I wash mine once- twice a week and will wear the same one only twice. I had no idea women went so long without washing them?? Interesting poll.
I only wear a bra once then it goes in the laundry. I'm a sweatty gal though!
I think it's crazy to see that people wear them only once or twice then wash them.
I wash mine maybe once a month, and i only have 2.
I wash ~everything~ after only wearing it once. I have a very sensitive nose. Same goes for everyone else in the house.
after reading the article and the comments, it does not impress me that women dont wash their bras that often. i wash mine after 2 or 3 days if i didnt sweat. What i find interesting is that there are a lot of women who only own 2 bras! why is that????
I have 7 bras, wear them once and wash all 7 on laundry day in the sink with woolite. If you take good care of your bras they can last for years. Do not put them in the washing machine…I learned the hard way and ruined a very expensive bra.
If you are in uncomfortable position and have no money to move out from that, you will have to receive the loan. Because it would aid you for sure. I take short term loan every year and feel fine because of this.

This duo - Reid Comstock and James Marshall - emailed me about their long-distance collaboration project that has birthed what they deem "cosmic surf-rock." They add that they're "sort of a bizarre combination of Pet Sounds-era Beach Boys and anything from the Elephant 6 collective" which, duh, are as irresistable as influences to me as honey to a fly.

Anonymous said: Do you have the link to the original blood type comics?
This is the official site of the webtoon
The art of analysing people's personalities by blood type still amazes me nowadays.
But in no way it is a scientific proven fact nor a way of showing the superiority of a particular blood type over the other.
It is just amazing how we can relate to their behaviors to past events and anecdotes we have.
This is my first blog project, I hope you guys enjoy it.
If you want to know about the stereotype personalities by blood, I invite you to go to archives and check the first four posts.
And just in case you are wondering, I am not the artist of the comics, just a huge fan that wants to translate them into english so more people can read them. The name of the author is Park Dong Seon.

FHWA Acceptance Letters for Category II Work Zone Devices
View list of all FHWA Acceptance Letters covering Work Zone Devices starting with those most recently posted.
The new search feature for crashworthy work zone traffic control devices allows you to zero in more quickly on the acceptance letter or letters that include the hardware you are interested in. Every FHWA Acceptance Letter has been reviewed for the following information, and the appropriate keywords have been associated with each Acceptance Letter:
To sort these letters to find those associated with the keywords you are interested in you may choose the Keyword Table method, or the Dropdown Menu method.
If you choose the Keyword Table method you will see five tables showing all the keywords in the categories listed above. Click on any keyword of interest. The program will then sort out those letters associated with your keyword of interest, and present you with a revised set of tables.
For example, if you are interested in x-footprint sign stands that have been crash tested with plywood signs, begin by clicking on "X-Footprint Sign" in the "Type of Device" table. You will then see that the keywords now available in the tables has been reduced. Only those letters that include x footprint signs are sorted. Click on "Plywood" in the "Sign Substrate or Barricade Rail" table and you will see the short list of Acceptance Letters that cover X-Footprint Signs and Plywood Sign Substrates. Please note that this does not necessarily mean that all those letters cover plywood signs mounted on x-footprint sign stands. The letters may deal with tripod stands that support plywood signs and x-footprint stands supporting roll-up signs. You will have to review the content of the letter to ensure that the hardware meets your needs.
If you choose the Dropdown Menu method, you may select keywords from any or all of the menus, then click "Search by Keyword" to get the list of letters that meet all of your criteria. If you get "No records meet your search criteria" as a response, change one or more of the Dropdown Menus to "All" and try again.

Planning to study abroad? Points you need to consider.
In the last few years, the number of students looking to study abroad has increased manifold. If you are considering USA as an option, your chances of scoring well professionally are bright. According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, 39,000 jobs were added to the business and professional services industry from March through April, 2008.
Though the major attraction for studying abroad is a better job scenario, there are many other reasons that encourage students to explore overseas education options. An overseas experience helps in your personal enrichment and development. It helps you develop cross-cultural skills and knowledge needed to enhance your global competitiveness. The list of benefits of studying abroad is endless, but before you plan to enrich yourself with an overseas experience, you need to plan your study abroad options in detail and well in advance. Let us look at some of the key aspects that will help you to plan and make most of your study abroad programme.
How to choose the right education programme and destination?
What to study and where to study are perhaps the most difficult questions to answer. It is the most critical decision that will shape your career. You need to research and shortlist various study options available to you. The following questions will help you to research and analyze information and take a better decision.
- Is the programme going to add substantial value to your career?
- Do you have the fundamental aptitude for the course?
- Is the course you have chosen well recognized by the industry?
- What are the chances of getting a good job in India or abroad after you get your certificates?
- Does your choice of study programme allow you to get a job in the country you plan to study?
- Is the programme offered in English ?
It is a good idea to do some basic research on your own, like talking to your peers, attending study abroad fairs, interacting with college representatives and alumni, so that yours is a well thought out decision.
After you decide on the right programme, you can go ahead and explore the countries that offer quality education in your area of interest. If needed, take professional help; speak to the consultants and counsellors , experts in study abroad programmes. Some questions that can help you decide are given below:
- Is the programme offered by your choice of institutions is accredited or recognized globally?
- Does the cost of study match your budget?
- Does the college allow you to work part time to fund your education?
- Does the country you plan to go allow you to work there after completing the course?
- What is the duration of the course?
- What are the living expenses and cost of study?
Research and collect as much information as you can. Speak to alumni of the programme or institution, take professional counselling, and then decide your study programme and institution.
Getting admission in a university abroad
Once you decide on the study programme and the country you can go ahead and apply to the institutions that offer your preferred education programme. Getting admission in a foreign university or institution is not an easy job, but you can make it easier if you plan in advance and focus on the key aspects of the general admission requirements and procedures. The general admission requirements to study abroad are:
- A good academic record,
- Your scores in standardized tests such as GMAT, GRE, SAT, and TOEFL . These play a significant role in your selection for a specific programme,
- Your statement of purpose and letters of recommendation are important as well. Statement of Purpose is one of the most important components of the application procedure. It comprises your personal details; factors that have defined your career path so far and your aspirations.
- Your Grade Point Average (GPA),
- Your work experience and summer work experience,
- Degree you intend to work towards Ph.D./MS.
- Personal qualities, motivation, reliability, sincerity, maturity, integrity, communication skills
- The degree of your participation in extracurricular activities
Studying abroad: Know about the country
Knowledge about the destination country is always helpful in adjusting to the new environment and culture. During your stay abroad, initially you may be confronted with some difficulties, such as problems in adjusting with new culture and society. Some of you may also face difficulty in understanding the accent or language, but, if you prepare yourself in advance and learn about the culture and people of the country you can overcome these problems in no time.
You must consider your suitability to the course and colleges and your adaptability to the culture of the country. You should gather as much information as possible about the country and its education system. Be ready to adapt to the change in environment, style of education, language, food and your routine life in the country you plan to study in. Be prepared to adjust to the cultural differences, bouts of homesickness, and the pressure of studies. If you plan to go to a country where English is not commonly spoken, try to learn the native language before you leave. This will help you in adapting to the new culture and environment.
Funding your study abroad programme
Studying abroad often requires financial assistance for extra expenses such as travel, accommodations and materials. Though studying abroad is comparatively expensive, you can reduce your expenses to an extent. A number of universities and colleges offer financial aid in the form of scholarships , tuition fees waivers and part-time work options. However scholarships are usually numbered. It is recommended that you start the search for aids early, if you want to seek admission to a program that is not within your budget. Many countries like the UK and Australia allow you to work part time on your study visa. You can work part time to fund your tuition fees.
You can also look out for an education loan for studying abroad . Many public sector banks offer loans up to Rs. 15,00000 for studying abroad.
Making the most of your stay abroad
You plan to invest substantially in your study abroad, so make the most of your stay abroad. Some countries like UK and Australia may allow you to work there for 1-2 years after you complete the course. If you get the opportunity, make most out of it. Meet people in your industry, network with alumni of your institution and gain as much global and cross cultural exposure as possible. This will boost your career tremendously.

Project Picasso
Project Picasso is a Volunteer run Art Enrichment Program, overseen by hospital staff including support from Child Life, Therapy Services and the Art Therapy Program. The program currently operates on the Hematology/Oncology Unit once or twice a week and has expanded to the Neurorehabilitation Unit, typically twice each month. Patients are invited to attend on their respective units and the activity offered hopes to achieve the following goals, which may include, but are not limited to:
- Provide social opportunities for patients to interact with each other, with volunteers and with staff
- Provide exposure to new art techniques, activities, and artists throughout history
- Providing patients with the opportunity for expression
- Developing and strengthening self-esteem
- Art production is a healthy way to release energy
The art activities offered are intended to build on the strengths and skills of the individual patients. In addition, the age and developmental level of each patient is always taken into consideration. The creative process during Project Picasso is as important, if not more so, than the art product. Project Picasso Volunteers and Staff assisting in the program are encouraged to compliment the efforts of the individual; however, criticism and technical achievement are discouraged and detrimental to the goals of the program.
Project Picasso began at St. Louis Children's Hospital in the spring of 2007 as a collaboration between Washington University undergraduate students and St. Louis Children's Hospital's Art Therapy Program. These and other students and individuals who are interested in organizing and leading hospital patients in art enrichment activities go through the hospital's volunteer orientation program and adhere to our volunteer policies and procedures.
For more information about Project Picasso, or interest in getting more involved, please contact Art Therapist, Julie Gant at 314.454.2758 or email at firstname.lastname@example.com

What The Papers Say - 24 April
Wednesday's reports suggest Gibson could be fit to face Fulham.
The views on this page are taken from the local and national media and do not necessarily reflect the views of Everton.
Wednesday's newspapers have started to look ahead to Everton's weekend match with Fulham at Goodison Park.
The Liverpool Echo is reporting that Darron Gibson should be fit enough to take his place in midfield against the Cottagers despite limping off at half-time during last Saturday's 1-0 defeat to Sunderland. The article also references the fact that Gibson may require surgery in the summer to cure a troublesome thigh complaint.
Also in the Echo is an interview with Tim Howard, who says that the players can't feel sorry for themselves following the reverse at the Stadium of Light. The American also believes Dimitar Berbatov is a player Everton will need to keep close tabs on when they entertain Fulham in three days' time.
In the national newspapers, the Daily Mirror is linking Leighton Baines with a close-season transfer to Manchester United as the newly-crowned Champions look to stay ahead of their rivals with a summer spending spree.

In the Android app, when adding an new recipe the recipies are presented newest first which I find convenient, When I choose a recipe to add to a meal, though, the default sort order is oldest first which is much less convenient. I can also choose alphabetic in either direction but these would not be any more convenient.
Could we have the ability to have the ,date sort in reverse order too, please?

I think it would be great to tag the recipes or put them in folders so finding the right one would be a snap. Kid-friendly, date-night, vegetarian, light enough for desert. The list could go on and on. This would also help with weekly menu planning and grocery shopping.

Trying to stay on the subject of recipes. How about being able to copy and paste to recipes. I just tried it and was sad because it doesn't work.
