Hello there fellow Tropers! I am An Cat Dubhnote , but you can call me Shunranote (pronounced �SHEWN-rah�). I was born on July 21, 1991, in Rishon leTsiyon, Israel; lived in Tel-Aviv till I was one; then in Hadera till I was 12note ; and currently residing in Emeq-Hefer. I speak Hebrew and English as my mother tongues, and I speak a plethora of other languages in varying levels (most notably Japanese and Icelandic). I�m a former military translator (currently a freelance one, as well as a freelance poet on commission), and currently a student of linguistics and East Asian studies in Tel-Aviv University. I�ve written a lot of poetry and short stories in several languages, but haven�t published any of themnote ; I hope to become a published author one day, though. I�ve written two articles so far on TVT: Asfour and Summer Celebration, and you can often see me adding something about Israeli media or RL events on various articles, just gently brushing against the Rule of Cautious Editing Judgment. More about me on my blog, where you can read some of my poetry and a bit of my prose.
Tropes that apply to me:

One ticket to Zombie 5k run
Franklin D. Roosevelt inspired legions of Americans when he famously said, "The only thing we have to fear is this haunted house." Venture bravely into terrifying territory with this Groupon.
Choose from Three Options
- $22 for Zombie 5K admission for one (a $45 value)
- $39 for Zombie 5K admission for two (an $80 value)
- $75 for Zombie 5K admission for four (a $150 value)
Starting at 1 p.m. on Saturday, March 23, the Zombie 5K challenges runners to test their endurance and survival skills on an obstacle-laced course infested with zombies. Each runner is outfitted with flags that signify their health, and if they lose all of their flags, then they become a zombie themselves. The goal is to follow your instincts and make your own way from the starting line to the finish line with at least one flag intact. All runners receive a racing bib and medal to signify whether they survived the race, and the top finishers are eligible for prizes and free admission to the postrace party.

Hi, I'm a programmer at a trading firm. People at Goldman Sachs have told me that my trading firm is considered very good at what it does. What I've learned from the traders at my firm is that they are very, very good at their jobs and they have several advantages which are not available to you. Briefly:posted by jessamyn at 6:59 AM on October 4, 2012 [4 favorites]
- Your strategies actually have to be more profitable than the professionals' because you will pay more to execute them. One example: Every exchange I know has a different fee schedule for individual investors than for market-makers and broker-dealers. Usually there are discounts or rebates or some other form of payment offered to MM/BDs for providing liquidity. Another: unless you have an operations/post-trade department you haven't mentioned, you'll need to go through a broker-dealer, who will nail you with fees that the professionals don't have to pay.
- Even if you execute only good trades (positive expectancy), you will lose money, and the professionals have a lot more to lose than you. You may say think, "Oh, but I won't execute big trades." Except lots of trades actually have unbounded risk. If you write a call on stock you don't own, and the counterparty exercises it, you're on the hook to deliver that stock at whatever it costs. You can do a one-dollar trade and be on the hook for a million dollars. This is a very obvious example; there are more subtle ones, and even professionals can't always tell the difference.
- The first few years of a trader's career is a matter of buying experience with money (through making mistakes), and that's a process where you're disadvantaged in two ways. First of all, because professionals just have more money than you. And second of all, because they get to cheat by learning from the mistakes already made by their colleagues. (This is not the same as reading some forum on the internet or studying someone's newsletter. If that guy knew what he was talking about, he'd go execute the trades himself.)
There are lots more, but I have to go to work now. The bottom line is, don't do it. Kadin2048 seems to know what he's talking about; listen to him. So does kovacs, but he's not as strongly discouraging so I'd rather you didn't read him.
FauxScot, I'm sorry to say, doesn't sound like he's offering you very informed advice. For one thing, MBAs don't learn anything about trading. For another, covered calls are a stock joke in trading: hugely popular with the retail crowd, but not actually a sensible idea at all. The founder of my firm has told sad, head-shaking stories about how he's had to dissuade his friends from buying into some quack's covered call strategy.
If you really want to do this, use your engineering program to take lots of statistics, and then go interview at a few good trading firm. If you can't get an offer, that's their way of saying, "We really want you go to on the market, but not with our money."

When he died this week, 2-year-old Andrew Patrick Griffin weighed about 13 pounds, roughly the same as the typical 3-month-old. His body was covered with bruises and abrasions, and he appeared malnourished and dehydrated, according to investigators.
His parents, a Towson couple with four other children, have been arrested and charged with child abuse in connection with the toddler's death, Baltimore County police said yesterday, describing the case as one that bears the signs of protracted neglect.The family, who lives in the 300 block of Old Trail Road in the Rodgers Forge neighborhood, had not been investigated by county social workers previously, nor had there been prior reports of possible abuse or neglect, authorities said.
John J. Griffin is a 38-year-old computer system engineer and a graduate of Loyola High School and Loyola College, according to his lawyer. Susan Griffin is a 37-year-old stay-at-home mother.
They were charged with first-degree child abuse after emergency room doctors found Andrew's injuries suspicious and police found what they believe is blood on clothes, walls and the ceiling of the couple's bedroom.
At a bail review hearing yesterday afternoon, the couple sat side-by-side and appeared via a video feed from the Baltimore County Detention Center, where they were being held. John Griffin looked straight ahead; his wife covered her face with her hands at times and appeared to cry.
At the hearing, District Judge Robert J. Steinberg ruled that John Griffin's bail should remain at $1.5 million and Susan's Griffin's bail should be kept at $1 million. "There is ample probable cause for the charge of child abuse," the judge said.
The couple's two older children, 10 and 9 years old, are being cared for by John Griffin's mother, police said. Their younger children, 4 and 1, are in foster care, according to authorities.
John Griffin took Andrew, who would have turned 3 in February, to St. Joseph's Medical Center in Towson on Wednesday, police said.
The child was "cold to the touch and unresponsive," according to court documents. Doctors were unable to resuscitate the boy and pronounced him dead about 3 p.m., according to the documents.
The child had several bruises on his head and ears and around his eyes, and areas on his head appeared indented, court documents said. His nose and lips were "scabbed and discolored." Some of the child's injuries appeared recent, and others appeared to be in the process of healing, indicating that they were sustained over a period of time, according to the documents.
John Griffin told police that about 1 p.m. Wednesday, he checked on Andrew, who had been napping, and "didn't like what he saw," according to the documents. He said his wife attempted to perform CPR on the child for about 20 minutes but could not get him to breathe.
John Griffin told police he drove Andrew to the hospital, rather than call 911 for an ambulance, because they live close to St. Joseph's. Susan Griffin stayed home to watch the other children, according to the documents.
Police said that during a search of the Griffin home Wednesday night, they found what appeared to be blood inside the bassinet in the master bedroom where Andrew slept. There also appeared to be blood on clothing, the four walls and the ceiling, according to the court documents.
To explain the child's malnourished state, John Griffin told investigators that the child had suffered a flu-like illness in August or September, according to court documents.
He said that he and his wife didn't take the child to their pediatrician because the doctor had disallowed the family from making any appointments over a billing issue, the court papers say.
In the charging documents, police quote John Griffin as saying, "What did you want me to do ... pay $400 to have my child seen by a doctor and work out the details with the insurance company later?"
Susan Griffin told police that she and Andrew had fallen down the steps several months ago and that Andrew had suffered several seizures since then, according to the court papers. But she said Andrew had been to the doctor only once since he was born, according to charging documents.
A preliminary autopsy concluded that Andrew weighed about 13 pounds, which is the average weight of a 3-month-old baby, and that he was 28 inches long, the average height of an 8-month-old, according to police.
Pending the results of the investigation and autopsy, which could take weeks to complete, additional criminal charges could be filed, county police spokesman Bill Toohey said.

This is my first attempt at being a blogger. "Blogging" might be something you think I'm not interested in (and you might be right). But, I'm clear on my positions, opinions and getting a conversation started on topics of the day.
So here it goes…
Why is the GOP allowing the Tea Party to steal their party? It is one thing to utilize the energy and enthusiasm the Tea Party brings to the debate. It's a useful tool when it comes to certain needs… Door to door, parades, fundraising and flag waving. However, to give them control and let them become the face of the party is something no "Reagan Republican" ever wanted.
Here is where the problem lies for the Reagan Republicans: the Tea Party no longer just wants to protest. They want to make policy and they expect the people they support to give the ultimate sacrifice for that policy. If need be, they expect Republicans to be ready to lose elections to make a point. If they aren't willing to make that sacrifice, then the Tea Party will make it for them in the primary process.
In some ways it is a lot like the parents who feeds their kids nothing but pop and chocolate all their life and then wonders why they didn't make the basketball team. Republicans created the Tea Party. Republicans grew the Tea party. Republicans brought out the Tea Party every two years at election time. The problem is the Tea Party grew up and they aren't going to just be used by Republicans every two years anymore.
Ladies and gentleman, the Reagan Republicans don't like their kid. The biggest problem they have is that it is still their kid.

I think this is my fault. About five days after this article was published, a new version of Rails was released, that changed some of the URLs that I had used in this article (all URLs containing "MyTest" changed to "My_Test").
Rather than change the URLs in this article I told people to uninstall Rails 0.9.5 and install 0.9.4 and I change this article to spcify that Rails 0.9.4 be installed.. I was hoping that using a specific version of Rails would prevent future Rails releases from breaking this tutorial.
Unfortunately, doing this causes the problem you are having. So, I've asked the ONLamp.com editor to revert back to installing the latest version of Rails and change the URLs containing "MyTest" to use "My_Test".
I profusely apologize for causing you all this frustration, and I suggest that you start over with a fresh installation of Ruby, and just install Rails using the command "gem install rails --remote", then use "My_Test" in the URLs wherever you see "MyTest".
Also note, I've seen reports that on linux systems you may have to use all lowercase in the URLs, i.e., "my_test" (which should work on Windows, too).

Hmm, while I suspect something along the lines of what you say, that does not solve my problem. I read the comments regarding the rails 0.9.4 vs 0.9.5 issue well before I began acually began working through the tutorial. In fact, I even installed 0.9.5 deliberately just to see the issue for myself, then uninstalled, installed 0.9.4, and began the tutorial again from the very beginning; (actually, I did this more than once, and tried on both Linux and Windows).
So, I have no issues with the MyTest v. MyTest type urls -- I get that part; take another look at my first post and you will see that my problem is that the scaffold-generated urls in the recipe app (using rails 0.9.4 and Ruby 1.8.2 simply do not even include the action/method at the end of the url. So, for example, the url labled "New recipe" on the list page simply leads back to the list page itself, with a record number appended. As I mentioned, I can type in the url , e.g., /recipe/show/2, and it displays fine.

Part of the problem (at least the part I understand) has to do with the fact that the RubyGems package named "rails" is composed of some glue code that binds together three other, independent RubyGems packages named "activerecord", "actionpack" and "actionmailer.
And, for example, the rails-0.9.4 package says it depends on the packages activerecord-1.5.0 or greater, actionspack-1.3.0 or greater, and actionmailer-0.6.0 or greater. Rails-0.9.5 uses more recent versions of all three packages. The problem here is with the "or greater" part.
When you "gem uninstall rails" it only removes the rails package, and not the others. When you say "gem install rails -v 0.9.4" it happily installs rails-0.9.4, but keeps using the more recent versions of the other packages because the "or greater" part of the dependency tells RubyGems those packages work fine rails-0.9.4. The problem is that they don't, and cause the weird URLs that you are seeing. This has got to be an unforseen bug in Rails' gemspec, and I need to post a bug report for this.
To make matters worse, you can't even go back to rails-0.9.4 by trying to install the desired packages manually. I tried to do this last night:
gem install activerecord -v 1.5.0
gem install actionpack -v 1.3.0
gem install actionmailer -v 0.6.0
gem install rails -v 0.9.4
When installing rails-0.9.4 RubyGems should notice that all the other needed packages are already installed and just install the rails package. Unfortunately, it does install rails-0.9.4 and then proceeds to install rails-0.9.5 and the latest version of all the other packages. This has got to be a bug in the RubyGems package manager, and I will report this as well.
But, the bottom line is that there is currently no way to correctly install anything but the latest version of rails, and the uninstall/reinstall instructions that I gave earlier not only don't work, but also cause bizarre strangeness due to these unintended incompatibilities.
I would recommens that you wipe out everything and reinstall from a clean slate, stick with rails-0.9.5 and do not attempt to install an older version.

2005-01-30 10:42:56 pyellman [View]
Ahh yes -- a tangle web. Thanks for the input. That explains why my "clean slate" Windows install also suffered the problem; gem must have installed the newer versions of activerecord, actionpack, etc.
Oh well, it's beta and I've learned plenty. I'll give it a go with rails 0.9.5.

I'm sorry you're having so much trouble... after all, the whole point is that this is supposed to be easy.
Perhaps you also need to start the cookbook application with a clean slate, too. In other words, not that you've got a clean rails 0.9.5 installed use that to create a new cookbook web app, and then proceed forward with that.

Ok, it works now, with the latest.
You were on to something with your comment "Also note, I've seen reports that on linux systems you may have to use all lowercase in the URLs, i.e., "my_test" (which should work on Windows, too)."
After clean reinstall, always using lowercase urls generates links correctly for the Recipes application. Using the uppercase version (e.g., /Recipe/) _sort of_ works. The discussion of the MyTest vs. My_Test url took me on the wrong track of capitalizing the urls are per the naming of the model/controller, especially since My_Test (or MyTest) works fine.
IMO, this is a bug. It should be either or, not "works one way, sort of works the other way". It raises obvious questions: (1) Why ? (2) Will this bite me in other ways, cost me more time down the line with unexpected behavior? I suppose the short answer is "always use lowercase urls". This definitely needs to be emphasized to Unix/Linux users, though, who might interpret simply "case matters" in a different way.

Well, it just worked for me. I luckily installed Rails and got the newest versions of everything.
Now, will you add stuff so that perhaps us database snobs can use Postgres instead of MySQL?
And maybe you could post how to migrate this app to run under Apache (and the configurations for Apache to work with Ruby via FastCGI)?
I find the config info on ruby-central/rubygarden/whatnot for using Ruby with Apache a bit confusing. I'm only vaguely familiar with editing http.conf and .htaccess, so when I see bits of config info, I'm not sure where it really should go into the one walkthru for this.

The Ruby on Rails site has some info on this in the Howto section (click on "Documentation", then click on "Howto"). In particular, these two pages might be what you want:

FastCGI is no longer considered the preferred way to deploy Rails apps. The trend, instead, is to use Mongrel to serve up the rails app and mod_proxy to that from Apache. You can find Mongrel here:

Yes, of course I always recreate the cookbook application -- it's just a couple lines of typing. In fact, I can now run through the whole tutorial in about 10 minutes flat!
I don't recreate the database, though (my wife suggested reformatting the hard drive). As I said, I can list just fine, and perform all the other actions -- show, add, delete -- by doctoring the links.
I'll try another example from the rails site. I want it to work!

actionmailer (0.6.1)
Service layer for easy email delivery and testing.
actionpack (1.4.0)
Web-flow and rendering framework putting the VC in MVC.
activerecord (1.6.0)
Implements the ActiveRecord pattern for ORM.
rails (0.9.5)
Web-application framework with template engine, control-flow layer,
and ORM.
rake (0.4.15)
Ruby based make-like utility.
sources (0.0.1)
This package provides download sources for remote gem installation
Still the same problem -- actions not appended to urls. Can do everything by typing in the url, including "create" by saving the "new" page and modifying the post target to point to "create".
Bummer. Oh well.

So, for example, the url labled "New recipe" on the list page simply leads back to the list page itself, with a record number appended.
Should read simply:
So, for example, the url labled "New recipe" on the list page simply leads back to the list page itself.
The record number of course gets appened to "Show" urls, but the show action does not.

I would only like this idea for my Draenei priest, though, not for my Blood Elf, or my Undead (I loves me some priests). I like the idea that different races would have different faiths and would draw on the power of whatever their fate is. So basically, not every priest is praying to the same entity.
Now, saying that, I do think it would be cool if you could pick what "religion" your priest believed in, no matter what race you play. For instance, I love thinking my Blood Elf ran away to the Undercity as an emo youth to study Shadow Magic amongst all the undead. I also like thinking my Undead priest was a Blood Elf in life, and spends her time in Silvermoon because it's a comfort to be back in her home city.
It'd be cool if each "religion" had its own little flair. Maybe the spells could be the same, but have different animations. Trolls could have more voodoo flavored spell effects, Blood Elves could have sun or Phoenix-esque stuff... That sort of thing. I know it'd be a lot of extra work for the designers but I don't care! ;) Even if it was just one "flair" spell per race or religion, I'd be satisfied. Sort of like the new racial totems, but with a single spell or something. You could even give the same spell different names, like how Horde has Bloodlust and Alliance has Heroism.

Given that some presidents have won without persuading the majority of Americans, and the huge deal of money spent only on swing states I ask myself that question
I have always thought that it is unfair that republicans in California or Democrats in Texas are not taken into account just because people around them think differently.
Time for change?

Seriously, she did.
More here, in a page I wrote for New York magazine.
It's easy to influence the past, dummy. Use your head.
He was a small, pale creature—something between a boy and a man. And very rich, too. Almost mortally wounded by his own wealth.
"I'm worried that you will only love me because of my money," he told me.
You wish it were that simple, I thought.
What l said was: "Money has nothing to do with it."
A coworker was late this morning because a person jumped onto the tracks at her subway station. The guy was struck by a train. He didn't time it right, though, and was alive when my coworker (and, coincidentally, the paramedics) arrived. The paramedics screamed at the man not to move. It turned out that he had stabbed both of his parents to death earlier in the day.
There seems to be a lot of parent-killing in the news this month: grown children going off the rails and murdering their parents with knives, guns, or lengths of cable. In theory, patricide is the most motivated of all crimes. Regardless of the particular relationship between child and parent, there is no person for whom a child could potentially have more reasons to kill than his mother or father. Think about it. The number of grievances a child might accrue against a parent is literally boundless, both quantitatively and in an ontological sense.
This doesn't make patricide sympathetic or reasonable; it just makes it interesting. Nothing is more boring—more stupid and dismal— than an unmotivated crime.
With one boyfriend I went to Todos Santos. The first night he drank too much and got hammered in a cabana. I tried to stroke his neck but he pushed me away, so I went downstairs to the beach and walked around, looking for a surfboard. There were chairs in which to sit and look at the fluorescent-lit sand and the black waves. The cushions were a plastic wipe-off material and I thought about all the things that had presumably been wiped off of them. Upstairs my boyfriend was prone and unresponsive, which was a dynamic that would repeat itself many times, though only twice more in the cabana.
My skin is fragile; bruises easily.
"Maybe you have scurvy," Alice says.
Maybe I do.
My favorite rhetorical move is the one where incredible animal feats are translated into human terms in order to make them more intelligibly amazing. If you've ever watched a BBC or PBS nature special, you know what I'm talking about.
Here's an example:
The tiger beetle can run at a speed of 5.6 mph, which, relative to its body length, is the equivalent of a human running at 480 miles per hour.
The mantis shrimp uses its front legs to punch through the shells of prey with a force 8,000 times that of gravity. If a human boxer had the same capabilities, his punch would have the same force as a gun.
Now, here is the task. Is there a specific name for this maneuver? And if not, who will come up with one?
In summer not even your insides are discernible from your outsides. Blow a stream of air at your wrist and it's no warmer or cooler than the atmosphere, just different.
At home in the summer I work in denim shorts, my feet resting on a rubber pig that Nick insists we keep beneath the kitchen table due to its ugliness.
When he gets home, Nick tells me about his job at a city agency. Often I contribute observations that sound stoned or demented, and he calmly explains how the government devotes entire swaths of itself to the inevitability of its own malfunction.
"Oversight is something-something-something," he'll say, voice disappearing into the closet as he unspools his tie. "But it winds up being part of a larger self-correction geared towards achieving as little reform as possible while still satisfying the demands that led to its creation in the first place."
"Which are what?" I ask.
"Popular outcry," he says. "Fear of crisis. I love you."

Minotaur Books
June, 1565: Master ninja Hiro Hattori receives a pre-dawn visit from Kazu, a fellow shinobi working undercover at the shogunate. Hours before, the shogun''s cousin, Saburo, was stabbed to death in the shogun's palace. The murder weapon: Kazu's personal dagger. Kazu says he's innocent, and begs for Hiro's help, but his story gives Hiro reason to doubt the young shinobi's claims.
When the shogun summons Hiro and Father Mateo, the Portuguese Jesuit priest under Hiro's protection, to find the killer, Hiro finds himself forced to choose between friendship and personal honor.
The investigation reveals a plot to assassinate the shogun and overthrow the ruling Ashikaga clan. With Lord Oda's enemy forces approaching Kyoto, and the murderer poised to strike again, Hiro must use his assassin's skills to reveal the killer's identity and protect the shogun at any cost. Kazu, now trapped in the city, still refuses to explain his whereabouts at the time of the murder. But a suspicious shogunate maid, Saburo's wife, and the shogun's stable master also had reasons to want Saburo dead. With the shogun demanding the murderer's head before Lord Oda reaches the city, Hiro and Father Mateo must produce the killer in time . . . or die in his place.
Susan Spann's Blade of the Samurai is a complex mystery that will transport readers to a thrilling and unforgettable adventure in sixteenth-century Japan.
Chapter 1
Hiro opened his eyes in darkness.
Night enveloped the room like a shroud, broken only by the beam of moonlight streaming through the open veranda door. The still air and the moonbeam's angle told Hiro that dawn was still an hour away.
In most Kyoto houses an open shoji represented a dangerous oversight. For Hiro, a shinobi assassin turned bodyguard, the door was an early warning system that had just paid off.
He strained his ears, listening for the sound that woke him. He heard only silence.
A weight shifted atop Hiro's feet as
"The second Hiro Hattori mystery (after 2013's Claws of the Cat) finds the sixteenth-century ninja—and unofficial investigator—presented with an interesting problem…A strong second entry in a very promising series."—Booklist
"Hiro and Father Mateo's second adventure (Claws of the Cat, 2013) combines enlightenment on 16th-century Japanese life with a sharp and well-integrated mystery."—Kirkus Reveiws
"After her exciting historical mystery debut, Claws of the Cat, Spann proves she has the touch in her sophomore entry. The deceptively simple prose educates readers about 16th-century Japan, while the well-plotted story moves at ninja speed. The endearing characters fight to defend honor and truth, giving this strong YA appeal."—Library Journal

Were it not for the plate in his body armor, Army Sgt. Joe Morrissey would never have been married, and his daughter would not be ready to enter the world in a matter of weeks.
The reality of the situation was not lost on his wife, Nikki, a Harford County native, who is seven months pregnant with their daughter, Harper, due in November.
"It's pretty amazing how much was able to happen just because of a piece of equipment," Nikki Morrissey said.
Joe Morrissey, a native of Florida, survived being shot in the abdomen by an insurgent on Aug. 9, 2012 during his second deployment to Afghanistan, protected by the Enhanced Small Arms Protective Insert, or ESAPI, plate in his body armor.
The plate is made by Ceradyne Inc., headquartered in Costa Mesa, Calif.
Nikki Morrissey traveled to Ft. Belvoir, Va., with her husband, and father Bob Cole, last week for a ceremony, during which Morrissey received the damaged plate from representatives of Program Executive Officer Soldier, an Army agency tasked with coordinating with defense contractors to design and manufacture soldiers' clothing and equipment, including their body armor.
Nikki and Joe were married on Oct. 6, 2012, about two years after they met. He returned to the U.S. from his second deployment to Afghanistan in September 2012; he had also been deployed in 2010.
He wasn't injured in the shooting other than some bruises, and said he plans to re-enlist and make a career out of the Army.
He is assigned to Bravo Troop, 4th Squadron, 73rd Cavalry Regiment, a RSTA (Reconnaissance, Surveillance and Target Acquisition) unit with the 82nd Airborne Division, headquartered in Ft. Bragg, N.C.
He and his wife live in Raeford, N.C., about 25 miles from Ft. Bragg.
She, her father and her husband spoke by telephone from Ft. Belvoir after the ceremony last Wednesday.
"We're thrilled that his body armor did its job; he took a direct shot," Bob Cole, who grew up in Joppatowne and now lives in Fork, said of Joe Morrissey.
He is the owner of Cole Concrete Inc., a concrete contracting firm headquartered in Kingsville.
"We're just thrilled, very proud of him," he said of his son-in-law.
Cole described the turnout for the ceremony as "overwhelming," with Army officers and various news crews.
A PEO Soldier spokesman said about 40 to 50 people attended the ceremony, including a member of Morrissey's fire team with Charlie Troop of the 4-73 Cavalry.
Morrissey was assigned to Charlie Troop when he was serving in Afghanistan.
The soldier, Spc. Sam Walley, had lost an arm and a leg in an IED explosion in June 2012, two months before Morrissey was shot.
The spokesman said Morrissey had been helping Walley with his recovery in the U.S.
Still traumatic

Have you made this pattern?
Share with the Craftsy community.
I am usually inspired by the sea and this necklace reminds me of the waves of the ocean, but in a gentle way. It is so delicate that it looks like lace, so when my friend came up with the name "Sea Lace" I realized it described it perfectly.
A delicate beaded necklace knit with a unique yarn that combines either wool or silk with stainless steel.
Short rows create a ruffle or spiral as you knit with this yarn. The stainless steel in the yarn gives body to this very thin yarn. You can choose to use beads anywhere from size 11 to size 6, each size creating a different effect. It is not difficult to knit except for working with small needles and very thin yarn. The pattern is easy to follow so I would say an advanced beginner could knit the necklace.
Experience with stringing beads and knitting with beads is helpful.
The pattern includes color photos of the finished project, easy to follow directions, a list of abbreviations and a stitch glossary explaining the techniques used in the project.
I know a lot of you are sitting home with Habu silk stainless steel or Lion Brand Wool Stainless Steel in your stash wondering what to do with it. But for those of you who aren't, I have listed the sources for the yarn on the pattern.
My design philosophy: My designs are a mixture of traditional and non-traditional elements. My patterns are easy to read and are often based on simple shapes and techniques that minimize complicated finishing. The majority of my patterns are accessories so sizing is often not critical. My love of texture and color shows up in my ability to mix yarns and to match yarns to particular styles.

A growing number of scientific studies indicate that optimistic people tend to live longer and have better physical and mental health than pessimistic people.
People with cancer often tap into their spiritual side when battling the illness. This might include prayer, attending religious services, reading passages from a holy book, or simply expressing gratitude and love.
You can find many ways to cope with stress. The goal of each approach, whether it be coping skills or relaxation techniques, is to bring you from a place of tension to a place of serenity - mentally, physically, emotionally, and spiritually.
Life as a cancer survivor can be as rich and rewarding as you decide to make it. In fact, increased awareness of mortality is all some people need to feel more alive than ever.
Palliative care focuses on improving a patient's quality of life by improving the symptoms of his or her illness, such as pain, shortness of breath, and difficulty sleeping. It's used with a variety of ailments, including cancer, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease, kidney failure, or congestive heart failure.

Side Dish Recipe: Bacon and Cheddar Cheese Biscuits
Sometimes you just need a biscuit. One that's warm from the oven and pillow-soft in the middle. These particular scruffy-looking biscuits have become a recent obsession of mine, owing in great part to the fact that they're incredibly easy to throw together. They're also studded with bits of smoky bacon and flavored with sharp cheddar cheese - who can resist that?
This recipe is based on our favorite Buttermilk Biscuit recipe. I simply added a few slices of crispy bacon and a handful of shredded cheddar cheese. The minced chives add a kick of freshness. Apart from frying the bacon, everything can be done in the food processor in about five minutes. (Additional directions for making biscuits without a food processor follow below.)
I like to make biscuits in my cast iron skillet, especially if I've left a little bacon grease in the bottom. You can also make them a stainless steel skillet or a regular baking dish.
6 slices (~5 oz) thick-cut bacon, diced
1 cup (6 oz) all purpose flour
1 cup (5 oz) cake flour (or 3/4 cup all-purpose flour + 2 Tablespoons cornstarch)
2 teaspoons baking powder
1/2 teaspoon baking soda
1 1/2 teaspoons granulated sugar
3/4 teaspoon salt
8 tablespoons (1 stick, 4 oz) frozen unsalted butter
1 cup (4 oz) shredded sharp cheddar cheese
1/4 cup minced chives
1 cup (8 oz) buttermilk
Preheat the oven to 450°F.
Place a cast-iron or stainless steel skillet over medium heat and fry the bacon until just crispy. Remove the bacon with a slotted spoon and allow it to drain on a paper towel. Pour off all but one tablespoon of the bacon fat into a heat-proof bowl and reserve.
In the bowl of a food processor, combine the flours, baking powder, baking soda, sugar, and salt. Pulse several times to thoroughly combine. Quickly cut the frozen butter into large chunks with a sharp knife and add these to the food processor. Pulse food processor 8-10 times until meal is finely ground (be careful - the flour bounces up at first).
Pour flour and butter mixture into a medium-sized bowl and stir in the bacon, cheese, and chives. Add the buttermilk all at once. Using a spatula or fork, gently mix until you see no more dry flour.
Sprinkle a little flour on the counter and dump the dough on top. Sprinkle a little more flour on top and use your hands to quickly pat the dough into a circle about 1/2 - 1 inch thick, depending on how thick you like your biscuits. Use a biscuit cutter, circular cookie cutter, or the rim of a glass to cut out biscuit shapes. Transfer to the skillet used to cook the bacon. Reform the dough and cut more biscuits until the dough has all been used.
Brush the tops of the biscuits with reserved bacon fat (or melted butter) and bake for 18-20 minutes, until the tops are golden brown and a toothpick inserted in the middle comes out clean.
Let the biscuits cool for 5 minutes, then transfer to a wire rack until dinner time. Store leftovers in a sealed container for several days. These make an excellent snack on the go.
Additional Directions for Making Biscuits by Hand:
• Whisk the dry ingredients in a bowl. Use a box grater to shred your butter as quickly as possible and then toss this with the dry ingredients. Use a fork or pastry blender to further cut the butter into the flour until the pea-sized crumbs are formed. Continue with the recipe as above.

Oh man, I was just talking about making chili this weekend - what a perfect accompaniment these would be!
Ooh! That would go well with chilli! Any recommendation on how to do a vegetarian version of this without using bacon but still getting the smokey flavor? Are there vegetarian bacon bits?
Oh my goodness, these sound delicious!
@Laura - Try using smoked gouda in place of the cheddar, and maybe a teaspoon of smoked paprika (though that will make your biscuits orangey-red!).
Jesus H, Emma. I want. But I also have hereditary cholesterol issues. Why must you torment me? :)
I wonder if I could do this with turkey bacon...they look delicious
I saw this today and just pulled a batch out of the oven - I had almost all of the ingredients on hand. It's raining here so the dough was kind of wet, but otherwise it was an easy recipe to put together. I would have liked more salt - would adding more into the dough affect the baking? I thought maybe sprinkling kosher salt on top might be better....or you know, making a bacon and egg sandwich with one of these babies would do the trick to! They smell wonderful! I would totally make these again.
@Laucus - You could certainly make these with turkey bacon!
@Sarah - Adding a little more salt won't affect the dough. Maybe go up to one rounded teaspoon? I also thought about sprinkling kosher salt on top, but ended up deciding the salty flavor from my bacon fat was enough. Go for it!
@laura bellk: I usually substitute Morningstar Breakfast Strips for all of my bacon subs. Its not fatty like bacon but its a nice exchange :)
I have sooo been craving biscuits since the weather got cooler - how did you know? These look wonderful!
Oh, to add, I *was* using low sodium bacon so maybe that's why I wanted more salt....I probably won't buy that stuff again.
I was totally a slug and made these with the food processor all the way. I used scallions. Holy cow these were amazing and fluffy even as drop biscuits.
Mine are in the oven now! Can't wait to try them. Recipe was very simple, and easy to follow (even half-awake!)
Thank you
Who's scruffy-lookin'?
where does one get this cute biscuit cutter?
Mine were good, but not really fluffy... Can someone give me any tips? This was my first hand at biscuit making so I did them in a baking dish because I loaned out my skillet... The way I had made them, they just werent a make again recipe...
Ps: the were the perfect addition though to my beef stew especially since my oven was free...
I made these yesterday! My dough was very wet though (maybe b/c I didn't have cake flour on hand?) so I scooped out dough into a muffin tin and they turned out great!! I'm making them again tomorrow for a work potluck!
omg!!! my eyes went rolling back n my head...yum! im trying to print this out but it will not let me any help?! i gotta have sum...please!
Made these today in both the original and veggie bacon form and they both got great reviews! I like making my biscuits a little smaller than most, so if you do the same, you might want to pull them out of the oven about 5 mins earlier.
These were amazing! So delicious. We used spring onions - they worked just fine instead of chives. You can skip the step where you shape it out on the counter. Go ahead and just make little patties out of it and put it right on the skillet. Not quite as pretty but a lot simpler. Next time I'm adding jalepenos and maybe a little less salt.
what size skillet/pan do you recommend for baking?
Delicious! I love this spin on traditional buttermilk biscuits. I would have never thought to make these in a cast iron skillet.

Reader Comments (Page 1 of 1)
I have very similar experiences in the guild I'm in. I usually run with a druid/druid or druid/shammy. The RL recognizes pallies for superior MT/OT heals, and that's where I am generally assigned. The second the tank pulls the healing assignments go out the window. Druid is spamming everything he has on the entire raid, and generally I have overheal as high as 70% on some fights.
I agree that it's frustrating topping out the overheal meters. My numbers would be a lot better if I didn't have other people sniping heals on the tanks. The sad truth is if they want to do that, they can. The only real way I can get any "effective" heals in is to use FOL on the raid. Sometimes I beat the druid, but most of the time I don't.
I actually considered not healing at all to see if the druid would even notice. Maybe he just needs a mana nerf to keep him on his assignment =)
I've considered talking to the GM about the issue. If this druid can heal the entire raid all by himself they should just have me switch to my offspec and dps.

He also visited Brazil's famed City of God slum as the biggest military intervention in the Arab world since the Iraq invasion entered its second day.
"True to its internationalist instincts, the Obama administration would never contemplate an action that lacked U.N. approval, yet United Nations permission alone is inadequate. Sen. Richard Lugar, Indiana Republican, believes that the Congress should debate a declaration of war over intervening in Libya. But the White House has not sought even the type of congressional authorization for the use of force that President George W. Bush did before the invasions of Afghanistan and Iraq. It would be ironic to say the least if Mr. Obama waged war with less legal backing than his predecessor." [Read more]

Belfast (April 12) Chris Eubank junior has promised double trouble for his next opponent - because this time he will be using BOTH fists.
Fury vs. Rogan and Eubank Jr vs. Allison, proudly presented by Hennessy Sports, will be broadcast live on Channel 5.
Eubank, 22, won a points victory in his second pro fight against former cage fighter Jason Ball in February despite only being able to jab with his left fist.
He had suffered a hand injury while sparring with a heavyweight a few days before the bout but believed it would heal in time for the fight. He was also determined the fight should not be called off for the sake of the fans.
But middleweight Eubank jnr says his right hand is now 100 per cent healed and is pledging fireworks against Scotland's Paul Allison on April 14th on the undercard of the Tyson Fury v Martin Rogan fight at the Odyssey Arena, Belfast.
He said yesterday: 'I am definitely predicting a stoppage in this one. I am looking to go there and produce an explosive performance.'
Opponent Allison has been reported as saying that Eubank 'got away with murder' in the Jason Ball fight, using his shoulders, forearms and elbow.
But Eubank jnr said: 'I don't agree with that at all. I kept him away from me with my left. Most fighters would have looked terrible using just one hand but I kept it as tidy as I could. I was keeping him away because if he had come inside it would have been a lot more difficult for me.'
He said he did not find it difficult to hold his right back in the Ball fight.
'I think there was some tendon damage and the middle knuckle was swollen up but I had thought it would be OK in time.
'I never considered pulling out. I believed 100 per cent that I could do it with the left. I really didn't want to be pulling out so early in my career and letting the fans down.'
After the Allison bout Eubank jnr, whose father Chris, 45, is a former WBO middleweight champion, said he is looking to fight five more times this year.
'I will be looking to get back into the ring as soon as possible, and as much as possible,' he added.

At a press conference held Wednesday in Lima, Peru, promoter Sampson Lewkowicz of Sampson boxing announced that World Boxing Association (WBA) Female Super Featherweight Champion, and Peruvian national hero, Kina Malpartida announced will face Thailand's Sriphrae Nongkipahuyuth on May 19, at a boxing event being held in conjunction with the WBA KO Drugs campaign.
The fight will be held at Miguel Grau Coliseum in the El Callao region of Peru.
Against Nongkipahuyuth (11-1-1, 4 KOs), Malpartida (13-3, 3 KOs) will be making the fifth defense of the title she won via TKO 10 over Maureen Shea in 2009. She has also defended against Halana Dos Santos (TKO 7), Lyndsey Scragg (UD 10), Liliana Palmera (UD 10) and was last seen defeating American Rhonda Luna via near-shutout 10-round decision last April.
Without having to put on the event herself, 32-year-old Malpartida says she is more than ready for her 19-year-old challenger.
"I am at my physical and mental peak," she told the huge crowd of assembled media. "Fighting in El Callao is the best thing that has ever happened to me. It will be a great honor to be making the fifth defense of my title in Peru. I have had a great training camp in the United States and by fight time, I will be in unbelievable physical condition.
Malpartida is the first Peruvian female boxer in history to win a world championship.
Arandas Jalisco adds Championship Boxing to its city with the Road to Glory, a Triple Championship card on Saturday
ARANDAS, JALISCO.- Founded in the mid 1700s, and nested at over 6.000 feet above sea level, Arandas, Jalisco is a small city that not only holds on to old Mexican traditions but has also welcomed modern day culture and activities.
With a population of a little less than 100,000, its sports facilities include venues for the practice of soccer, volleyball, basketball and athletics. It also has a bullring, a Lienzo Charro, for the display horsemanship skills, and in contrast, a skate park.
This weekend, Championship boxing will also be added to the list of activities for the town that is located approximately 65 miles East of Guadalajara.
With the support of Arandas Mayor, Jose Guadalupe Tejeda Vázquez, Canelo Promotions is presenting the first multi championship card, at the Municipal Auditorium.
For its final press conference regarding the international ROAD TO GLORY card that will take place this Saturday April 14, including fighters from Costa Rica, Colombia and Mexico, the Mayor hosted the conference and was accompanied by another Jalisco idol, twice former world champion Oscar "Chololo" Larios.
Far from the typical nylon backdrops, the ROAD TO GLORY press conference had an open-air setting showing the cities clear weather and several maguey plants, the source of the biggest wealth for the city and the Jalisco region: the production of Tequila, promoted as The very best in the world.
And it was under this general theme: the convergence of a welcoming city and international world class talent that Saturdays card was presented to the local press. After the Mayor and Larios welcomed the fighters and the promoters, it was the fighters themselves that spoke about the event.
Mexicos Victor Vikingo Terrazas, WBC Super Bantamweight Silver Champion will face Colombias Jose Palma in what will be his second opportunity fighting a Colombian.
The first time I fought a Colombian, I knocked him out and this time, I plan to do the same. Feider Viloria only lasted three rounds. This can give Palma an idea of what to expect, said, The Viking ".
In response, the South American fighter said: "I like to trade punches and in my career, I have only been knockout once, that was very early in my career, I come prepared to upset Terrazas.
For its part, undefeated Gilbert "Lefty" Ramirez, who will risk his WBC youth Middleweight Championship title against Costa Rican Jaime "Indio" Barboza said that his fight will end sooner than expected. Short on words but strong in punching power, Ramirez, who has knocked out 90% of his opponents, explained:
"This fight will be short, but very explosive, will finish soon with my challenger," he said.
Barboza took the microphone to tell the champion that two years ago came to Mexico to take on then undefeated Jose Pinzon, a surging boxer that also boasted of his powerful fists. Borbosa beat Pinzon al home, taking the title.
"Many boxers boast of their power, mainly the young undefeated fighters like Ramirez and I must say that not even Irish Brian Magge, whom I fought at a higher division, could fulfill his promise of knocking me out, " said "El Indio".
Another championship battle, between Mexicans will pit Bantamweights Jesus "Estrellita" Ruiz, from Sonora, and Christian "Italiano" Esquivel, who will fight for the North America Boxing Federation (NABF) belt , one held by many top rated boxers prior to going forward to stellar world-class careers.
Jesus Ruiz and Christian Esquivel, both with very respectable punch, were confident
of victory. The matches between compatriots are often very emotional and this is should not be the exception to the rule.
The official weight-in for this card will take place Friday an Parque Hidalgo, one of Arandas many cultural centers.
The championship card will be televised nationally to Mexico via Televisas Noches de Corona, on Channel 5.

What a rip off. Men's Health rehashed seven of its cover lines from a 2007 issue and dropped them onto its current cover, adorned by new boy-toy Taylor Lautner. The cover lines are copied verbatim, even positioned in the exact same locations. The colours of the text are changed here and there, you know, just in case readers cry foul and claim the magazine is unoriginal.
This is downright lowly, but it got me thinking. What does it really matter? Many service-oriented magazines rework the same stories into every other issue. "34 ways to make a good impression." "Get your best butt." "Are you pleasuring him enough?" Let's face it: many pieces get played up over and over again. At least Men's Health had the balls (no pun intended) to blatantly copy and paste its secondhand cover lines. But the good news? Readers are suckers for that stuff. They'll continue buying those generic hand-me-downs. And thank goodness for that.

Living life with psoriasis and how I see things, both personally and as a psoriatic.
Monday, August 26, 2013
My Health Insurance Company is a Pain In My...
I was really excited about the lightbox I chose. It was a full body unit that closed up and looked like a cabinet. I could even choose the finish and I wanted a nice wood to look more like a cabinet. But then I get a call from the representative...with bad news. Not only was my insurance company not willing to view the lightbox company as an in-network-provider, but they weren't even willing to work with them as an out-of-network provider. WTF???
I thanked the rep for all of her hard work and let her know I appreciated her fighting for me. I then spent several hours on the phone. I found out that there was only one lightbox model that my insurance company would allow me to get. It's not as nice as the one I was originally looking at, and I can only treat half my body at a time, so I have to do two treatments in one sitting to get my whole body. But anyway, it took 3 weeks of communication with all 5 parties involved: the insurance company, my dermatologist, the medical equipment provider, the unit manufacturer and myself. My dermatologist re-wrote a new Rx and updated my letter of medical necessity. I filled out new forms. Back and forth, forth and back with emails and phone calls. It felt like it was never going to happen. And then I hear the good news: THIS LIGHTBOX WAS COVERED 100%!!! Well, because my out-of-pocket maximum was met, which was met very quickly this year by having a baby. Making this the perfect year to get a lightbox!
So last Wednesday the light box showed up late afternoon, in two large boxes. I anxiously waited for my husband to get home from work so we could put it together. I read through the manual and all of the included materials. This lightbox comes preloaded with a set number of authorized treatments and then I have to get a code from my dermatologist for a new prescriptions worth of treatments. Interesting...
So first thing Thursday I call my derm. I am told my derm received a packet from the lighbox company and we need to sit down and plan a course of treatments. I get an appointment for first thing the following morning.
I leave the appointment with a plan of action for a course of treatments and a follow-up appointment for two months later. I get to go home and have my first phototherapy treatment session IN MY OWN HOME! In a lightbox that I own! Mine! Forever! Fully paid for by insurance!
So I'm pretty stoked. I've done two sessions now and my skin is already reacting. It's not vanishing, but I can tell the plaques are thinning. The manual states that about 20 sessions are usually required to see it go bye-bye. We shall see. I don't think it'll take that long. But I'll let you know!
Ahhhhh. I'm so glad I don't have to drive 45 minutes each way to go for a minute and a half treatment 3 times a week! What a time saver. This is great.
Oh, BTW this is the lightbox I got: http://www.natbiocorp.com/panosol-3d.htm
I like that it doesn't take up loads of space and plugs into a regular electrical outlet.
Anyway, I'll be back with an update another time.
