I know the slow progress must be frustrating for you and your son. Hopefully things will look better soon!
Since starting the isotretenoin, my son has had several complaints that he normally does not have. The dosgae was reduced after the first two weeks from 70 mg to 40 mg per day, but he has continued to have back pain, knee pain, tightening in his chest, and then last night he woke up with a nose bleed. He is convinced that all of these things are from the medicine and I have to say that I feel he may be correct. He said that he may want to stop taking it. We go back to the derm in the morning to have his blood work done after his first month of treatment.
So far, his acne has not shown much improvement, maybe a little, but I do feel like it will improve if the treatment continues.
Right now, I feel like stopping the treatment might be the best decision for my son because he just seems worried about these ailments and so am I. As I said before, my daughter has completed two courses of treatment with no problems. But it may not be right for everyone, so tomorrow we will decide what to do from here.
Does anyone know of any alternatives to the isotretenoin treatment that are somewhat effective?
Hi Mom Too, the side effects your son is feeling is def from the accutane. Try having the derm lower him to 20 mg a day, before you decide to stop. FYI Nosebleeds are pretty common though and is caused by the accutane drying the body out. My son puts a little vaseline in his nose at night and drinks a ton of water and no more nosebleeds. Before you do anyt hing have your son drink more waters. Drinking water is very important and also helps with the joint pain. I could tell if he wasnt drinking enough because I could tell his back was sore when he would get up from lying down or sitting in one position too long. he sprained his wrist a few weeks back and still has to wear a wrist wrap. The dr told him that yes this is all a part of the accutane and would clear up as soon as he finished treatment.
if you are still determined to stop the accutane there is another alternative. I draw a blank now on the name of the treatment (maybe someone here can chime in) but I believe it has to do with applying vitamin A to the face and using a light therapy. I will research it some more and post it.
It's good your son is breaking out bad....the worse the better imo......I went to Rush Dermatology in Chicago (one of the best in IL) and my derm said I was the 2nd worst patient he's ever had out of hundreds (embarrassing yea)......During my Accutane duration, i broke out baddddd twice (1 month after taking it, then 3 months after, not to mention other weird things).......for the last 2 years later my face is clear! it's quite unbelievable.......the worse the break outs the better it is in the future, the body is getting it all out
Mike09 thank you for the words of encouragement, right now it means more to me than you know. In fact its been all the words of encouragement here that has kept me positive for my son. I am so sorry to hear that the dr said you were one of the worst , but so glad you are clear and doing well. I think may son may have an infection also. The derm said he def needs to take two antibiotics to help clear up because it was so bad. They also gave him more cortisone shots. he said that things should have been looking better by now and has rarely ever had a patient go so slowly on treatment. (i think this also has to do with the fact that they give most of their patientss 80 mgs a day and my son can only tolerate 40 mg a day). I am keeping my fingers croosed and will update everyone if i see any changes while on antibiotics> Just incase anyone is having the same problems down the road they can read this and hopefully this helps them in their journey.

Recently, MTV News sat down with Brown to ask him about the songs and albums that helped him along the way. Because, as he told us, ultimately, it's all about the music. These are his picks for the album and artist of 2009.
Artist of the Year
"Juelz Santana. … He played me some of his [upcoming] album, and it's dope. He's just gotta keep doing him. It took [Lil] Wayne a long time to break mainstream. The last couple years have been his big break. So I think it's gonna take a while for Juelz to do it, but he got it. Juelz got it. He's always making great music, so I think he doesn't have too far to go."
Album of the Year
"This year? Man, that's hard. You know what I listened to a lot? Ryan Leslie's [Transition] album. He's a dope artist. He did [my song] 'Famous Girl' — he produced it — but he's just a dope artist. I think creatively he's so unique that I don't think people get it yet. He's just so dope. His album's incredible. I listen to it all the time."

CATEGORY: 'Graffiti' News, Billboard Updates, Chart Updates | PERMALINK
Chris Brown has had a rough year and many doubted that he could ever have a career again, and doubted the success of his album Graffiti, but through it all, you true Breezy fans stuck by him and made SURE he wouldn't fail, and by the look of these stats, he didn't. With barely any promo for his album, no TV performances, his CD being blackballed by major outlets etc, I would say CB weathered the storm and came out proving all the naysayers wrong with stats like this.
Billboard 200
- Graffiti debut: #7
Billboard HipHop/R&B
- Graffiti debut: #1
Billboard digital downloads
- Graffiti debut: #3
As for iTunes, Chris I can transform ya song just went gold with over 500k downloads!
Chris Brown is STILL the prince of R&B and the future of it. His image may have been damaged, but his talent stays the same.

I thought this was good. Just not impressive. I followed the recipe exactly, and was expecting more sweet and savory flavors. This is a simple recipe for a backyard cookout with basic cookout flavors and sides, like corn on the cob, potatoes, and green salad. I wouldn't bring this inside to plate on my fine china.
Northwest Grilled Flank Steak
James Carrier
This savory flank steak marinade with soy sauce, garlic, sesame, and ginger has been a favorite in Mary Massa's family for years. Because the flank steak marinates ahead of time, it can form the basis of a fast weeknight dinner; try it with a simple green salad and a side of grilled vegetables.

Nigerian Men The Good, The Bad, The Ugly!
- By Bolanle Aduwo
- Published 04/2/2007
- Relationships & Gender
Bolanle Aduwo
Bolanle Aduwo is a screenwriter, broadcaster and producer. She has written screenplays for several soaps and home videos in the Nigerian movie scene and is currently producing her own movie.View all articles by Bolanle Aduwo
Bold, brash, infuriating, funny, crafty, big-hearted, double-dealing, sexy, crazy, loving…take your pick! All these adjectives (and more) describe the quintessential Nigerian man. A lot has been said about him…some good, some not so good. There's the belief that Nigerian mothers raise their daughters and spoil their sons…too true. From the time he comes screaming from her into the world and all rejoice that "it's a boy! " he is doted and waited on hand and foot by the female folk in the family…whether mothers, sisters, aunties and their girlfriends/wives are expected to pick up from there. How many a little girl have had to wash dishes and when asked if Junior can join her, have been told "No! Because he is a boy!" How many a heart has been broken by those brown, twinkly eyes and wicked, dimpled grin? The countless "I'm sorry, I'll never do it again" to the "It wasn't my fault, she tricked me…into getting her pregnant!" Nigerian men are as different as they come but there are some characteristics that stand out, are constant and trail him wherever he goes.
HE IS HARDWORKING…Compared to his counterparts in Diaspora, the Nigerian man is a natural hustler. Whether its at his fancy bank job in V.I. or watch-peddling in the Traffic, he works hard for his money. Not for him the queuing at the Giro office or sitting on the sidewalk, swigging from a bottle of booze, hollering at sistas. Even if he does that you can be sure he has finished work and is just kidding around, which brings me to the next characteristic…
HE PLAYS HARD….what's all that hard work for if you don't get to spend the proceeds? He LURVES to groove…whether its at the Club or the open air pepper soup joint at Obalende! He loves to enjoy himself …and invite others to enjoy it with him. There's always some house-warming, Child Dedication, Birthday or new item to "wash" which leads me to the fact that…
HE LOVES THE GOOD THINGS OF LIFE…just drive through Lagos or any of the other major cities in Nigeria and check out the flashy cars, fancy homes and hot night spots. The Nigerian man (along with his woman) likes to enjoy the good things of life. He's got to have the flashiest car, the finest girl, the biggest house. If he's got the dough, he flaunts it (and wants you to know he is flaunting it too!) and God help those of other Nationalities when he is on the roll! On the downside, this has led many into a life of crime.
Another characteristic of the Nigerian man is that HIS LOVE FOR WOMEN! That the Nigerian man loves women can not be disputed. No race, colour or hue is off limits. Not too many years ago, the winner of Miss Norway Beauty Contest was a half-caste with the distinctively Nigerian name of my forebears. When asked about her origins, she said her mother was Norwegian but unfortunately she had never met her father before. Talk about sowing your wild oats! I've seen children that are half-Filipino and half-Nigerian! Half-Malaysian and even half-Indian! How he managed to convince the latter I will never know because Indians hardly ever marry outside their race! But trust my Bros! No woman is too hard to toast! Once he makes up his mind, he goes after her with a single-mindedness of a soldier on a special mission. Who can resist his charms?Which brings me to the next characteristic…
HIS "SWEET MOUTH"! How many times have you my sisters, sworn that you were going to "brain" that boyfriend of yours when you catch him in yet another escapade, only for him to turn up with an innocent-looking face, weaving his fabricated story of how he tripped and fell on his Aunt who happened to be wearing red lipstick, so that's how the mark got on his shirt! You know he's lying and sweet-talking you but you allow yourself (after initially raking) to soften and smile at his smooth flattery and corny jokes.E.g. "Mamarazzy-mamazita!The only woman wey fit turn Urhobo man to flying boat!No one but you!Every other woman is a counterfeit!" and you accept him, after all, you are too young to die of hypertension!This leads to yet another characteristic…
There is no denying it…Nigerian men are fine. Compare him to men from other nationalities. Is it the "yellow" ones from the East or the Caramel ones from the West? Or the dark chocolate from the North? Sure, there are some that are more "fearfully than wonderfully made" but generally our boys are fine!
And last but not the least…
He LOVES GOOD FOOD
That his woman should know how to cook should not even be up for negotiation. Recently, I was at a get together in Abuja for a group of African–Americans that had completed a project and were on their way back to the U.S. They were going on about how warm and hospitable the people were and the women among them (like true Americans!) said they wouldn't mind getting married to Nigerians and would like to be hooked up! Well, a crazy colleague of mine decide to take on the role of match-maker and started asking for their likes, preferences etc. As they were giving it one by one amidst much laughter, one of them dropped the bombshell that she couldn't cook.You could have heard a pin drop! The whole room went quiet. That, I can tell you, put paid to her "Nigerian-husband" ambition.
Overall, the Nigerian man may have his flaws (who doesn't?) but love him or hate him, he is who he is…and if the truth be told many of us Nigerian women wouldn't have him any other way…save for a little tweaking here and there!

Nike Air Max Pillar Black/Metallic Silver
TSG broke the news about the return of the Nike Total Air Pillar last October. The shoe is now known as the Air Max Pillar. A few original colorways will hit Nike retailers this year, including the Neon and Navy/Yellow colors. Nike Sportswear will also drop new Air Max Pillar colors throughout the year.
This particular colorway is Black/Metallic Silver, and it will see a Holiday 2012 launch. The first Air Max Pillar delivery should arrive at stores in the coming months.
Look for this color to hit NSW accounts in December. Retail is $180.

Holly's Fashionably Rustic Home in DC
House Tour
Name: Holly Thomas, Refinery29 DC
Location: Capitol Hill, Washington D.C.
Size: 500 square feet
Years lived in: 1 year; Renting
Holly Thomas is a do-it-yourself girl after one's own heart. With a background in journalism and a day job centered on finding cool haunts and thrifting treasure troves in the D.C area, this sweet southern transplant knows a thing or two about editing out the excess to find those rare birds of vintage paradise.
As the editor of DC Refinery29, Holly's daily duties involve seeking out great vintage shops, or thinking up ways to recreate or repackage fashion and found objects. And she does just that with her one-bedroom home in the beautiful Capitol Hill neighborhood of Washington, D.C.. Beautifully reclaimed furniture plays a practical and functional role. With the help of her boyfriend Paul she has built nearly all the installations and details by hand, from the sliding bathroom door made of salvaged barn wood, to the powder blue velvet upholstered headboard in her bedroom. Holly also runs the fashion line Butler and Claypool, which she operates out of her home, using the space as a showroom. She and her boyfriend also built each of the clothing racks out of salvaged wood and metal tubing. Juxtaposed with the dresses, bags, and jewelry from her collection, Holly's home also has a slight edge of masculinity about it. Deep mahogany furniture, navy, leather, loafers and fedoras mix beautifully with floral prints, velvet, and chevron printed lamps.
While the front portion of Holly's home serves as the showroom for her home, the back room serves as the work area. Spools of colored thread and yarn sit next to rulers and paint brushes, Mod Podge and a sewing machine. Personal touches like old family photos and family hand-me-downs help bring an added charm and warmth.
Apartment Therapy Survey:
My Style/Inspiration: It definitely has rustic and industrial touches. But I really like the Swedish country house look. I like Swedish everything — fashion, beauty — everything. I wanted it to feel comfortable but still really cool and unique. And I think I've gotten to the point where the furniture that I'm finding is stuff I'm going to keep forever.
Favorite Element: That I can do everything that I do here. I can work here. I can have my shop here. I can do my creative stuff in the back. It's a very natural and practical space. And I love that it's all been a big part of my relationship. Paul and I have done a lot of stuff together. Every little detail we've done together, and can say "Oh I painted that, or I built that, or Paul bought that on Craigslist."
Biggest Challenge: The doorways are really small! None of the big furniture fits through them. We've had to take a few pieces around the block and enter through the back door of the house if we wanted anything in the back room. I've had furniture wedged in the doorways when I was here by myself and I'm thinking "Great. Now I'm stuck."
What Friends Say: I think people think it's really cozy. They like to take naps on the couch. It's just a house made for comfort.
Biggest Embarrassment: Probably the front door. It's not really a nice color, but then if people need directions it's really easy to tell them to look out for the orange door.
Proudest DIY: The upholstered headboard! I can't even tell you how that came about. We had seen all these online tutorials about how easy it would be to do an upholstered headboard. Not so much initially. After I knew I wanted it to be powder blue velvet (it just popped in my head!), we went to Paul's mom's garage with all of our supplies. For some reason we forgot to measure the piece of plywood, and by that time we have already finished reupholstering it. When we brought it back to the house, that's when we saw it was way too big! Paul and his band were on tour and I started to wait until he was available to help me, but then I went ahead with a circular saw — I took it apart and reupholstered it on my own.
Biggest Indulgence: Mostly everything I own is either from flea markets or thrift stores. But going to Ikea is probably my biggest indulgence. Every time I go I spend at least $200. I don't know how! Having a lot of their little items that are $2 here or $5 there is really tempting.
Best Advice: You have to have too much and then start editing. You can't buy piecemeal and expect it all to be perfect. You have to buy what you love, and it's best to start with too much so you can edit down. Use Freecycle, use Craigslist. Collect as much you can and then figure out what you really want.
Dream Sources: I'd love to rent a U-Haul and go up to Brimfield in Massachusetts — I've seen bloggers and buyers get such incredible finds, and I know it'd be an amazing road trip. My second choice would be the 127 Sale, which is the world's longest yard sale — a 127-mile stretch of road between Alabama and Michigan, with secondhand goods all along the way. It seems like a picker's paradise!

I love this! So cozy. All the dark colors in the living room are my favorite - so many people want everything "light and breezy" so dark walls with dark brown furnishings done WELL makes me happy.
I love this home. The leather couch is amazing and I would love to have one of my own!
I LOVE that everything is thrifted/ DIY and that going to Ikea is her splurge! This is true design on a budget, and her place looks so warm and rich.
I like it.
The relaxing environment of this place is unreal! I'm enamored with all the rustic details. Has a very southern charm to it. What a place to call home!
i cant figure out how this is only 500 sq ft. floor plan would be much appreciated i'm not quite understanding how you fit so many sofas
I made one of those diy upholstered headboards. It's much more difficult (and expensive) than the blog tutorials make out.
I used gold dupioni for mine. It looks fantastic, but was a long, challenging and surprisingly physical project.
Thorndale: That's why I came here, to read the flag comments, lol.
Thanks for all the nice comments! It's a railroad apartment, so it's very long and narrow, with a showroom/office at the entry, a galley kitchen and a bedroom in the middle, and a den at the back of the apartment (which explains the two sofas!). It's basically a long shoebox -- hope that helps!
I wish I could paint but the landlords would have a coronary if I painted my apartment other than any shade of white. Not too many landlords would allow such a dark shade, did you decide to paint now and apologize later?
i super love the colors. and give meeee your chesterfield style soffaaaaa. :)
i really, really like this. i'd like to live here, and i don't usually say that about places on here. but i really dig this!
was going to make the move to DC in may, but it's just too expensive for me right now. philly, it is!
LOVE that dang couch in the showroom. great job :) my space is super minimal compared to this, but i love seeing little things all put together all over the place.
Your pad is truly awesome, Holly! You clearly have style, humor, and personality. Totally cool.
I really like homes like this that so clearly represent the personality of the one who lives there, but have a lot of flair and style as well.
I love your pad! I especially love your color palette. Leather, dark blues and whites! Yum.
Question: WHERE did you find that wonderful magnetic knife holder in the kitchen? I love the roughly rounded edges! it looks like pewter or something...
Your home is bold and distinct. Like a good bottle of whiskey. Love that leather couch with the dark wall.
You are like my twin. Same neighborhood, same paint color, same too small doorways that you have to pry furniture through. I would love to copy you in one other way if you can include a tutorial on those wood tubing garment racks.. Its weird, because like you, twin, i saw them on etsy a while ago and thought about trying it myself, but got pushed back on my DIY list behind reupholstering chairs and making lamps from gourds.
i assume by flag comments, people mean this:
Holly, your apartment is lovely. Your use of the American flag as a drapery/decoration, however, is against flag code. I am sure your intentions were innocent, but your use of the flag is disrespectful. If you do, indeed, wish to salute America, I would suggest putting a flagpole out on your porch...(just remember to take the flag down every night, unless you have a light on it all night)...
Based on the previous commenters' anticipation of flag comments, I suggest that apartmenttherapy does a section on patriotic decor that ABIDES by flag code. I have been seeing way too many flag pillows/drapes/table cloths etc recently. Egregious.
Gorgeous home, so unique and well curated.
@SJP I was painting over baby blue and yellow soccer-jersey-esque stripes, so the dark color is actually an improvement!
@rinconia The magnetic knife holder is from IKEA.
@dcmandy Will plan to do a DIY piping rack tutorial on the Butler & Claypool site!
Reminded of the old R&B song, Express Yourself. I was hooked on this tour from the first photo. Crates, tartan throw, bird prints? Oh yeh. While sleek, minimalist, designerish interiors oft featured here on AT are admirable, for me they are unnatural and unattainable. So much intriguing personality and confidence in 500 sq ft!
I am not a fan.
Floorplan please! Even a quick sketched one would be lovely to work out how it all fits together.
Beautiful, unique, interestingly decorated apartment, I long to go and have a wander round!
Love the sliding barn door and it's a genius (and cheap) way of installing. Do you find that it slides easily enough with those eye hooks and plumbing pipe?
I think your space is lovely...lots of treasures! Where did you find the brackets for your shelves? I think they would be perfect for some reclaimed wood I have from a cabin in Carmel.
I think some of the floor plan confusion come from it being a house, but only being one floor. A lot of houses in DC are plait up by floor into single units, apartments of condos. And soooo many of them have that weird add of porch/room in the back like someone went through block by block and did an addition on every house. Holly appears to be lucky enough to have the first floor and thereby the porch, color me jealous!
I love the place, I think it's really masculine, but in a way the works for a couple. And that Chesterfield is amazing. What your favorite used furniture sources in DC? It looks like a lot of your stuff is from day trips to the further 'burbs.
I'm a sucker for antlers, and she uses them perfectly! Dark colors are so hard to use without making a space seem small but here it looks absolutely cozy. Well done!
Hey, it's my neighborhood! :)
While it's practically the polar opposite of my personal style (I prefer feminine and airy decor) your apartment has a ton of personality and I adore that. I especially loved seeing your creative solutions for storing clothing and shoes. I'm guessing you live in a Victorian house with little or no closet space like most of us on the Hill.
Your comment about furniture getting wedged in doorways reminds me of the time I came home from work and my girlfriend announced that we had a problem. During a bout of rearranging she had attempted to move a small loveseat down our very narrow staircase where it became impossibly stuck. The two of us were eventually able to move the loveseat, but it was a beast to extricate. One of the many pleasures of living in a very old house!
Technically, that's not an American Flag. The fabric she has draped is all stars on one side, and all stripes on the other.
@DINABROWN- you mean, it's folded?
Visual overstimulation. Too much stuff.
@Katherine M.G. The brackets are from IKEA
@Jeslett In DC/closer-in 'burbs, I love GoodWood, Trohv, and Red Barn Mercantile, and occasionally find stuff at Miss Pixies. But Housing Works and Second Chance in Baltimore, plus Lucketts Store in Leesburg, are my all-time favorites.
Another woman with too much clothes and no closet space. It's currently my problem too. In my old rented apartment it had one closet and not in the bedroom. When it comes to rentals, garment racks are great, but when you own, it's nicer not to have to see it. The way its arranged still looks great though.
I love the dark paint both as the accent wall and the main attraction. I'm just not bold enough to use it. Loved the hanging door. It was an AT DIY for those who also like it.
I wish there was photos of the bathroom and the kitchen since I've never seen a layout quite like this before.
This is a little more my style. Only without the leather sofa (leather furniture gives me the heebeejeebees!). Love the rustic look going on within a place so uppity as DC! LOVE that desk!!! Barn door! Love it! But would like to see the bathroom and the kitchen area. Was surprised they were featured in the tour. Amazing amount of activity going on in such a tight space. Impressive.
Darn it! Meant to type "surprised they were NOT featured in the tour".
@ mec7812
Yes, you're so right. Someone needs to tell all the people responsible for the incredibly tacky overuse and disrespectful use of flags, flags, flags everywhere on the likes of Fox News (backdrops, graphics, pins, set decor, etc) and the Republican Convention (hats, clothes, jackets, chair pillows, drapery, swags, banners, tableskirts, etc). It really takes away from the special-ness of our flag when one-- as a focal point-- would have so much more impact and not seem like exploitation.
I love your space!
Why oh why do people here feel the NEED to nit pick the poor homeowners to pieces over stooopid stuff like--a hairdryer-in plain sight! The horror! And--a pair of jeans--on the WALL! Surely THIS is why the terrorists are winning.
If you don't like something--GO AWAY. Didn't you learn this in grade school?
I LOVE what she's done to the place. And I think a lot of people didn't READ the post --ya know; the part where it just happened to mention that she is running a BUSINESS out of one of the rooms here? One that REQUIRES clothing and decorative items to be on display? And in this small a space with NO closets or much other hidden storage she is doing well to CELEBRATE that fact with beautiful and interesting objects.
I make my living scouring thrift stores and flea markets and church sales and then re-selling the items. And a lot of times the ONLY place I have to put these is--hanging about the joint. I enjoy seeing them for the nonce and then--they fly away. And meantime because altho I live in a bigger place than this--I live with 6 OTHER people and all of THEIR stuff and 3 dogs and assorted creatures and little kids. And--none of us is Martha Stewart or on the staff at REAL SIMPLE. The minimilist lifestyle is great for SOME but in real life--not so much. Real life is-messy. And there are just so many sacrifices we can or are willing to make to look like modern day hermits owning nothing but a begging bowl.
Reality bites. Real life is amazing. Get over yourselves.
Where does she store her feet?

You've heard of quiver-of-one ski? Here's the quiver-of-one binding.
Look no further than Fritschi's Diamir Scout Binding with 95mm Brake when you need a balanced, all-mountain ski binder for dawn-patrol touring in moderate terrain and inbounds ripping off the lift. Although it's plenty light, this binder features uncompromising build quality and robust materials that ensure durability season after season. The walk mode is easy to access, the action is swift and smooth once you're skinning along, and the release system features a wide range of technologies design to absolutely minimize the opportunity for premature release. Both seasoned vets and recreational backcountry skiers will find the Scout Binding well suited to their use.
- Toe piece allows a wide 20mm of lateral movement before releasing the boot from the binding, which drastically reduces the opportunity for non-crash-related premature ejection
- Swivel anti-friction plate allows for consistent and friction-free sliding of the toe of the boot in the binding (important for touring and freeride boots with rubber soles)
- Heel piece allows for 13mm of vertical movement before releasing the boot from the binding, which also drastically reduces the opportunity for premature ejection
- Both toe and heel feature a mechanism with a high restoring force so the toe and heel of the boot are returned to alignment quickly in the event of lateral or vertical movement shy of the maximum release point
- Compact Technology is the core piece of this binding: a light and extremely torque-resistant module responsible for the front safety release and hinge support
- Compact Technology allows multiple binding functions to operate in a smaller package, thus reducing the non-mounted footprint and lowering overall weight
- Sliding binding-bar linkage allows the ski to flex naturally underneath the boot and between the mounting points of the binding
- Change from walk to ski mode without leaving your bindings by simply flipping a switch with the end of your ski pole
- Heel elevator is easy to flip up with your ski pole and offers four angles of inclination from three degrees to thirteen degrees
- Once mounted, binding has a position height of 37mm from the top edge of the ski
- Binding accommodates skis with waist measurement of 67mm+ and DIN ISO compatible touring and alpine ski boots

These binding are just right. Super affordable and function well. I'm an early intermediate skier and loving these bindings at Alyeska and backcountry.

I was born in Turkey lived in Istanbul for years. AFter having moved to other countries i finally ended up in Finland. I speak German and English. My Finnish level is not enough to have a conversation however i am learning more and more every day. I love Finland and its wonderful nature, which inspires me a lot for photography.
I bought my first DSLR after joining DA. It has been a year already. Ever since i've been photographing day and night, no matter what weather condition or no matter how tired i was. I experienced and learned a lot through this one year period and still learnig. In the beginning i was very limited with my equipment, but i've been upgrading it little by little.
Any honest comments are welcome. A negative comment is a great opportunity to see what could be done better. So don't hesitate for that
Thanks for reading this and viewing my page

The ONEness 2.0 concept was developed by Argon 18 to uniquely complement the E-118 time trial/triathlon frameset. The E-118 was the subject of an intensive research and development effort wherein Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) analysis had a decisive impact on the bike's aerodynamic efficiency.
This research demonstrated conclusively that it's the rider who generates up to 70% of aerodynamic drag in trying to maintain speed. This is what motivated the development of ONEness 2.0 and the AHB-7500 handlebar system. Together, these components work to help the rider improve aerodynamic efficiency by ensuring an ergonomically and aerodynamically effective position that's easily maintained over longer distances.
Setting up the ideal position begins with ONEness 2.0, a new system that quickly adjusts to two effective stem lengths of 65mm or 95mm, placing the base bar in the appropriate position based on Integrated Size Adjustment System licensed by Andy Muff.
Once the primary fore-aft adjustment has been set, a wide range of adjustment possibilities come into play thanks to the AHB-7500 handlebar. Designed as a single unit made of carbon fiber, this handlebar is an example of innovative technology applied to cycle components, weighing only 345 grams while offering an unequaled adjustment range. This not only makes the E-118 one of the most completely integrated bikes of its kind but also one of the most versatile in terms of positioning possibilities.
The base bar and tri-bar angles are adjustable and two types of tri-bar extensions are supplied with the E-118. The armrests offer a vertical range of 5cm, adjustable in 1 cm increments. Because the entire handlebar is reversible, a further 5 cm height increase is easily obtained, for a total range of 10 cm of armrest height variability.
The armrests feature 12 cm of lateral and 4 cm of fore-aft adjustment, making it simple to dial in the ideal configuration.
With such a wide range of positioning possibilities, the ONEness 2.0 and AHB-7500 combination is one of the most versatile cockpit set-ups available today. At Argon 18, we believe that a rider can only be optimally aerodynamic and maximizing energy output if he or she is comfortable and able to keep that efficient position for the duration of the race. It is truly a customized fit for riders of all shapes and sizes.

I do think the loot rules and the inability of the leader to directly kick is a bit upsetting. Unless they change the loot system so you can only roll on items that are beneficial for the spec you que as, I think this could lead to a large amount of ninjas. As for the leader being unable to kick, what if you are just filling the last 5 slots of a raid group and you want everyone to be in ventrilo or mumble. If anyone who ques doesn't want to get in you have to waste precious vote kicks on them and there is no guarantee you will ever get someone who will. Just one example but the leader not being able to kick puts me off a little. I would have liked for it to be slightly closer to the current raid finder in the fact that you can send descriptions to raid leaders of what you can do so that the raid leaders have a bit of choice. That could cause elitism but I think it would be better than getting someone who believes 10k dps is acceptable for current content. Despite these flaws I am really looking forward to this system. Hurray for casual pugging on alts! This is a gift from heaven to us time constrained players.

time already served. The incident, took place in September 2010, when his ex-girlfriend accused him of hitting her multiple times in the head with his fist, and threatened to kill her. Taking a plea deal, Floyd pled guilty to
misdemeanor domestic violence, in exchange for getting a felony battery charge. He also pled no contest to two misdemeanor harassment charges, threatening to
beat the children during the incident. Knowing that the incident happened in front of the children really pissed the Judge off. Along with the time serving, he must complete 100 hours of community service, a 12 month domestic violence program, and pay a fine of $2,500 which is nothing when you're a part of the #MONEYTEAM

ActRaiser may have gotten lost alongside such classics as Super Mario World and Castlevania IV, but it deserves it's place in the pantheon of early SNES greats with its unique mix of action and town simulation stages.

Searching for multifaceted solutions in the wake of Sandy Hook
With the flurry of conversations happening in the aftermath of the massacre in Connecticut on Friday, I've been tracking several threads and thoughts. In lieu of a full-blown analysis, I'm collecting them here and inviting conversation. [And I mean conversation— rhetoric and drum-beating from any political angle are not welcome in my comments.]
1. On Facebook, I started asking for a nuanced conversations. My friend Dina summed up what a nuanced position might look like in her comment.
[…] To me, context is everything, and gun laws should reflect that. We have to make it possible for those who can prove they know how to handle them to have access to the tools they need; we also need to make sure that it's tremendously difficult for the unstable and the criminals to get them to wreak havoc and destroy families and lives. We have a system now where we do this with cars, another ubiquitous and dangerous tool in our society. The answer isn't really that far away.
2. My friend Kurt tweeted: "Are laws the drugs of society? 'Here take a pill. Make a law. That'll fix it.' I think we need a holistic cure here." I'm with him. Laws can be band-aids. How do we also change a culture soaked in violence? I'm unwilling to cry out for new laws without addressing this. Especially when the old laws are so broken.
3. Broken laws. This piece spells out a lot:
[…] There were calls to ban "automatic" weapons, though fully automatic weapons are already illegal, and the Newtown shooter used semiautomatics. There were also calls to reinstate the assault-weapons ban, a notion that White House spokesman Jay Carney said yesterday, remains "a commitment" for the President. Such a law would probably cover the type of Bushmaster M4 assault rifle that the shooter used on Friday. But even when it was originally passed in 1994, the ban was a highly compromised piece of legislation. It only covered sales after the effective date of the law, so any assault weapon already in private possession was effectively grandfathered in. And, of course, there was a spike in gun sales before the enactment of the law. […]
I also appreciate Marc Cooper's post on Facebook about the futility and waste of political capital on an assault weapons ban.
Let me tell you what the ban will NOT do: it will not ban semi-automatic rifles or handguns which have been around since the 19th century and which are as common to guns as Fords are to cars. It will not ban fully automatic weapons (i.e. machine guns) because they are already illegal in the U.S.
4. Effective laws coupled with technological innovations and culture change do make a difference. Here's an infographic showing a timeline of car fatalities in the US along with laws that were enacted, as well as safety innovations that were adopted. We also taught people culturally in the last century that cars were not toys, not weapons, not to be taken lightly. Where is the maker hackathon to make this part of our culture better and safer?
5. The gun-lobby being unwilling to budge while many of their members believe in change—e.g., stronger background checks. I think about a gun conversation I had a while ago with my dad (a conservative gun-owner); he believes that the enforcement of existing laws, for example, is not happening. I think that's true. It shows, for me, however, yet another decline in investing in the overall health & safety of our citizens by not having the funding or wherewithal to enforce these laws.
6. I do sympathize with the people that were tweeting and posting the note that when the would-be shoe-bomber showed up, we were all taking off our shoes at the airport the next day, and still do. But the needle on less violence via guns never moves.
7. The complicated role of access to mental health care in the US:
- the stigma and the cost preclude many from getting it, which leads to instability of all kinds, not just violence
- this piece from a parent of a child with mental illnesses that produce violent outbursts
- this counterpoint piece pointing out its problems, including the added stigma the author uses and the hollow, misplaced solidarity attempts when people use language like, "I am [victim/perpetrator]"
- my friend Lindsay, who, as always, brings thoughtfulness to the conversation and addresses both pieces
8. The race lines that are drawn when talking about guns in America, and the absence of the bigger picture that actually includes people of color and violence against them when we talk about massacres in predominantly white suburbs. A review of "Bowling for Columbine" from 10 years ago by Garance Franke-Ruta captures this well for me.
9. The tinge of frustration I feel when others point to how other countries deal with weapons. The reality is that American culture is different, and there are 90 guns for every 100 people in this country. Those that wish guns weren't here are ignoring this reality. Buyback programs in other countries have worked; they could only work here with significant culture change accompanying them.
10. For all of my deep-seated belief in non-violence and my own unwillingness to have guns, I still believe that the way is through this, not against it or each other, not running end-games around it. I'm not convinced that our political system will allow for that.

What's the value of a logo? Ask a company like Nike and you might say millions of dollars – but the truth is that, in 1971, Nike paid $35 for their logo.

Learning Management System Comparison
A good learning management system comparison is not easy to do especially with so many LMSes and EMSes (Education Management System) choices available today. Just off the top of my head there is Haiku LMS, Blackboard LMS, Canvas LMS, Cornerstone LMS, and so on.
And with so many options there are even more organization relying on them to deliver their training as well as a complete platform for their online courses, most notably the Army LMS and McDonald LMS, we decided to compare the leading software systems from each license type category.
We chose Moodle from the open source license group, and Blackboard from the commercial license group. Both are best of bread portals for today's education institutions.
The main categories that should be important to you when choosing an LMS are: Ease of use (for administration, faculty and student), vendor support (response time, training), system reliability (down times), and actual costs.
Ease of Use
From our research we came to the conclusion that for administrative purposes both blackboard and moodle (also known as moodle rooms) are equal in installation and setup. the one advantage that blackboard has it is well document manuals, troubleshooting guides, and general support. of course you pay for such organization but that is well worth it when it makes the administration a breeze.
faculty also has an easier time with blackboard, including non novice users and the none too tech savvy users. mentions of less clicking, and easier setup of classes were the main points that won with faculty. However, they did mention that moodle was much more flexible in terms of the look and feel of the class, how it was organized, and that the general flow and style was in control of the teacher.
On the other hand, students preferred moodle's interface, even though some had difficulty with the navigation and organization of the document view. Students are known to be more tech savvy in general so they had a much easier time learning both systems. but this too came with mixed results as some students thought the interface was too cluttered and confusing.
Actual Cost
This is a no brainier. Moodle is free and blackboard isn't. But the actual cost as an organization like yourself should consider is the time to manage, train, and generally support internally. And in that sense blackboard is well worth its hefty price tag.
For a truly proper learning management system comparison we would suggest using both side by side and actually installing and setting up both programs, creating classes, and using the classes to really get a good feel for both systems before making such a major decision.

Mutsumi convinced me to go back to Morimoto tonight for yet another round of her beloved uni carbonara. As I wanted something different, I asked the sushi chef if he had anything off menu. He said they had just gotten in a local Hawaiian fish called 'moi' he could slice up for me. So I went with it… and had the best pieces of sushi of the entire trip! I found the moi, which is also known as Threadfin, to be firm in texture, while fatty and buttery in taste, almost a cross between tai and toro. Simply fabulous!
If you ever see moi on a menu, order it!

'Russia Today' D.C. correspondent quits live on-air
I've posted blogs before about how the Russians (and the Chinese) have sought to expand their media platforms here in the United States -- without reciprocal accomodation for the Voice of America/Radio Liberty/Radio Free Asia on THEIR soil.
For example, the Voice of Russia is now available 24/7 in New York and Washington. (VoR began hiring U.S. journalists in Washington.)
At the same time, RT - the first Russian 24/7 English-language, news channel - has been expanding its presence. Its website includes news from around the United States not necessarily getting very much coverage in U.S. mainstream media. (Kind of the reverse of what Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty/Radio Free Asia/Radio Marti do in targeting their respective countries.)
It was probably inevitable with the biggest post-Soviet crisis between East and West: A D.C. correspondent for RT announced her resignation on-the-air Wednesday, accusing the network of whitewashing the actions of Vladimir Putin. (Give RT a little credit: At least some producer didn't pull the plug on her in the middle of a sentence!)
Here's an account from The NEW YORK DAILY NEWS:
Liz Wahl later told The DAILY BEAST she had been contemplating a resignation for some time; tried her best to be 'objective' under the circumstances; but felt the wrath of her superiors...
As far as RT, it's doing its very best offering the Russian perspective on Ukrainian developments. Here's a rather succinct summary of the arguments...
More analysis from a Russian perspective with Dr. Mikhail Molchanov, Professor of Political Science at St. Thomas University in Fredericton, New Brunswick, Canada; Author, POLITICAL CULTURE & NATIONAL IDENTITY in RUSSIAN--UKRAINIAN RELATIONS; Co-Editor, UKRAINE's FOREIGN & SECURITY POLICY...

I guess Larry King is fine with Vlad since he's still working for Russia Today.
Allan Loudell
Thu, Mar 6, 2014 8:52am
I'm afraid I've always thought of Larry King as a media whore.
Never understood his appeal.
When then-Mutual Radio was trying to sell the original Larry King overnight show to potential affiliates, I remember persuading the general manager of a Memphis radio station NOT to take his show!
I disliked King's entire approach: Barking the names of cities for each caller; his gruff voice & attitude; and apparent (even then) lack of preparation with his guests.
So different from the erudite Chicago talk-show hosts I had grown up to.

Actually I enjoyed RT's perspective. Instead of taking it as truth, I would take it as the truth inside the Russian mind. It was primarily through their coverage that one was able to figure out what the Russians were thinking.
It may have become more one-sided over the past two days.
I was very impressed on Monday when she took live time to denounce the Russian involvement... The immediate comparison was over how many U.S. jounalists quit over having to demonize the Iraqis and all Muslims in order to drum up support for the Iraq invasion... None.
I thought RT handled the embarrassment rather well, when they tweeted, "since she expressed on air that she was not fully cognitive of all the issues in Ukraine, we have decided to transfer to Ukraine to allow her that opportunity."
Hilarious... rather well done, actually...
It would be nice if Americans had half the fortitude as she, and quit every time their bosses told them to report something all knew was not true...
Fox News would be all over the Craigslist's help wanteds.

I do go to RT's website several times a week (along with the Voice of Russia, Moscow Times, etc.)
No different from the time, as a kid, I listened to Radio Moscow on shortwave, just to see what "the other side" was saying! (Also listened to Radio Kiev, Radio Vilnius, and Radio Tashkent -- in English)
I do think your perspective on U.S. coverage of Iraq is misleading, however, when you say that American journalists were expected to demonize the Iraqis, let alone Muslims.
The psychology of that time was rather interesting. Remember, the neo-cons kept saying that we were demonizing the Iraqis if we assumed they were not capable of a democracy. Put in another way, the United States sought to build resilient, democratic institutions in Germany and Japan after WWII; was it not arrogant and even ethnocentric to assume the Iraqis were not capable of democracy?
(What the neo-cons grossly underestimated, however, was that Germany and Japan were much more modern nation-states, and didn't suffer the profound ethnic/religious divide of Iraq. Furthermore, a Shi'a-dominated, democratic Iraq would naturally tilt towards Iran, and wouldn't necessarily be any more inclined to establish a normal relationship with Israel!)
As far as U.S. media coverage - and I've noted this before - the Iraq war had both pro- and anti-war factions on the Right AND the Left.
Of course, we had stupid, petty skirmishes at the time. As when FOX anchors wore U.S. flag lapels, and anchors on the traditional networks generally did not. And then we'd waste airtime and/or column inches to a "debate" on what I regarded as a senseless, manufactured issue!
Allan Loudell
Thu, Mar 6, 2014 6:20pm
Ha. You bring it all back.. and some things never change, particularly with Fox.
I agree, that probably my recollection of the demonization of Iraq was not accurate. What I was thinking was the lack of elaboration of what it would take to subdue the Iraqis, and on that topic, the Neo-Cons got a clean slate to offer only their view, without a hard going-over by the press, and I think despite the largest public demonstrations I've ever seen in America - those which were against our going to war - only on C-Span in the Senate did those anti-involvement questions ever get explored, and of course, very few Americans ever saw them. There was the internet at the time, but not much of one. Even I was a newbie to it then; I think anything other than html took absolutely forever to load across a modem plugged into one's ground line.. and so, the mainstream media were all one had.
However, in Iraq there was a lot of love for the U.S. invasion, up until the moment Brenner came in and said... the U.S. is taking 80% of the profits off all Iraqi oil until we pay off the war... That weekend, the first bomb went off...
Had we treated Germany and Japan in similar fashion, their conversions to democracy might have been equally as difficult. As an example, East Germany had to be subdued by force. I know a lot of East Germans were carted away and presumably killed. Compared to the Russians, the West Germans had a benevolent master.
Fighting one's oppressor is the natural extension of human action, unless of course, that oppressor is holding the door open to a very bright future...

Don't expect too much from Putin if we penalize the rich Russians. They don't like Putin; he doesn't like them. Putin is currying favor with the nationalistic Russians, probably still high off of Sochi. Unlike America, which worships wealth, and whose government kowtows to wealth, wealth in Russia has always been disliked. It certainly didn't work well for Czar Nicholas or Alexandra.
What no one has really focused on, is that Russia's equivalent of our Senate voted unanimously for military action in the Ukraine.. This isn't the old Soviet Duma which was appointed by one party. These are representatives elected by real people with at least 4 different parties... and accountable to real people in their districts. They knew what they were doing.
Which means, a substantial majority of Russians are behind this... It will take general sanctions to apply pressure to all of Russia before political pressure affects Putin, and the net result of that after the give-and-take settles down, would mean Europe would go without gas. If they do, it means a solid third of America's natural gas must go to Europe... Most likely from the Bakken Shield near us, piped underground to terminals on either the Hudson and Delaware rivers... Guaranteed if Wilmington's port had been sold to Kinder Morgan, ships would be lined up waiting to be filled..
So penalizing the rich Russians who own foreign assets helps Putin with his core constituency which actually would enjoy seeing them suffer some discomfort at the hands of the West, and drive them back to his camp out of necessity, if for no other reason.
But at this point, it is something and really all we can do.

An article in the Washington Post does a good job showing how Russia, the West and the E.U. view Ukraine and gives insight into the history of the Ukraine. Below is an excerpt from the article�but the full article�s link is posted at the bottom of my post.
�Far too often the Ukrainian issue is posed as a showdown: whether Ukraine joins the East or the West. But if Ukraine is to survive and thrive, it must not be either side�s outpost against the other � it should function as a bridge between them.
The Ukrainians are the decisive element. They live in a country with a complex history and a polyglot composition. The Western part was incorporated into the Soviet Union in 1939, when Stalin and Hitler divided up the spoils. Crimea, 60 percent of whose population is Russian, became part of Ukraine only in 1954, when Nikita Khrushchev, a Ukrainian by birth, awarded it as part of the 300th-year celebration of a Russian agreement with the Cossacks. The west is largely Catholic; the east, largely Russian Orthodox. The west speaks Ukrainian; the east speaks mostly Russian. Any attempt by one wing of Ukraine to dominate the other � as has been the pattern � would lead eventually to civil war or break-up. To treat Ukraine as part of an East-West confrontation would scuttle for decades any prospect to bring Russia and the West � especially Russia and Europe � into a cooperative international system.�

Today is Take Your Dog to Work Day, which started in 1999 to show how dogs make great companions and to encourage dog adoption. It has grown into a popular annual event worldwide, considering the growing trend of pet ownership and making pets part of the family.
Of course, not everyone has a job that would allow animals in the workplace. But there are many companies which offer a more relaxed environment that do offer this as an employee perk. With more and more people having the ability to work from home, some employers determined to keep their staff in the office are offering aspects of home life to be integrated into the workplace.
Does your office allow pets? If you are a dog owner, would you bring your pet to work if you were allowed to? Do you think pets should be allowed in the workplace?

CHENEY, Wash.--Several school districts in Eastern Washington are taking part in a culinary boot camp in hopes to add healthier lunch systems to their high school cafeterias.
Some options on the new menu included a salad bar with fresh vegetables, macaroni and cheese and lentils. The food was all made from scratch.
Cooks at Cheney High School were back at school for a week in July for a culinary boot camp. They were learning how to make healthy food from scratch. The new cooking methods took more effort but were not more expensive than traditional cafeterias that served processed foods.
"Cooking this way is financially sustainable. You just reduce a lot of your costs from processing which is really exciting because a lot of schools think it's too expensive," said Sarah Limon with Empire Health Foundation.

(01/27/14) - Flint's Bishop International Airport is putting out the "help wanted" sign later this year.
Airport director Jim Rice will formally announce resignation plans at Tuesday's board meeting. He's expected to stay on the job until early October.
Rice was hired in 1990, becoming the first - and only - person to serve as director under the Airport Authority, which was formed three years earlier.
A Bishop press release says a nationwide search will be conducted to find his replacement.

Here's a special twist on a special date.
Bryan Londerville and Sarah Grabko had planned to get
married in the fall, but they decided to take a different, and unique, leap of
The couple decided to say their vows on a once-in-a-lifetime
day: 12/12/12.
"Epic," said Grabko "It's an epic date. That is what we were going for."
"We wanted something epic," added Bryan.
So, whose idea was it to get married on this day?
"Sarah's," said Londerville.
said Grabko.
Either way, the race to get married was on. Bryan and Sarah
started planning for their big night just a little more than week ago.
"We didn't think it really would work quite as easy as
it did," said Grabko. "Whoever
said we couldn't do it. We proved them wrong."
The couple added an extra twist by holding the ceremony at Marshfield's Winter Wonderland.
Now, these newlyweds have a special moment they'll always
remember. Happily married, just in time for their first Christmas together, on
a date that won't come again in their lifetime.

Buffalo plugs Atom into TeraStation NAS
Summary: The four additions to the TeraStation range for small businesses swap in Intel dual-core Atoms for the previous Marvell chips and come with drives pre-installed
1 of 3Image
The refreshed Buffalo TeraStation NAS range
Buffalo has plugged Intel's Atom into its TeraStation range of network-attached storage (NAS) products, aimed at small businesses.
The four new appliances, launched on Tuesday, come equipped with the dual-core Atom D510 processor, rather the Marvell chips used previously in the range, the Dutch company said. The TeraStation ProDuo, TeraStation Quad, TeraStation 6 Bay and TeraStation 8 Bay — the names reflect how many bays they have — are all available now.
The eight-bay appliance (pictured) comes with two 1GbE ports, so one can feed out for access to the network and another can be used to replicate data through to a separate TeraStation. It can run Raid in its standard, 0, 1, 5, 6, 10, 50, 51, 60 and 61 configurations, with the higher configurations providing greater redundancy.
The TeraStations are shipped with a full complement of drives. The drives may be sourced from any major hard-disk drive (HDD) manufacturer — Toshiba, Western Digital or Seagate, for example — though customers do not have a choice of provider. However, the drives are "tested to the point where we're confident about our products", said Paul Hudson, sales director for Northern Europe for Buffalo.
If a drive fails, Buffalo will supply a replacement, provided it is under warranty. However, it will not say which manufacturer provided the failed drive or give the customer the option of moving to a different brand.
Prices start at £294 for a ProDuo, £285 for a Quad, £822 for a 6 Bay and £998 for an 8 Bay. Drive size can go up to 3TB per HDD, so a maxed-out 8 bay TeraStation will have 24TB of storage.

A new Windows Storage Server appliance
Buffalo also launched a Windows Storage Server based on the TeraStation design. It comes pre-installed with Windows Storage Server 2003 R2 and supports Raid 0, 1, 5 and standard. It is available with 2TB or 4TB of capacity.
The company is taking a similar approach to HP, which is targeting small businesses with low-cost servers and associated hardware. Buffalo hopes the fact it pre-installs and integrates the drives will tempt businesses to use its kit, Hudson said.
