You know you're a mom when ...
It gives you great joy, pleasure and satisfaction to remove the boogers and ear wax out of your baby. And you look forward to it.
You refer to baby as "we." "We really need a good snowsuit for winter."
You've seen it all and aren't phased: poop squirting on your face, all over your hands, on the hotel bed, in the tub. Nothing bothers you. Nothing.
You call baby's poop, poops and pee, pees because it's so cute when she "makes her poops" and "makes her pees."
It's cute when she farts. "Are you making your toots?!"
You call baby every name of food and every combination of food in the English language. "Good morning pumpkin pie sugar muffin apple dumpling sweet pea potato knish pomegranate berry pot pie strudel crumb cake!"
You call yourself "Mommy." All the time. For everything. In third person.
"Mommy's gonna put you down in your bouncy seat so Mommy can get a drink of water and Mommy's going to dress you in your leopard leggings and Mommy loves you so much and Mommy needs to make a phone call and Mommy's going to make you a bottle and Mommy thinks it's time for you to take a nap."
You can't stop kissing her cheeks. They're so fluffy and juicy and delicious. It's like each kiss gives you energy and power to conquer the world. Just.One.More. I need my fluffiness. It's like her cheeks hold the sweet nectar that keeps me alive.
She looks cute when she cries. Even when she screams.
You don't mind when she spits up or drools all over you: skin, clothes, wherever.
You can't stop staring into her eyes when she's looking at you. Ever. You can't take your eyes off hers.
Your heart gets that heart-warm-fluttery-can't-explain-joyous-blissful feeling when you see her after you haven't seen her for a while - in the morning, after daycare, when she wakes up from a nap.
You love EVERY INCH of her: her chubby little fingers, ridiculously tangly hair that juts out in every which direction, her tiny little toenails that somehow get lint in them.
Everything is a song when you talk to your baby. Life becomes one long song.
Everything becomes a song.
Adele has turned our words into lyrics, our movements into dance, our thoughts into sweet sounding melodies.

Planning my wedding while coping with breast cancer, and life beyond.
First half marathon!

On my toes wearing many hats
There's no real good way to start, so I'll just delve right in.
Since Ireland and since the summer ended it's been work, Adele, the Jewish holidays, Tour de Pink, Team Pink and Pears fundraisers, Little Black Dress Goes Pink Fashion show, PA Breast Cancer Coalition conference workshop preparation and planning committee for traveling photo exhibit, plans with friends, family visiting, oh, and I'm training for a half-marathon.

Some of those things in the above paragraph have passed, but with it being Breast Cancer Awareness Month I've been busy, busy, busy doing my part to raise funds. Sean and I walked the runway in the Pink Zone's third annual fashion show this past weekend, the day after Yom Kippur. The week before, we were in Philly and Reston for Rosh Hashanah, just days after Tour de Pink, which Team Pink and Pearls ROCKED! Congrats to the team on completing the ride and raising more than $14,000 for the Young Survival Coalition! Prior to that I was busy planning the team's final fundraiser, a Stella & Dot party, which brought in more than $300 for the team. And planning and celebrating Sean's birthday on Sept. 30. And I was getting fitted for the fashion show, writing thank-you notes, TRYING to catch up on my book club reads, doing laundry, being a mom, working full time….
Now, as the Jewish holidays are over, Tour de Pink is over, and the Pink Zone fashion show is over, I am busy prepping my workshop for the PBCC conference in Harrisburg on Monday, and am gearing up for PBCC's photo exhibit opening reception at Mount Nittany Medical Center on Oct. 23, and have officially registered and started training for my first half marathon (my 13.1 before I turn 30 campaign) in December, PLUS I'm still being a mom and working full time and trying to do laundry and sleeping when Adele sleeps which means I'm not doing laundry and I'm definitely not reading my book club book.
But it is all so amazing.
|The night before Tour de Pink East Coast 2014: wearing matching "good luck" sister bracelets
Following my squeaky clean breast MRI in August, I had a squeaky clean oncologist appointment a few weeks ago – blood looks great so I keep on going!
|Tour de Pink! Day 2 waiting at one of the rest stops in Delaware.
|Morning of day 3!
I made this promise to myself, many months ago (right around my 10 miler in March) that I was going to run a half marathon before my 30th birthday, which is also in December. A half marathon is the next logical step in my "running career" and I couldn't think of a better way to celebrate life and celebrate the big flirty 30 than with this ultimate challenge. It was this ONE LAST THING, I PROMISE.
Then came our little blessing Adele, and my running (and bathing and sleeping) took a back seat to motherhood.
My promise to myself still stands. I will still run a half marathon for my 30th birthday. Will it be the best half marathon? No. Will it be the fastest? No. Will I train really well? No.
When I was running full time and training for my 10 miler, I had a part time job and no baby.
Now I have a full time job and a baby.
So I'm not going to have tons of time to train. So I'll run when I can and I'll do the best I can do, given these circumstances. Honestly I'm not going to drive myself crazy and stress myself out about training. I will run when I can and do MY best half marathon, no matter how slow it is.
It was my goal and it still is my goal. I have a baby now. Less time to run. But I'm still going to do it. It just won't be phenomenal. But it will be MY best, and that's all that matters. No matter how slow, I'll get to the finish line and I'll celebrate 30 with this tremendous accomplishment.
ADELE IS A JOY!!!! Now she's grabbing for her toys with both hands, fully holding her bottle, almost sits up on her own, reaches for Mom and Dad, talks and babbles and blows bubbles, grabs her feet and puts them in her mouth, and she is HUGE! She will be 6 months at the end of October. Amazing. We have finished our three post-placement visits and are waiting on a court date, which I'll remind you: may not be until November or December.
She is growing and doing beautifully. A full head of curly hair I already have trouble keeping tangles out of. Oh, and her cheeks. They are rosy ALL THE TIME FOR NO REASON AT ALL. She is such a beauty. Long eyelashes. Gorgeous plump cheeks. A true, true joy.
|Little Black Dress Goes Pink fashion show Oct. 5
|LOVE my sparkly red dress! Thanks Diamonds and Lace (where I bought my wedding gown) for dressing me!
|My second outfit was a gorgeous Betsey Johnson nightgown from Jezebel's Boutique!
So I feel like I'm wearing many hats. Have a lot of ducks. But they're all in a row and I don't feel out of control or stressed. I feel joy. So much joy at my beautiful life.
I am so honored to be able to be a part of the PA Pink Zone and PA Breast Cancer Coalition and share my story and potentially help other women and help bring in the funds for these organizations and their programs. And I am blessed with my health to train for a half marathon, and my health to carry a nearly 20 pound baby (she was 17 lbs, 7 oz at her 4-month checkup after Ireland!) up and down the steps.
I am blessed with my husband and my daughter and my amazing job, which keeps me on my toes. And my husband who keeps me on my toes. And my daughter who keeps me on my toes. And my dog who keeps me on my toes.
And myself.
And now, since I jumped right into this post, I'll jump right out with two quotes:
"Go the extra mile, it's never crowded."
"Any idiot can run. But it takes a special kind of idiot to run a half marathon."

Team Pink and Pearls did it! Tour de Pink East Coast 2014 is completed and more than $14,000 has been raised for the Young Survival Coalition! Congrats Team Pink and Pearls! Sean, Julie, Dan and Danny blew it out of the park and I am so proud and honored! More pics on the way soon. Until then ...

Tour de Pink 2015? We're in.
Team Pink and Pearls WILL RIDE AGAIN.

In four days ...
Dear friends and family,
A year has passed and another Tour de Pink is quickly approaching. Last year I rode more than 213 miles in three days from Philadelphia to Washington, D.C. That weekend was one of the best and one of the most life-changing experiences of my life. Now, one year later, my husband Sean, my sister-in-law Julie, her boyfriend Dan and our friend Danny have formed Team Pink and Pearls and will take on the challenge in my honor and in the honor of all young women affected by breast cancer. Because young women CAN and DO get breast cancer. I found answers, safety and a sense of community with the Young Survival Coalition. That's why I rode. That's why Team Pink and Pearls is riding this year.
Although I am not physically pedaling the miles, I will be cheering on the team with our beautiful daughter Adele, who will enter the amazing TdP family in just a few short days. I have no doubt TdP and the YSC will also become her family; they are a group of passionate, strong and inspirational men and women who fight every day for themselves, for their wives, for their sisters, for their daughters. They fight by putting their feet to the pedals, by pushing up the hills and by raising money to ensure no young woman faces breast cancer alone.
This year Team Pink and Pearls has committed to raising $12,500 for the YSC. I am overwhelming happy to report we are just $19 away from goal. Whether you shop Stella & Dot or make a direct donation online, now is the time to bring the team home. With your donation, young women across the country will have the support they need while fighting a disease that is often overlooked in younger women. The YSC gave me so much. It's my turn this year, and for every year of my life, to give back. For all women and the men who love them.
Team Pink and Pearls, in my eyes, has already accomplished the biggest challenge of all: committing to the ride, training for the ride, and raising nearly $12,500. You guys did it! Now, get on your bike and pedal! Whether you ride 1 mile or 300 miles you have already touched so many lives. Just remember that. You've already done it. You've already made it this far. Now, Team Pink and Pearls, now is the fun part!
Thank you for your ongoing support, love, encouragement and passion. And thank you for believing in us and believing in the cause.
We're not just pink. We're pink and PEARLS.

I cannot believe I haven't posted about Ireland yet! (pics soon!)
It's been crazy .... (when is it not?!)
Anyway, we are all well here! Adele had her 4 month checkup and is in 95th percentile for height and weight! She clocked in at 17 pounds 7 ounces, and 26 inches long:) We are so happy! She is lovely and thriving and SO beautiful!
Today's post is a quick one:
I am celebrating 17 years since my Leukemia diagnosis. I was diagnosed on this day, Sept. 12, in 1997.
17 years later and I have nothing short of the world.
September is also childhood cancer awareness month. During my Leukemia treatment I met MANY families and children. Many of those Leukemia patients are alive and thriving today (I keep tabs on Facebook) and many lost their battle. My mom and Aunt Ann lost their brother, David (my uncle), to Leukemia when he was 2 years old.
As I celebrate life I remember those who are still fighting, not just Leukemia, but all childhood cancers.
Thank you for your love and blessings.

A letter to my daughter
Dear Adele,
You are almost four months old! I was just thinking today how excited I am for you to pick your very own American Girl doll, just like Mommy has. I got "Anna" when I was in 6th grade. I picked her because she had brown hair and brown eyes.
I can't wait for you to pick your dolly, to look just like you, and name her whatever you want. We can wait until you're a little older for that. You have so many dollies and lovies already. When you're 7 or 8 you can truly appreciate a dolly that looks just like you, and care for her and dress her and bring her along wherever you go, just like Mommy did when she was a little girl.
I want you to know Daddy and I are so excited to see you grow up. You are so smart and have already accomplished so much! We can't wait to see what you'll look like as you continue to develop. Dad thinks you will be taller than both of us, and I don't disagree.
Just like my mom (your Grandma Ruth) taught me, you can be anything you want to be, and Dad and I will support all of your interests and passions, whether you choose ballet or swimming or soccer or art or basketball or clarinet or dance or magic tricks or something completely unheard of or all of the above. You can try all the activities you want.
I want to teach you how to be a strong girl who turns into a strong woman. This doesn't just mean standing up for yourself and following what you believe in. It doesn't just mean doing the right thing even when nobody's looking, or telling the truth even if it's not the most popular thing to do.
It means loving and trusting those around you. Let your friends and family in, and let them help you and support you. Some of Mommy's best friends are friends she's had since preschool. That is no accident. When you find good friends, keep them. They will be your soul mates throughout life. Treat them right.
It means believing in your dreams and passions, even if they seem silly. Draw, write, play. Experience and explore. Find what interests you and embrace it. It may change every day, or it may never change. Let it change, let it evolve. But never let it out of your sight.
It means being good to yourself. Be good to your body. Nourish it, fuel it, treat it right. It means loving your body, no matter what it looks like. It means trying new foods. Eating your fruits and vegetables. Getting exercise. (Taking Campbell for a walk counts.) It means feeling comfortable in your skin. As a girl and woman there is a lot of negativity around body talk. You will be subjected to that. You can't ignore it. It's in school, on TV, in the newspapers. There is talk about dieting and looking a certain way. You will feel challenged, you will feel confused. But your body is your own, and it's not meant to look like anyone else's.
It means being honest with Mom and Dad. Tell us when something is wrong. Ask us questions. Ask for explanations. Always, always ask. Like your teachers will tell you: there is no such thing as a stupid question.
The very best way to be a strong girl and a strong woman is to be YOU. Trust your heart, trust your instincts, trust your drive, trust your story. Mom and Dad will be here every step of the way. We will guide you and then let you fly. We will love you, no matter what. That is called unconditional love. We will always love you and always be proud of you. Nothing you can ever do or say will change that.
I give you permission to cut Barbie's hair. Mommy did that as a way of experimenting with different hair styles. (It was not done out of malice; simply out of curiosity)
I give you permission to stay up past your bedtime, only in the case of classical movies playing on TV on the weekend. And only if Mom and Dad say it's OK.
I give you permission to not eat all of your brussels sprouts, as long as you try one. (But then next time you have to try two.)
I give you permission to put one sugary cereal in the shopping cart per trip.
I give you permission to cry on your birthday. All of them if you need to.
I give you permission to stay in the bathtub until you turn into a prune.
I give you permission to dress yourself and pick out your own outfits the moment you want to.
I give you permission to color outside the lines. I give you permission to make the sun blue and the grass purple and the cow orange.
And a few more things:
1. No makeup until discussed. (And I'll know if you sneak it at school)
2. Always brush your teeth before bed
3. No reading in the dark
4. Don't put your Flintstones vitamins behind the washing machine instead of eating them. Mommy did this, so she knows where to look.
5. Never hit or pull hair. Treat others the way you'd want to be treated
6. Don't name-call. If something or someone upsets you, use your words
7. Raise your hand before speaking up in class
8. Always say "please" and "thank you," including when ordering at a restaurant
9. Don't draw on the wall and then stand in front of it to hide it. Mommy also did this so she knows where to look.
10. Love all animals and respect them. For strange dogs you don't know, always ask the owner if it is OK to pet them. Animals have feelings. Treat them nicely. We will go to the petting zoo so you can see all the animals and what they look like and feel like.
11. Mommy will give you her pink dollhouse so you can rearrange the rooms and furniture however you like.
12. Nature is a blessing. Love and respect your surroundings: trees, plants, flowers, bugs. Smell the flowers. Pick up (not all) the bugs. Shade yourself under a tree. Help Mom plant a garden, help Dad water the flowers. Plant your own garden. Grandma Ruth let me do this: I got to pick out all the flowers I wanted.
13. Always wear a helmet when you ride your bike or roller skate
14. Ask Mom and Dad what they were like when they were kids. I guarantee you'll get a few good laughs and learn something new each time.
15. Pizza is not a vegetable, and Starbursts are not fruit.
16. Sing. All the time. Even if the song makes no sense.
17. Dad will teach you all the words to Les Miserables.
There is no possible way to describe my love for you. You are our biggest blessing. We will help you thrive and learn and grow. We'll help you become a strong girl and a strong woman. We'll be there when you spill your Cheerios on the floor and when you're learning how to ride a bike. We'll be there when you star in the school play or want us to check under the bed for monsters. We'll be there for homecomings and proms, first dates and slumber parties.
For bath time and bedtime. For walks in the park, for camping under the stars. My little Adele: you are already a little lady, which is why everyone calls you Miss Adele. You have already shown your personality beautifully. You are happy and bubbly. You are determined (with your bottle and your hanging toys). You are a great speaker already, babbling away morning, noon and night.
I could probably type and type and type forever about you and how much I love you. But there will be more time for that. Mommy will have plenty of opportunities.
For now, though, just know: you brighten my heart, you open my world, you teach me every day. I am so excited to grow with you, learn with you, thrive with you. Just as I have so much to teach you, you have so much to teach me. You already have.
Mommy Marjie

Infosys, UK's Fabric win 'large' GSK order
BANGALORE (Reuters) - Infosys Ltd (INFY.NS), India's second-largest software services provider, and Britain's Fabric Worldwide Ltd, a provider of digital marketing technology, won a "large" order from GlaxoSmithKline PLC (GSK.L) to support the UK pharmaceutical company's global marketing campaigns, Infosys said.
It declined to give the specific size of the order.
"I can only say it is a large (order)", Infosys Senior Vice President and Global Head of Life Sciences Dheeshjith V. G. said by phone. "This is the first deal with them, actually, and it is a multi-year, multi-million-dollar deal."
Infosys and Fabric Worldwide will manage computer systems and software applications for GSK, helping it capture and analyse what people are saying about its products on its own website and on social media, helping GSK run more targeted marketing campaigns, another Infosys official said.

NCAA Tournament Cheat Sheet: Getting to know Pacific
Mar 17, 2013, 1:41 AM EDT
Read through the rest of the Cheat Sheets here.
Conference: Big West
Coach: Bob Thomason
Record: 22-12, 14-5
Rankings and Ratings:
- Kenpom: 124
– AP/USA Today: N/A
Seeding?: Our Dave Ommen had Pacific as a No. 15 seed in Saturday's bracket projection.
Names you need to know: Lorenzo McCloud (11.2 ppg, 4.1 apg), Travis Fulton (9.2 ppg, 3.8 rpg)
Stats you need to know: Pacific caught fire at the right time, winning their last four games in the regular season before running through the Big West tournament.
Tendencies: Pacific's defensive efficiency is nothing to get excited about, but they've ramped it up during league play. They were the best defensive team in the Big West, according to Kenpom.
Big wins, bad losses: The Tigers picked up a couple of big wins back in November, when they knocked off St. Mary's and Xavier in the Anaheim Classic.
How'd they get here?: Pacific knocked off UC-Irvine in the Big West title game to earn the league's automatic bid.
Outlook: The Tigers don't necessarily have the look of a team that can pull off an upset or two, but this isn't any regular team. Pacific is a team of destiny, if you will. This is Thomason's 25th season as the head coach of Pacific. It's also his last, as he's stepping down after the season. It's also the last season that Pacific will be a member of the Big West as they head to the WCC next year. Is that enough to be this year's Norfolk State or Lehigh?
How do I know you?: Pacific has been to the tournament four times in Thomason's tenure, even winning a game in 2004 and 2005.

Hall Research Introduces All-In-One UTP Console Extender
Hall Research Technologies releases the U97-ULTRA Series of All-in-One UTP Console Extenders which send dual video, audio, RS-232, and 2 direct USB extensions up to 400 feet over CATx.
Tustin, California â July 14, 2009
Hall Research Technologies announces today the release of the U97-ULTRA-2, an All-in-One UTP Console Extender, and the first member of the U97-ULTRA product series. This console extender is used to send dual-display PC video, stereo audio (amplified or line-level), RS-232, and up to two independent USB ports to a remote location up to 400 feet away over CATx cable.
The U97-ULTRA-2 combines the functions of the U97-H2, UU2X4, SKU-RGB, the DVC-3 Video Test Pattern Generator, and several others from Hall Researchâs catalog of products. âThe U97-ULTRA Series brings together several of our products into one powerful, rack-mountable deviceâ? said Ali Haghjoo, Chief Executive Officer. âIt was designed with built-in features like skew correction and EDID, which our customers will find valuable,â? continued Mr. Haghjoo. The built-in video skew correction on both video channels was included to correct the lack of RGB convergence when long Cat6 cables are used. Its built-in EDID (Extended Display ID) allows PCs to detect LCDs even if none are connected at the sender or receiver.
The U97-ULTRA-2 includes a rack-mountable sender unit plus a wall-mountable receiver (and I/O hood cover) packaged together. In addition, the sender and receiver units are available to be sold separately. The U97-ULTRA-2 has a retail price of $2,985.00 and is available to purchase immediately through Hall Researchâs Sales Department by calling (800) 959-6439.

Set against the backdrop of snow-capped Wasatch and Oquirrh mountains looming high above Utah's most populated metropolis on 40 well-kept acres, majestically lies the State Capitol building — a symbol of American democracy and pride for a state with rocky beginnings.
With the state legislature now in its 45-day, 59th session to debate immigration, healthcare and gun control, photo historian Ron Fox has dug through the Deseret News archives to provide a look back at the history of the edifice that now houses the state's large-scale decision making.
Under the leadership of Brigham Young — roughly from 1858 to 1896 — there was a struggle between Mormons and non-Mormons regarding Utah gaining statehood. Finally after achieving such a status in 1896, the people lacked a capitol.
In an article written for the Deseret Evening News on Jan. 10, 1907, John C. Cutler, Utah's second governor, expressed his desire for a state capitol to commemorate and elevate Utah's public achievements.
"With material wealth the envy of all neighbors; with schools the admiration of the world; with churches innumerable pointing their spires heavenward; with farms and factories and flocks and herds, and mines and mills pouring forth their wealth, the future glory of Utah is assured," Cutler said. "Now let that glory be crowned by the erection of a beautiful, stately, commodious capitol on the splendid site so wisely chosen for it. It will be both a fitting outgrowth of the splendid past and a potent element in the glorious future of our own dear Utah."
Perhaps surprising to some, Utah's current capitol isn't its first. The original building designated as such was the Territorial Statehouse, built in 1855 in Fillmore with the design of Truman O. Angell — head designer of the Salt Lake City Temple — under the direction of Brigham Young. However, only one wing of the statehouse — and one full session of the Legislature — was completed before relocating to Salt Lake City.
After the unsuccessful attempt to construct a thriving meetingplace in Fillmore, thought to be a potentially booming city, the newly-formed state sought funding for a permanent capitol building.
In a stroke of good fortune, money came in 1911 when the state collected $798,546 in inheritance tax from wealthy Union Pacific Railroad president E.H. Harriman, allowing Utah to secure a one million dollar bond and construction of the capitol to begin.
Known to some as the "Dean of Utah Architecture," Richard Kletting was tapped in a statewide competition to be the impending state capitol's designer. After breaking ground back in 1909, construction was finally underway three years later on December 12, 1912 with its first use unfinished in 1915 and completion in 1916.
In the "Utah History Encyclopedia," historian Geraldine H. Clayton described some elements of Kletting's structure.
"The exterior of Kletting's capitol design is similar to the U.S. Capitol in Washington, D.C.," Clayton said. "The Utah building perhaps achieves some of its grandeur from the condensation of the same elements — the porticos, pediments, and monumental columns-onto the simple, but carefully proportioned, rectangle."
The 404-foot long and 240-foot wide statehouse is steeped in pride, rife with the Utah's industrious beehive symbol as well as two monuments — to the West and East respectively — commemorating the 388 Utah natives who died in the Vietnam War and 500 Mormons who marched in the Mormon Battalion.
The Capitol's interior is centered on a 165-foot tall rotunda watched over by the statued likenesses of some notable including Brigham Young and TV inventor Philo T. Farnsworth. The building is flanked by the Supreme Court to the East and the House of Representatives on the West.
In "Temples of Democracy," a 1976 book critiquing American state capitols, Henry Russell Hitchcock and William Seale praised Kletting's work.
"His plan was the simplest and most dramatic," they wrote. "Wide but not deep, its dome and its continuous range of colossal Corinthian columns echoed the national capitol. There was so little incidental decoration that the general effect was more strictly Classical than Renaissance ... Surveying the Great Salt Lake and ranges of mountains that fade to pink and violet in the setting sun, the Utah Capitol combines ... simplicity with ... [a] taste for the spectacular."
In 2008 — after nearly 92 years since its first dedication — the Capitol building concluded restorations and seismic upgrades and celebrated with a program mirroring that of the original ceremony, now almost a century ago, with a speech by Gov. Jon Huntsman, dedicatory prayer by Gordon B. Hinckley and music by the Mormon Tabernacle choir among others.
"It is important that we always remember this is more than a building," said David Hart, chief architect over the reconstruction. "It is a special place. It is — "the people's house. It is a temple to democracy. It is the physical manifestation of our constitution and our rights."

I Fully Submerge My Hand in Liquid Nitrogen!
2010 09 21
By Theodore Gray |
Protected By Science My hand is like a red-hot poker to the liquid nitrogen, but an insulating layer of nitrogen gas forms- a phenomenon known as the Leiden-frost effect- keeping my hand safe and warm for a fraction of a second.
Mike Walker
When I first saw this photograph of a mans hand submerged in liquid nitrogen at somewhere below -320° F, my immediate thought was, That guy must be crazy! One second in that stuff, and youre shopping for new skin! My shock was tempered only slightly by the fact that it was my hand, and wed taken the picture just a minute earlier.
I hadnt realized that my hand was quite so deep into the liquid. Amazingly, I barely felt the cold at all. My skin didnt get hurt for the same reason that water droplets dance on a hot skillet. An insulating layer of steam forms almost instantly between the water and the metal, keeping the droplets relatively cool as they float for several seconds without actually touching the hot surface. To liquid nitrogen, flesh is like that skilleta surface hundreds of degrees above its boiling point. So the moment my hand touched the liquid, it created a protective layer of evaporated nitrogen gas, just as the skillet created a layer of steam. That gave me just enough time to put my hand in and pull it out again. Any longer than that, and frostbite would have set in.
Hot Water: Droplets on a very hot skillet take longer to evaporate than they would on a less-hot surface where no insulating gas layer forms.
Mike Walker
The phenomenon is called the
Leidenfrost effect (after Johann Gottlob Leidenfrost, the doctor who first studied it in 1756)
. Id known about it for years, but when it came time to test it in real life, I have to admit that I used my left hand, the one Id miss less.
I drew the line at another classic example of the effect. According to the books, its possible to stick a damp finger directly into molten lead without getting burned, if you do it fast enough. After some consideration, and remembering the times Ive been burned by molten lead, I decided that it probably wouldnt make a very good picture anyway.
Do not try this. If liquid nitrogen soaks into your clothes, you will not be protected by the Leidenfrost effect, and you can get frostbite very quickly.

Study shows men also suffer from PMS
Related Articles
Published: 10 September 2004
But these are symptoms reported by men, not women. New research suggests men suffer from pre-menstrual-style symptoms, in some cases as badly as women.
The news is bound to be greeted with snorts of cynicism by most females.
But the study published today shows that the majority of men claim to suffer from a range of symptoms most usually associated with pre-menstrual syndrome (PMS).
Dr Aimee Aubeeluck of the University of Derby, who carried out the study, said: "We asked 50 men and 50 women lots of questions about symptoms normally associated with PMS and we found men actually scored higher than women in everything apart from water retention."
The men admitted to feeling antisocial and suffering poor concentration; depression; lack of arousal; hot flushes and pain - including stomach cramps, back pain and headaches. The team believes that the reason that men complained more than women may be because of their alleged lack of forbearance when it comes to illness.
Dr Aubeeluck, who is presenting her findings to the British Psychological Society conference today, said: "There is some evidence to suggest that pain thresholds differ between men and women so it could just be perception of pain.
"It could be women experience more pain but don't give it as much attention.
"When you are asking people to rate their experiences it is a little bit subjective." What causes the men's symptoms is, at present, a mystery. They may be triggered by stress but Dr Aubeeluck said the findings were significant enough to warrant further research.
She and colleague Joanne Worsey will now study couples over several months to discover if symptoms are cyclical for both men and women.
She said: "If men are experiencing big changes in mood, surely that should be addressed.
"While some may be coping, others may be wondering why they feel so down.
"It's really important for men that if they are suffering they feel they can talk about it and seek treatment."
The suggestion that men suffer from a form of PMS is bound to divide opinion - as has the theory of the male menopause.
Many doctors, including some British specialists, believe middle-aged men experience a sudden fall in testosterone - a hormone responsible for sex drive, sperm production and muscle tone.
However, a American study said that those who complain of hot flushes, excessive sweating, depression and a lack of sex drive are probably suffering the side effects of being overweight, lazy, smoking and drinking too much.
More than 50 per cent of men in their fifties are thought to suffer lethargy, lack of interest in sex, mood swings and even hot flushes, all of which could be caused by a lack of testosterone.
Yet in the study, of 1,700 men from Massachusetts, testosterone was found to decline very gradually with age, at about one per cent a year. The team concluded it was their unhealthy lifestyle that caused the unpleasant symptoms.

WASHINGTON – While US President Barack Obama made final edits to his fifth State of the Union address on Tuesday, senior Senate aides relayed conflicting messages on the future of a key bill introduced last month threatening Iran with new sanctions should negotiations fail to dismantle its nuclear program.Jockeying on the Hill reflected tense politics surrounding the future of the bill, which the president firmly opposes, warning that its passage through the Senate would derail talks between Iran and world powers.A bloc of 19 Democratic senators is protesting the bill, as are foreign allied dignitaries in London and Paris. However, 59 senators from both parties openly support the legislation, which gives the president up to a year to negotiate a comprehensive solution to the nuclear impasse before triggering new sanctions on Iran's oil sector, upon presidential approval.Proponents of the bill, written by Senate Foreign Relations Committee chairman Robert Menendez (D-NJ), seek an "insurance policy" on Iran during the negotiations process, afraid that an interim deal that only temporarily halts Iran's nuclear program might become a new status quo in the longstanding crisis.A recent meeting of Senate Democrats, including Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid (D-NV), reportedly resulted in a decision not to proceed with the legislation, Reuters claimed on Tuesday.Senators first returned to Washington yesterday after a ten-day recess, raising questions as to when the meeting would have taken place.Senate aides from both parties familiar with the bill said they were unaware of such a meeting, or of whether a decision had been made on how to proceed, one way or another."The truth is that Republicans have been holding back to try to maintain the bipartisan support that we know this issue engenders across the nation," one senior Republican Senate aide told The Jerusalem Post. "But if Leader Reid wishes to defy the will of the majority of the Senate and the majority of the American people, Republicans will be forced to take partisan steps to try to force a vote."For the most part, the politics of Iran are typically placid and bipartisan in Washington, with a steady 80 percent of Americans distrustful of the Islamic Republic and, in general, supportive of more sanctions than less.But fewer than one in ten Americans considers foreign policy a priority. That will be reflected in the president's speech Tuesday night, as he is unlikely to spend much time discussing the Middle East.The White House hopes the issue can remain bipartisan, and insists Obama will support swift action on sanctions should talks fail in six months' time.The president has threatened to veto the bill should it pass through the Senate and reach his desk.
