The primary colors of my living room are orange, red, and yellow. The overall theme is coffee, and I love to accent with items from all over the world (as an Army wife, I've done a great deal of traveling). I had recently purchased some coffee accented hooks to add to the decor, but I had nothing interesting to hang from them. When I discovered these Indian ornaments from Worldstock (which I love to support), they were perfect on every level. They were exotic, unique, the right colors, and supported artisans from India. I absolutely love them. My only complaint: NOW I WANT MORE!!!
i ordered these as a gift and loved them so much that i decided to keep them for myself! they are so beautiful and ornately made. I can't imagine finding anything like these in a store. the pictures just don't do them justice!

Engineered around the "less-is-more" design principle, the Nike Zoom HyperRev combines lightweight mesh and the brand's dynamic Flywire system. While developing the shoe, Nike designer Leo Chang had his mind set on creating a lightweight, breathable and flexible shoe that delivered a custom fit with "proprioceptive" feel. The foam comfort of the collar and heel area provide the desired feel combined with the required stability and support. The Nike Zoom HyperRev launches globally at Nike and select retail locations beginning January 1, 2014.

I started putting some thought in to how I would feel once the lockout ended when things started sounding optimistic and there is one song in particular that came to mind. I am not quite sure why but it seems to fit the occasion:
The news of the day is that the owners and players reportedly agree on all issues and that the process from here is simply a formality. Indeed, the witch appears to be dead.

SATURDAY, Oct. 22 (HealthDay News) -- Marathons place heavy
demands on the body and runners need to take certain measures to
ensure they stay healthy and are able to cross the finish line,
according to a nutrition expert.
Runners need enough energy to perform at their best and to
prevent injuries, advised registered dietitian Brooke Schantz, of
the Loyola University Health System. She offered a simple guideline
for calorie intake:
Runners should consume 30 to 60 grams of carbohydrates per hour
when running for more than one hour. Marathon-friendly carbs
include gels, jelly beans, sports drinks, sports bars or a
combination of these products.
Protein is another essential part of a runner's diet because it
increases lean muscle mass and helps in muscle repair. Endurance
athletes should consume between 1.2 to 1.4 grams of protein per
kilogram of body weight per day. But don't exceed more than 1 gram
of protein per pound of body weight per day, Schantz said in a
university news release.
And, she added, runners should avoid high-fiber foods the night
before and the morning of a race because they could cause
intestinal distress and cramping during the race.
It's crucial to drink enough water to stay properly hydrated.
Schantz offered the following fluid-replacement guidelines:
Monitoring the color of your urine is a good way to assess your
hydration status. The clearer your urine, the more hydrated you
are, Schantz said.

When President Obama commented that the Republicans were standing around drinking Slurpees while the Democrats were busy creating real change in Washington, it caused quite a storm. Now that he's sitting down with the new Republican leadership this week, the so-called "Slurpee Summit" is the talk of the nation.
While most of us have had one of 7-Eleven's frozen concoctions, there's plenty more you probably don't know about this too cool drink.
Read the entire COOL HISTORY OF THE SLURPEE from Mental Floss.

Can high school coaches choose the method that determines which players will make their team? Apparently, not in the Scottsdale Unified School District.
Just ask Gene Denning, Arcadia's basketball coach.
Denning briefly resigned last Thursday in protest over that very issue. While he ended his five-day hiatus Tuesday, a bad precedent was set by Roosevelt Lofton, the district's athletic director, who has been on the job for just eight weeks.
Here is what Denning said happened. A junior tried out for the varsity basketball team. Denning and his staff determined the player wasn't varsity material. What happened next is where the controversy arose.
When a junior doesn't make the varsity, the player is either assigned to the junior varsity squad or cut from the program. The latter normally occurs if it is determined the player wouldn't be good enough next year to make the varsity team.
Upset over the player's release, the junior's parents complained to the district. That is how Lofton entered the picture. Lofton ruled it wasn't fair the player wasn't given an opportunity to try out for the junior varsity team and ordered Denning to put him on the JV team.
Denning stands by the decision he made to cut the player.
"There is a whole team criteria that they have to meet and he didn't," Denning said. "The district said tryouts are over; he's on the team."
To protest that ruling, Denning resigned.
"I think the people that this decision affects know about it now, and that was the whole point of me resigning," Denning said. "I never wanted to resign but the kids needed to know why I resigned and the parents needed to know why I resigned.
"It gave me a chance to figure out why I really am a coach. I wanted to come back and coach for the kids."
Spurring Denning's decision to return was a home visit Monday night by some of his players asking him to return.
When contacted Wednesday, Lofton defended his ruling.
"He did not have an opportunity to try out for the junior varsity," said Lofton, a former college coach. "He should have been given a tryout."
The fact is the player was given a tryout. In a brief sampling of several area high school basketball coaches, they all said they run their programs the same way as Denning. They hold a varsity tryout. After the tryout, players who are juniors are either assigned to the varsity or the junior varsity or they are cut. A sophomore stands a better chance of not being cut and assigned to the junior varsity because he has two years to try to improve to make the varsity. Freshmen normally play on the freshmen team.
Sure, Arcadia could have wasted everyone's time and had a second tryout to determine the JV team. Then the player in question could have suffered the humiliation of being cut twice.
Besides, aren't schools supposed to be readying students for real life, which involves winning and losing every day? What kind of message is being sent when all that is needed for a student to win is to have his parents complain?
Lofton insisted this case does not necessarily set a precedent for the district. Right. What happens this spring when a district baseball coach cuts a junior and his parents complain?
"It's a decision that I hope doesn't hurt sports in Scottsdale," Denning said.

This comes courtesy of our Matt McDonough who was there for Husky Day at the Capitol
Thanks Matt….
"At the end of the day, you start to research, I was sandwiched between the speakers, you have these representatives working on jobs for combat veterans, $247 million tax cut initiative, cutting gas fuel costs, cooperative city to city to reduce housing. [Assistant deputy speaker] Ms. [Mary] Fritz has been an elected official for 32 years. So then I go up and I'm standing between three national champions. So there's excellence abound. Everywhere you turn. There's excellence out in front, there's excellence behind. So there's this spectacular government and state piece that's doing awesome work and there's this great university that's doing awesome work. Like I said, the bar has been set. The bar's been set by this great place and this university and we've got to get the football team up to that level. We've got to get to that level and exceed expectations. And you don't need to look far to see the excellence."
Diaco on state spirit: "The people of the state are rabid fans of the university. There's great support. They continue to come. They're buying season tickets. Like we said, it's going to be a hard ticket to get, so come on out, get your tickets, it's going to be a great show. We're going to give you stuff to cheer about. The team's going to play hard. There's going to be great excitement, and everywhere I go, there's been great spirit with the people of this state."

My mom has breast cancer. It's the best kind of breast cancer to have (so… yay?), but the poor woman. Psoriasis, skin cancer, near-fatal car accident, diabetes, and now breast cancer. And I cried when she told me, but mostly because I was hurt that my parents had waited a week to do so. I didn't really stop to consider all the things I've kept from them for far longer.
But we spent a very nice weekend together otherwise; had some good chinese food; took the dog to the dog park. My parents! They're a bit nutso in their own way, but I do love them. I just wish it weren't so difficult for them to be well for just one six-month stretch.
So I'm feeling a bit dejected at the moment. It's during these kinds of situations that I wish I had a sibling for reasons I'm not sure I can quite explain.
Ah well. There isn't much that can be done about that at this point.

If you subscribe to one literary magazine (and you should really subscribe to more than one!), The Lifted Brow is an extraordinary choice. Beautiful art, wonderful poetry and prose — and it comes from Australia!
Last year it introduced me to the work of the marvelous Rob Shearman (from whom I've shamelessly stolen the title of my blog). I'm pleased to see that he's in this year's summer issue again, and that you're able to read his short story, "Cold Snap," in full online for a limited time at The Lifted Brow's website. He can be excruciatingly British — and I mean that in a complimentary way — and strangely twisted, but I'm always charmed and intrigued by his stories.
Here's an excerpt from "Cold Snap":
And sure enough, the feet were already hooves, better protection against the cold, and Ben could see Daddy sigh gratefully for that. The hide stole over his body, thick and strong, not strong enough, maybe, not in this weather, it could freeze your blood—but warmer than his man skin, that was a comfort at any rate. He pitched forwards when his hands became hooves as well; his head bowed down beneath antler weight.
"That's it," said Santa. "There you are. You're beautiful. You're beautiful." He smiled at Ben. "Isn't he beautiful?" And Ben couldn't deny it.
Santa turned to the other reindeer. "This is your new brother!" he said. They were too weary to do much more than shrug their heads, non-committal. "You all try so hard for me," he said. "For me, you fly the skies. You're the best." He stroked their heads, one by one. He reached one near the back. "And you, you're so very tired, aren't you? Such a long journey. So many long journeys. But you've always tried so hard." The reindeer turned its human eyes to Santa, and nuzzled his hand. Santa laughed. "Thank you. Thank you. I love you." And so tenderly, he caressed its head. And broke its neck.
In that silence the snap of bone sounded louder than it probably was. It had been such a gentle twist, really, and so quick, the reindeer wouldn't have felt a thing. But it couldn't have been that gentle—one of the bones had ripped through the skin ("rip it open, rip it apart!"), Ben could see it jutting out, sharp and white. The harness kept the reindeer in place, slumped in death as it was; when Santa released it, the body fell to the ground. The snow that caught it was so soft.

My aunt is concerned that the dog will get confused, but I'm the one who can't figure out what's going on.
RER - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
I'll never forget the time when I had the flu and was headed out to Nanterre on the RER A at rush hour. They had those people to help close the doors à la India! Someone squeezed my ass and then I realized I was nauseous (related to having a fever — not to the groping) and I started to dry heave. The poor French women in front of me turned around and looked mighty worried for a good 20 seconds until I darted off the train at La Défense in order to vomit into a trash can.
It will always be my shining moment.
I've read two disparaging comments toward EPCOT Center today, which saddens me because I actually love EPCOT. Yes, it's cheesy, yes, it seems like the leftovers of 6 other parks thrown together, but what can I say, I have a thing for hard luck cases.
But later that night when she went to bed and I followed her to her door she stopped me.
"No, Charles, not yet. Perhaps never. I don't know. I don't know if I want love."
Then something, some surviving ghost from those dead ten years — for one cannot die, even for a little, without some loss — made me say, "Love? I'm not asking for love."
"Oh yes, Charles, you are," she said, and putting up her hand gently stroked my cheek; then shut the door.""—Brideshead Revisited

She came from Greece, she had a thirst for knowledge
She studied sculpture at Saint Martin's College
That's where I caught her eye
She told me that her dad was loaded
I said, "In that case I'll have a rum and Coca-Cola"
She said fine, and in 30 seconds' time she said
I want to live like common people
I want to do whatever common people do
I want to sleep with common people
I want to sleep with common people like you
Well, what else could I do?
I said, "I'll see what I can do"
I took her to a supermarket
I don't know why but I had to start it somewhere
So it started there
I said, "Pretend you've got no money"
She just laughed and said, "Oh, you're so funny"
I said, "Yeah? Well I can't see anyone else smiling in here
Are you sure you want to live like common people?
You want to see whatever common people see
You want to sleep with common people
You want to sleep with common people like me?"
But she didn't understand
She just smiled and held my hand
Rent a flat above a shop
Cut your hair and get a job
Smoke some fags and play some pool
Pretend you never went to school
But still you'll never get it right
Cause when you're laid in bed at night
Watching roaches climb the wall
If you call your dad he could stop it all
You'll never live like common people
You'll never do what common people do
You'll never fail like common people
You'll never watch your life slide out of view
And dance and drink and screw
Because there's nothing else to do
Sing along with the common people
Sing along and it might just get you through
Laugh along with the common people
Laugh along even though they're laughing at you
And the stupid things that you do
Because you think that poor is cool
I want to live with common people
I want to live with common people like you

My dad sent this to me with the following comment: "Tough, sober Financial Times piece. Not much more to say."
Who needs a drink?
The Worst Summer Ever? - The Awl
Balk is wise.
So I saw the dentist today because I had this stuff on my tongue and my cheeks and I was convinced I oral cancer or something. The good news is that it's just scar tissue! The bad news is that it's because I'm clenching my jaw and grinding my teeth (and cheeks and tongue, apparently) into mush.
I'm thinking of getting a night guard at her suggestion. I had one years ago, though, and I couldn't sleep with it in so I ended up never using it and then throwing it out. If I get one now, it's $400, apparently. I don't want to shell out $400 and then not actually be able to use the thing (and knowing me, even if it's for my own good, if it's removable, I won't use it).
In any case, before I add to my ever-increasing debt cavern, does anyone have any alternative ideas to cut down on tooth abuse?
On the upside, I have excellent bone density in my head.
I mean HOLY MOLY, you guys. It is like a million humidities* outside. I think we live in The New Rainforest now?
I mean just oh my good god.
*I'm inventing this as a measure of water vapor.
My social life is basically hermetically sealed. It's like I live in one of those domed cities in Logan's Run and that any attempt to find survivors outside will be thwarted by guys in black coming after me with laser guns (and then, if I manage to get past them, there's still the psycho robot who'll freeze me for later consumption because there's no more seafood coming his way). Seriously, who doesn't like a good Logan's Run metaphor? Always apt are you, Logan's Run! Also, you see boobs in that movie, that's always fun even if you're a straight girl because your own become fairly uninteresting after a while.
Philadelphia is a real townie-town. People generally don't have this idea of, "I don't care if I have to work retail, but I want to move to Philadelphia and spend my 20's there!" So there are tradeoffs. Affordable rent and booze and baseball games vs. a constant stream of new people and places in which to meet them.
What I'm saying is that I've lived here four years and all of my friends live in the suburbs and/or are practically (or actually are) married and I live in Center City and am single and I am often lonely and/or bored and/or feeling sorry for myself because the people I wouldn't mind calling up on a random Tuesday night at 8 to meet up for drinks might as well live in Namibia. Everything has to be planned because train schedules have to be looked up or parking costs have to be justified and then we're all seriously ADULTS and should probably be talking about urban planning and capital gains taxes.
Long story short: Go watch Logan's Run because boobs.

Niles was founded in 1806 by James Heaton, who owned one of the first iron-ore processing plants in the state. The town originally went by the name 'Heaton's Furnace', but was rather quickly renamed Nilestown, after Hezekiah Niles (editor of the Niles Register, a Baltimore newspaper.) In 1843, the name was shortened to simply 'Niles'. William McKinley, the 25th President of the United States, was born in Niles on January 29, 1843. The McKinley Memorial was built in downtown Niles to remember William McKinley in 1915, and houses the town's library as well as a small museum. Kenneth Patchen, the poet, was born in Niles on December 13, 1911. Anti-Klan Riot of 1924 - The Ku Klux Klan was focused on Niles because of the Catholic population in the area. They had one march through town in May 1924, and then attempted another June 21of that same year. This march was met with great resistance, and had to be canceled due to violence. -- Source: Wikipedia.com

Guys, I am so sorry that I have not been more active here. I'm still battling some debilitating health issues and while I was able to get up and spend some time with my family yesterday, I'm by no means better yet. Thank you for your patience

Are you watching "Selfie"?
From the vastness of time and space, Karen Gillian (Doctor Who, Guardians of the Galaxy) and John Cho (Star Trek) come down to modern day Los Angeles for this updated take on "My Fair Lady." Gillian plays Eliza Dooley, a social media obsessed sales rep for a children's pharmaceutical company, while Cho plays Henry, a young but old-fashioned-at-heart marketing guru at the same company. When Eliza realizes that, despite her social media popularity, she doesn't have any real friends, she turns to Henry for help in "rebranding" herself.
Hijinks ensue, of course, as Eliza struggles to follow Henry's instructions in befriending coworkers and forcing her paramour to value her as more than a casual hook-up. On the other hand, Henry realizes that although he might understand the rules of interaction better, he doesn't really have friends himself. It's clear to see that together they are going to balance each other out, and it'll be a fun ride to get there.
So what emerges is a fun and surprisingly deep sit-com. Gillian and Cho are perfectly cast and the first three episodes have been well written and directed. It's not really any cleaner than any sit-com these days, but it's about self-worth and valuing yourself and others beyond what the 'ratings' tell you to do.
Are you watching "Selfie"? If not, I think you should give it a try.

OUAT has more treasures than they know what to do with.
Hypable has a pretty good article up today about which minor characters in OUAT need more episodes. It is simply mind-boggling that OUAT has dropped the ball on Mulan - and while I hadn't been interested in seeing more of Granny previously, I certainly am after reading this article!
But the characters I really want more of are Ruby and Aurora. They weren't much more than set dressing last season, but there is so much more that could be done with their characters. Ruby, especially, is a fan favorite, if the number of requests for her cloak in my costume inbox is any indication! Now that Meghan Ory's slate is reasonably clear again, the showrunners really should snatch her up with a nice contract and give her some juicy bits in part 2 of season 4. I would especially love to see her friendship with Dr. Whale expanded upon.
As for Aurora - last we saw of her she was still pregnant in a gestation that seems to exceed human capabilities (Snow got pregnant after her, and when Snow gave birth at full term, Aurora was still pregnant). We really need to see her baby and learn how Phillip got rescued!
I know fans are cooing over the Hook and Emma sweet moments, but personally I'd like a little less of that mush and a little more fleshing out of some of these other, excellent, characters.

IEW says "Write With Pens!"
the benefit of pens vs. pencils (especially for young writers) is spot on. I've always preferred writing with pens to pencils, but never stopped to analyse why. Which is a bit crazy because the contrast and consistency comparisons are hardly rocket science, they're just so 'normal' to us that we don't bother to think through why we prefer one over the other.
For 90% of what I do, I prefer writing on the computer. However, when it comes to doing flash writing assignments for writer's group, I'll chose a pen over a pencil any day. Write, baby, write, and go back and edit later!

"Parenthood" grows up even while it remains Forever Young
May God bless and keep you always
and may your wishes all come true
may you always do for others
and let others do for you.
May you build a ladder to the stars
and climb on every rung
and may you stay-
Forever Young.
~Bob Dylan
In one of the most emotionally moving title sequences since Joss Whedon's "Firefly", each episode of NBC's "Parenthood" kicks off with a rousing chorus of family and life that just keeps going.
Now in its sixth (and final) season, I first discovered this show shortly after season two began airing. I'd been browsing through Hulu, saw it starred Lauren Graham (Gilmore Girls) and had to give it a try. Quite surprisingly, Lauren's character was not the draw of the show for me. Instead I was trapped by the refreshingly honest, supportive, beautiful but so-not-perfect Braverman Family.
Led by parents/grandparents Zeek and Camille Braverman, their four adult children (Adam, Sarah, Crosby and Julia) plus spouses and children, navigate the maze of life - specifically in the realm of parenthood and family. While they bicker like any sibling groups, in the end they always come together. They may not agree, but they'll be there for each other, come what may.
In a TV landscape where shows about families are mostly regulated to sitcoms, "Parenthood" stands out as a stellar drama with storylines that ring true, writing that is real and raw, and acting that is so believable, you forget that they're actors and not an actual family. From Autism, Adoption and Abortion, to Infidelity, PTSD and a Political Campaign, "Parenthood" covers a myriad of situations relevant to American Family Life without ever becoming a soap opera. Controversial? Maybe. But never without sympathy and insight. While some work better than others, each story is nonetheless told with compassion, not a heavy hammer. Like wine, the show grows better with age, with each episode more and more consistently leaving the viewer with misty eyes.
My family has been especially touched by the show's portrayal of child/pre-teen Max Braverman as an Aspie. My own Aspergers remained undiagnosed until I was 19, and both me and my parents can relate to many of the issues Max and his parents face. Even though Max's case is extreme, it is nonetheless pretty accurate to what we'd consider a textbook case of Aspergers (I'm far from textbook, which is why most people rarely can't believe I have it). The show further branched out by it's introduction of adult character Hank portrayed by Ray Romano (Everyone Loves Raymond) who also seems to fall on the Autism spectrum. I won't say more, because I really recommend watching the show and seeing it all play out for yourself. And then I recommend researching Aspergers and learning about how it differs from person to person and between the genders, because it is such a complicated syndrome that it cannot possibly be fully portrayed even among two characters.
Other storylines that have been especially heartwrenching for me deal with (I'll stay vague, but this could be considered spoiler-ish) ---
--- cancer, a broken marriage, and two out-of-wedlock pregnancies dealt with from both sides of the equation.
(end Spoilerish Stuff)
I fell in love with this show and got my sister and my parents into it, who - in turn - got my grandparents into it. Now I hear that my aunt and uncle have also gotten on the bandwagon. Its the only show besides "Downton Abbey" that has been enjoyed by so many of my family members, and I think that in and of itself says something pretty significant about the show. It's certainly meant that we always have something to talk about, as we discuss the decisions and choices of the characters on the show, in particular the different parenting choices they each make.
Every season is on Netflix, which makes this the perfect binge-watching show. You can even catch up in time to watch the final season as it airs - which is so far turning out to be possibly the best season yet.
And then you can find me on Facebook or Tumblr raving excitedly about it every Friday morning.
(While about family, there are enough adult topics that I would recommend the implementation of parental discretion for viewers under 16. It's a really good way to talk about these issues, though.)

A Look Back at L'Engle
The very first time I read "A Wrinkle in Time" my Dad listened to it on tape at the same time. He told me "I think you're a lot like Meg Murray." I didn't really get it because that was never my favorite L'Engle book - just very weird to me, but I liked that my dad saw me as a heroine.
A few years later I got to "A Swiftly Tilting Planet" and that was probably the first true science fiction book I really read. It was weird but it was time travel and had all these interesting links between Wales and Native Americans and the most awesome rune ever. My kind of weird, I guess.
I grew into "An Acceptable Time." I need to give "A House like a Lotus" another try. I picked it up in college and the sex stuff was too much for me (I was a young freshman). After that I was more wary of L'Engle, but not so much that her death didn't hit me pretty hard. It was the first time an author I read had died. Authors were either alive or dead - they didn't live and suddenly die on you. Not until then. Then a legend passed, and I froze in front of the sign in the English department and tried to wrap my head around it.
A family friend of ours had gone to L'Engle's church in New York and had known her. So I think that added to the sense of connection. I didn't know her, but someone I knew did. She was a real person, you know?
It's fascinating to read her books because they're all set, roughly, within the same universe. Characters cross over and around. Meg Murray and Vicki Austen never meet, but Meg's daughter and Vicki date the same boy. Characters are young in YA novels, then come back as 50 years older in adult works.
I hope, someday, to give my children a new "Austen Family" novel each year between the ages of 12 and 16. L'Engle captures so well the tumultuous inner life of the creative adolescent. She doesn't shy away from the hard stuff, and her theology can instigate some deep discussions, so pacing them out appropriately is the game plan.
It was hard for me to accept, as a pre-teen who saw things very black and white, that L'Engle was Christian. Back then I couldn't wrap my mind around a Christian who believed in evolution! As an adult, I see great courage and honesty in her ability to write about belief in mainstream books. She didn't write "Christian" books, but most of her protagonists wrestled with God and Christ and Faith in some way, a way that was always honest and raw and real.
I also have a lot of respect for her pioneering work in both YA fiction, and YA Science Fiction. For a writer who matured in a pre-internet world, she wrote on a vast canvas, drawing from her own personal life which included international living and even a trip to Antarctica. She wrote what she knew, and she knew a lot! (No, I'm not saying she knew how to tesseract. I'm just saying she clearly loved science too.)
As I read her books (again or for the first time) this autumn, I realized how much her writing has impacted me. I am not entirely sure how this happened. Did it rub off on me, or do I like it because it is so similar to how I write? I suspect a mixture of both. Regina Doman writes in a similar way, and she's one of my favorite authors who is now my own publisher.
I'm not always comfortable with everything L'Engle writes, but I think it is a good kind of uncomfortable-ness. I may not love every one of her books, but the ones I do love, I love very much, and the ones I don't love, I usually at least enjoy and respect.
(A comment made me realize that I didn't explicitly say in here that her adult books do feature definite adult content, so stick to the YA books if you're concerned about that.)

Sheep and Ice - OUAT picks up steam in 4.2
Last week I had more to say about the costumes than the episode. This week it is the other way around (sadly for fashion, but happily for good drama).
Anna goes to the Enchanted Forest, meets David, and runs into... evil Bo Peep? (More on her costume here.) Seriously, the whole "Bo Peep is an evil slave mistress/warlord" thing was kind of trippy, but it did make a good set-up for finding Anna back in Storybrooke. And it was kind of hilarious to see Peep as a grumpy butcher in the modern day.
Sure, it's a little bit of a stretch to accept Anna teaching David to swordfight in 24 hours, but they lampshade it with Anna herself saying "I wasn't sure we'd have enough time." I guess David was destined to be a heroic prince. At first I also had trouble with Anna knowing how to fight so well, but then I thought "spunky Anna locked up in the castle for so many years had to do something besides ask Elsa to build a snowman. Of COURSE she made the guards teach her how to fight!)
Back in Storybrooke we get some nice Elsa/Emma and Hook/David moments. Snow's storyline is more unbelievable because where the heck are all the guys who normally run the power plant? But eh, baby high five was pretty cute. Sad lack of Regina and the Golds in this episode, although with such a large cast not everyone can get equal time in every episode.
But hands down, my favorite scene was the reveal of Elizabeth Mitchell's character. It was an excellent intro, logical and visually perfect. Plus, JULIET IS BAAAAACK.
Ahem. Yes, I know, it's not actually Juliet Burke and she's going to be evil and everything but seriously I adore Elizabeth Mitchell and she was so perfect in this scene, I can't wait to see what else they have in store for her!!!

Your own 30-minute meals?
What do you make quickly that doesn't require an armful of ingredients?
Tonight I made broccoli pasta - blanch broccoli, cook in garlic, olive oil, a little bouillon or broth if necessary and lots of real parmesan cheese. s&p of course.
I too find that pasta dishes are the best for when the fridge is bare. Canned clams, tuna & macaroni cheese casserole, frozen raw shrimp from the freezer makes a pretty good scampi.
Here is the Clam Sauce
2 Cans whole baby clams ( 10 oz each )
3 Cans chopped clams ( 6 oz each )
1/4 Cup olive oil
1 tsp of chopped garlic ( about 1 clove )
1 tsp thyme leaves, dried
1 tbsp parsley, dried
2 Cups clam juice ( from canned clams )
1/2 Cup white wine
1 Tbsp Flour ( optional )
Heat olive oil and add garlic.
Simmer for 1-5 minutes
Whisk in flour to thicken ( if using)
Add clam juice, wine, thyme, parsley, salt and pepper. ( careful with salt..depends on how salty clams are )
Simmer 10 minutes
Add clams and simmer for 5 minutes or until heated. ( Don't overcook or they will be tough )
Toss with cooked pasta.
Chicken breasts pounded flat, breaded and pan fried--then whatever I have available: marsala and mushrooms; lemon, capers and butter; butter and thyme; tomatoes, olives and feta... Roasted vegetables in the winter, salad in the summer.
I made a soup tonight with some ground turkey and vegetables from the fridge. I sauteed onion, celery, carrots, parsnips, and the ground turkey in a dutch oven in some olive oil with some crushed red pepper flakes thrown in. After the meat was browned and the veggies softened I added some beef broth, a can of diced tomatoes, and S&P to taste. Simmered it about 20 min then added some thin noodles and cooked another 5 min or so.
It was delicious and perfect on a cold, rainy night.
In the winter, my 30 minute meal is white bean soup and biscuits. In the summer, it's a grilled beef tenderloin filet with spiced couscous and a salad.
Yup, it's generally pasta in my household as well. Mostly, I add some beans for protein such as the chickpea stew on epicurious. Two weeks ago I had just got new braces and everything hurt and I came home hungry and late. I needed something soft, quick and nutritious. Luckily, the previous weekend I'd watched an episode of Everyday Food that featured a simple Pasta with Almond Pea Pesto: http://www.marthastewart.com/page.jht... This was exactly what I needed. Simple, filling and good.
Couscous goes to the table pretty quickly too. I add chopped kalamata olives, green onions, some feta, golden raisins, cubed baked tofu, steamed broccoli florets.
Precut veggies from Trader Joe's such as sliced mushrooms and diced butternut squash help add fiber to a potato gnocchi saute.
Chicken fajitas - slice chicken breast, a sliced onion and one or two rough chopped garlic cloves for each breast. Throw the chicken into a HOT cast iron skillet, season with salt and pepper and saute until all the water cooks off, then throw on the onions. Cover and keep on high heat until the onions wilt. Remove cover and toss ingredients together, again cooking off the liquid. Deglaze pan with water to get the carmel color and more flavor ON the chicken as well as IN the chicken (the lid does this through steaming process). Throw in chunks of zucchini and yellow squash.
Serve with salsa, cheese, sour cream and of course flour tortillas.
Grilled vegetables w/ shiritaki noodles ... I grill whatever veggies I've got, usually eggplant, onions, tomatoes, zucchini, broccoli/cauli sprinkled heavily with garlic salt, then chop them up and stirfry with rinsed shirtakis, adding in a little bit of soy sauce, a little apple cider or balsamic vinegar, freshly ground pepper, and a little lemon juice. Then I either toss in some shredded roasted chicken or some scrambled egg whites.
Miso Soup w/ Greens, Mushrooms and Eggs
I chop up collard greens, kale, mustard greens, asparagus, shiitakes, portobello, oyster, and criminis, then allow to cook thoroughly in miso broth with a couple of cloves of crushed garlic. While they cook, I create an egg white pancake (preseasoned with a garlic seasoning blend), then once this is cooked, slice and stir into the soup to allow it to soak up some of the soup's flavor. I really love this because it just tastes so clean going down as well as in my mouth :) I suppose others might add ginger, but I can't stand the stuff, so...
My husband loves Massaman Curry so I keep a can of the curry paste and a can of coconut milk on hand. (We stock up on the cans of Massaman Curry paste when we visit an oriental grocery store about an hour away. Their prices are much cheaper than my local supermarket.) Then all I need to do is slice some chicken breasts, peel and cut up a sweet potato or two and slice an onion into narrow wedges. I pre-cook the sweet potatos by steaming them in the microwave but otherwise everything is cooked in the sauce. Serve with brown rice which does take longer than 30 minutes to cook but white rice is only 20 minutes. I like green beans on the side.
My standby (healthy) fast dinner. quick saute of cabbage, broccoli, slivered carrots, peppers (whatever vegies you have laying around - mushrooms are awesome) use a little olive oil and Braggs Liquid Omino (it's like soy sauce but better for you - found in all health food stores). Then sprinkle with spike seasoning, some sesame seeds, a good grated cheese (cheddar or monteray jack). I can eat this forever. If you have time, fix some good brown rice - put vegies over that for even heartier.
I made a classic red-sauce-Italian-resto chicken parmesean last night with a ceasar salad, garlic bread and a tiny bit of spaghetti.
It always surprises me how quickly this dinner goes together. I do make large batches of basic marina frequently and freeze portions flat in ziplocs (so they defrost more quickly and take up less freezer space) so that obviously makes it quicker to prepare.
Tonight's dinner will be one of our new favorites - a sort of Cajun hash creation with diced andouille, onions, & potatoes (dh hates bell peppers if they're identifiable, otherwise they'd go in as well) topped with over-easy eggs and toast on the side. (I hate cooking fried eggs for 5 people - ends up being a dozen eggs! 3 for dh, 3 for son, 2 each for my daughters and I - but it's worth it.)
White rice, any leafy green stir fried in garlic and a little oil, and some pantry staples are the usual Chinese household "Uh oh there's no food left" meal.
Pantry staples might include pork sung (dried shredded meat), furikake (Japanese seasoning including dried seaweed and assorted fish flavored colored flakes), tofu lu (fermented spicy tofu), or any other heavily flavored non perishable item.
Well-balanced porridge and fried rice concoctions can usually be made with stuff out of the freezer, if there's leftover rice.
I like to look in the fridge, make a few things that don't necessarily go together, and call dinner that night "fusion." Like when we had spaghetti with tomato sauce and a steamed fish with soy sauce and green onions.
This is a quick and easy dish.
REC: Cajun Mustard Shrimp
Serves: 3
1 lb. raw shrimp, peeled and deveined
1 T olive oil
1 T butter
1 medium clove garlic
dash crushed red pepper
1⁄4 c dry white wine or vermouth
4 T jalapeno pepper jelly
2 T whole grain mustard
2 T Dijon mustard
1. Heat skillet with olive oil. Saute shrimp in batches until pink but not cooked entirely. Remove from skillet and set aside.
2. Melt butter in skillet and crush garlic into pan. Add crushed red pepper and saute until aroma of garlic is evident.
3. Add dry white wine and scrap up any browned pieces from bottom of pan. Add jelly, and two kinds of mustard. Whisk together and let cook for 2-3 minutes.
4. Return shrimp to skillet and finish cooking in the hot sauce.
5. Serve over rice.
I use 21-25 size shrimp.
Pan seared tilapia (sprinkled with Penzey's Northwoods seasoning, with side of basmati rice and a green vegetable simply sauteed.
Black bean soup made with canned black beans and cornbread.
Parmesan chicken (see Gourmet cookbook or Epicurious)
Frozen sausage pan-grilled with pasta/rice side and steamed spinach.
Frittata with whatever veggies, cheese, meats I have available. Usually served with a salad and bread.
My other "quickie" is paninis with whatever is in the fridge and/if I have some good bread. I have a panini grill.
Seared tuna. Dredge one side in mixture of crushed black & white peppercorns. Sear on the peppercorn side for 1 minute at high temp. Flip, reduce heat to med/high and sear for 3 minutes. Done. I usually serve with steamed broccoli and carrots and some nice bread. Longest cooking time is 15 minutes for the vegies.
1. Basic fish dinner: white rice, steamed asparagus (or zapped frozen veg), sautéed fish: season small flat fish or fillets and dredge in flour. Sautée in hot butter on flesh side three minutes, turn, top each with a dollop of fresh salsa, put pan into a preheated 400 oven for four or five minutes.
2. Steamed Prole Food: cut some thin-skinned potatoes in halves or quarters (depending on size), lay into a steamer, season. Shred a small head of cabbage, lay that over potatoes, season. Top with big chunks of kielbasa, put the lid on, set over boiling water for about half an hour. Get silly with the butter and sour cream if you want to.
3. $$ No Object: Fry up a bag of hash browns or the Reser's potato chunks, mixed with onion and a couple of sliced-up Hungarian banana peppers. Make a green salad. Grill two bone-in ribeyes. Devour.
Made fish taco's last night.
Coated tilapia liberally with spices, few drops of oil. Set aside while I cut up veggies and avocado. Mixed some mayo (didn't have sour cream) w/chipolte sauce, lime and scallions. Cooked fish in lightly oiled non-stick skillet. Heated tortillas over other burner while fish was cooking.
The IQF shrimp are fantastic, you can pull them out of the freezer and defrost under running water in minutes. Stir fry is my favorite quick dinner, I keep tons of different sauces in the fridge to "doctor" up, plus veg which don't require much prep work (baby carrots, froz edamame).
For when I'm feeling low-class, but not quite low enough to just open a bag of chocolate chip cookies, I cut several baking potatoes into 1" slices, cut several onions in half and pop them both in the microwave until they're half done. Then I put them in a roasting pan with some stock, nuke a head of garlic for a minute or so, stick that in, layer bacon on top and put it in a 350 oven until done. Cheese also helps.
It's amazingly good and amazingly filling, and plenty for dinner just by itself. Kielbasa is perfect with it.
What Pei said about stir-fries, only I use leftover brown rice, which I keep around expressly for that purpose. Or else I boil some water in my electric kettle and pour it over rice/mung bean/whatever noodles and some dried shiitake. And instead of the dry pantry staples Pei mentioned, I use Chinese white wine, mirin, fermented bean paste or miso, lime or lemon juice or Chinese vinegar, oyster/hoisin/chili/whatever sauce, shrimp paste, or whatever seems like it'd go with the ingredients I have on hand. I may shred a carrot into it. Scallions are always good.
And I often throw in an egg.
I like to make quick stir fries. I keep canned straw mushrooms and sliced bamboo in my pantry and if I'm in a hurry use frozen veggies rather than washing all those leafy greens.
I also like to make Asian noodle soups. Just heat up a can of chicken broth, add hondashi and a splash of soy, and the ingredients. I like udon with bean sprouts, shredded szechaun cabbage (in a package from chinatown you just rip open), chives, and some sesame oil.
i like to make a spinach pasta dish.
Saute chopped onion and garlic in some olive oil until golden, then add either a package of frozen spinach, thawed, (which i always seem to have on hand)or fresh spinach (not sure about the amount, probably about a pound) lots and lots of basil, and parsley, and S&P to taste. Cook some linguine (i use fresh from the store) and toss with the spinach and top with cheese. it actually only takes about 15 minutes to make, leaving you plenty of time to toss a salad or whatever else you're having with your meal.
re: RiJaAr
i used to make stir fry too, but my DH hates it so no more...unless i'm alone. :(

OpenCV is an open-source software component library for computer vision application development. OpenCV is a powerful tool for prototyping embedded vision algorithms. Originally released in 2000, it has been downloaded over 3.5 million times. The OpenCV library supports over 2,500 functions and contains dozens of valuable vision application examples. The library supports C, C++, and Python and has been ported to Windows, Linux, Android, MAC OS X and iOS.
The most difficult part of using OpenCV is building the library and configuring the tools. The OpenCV development team has made great strides in simplifying the OpenCV build process, but it can still be time consuming. To make it as easy as possible to start using OpenCV, BDTI has created the Quick-Start...

The additional code is required to display the Sobel X,Y, angle, and magnitude outputs.
The OpenCV Canny function does not expose this data.
For Figure 14 (and the demo) I want to show the user what this intermediate data looks like.
The following lines are NOT required for Canny operation:
Sobel( blurred, grad_x, CV_32F, 1, 0, Ksize, 1, 0, BORDER_DEFAULT );
Sobel( blurred, grad_y, CV_32F, 0, 1, Ksize, 1, 0, BORDER_DEFAULT );
cartToPolar( grad_x, grad_y, magnitude, angle, true );
threshold( magnitude, magnitude, LowThres, 0, THRESH_TOZERO );
threshold( grad_x, grad_x, LowThres, 0, THRESH_TOZERO );
threshold( grad_y, grad_y, LowThres, 0, THRESH_TOZERO );
Mat mask, MaskedAngle;
Mat bmask = Mat::zeros(magnitude.rows, magnitude.cols, CV_8U );
threshold( magnitude, mask, LowThres, 1, THRESH_BINARY );
mask.convertTo( bmask, CV_8U );
angle.copyTo( MaskedAngle, bmask );
Thank you for this great Quick-Start OpenCV Kit!
Being more used to the Windows OS myself, this definitely got me up and running very rapidly!
In the CannyEdgeDetection example code, you have calls to the Gaussian/Sobel/cartToPolar OpenCV functions, in addition to the Canny function call.
I assume that the Canny function is also doing these operations.
Can you confirm that this is the case, and that you have called these functions redundantly for illustrative purposes?

10.6: Disable Spotlight and remove Spotlight icon from menu
I see a potential problem with this hint. It suggests that in order to disable the Spotlight menu, you should simply change its permissions to disallow its opening. Not to be rude, @wisemagic, but this seems like kind of a workaround solution, and it doesn't actually change any predefined, valid settings like most Mac OS X Hints do.
But hey, it works, doesn't it? We'll just have to see what happens after repairing permissions… ;-)

Steve may have stepped down from being Apple's CEO, but his ability to stay hungry and stay foolish will keep him involved in this business world.
Your work is going to fill a large part of your life, and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work. And the only way to do great work is to love what you do.

Moderntales mystery graphic novel begins Monday!
Submitted by Tim Broderick on February 20, 2003 - 15:56
