Tips For Switching A Household Of 6 To Gluten-Free
Posted 30 January 2013 - 08:08 AM
We have four boys (not even teenagers and oh my they eat!) and we go through a lot of bread and pasta items. Obviously with it being winter fresh fruits and veggies are more expensive so that is why we've been eating more of the starch items. I know from experience that the gluten-free items have a different taste.
How do I satisfy all the palates of our home and make sure we are staying within a budget and gluten-free? Do you have any sample shopping lists you can share of things you buy on a regular basis. Besides glutenfreegirl.com what are some other websites that show how to cook/bake/eat gluten-free?

Thank you! It does help. My husband is so set in his ways though that he may be my biggest road block than the grocery store. He doesn't understand the amount of pain I'm in.
Be sure to let him see it!!! Don't hold anything back ...well, maybe one thing

Since those 3 health food stores are within walking distance from my home, I keep track of which products are the cheapest where, and still it's a real challenge. Mushrooms are healthy but somewhat expensive, so I stretch them by sauteeing them with garlic, green onions and scallions, water chestnuts, peeled cucumbers, celery, red bell peppers, green chiles, or sometimes whatever is the cheapest. Yesterday, big red bell peppers were 3 for $1.00, which I also thought was amazing, in the opposite way. Rice is pretty inexpensive, and adding green onions, cheaper green vegetables, zucchini, corn, etc. to it works well. I bought vegetable broth once for $4.00 but now I make my own by boiling any vegetables I have in a large pan of water, and adding Kitchen Bouguet, which is a soup extender that my mother taught me about years ago. It's so much cheaper and gives a good beef flavor (I am vegan, so don't eat meat).
There is only one cheese that I can use, and it's Vegan Gourmet Mozarella, at $4.49 a package. The yeast-free bread is $7.49. Soy hot dogs cost $2.99 so that's reasonable, and they're good on corn tortillas. Hey, that's how I stretch some things, is to roll them in a slightly sauteed corn tortilla or a cold piece of romaine lettuce instead of a gluten-free bread, which doesn't agree with me because of the potato flours they so often use. Reading labels to avoid casein & whey in cheese and other products is essential, along with whatever intolerances you have. Sure wish I had a magnifying glass at all times though, because some of the print is so small. I do a lot of cooking at home, and that seems to help. I'm very leery of eating out because you never know what is going on.
Soy Delicious ice cream is great, and I also cut up corn tortillas and make my own corn chips. I add spaghetti sauce or pizza sauce to crushed nuts and use that as a dip with the chips. Walden Farms makes a broad array of salad dressings, pancake syrups, jams, toppings, etc. with no carbs, no calories, no protein. Check them out if you have a chance. Also, Mexican markets and Asian markets sometimes have much cheaper produce because they sell in volume. Seaweed wraps are about $2.99 a package and taste great with vegetables inside. La Choy makes gluten-free soy sauce.
I suggest taking several large boxes and filling them with everything gluten-free and milk & dairy free you can find in your cupboards first. Then purchase whatever is missing to round out a couple of weeks of eating, or at least one week, because success is all in the planning. When you have the foods there you will be more and more likely to stick to the diet and really enjoy eating. Write out all the foods you like that are gluten free and milk and dairy free, then plan your breakfasts, lunches and dinners. Put the foods where they're convenient to reach. Limit your utensils and pans to as few as possible. Cook as many foods at once as you can, cross-referencing the ingredients for use in more than one dish. Sample as you go along. Eat every couple of hours. Drink lots of water. Play music as you're cooking. Talk to your family and get them involved. Keep a routine schedule of preparing, serving and eating. Ask for feedback. Try new foods. Check as often as possible to see what the prices are. Good luck!

After many years of suffering from Late Stage Lyme Disease I became Gluten intolerant and I'm extremely sensitive.
Posted 04 February 2013 - 09:53 PM
We have drastically decreased our amount of gluten-free processed foods as well and that has helped a ton.
We eat whatever we can that is in season (right now in the upper Midwest, lots of squash!!) Also, potatoes, meats (lots of chicken), vegetables, fruits, rice. Lots of eggs, omelettes, etc. My kids love Chebe rolls. Most Mexican and Indian dishes can easily (and cheaply) be made gluten-free. We also eat a ton more fish than we used to. My kiddos actually like Tilapia and I've found a ton to do with it on Pinterest. There are tons and tons of cheap and easy gluten-free recipes for families on there as well.
It will get easier with time...

Oranges can get cheap this time of year. Bananas too. Been finding blueberries at a good price too, oddly enough.
If I were on a really tight budget for food I'd stick with leftovers for lunches, not sandwiches, as the bread is twice the price. Can also save on cooking time too.

Agree on the potatoes. You can use them a variety of ways. Daughter is on the South Beach diet now so can't eat these things but... I would make mashed potatoes and then top them with a meat gravy. Either hamburger with lots of chopped onions and celery, or chicken, usually with canned chicken (can get coupons for that) or turkey gravy, again usually using canned turkey. I often get the canned meats at Costco. To make the gravy, brown your beef or add your cooked chicken or turkey to a large skillet. You can even use leftovers for this. Then add some sweet rice flour. You can get this for cheap in the Asian section if your store has such a section. I never really measure this but probably something like 1 T. for 4 servings. Cook it through for a minute then slowly add enough broth to make a gravy. Make sure that your broth is gluten-free. I often add parsley and some black pepper to the gravy.
You can make a Shepards/Cottage pie by starting with a base of cooked meat and gravy with vegetables. Cook all of these prior. Or you can used canned or frozen veg. Top with mashed potatoes and heat through in the oven until potatoes are beginning to brown. It helps to put a little butter or margarine on top. From there you can add a little cheese to the top or even mix some cheese into your mashed potatoes.
We loved Tater Tot Casserole but most cream soups are not gluten-free. So I made this using gravy or tomato sauce with a dab of ketchup added. The tomato stuff is better for ground beef than chicken or turkey, IMO. Add some green beans or corn to your meat.
Soups and stews are filling this time of year. I start with carrots, celery, onions and of course potatoes. Add whatever meat you have and then some tomato sauce or broth. Can thicken a bit if you want by whizzing a bit of it with an immersion blender then adding back in or by adding a small amount of instant mashed potato flakes.
Meatloaf and mashed potatoes is a favorite in our house. Of course you'll need something to add as a filler. I use gluten-free oats which are expensive but you only need a little. You can also use leftover gluten-free bread crumbs, crushed gluten-free Chex cereal or crushed gluten-free crackers. We love these with mashed potatoes.
A stuffed baked potato is another favorite meal.
Daughter loves sweet potatoes and they're easy to do in the microwave. I just serve with salt and butter.
Rice is another cheap and filling add on to a meal. You can use brown or white. You can add it to soup, make porcupine meatballs, use it for Spanish rice, add peas and Parmesan cheese, cheese and broccoli or some other veggie.
Beans are really cheap and filling. They provide both protein and carbs and they are what I eat almost daily. Dried beans are especially cheap. I can often find them for around a dollar or slightly more for a pound. A pound should be enough for a meal and you might even have leftovers. These days because they are usually so fresh in the stores they cook a lot more quickly than they used to. I use the quick soak method. Wash and pick over the beans. Add water to about 2" above the beans that are in a large pot. Bring to a boil. Boil for 2 minutes. Turn off the heat. Cover and let sit for an hour. Then change out the water. Add the same amount of water. Bring to a boil, turn down heat to low, cover and cook until tender. This can take as little as 45 minutes, depending on what kind you cook. The smaller the bean, the quicker they cook. I find that I have to shave some time off of what it says on the package or they'll get mushy. Add tomatoes, salt or whatever other seasonings after they cook.
You can get gluten-free pasta. My husband is Italian and he didn't even notice a difference. It does cost a little more than regular pasta so we tend to eat more rice than we do pasta. But daughter prefers the pasta. One way to lessen the amount you use is to put it in a soup with lots of beans and other veggies. I find that if they see the pasta it is satisfying to them.
Popcorn makes the best snack! And it's super cheap if you pan pop it. One of my daughter's favorite lunches to take to school was a bag of leftover popcorn, an apple or some applesauce, baby carrots or carrot sticks and a piece of cheese. Easy, simple, and cheap!
Eggs are also a cheap source of protein. You can hard boil them, devil them, scramble them with a variety of things, even potatoes!

I absolutely LOVE the latch. It's OtterBox, so I knew it would be good quality, but it surprised me how many uses there are for it. I bought it to help my kids hang on to the iPad when they played games, but I find myself using it too. Now we most often use it to strap our iPad to the back of the car headrest so the kids can watch movies in the car.

Material Practices: Stitching, Fabric, and Textiles in the work of Contemporary Chinese Artists
Mao Zedong once said that revolution is not a dinner party. Less famously, he said it is not embroidery, either. Interestingly, however, some female contemporary Chinese artists have chosen to work with thread and textiles—and embroidery—in experimental, maybe even revolutionary ways. From Lin Tianmiao's overt exploration of sexuality, fecundity, and the aging and decay of the body, to Yin Xiuzhen's use of the embodied memories[…..]

I see a grey/black chair in the photos, but not as an option to purchase. Do you expect to receive more of the grey/black chairs?
Difficult (but not impossible) to assemble alone, and would have been very easy to assemble with help. These chairs are comfortable -- they aren't too deep, and the curve feels very natural. I like having a little bit of an arm rest, and with a soft sheepskin throw over the back (I bought the sheepskin rug from Ikea for these), the look is textured and the chair is even more comfortable!...

Retro Chiar Eams Style
Nice to the eyes. More flimsy than expected. But for the price they are a lot less than the *** chairs and do the job if you don't want to spend to much. The plastic is just not hugh quality. Not bad but when you have seen *** ones its far from the same quality. But they are much lower cost.Read More
Worth it.
They are plastic, so don't be surprised ... that's what you're purchasing. They are nice design, easy assembly, look sharp. If you plan to use these for high volume use, you may want something sturdier. I use them in the bedroom as changing chairs. Great.Read More

True to size of original at DWR
I spent a couple of months researching this dowel base Eames chair and the rocker version, almost pulling the trigger on the Modernica fiberglass proximity ($400!). The chairs arrived in 2 days, shipping cost a couple of bucks, and I put them together easily (4 hex screws, not complicated). General Measurements are very close to Eames specs listed on Design Within Reach's site (about a half an inch shy on all dimensions). Plastic Shell Finish is pure bright white, with subtle grained texture (similar to an egg's shell) only noticeable close up. The product detail shot looks to be more of a glossy finish, but the actual product is definitely matte. Very subtly "dimpling" noticed on seat above 4 areas where base attaches to the chair. This may very well be the case with the legit Eames version too, but worth mentioning. Base is adequate. Black cross beams with silver hex screws. The wooden dowel legs are fine- lighter colored birch (or perhaps "beech") finish. Glossy-ness of urethane finish on the wood is slightly cheap looking- though it should dull with time. I've seen the White on White version in person, and it excels in this area- their version features a more rich looking walnut, but is more expensive. Black floor caps on bottom of legs are nothing to write home about. All in all, a good product for the money.Read More
great value
I love these chairs! They are a great looking knock off of a midcentury modern icon that I could never afford otherwise. Shipping was super fast, simple to put together (I think it took less than 10 minutes to assemble both) and they are also quite comfortable. One bit of info that is not included in the description is that the arm hieght is 26" off the floor. I took a risk ordering these not knowing if they would fit undr my dining table or not and fortunatley, they work for me.Read More
Love these chairs. And everyone else does too! They are knock offs of more expensive chairs, but are great quality. I am a heavy guy - about 230lbs - and these fit me nicely and are super strong. However I have noticed that I need to tighten the screws about once every couple of months - so save that allen wrench! Also, as they are white, they get dirty fast. I live in NYC and it's dusty. These get grey after about a month. I get a bucket of water, wash cloth and some Mr. Clean, and it does the trick. You will need to do this about once a month or so. But again you will have that with any white furniture. These chairs do not creak, wobble or make noises. They do have some dimples around the leg areas on two of the chairs but I did look at the more expensive kind and they have the same. Oh and every designer on HGTV is now using chairs like these.Read More
Excellent Value
Good quality, sturdy chairs. The holes for the legs didn't line up perfectly, but it wasn't a big deal and we made it fit pretty quickly. Great design at a fraction of the cost! I would go with the armless chairs if you're looking for desk chairs as the arms are pretty high and would not fit under my desk. Awesome chairs overall!Read More
Great reproductions for the price
I love these chairs. They are super comfortable and easy to clean, which is exactly what we were looking for with active boys at home! The original Eames chairs are fiberglass with a smooth finish, but these reproductions are molded plastic with a very slight texture. When they get dirty I need to use a little elbow grease to get them completely clean, whereas the fiberglass wipes off super easy. Still, for the price they are well worth it. I would buy them again!Read More

Solar Impulse Launches Solar-Powered Flight from San Francisco to New York
The Solar Impulse plane is an entirely sun-powered, single-seat airplane that is capable of flying for 36 hours consecutively. In late March we got our first glimpse of the Solar Impulse, and last week it completed its final test flight before embarking on the coast-to-coast flight. The amazing plane's wingspan of 208 feet is as wide as that of a Boeing 747, and at just 3,500 pounds, it weighs about as much as a small car. The Solar Impulse is the first airplane ever to be able to fly both day and night using solar energy. Its wings are covered with 12,000 solar cells, which are used to charge the 881 pounds of lithium-ion batteries it carries. Once fully charged, those batteries enable the plane to fly all night.
Piccard and Borschberg will be taking off very early and landing very late on each flight in order to avoid commercial traffic and turbulence. "I went to bed very early; I was 9:00 in bed," Piccard told the bleary-eyed press.
"It's a fabulous way, I believe, to promote clean technologies, to show what our world could do if we're really applying these technologies everywhere. We have to understand that the technologies that we have on board, if they were globally used everywhere — also on the ground — could help our world to divide by two its energy consumption and to provide half of the rest with renewable sources. That's why thousands of people have signed up to support this Clean Generation initiative."

A Biologist's Perspective
In this video originally featured in March of 2012, Dr. David Finch, a biologist at New York University, discusses his thoughts on both Creationism and the effects of "new atheists" like Richard Dawkins.
The Resource Finder has powerful filtering features — check out the tutorial to learn more.
In this video originally featured in March of 2012, Dr. David Finch, a biologist at New York University, discusses his thoughts on both Creationism and the effects of "new atheists" like Richard Dawkins.
This entry was originally posted on February 13, 2010. While the question of evolutionary predisposition toward religious belief may be challenging, Christians need not see it as threatening. In fact, this is actually a Pauline notion that is explored in Romans 1, where Paul claims that it is in mankind's nature to "know God".
In this video conversation, N.T. Wright discusses how the Enlightenment worldview -- which clearly separates God from the world -- has impacted our view of Scripture, and why cleaning the "spectacles" through which we view the world can help us see both Scripture and the world more clearly.
In this talk, Professor Plantinga addresses the fact that many contemporary thinkers—including many theologians—believe that God cannot perform miracles, providentially guide history, or interact in the lives of people, as these activities would be contrary to science. Plantinga, on the other hand, makes the case that this popular view is mistaken; excluding divine action in the world is not a central feature of natural science itself, but a philosophical or theological preference that has been added on to science (and can just as readily be removed). Plantinga concludes that it is completely logical to accept the miracles of the Bible and support contemporary science.
In today's video, Dr. David Finch, a biologist at New York University, discusses his thoughts on both Creationism and the effects of "new atheists" like Richard Dawkins.
In this video, physicist Ard Louis describes that our value and purpose do not come from whether or not we were created by an evolutionary mechanism. Evolution may tell us something about how we were created, but it is not the source of our worth.
In this series, Ryan Pettey offers several clips from his powerful documentary "From the Dust". This feature-length film is divided up into various sections, each of which wrestles with the difficult problems that arise when reconciling Scripture with the theory of evolution. A light of hope dawns on the science-faith conversation, however, as scientists and theologians engage in honest dialogue about tough issues such as the interpretation of Genesis, the nature of the Fall, and the idea of random design. Their profound insights are sure to enlighten all minds, raise deeper questions, and provoke new thought.
In this paper, Venema tells the story of his transition from support of Intelligent Design to the view that God uses evolution as a creative mechanism.
Ian Hutchinson draws a sharp line between science and scientism. Scientism holds that all truth emerges from scientific study and explanation. Hutchinson, however, disagrees as he points to science's inability to establish truth about, for example, the events that have occurred in humanity's history on earth. He specifically engages Richard Dawkins assertions (from the book The God Delusion) that God is a scientific hypothesis that has been essentially disproved by science and that evolution explains religion as nothing more than a natural phenomenon.
In this paper, adapted from an article from Science & Christian Belief, Dr. Oliver R. Barclay compares and contrasts the biblical view of design in nature with modern design arguments.
In this paper, Venema explores several examples in biology where random mutation and natural selection have indeed led to substantial increases in biological information. The question of how new specified information arises in DNA, far from being an "enigma", is one of great interest to biologists.
In this paper, MIT professor Ian Hutchinson addresses the question of how to engage arguments put forward by the New Atheists. In doing so, he offers a critique of scientism, the assumption that scientific knowledge is all the real knowledge there is.
Mathematics professor James Bradley looks at the design argument presented in William Dembski's book The Design Inference and offers his criticisms on the accuracy of the model.
In this article, Venema offers his review of Stephen Meyer's book Signature in the Cell.
In this video Conversation, Rev. N.T. Wright responds to the controversy in evangelicalism about evolution. Is this a "culture war" issue?
Can science provide substantive insight into the question of God's existence? Isaac's paper examines three schools of thought regarding the possibility of detecting God's existence through science: Evolutionism, Creationism, and Intelligent Design.
Alexander notes that while the biological theory of evolution is not itself an ideology, it has been used for ideological purposes since 1859 to defend everything from eugenics to capitalism to racism to atheism.
In this video Conversation, Joel Hunter remarks: "I believe that all truth is God's truth," says Hunter, "so I am never afraid of truth—no matter who it comes from."
In this brief video Conversation, Os Guinness addresses the problem of holding a purely naturalistic worldview—one that does not coincide with many basic human concepts.
In this paper, Baylor philosophy professor Francis Beckwith distinguishes between Intelligent Design (ID) and Thomistic Design (TD).

Some parents of students at Haycock Elementary School in McLean remain disheartened about what they say are lackluster efforts by the Fairfax County School Board to alleviate crowding at the school.
Nearly 200 parents and community members attended a meeting at Haycock Elementary School late last month to discuss facilities for the school�s 962 students, which is roughly 65 percent over its core capacity of 579 students.
In 2009, modular buildings were added to accommodate the overflow. The school currently utilizes 22 of these outdoor classrooms, most of which contain no plumbing, hallways or connection to the main school building. The crowding has also caused the school to no longer accept new students.
�The school is completely closed right now,� said FCPS board member Janie Strauss, who was in attendance at the October meeting. �No new students are coming in. They are being diverted to Churchill Road Elementary.�
A current plan to renovate the school by adding two additions onto the existing 10-acre property by August of 2015 is being called woefully inadequate by some parents because it is projected to allow the school to accommodate only 877 students, fewer than the school�s current student population.
A grassroots group calling itself �Build for Haycock�s Future� has created a petition intended to pause the process, and instead give significant consideration to viable alternatives, including land purchase and re-zoning, that they say will better meet the community�s needs. Nearly 1,000 community members have so far signed the petition.
At the October meeting, FCPS board member Janie Strauss told parents she would consider pursuing rezoning options for the school.
During a PTA meeting at the school on Wednesday, Principal Kelly Sheers relayed a message to parents from Strauss about that effort.
�Ms. Strauss acknowledged our growing general education and advanced academics population and indicated that there will be future programmatic changes to ensure we fit into the new building,� she said. �In summary, the county will pursue an R-2 zoning, [but only] once we begin our renovation in 2012-13. The R-2 would be for �future use.� In essence, if we are unable to fit into the newly designed building, R-2 zoning would allow us to keep the modular units and/or build a second level to the new addition�.
Sheers went on to say that the school�s Renovation Committee was hopeful to make some small changes to the design plan. However, because of the current R-1 zoning, the school is limited in making any adjustments.
�No additional classrooms or square footage adjustments in the current design can be made,� she said. �Once we are into the actual renovation and are granted the R-2 zoning, Ms. Strauss�indicated that minor adjustments could possibly be made.�
Many parents, who wanted immediate action and were hoping for an R-3 zoning designation to accommodate a student body of upward of 1,200, were disappointed with the news.
�Janie basically changed her mind on all points of working with the Haycock community to make any attempt to change this renovation plan,� said parent Connie Rooke. �She flat out refused to pursue re-zoning now. She refused to consider any changes to the current proposed renovation plan.�
Strauss did not attend Wednesdays� PTA meeting at the school, but she addressed the issue in a phone interview that same evening.
�An R-3 building of that size, while accommodating a student body of upwards of 1,200, would most likely require changes in storm water management, parking, a relocation of utilities and street improvements and a loss of green space,� she said. �FCPS does not think an elementary school of that size is the best environment for young children. Additional elementary schools will be built to help alleviate the growth in the Tysons area and we will apply for zoning for future use.�
Strauss said that in addition, many students in the Marshall High School Pyramid will be moved to newly constructed classrooms at other locations instead of attending Haycock.
�We are already in the process of building many new classrooms at locations such as Westgate and Lemon Road elementary schools,� she said.
�The parents at Haycock are crushed ... we have tried so hard to trust Janie, only to be failed once again,� Rooke said.
�She told us all in October that she would take action to alter the currently proposed plan at our request, and now she says they will not do anything until the proposed construction process has already begun.�

The latest game that has really captured my attention (on paper at least) is Mass Effect 2, which is a science fiction video action game with a very heavy focus on storytelling and emotional relationship between characters.
Has anyone played it yet? What did you think?
Here's from a recent review:
It's often been asked if it's possible for games to make people cry. Mass Effect 2 sidesteps the question by leaving it up to you whether you want to commiserate or smirk cynically at the pain of others. It would come across as contrived in many games, however the writing here is strong enough that it feels authentic when a character breaks down in tears. And fortunately, the drama has been leavened with a healthy dose of humor to keep things from getting too heavy.

For the Charles H. Flowers High School football team, its success is not dependent upon the speedy legs of just one or two star running backs, or even the stud arm of some collegiate-quality quarterback. Instead, the Jaguars have leaned on the experience of their veteran offensive line to simply overpower and out-discipline opponents on their way to a 5-0 record midway through the 2013 season.
In Saturday's 48-0 victory against Oxon Hill (2-3) at Friendly in Fort Washington, it did not matter which running back received the ball. The visiting Flowers' offensive line, which features four seniors and a junior center on its starting unit, helped an assortment of nine Jaguar ball carriers to rush for 348 yards on 39 carries.
It did not matter if coach Mike Mayo called for a dive, sweep, off-tackle or misdirection run, the offensive line worked like a well-oiled machine giving ball-carriers huge gaps to gain consistent chunks of yardage.
Even though quarterback Malik White only dropped back to pass four times, he was well-protected, allowing him time to connect for three completions — two being touchdowns of the 55 and 56 yards.
"I think we got the best line in the county," said senior running back Jamal Higgs, who finished with 99 rushing yards and three touchdowns on five carries. "They open up the lanes for us and it is easy. We just do the rest."
What gives Flowers' offensive line an edge is the fact that this group has been together for the better part of the past three seasons. They have also grown comfortable in executing Mayo's game plan.
"They all played last year, and they have worked very hard, and they take a lot of pride in what they do," Mayo said. "There is nothing like having an experienced group of lineman."
Led by two 300-pound senior tackles in Dorian Cash and Mikeal Mills, along with two senior guards in John Robinson and Davon Reaves, the strength in the line does not necessarily come from its size, but rather its dedication to perfection during the practice week.
"We don't say that we are big and bad, but we dominate," Cash said. "We go through it every day during practice. We go through all of our drills and everything just like it is a game-day situation. Every practice we have is a game day for us."
Although the majority of the offensive line has had the advantage of having years to get to know the offense, junior starting center Emeka Ugweje is in his first season with Flowers and has relied on his fellow lineman to catch him up to speed throughout the summer and practice weeks.
"It was good that he came in, we taught him up," Cash said. "As you can see, he still gets stuff wrong. We still get on him and make sure he does it right the next play."
Jaguars' offensive line coach Hameed Sharif said that the group is not only successful because of the starting unit, but the addition of a well-prepared rotation of reserves keeps the line fresh at all times allowing for the maximum push.
The linemen take turns practicing at the different guard and tackle positions during the week. This gets them all comfortable with the nuances of each spot. Coach Sharif said he rotates his lineman in and out of the game when needed. When the backups are in, there is little difference in the offense's ability to execute.
Take senior guard Nigel Moxam for example. He is not on the starting unit, but he was ready when called upon in the fourth quarter serving as the lead blocker for Higgs, who followed Moxam 30 yards to the end zone for the game's final score.
"We really work at getting all the kids ready to play," Sharif said. "Anytime I can get them on the field, I get them on the field because we don't want to just start over, we just want to reload. That's our motto: reload, reload, and reload."

A solid plastic coin is placed flat inside the container, and the cover is put on. The cover has eight holes in it; you can see the coin inside the box. Each of eight spikes are then pushed through the holes in the box, and each goes right through the solid coin, pushing out through the bottom of the box! When the spikes are removed and the cover is opened, the solid coin is still laying flat in the box! This is really amazing- you can do the trick even if you don't know how it works!
Completely automatic- it works by itself!
Suitable for young magicians over age 7 but be aware that SPIKES MAY BE A CHOKING HAZARD. Colors may vary from photo and demo.
You can also use your own ordinary half dollar coin in place of the plastic coin. It works just as easily- and is very impressive!
Thomas Fitzgerald introduced the concept of this trick. Interested in magic history? Visit our free online Magic Library, full of biographies of famous magicians plus lots of magic history and trivia!

Gallery: Cardborigami Unfolds Into a Portable Housing Shelter
During Hovsepian's time at school she explored architectural skins and came up with the idea to design a cheap, transportable emergency housing shelter specifically for the homeless. After many iterations and design ideas, she settled on using recycled cardboard as the material because it was inexpensive, lightweight, sustainable, naturally insulated and had structural properties. Origami was the basis for the structure because it gave the cardboard even more structure and could easily be folded down for transport.
Hovsepian has built larger pavilion type shelters as well as smaller ones for individual use, and she is currently in talks with a non-profit organization called Everyone Deserves a Roof to find a manufacturer to develop the concept into a real product. Field research and testing of the current homeless shelter has already occurred on Skid Row in Los Angeles. Hovespian also hopes to refine the design so it becomes waterproof, fire-retardant, more comfortable and more portable. Eventually, the shelters would be distributed through EDAR to those individuals who need them.

Inspiration is a very diplomatic term there.
Based on inherent need, it's not surprising that many people have thought of this idea – but very few have turned the thought into action.
I'm interested in your Shellhouse project – the introduction of a simple radio transforms the space from a cringe-worthy attempt to turn the life of a homeless person into "art"; to making it a useable innovation.
In Australia we focus on trying to find regular accommodation and employment for people who have become homeless, rather than setting that as a long term goal and finding an interim to briefly better their life.
Is there a way you could corroborate ideas to create something amazing?
Random suggestion: Can you bind used plastic bags to the surface to create something more weather resilient?
Awesome work.

My project SHELLHOUSE LIVING PORTABLE (2007) was by any chance, an inspiration for you guys?Thanks.c.

Didn't Hirshen and Van der Ryn do something very similar at Berkeley in the 60s?

I don't get the "cutesy" act so much from my girls. I get the "lady logic" arguments that flummox me to the point that I can't even form a coherent sentence with which to reply.
When cornered, the safest answer is always no. Beyond that fall back to go ask your mother ... Because only a true expert can win that game.
...At least that appears to have been my dad's strategy for dealing with my sister.

Welcome to Not Quite As Much Music City.
The International Bluegrass Music Association had its annual awards show last night at a sold-out Ryman Auditorium — the same stage on which bluegrass as we know it was born in late 1945 — and after a weekend of (highly recommended) "Fan Fest" concerts, the bluegrass folks will depart Nashville in favor of a three-year annual conference and awards show run in Raleigh, N.C.
Raleigh is a fine city, and in 1983 its North Carolina State University Wolfpack won an NCAA men's basketball championship.
What does that have to do with bluegrass? Well, nothing at all.

Maybe you´re right but I don
Maybe you´re right but I don´t think they would let him play if he wasn´t able to. (At least I hope so...)
i'm just so worry about him.
i'm just so worry about him. This man is more matter for me, than my father. No one can understand me. But this is true. And i can't see concerts- i'm afraid, i'll never see BJ, Mike and Frank. I'm crazy? maybe. But i need Billie. not like musician. Like person.
You don't understand me, yes?))
You´re definitely not crazy
You´re definitely not crazy Just Alice. Actually I even think I can understand you pretty well.
I mean, Billie is my role model, I admire him so much and so, like every Green Day fan , I´m worry about him, too. I just hope he does what´s best for him now.
You should add dirty rotten
You should add dirty rotten bastards to your setlist and im worried that I haventseen good riddance on your setlist so of course add that too.
Hey I was just wondering
Hey I was just wondering where people can mail fanmail to? I've tried to find an address online but nothing's come up, if someone could let me know that would be great xx

I still remember the
I still remember the Christmas of 2004 when I received as a gift...American Idiot. Was the first album I listened to Green Day and was also the first time I met them. American Idiot is the thing that I care about very much, because it's also my favorite album ever of Green Day album is thanks to this that my life has changed. For me, American Idiot is like an emotional memory. My dream is to revive this beautiful moment I've been through and continue to be happy. Thank you, Green Day!!!
Hey Bilie,Tre,and Mike I love
Hey Bilie,Tre,and Mike I love all of ya :) and I was wounding if you could come to Calgary Alberta or Edmonton Alberta please it would mean the world to me if you go to one of those lactions if you could that would be AWESOME AS FUCK I would love to meet all of you!!

I don't know if anyone will
I don't know if anyone will read this but there is a lot of things that I would suggest.
1. Try to find somewhere to play near Valencia, CA. I NEED to see you guys!
2. If you can, we need a song that is JUST like Take Back. That song is unexpected from punk/rockers. :)
3. Two words. Cover songs! I suggest Maybe The Offspring or Creed.
4. Whatever you do, don't take all the bullsh*t from the haters. It just drives me insane just hearing, "Oh Green Day sucks" or "Green Day hates America" or even "Green Day is gay" or some stupid sh*t like that.
5. I wonder...what are your plans for a new album?
6. This is for the fans. Is it a good thing that I have most of their albums except for "Tre!" which is coming in the mail tomorrow?
7. Go to Deviant art.com and search yourselves. YOU ARE EVERYWHERE.
and 8. Try to make another broadway musical, maybe with the Uno Dos Tre trilogy. I see a story in those albums. Lets see if we can work that out... :D
I don't know if Green Day
I don't know if Green Day gets this but if they do then I think I speak for everyone when I say that you should add Dirty Rotten Bastards to the setlists of your shows. Please consider this because I feel it would add to the amazingness of your show. Glad to see you guys are back on tour and better now!

Hi, Green Day! I must say

Hi, Green Day! I must say that I am very happy to see you, Billie, back on stages! I got the chills when I first saw you singing again! I wanted you to know that I am a huge fan of your music and of the man you are. I understand what you've been passing through, I have to deal with something like that since I was born, so I don't jugde you...My biggest dream is to watch a Green Day live concert but I can't go to one in the USA or another country... My only chance is if you come to Brazil! I would be sooooooo happy you don't even imagine! I live in a very small town, but if you guys come to Brazil, I would travel to any city or state to watch you!
Pleeeeeease, Green Day, Brazil misses you so much!

Holaaaa!! Qué bien, ya
Holaaaa!! Qué bien, ya conozco a otra persona española!! Besos :)
reading alot of these
reading alot of these comments are funny, pretty much most of them. so needy and whiney. if you want something badly enough you will do what it takes to get it. you want to see green day? do what it takes to see them where ever you can. dont bitch about how they dont or havent gone to certain places. try doing what they do, its not all fun and games. and for those who are "mad" or "upset" and even "appalled" from Billies actions at iHeart in Vegas, you need t "shut your mouth cuz youre talking too much" and "let yourself go!" that was punk fucking rock attitude. music is such bullshit today. they were the only band there! again its not all fun and games, its stressful in certain places and at certain times.
Can your photographers please
Can your photographers please take more photos of Tre when the band is performing. Always plenty of shots of Billie Joe in your photo galleries and Mike too but Tre (and Jason) seems to miss out. The fans like to see all our favourite guys!

"If the wheel isn't squeaking or there aren't pitchforks in hands why change it" you might say. The process of bringing to attention some basics in life is easier said than done in the Allen County Family Courthouse.
One basic is the right for a child to see a parent. Through a legal process of "withholding," a parent can keep a child of any minor age away from another parent for no reason whatsoever for any period of time.
The caveat? As the parent separated from your child, you must wait months and months for a hearing. Through Thanksgiving, Christmas, New Year's and library visits, music classes and more.
If you can show evidence of abuse or neglect, or you are a court-appointed representative, you can get an emergency hearing, but separating a child from a parent isn't considered abuse or neglect in Allen County.
I ask you to consider your Allen County courts today and know there are many parents without any access to a child because of scheduling.

Ana edged past American Jill Craybas 4-6, 6-1, 7-5 in the second round of the PTT Pattaya Open in Thailand.
Ana started indifferently. She was hitting the ball cleaning from the baseline, but served four double faults and was broken following a marathon game. Craybas, on the other hand, was a model of consistency. She held to lead 2-0 and had a break point for 3-0 that Ana saved.
With the American leading 2-1 a most unusual interruption occurred when the floodlights failed. There was a power cut that hit the entire resort at which the tournament is being held, and an intermission of some 25 minutes ensued.
Eventually power was restored and the players returned for a 5-minute warm-up. Ana looked markedly more assured and she broke back to level at 3-3. She had a break point to lead 5-3 but spurned it, and the momentum again shifted, this time in favour of Craybas.
The 36-year-old veteran exploited Ana's misfiring groundstrokes and clinched the first set 6-4.
As Ana slipped to 15-40 in the opening game of the second set, things were looking bleak for the No.2 seed and the vast majority of the near-capacity crowd, who offered Ana their vociferous support.
However, the 23-year-old saved both break points, the second with a forehand sledgehammer. She began to play very aggressively and Craybas had no answer to her piercing groundstrokes. Ana raced into a 5-0 lead.
The second set outcome was inevitable. Craybas regrouped at the beginning of the final set and the match became very competitive once more.
Ana moved a break ahead at 3-2, at which point she required courtside treatment for a shoulder complaint. When she returned to the court she was broken, but she continued to fight and her forehand caused more problems for Craybas.
The match was very much up for grabs at 5-5 when a close line call went in favour of Ana. Craybas was incensed, but she kept her cool and competed gamely. But she could not resist Ana's attacking play and the former world No.1 sealed what proved to be a match-winning break in the 11th game.
Ana served the match out with the minimum of fuss, in stark contrast to the two hours and 25 minutes that had gone before.
"Saving those break points at the start of the second set was crucial," said Ana.
"It was a really strange match, full of ups and downs, and the lights going out!"
Furthermore, several 'lets' had to be played, as balls from the neighbouring court occassionally interrupting rallies.
Ana added: "The conditions this evening were very different to yesterday afternoon, so I am happy that I was able to adapt and to come through this test. Jill played a very good match and she didn't really deserve to lose. I'm just happy to be through."
Ana will take on fifth seed Roberta Vinci of Italy in the quarter-finals on Friday.

The Hottest Male Athletes to Become Models
Over the past decade we've seen a startling number of athletes drop trou to model underwear for brands like Calvin Klein, Emporio Armani, and Lacoste, but the athlete-turned-model phenomenon dates back further than you might expect. Here, we round up the hottest jocks in Jockeys from the last 40 years in reverse chronological order.
Athlete: Thom Evans, Rugby
Models for: D.Hedral
In January, retired Scottish rugby player Thom Evans, who is now pursuing an acting career, launched his first modeling campaign as the new face of Italian underwear brand, D.Hedral. However, he has been in front of the camera lens before. Recent cover appearances include U.K. Men's Health, as well as the Olympic special issue of the British gay men's magazine Attitude.

Exorcismus (La posesion de Emma Evans)
Fifteen-year-old Emma Evans is like any other teenage girl. She thinks that her parents don't understand her. She longs for independence and a life free of family ties and responsibilities, and she is prepared to do anything to achieve it. But, one day she will be forced to face up to the consequences of her actions. Emma starts experiencing frightening fits. Her parents are convinced that her problems are either medical or psychological, but when doctors' tests are unable to draw any conclusions, the family is forced to look elsewhere for answers. It all started off as a bit of fun; Emma never really believed it, but the truth is there is something dark and sinister within her, and it won't take long to surface.

Move Chair
by Steelcase
At A Glance:
Sit and be moved. Literally. Under the seat cushion of the Move chair lies an innovative support system that conforms to your body. Flexors inside the seat curve with your curves and move as you move. So move around. Versatile, stackable, and environmental.
What's To Like:
The beauty of the Move Chair is its sleek design, cool colors, and comfortable seat. The price is pretty great too - anytime you can get such a versatile chair for less than $200 you're coming out a winner.
What's Not to Like:
The arms could be a little longer for comfort's sake, although we can see how their "shortness" works with the Move Chair's design as a whole.
The Bottom Line:
Stackable? Check. Versatile? Check. Sharp-looking? Check. The Move Chair is everything you're looking for in a conference chair or for when you need to break out some extra seating.
- Guest chair that also stacks five chairs high
- Light weight but Steelcase-quality durable
