Congratulations! Fourteen years, still going strong, and what a ride it's been - I'm so pleased to have been (and still be) part of the AN journey. That said, in honor of this occasion and everything Animation Nation stands for, I have one word for you...
What's the first thing you think of when you hear that word (besides those credit card commercials?) LoL I was at LACMA (L.A. County Museum of Art) the other day and it hit me like a ton of buses - ART is one of the only things in the world considered "priceless".
When you look around at life today, there's nothing but proof to back up that statement. We build million-dollar structures to feature and protect these priceless treasures of Art History. Every commercial revolves around visual multimedia. Technology's #1 selling point is audio-visual content. Every franchise, product, service, business, and idea out there is represented by a billion-dollar visual graphic or image.
This is called a "Brand."
Branding has been the official messenger and universal language of this planet for decades (and a lot longer if you count those paleolithic cave paintings.) So after all these years, here is the big question that still seems to be sweeping the creative community...
If these Brands are so valuable to most of the world, how come their creators don't seem to be?
Have I got your attention yet? I'm talking about you, me, US! WE are the creators and what we create is (potentially) PRICELESS!
I am very blessed to work as a full-time character layout artist on The Simpsons and receive outstanding payment and health benefits! This, however, makes me part of the vast creative minority. Most artists fall into the category of Freelance, Indie, or Unemployed (in some cases for years) and the reality is that even us full-time guys and gals are right back there when the work runs out (I, myself was laid off for 15 months.)
This isn't news! The entire creative industry is unpredictably organic in this way (and has been for decades), so wouldn't it be nice to have a means of financial support during these massive droughts? Something like, oh...say, a residual (royalty) for our work?
Musicians and writers already receive Creative Royalties - shouldn't this be an industrywide standard?
This is just one of the major issues, concerns, and suggested solutions within the creative community. There are lots more (and lots more we can DO about them) but the bottom line is that no one is going to fix this stuff for us. If we want to finally see improvement, we're going to have to stop complaining, start working together, and TAKE ACTION! And guess what...we have the power!! WE CAN!!!
If you agree or for any other reason feel the creative industries need an upgrade, please watch the above video then click here to read, sign, and share...
United We Brand: Artists Against Apathy! (The iPetition)
This petition is in no way meant to discount the industry perks we do receive as artists. It is simply a record of how many see room for improvement and are willing to ACT for progress within our industries. A small handful of artists already are, but it's going to take all of us working together, saying "No, I won't work unpaid overtime. Sorry, I can't just do this as a favor. My time, energy, and skills have value - just like yours."
Just because we love doing what we get paid for does not make it any less WORK!
On the contrary!! What we do is incredibly specialized. Creating art (in any form) is a tedious, laborious, heart-and-soul experience that takes a LOT out of any creator!!!
Given my current position and based on all work-for-hire scenarios, I am the one who needs this the least - and I still cared enough to act by creating and signing this petition. Why? Because we can (and will) ALL benefit from the progress and resolution it stands for! Want your voice to be heard? This is your Chance! Every one of us talks the talk...it's time we walked the walk! We are the artists!! We are the Brand and united...we are the change!!!
God Bless,
NOTE TO STUDENTS: Stay tuned to AN and the above links for future videos on how you can get directly involved in the Animation Industry by "paying your dues" without working for free, being (mis-)used, and contributing to a counterproductive cycle! =)

Good news! Looks like the petition for the United We Brand: Artists Against Apathy may have gone viral!
Signatures are coming in virtually every second!
Re: United We Brand: The iMovement For All Artists!
Went from 50 signatures to 655 overnight.
Re: United We Brand: The iMovement For All Artists!
I love it! Dig Chances video too. Although I have to say, if we the people are the Union, then we should be able to work anywhere without paying anyone but ourselves.
Re: United We Brand: The iMovement For All Artists!
That video was scary.
You had me going until the He Man thing happened.
Arguing with the Union is useless. This isn't some Union or animation industry thing, it's a human nature thing like I've said all along.
The same complaints being made about the animation community are the same complaints made about people in general in every aspects of our lives.
It may just be we've hit the top of human intelligence and this is the best we can expect until we start breeding for smarts and not farts.
Re: United We Brand: The iMovement For All Artists!
I was never arguing with the Union, I was revealing them. I can't speak on the behalf of anyone, but since alot of the footage was me yappin with the dinosaurs (and not some of the great points Charles made at the meeting), the reasons behind me being there had nothing to do with arguing. I was there to support Charles but was glad to expose how weak they are. Not for me, cuz I knew, but for the members...
I don't think we've hit the top of our intelligence at all. Considering I think very highly of myself and the people who are around me, I'd say most people are just not exposed...its kinda like showing people how meat is processed. Makes one want to go vegetarian real quick. I hope if anything this makes a percentage, even if its a small amount, question where their dues are going...
I know going in that these guys were gonna lose it with Charles being the guest...and once I was able to jump in, well... You dont see the part where they call me an asshole, tell me to get the f*** out etc...it was quite comical. Jerry Beck flips me off and tells me to shut up.
AND it was on my birthday. Which was a great present for me to support Charles, who was invited to be apart of the meeting which I paid $10 to view..with no pizza hahahaha...and quite frankly didn't know they were taking questions for the audience until I got there..so the engaging part was totally impromptu.
these dudes are corrupt and the panel was wrong, in my opinion. Cuz the union is not the people. The people have nothing to do with it...not at all.
I dig where Chance is coming from. I support United we Brand even if the conclusions might differ from mine. But like I said in the video, I'm my own leader.

United We Brand Update #1: Pro Beats Con! (Creative Freedom)
Howdy, friends!
Here's an update on the United We Brand iMovement. This little experiment seems to have taken off in a big way! To give you a better idea of why I started this petition (Sign Here), how far we've come in just 10 days, and all we have to be thankful for (and look forward to) as professional artists, check out the quick video above.
To clarify and elaborate just a bit, being "Professional" does not mean working for a studio, company, or even a full-time individual employer. These scenarios are all potential results of a professional mindset. To better understand what I mean by this and how to exercise professional behavior, please check out my AN thread on "Being Professional" here:
Finally, the bottom line: I started United We Brand for one simple reason - I had become discouraged with all of the complaining I was hearing from my colleagues, peers, and superiors within the entertainment industries. First off, everyone was all too eager to talk about "how bad things had gotten"...but few or none were willing to take a single action to actually address solutions. What's up with that?? To those who were, have, and whom inspired this iMovement, you know who you are and I thank (and credit) you!
Second, and this is the honest truth, guys..."things" really aren't as bad as they seem! They rarely are. For example, let's take the worst (employment) case scenario into consideration: You're unemployed, cannot find work, and cannot afford to be an "Active" member of your union anymore. Sounds pretty bleak at first, but look at where that leaves you - FREE!
You are FREE to create, distribute, and SELL your very own content anywhere you want (online or elsewhere), FREE to start up your very own crowdfunding campaign and generate a (potentially larger) income that way, FREE to get your other unemployed artist pals together and work on something you can all profit from, FREE to start your own independent business or get in touch with other like-minded people and partner up...the sky's the limit!
From here, it only gets better! The video goes into more detail about the perks of studio employment and union membership, but all of that is beside the point. The point is that these union/studio benefits are not necessary for us to thrive and succeed as creators! Sure, they help our reputations and make things easier (sometimes, and when received, we should be very grateful to get them), but when all of the bells and whistles are stripped away, what we have left is the most important thing of all - creative freedom!
Blogger, YouTube, Vimeo, PayPal, eBay, Amazon, GoFundMe, Kickstarter, IndieGoGo, MailChimp - ALL the resources we need to actually create, distribute, and sell are NOW FREE. We have finally reached a new Golden Age for artists! It's here!! NOW!!!
The only question left is...what are we going to do with it?

The one resolution, which was in my mind long before it took the form of a resolution, is the key-note of my life. It is this,always to regard as mere impertinences of fate the handicaps which were placed on my life almost at the beginning. I resolved that they should not crush or dwarf my soul, but rather be made to blossom, like Aaron's rod, with flowers-Helen Keller

Please see your gyno, I started perimenopause at about your age and by 41 my periods had stopped. I was told it (the peri) was 'in my head', just like my IBS, fibromyalgia and incontinence. Everything has resolved in the 2 years since diagnosis and my gyno told me he sees signs my periods may start again. (at 48!) Stay gluten-free and talk to your doctor.
I'm just wondering how many people have night sweats. I have them mildly every night (only since Celiac's began). they have gotten better since going gluten-free (when I get golutened, I literally soak the bed). I'm wondering if they go away eventually or if there's a supplement I should be taking that might help. I'm only 38 and my doctor assures me it's not menopause.

Volunteers must wear proper cleanup attire: T-shirt and shorts are acceptable. All volunteers must wear closed-toe shoes. No flip-flops. Volunteers wearing flip-flops will not be allowed to participate. With the South Florida heat, it is recommended that volunteers wear a hat and sunscreen, and bring their own water. It is also a good idea to bring a snack.
Minimum age to volunteer is eight (8), and an adult must accompany minors.
Safety and EquipmentKeep Broward Beautiful will provide trash bags and gloves. Staff will conduct a short safety meeting with cleanup directions prior to the cleanup on the day of the event.
ParkingVolunteers should park and meet at the Adopt-A-Street van or banner near the volunteer meeting area. Carpooling is highly recommended. Not only is it good for the environment, but parking on the beach is limited. We cannot guarantee free parking for all volunteers.

Marine DebrisMarine debris is often the result of deliberate or accidental actions by people on land or at sea. For example, uncovered trash bins, litter, debris left in streets and on beaches, and items thrown overboard can all become marine debris. Items can travel far before landing on shorelines or settling in the ocean. Marine debris can come from anywhere-it can be carried by rivers, streams, and other waterways into the ocean.

Are We Genetically Predisposed to Believe in God?
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".

Christopher Kane / Spring 2014 Ready-to-Wear
Search a show by:
It's highly amusing to watch people hiding their bafflement when they congregate backstage to ask Christopher Kane questions about where his collection came from. This time, he replied beaming: "Sex Ed. Biology textbooks. And Jean-Léon Gérôme's paintings of girls being sold in a marketplace in Roman times, with all this drapery, and hands plucking their clothes off." Hmm. What does this information add to our appreciation of his collection? Hardly anything, except it explains the reason he put in a segment of lace and organza appliqués resembling diagrams of plants and flowers with arrows describing photosynthesis and botanical reproduction. True, there's something in every Christopher Kane collection that was seeded at Taylor High, the school where he and his sister Tammy were the teenage stars of the art class. But the relevance of starting-point references shrinks to insignificance compared with the way the clothes turn out after the siblings have spent months jamming together, trying out new techniques (fuzzy, magically metallic bonded fibers in pink, blue, and silver), finessing familiar ones (like plissé chiffon, delicately shaded mint-to-white, to flutter from the sides of dresses), and generally thinking: What looks amazingly new now? What will astonish everyone this time?
In the end, Kane will hardly be able to retrieve why he started to make his first-ever midi- and ankle-grazing dresses this summer. All that mattered was his conviction that it's right—and that he explore that subject in many variations this season, including structured A-line dresses with abstract, petal-shaped portholes, edged in iridescent plastic; fluted satin dresses with asymetric wrapped tops; and stiff, semi-sheer organza and swishy, pleated, print skirts. And the looks kept on coming, ending with a drop-dead chic black halter dress with jewels in the neckline.
These past two seasons, since he got the backing of the powerful Kering group, Kane's almost been showing several mini-collections in one. This show contained something for everyone who's already addicted to Kane's trophy pieces, but also something for many other women, those more grown-up or tomboyish, who might be persuaded that there's plenty to find in his tailoring—like the two black pantsuits he showed as well as all the sweatshirts. It made for a lot to process in a singular go, and maybe there were some over-contrived moments. But all in all, the range Kane has is immensely impressive, right down to his sparkling flower jewelry, which was strung on stretchy bands that can be wrapped and clipped onto clothing at will. The best news: This vast ability to provide depth of product augurs well for the opening of the first Christopher Kane store, slated to happen in London next year.

Amid all the grommets, shiny embellishments, and overpriced It bags that have taken over as of late, it's become increasingly difficult to find quality, no-B.S. luggage that's simple, classic, and refined. But now we know exactly where to look. Legendary American accessories brand, Ghurka, has opened a flagship at the storied Sherry Netherland hotel, complete with a full helping of so-smooth leather goods, awesome travel bags, and timeless gifts for him (including a Steve McQueen-esque sidecar motorcycle, to boot). The opening of the label's new NYC digs — think Robert Falcon Scott all GQ-ed out — coincides with the first collection under the helm of Creative Director Steven La Guardia, who has re-energized Ghurka's image and product offerings without sacrificing the company's core aesthetic.
We all know traveling is grueling enough without having to fight an ugly rolling bag or wage war against an over-designed duffle that just won't hold up. So, cross one worry off your to-do list: Shoddy construction and useless bells and whistles are nowhere to be found at this shop. Ghurka's tough-as-nails carryalls can withstand tons of punishment (and manage to look even better with age). Stay calm, and carry on…literally.
Click through for pics of your new luggage go-tos (and Ghurka's cute CD), plus tips on traveling in top form.

Recipe by MOM71
"This is a superb, easy dessert made with all-fresh blueberries during the peak of their season. You're gonna love it! At serving time, garnish with whipped topping."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

1 cup
white sugar
2 tablespoons
1 cup
4 tablespoons
lemon flavored Jell-O® mix
4 cups
fresh blueberries
1 (9 inch)
prepared graham cracker crust
This has become a favorite in our house! I have decreased the lemon jello to 3 Tablespoons and make it in a "no-roll" crust. It is great!
I did not care for the taste or the texture.
33 Ratings
This passed the test - my husband thought it was excellent and blueberries are his favorite. One correction: check the amount of lemon gelatin called for on the printed recipe (differs greatly from correct amount)
My mom loved this pie. It wasn't too tangy, and it chilled very well, not too hard, but not runny either. I cut back on the blueberries or it wouldn't have fit in the pie shell. My mom called and got the recipe from me to make it again, so I would recommend this only if you like lemon and have fresh blueberries on hand. I don't really like lemon, so my 5 star rating is based on my mom's opinion of this pie (I made it for her).
This is everyone's new favorite summer pie! People actually ask me to make this for their birthday present! I like to use a homemade pre-baked pie crust and top with fresh whipped cream and lemon slices (or zest). I have also used individual sized tart crusts for potlucks, and they were a hit!
This a fabulously easy and great-tasting way to enjoy fresh blueberries when they're in season. Just be sure you buy the biggest prepared graham cracker crust you can find. (I bought a 9" one, and had to heap up the filling a bit.) The lemon flavored gelatin really seems to bring out the taste of the blueberries. Two pints of dry blueberries measures out to be 4 cups of berries, as called for in the recipe. Thank you, Mom71, for this outstanding pie recipe.
This pie is wonderful! When I tasted the glaze before I put it on the berries, I almost didn't make it. It was very candy like in flavor and I was sure it would be awful...but I truste the many reviews and made it. I put mine in a prepared cooki crust. We love it! Will make it over and over.
GREAT RECIPE! My husband absolutely loves this pie. It's now his favorite even over his mother's custard pie which has been his favorite for years. Just the right mixture of ingredients (graham, blueberries and cool whip!) for a great tasting and very easy blueberry dessert! Rather than garnish with whip cream when serving, I just put a thick layer of it right on top of the pie. YUM!

text: I think we could use a guy like this. I have watched him come up through Bakersfield Junior College and U of Nevada (tearing my Bulldogs a new one), and he has beasted at both levels. Very good routes, hands, body control, ball skills, and hard to tackle. Then I was surprised at his 40 times (4.47 at combine, 4.44 at pro day) because he never struck me as a speed guy or deep threat, just your classic X receiver. He plays like a pro. I think he could replace Marlon Moore immediately because he has almost the same speed as Moore, but is more physical and much more skilled. I think in a few years, he will be a Greg Jennings type of guy. I could really see Philbin going for a guy like this. He would be a good value in the 2nd round, and a steal in the 3rd IMO.

What's for Dinner - Part #103 [old]
Time to start a new thread. What's going on the table for dinner?
As for me, I want pizza, I think. I've got some chicken, roasted red peppers, fresh mozzarella and basil, along with some freshly roasted tomatoes I'll whir up in the FP for a sauce. Won't be homemade *or* store-bought dough for the crust - to make it easy, I'll use a couple of mini packaged crusts I bought to try. We'll see. But at least it's dinner and tomorrow's lunch.
I just realized that the boy comes home late tonight, but he'll likely be full from dinner at his parents. Only sometimes he isn't full. Sometimes he comes in a midnight needing to be fed. I thought I'd make another batch of spicy ramen soup, with onions, garlic, ginger, carrots, and peppers. Instead of doing an egg drop style, I thought I would just add slices of soft boiled egg to each bowl. I'm out of green onions, mainly because I forgot to buy them in the first place.
I wanted to put a small amount of miso in the soup, but am unsure if I was supposed to keep it after the power outage. It was in the freezer, and I suspect it had mostly defrosted before power was restored. I suspect it needs to be tossed. Let's go see how unhelpful google can be.
re: onceadaylily
Okay, the salt is supposedly preservative enough to ensure that the miso paste will be okay, despite the fact that it is made from soybeans. I still don't like the whole freezing and thawing and freezing again, but I think I'm going to chance it. I'll tuck a small amount into a tea-ball and swirl it in.
And does whoever programmed firefox's spell-check just not into food at all?
re: onceadaylily
Does miso ever really go bad?
I usually keep it around for years. And then a little longer. I understand it thawed, but still, all that salt and it's fermented already, no?
Maybe someone knows better than me, but I'd totally keep it.
re: rabaja
Another one on the keep it train...
re: inaplasticcup
Keep it, oadl. I know you to have drained whey off suspect cheese, and this is a much lesser offense. There's not much in it to go that wrong. I say keep it, use it, and report back. :)
re: mamachef
I'm keeping it, but never made the noodles last night. He came home three hours early last night, and we wound up eating egg sandwiches. I'll likely make the dish in the next few nights though.
We kept it simple last night, post-earthquake and me with a cold. Yummy sandwiches on challah rolls with bbq chicken, bacon, avocado and tomatoes. Not sure about tonight ... I'm thinking soup.
Pasta with an heirloom tomato sauce with lots of herbs. As a first course, eggplant (a beautiful firm, glossy dark purple one from yesterday's Farmers' Market) dipped in flour/cornstarch and then eggs beaten with Romano and then fried until crunchy and served immediately, with just a sprinkle of salt.
re: escondido123
Second the pasta with "throw in the farmers market" sauce...No fancy eggplant though. That would be a nice treatment for a sliver of scallopine...
re: escondido123
Oh that sounds loverly, escondido! I've been getting heirlooms from neighbors' and friends' gardens, and they're such a treat!
re: iL Divo
What all goes into your chimichurri, ID?
re: inaplasticcup
I forgot to get parsley at the market when I went there for all else needed for my dinner.
Not having enough parsley in the yard, I headed out to the garden to see how much of what I did have.
Here's what I picked. Garlic, onions,shallots, scallions, oregano, thyme, basil, thai basil, sage.
Salt and pepper, red pepper flakes, olive oil and red wine vinegar and a few drops of Myer lemon juice from mom's yard. It was killer albeit not really traditional chimichurri but you got go with what ya got and it was delicious. The bread and steak dipped it in really tasty.
re: iL Divo
Sounds super tasty, and now you've got me craving a super beefy tasting medium rare skirt steak with chimichurri. I think that might be one of our weekend meals. Thanks, ID!
Today my son and I took a jaunt out to our favorite place -- the North Fork of Long Island, and we bought the makings for a dinner we frequently enjoy when we rent a place out there. We went to our favorite meat market and bought a 2" thick sirloin to be grilled, sliced and served over a lemony arugula salad. The arugula from the farm stands is a whole 'nother animal than the hydroponic stuff you usually get in most markets. This turns the water green when you wash it, and it is very spicy. Along with fruit, I also bought some white corn from Wickhams Fruit Farm, which is the oldest continuously farmed land in the US. Their peaches, plums and apples also made it into my basket. There are none better than their white peaches. I would be tempted to do something with the peaches for dessert had I not also picked up a pie from Briermere's that I call "fruit fantasy." I have replicated it fairly successfully in the past, but I really want to try the original again. It's basically a cream pie where the cream is a combo of cream cheese and whipped cream. The cream is a vehicle for mounds of fresh peaches piled on top with a circle of blueberries in the middle. It's a thing of beauty.
re: roxlet
That entire post is a thing of beauty, roxlet. Ahm Nom Nom Nom! And that pie/tart/fantasy? It sounds outrageous; not too sweet a filling because the fruit is the star. Like like like many times. What are you doing with the corn, grilling it with the steak?
re: mamachef
No, we just boiled the corn, and it was so delicious and so tender. We buy corn at our farmer's market, but there is just something different, special and wonderful about the corn from Wickham's. It doesn't have that artificial sweetness that you find in so many genetically modified corn. This is just pure and fresh corn flavor.
re: roxlet
The North Fork is a beautiful place. My father lived in Greenport for the last few years, til he passed away this March. I spent some time on the beaches and visiting small markets and stuff while I was there taking care of him. It's a gorgeous place, filled with lots of tranquility and peace.
As for what's for dinner, I had an everything bagel, untoasted. The darling had a taco made with refried beans and tomatoes from the garden.
re: marietinn
so sorry about your dad, marietinn, i know it's very hard. glad you had that time together, in such a lovely space.
and i love that you call your darling "the darling"!
re: mariacarmen
Thanks, Maria. My dad was only 52 and it was quite sudden, but I'm glad he lived out the remainder of his days someplace so lovely.
The darling is just that, so the title is well deserved. Tonight we just had boca chik'n nuggets and tator tots for dinner, although I'm looking to cut a cantaloupe we got out of the garden this morning before the storm rolled in.
re: marietinn
Sorry to hear about your Dad, and 52 is way, way too young. I'm glad he -- and you -- could enjoy the North Fork. It's God's acres.
re: roxlet
roxlet...That pie sounds absolutely glorious as does your whole shopping trip (and dinner). What apples are out already? I must get some this weekend,
Corn? Real corn? That would be something to have. We had corn picked yesterday morning (bicolor) last night and it was very good, but I really miss the older varieties' taste. Golden Bantam...
The corn was good with panfried pork chops, a sharp coleslaw, and halved local mini plum tomatoes. No bells and whistles (or fairy dust), just good eating.
re: roxlet
That sounds wonderful--every bit of it! Inspired by you and Deb of smitten kitchen--and all your reports of the beautiful produce, I have proposed to my husband that we try to rent a place in NF next summer.
I make a similar pie to showcase the very same fruits, but my base is cream cheese and sour cream, and I generally make a graham cracker crumb crust, but I've also used a regular pate brisee. You've made me want one, but, alas, peaches and berries are over in these parts.
re: roxlet
Here's a photo of the "Fruit Fantasy"
re: roxlet
THAT IS STUNNING! is that the one you bought? or made? wow....
re: mariacarmen
Sadly, I bought it, but now I have a better idea for when I next try to make it. Last time I tried, I didn't have enough fruit, and with this pie, there is a larger proportion of fruit to cream.
re: roxlet
Gorgeous, roxlet!
re: roxlet
Glorious! Are the peaches coated with anything?
re: buttertart
It seems that they are because I see a gel-like substance around the crust, but you really aren't aware of anything when you're eating the pie. It's actually quite perplexing (I have to do my duty and eat some more to try to figure this out, lol). But since the peaches haven't browned at all, there must be something, but for the life of me, I can't figure out what it is.
re: roxlet
Maybe that Dr. Oetker fruit tart glaze or its professional equivalent?
re: buttertart
Could be. It was so light as to be undetectable on the fruit.

What: Gap's online boutique Piperlime unveils its new pop-up shop in trendy (also known as spendy) Soho.
What They Say: Piperlime's pop-up shop will be located at 93 Mercer Street. The shop will only be open for about 25 days and will carry a variety of brands that include Marc Jacobs, Rebecca Taylor, and 7 For All Mankind. The store will be open from 11 am-8pm until October 3rd. There will also be a special kickoff party on Fashion's Night Out with a guest appearance by Rachel Zoe.
What We Say: Since we are already fans of the online site, we were giddy with excitement to see what the shop had to offer. Just a few blocks from the new Chanel store and diagonally across the street from American Apparel we spotted the green Piperlime sign and charged right through the doors to get our personal preview and we were not disappointed. First off, any fashion lover would appreciate how they divided each section of the store by trend. There was Military Inspired, Vintage Embellishments, and English Prep, we think this makes it much easier for you to shop. They even had a special Rachel Zoe pick section just for those shoppers who need the approval of the reality TV star.
We also liked that they had a large denim bar in the middle of the store, we all know how hard it is to find great jeans and it looks like they have you covered on options. There was a nice selection of fun flirty dresses, sequin tops, and military style jackets.We fell inlove with the selection of shoes and handbags. They carried everything from a pair of Jessica Simpson animal print booties to a Linea Pelle studded leather satchel. The pop-up shop seems like a perfect fit for the Soho area due to some pricey basics, like t-shirts priced at $80. However, the shop does offer a number of wallet friendly items under $100 like a cute pair of Michael Antonio suede studded booties for under $80 and some amazing jewelry under $50.

3 cups
all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon
1 teaspoon
baking soda
1 teaspoon
baking powder
3 teaspoons
ground cinnamon
1 cup
vegetable oil
2 1/4 cups
white sugar
3 teaspoons
vanilla extract
2 cups
grated zucchini
1 cup
chopped walnuts
This is my MASTER zucchini recipe. No need to look further. I've tried 3 recipes from this site, and this one is the BEST. I do half and half oil/applesauce and subsititute and reduce to 2 cups of sugar - plenty sweet! 1 cup brown sugar for the white. The brown sugar adds so much more richness and depth of flavor than just using all white sugar. I did start using at least 3 cups zucchini. It melts and disappears into the bread and all you end up tasting is the cinnamon. So 3-4 cups is best, with true zucchini flavor. It won't be green, trust me. No nuts needed or draining/squeezing out the zucchini either. The water adds to the moistness of the bread. 55 min. cook time for me. I did 60 min. the first time and it wasn't as moist. I live in the city, so I don't have a garden, but since zucchini is available year round, you can make this anytime of the year. Super quick and easy to make and my 2 and 5 yr. old inhale this stuff. Don't tell them about the veggies and they won't know it's there!!
I had a large zucchini so I doubled the recipe. I used 1 1/2 C oil and 3 1/2 C sugar. I though the result was good, but not fantastic. Next time, I will try the chocolate zucchini bread versions.

Very moist and good. I added a crumb topping as another reviewer suggested and that was fabulous! By trial and error, I discovered that the topping works best when added 15 minutes into the baking time. That way, the topping stays on top rather than sinking down into the batter as the bread bakes. I made 5 mini-loaves and baked a total of 40 minutes. (Crumb Topping: 1/2 c. regular oats, 1/2 c. brown sugar, 1/4 c. flour, 1/4 t. cinnamon, 1/4 c. butter.)
Just a note to reviewers Draining zucchini . DON'T You are taking out the moisture the recipe requires. I fairly firmly pack shredded zucchini then I do not fold in I use a beater on medium speed and the bread is moist and good
excellant recipe ! I replaced 1 cup of the plain flour with whole wheat flour , used unsweetened applesauce in place of the oil, reduced the sugar by 1/2 a cup and used ener-g egg replacer for a much healthier ,vegan version . The bread came out beautiful , moist and tasty :)
This is a great recipe. I will keep this recipe in my file box in the kitchen for many future uses. This is the kind of recipe that I would make copies of to share with friends. Really delicious. As always I prepare the recipes exactly as they are submitted. I believe this is the only fair way to offer a review. If a cook adds or subtracts from the original then they are not preparing the recipe as written and really should not base there opinion on the end result. I usually just ignore the reviews that say "I added this or added that"! I am a big supporter of preparing the dish as written and then reviewing that result. I don't dabble with the recipe until after I have prepared it properly as submitted. This is one of the few recipes that I would give 5 stars to.
Great way to use up some of the zucchini in our garden. I'm a mother of three and I'm always looking for ways to sneak in vegetables and fruit whenever I can. I also make substitutions to ingredients to make the recipe a bit healthier without compromising the taste. For this recipe I did the following substitutions: 1) for the flour I used half white (1 1/2 C) and half whole wheat (1 1/2 C). 2) I cut the salt in half (1/2 t) 3) Instead of 3 eggs, I used 2 egg whites and 2 mashed bananas 4) I used half the oil (1/2 C) and added 1/2 C of plain applesauce 5) I decreased the sugar to 1 C. I scooped the batter into a muffin pan and convection baked it for 11 minutes. The muffins were wonderful and the whole family gobbled them up.
This is the best base for a zucchini bread I've ever had. I changed it some so my daughter would eat it. I left out the cinnamon and added milk choc. chips. To make it more healthy, I added 1/2 cup oil and 1/2 applesauce. I took this to a church dinner and one little girl ate 5 pieces and another ate 6.

Our baseball team came to Arizona for the Cal Ripken Regionals and was lucky to find the Staybridge Suites.
From the start of our group reservation/block request, they were so accommodating and friendly to assist us in making such a large group reservation on extenuating circumstances.
The sales manager, was more than helpful and patient in helping us every step of the way.
The location of this property was perfect! Just across from Cabela's, across from the Westgate Entertainment District and across from Tanger Outlets, many stores and restaurants to suit anyone's needs!
The area was so close to everything we needed to access . . . close to the Surprise Stadium where we played at, nearby batting cages, Wal-Marts, the airport, the Chase Stadium . . . it was just a clean, great, safe location!
One perk besides having kitchens in every room was that the laundry was free! No more coins needed!
Will recommend this property to all family and friends!
Room, atmosphere, service, and employees were great.

We had a rush trip to the Phoenix area. We did not require much for an overnight trip. We felt welcomed, comfortable, and catered to. The room had way more than we needed and felt like a place for an extended stay. All of the staff was helpful and answered any questions we had and were friendly enough to engage in small conversations about the area. We fully enjoyed our stay. Thank You.
Great accommodations and price
13 July 2015
The Staybridge Glendale was a great place to stay during our week in Phoenix. We didn't use the social/evening food provided, but the breakfast was excellent both in quality and variety.
The suite configuration of the room was very accommodating and functional. It was clean and welcoming. The kitchen in the suite was excellent and we used it extensively.
The beds were some of the more comfortable that we have experienced in out travels. The pool was also very nice.
I would definitely recommend this Staybridge to anyone who wanted a good value and comfortable place to stay.

Sleep deprivation is more harmful that you might realize. Understand the possible consequences of sleep deprivation and what you can do about it.
Sleep deprivation occurs when you don't get enough sleep to feel alert and well rested. While the amount of sleep a person needs varies a little, most adults need about seven to eight hours of sleep every night.
Sleep deprivation can occur if you don't get enough total hours of sleep or as a result of poor quality sleep. Common causes of sleep deprivation include work hours, medical conditions, stress and personal obligations, such as caring for a baby or a sick loved one.
Sleep deprivation causes excessive daytime sleepiness. The consequences of sleep deprivation can include:
A recent study also reported that men who slept less than six hours a night had a higher overall risk of premature death than men who slept six hours or more a night.
The best way to overcome the fatigue caused by sleep deprivation is to meet your sleep needs — by either increasing the amount of time you sleep or improving your sleep quality. If possible, sleep in until you wake up on your own feeling alert for several days in a row. Strategic short naps — less than 30 minutes — also can help. If you know you're about to experience sleep loss, getting extra sleep beforehand might reduce the impact on your alertness and performance.
If sleeping in or napping isn't possible, physical activity, caffeine, bright light exposure or prescription medications might temporarily help you deal with sleep deprivation. Keep in mind, however, that there's no substitute for getting enough quality sleep.

'The Postcard Age' Debuts at Boston's Museum of Fine Arts
"Postcards like these are tiny slices of time," reads the text at the start of "The Postcard Age: Selections from the Leonard A. Lauder Collection,", an exhibit of 700 postcards drawn from an archive assembled by Estée Lauder chairman emeritus and former CEO Leonard A. Lauder over the course of his lifetime.
"In the decades around 1900, postcards were Twitter, e-mail, Flickr, and Facebook, all wrapped into one," the Museum's press release on the exhibit notes. "A postcard craze swept the world, as billions of cards were bought and mailed, or just pasted into albums. Many famous artists turned to the new medium, but one of the great pleasures of postcards is how some of the most beautiful and interesting cards were made by artists whose names we barely know.
"This unprecedented exhibition traces how big historical and cultural themes of the modern age -- enthralling, exciting, and sometimes disturbing -- played out on the postcard's tiny canvas."
Mr. Lauder was present at the recent media event to introduce the exhibit.along with a number of individuals from the MFA staff. Lauder praised the MFA staff for the work they had done to sort through 100,000 postcards, select and group 700 individual examples, and group them in a way that allowed each set to "make one statement" and yet still "talk to each other."
"Once A Collector, Always A Collector."
Lauder was born in 1933 and grew up during the Great Depression. From early in his boyhood, he had a fascination with photojournalism and its power to take the far-distant and make it immediate, which, coupled with a love of art, defined his tastes. (Lauder is also a collector of paintings, especially canvases by cubist masters.)
"The only way to get photographs of what was really happening was through the itinerant postcard photographer, who went around photographing what was going on," Lauder recalled of those years in the early and mid 20th Century.
The postcards Lauder collected also allowed him to feed his loves of architecture and history. To see them now on display in a museum the caliber of Boston's MFA seems entirely fitting.
"These wonderful images that I've spend years trying to collect and put together, gathered in this way, look so beautiful," Lauder exclaimed.
Lauder exhorted the press not to make the story about him, but rather to focus on the postcards the museum's staff have grouped into sparkling little constellations.
Some of the cards are virgin; others have been written on, stamped, and mailed. Lauder professed an especial fondness for the cards that have been mailed, saying that the messages they convey offer intimate glimpses into the lives of the people who wrote them. Among his favorites is a postcard send by a young soldier fighting in World War I.
Lauder told EDGE that he continues to collect post cards even now. "Even though I am slowing down a bit, I can't resist. Once you are a collector, you are always a collector."
"By the way, I don't buy to possess," Lauder added. "I only buy something to add to what I think is already a very complete collection."
But "complete" is a relative term. Lauder went on to say, "The reason I love postcards is it's an open-ended challenge. If I had another thirty years, I would still keep on going."
Slices of Time and Life
Entering the Lois B. and Michael K. Torf Gallery, the exhibit's visitor begins a journey into the Postcard Craze, an itinerary that begins with Paris, circa 1900. The postcards here record street scenes, cafe patrons in formal, expectant poses.
One lot, titled "Store Fronts," focuses on the Paris retail scene: A wine shop, a flower shop, a hair salon, a "butter and egg" shop... A "blanchisserie?" (This turns out to be a laundry service, not, as one might have surmised, a negligee shop.)
Proprietors and employees post in front, looking a little stuffy but ready to serve. Clearly, the infancy of the photographic medium -- a record of light as historic document -- is, at this stage, at one with infancy of the postcard format.
The cards are grouped by theme. "Getting Around" collects images of horse drawn (and horseless) conveyances; "Butchers" -- you guessed it -- brings together a number of images (somewhat rarefied, one would imagine) of butchers' shops.
"The Market: Les Halles" presents vendors posing with their wares -- by the basket, box, and burlap bag full. "Streets and Boulevards" is packed with early views of motorized traffic, horses, pedestrians -- and a subway entrance. Oh, the wonders of this modern age!
"At Work" purports to record the daily labors of street sweepers, brewery workers, bakers... except, no one is really working. Everybody is standing to attention for the camera.

I have a millermatic 175 mig . I would like to try welding aluminum with this machine . I am thinking about purchasing a miller aluminum conversion kit [liner , drive wheels etc. ]. That would be cheaper than buying the spool gun . I have been advised that the conversion kit does not work very well . Can anyone clue me in on this ?

welding aluminum
I don't think that Miller makes a conversion for the MM175 to do aluminum, I think Lincoln is the only one that does that. You can get a 4" roll of .030 4043 and try it as is, keep the whip as stright as possible, the wire and spool tension should be only enough to feed the wire. You will be using 100% argon as gas and can run it about 25CFH to start with, and some like to run a .035 tip (I never did but they say it helps). Try about 1/2" stickout and about 1/4" from the work peice and be sure to push the weld. With some practice you can do it, but it can be frustrating.Regards, George

Welding aluminum
I tried welding with a lincoln SP135 plus with the aluminum liner & roller kit and had nothing but problems. I could'nt get the wire to stop bird nesting. My suggestion to you is dont waste your money.
had a buddy that wanted me to show him how to weld alum. he had a small lincoln mig. i think we wasted a 1 lb roll trying to get it set he only had a 10ft whip and it keep bird nesting at the feed rollers. never had mush luck like sundown said keep the whip as stright as possible. good luckmiller bobcat 250

Definitely hold off till you can afford the spoolgun. Tried this once & almost created a drinking problem. In the ideal situation if you could hold gun & cable in a straight line it might not be bad, but that doesn't usually happen in the real world & as soon as you move a little out of line , big birdnest.
4043 is soft and doesn't feed as nice as 5356. I haven't had any experience running AL wire through push feeders but I was told 5356 works better for that application. Only have push-pull and spool gun experience.Jonny

yep defenetly go with the 5356 wire insted of the 4XXX wire. and then still try to keep the gun as strait as possible., miller dose have a aluninum liner for it i can dig up the part #'s if you want. i dont know off hand if i have the book in here or out at the shop. i have herd of some people haveing acceptable results with the 175. not a good long term solution but if you get lots of aluminum work its best to invest in a better option like the MM210 and spool gun. if you are going to have the work it will be werth the investment. for the rare ocational thig the 175 should be able to get the job done on thin stuff like 1/8"thanks for the help
hope i helped
feel free to shoot me an e-mail direct i have time to chat. email@example.com
summer is here, plant a tree. if you don't have space or time to plant one sponsor some one else to plant one for you. a tree is an investment in our planet, help it out.

i've never wire welded aluminum, but my dad used to and he hated it. of course he was on top of a utility pole under an asbestos tarp, who would blame him?
anyway, i asked him about the spool gun once and he said the wire is so soft that the spool gun is the only way, besides tig, because it has such a shorter distance to travel.

Props to Scott Vaughn for a sweet round one that got a mention on the front page of the PDGA website. Lets hope he can hold off the rest of us Intermediate baggers as we try to make up for crappy first rounds.
Also Tokio did pretty well on his course(leader), but got no mention, cause he is REALLY bagging in the lower pool of Intermediates.
If you haven't ever been to Bowling Green, the courses are nice up here, and I see what people are talking about the WIND. We got rain and craploads of casual water too this weekend.
Special Note** Don't make the trip if you want a good payout. This year they added a basket to First prize in each division, but after that, 2nd place out of 180 people is less than $100 and from what I hear, they are giving out pre-determined merch packages?**

The Kentucky Derby: since 1875 it has been revered as one of the world's most exciting sporting events. However, in addition to the race itself, there is one thing that makes the Kentucky Derby even more exciting (in our eyes and the eyes of spectators, we're sure). No, we're not just talking about the betting, Derby parties and day-drinking (although we do fancy ourselves a tasty mint julep): the Kentucky Derby is most definitely a hatter's fashion event, and a fun one at that.
With just a few days before the big race, we've created the Kentucky Derby Style Guide to help hatters get dressed, look sharp, and top it all off with a statement-making straw hat from the Goorin Bros. Derby Collection. You know what they say: come for the horses, stay for the hats. Here's how to style your Derby hat with good-looking, modern twists that add the touch of glamour required for the event.

No Subtitles Necessary: Laszlo & Vilmos
This documentary follows the lives of renowned cinematographers Laszlo Kovacs and Vilmos Zsigmond, from escaping the 1956 Soviet invasion of Hungary to present day. As film students in Hungary, they shot footage of the Russian invasion of Budapest and subsequently volunteered to smuggle it out of the country. Barely escaping with their lives, they fled to America and settled in Hollywood, eventually saving enough money to buy their own 16mm camera to begin shooting movies.

Information For:
School of Digital Sciences
Kent State University
236 Math & Computer Science Bldg
Kent, OH 44242-0001
What is Digital Sciences?
Kent State University's School of Digital Sciences is a cutting-edge new interdisciplinary school designed to train tomorrow's digital leaders. As an interdisciplinary school, the School of Digital Sciences brings together faculty from across the university to teach courses for the school, and our students have a unique opportunity to take selected classes from other programs as part of their major.
The school offers Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degrees in Digital Sciences, an undergraduate Minor, a Master of Digital Sciences degree, and a post-Baccalaureate (graduate) certificate in Enterprise Architecture.
The Bachelor of Science and Bachelor of Arts degrees in Digital Sciences help students acquire a broad understanding of digital technologies (e.g., web development, design processes, programming), gain cutting-edge technical skills (e.g., database systems, information management, digital systems security), and learn how to make technology easier to use (eg. society and culture, information ethics, human-computer interaction). These students then study requirements engineering and project management to learn how to work on a diverse project team, and put those skills into practice on a group capstone project in conjunction with students from another major.
The Master of Digital Sciences degree is a professional Master's degree that allows students from a wide range of backgrounds to augment their skill sets. Students have the opportunity to gain an introduction to several areas outside their undergraduate field, and then have an opportunity to specialize in a specific area of interest. Electives provide opportunities for customization, and the degree ends with either an individual capstone project or thesis.

Action/Adventure, Horror, Comedy
"Postal" follows two days in the life of the Postal Dude, in the regrettably named town of Paradise. Just when he thinks he has hit rock bottom, things get worse. Sharing a trailer with his ever-expanding wife, Bitch, Dude is in a bad way. After a humiliating job interview and a nearly lethal trip to the welfare office, Dude finds himself on the doorstep of his Uncle Dave. Despite being the successful leader of the town cult, Dave is also finding himself in financial difficulties. Together, Dude and Dave hatch a plan to steal some valuable merchandise. Unfortunately for them, the much better organized and much better equipped Taliban has converged on Paradise for more sinister reasons. Things spiral out of control when Osama Bin Laden is forced to call in his friend George W Bush as back up. Few are left standing by the time Dude turns his back on Paradise. Dude quickly learns how liberating it can be when there is nothing left to lose. He learns never to trust a messiah, especially when that messiah has written his own bible. He learns that you can find love in the most unlikely places, even when the object of your affections is holding a gun to your head. Most importantly, he learns that there is nothing that a well timed nuclear explosion can't solve.

On-Campus Housing Selection
Room Selection Overview
The Room Selection is held in late March / early April each year. Rooms are selected by class cohort-- rising seniors, rising juniors and rising sophomores. Selection times are determined and assigned for each eligible participant within a cohort based on a random number assignment. A class cohort is based on the year a student enrolled at Saint John's. Times are assigned by computer. Participants with a lower number will get an earlier selection time within their cohort.
Important policy change to participate in campus housing at CSB/SJU:
To be eligible for the room selection process, returning students are required to be registered for the next term in order to participate in the on campus room selection process. All students who wish to select on campus housing must be registered at least 24 hours in advance of the date on which the room selection process they will participate in takes place.
For additional information, visit the full housing policy change (updated 1.24.14).
For more detailed Room Selection information and forms, current students can visit our Intranet Website.

Freshman Housing Options
New students coming to SJU as freshmen will be living in either St. Thomas Aquinas "Tommy" or St. Mary "Mary" residence halls. Non-traditional freshmen and transfer students may have the option of living in upper-class housing. If you are unsure of which situation fits you, please contact the Residential Life and Housing Office.

They could live in Bernard Hall, Benet Hall, Greg House, or Joe Hall but could not live in Patrick, Boniface, and Tommy Halls, or any campus apartment because of the cohort criteria for each area.

The Senior Majority apartment selection is limited to Maur House, New Flynntown, Placid House and Vincent Court apartment areas.
Apartment Eligibility
Apartment eligibility is based on the following criteria:
- All members of the Junior or Senior cohort are eligible to live campus apartments
- Sophomores are not allowed to live in most campus apartments with the exception of Virgil Michel House
- First-year students are not allowed to live in campus apartments
Senior Majority
New Flynntown Apartment, Placid House, Maur House, and Vincent Court apartments are designated "Senior Majority". That means more than half of the occupants of the apartment must be part of the Senior cohort. For example, in a 6-person apartment, at least 4 of the tenants must be from the Senior cohort. All 6 residents can be Seniors, but the maximum number of Juniors in a 6-person apartment is 2. This requirement will not be waived except when general campus occupancy needs warrant a change.
Single Rooms
Due to limited resources, Saint John's only has limited number of single rooms available to students.
- Benet Hall - 33 singles
- Frank House - 27 singles
- Greg House - 7 singles
- Joe Hall - 24 singles
These rooms will be available for choosing during the general selection nights.
Residential Life and Housing maintains a singles waiting list. If you are interested in a single room, please sign up on the waiting list. If any singles open up after room selection or during the academic year, they are offered to the students on the waiting list.
