Like the line he founded and designs, Assembly New York, Greg Armas has always been a lil' quirky and slickly well-tailored. So, it comes as no surprise that his downtown studio space keeps to this simple-yet-captivating personality and aesthetic. While we've adored the brand since 2008 when Armas founded a brick-and-mortar store and design incubator (he still rubs elbows with R29 faves like Atelier Nunu and Grey Ant), we fell in love again with the label's latest crop of totally-wearable threads when Armas showed at Made Fashion Week just a few weeks ago, and we obviously wanted — and were granted — a grand tour to catch some more eye candy.
On tap in the minimalist-eccentric, LES space? Armas' laid-back work ensembles and his current mood-board, plus his favorite date spots, lunch order, and pre-NYFW traditions (hint: Stress!).
Click through for our one-on-one tour of Assembly's awesome downtown space!

The Thing (2011)
The Thing Synopsis
Antarctica: an extraordinary continent of awesome beauty. It is also home to an isolated outpost where a discovery full of scientific possibility becomes a mission of survival when an alien is unearthed by a crew of international scientists. The shape-shifting creature, accidentally unleashed at this marooned colony, has the ability to turn itself into a perfect replica of any living being. It can look just like you or me, but inside, it remains inhuman. In the thriller The Thing, paranoia spreads like an epidemic among a group of researchers as they're infected, one by one, by a mystery from another planet.
Paleontologist Kate Lloyd (Mary Elizabeth Winstead) has traveled to the desolate region for the expedition of her lifetime. Joining a Norwegian scientific team that has stumbled across an extraterrestrial ship buried in the ice, she discovers an organism that seems to have died in the crash eons ago. But it is about to wake up.
When a simple experiment frees the alien from its frozen prison, Kate must join the crew's pilot, Carter (Joel Edgerton), to keep it from killing them off one at a time. And in this vast, intense land, a parasite that can mimic anything it touches will pit human against human as it tries to survive and flourish.
The Thing serves as a prelude to John Carpenter's classic 1982 film of the same name.

Recipe by SADDIECAT
"I had been looking for a Tamale recipe for years. One day I went to the international market and stood in the Mexican aisle till a woman with a full cart came by. I just asked her if she knew how to make Tamales. This is her recipe with a few additions from me. The pork can be substituted with either chicken or beef. This is great served with refried beans and a salad."
Hmm. None of these ingredients are on sale today.

Tamale Filling:
1 1/4 pounds
pork loin
1 large
onion, halved
1 clove
dried California chile pods
2 cups
1 1/2 teaspoons
Tamale Dough:
2 cups
masa harina
1 (10.5 ounce) can
beef broth
1 teaspoon
baking powder
1/2 teaspoon
2/3 cup
1 (8 ounce) package
dried corn husks
1 cup
sour cream
A few things for the beginner: it's better to boil the peppers(any kind will do) and all the flavorings for 30ish minutes, and then cook the meat in that broth. Also, the water should cover the meat in the pan and it needs to be cooked until it is crumbly to the touch--this makes it easier and faster to shred by hand and eliminates any further meat preparation. Depending on the meat I use my cook time varies between 4 hours to overnight. I keep my corn husks in hot/boiling water for at least an hour--they need to be very soft. Two VIP things to note: masa is very bland, there is no substitute for lard! I use the leftover meat juice instead of broth for my masa, and still add lots of other spices. When you are making tamales the masa will dry out; just add a little meat juice to keep the consistency. It should spread like creamy peanut butter. The corn husks should only measure 4-5 inches across; larger ones can be torn to size. Place the meat filling along the edge and roll like a cigar. Also when steaming them, they need to be as close to standing upright as possible. Good reference recipe, thanks!
This recipe doesn't say what to do with the onion that cooked with the meat, or the cooking liquid. Do you discard both? When you strain the chile mixture after blending, what part are you throwing away? Why use a can of beef broth when you could use the cooking liquid? I have never made tamales before and I found the recipe instructions confusing.

If you are going to take the time to make tamales, be sure to double or triple the recipe, the Tamales freeze well. You also want them to turn out perfectly. This is a good recipe but the instructions leave out a few important steps: (1.) One of the biggest mistakes is not mixing the masa dough long enough; this causes the tamales to fall apart. Mix the masa dough, with an ELECTRIC MIXER, until a small amount (1 tsp) floats in a cup of water. (2.) Position your corn husks with wide end toward you. Spread a thin layer of masa dough, completely covering the bottom 2/3 of the corn husks and place filling in a line down the center of the dough. (3.) You won't have to secure your Tamales with a toothpick or strip of corn husk, if folded properly. When folding, fold in one long side about 1/3 over dough and filling, fold in the other long side, overlapping the first (like folding a business letter). Fold down the top 1/3 and place in steamer standing upright, with the folded end down and open end up. Don't over pack the pan, just tightly enough to keep Tamales in an upright position. If you don't have a Tamale steamer you can use a deep pot with cover. Place a steamer basket in the bottom and stand your Tamales (open end up) in the basket, add water only to the bottom of the basket (you don't want the Tamales sitting in water) cover, and steam. Check the water level during cooking, to make sure the pot doesn't run dry.
The directions for preparing the Masa are right on. It's a lot easier than you would expect. To simplify the meat preparation I simply used boiled chicken with monterey jack or queso fresco cheese. The chile preparation is also easy. I added a bay leaf and oregano (remove the bay leaf and add one teaspoon of lemon juice before you blend it). Don't expect a great flavor. The chile is meant to be concentrated so it will taste horrible (very woody and grainy). But when it steams with the masa and meat the end product is wonderful. Placing the masa in the husks is a challenge, be patient. Although, I didn't want to, I had to use extra husk strips to tie the tamales. They kept seeping out in the steamer and would fall apart when I attempted to move them. The last thing you want is wet masa on the bottom of your steamer. I also found the steaming to take ALOT longer. In my case (I've made it 3 times) the steaming took between 2.5-3 hours. I guess it depends on the type of steamer you use. It helps to cover the bottom, sides, and eventually top (once the tamales are in) with extra corn husks. This keeps the tamales dry as you add extra water during the steaming process. It also helps with clean up later. I also put a coin at the bottom of the steamer (when the coin stops clanking, you know that your near the end of water and need to refill it).
Good recipe! I used canola oil rather than lard and instead of using a can of beef broth, I used broth from cooking the pork roast. I also used hot chili peppers to spice it up a little. They turned out great!
Tamales are a Christmas tradition here and these are the real deal. I got raves on mine this year from our friends that we gave a dozen to. The chili's used here are very mild, so I use cascabel peppers. I always use 2 pork tenderloins to make mine. I poured all the chili sauce on the shredded meat, added about 1/2 tsp each of ground ancho chili powder and ground chipotle chili powder since it adds a smoked taste. Then let in stand for several hours before I made it into tamales. This is easier done the day ahead. I also add some ground ancho chili about 1/2 tsp. and 1/4 tsp ground chipotle chili to the masa. I use Maseca brand instant corn masa flour. I use almost all the broth and make the masa the consistency of thick cake frosting. I do have to make double the masa to use all my filling though. I don't measure the filling out, I just take some with my fingers and lay out a strip of filling down the center. It gives me 4 dozen tamales. We all agree these are even better the next day. They get spicier after reheating. I took some to work and everyone thought they came from the local (and favorite) tamale shop here. Took a bit of work, but was simple to do, and worth the time. Very easy to do, you just need a little time. If you are going to the trouble and effort you may as well make lots of tamales... I've done these with the lard and with crisco, the lard is better, so don't substitute. Delicioso! Muy Bueno!
Excellent! I had a hard time spreading the masa on the husks. I ended up using a moist corn husk to flatten/spread out the masa evenly. The review by Trptgoddess1 on 2/2004 was great and the mention by another review of using MASECA brand masa mix is great. I also added more chicken bullion powder to my masa. Try this...If you want to sample the flavor before making all of the tamales, just put a spoonful on a saucer and microwave for about 1 minute or so. It kind of makes a tamale cookie!
My husband is from New Mexico, and this is the type of food he is used to eating.I am from the deep South and had never made tamales before.I made these for dinner , and he absolutely loved them!Not too spicy for my tastes, not too bland for his.Even my super picky 2 year old liked them.I do reccomend using a little bit more broth, as they came out somewhat dry, but on a second try using more broth, they came out perfectly!I used ground beef instead, mixed it and the onion with the strained mixture using a blender (threw out the large chunks of chile).I will definitely make these again!Thanks for a great recipe!

I went to BKLYN Designs this weekend and I must say that the exhibition was even better this year than last. The show featured 55 different Brooklyn designers this year, bringing back old faves like Scrapile and BraveSpace, as well as adding plenty of hot new up-and-comers like EverySpace and ObjectInteriors.
Below are some quick pics so far, for all of my photos from the event, check out my Flickr feed photostream:
This gorgeous "arrange" shelf/vase by EverySpace design is one of my favorite things I saw yesterday. Such a simple idea, yet so lovely.
Another favorite from yesterday was this beautiful green cabinet made by BOA of ObjectInteriors. Every element in the gorgeous cabinet is environmentally sustainable: it's made from Kirei board, recycled paper and recycled steel. I want one of these!
Brooklyn design duo The Design Can never ceases to impress with their cute takes on homewares. I LOVE this neo-baroque blackbird mirror.
The interior of the main exhibit.
Old Brooklyn favorites Scrapile and BraveSpace both have released brand new designs at this show.
Designer Andrea Claire merges photographs into traditional cylindrical lamps to create these stunning light pieces.

Recipe by Pillsbury® Grands!®

1/2 cup
granulated sugar
1 teaspoon
2 (16.3 ounce) cans
Pillsbury® Grands!® Homestyle refrigerated buttermilk biscuits
1/2 cup
chopped walnuts
1/2 cup
1 cup
firmly packed brown sugar
3/4 cup
butter or margarine, melted
I first learned how to make this when I was a little girl and the woman who ran the daycare had the kids work together to make it. Now, I make this with my own kids. I don't use walnuts, I use pecans. Sometimes if I think of it, I'll make a vanilla glaze to drizzle over the top after I've turned it upside down. This doubles well and honestly disappears in 15 minutes. My family loves this. It's a great substitute for people who love cinnamon rolls but don't want to spend the time to make them.
three tips to make it 5 stars...
First I would boil the brown sugar and butter for two minutes in order to get it to "carmalize". Then pour it over the biscuits.
Second...I would skip the "Grands" biscuits and instead use regular Pillsburg refridgerator biscuits (the kind that come in a pack of 4). The "Grands" are too big and still taste too savory.
Last...I would skip the bundt pan and put it in a glass 11 X 17 pan. I read reviews complaining of uncooked dough, and by switching out pans, I had no trouble with the 28-32 recommended minutes.
83 Ratings
Boy does this bring back memories... This definitely is an irresistable childhood favorite and a great way to use Grands Biscuits. Not only is it fun to make, but fun to eat! I always use a bundt pan sprayed with Pam for baking so everything comes out with ease. I add the optional nuts and raisins along with 1 tsp. of vanilla to the butter and brown sugar mixture. When it's done, just invert the whole thing onto a plate and get out a ton of napkins!
A tip learned the hard way: don't use spray for greasing the cake pan. It's too much. Lightly spread some butter with a paper towel and it cooks better, and isn't as "greasy".
We loved this. Made it as directed, minus the raisins and walnuts (no one here will eat them but me.) I had no problem with the brown sugar mixture but as soon as my bread was done, I flipped it on a plate and let it sit there 10 minutes (still in the pan) so that the mixture would 'harden' onto the bread, not in the bundt pan. This one turned out so much better than the last monkey bread recipe I tried. Definitely a keeper!
I make with Pilsbury Grands cinnamon rolls, quartered and tossed with brown sugar, butter and pecans. Add a little water to the brown sugar butter to get more caramel. A favorite Saturday morning treat at our house.
What yummy gooey goodness on a cold morning. I did tweak this to my liking. I halved this. Then I melted the butter in the bottom of a large loaf pan and added the brown sugar and a tablespoon of milk to make a caramel sauce. I sprinkled pecans and raisins over the caramel and then layered the sugared pieces as directed. When it came out of the oven, I immediately inverted the pan to create a caramelized sticky loaf. Very nice!
It was an awful lot of sugar and butter and I actually ended up throwing some of the mixture away because after my 10 minute cool time, when I turned it out onto a platter, a lot of brown sugar mixture was still in the pan. I wouldn't use as much next time - I'd probably use half the sugar and butter. However, that said, this is a yummy treat to have once and a while.

Ted Davis traces the interesting (and often disturbing) history of how Christians have used evolutionary science to justify un-Christian views, and makes some suggestions about a better relationship between science and Christian faith.
This weeks in Origins news: studies of a skeleton uncovered in 2007 provide clues about rapid human evolution in the Americas, our climate and Christian stewardship, a few BioLogos folks give interviews, and some cool links to miscellaneous finds.
We must press beyond the various creation narratives in the Hebrew Bible, including the final chapters of Job, to the picture of God revealed in the New Testament—the Creator who does not rationally explain away the scandal of suffering but who instead enters into it.
This week in our Origins News Roundup: News of new nucleobases, the future of synthetic biology, and some healthy dialogue and critique of certain aspects of modern science.
Today's Origins News Roundup features a tour of trending topics in neuroscience, from commentaries and questions made recently by popular media to developments in neuroengineering and the BRAIN initiative.
Collins poses, as the central question of his book: "In this modern era of cosmology, evolution, and the human genome, is there still the possibility of a richly satisfying harmony between the scientific and spiritual worldviews?"
"I believe it is fair to conclude that the supposed threat posed to human free will and moral responsibility from the very much work-in-progress social and cognitive human sciences is quite overblown."
A deep love for scripture, coupled (ironically) with a lifelong struggle with religious doubt, led Robert Boyle to write several important books relating scientific and religious knowledge. We explore aspects of this fascinating interaction.
It is precisely the recognition of the qualities of elegance, economy and naturalness which solves the problem of the under-determination of theory by experiment, so often pressed by philosophers of science, who sometimes speak of the process of discovery as if it were a dull routine of fitting curves to data points.
The problem is that as human beings, we know that goodness exists, so it must be accounted for, and if one is a staunch believer in scientism, it must be accounted for scientifically.
Although committed to the principle of sola Scriptura, Calvin recognized that the Bible would have been written in terms its original recipients would have understood. Calvin inherited the medieval cosmology of his time, a way of viewing the world heavily influenced by Greek thought and one which was about to receive shocks from astronomers such as Copernicus and Galileo. But not just yet.
Once we have a scientific hypothesis for how something exists, it is tempting to make the philosophical inference that this is also why it exists.
In this three-part series, Cal DeWitt offers insights and examples of why science and ethics must work together to help us make informed, practical decisions within our society. DeWitt's science-ethics-praxis model provides a framework by which we can live more effectively as God's stewards.
In this series, David Buller pays careful attention to the original language and cultural context of Genesis 2, revealing that our responsibility to care for creation is a sacred task given to us by God, not merely a modern secular activity. By taking Scripture seriously, we learn that we have a God-given mandate to be diligent stewards of His creation.
Gregg Davidson and Ken Wolgemuth seek to remove the stumbling block of the Genesis flood in this four part series. Though many believe in an ancient world-wide flood, the evidence given does not hold up to geological scrutiny, but points rather to something regional instead. It is their hope that Christians will not walk away from faith in Christ simply because a global flood is not supported by science. Looking at natural phenomena like the Grand Canyon, salt beds, and fossil deposits, they reveal reasons for these deposits and structures while showing that their origin did not stem from a violent flood that covered the planet.
Pete Shaw highlights the story of Noah to explore how the story would have been understood in ancient times and from there he goes on to explore how we might consider it today.
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.
Seven years ago, fellow filmmaker Terry Kay Rockefeller and I set out on a voyage of discovery that would result in RENEWAL, the first feature-length documentary about America's religious-environmental movement.
This series, preceded by Genesis, Creation, and Ancient Interpreters: the Garden and the Fall, closely examines the "gaps" in the stories surrounding Cain in Genesis 4, and offers some ideas that the ancient commentators formulated in response to these factually incomplete accounts. Pete Enns highlights the questions these texts raised for early interpreters, including Adam and Eve's sexual relations, the conception and birth of Cain, and the murder of his brother Abel. Enns explains that these "gaps" in the narratives are good as they invite readers to reflect and ponder the messages of the stories.

A mysterious man trudges into town dragging a mud-stained coffin behind him. This man is Django. After he saves Maria from certain death, Django finds himself in the middle of a war between Mexican revolutionaries and a band of sadistic racists led by the fanatical Major Jackson. In the face of overwhelming odds, Django has a plan: to exact revenge while pitting enemy against enemy. Featuring the addictively catchy title song performed by Rocky Roberts, "DJANGO" made an international star of Franco Nero, and along with Leone's Man With No Name trilogy, established the Spaghetti Western as an internationally popular genre.

FaithNet Newsletter: July 3, 2008
In this issue:
National Tribute
July marks the first annual observance of Bebe Moore Campbell National Minority Mental Health Awareness Month, recently established by Congress. Bebe is considered one of the foremost African American novelists of the 20th century, and before her death in 2006, served as a national spokesperson for NAMI. She was a founder of NAMI California's Urban Los Angeles affiliate and an instructor in its Family-to-Family education program.
July 4: Stand with NAMI, Support Our Veterans
Independence Day is a day to celebrate our country's freedom. But on this day, like every day, thousands of veterans and active service members are affected by mental illness.
You can help. Make a donation online and add your name to NAMI's Veterans Tribute Honor Roll. You may also make your gift in tribute to a veteran, active duty service member, or other loved one, and include a message of
African American Faith-Based Education Initiative
Understanding the integral role of faith and spirituality in African American communities, NAMI is working with faith leaders, consumers and family members to educate different faith cultures about mental illness. These efforts are designed to help decrease stigma and ultimately allow more people to get the help and community
Joe Powell, executive director of Association of Persons Affected by Addiction, spoke of his successful outreach efforts with African American churches in Dallas. Powell also stressed the importance of addressing co-existing disorders, such as alcohol abuse and drug addiction. Workshop participants shared their personal stories of challenges and successes working within and reaching out to African American faith communities.
NAMI welcomes suggestions of past and current successful models and key issues that should be considered during the development and implementation of this initiative.
Please send input email@example.com.
For additional information on the initiative, visit NAMI's Multicultural Action Center online .
Creating Caring Congregations
At the 2008 NAMI national convention in June,Rev. Susan Gregg-Schroeder, coordinator of Mental Health Ministries, led a workshop on "Mental Illness and Families of Faith: Creating Caring Congregations."
Rev. Gregg-Schroeder walked participants through a five-step program designed to help congregations start or expand a ministry that welcomes individuals living with mental illness and their families. Some suggested efforts include contacting a local NAMI In Our Own Voice presenter to share their story with your congregation or hosting a Family-to-Family class at your church. By educating both clergy and lay people, faith communities can help to eliminate the stigma associated with mental illness.
The Creating Caring Congregations DVD is available online .
Breaking the Silence in Faith-Based Schools
As we know, mental illness does not discriminate; it affects people of all ages, races and religions. We also know that people living with mental illness and their families often turn to clergy in time of crisis. FaithNet has agreed to work with NAMI Queens/Nassau to bring mental illness education to our faith-based classrooms with Breaking the Silence.
Breaking the Silence (BTS)is a program owned and operated by NAMI Queens/Nassau. In 1991 three veteran teachers, who are also mothers of children with mental illness and NAMI members, developed BTS to teach students about mental illness. Innovative teaching packets for upper elementary, middle and high school students contain lessons, games, stories and posters that
At this time, we want to assess your interest in receiving free copies of BTS to be used in your religious, parochial school classrooms. We are not asking for a commitment; we simply would like to assess how many BTS packets would be needed. If interested, please send the following response to Amy Lax at firstname.lastname@example.com.
YES, I am interested in receiving free copies of BTS. If possible, please indicate how many packets you might want/need and if you are a teacher, a clergy member, parent…and how you will use BTS. Any additional

I have created a small LAN of a half-dozen computer here at work whose purpose is to allow access to the un-filtered Internet. (Our standard issue government computers can't reach some sites our jobs require.)
I have already set up a Ubuntu 9.04 server to act as a NAT/gateway/firewall box, but I want to be able to install anti-virus software on each of the boxes, but...
I want to have a central way to manage all of the boxes so that individual boxes don't need to be attended to. I am thinking of something like the commercial products from Norton/Symantec for commercial LANs.
Anybody have an ideas where I might find something like this?

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
Last week over a hundred of the world´s finest freestyle skiers headed to Park City, Utah, for the FIS Freestyle World Cup: The US Grand Prix. And guess who finished on top of the podium? Gus Kenworthy and Ayna Onozuka - and their Atomic Punx Skis.
The Marcel show goes on! And it´s getting even faster. In this weekend's giant slalom in Garmisch he posted the best time in each run, and finished a total of 3.28 seconds ahead of the runner up – the third biggest winning margin in giant slalom history. Meanwhile Benni Raich finished third, and Kathrin Zettel took third place in the super combined in bansko.
HIGHLIGHT OF THE IBU YEAR. After Falun is before Kontiolahti. The biathlon World Championships start right after the Nordic Champioships. Up to 20 Atomic athletes of the internationl team will participate in Kontiolahti, Finland. The update on the best athletes of the Atomic biathlon team and their chances in Finland.
Three times overall World Cup winner, three gold medals at the World Championships, silver at the Olympic Games - There´s no doubt Marcel Hirscher travels to the World Championships in Vail/Beaver Creek as the best skier in the World. But there are many reasons for this success. And as he says himself, his team is the key. Here´s an exclusive glimpse into the inner circle of Marcel Hirscher.
The pressure was on but they all were fast. The dedication and training for the Downhill at World championships in Beaver Creek have paid off: Travis Ganong proved that he is the next american star of ski racing. Both Michaela Kirchgasser and Marcel Hirscher showed once again just how fast the redsters can run: Marcel won the Alpine combined race, bronze medal for Michaela after the best downhill-performance of her life.
It's been a long time since Mikaela Shiffrin spent so much time at her home in Beaver Creek. Immediately after the Slalom in Flachau she jumped on a flight back home to prepare for an once-in-a-lifetime opportunity: the World Championships on her home slopes. "It's the dream that i never dared to dream", she says. Now it's about to come true, so we visited Mikaela at her home to find out how she's feeling.
100,000 spectators overall. A new one-night record of 48,500 fans for the ski Big Air event. All three marquee events – Slopestyle, Big Air and the Superpipe – televised on ESPN. And medals for team Atomic! What a week...
At Atomic we've been big fans of the Winter X Games from the start. And the 2015 Games this week in Aspen is no exception.
Our Atomic athletes will be out in force of course. And we're pleased to announce we're also supporting this year's event, with the whole X Games production crew fitted out with Atomic skiwear.
FANNY HORN'S BIG DAY. Ten shots – Ten times scored. Thanks to a first-class performance in skiing and shooting at the 7.5km sprint in Ruhpolding Atomic biathlete Fanny Welle-Strand horn celebrated her first victory in the world cup. Drama about the Swedish Atomic star Bill Impola: He was superiorly in the lead of la diagonela in St. moritz, the third station of the Ski Classics series, when he chose the incorrect track 1.5km from the finish…
Merry christmas! The season is now 24 races in and we're proud to say it has been a great start for the Atomic team.

Reasons To Use Weight Loss Pills
The reasons for why people get fat are multiple. A simple answer would be that they consume too much food. This could be a good reason, but it is not the only one cause of obesity. In our society stress has a great part in the problems that people have with their health. Someone who is totally stressed out will not have time to keep his life organized and to deploy a healthy way of living. The tendency is to eat tons of junk food as it costs less in terms of money and time. This totally hectic manner of eating will certainly lead to a state of obesity.
The first thing to do is analyze the parts of your life and discover what things prevent you from having a great general health. After you do that, you need to establish an efficient weight loss schedule that works for you. Many people are going to choose the weight loss pills because they are an easy way out. Actually people may like to shed the pounds as soon as possible without changing much their lifestyle. The pills are not causing any pain and are less risky than surgery. Also if the people choose a healthy way of living, the result of the weight loss can be permanent.
The first thing to do is to choose the right type of pills which will work for you. In this way reading a lot on this subject matter will be of great use. Other people can provide quite useful reviews. Look for the pills which contain natural ingredients. These pills are great because there aren't any side effects and the results can be seen immediately.
The pills will diminish the appetite. Food is a vital component of our life, but people need to know how much is too much in terms of eating. The idea is to find the right ground in terms of what and how much you ingest. Some people have huge hunger pangs and the pills will help them diminish it so that they can follow a good diet.
If you start on such a diet, the body will react in a positive manner. The fat is blocked ad the calories begin to be burned. The idea is to be consistent and to try and follow the diet entirely. Giving up half of the way will not help anyone, but it may boost the problem of obesity.

Dear Ms. Vicki,
It's been almost four months since I had a conversation with my husband. We don't talk anymore; we don't hug or touch each other. No smiles of fondness. Nothing.
My husband is not away on business travel and he's not deployed. He comes home from work every day. Seven days a week, he is closed away in his small office, tucked comfortably away from me and the world on his computer. He even sleeps in his office and not in our bed.
He prefers cybersex and video queens over me. He chooses them because I'm not good enough.
At first, we used to view movies or flicks together just to add spice to our bedroom. This became too much because he wanted me to do everything the video queen was doing. He wanted it more and more. It was like he was making love to an object, not me. Slowly, I closed down because he calls me bad names.
Now, I think my marriage is over. I have told my husband that he's addicted to porn, but this only leads to a huge argument that doesn't get us anywhere. What should I do now, Ms. Vicki?
Wife of a Porn Addict
Dear Wife,
Military couples tell me all the time that their problem with pornography began by viewing different material to spice up their bedroom activity. It started out as enjoyment for both of them. Or one person decided to join in to make their partner happy.
Then something happens. Pornography use becomes more frequent, more intrusive and more controlling of your life. I'll explain this by using my grandmother's old adage: "It's like allowing the devil to sit in the back seat of your car. Before you know it, he's behind the steering wheel!"
Pornography can wreak havoc on a relationship, ruin your self-esteem and self-worth and become a gateway to addiction. It can lead to isolation, relationship problems (e.g. poor communication and frequent arguments), sexual dysfunction, and/or a lack of intimacy with your spouse, partner or other family and friends.
I hesitate to diagnose someone based on a letter, but truly porn has become a major problem for you and many of the clients I see every week. A pornography addiction is diagnosed when a person participates to the extreme or the abuse of pornography until they experience harmful consequences like your husband.
He has a negative behavioral pattern that he is not able to control. He is powerless to stop even though his relationship is suffering. In turn, as his spouse, you face low self-esteem and low self-worth. Moreover, the verbal altercations have become emotionally abusive and could lead to physical altercations. I urge you to seek professional help with this. Start with MilitaryOneSource or Tricare.
And for those of you who are happy and you know it with your current use of pornography, next time I'll share my pornography quiz.
Ms. Vicki

Mission Type: Flyby
Launch Vehicle: Proton booster plus upper stage and escape stages, 8K82K + Blok D (Proton no. 243-01)
Launch Site: Tyuratam (Baikonur Cosmodrome), USSR, NIIP-5 / launch site 81L
Spacecraft Mass: about 5375 kg
Spacecraft Instruments: 1) biological payload; 2) radiation detectors and 3) imaging system
Deep Space Chronicle: A Chronology of Deep Space and Planetary Probes 1958-2000, Monographs in Aerospace History No. 24, by Asif A. Siddiqi
National Space Science Data Center, http://nssdc.gsfc.nasa.gov/
Solar System Log by Andrew Wilson, published 1987 by Jane's Publishing Co. Ltd.
Following a spate of partial successes and catastrophic failures, Zond 7 was the first fully successful Soviet circumlunar mission. The spacecraft had been the last 7K-L1 vehicle manufactured for robotic flight. In the original schedule, the next flight would have been piloted. Like its predecessors, Zond 7 carried a set of biological specimens, including four male steppe tortoises that were part of a group of thirty selected for an experiment.
After a midcourse correction on 8 August, the spacecraft successfully circled the far side of the Moon two days later at a range of 1,200 kilometers. Zond 7 performed color imaging sessions on 8 August (of Earth) and 11 August (two sessions of both Earth and the Moon).
The only major malfunction during the mission was the failure to deploy the main parabolic antenna (due to a problem in the securing cables), but this did not prevent fulfillment of all the primary goals of the mission. Zond 7 successfully carried out a guided reentry over Earth's atmosphere and landed without problem south of Kustanay in Kazakhstan after a flight lasting 6 days, 18 hours, 25 minutes.

It's time to panic! Monday, I sent an MS recruiter a nice email with my resume attached. Just past lunchtime on Tuesday, April 29, the "Microsoft College Staffing Consultant" (basically the head MS recruiter for my university) replied and said that he's forwarded my info to the person who will conduct what he called "the phone screening to determine a possible fit". This person, (judging by the name, a woman), sent me an email a half hour past midnight tonight. What a turnaround time! Most of my friends, who are not in CS majors, are seeing non-existent turnaround times as they spend weeks waiting for any kind of response from the companies they send their resumes to, i.e. there are no responses. In contrast, I went from writing an email with my resume attached to a scheduled phone interview in roughly 30 hours! Crazy.
Anyway.. I noted in my initial email that I believe I'd best fit in with either software development or user experience. It turns out they've decided to interview me for software development. SDEV, they call it. Well, that's a bucket full o' reason to panic! Getting any summer internship position at Microsoft is pretty difficult (notoriously so around these parts), but a position in SDEV? It justifies entering panic-mode.
A good friend who interviewed with them for the same position passed the phone interview and was flown out to Seattle twice. They liked her enough to give her a position as something along the lines of system admin. She'll be responsible for a range of machines and keeping stuff going. At least that's what I could pull from memory--I'd have to ask her to get a specific job title. She starts there this summer.
I'm not too proud to say that she's most definitely the smarter human being than I am. She's a Comp Sci/Math major and overall, knows her shit pretty well, shall we say. Me? I'm passionate about computer science, but just don't quite have what it takes wired into my neural system to be a math whiz. I'm an intelligent being, for sure, but I can't say that mathematics is my forte. When it comes to coding I definitely enjoy it and would say my skill-set is solid, but not outstanding. Without some serious preparation, asking around and possibly buying a book on interview questions and studying that thoroughly, I personally don't think I currently would stand too good a chance at getting far.
So, yeah, panic mode! And all this comes in the last week of classes, one week before most of my final exams. The last day of classes is this Thursday, which happens to be the same day MS suggested I have the phone interview with them. Needless to say, no can do. I'll have to move the interview date as deeply as possible into next week, giving them multiple possible dates. This feels like a 5th final exam!
Anyway.. I thought I'd share and put this up for discussion for no particular reason at all. I feel pressured, and thought it might help a bit to share the story.
Thanks for tuning in!
A bit of back-story: the friend I mentioned recently got hired by MS and she was out with two MS recruiters this weekend as part of a new hires event. They ended up at a bar down town and she let me know who she's there with. I went, of course, and ended up talking to them for a bit. I suppose I had a bit of an edge in that respect, though whether that had anything to do with their lightning fast response time is anyone's guess.

En español | Hot, spicy foods feature prominently in the equatorial countries — Mexico, India and the Caribbean islands, for example. The reasoning: If you eat something hot, you sweat, and that cools you down. You're also likely to rehydrate. It's why bars set out those complimentary spicy-hot, salty snacks — to boost the bar tab.
So, deep into the sweltering days of summer, I'm considering this time-honored antidote and adding a little kick to my meals.
Fresh jalapeno provides the subtle heat in Spicy Salmon Vera Cruz Foil Packets, but the prep and cooking techniques are pretty cool.
Toss all of the ingredients together, divide the mixture into portions and put each atop heavy-duty foil, then seal. Cook them for just eight minutes in a blistering-hot covered grill, where the packet contents are pressure-steamed. Remove the packets from the grill and let them sit for a couple of minutes.
The residual heat will gently cook them to perfection. If you want bolder heat (the spicy kind), add a generous pinch of cayenne pepper or hot red pepper flakes to the mix.
Spicy Grilled Shrimp With Sweet Chili Sauce and Cilantro features two different forms of heat. Before grilling the shrimp, toss them with sriracha (Thai) or chili garlic sauce (Vietnamese) — similar chili concoctions made with vinegar, salt and little sugar. These spicy sauces provide not only the first layer of heat but also enough sugar to encourage browning.
Once the shrimp come off the grill, toss them with bold, sweet Thai chili sauce, balancing the sweet with sour lime and fresh cilantro. The shrimp make a superb appetizer or first course, but you can also serve them with a side of rice and stir-fried vegetables as a main course.
Chopped green chilies, chili powder, salsa — radishes even — all heat up Spicy 7-Layer Chicken Tostadas. For bold heat, opt for hot chili powder and extra-spicy salsa. And for extra kick, don't forget to set out bottles of hot sauce. These days I'm drawn to the green hot sauces and those that feature smoky chipotles.
The next time it's 80 degrees at 7 a.m., forget the frozen pops and iced tea. Reach for the cayenne, hot pepper flakes and spicy chili powder — and cool down, Tijuana-style.

The Community of Disc Golfers and About All Things Disc Golf
Views: 126
I played high school and college sports and one of the best pieces of advice I was given early on was to chew gum...there is something about chewing gum that calms a person. Then, I have heard a number of players recommend the book The Zen of Golf - worth a read! And, finally, just you be you...play your game...and HAVE FUN!!! Good luck!!!
Quaaludes or Valium.
Just kidding. It's just a tournament. It's not like you are playing ball golf for a million dollar purse or anything. Relax already. And get ready for a slow pace of play. What are you worried about anyway? Nothing to lose.
Zen Golf is a Great read to help with the mental game. But, nothing helps me more than realizing I am out on the course playing the game I LOVE most. Just relax and throw. What happens happens! You can make it work.
Best of luck!!!!! :)
Relax have fun!!! Play your game!!!! It will be slower than usual!! Other than that!!!! Nothing different!!!! MAKE YOUR PUTTS!!!!!
by Bob Rotella
Sports Psychologist
Rotellas Ten Commandments: (*adapted for Disc Golf)
I. Play to play great. Don't play not to play poorly.
II. Love the challenge of the day, whatever it may be.
III. Get out of results and get into process.
IV. Know that nothing will bother or upset you on the golf course, and you will be in a great state of mind for every shot.
V. Playing with a feeling that the outcome doesn't matter is almost always preferable to caring too much.
VI. Believe fully in yourself so you can play freely.
VII. See where you want the *disc to go before every shot.
VIII. be decisive, committed, and clear.
IX. Be your own best friend.
X. Love your *roc and your putter.
Excerpts from "Golf is Not a Game of Perfect"
...this is the first mental principle a golfer must learn: A person with great dreams can achieve great things. A person with small dreams, or a person with out the confidence to pursue his or her dreams, has consigned himself or herself to a life of frustration and mediocrity.
...golfing potential depends primarily on a player's attitude, on how well he plays with the wedges and the putter, and on how well he thinks.
...champions all have a few common characteristics. They are all strong-willed, they all have dreams, and they all make a long-term commitment to pursue those dreams.
...If a golfer chooses to go after greatness, he must understand that he will encounter frustration and disappointment a long the way. Big improvements require working and chipping away for years. A golfer has to learn to enjoy the process of striving to improve.
...A golfer can and must decide how he will think.
...You cannot hit a golf ball consistently well if you think about the mechanics of your swing as you play!!! A golfer must train his swing and then trust it. When great players are playing well, trust becomes a habit. The golfer executes his shots without being aware that he trusts his swing. He simply picks out a target, envisions the kind of shot he wants to hit, and hits it.
...If you wish to play your best golf, you can't wait until a few putts fall and a couple of birdies go on the scorecard before you start trusting. You have to start replicating the state of mind you have on a hot streak as soon as you step onto the first tee. No matter what happens during your round, you have to strive to maintain that state of mind. You have to stay out of your own way.
...Attitude is what makes a great putter. Putting is largely mental, and you have control over your mind and attitude. To become a good putter, you must make a commitment to good thinking. You have to fill your mind with thoughts that will help you, not excuses for poor putting. You have to decide that, come what may, you love putting and you're glad that every hole gives you a chance to use your putter, because that where you've got a big advantage over all the players who dread putting.
...No matter what happens with any shot you hit, accept it. Acceptance is the last step in a sound routine.
...Good golfers, I think, have to get over the notion that they only want to win by hitting perfect shots. They have to learn to enjoy winning ugly. And that entails acceptance of all the shots they hit, not just the good ones.
...But the question is, does it do any good to get angry? Getting angry is one of your options. But if you choose to get angry, you are likely to get tighter. That's going to hurt your rhythm and your flow. It will upset you and distract you. It will switch on your analytical mind and your tendency to criticize and analyze anything you do that falls short of perfection. It will start you thinking about the mechanical flaws in your sing and trying to correct them. You will very likely play worse. Alternatively you could train yourself to accept the fact that as a human being, you are prone to mistakes. Golf is a game played by human beings; therefore, golf is a game of mistakes. The best golfers strive to minimize mistakes but they don't expect to eliminate them
Nice response Boom Boom.
Relax and enjoy yourself,listen.
Party afterwards not during the tourney.
Practice putting for the next two weeks,15 minutes then relax.Come back later for the additional 15 minutes,call it a day.Repeat the following days,don't burn yourself out. Hit chains.
Best thing you can do is lower your expectations. Just relax and throw. Your score will sort itself out.
I played my first ever tourney back in June and was a tad nervous on the first tee (we had tee times), but after that, I settled down to throwning the same crappy shots I'd been throwing for several months previous. My expectations were quite low, though because my form had utterly fallen apart earlier that year. I don't know what happened. I lost 50' of distance and about 70% of my accuracy. It's slowly coming back now but going into the tourney it was actually a good thing because I had no reason to expect a good tournament out of myself.
I wouldn't necessarily lower your expectations. You probably shouldn't expect to come in first place on your first outing however. Have a good game plan. And don't try to go out of your way to throw risky shots. Know what works for you and use those throws when the need arises. Play conservative. Take a breath when needed. Don't worry about other people and what they are doing. Relax.

Hello everyone,
I have a few questions that I need help with please: all welding procedures are for ASME Section IX
1. When developing weld procedures to weld pipe materials like P1 (A106 grade A, B, C, and API 5L X-41, X-46, and X-56) to the same or any P1 to P1 combination for ASME B31.3 application in an oil and gas production site for flow lines, I do not need Charpy impact testing for temperatures of -20F and above right?
2. What if I'm developing welding procedures to join API wellhead flanges (materials: 4130 welded to the same), is there any minimum temperature for Charpy impact requirement, in other words, if the temperature anticipated is going to be -20F and above, is Charpy impact testing required for this material. If Charpy is required and it is not at -20F, at what temperature is it required, or do I have to test for impact/toughness no matter what the temperature is for the 4130 material?
3. What if I'm developing a welding procedure to transition from API wellhead to ANSI line pipe (material: 4130 to A106 B or any other P1 material), since the design of this joint is based on the weaker material (A106 grade B or other applicable P1), do I need Charpy impact testing for -20F and above?
Note: All welding procedures per ASME Section IX

Iimpact testing for ASME B31.3
A106-B,P1-P1 Pipe as per ASME B31.3 construction code does not typicaly require impact testing, down to -20f.
Below -20f you should be using A333 (low temp) Piping with impact testing down to -38
Rememer this is minimum code requirements and customer requirements may require more stringent criteria.
You can use A106-B piping at below -20f (ambient temp) if you insulate and or heat trace the piping system. It all depends on the circumstances and customer requirements.
Production lines in Alberta usually have glycol heat trace and insulation installed around them for ease of product flow, but you should not rely upon heat trace alone,it could go down, Low temp piping is usually specified by the customer.
You should develope your welding procedure's with your customers requirements in mind,as well as ASME and ABSA requirements.

Impact testing requirement
Thanks for your response:
I completely understand your response about P1 to P1 and I agree.
What about P1 to 4130 and 4130 to 4130?
Thank you.

A106 to 4130
a) Design drawings developed in accordance with a design code/code of construction
b) Service conditions and NACE requirements
c) Canadian registration number documentation for the 4130 hammer unions
d) Minimum acceptable mechanical properties of the welded 4130 hammer unions after postweld heat treatment
The above was a reply from Ludwig Edmonton on the requirements for developing WPS's for A106 to 4130. In addition it was suggested to reference the ERCB Directive 077 as it also has a bearing.
Any other information from the forum would be appreciated."

I am also always happy when there are multiple photo spots, as we have 4 kids and can never choose just one family photo. One small thing (which is why 3 stars for design): in China, we just say "Happy New Year". I think you could do the exact same card and just put Happy New Year. The horse and the chinese character will indicate what you mean. A small thing, but it was my pet peeve with all the "chinese" new year cards. But, again, so happy that they were available on Tiny Prints. Now, if you could just put them inside a red envelope to more closely resemble hong bao, it would be perfect!"

Men who live in neighborhoods that experience pesticide drift are 1.5 times more likely to develop prostate cancer.
This is what scientists found in a one-of-a-kind study that compares rates of the cancer among men who lived near agricultural fields where methyl bromide, captan or organochlorine insecticides were applied with those who lived farther from drifting pesticides.
Yesterday, PAN joined United Farm Workers (UFW) for part of their 13-day, 200-mile pilgrimage to Sacramento, demanding fair policies for farmworkers.
About 20 people affliliated with PAN, including Co-Director Kathryn Gilje, joined the march for workers' rights yesterday morning on a stretch of highway between Lodi and Galt. "Peak fumigation season in California's strawberry fields is just a few weeks away," she said. "Governor Brown should follow the science, ensure fair treatment for farmworkers and take immediate steps to pull methyl iodide off the shelves."
Cancer. Ironically and tragically, as I've experienced more and more cancer in the lives around me, I've begun to harden myself to its consequences. I expect it someday. I accept cancer as an inevitable part of life that we must battle and do our best to survive. I've even watched myself teach this to young ones as I attempt to soothe their fear. Despite my best intentions, I'm normalizing cancer.
But this much cancer — and the pain, fear, and enormous cost that accompanies it — doesn't have to be a normal part of life. Cancer used to be exceedingly rare. And we should just never be in a position of trying to make sense of rising rates of childhood cancer. Period.

Last week a friend posted a slideshow of her niece on facebook. The girl's father had written a song to accompany the photos of his daughter's battle with leukemia. It made me cry.
The fact that a 5-year-old girl should have to summon such courage takes me quickly from tears to anger. Children should not be battling cancer, yet more and more are forced to do exactly that. A report released last week confirmed that childhood cancer rates are higher than ever before, and continue to climb.

Marussia Virgin Racing
Constructors championship 2010: 12th
New to the F1 scene last year, they remain Virgins in one sense – they have yet to score their maiden World Championship point after what Team Principal John Booth called "a tough but incredibly rewarding baptism".
They go into 2011 buoyed by a new title partnership with Russian automotive concern Marussia, which was confirmed at the final race of 2010 in Abu Dhabi; it has seen a significant reshuffle behind the scenes.
New CEO Andy Webb uses the catch-cry "Ambition, Progress, Distinctive", which may not be grammatically sound but means they want to take a step forward and do it their own unique way.
24 Timo Glock (age 28, German, 55 Grand Prix starts)
Began his on-off F1 career with four races for Jordan back in 2004, then returned in 2008 with Toyota, for whom he recorded fine podium performances in Hungary (2nd in `08) and Singapore (3rd in `09) and finished 10th overall in both campaigns. 2010 season: no points, 25th – best result 14th in Japan.
25 Jérôme D'Ambrosio (age 25, Belgian, making his F1 debut)
Comes to Albert Park after a hard-working final test in Barcelona – he had to do the whole four days when Timo was whisked off for an emergency appendectomy.
2010 season: A seasoned GP2 campaigner who was briefly dropped by his DAMS team last year, Jérôme showed his potential with a pole and victory in the Monaco GP2 sprint race, then got a taste of F1 by being 'Friday driver' with Virgin four times late in the year.
MVR-02, powered by Cosworth and again designed entirely, as Virgin put it, in the digital domain.

Guys: I plan to add a few mounting tabs to the body of my project car on the interior. They would be small tabs with the same thickness as the body panels...not sure of exact gauge. But essentially sheet metal thickness and a lap joint. I am new to welding and using a Diversion 180. My big question is what precautions do I need to take to make sure I don't hurt the car's electrics. This is thin enough that I will be at low amperage. I will place the ground cable as close as possible to the weld area. Is that my only precaution or do I need to do more to make sure the electrical system won't be harmed in any way? Probably a dumb question, but you guys are the experts. I appreciate it!

I agree with kb on both aspects watched my father to it most of my life.
If your worried about hurting the battery then either disconnect both leads or none at all. I have seen on more than one occasion someone disconnecting the ground only & having the battery shorted out.
The most important part is to have a good close ground on clean metal.MM250

En español | I lost 40 pounds between the summer of 2004 and the spring of 2005, and it's because I didn't diet. For the first time in my 50-plus years, there was no plan to stick to and then go off of. Finally I'd found a pleasurable yet lighter way of eating, and it changed my life. Since then I've maintained my new weight, and I want to share with you a few of the delicious recipes that have helped me keep the weight off. You might be surprised that food this good can be so good for you.
Eating breakfast every day is important, but if it's full of refined white-flour and granulated sugar, I'm rooting around in the pantry by midmorning. Whole grains, on the other hand, are more likely to satisfy me until lunch, which is why I like to whip up these four-grain pancakes. There's just enough all-purpose flour in the mix to keep the pancakes light and fluffy, but there are three times as much combined cornmeal, whole-wheat flour and rolled oats — for a healthy 3-to-1 ratio of whole grains to regular flour.
Griddle up a fresh batch of these pancakes on the weekend, and freeze the leftovers in zip-close bags. Then when you're looking for a quick midweek breakfast, just pop a few in the toaster.
A healthy, substantial lunch is important too. Soup is my cool-weather lunch choice, and my favorites are the creamy ones. Fortunately, I've found a low-calorie, low-fat way to get my cream fix. At only 12 calories per tablespoon (compared with cream's 50), low-fat evaporated milk satisfies my craving without the guilt. Curried cream of tomato soup with chickpeas and spinach, made with the low-fat evaporated milk, is a creamy and nutritious meal in a bowl.
The spring catalogs are starting to arrive, and I'm eyeing the swimsuit sections, thinking, "I'm so glad I won't need to crash diet to get ready for the beach this summer!"
Four-Grain Pancakes
Makes about 16 4-inch pancakes serving 6 to 8
- ½ cup each: fine cornmeal, all-purpose flour, whole-wheat flour and old-fashioned rolled oats
- 1 teaspoon each: salt and baking powder
- ½ teaspoon baking soda
- 1½ cups low-fat buttermilk or kefir, plus 1/2 cup water
- 4 teaspoons agave
- 2 large eggs
- 2 tablespoons vegetable oil
- Vegetable oil for brushing the griddle
- Heat a large nonstick skillet or griddle over low heat while preparing ingredients. Mix cornmeal, flours, oats, salt, baking powder and baking soda in a medium bowl. Whisk buttermilk, water, agave, eggs and oil in a 1-quart measuring cup until thoroughly combined. Pour wet ingredients into bowl of dry ingredients; whisk until just mixed. Turn batter into the 1-quart measuring cup, stirring in a teaspoon or so of water if necessary to make a thick but pourable batter.
- Increase heat to medium and lightly brush skillet or griddle with oil. When oil starts to spider but before it starts to smoke, pour batter, about ¼ cup at a time, working in batches if necessary to avoid overcrowding. When pancake bottoms are golden brown and top starts to bubble, 2 to 3 minutes, flip pancakes; cook until golden brown on second side. Repeat, brushing skillet or griddle with oil between batches. Serve hot.

BP to commercialize 'breakthrough' acetic acid technology at a world-scale plant
6:18 AM MST | November 7, 2013 | Natasha Alperowicz
BP announced today that it is ready to commercialize two new technologies: the SaaBre synthesis gas (syngas)-to-acetic acid process and Hummingbird, a process that directly converts ethanol to ethylene through dehydration. Nick Elmslie, chief executive of BP's global petrochemicals business said at a press briefing, held today in London, that SaaBre is the biggest breakthrough in acetic acid technology in the past 40 years. BP is the second-largest producer of acetic acid behind Celanese with 16% of the 16-million m.t./year worldwide market...
