Drunk rube is a COSTUME? Great, now I gotta go change.
Another point: the rate of physically attractive women is a LOT higher than it is for men. Most dudes look like shit, so the more they cover up, the better.
What's a Rube? I just wiki'ed it and didn't come up with anything satisfactory...
And why do more straight men look like shit? Because they can look like shit and not pay a price for it—meaning, they can look like shit and still get laid. Why? Because straight women don't respond/demand good visuals, it seems. A straight can let himself fall apart, and women will still fuck him. A straight woman doesn't have that luxury, and neither does a gay man.
I would even go farther than that: Straight women like men have let themselves fall apart a bit. A straight guy that's too pretty, and too perfect, is less attractive to many straight women than a guy who has decent looks but has allowed himself to go slightly to pot.
Once at a Halloween party I met a guy who was dressed as Russell Crowe from Gladiator, and damned if he wasn't getting more ass that night than he could keep his hands on. And yes it was mostly gay men there, but still.
There are lots of sexy outfits for straight guys too: firefighter, He-Man (thank you Wm. Steven Humphrey), Superman, etc. It seems like the straight guys at the Halloween parties I've attended go more for humor than sexiness.
To add to Dan's point, there are a lot of women who get a kick out of 'fixing' a man.
I'd say that applies equally to straight women and gay men. The mind blowing, biggest lie we tell ourselves is "I can change him."
I know from experience that the sight of me in a Speedo provokes cries of horror and demands for a Congressional investigation.
There's literally no scientific evidence for the "men are just more visual than women" claim. It's conventional wisdom—but so is "gay men are pedophiles." That doesn't make it true. The reason women dress up as sexy sexy sluts for Halloween is that we've had it beaten into us for our entire lives that male attention can only be obtained in one way - by out-slutting other women. Servicing the patriarchy by dressing up as subservient male fantasies (sexy sexy stewardess! sexy sexy maid!) is not in our genes; it's something society reinforces and rewards us for at every turn. To say that dressing up as sexy-sexy-subservient-male-fantasy is somehow genetic or inherent is just incredibly naive and insulting.
A rube is a country bumpkin that just fell off the turnip truck.
So what are you going to be for Halloween Frau Erica?
And: Suggesting that "men are just more visual" is no different, philosophically (because it's something that's reinforced by anecdotal evidence, not science) than suggesting that "men are just worth more money" or "men are just predisposed to beat women." just because something gender-specific HAPPENS (e.g. men beat women more than women beat men; men make more money) doesn't mean it's the result of innate characteristics. This is the kind of it's-her-fault-she-got-raped shit that men have always used to keep women doing what men want.
"The invisible hand of the sexual marketplace."
OK your sympathy with Andrew Sullivan makes more sense now. Go to a web page marketing goods that dramatically limit consumer choice to starkly defined gender roles, then say consumers make their choices without any regard to marketing.
It's not genetic, but, as Dan said, it's women making a conscious, market-driven choice to do so. A typical, hetero woman who wants to attract mens' attention on Halloween realizes that dressing as "sexy _______" is the most sure-fire way to accomplish that. Society may reinforce that, but it's only because that's what a large # of hetero men want, and what a large # of hetero women are willing to do.
I think guys don't dress sexy because it's harder to pull it off. Moreover, I think the average woman would appreciate a creative, clever, or witty costume than one that showed off the man's pecs. Unfortunately for Erica, the average man appreciates a costume that shows off the breasts.
And "gay men are pedophiles" is not conventional wisdom. Conventional wisdom is not the same as a stereotype.
As a former goth girl, I'm thinking about going as Robert Smith of the Cure. But I'm open to suggestions..
I guess it depends on the goal of the costume. Are we purposefully trying to attract men and attention? I was a cowboy one year recently and while it was certainly clichéd, the attention was totally there.
What are some more appropriate ways to catch their eye? I've seen some very funny non-sexy female costumes over the years; do straight guys respond to those the same way?
Dan, I am a straight woman and have no problems with sexy costumes and I sure as hell don't want men (unless they work out or have otherwise reasonably attractive bodies) to start showing flesh. This isn't about getting mad about men not having to wear sexy costumes. It's about having choices. Ya know, SELECTION! Maybe the costume-makers don't think there's any market for non-sexy girl costumes, but I think there is.
Let's say I've eaten a few too many muffins (true story) and yet still need a quick costume for Halloween that I don't have to make myself or use any of my time/energy for. Too bad. I have no choice but to look like an overgrown idiot in a "sexy" costume. It may look sexy on a 20-something, but once you hit 30ish (or 40ish) and don't look like you did at age 20, it just looks stupid.
Or let's say I'm a 20-something that would like to be a carrot. Or a slice of pizza. Or Glenda the Good Witch. Or a host of other things that aren't necessarily sexy. I have to take time and energy to make something. Wahh! I'm a consumer who wants a better selection than that.
Or maybe Halloween is really just for kids and I should just stay home and pass out (and eat half of) the candy. Yum.
Sexy Robert Smith?
Out of solidarity for my sisters in arms, I will wear a costume that prominently displays my wiener and ample butt-cleavage.
OMG, you were once goth?! Cheers to your youth, and nice costume choice.
RE: this comment by Dan in 4:
A straight guy that's too pretty, and too perfect, is less attractive to many straight women than a guy who has decent looks but has allowed himself to go slightly to pot.
True, and thank fucking God.
One more thought, regarding the alleged marketplace for costumes and options for women that aren't Sexy Fill in the Blank:
Make your own damn costume for crissakes.
No one says you have to rent something--be creative. I'm anti-Hallowe'en in general, but my fondest memories are of my aunt Peggy getting me and my brothers transformed into hobos (politically incorrect today, but those burnt-cork beards were a gas), mummies, whatever.
Anyone who doesn't want to be what you're being sold on, go make your own costume.
i got a staight friend that's dressing up like a 70's porn star a la dirk diggler..
look out for him. although, like dirk, the cock he'll be sportin will be prosthetic. i was trying to get him to wear that thong that borat wears on the beach. maybe next year.
Dan, I would guess the reason women hang out to men even when they slide into utter unattractiveness is that they don't want to be old maids. Or raise a bunch of kids by themselves. Or lose a bunch of income that they will never equally achieve because they are women.
Hanging onto one's man (a frequent theme in many songs of different genres) and is important to many women for mostly f**ked up reasons, but still. I don't agree with it, but clearly a lot of women subscribe to this.
Isn't there a link down the page about how both Men and Women are focused by sexually -explicit images?
I'm with Bill. Who are these ridiculous people who rely on store-bought costumes?
Perhaps the market forces go something like this: People who buy costumes in stores are unimaginative and uninteresting. Unimaginative and uninteresting people like lame, typical, "sexy" costumes for women. Therefore, stores sell mostly lame, typical, "sexy" costumes for women.
Oh, and for the record: I was asked recently what I'm going to be for Halloween: "An adult," I replied.
Is there something wrong with trying to look sexy and get attention?
Mother Culture teaches straight people that girl parts are pretty and boy parts are icky, so sexy attention-getting costumes for males would cover the icky boy parts and portray strength, wealth, and power.
I was reading something about "scientific evidence...visual...lalala" and stuff, but I got distracted by the hottie in the ad next to it...so what happened?
I make my costume every year, but there are some lazy years that I'd rather just grab a store-bought costume.
Sexy costumes are fine, we just need to have a choice.
I've seen men sport sexy costumes in the past. But when straight men wear sexy costumes, the sexiness is often meant to be a joke. Female nudity is never allowed to be comical or raucous, and so we do not have the luxury of our "sexy" costumes being interpreted as anything other than an earnest, one-dimensional seduction attempt. And that is some major bullshit, Dan.
Which is why you will see me at Chop Suey tonight disguised as Donald Sutherland.
Andrew, agreed on #7.
Erica should dress up as a 4 lane surface boulevard for Halloween. Or a monorail train. The latter's probably more feasible.
Just like Smurfette's only Smurf trait was that she was female. Like there was no Brainy Smurfette or even Vanity Smurfette. There were just a variety of Smurfs of all kinds and just one girl whom I guess had all or none of those other traits, who knows?
Okay, maybe that's a non-sequitur :) Maybe they have a Sexy Smurfette costume?
Make my own costume? GREAT idea. Because women are SO good at sewing!
It seems to me that every girl I know wants to dress sexy on Halloween. It's like the get-out-of-jail-free card for women. They don't want that type of attention (and all the crap that comes with it) or the name calling that will result from dressing that way any other day, but you can do it on Halloween.
And someone did make this point earlier but it bears repetition: if a man dresses up showing a lot of flesh, he's gay. Even if he's not, people will think he is, which makes it a big waste of time for him....
If there is no diff. between men and women on visual stim. then why is most visual porn geared toward men? I contend that even Playgirl would have tanked decades ago if gay men didn't help support it. Yes, women are turned on by a hot guy, but that is not the only thing most of them are looking for. If it was just the visuals that got them off, then there would be more porn for straight women that is purely visual. Most porn for women that i've seen is couples porn on skinamax. Most women i've talke to think the masturbation porn of hot guys jerking off is either gross or too funny. most gay men don't mind seeing a hot guy stroking it. visuals. there is a difference. a varied and nuanced one, but a difference.
All this dirty talk is just clouding the real spirit of Halloween: Being told by your supervisor "Freddy Krueger" that you can "take half an hour to look at the (Halloween decorated) booths and get a snack or whatever."
PS There aren't any "sexy" costumes at work today. I did see a coworker wearing a cape with a saggy "devil's tail" and horns peeing at the urinal though. Hip hip hooray!!
omg. what a bitchfest! halloween is not just for kids. dressing up is a tradition that goes back thousands of years--what do you think a masquerade is? think about carnival in europe or rio or new orleans; people get dressed up and then go over the top in their party behavior. it's a release, a chance to put on a mask and be someone else for a little while. let's put away our daily bullshit and release that tension! get out of your normal skin and be sexy or frumpy or disgusting or really funny. just be creative, however you know how.
ps-people who think halloween is just for kids don't know how to have a good time. you suck.
Make your own costume doesn't automatically mean sew it. Creative use of extant clothes or props is equally easy for anyone who cannot wield a needle.
@34. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA. Wow.
Erica, you should dress up as Andy Warhol. Don't forget the bullet hole and the blood.
I think it makes perfect sense to want to be able to buy a store-bought costume (made by some 14-year old girl chained to a sewing machine in a far-off country with lax labor laws) that reflects a more progressive ideology. Feminism is all about choices, after all.
The most important thing is that this disposable article of clothing that is meant to be worn once and thrown away reflects your heartfelt desire to make a better world.
Of course, the Marie Curie and Susan B Anthony costumes do require three times as much fabric to make as the Sexy L'il Red Riding Hood, so they cost a bit more.
I think it's hard to argue with Dan's point that sexy costumes work better in general at attracting desired attention for het women than they do for het men, as raw data. I don't think that necessarily implies inherent, rather than learned, differences, and rereading Dan's post, I'm not actually sure he made that jump. I've ranted in comments before about the apparent differences in expressed sexual desire between men and women, but this is also just raw data - as an example, lets go into the (ick) casual encounters section of craigslist and compare counts of men seeking women to vice-versa:
m4w: 2,398
w4m: 80
And, a good portion of the w4m ads can be assumed to be spam for porn sites. The point is, when a man likes a woman, he's supposed to walk up to her and make it known ("know what he wants", but I hate that phrase), and when a woman likes a man, she's supposed to sit there and be annoyed that he hasn't paid attention to her yet. Whether this is because of an inherent difference in sexual desire, or because women have just learned they're not supposed to express desire and men have learned they're supposed to express it ad obnoxium, I haven't done any research, and I haven't formed an anecdotal opinion either - it seems weird to me that the external difference would be so stark, even in progressive circles, without an inherent internal difference, but entrenched social pressures are powerful, and it also seems weird to me that humans would have evolved to have such an extreme difference in sexuality between genders. Anyway, I think Erica and Dan are both right.
ECB, you kinda jumped the shark with #34. Woah there.
re: #34: Kidding, y'all. Calm down.
Word. Damn this Internet! It makes sarcasm much more difficult to detect.
and here i thought women were just naturally good at sarcasm
at least they are in my family
What happened to Halloween being SCARY?
The amount of time I've wasted looking at SLOG today is pretty damn scary. Must...keep...working...
This thread terrifies me.
Want to make a statement about the lack of options? Dress up like a typical straight dude for Halloween and have your "sexy sexy" girlfriends who are wearing witch/cop/prisoner etc costumes hang the fuck all over you.
You could be: pot-bellied, scruffy, balding or a complete idiot and it would make a good point. in fact, the more lame you look, the better.
i, for one, am a woman dressing up as justin timberlake for halloween. i can be sexy AND wear clothes. :)
@44 - what does it tell you, ECB, when nobody can tell when you're being serious or being "funny"? lol. unless everything you write about sexism is meant to be a joke?
NO, ECB, I insist on being horrified, offended and obstinate that my 50's era misogynist sensibilities have been challenged! And stuff.
NO, ECB, I insist on being horrified, offended and obstinate that my 50's era misogynist sensibilities have been challenged! And stuff.
Wait a minute, did I hear Erica was going to sew me a costume? Far out!
I'm going as "sexy FNARF".
I totally want that Napoleon Dynamite costume for myself.
i'm leaving sexes behind. the house party i'm going to has a "robot revolution" theme and my ass is going to be safely hidden behind tin foil, duct tape, and a healthy smattering of random computer parts I just scored from my employer's surplus room. I've got 34 sticks of ram, a motherboard with a PIII processor and the number pad and guts from an old operator's phone. After I get LED's from RadioShack, aluminum ducting from Home Depot, and a cardboard box, this little robot, this little robot overlord, is going to 01010000 01000001 01010010 00100000 01000110 01010101 01000011 01001011 01001001 01001110 01000111 00100000 01010100 01000001 01011001 (par fucking tay).
My box body is going have a secret hatch that will open to an interior space filled with bottles of beer. So if you see a robot on capitol hill, ask nicely and you might get a free beer and be spared.
the revolution is coming.
citizens of tomorrow, be forewarned ;)
Recent studies (One from University of Washington IIRC) have indicated that women and men are equally aroused by visual stimuli, and as a female I buy this. It's just that the standard for male attractiveness is actually higher than the standard for female attractiveness-- it's not the women that are in the minority in finding male bodies attractive, it's the men with the genes, age and drive to exemplify the ideal that are rare. There are women who like the look of non-idealized male flesh, and I agree, Dan, that they are the minority.
Go to a frat party or a sports team party on Halloween, and you will see MANY fit young men showing their bodies, and MANY women responding to it and pursuing them.
Some straight males like a big butt. VERY few women like a spare tire on a man. Wow, women are so shallow, why can't we just value men for who they are? Oh wait. That's not how sex works for most people. The important thing is that men who show their physiques feel/are powerful, and women who show their bodies are perceived to be/feel disempowered. That's a cultural problem and we need to fix it.
We own our bodies no matter who sees it... At least until Duhbyuh appoints another SC Judge.
Conejo, Fnarf is already very, very sexy, so a sexy Fnarf would be TOO sexy. Too sexy for his shirt, maybe. Too sexy for the roomful of people who ran out of the room screaming after the shirt came off, definitely.
One Halloween when the Elysian used to have its fabulous "Ghoul Bootie" musical event for Halloween, my husband and I cross-dressed: Me as a little punk rock dude, him as a whory-looking redhead. I was ignored, but he got plenty of attention from women, including one who started nibbling on his shoulder. I wanted to defend him!
He showed just a tad of his sweet hairy torso, as well as his hairy legs in a pair of my fishnet tights, under a little leather miniskirt. Many other fine costumes on display that night.
Halloween can even be for straight old progressives like us, especially with all the great musicians playing funk and whatever, like PK and Dara of the old Rockin Teenage Combo, singer Om, and many other of the the folks from various jam bands of the late 1990's...
Sigh. It used to make staying out late a gas.
ROBOT REVOLUTION!!! I actually MADE a robot costume this year, but it is not your ordinary robotic machine, it is a sex machine. Including fancy meters to gauge the freakiness (ranging from al gore to rick james), a lube level indicator, an orgasmeter, a foreplay timer, snuggle mode, and other options. No flesh will be shown, but it will be sexy!
I think we like a tight pair of jeans on the right boo-tay. Just today I saw this hot guy walking past Thrift World, or whatever that place is, and his pant were tight and his ass was rocking (not literally, that would render his sexy points void.) Conclusion: MEN, IF YOU HAVE A NICE ASS, THE TIGHTER PANTS THE BETTER...OH YAH.

Diabetes Health Center
Type 2 Diabetes Treatment Plan Begins With Attack on Insulin Resistance
Sept. 21, 1999 (Orlando) -- It's no secret that type 2 diabetes is a rapidly-growing problem in the United States. Type 2 diabetes is the type that affects adults and does not usually require insulin injections. In addition to treating diabetes, experts now have to grapple with how to stop and reverse this alarming trend. According to one expert, James R. Gavin III, MD, PhD, resistance of the body to the effects of insulin is the earliest manifestation of type 2 diabetes, so effective treatment begins with a plan aimed at controlling insulin resistance.
High blood sugar after eating, also known as postprandial hyperglycemia, is the first marker of insulin resistance and can be detected even in very young children, says Gavin, even before full-blown diabetes develops. Gavin, senior scientific officer at Howard Hughes Medical Institute in Chevy Chase, Md., lectured on new options in treatment of type 2 diabetes at the 51st Annual Scientific Assembly of the American Academy of Family Physicians.
Too much sugar in the blood can be measured in blood drawn 60 to 90 minutes after meals, says Gavin, but he adds that obesity is a good indicator that insulin resistance may be present. "So the first step in treatment of the patient who presents with only postprandial hyperglycemia should be diet and exercise," he says.
Type 2 diabetes, according to Gavin, is a "chronic disease that layers on complications. So treatment has to be approached the same way: layering on treatments to treat the underlying causes."
Following that approach, he says if the patient fails to lose 10-15% of body weight on a low-calorie but well-balanced diet, treatment with Precose, a medication that decreases absorption of sugars into the body from the intestine, should be initiated.
The next step in treatment should be the use of medications that act on the liver and muscle such as Glucophage and Rezulin. "Exercise jogs the muscle to overcome insulin resistance, but you can't jog the liver with exercise, so we use these drugs," he says.
"Either of these can be used in combination with insulin," says Gavin. "Insulin, it should be realized, is yet another step in the treatment of type 2 diabetes. It should not be [avoided]."

'Pieced, Pierced and Pounded' on view
Published: Sunday, August 13, 2006 at 4:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, August 13, 2006 at 12:00 a.m.
ASHEVILLE -- Woolworth Walk will present "Pieced, Pierced and Pounded," Thursday through Sept. 12. An opening reception will be held from 6 to 8 p.m. Friday in the FW Front Gallery.
Featured artists include metal artist Virginia Tocaben, seamstress and designer Myah Hubbell and mixed media artist Susan E. Ketner.
Tocaben is a graduate of Appalachian State University where she majored in metalsmithing and fiber art. She will be exhibiting her "Copper Basket Series" which gives a form and function to all the different ways copper and sometimes brass, can be combined together.
Hubbell creates art that can be worn. She is a self-taught clothing designer and seamstress who learned through costuming for a performing art troupe. She has three lines of clothing. Recyclone features modern one of a kind clothing made our of all recycled fabrics. Pauvre Moi, a high end line of women's apparel framing Pal Shazaar's playful and ethereal water color paintings into her designs.

Hey folks, i have really weird problem with my wireless connection.
I can connect to access point (manually and with manager), internet is working for about 5-7 minutes and then the connection breaks up. The only way to get it back online - put the interface down and up. Access point is WEP encrypted and there is no problems with passwords/signal because i was using it for a while without any problems.
System: Ubuntu 8.04 32bit
Wifi: Atheros 5007 with madwifi drivers

I was trying to find out what can cause such behavior, but didnt get any satisfying results. Then i noticed that the "Rx invalud nwid" rate is really big. But it doesnt explain the reason.
Please help with an advice.

Complex systems, realized by integration of several components or subsystems, pose specific problems to simulation environments. It is, in fact, desirable to simulate the complex system altogether, and not component by component, since the operation of the single part depends on the surrounding system and an early verification can prevent damages and save time for modifications. The availability of detailed and validated models of the single parts is therefore critical. This task may be difficult to achieve. In fact, in industrial applications, where a system can be a mix of different devices produced by different manufacturers, the physical device may not be accessible to the modeler for proprietary or safety concerns. Starting from this point, the idea of creating a virtual environment able to test the real single component remotely, employing simulators with remote signal processing capability, has been considered. A methodology for remote model validation is presented. The effectiveness of the approach is experimentally verified locally and remotely. For the remote testing, in particular, the physical device under test is located at the Politecnico di Milano, Italy, and the Virtual Test Bed model is located at the University of South Carolina.

We hope you'll join us this Sunday to see for yourself what we're about. Through contemporary music and practical messages, we present the ageless truths of the Bible in a format that's easy to understand, even if you've never been to church.
Together, we're striving to become the kind of church described in the Bible — a church with relevant teaching, heart-felt worship, honest friendships, constant prayer, and compassionate care for those in need. In short, we'd like to have the kind of contagious Christianity that can influence and encourage the entire community, one life at a time.
So whether you're a spiritual seeker who's just starting to ask questions about God, or a committed Christian who wants to sink the roots of your faith even deeper, you can find a home here at Bay Area Christian Church.
You'll find that this is a place where you really matter — because you matter to God.
We meet Sundays for Worship at 10:30 am.
We are conveniently located at 14550 Highway 3 between Clear Lake City Boulevard and Pineloch. From I-45, exit Clear Lake City Boulevard and travel east. Turn right on Highway 3. BACC is on the right.

Publisher's Description
The PentateuchGenesis, Exodus, Leviticus, Numbers, Deuteronomyare the vital first books in the Bible. Understanding their scope, meaning, and events is integral to understanding the whole of Scripture.
In An Introduction to the Old Testament Pentateuch, Old Testament expert Herbert Wolf offers layreaders and scholars alike a solid introduction to the Pentateuch, going deep where he needs to while still providing a graspable overview.
Wolf first addresses the overarching themes that flow through the Pentateuch, giving special attention to Moses as its author. He then addresses each book specifically, covering topics such as purpose, context, and literary structure. He also explores critical issues specific to each book, like:
Genesisthe meaning of "day" in Genesis 1:12:3; the extent of the flood; the Abrahamic covenant; the Joseph narrative
Exodusthe significance of the plagues; Passover; the date of the Exodus; the Ten Commandments
Leviticusmeaning of the sacrificial system; the roles of priests and Levites; the Day of Atonement
Numbersthe twelve tribes; forty years in the wilderness; Balaam; preparation for the Promised Land
Deuteronomythe "Shema;" covenant curses; the promise of blessing
Author Bio
Product Reviews
R. Greene4 Stars Out Of 5January 2, 2009R. GreeneWolf has authored a very well written study on the Pentateuch. This was the textbook used in Bible College class. He handles the literary, historical and apologetics of the Books properly. There was good insights offered on more prominent passages. This book is written technically without being so scholarly as to limited the ability and enjoyment of reading of Moses' works. A very good start on studying the Pentateuch.

Exactly what I was hoping for...true burlap weave, unlined so the fabric is see through, excellent quality, and bronze grommets go perfectly with bronze rods. Ironed them on the carpeted floor...yes, got burlap fuzzies everywhere, and they smell of burlap...but to be expected given they ARE burlap! The 108" panels make a grand statement in my modern room. Couldn't be happier. Added some drapery weights on the corners so they hang straight.
These curtains are wonderful. They have some sheerness to them but all of the sun is kept out. I think you can see in from the street a bit - i.e. onywhere there is some sort of source light available. I like the look in my Den and I'm thinking about getting two more curtains to make my pull backs look a bit like a sweetheart neckline. I would recommend these and I think anyone would be happy with the quality. I am. :)
These are nice. I ordered four panels for my large picture window. They're dark, but they let in a lot of like. The quality is good. Very good seams. Love them, they are exactly what I wanted.
Love the burlap .Easy to hang.Has the natural smell of burlap.Wonderful find.
I do love the curtains but they shed a lot of burlap 'dust' when you slide them back and forth on the curtain rod. A bit of a bummer but they look great so I'll deal with the mess.
In addition to being a bit more translucent than they appear on the website, there is a strong chemical odor for the first few weeks.

Avocado Paste Sandwich
Total Time
Prep 3 mins
Cook 0 mins
We have an avocado tree and I make these sandwiches for myself all the time. My 16 month old does not like avocados and this is the only way he'll eat them. There is a variety that tastes very buttery and my grandmother used to call the avocado "poor man's butter" because she would use it on bread instead of butter when times were hard. By itself the paste is an excellent first food for baby.
Ingredients Nutrition
- 1 slice avocado
- 2 slices whole wheat bread (toasted or untoasted slices whatever you fancy)
- 1 lime (optional)
- 1 pinch salt (optional)
- Smash avocado on a plate with a fork.
- Spread between two pieces of bread.
- Serve.
- Omit the bread and the paste alone makes a good first baby food.
- If I'm packing this for lunch sometimes I'll rub the avocado with a cut lime before making the paste.
- For the adults we add a pinch of salt. Baby/toddler - no salt.
Most Helpful
Thank you for posting this simple recipe and useful information from your Grandmother. Living in a climate where avacados do not grow, and can at times be pricey, I am not aware of all the things they can be used for other than in guacamole. I had never even heard of an avacado until I was about 13. I did eat this on whole wheat bread and loved it!
I've made something similar, but I add a slice of provalone cheese and use Spike seasoning instead of salt.
I loved it. I added a pinch of garlic powder and onion powder. Thanks for a great idea.

After working steadily since he was resettled in 2009, Robert is currently working part time while studying aviation at Georgia Tech, building on his work experience at an airport in Uganda.
Robert Bukenya, a successful refugee job seeker from Congo, explains how and why to sell yourself in a job interview in the great video you can watch at the end of this post.
Thanks to Cafe Clarkston (GA) for sharing it.You likely repeat this advice over and over in job readiness classes and client meetings. It will be much more convincing explained by a peer. (And a very charming, well-spoken one, at that.)
Consider showing this video in your job readiness class or one-on-one client coaching sessions.

Source: Sabbath: Restoring the Sacred Rhythm of Rest
Sometimes, you cannot say it better than a someone else. Today's Labor Day, and before it's over, I want to share with you what our friends over at Jobs For Life shared today. It really touched my heart as I contemplated what those who've gone before us have won so that our labor would be good rather than exploited. Good labor is what God made us for doing in the six days between Sabbaths: a useful vocation that accomplishes good in us and by our hands.
Lauren Mitchell over at our employment program Cafe Clarkston works hard to this end every day, and I'll be sure to share about some more lives changed as a result of her work and that of her great volunteers. Here's a picture of Lauren hard at work restoring families to the dignity of employment (in the middle):
Labor Day is today – Monday.
Most people look forward to this holiday as a time to enjoy their families, go to lakeside picnics, cookouts and baseball games. Unfortunately however, most Mondays are often not a day that elicits smiles and joy. In offices and workplaces across the nation, on a "normal" Monday, it is common to hear a little grumbling about Monday morning blues. If you're like me, you often long for more weekend and less "week".
But, as with the gospel, we often forget just how good we have it.
In fact, for the first hundred years of America's existence, our great grandparents would have normally put in a 50-70 hour workweek. Back then a 40-hour workweek was a luxury. By the late 1800's, our country was wrought with strife over poor working conditions, low pay, long hours and child labor.
But then the Central Labor Union and the Knights of Labor (isn't that an awesome name?) got involved. As a result of various strikes and protests, reforms began to take place. On September 5, 1882, the first "Labor Day" was held as 10,000 workers took unpaid time off from their jobs to parade from New York's City Hall and picnic at Union Square.
Because of labor reforms over the next fifty years, in 1938 a more stable and enjoyable balance of life was put into place with the 40-hour week, with weekends and holidays off, higher wages, and many other benefits that improve our quality of life.
Those workers from over a century ago cherished the meaning of labor and the dignity that work brought. They weren't protesting work, rather they were celebrating it. Today, Labor Day "constitutes a yearly national tribute to the contributions workers have made to the strength, prosperity, and well-being of their country." It is a day we celebrate healthy work.
It is also a day we celebrate the fulfilling of Proverbs 11:10 – "when the righteous prosper, the city rejoices." If you haven't heard author and speaker Amy Sherman speak about this passage, that is your Labor Day homework assignment – to listen and to do.
As we celebrate today, let us also think on the 18 million unemployed and underemployed people in America who can't celebrate work…yet. And let us set our minds to making sure that next year, on the next Labor Day, they too have reason to celebrate
-Ava Barlow, Jobs for Life volunteer
Did you do something this weekend to celebrate? We want to celebrate with you! Tell us about it!]]>
Henri Nouwen was a thinker and writer who, among other things, had much to say on the subject of Solitude. Here's a good word from him:
― Henri J.M. Nouwen, Reaching Out: The Three Movements of the Spiritual Life
We are thankful for all those of our volunteers who also extend God's welcome to new families, and the hundreds of financial supporters who make it possible for us to provide for those families' well-being, education and employment. We are often reminded of the Bible verse Jacob cites in the video, Philippians 4:13 (New International Version) "I can do everything through him who gives me strength."
May you find the strength you need for all that which lies before you this week!

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has decided to push its toughest enforcement measures for its new fall-protection rule back to March 15, 2013, according to a memo released on Tuesday by the U.S. Department of Labor.
Two things stand out about the trench collapse that killed Kenneth Stafford: neither OSHA nor the workers comp system got involved.
Like other contractors who comply with OSHA fall standards, I've had to ask myself: how am I supposed to compete with crews that don't use fall protection?
If there's one thing that gets swept aside in the constant rush to put out daily fires and meet long-term deadlines, it's our ability to educate and train our teams – rookies and veterans alike – on an ongoing basis.
As a roofer, I make my living climbing up and down ladders every day. So I was surprised to learn that ladder safety violations consistently rank among the top ten cited by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA); third among specialty contractors, and seventh overall among OSHA's...
I know it's hard to stop scrambling in this business, with the constant crush to line up work, get the work done, and then get paid when you finish. But if there's ever a time to pause and focus, it's when it comes to assuring job-site safety for your crews, subs, and suppliers. Through these...

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) is focusing its attention on what some call the 'Big 4' causes of jobsite injuries and deaths: falls, trench and excavation accidents, electrocutions, and workers being struck by or caught by equipment. In addition to the focus on these...

Fond du Lac Ave. art project; flamenco guitar performance
Ties that bind
Fond du Lac Ave. ties Milwaukee's downtown to the northwest side of the city. And the In:Site temporary public art project to be on display along the avenue from 17th to 37th streets hopes to tie together the people of those neighborhoods and the rest of the city. "Art on Fond du Lac" features thought-provoking installations that put a spotlight on the area and the needs of the people who call it home. Included in the projects are a sculptural urban greenhouse by George Jones; a tribute to Mattiebelle Woods, the first lady of Milwaukee's black press; and a painting on the avenue itself (at its intersection with Locust St.) by Reggie Baylor. »Read Full Article

Conor Oberst brings intensity to Pabst Theater
Describing the voice of Conor Oberst, many people have used the word "quaver," even after the indie singer-songwriter toned down the teenage trembling, as a 34-year-old man should.
At the Pabst Theater Saturday night, however, the word remained suitable for Oberst's live concert. His very body seemed to vibrate as if his nervous system was dosing his skin with extra voltage: Not enough to convulse him; enough to generate a low hum of surplus energy beneath his performance. »Read Full Article

Moose in Yellowstone are one of four subspecies of moose (Alces alces shirasi) in North America, and are found in forested areas and willow flats from southeastern British Columbia to northern Colorado. They are better adapted to survival in deep snow than other ungulates in Greater Yellowstone. Except during the rut, moose are usually found alone or in small family groups. This behavior, and their use of habitat where they are often well concealed, impedes accurate estimates of population size and distribution. Learn More: Moose Description and Population...

|Re: Why are we now downloading source packages when building the sources ?
|Sat, 05 Apr 2008 16:32:02 GMT
I'm not sure exactly what you are seeing, but since we started using xbean the build requires the source jars of the modules with the components in them. I can think of 2 recent changes that might affect this.... - build changes for 1.5.2 release - new CI server that pushes snapshots frequently. Also maybe there's a new maven eclipse plugin that has different behavior? I have no actual idea what might have caused this change, but I don't think its needing source jars in the build since they have been required for a long time. thanks david jencks On Apr 5, 2008, at 1:10 AM, Emmanuel Lecharny wrote: > Hi guys, > > it's now a couple of days I see that when I try to build the > project, a hell lot of dowloads are done.

Oakland's Braden pitches perfect game
Published: Sunday, May 9, 2010 at 6:44 p.m.
Last Modified: Sunday, May 9, 2010 at 6:44 p.m.
OAKLAND, Calif. — Dallas Braden pitched the Athletics' first perfect game in 42 years and just the second in franchise history, dazzling against the majors' hottest team in a 4-0 victory over the Tampa Bay Rays on Sunday.
Braden threw his arms in the air after Gabe Kapler grounded out to shortstop for the final out. The closest the Rays got to a hit was Jason Bartlett's liner to third leading off the game. Evan Longoria tried to bunt against Braden leading off the fifth, drawing boos from the small crowd.
It was the majors' first perfect game since Mark Buehrle did it for the White Sox against the Rays on July 23, and the second no-hitter this season after Colorado's Ubaldo Jimenez pulled it off against the Braves in Atlanta on April 17.
Braden pitched the A's first perfect game since Hall of Famer Jim "Catfish" Hunter's gem on May 8, 1968, against the Minnesota Twins. Only 6,298 were there to witness it.
Sunday's crowd at the Coliseum wasn't much better: 12,228.

The Otago region has had the largest percentage decrease in
the number of regular smokers, according to regional Census
results released today.
The Otago region had 7359 fewer smokers in 2013 than it did
in 2006, a decline of 25.6 per cent.
The proportion of adults in Otago who regularly smoke fell to
14.0 per cent, down from 19.5 per cent in 2006, Census
general manager Sarah Minson said.
Among people in the region aged 15-19, the proportion of
regular smokers fell from 15.7 per cent in 2006 to 8.2 per
cent last year. This represents a decrease of 1167 people.
In line with national trends, the number of people who
identified with a religion declined in Otago since the last
In 2013, 11.0 per cent fewer people said they had a religion,
and 28.3 per cent more people checked the 'no religion' box.
In terms of employment, the biggest industries in Otago were
retail trade, which accounted for 11.0 per cent of the
employed population, and health care and social assistance,
which accounted for 10.3 per cent.

Perhaps this could be attributed as an unintended consequence
of the continual rates rises well above the rate of inflation
that the people of Otago have been subjected to for the last
ten years, when the populations disposable income has finally
reached a tipping point and things are having to be weaned?

Author Stephen King
Author Stephen King
Stephen King, to put it mildly, likes to scare people — and millions of people agree that he does it brilliantly. He's the popular author of Carrie, Cujo, Misery, The Shining, The Dead Zone, and Pet Sematary — all of which have been made into movies — and many more; even the novels he's written under pseudonyms have been hits.
King's latest book is Gerald's Game, which opens with an bedroom bondage game gone wrong. This interview originally aired on July 22 and 23, 1992.
