upon getting my dress and trying it on, while driving to the store my maid of honor and i desided it may be fun to pull a little prank on my fiance. we talked to the girl that was helping me (same girl as always 😀 she has been incredible!) and she loved the idea that we came up with.
she found a dress that fit me pretty much perfectly… just needs some adjusting in the top… lots of beading, a long train, found a big poofy veil with many layers. and we took photos like it was my dress.
now two of my bridesmaids couldnt make it out to get the dress with me and has asked that i take photos and send them to them. well i did alright, i sent them photos of me in the other dress… and oops i may have included all of the guys in this email "by accident" including my fiance!
now my bridesmaids do know what my actual dress looks like, and i let the groomsmen, and all of the girls know what was going on ahead of time. we all want to see if my fiance freaks out thinking i messed up big time emailing him photos of my dress.
mean i know… but he's been asking too many questions about my dress. what better way to get a different dress in his head… think i can go with this til the wedding? plus i wouldnt do this unless i knew he could handle it. and its about time i got one over on him, he is always getting me 😀

"I am also responsible for providing the livelihood of a large number of people." Angela continued, "If I sold Heavenly Abode to Morris, the staff would be unemployed with no place to live. Many of the staff here have literally worked for the Angelfish family for generations."
"Really?" I replied. "That is amazing."
"Oh, I know. In this day and age it is practically unheard of--but a few--like Hettie and Clarence, for example--have been servants of my family for years.
Clarence's great, great, ever so great grandfather was the friend and partner of my great, great, ever so great grandfather when this country estate was built, and Hettie and her family worked for my old Aunt Minerva at her country home until Aunt Minerva died and her home was sold to a developer and destroyed--then Hettie came here to work for me."
"Then Hettie would be familiar with the harp? Aunt Minerva's harp in your guest bedroom, I mean?"
"Of course. In fact I believe she took some music lessons using that very harp when she was a child--since we Angelfish always treat our servants more like family than like mere employees. That's probably why they stay with us for generations!"

Stahls' Hotronix 9 x 12 Craft Heat Press Review
The Stahls' Hotronix 9 x 12 heat press – a small craft machine built for the home, hobby or small business user. And in this review we're going to help you decide if it's right for you!
This US made heat press is very affordable – in fact, it is probably the cheapest American made heat press that you can buy! It is relatively small at 9 x 12 inches, so it will fit in your craft room and won't be a hassle to move around or store away if you don't have a dedicated area for it.
And some might say that it is a heat press for women, given that it is totally pink.
Lay your eyeballs on it in this video from The Rhinestone World.
American made heat press machines are superior to their cheaper Chinese made counterparts. The US machines are for those who really want the best heat press money can buy, who are using their machine for business purposes and depend on it working day in and day out. Usually they're very expensive, however, this cheap heat press for crafts or small business makes the Hotronix brand accessible to everyone.
Let's take a look at it.
Features Of The Hotronix 9×12 Craft Press
This is a clamshell heat press with 'over the center' pressure adjustment. This means you are going to get an even pressure across the entirety of the heat platen which is important in order to get a heat transfer that will survive many washes.
It is also a small heat press, excellent for storage and transport, but that doesn't mean you can't do large heat transfers with it. If you watch the first video in the 'projects' section below, you will see that you can still do transfers that are larger than the size of the press. It is simply a matter of doing them in a couple of stages! But if you think you're going to be doing a lot of larger transfers, rather than small ones, you should think about getting at least a 15 x 15 inch heat press.
Other features:
- A non-stick coated heat platen – though you should still use a teflon sheet when you are pressing for extra protection. The coating will help you clean the machine if you do have an accident.
- It is a very light weight heat press at 35 pounds. It's easy to move around the home, or even to load her up in the car for transport elsewhere if necessary. Some people use this machine for trade shows and events.
- Pink, pink, pink! It's hard to miss, it's bright pink! The coating is a scratch resistant baked on powder coat, because you don't want to ruin that look, do you?
- Like every other press, this machine has a digital time and temperature read out (I'm not sure what the alternative would be. A ticking clock?)
- This machine features what is called 'over the center pressure adjustment,' which basically means 'you're going to get a great even pressure.'
Technical Specifications
Here are the technical facts and figures:
- Weight: 35 pounds – the perfect weight if you don't like lifting heavy things!
- Dimensions when closed: 12.75 x 17.25 x 12.5 inches – one of the more compact heat press machines
- Volts: Standard US 120 volts / 6.5 amps
- Temperature range: 205 – 425℉
- Time range: 0 – 999 seconds
- Warranty: Stahls' machines come with a limited 1 year labor and parts warranty
- Thickness of substrates: You can press appropriate items up to ¾ of an inch thick
- Tech support: Free lifetime support
- UL/ULC/CE/RoHS approved
- NRTLCO approved
What Can You Press Onto?
There are many items (up to ¾ of an inch thick) that you can press onto with this machine. Let me name some of them for you:
- T-shirts (obviously!)
- Drink coozies/coolies
- Baby onesies and children's clothing
- Sweaters and sweatpants
- Bathing suits (see video below!)
- Tote bags
- Metal (such as dog tags or license plates)
- Wood (like wooden plaques)
And you will be able to press all of your standard heat transfer vinyl and other ink transfers or rhinestones with this heat press. Just be sure to follow your transfer manufacturer's instructions for the best result.
What This Heat Press Does Not Do
This machine:
- Does not take attachment heat presses (like a mug press attachment, for example)
- Cannot switch out or use interchangeable heat platens
- Cannot press caps
- Doesn't have a digital pressure reading like some Hotronix presses – with a bit of use you will learn where to set your pressure (light, medium or heavy pressure, depending on the transfer requirements)
Who Is This Craft Press For?
This is a heat press for women (merely because it is pink), and especially for women who are actively into their crafts. This might include pressing vinyl or ink transfers onto clothing, or onto any of the other substrates listed above.
This machine would make for the perfect beginner heat press or entry-level heat press. It is very simple to learn how to use it – simpler than learning how to use cutting machines anyway! If you are thinking of starting a t-shirt or kids clothing business, the low price and high quality are a win-win.
Small heat press machines are good for putting labels, branding or sizing onto your garments as well. These features on a t-shirt are usually very small, so it is easier to have a little machine to do them with.
Why Should You Buy The Hotronix 9 x 12 Craft Press?
The reasons for buying a Stahls' heat press are almost too many to list, but let me have a go:
- Stahls' are all about heat press machines – this is their wheelhouse. They do research and development in order to bring you the best heat press they can, and are always working on ways to innovate and better their products.
- Therefore they manufacture a very high quality heat press. They are designed and built in the USA in order to be the best heat press machines. Even with this craft and hobby press which is a lot cheaper than all their other machines, the quality is not lacking.
- Stahls' machines tend to last longer and work harder than cheaper foreign designed and built machines.
- The adhesion of the transfer pressed with this machine will be superior to those pressed with inferior machines. Hotronix machines tend to give a more even temperature and pressure across the whole heat platen. This gives a better transfer. They call it 'edge-to-edge heat and pressure.'
- Stahls' have what is known as their 'craft corner' on Stahls' TV. On it you will find instructions on how to use this heat press, along with heaps of project ideas. These videos are very well presented and are so helpful – they are a fantastic added resource. Yes, you can still watch them if you are buying a cheap heat press, but it's nice to watch videos with the heat press you have, isn't it?
- Their heat press machines come with a solid one year full warranty.
- Their products also come with readable and understandable instruction manuals written by native English speakers – something you cannot always take for granted!
- Stahls' have their free 'Blue Ribbon Support'. There are live technicians 24 hours a day, 7 days a week, 365 days a year, ready to support you if you have any problems. Amazing!
- You should buy it for the prestige factor! It is way cooler to have a Hotronix press than it is to have a budget press!
These reasons are just the tip of the iceberg as to why you should buy Stahls', to give you an idea of the added benefits. We could delve further into all of these points and find more advantages and reasons to buying your heat press from this company, but I think that will be enough.
Projects With The Hotronix 9 x 12 Craft Press
In this video from Stahls', you will see how you can still do a large heat transfer onto a t-shirt with this small heat press – just do it in two presses!
Another video from Stahls', this time pressing a heat transfer onto a tote bag with glitter HTV – so cool!
Decorating a bathing suit with the Hotronix 9 x 12 craft press! It's little but it can do it all.
And a baby onesie with glitter HTV:
Man, after reading all this amazing information about this machine, how can you resist buying?! I want to buy three it's that great! I'm totally sold on this machine, I think it is definitely one of the best (if not THE best) small heat press machine in its price range. When you buy Stahls' Hotronix you are getting top quality machines. And with the price this press is, you are getting amazing value.
If you believe the size is right for you, and you don't mind the pinkness of the machine, don't hesitate. The sooner you order, the sooner it will arrive, and the sooner you can start on all those great projects!

"You can't get there from here..." or can you?
2 comments:
Hi Kate,ReplyDelete
Thanks for your response on Books and Such and for dropping by to my blog. I have had limited support but I think that I have been my own worst enemy too. The disappointment of being rejected at the last minute from a publisher was very difficult to take, as it was at the end of a six month journey with them. I haven't had the heart to send it out again and I have questioned the whole project. It's on the shelf for the moment and after having a period of self-doubt and a sense of failure I am now trying to be nice to myself. That's been surprisingly hard to do. Having permission to not be perfect is something I am trying to take hold of.
@sallynapthali It was a joy to drop by your blog and read your posts. I agree with you that self-care is a super important skill to practice. One of the most helpful things someone once told me was to: 1) write down the lies I am believing (for example, "I have to be perfect") and then 2) write down how they affect me and make me feel and finally 3) write down evidence for why they are just lies and not truth that I should be accepting. What are some of the other kindnesses you practice toward yourself? I made a list of nurturing activities that help me feel and stay healthy such as exercise (I love going for walks in nature), healthy baked goods with a hot cup of tea or coffee, and best of all investing in the friends that I love and trust. Building each other up takes vulnerability but is so worth it.Delete

I know this because hospitals and outpatient facilities have "prompt pay" discounts or cash-pay prices that are often less than the negotiated rates. That's why I argue for bundled pricing in this article here. Bundled rates are often the least expensive rate for the consumer. This facility, a member of the Free Market Medical Association, bundles the pricing for their spine care surgery center.
TRENDING ON OUR SITE: How to express sympathy without receiving a malpractice lawsuit
It's beneficial to the doctor and facility to accept a bundled rate as well, because the consumer pays it directly to the provider without the unnecessary insurance middle man. Remember, the consumer with a high deductible health plan, which now make up more than 50% of employer-provided health insurance plans according to the Kaiser Family Foundation, is paying this money out of pocket regardless.
So it's better for the patient to pay out a lesser amount toward a discounted bundled pricing package than the out-of-pocket negotiated rate. Whatever the consumer spends, whether it's in network or out, can still apply to their deductible.
How are claims data helpful?
So we've pointed out the fallacy that is the negotiated rate. But in an effort to provide price transparency to consumers, companies attempt to determine the negotiated rate based on previous claims paid by insurance companies.
In other words, they look at the claims' consumers make to insurance companies, how much the insurance company pays and how much is left to the consumer. This information is then made available to the consumer in the form of averages. The averages are based on claims data.
However, this does not provide actionable information for the consumer. In this example, the consumer can see what many people have paid in the past in various health plans. But it's only a prediction of what they will pay when they need treatment.
HOT TOPIC: Top 11 gripes physicians have with patients
Just as you don't want a prediction of what you'll pay for a house or car, knowing an average healthcare price isn't actionable. Does it provide education? Sure. But when paying thousands of dollars out of pocket before a deductible is met, I'd prefer actionable data over education that leaves me wanting.
Simply put, we're focusing on the wrong thing here. The negotiated rate isn't the best price. So why bother averaging claims data to leave the consumer paying the more expensive negotiated rate? Stop focusing on approximations and encourage providers to show the discounted bundled prices they already have in place for self-pay patients without insurance.

Violence between Buddhists and Rohingya Muslims in Burma's Rakhine region erupted in June after the alleged rape and murder of a Buddhist girl by Muslim men. The scale of violence has led to scores of deaths and the mass displacement of tens of thousands of people. After a state of emergency was declared in the province, the entry of Burma's security forces lent another dimension to this conflict. Amnesty International said in early August that Rakhine Buddhists, together with security forces, purposefully meted out devastating violence against the Muslim minority.
But not only are the Rohingya a disenfranchised people, they are dark-skinned Muslims with little relevance, representation and significance to anyone. Unable to deal with a matter the much-vaunted Nobel peace laureate Aung San Suu Kyi has not endorsed, the western world has tiptoed around the issue. Aung San Suu Kyi's silence is evidently an attempt to placate her constituency ahead of general elections in 2015, and to criticize her now would be like admonishing Nelson Mandela in the run-up to the 1994 election in South Africa. But unlike South Africa in the 1990s, Burma is not on the verge of some tremendous political shakeup; while the Rohingya are being sacrificed as collateral damage in the greater project of the democratization of Burma, Aung San Suu Kyi is missing an extraordinary opportunity to live up to her reputation.
Meanwhile, in that parallel universe known as the "Muslim world", the Rohingyas have joined Palestine, Kashmir, Iraq and Afghanistan on the list of flagship Muslim causes. In a region that is home to the world's greatest concentration of Muslims, the delayed reaction of neighboring Indonesia, Malaysia and Brunei is startling. Last week, Bangladesh, another Muslim country, ordered three NGOs to stop providing food and other humanitarian assistance to Rohingyas in the border area, claiming it did not want to encourage more asylum seekers to its shores. Already 40,000 unregistered Rohingyas live in makeshift camps in Bangladesh, and according to the UN Refugee Agency, the latest violence will result in a greater influx of people – whether Bangladesh likes it or not.
While Burma's Muslim neighbors struggle to respond, Saudi Arabia has thrown money at the problem. It has fallen to Turkey to act decisively by further extending its newly found benevolence to the Islamic world. As images of the Turkish prime minister's wife sobbing as she witnessed the effects of the violence herself begin to be passed around online – further cementing the Rohingya cause to the long list of Muslims' suffering – Muslim prayers have bemoaned the global silence as proof of the grand conspiracy against Islam. And yet little is being done by Muslims to actually reverse the treatment of their purported brethren themselves.

If you plan to hire a professional genealogist or conduct genealogical research by yourself, you will have to contact the elders in the family. Remember the first step:
Then you will have to find some information at home, and also from your relatives that may have kept old documents. The following documents are useful for the genealogical investigation.
Family Tree and Family Histories (unfortunately these documents are rare and most families do not have them)
Birth, marriage, or death certificates
Family Books: Known as "Libro de familia" in Spain, they have different names in Latin America like "Libreta de Matrimonio"
ID Cards: Driver licenses in the United States. That will be for the Spanish citizens "D.N.I (Documento Nacional de Identidad)" for recent generations and "Cedulas Personales" for the ancestors starting the late XIX century. In Latin America they are called "Cedula de Identidad".
School records and Professional Certifications
Baby books and birth announcements
Military records (Cartillas militares)
Legal papers, deeds, wills. For the ancestors that did not make a will, the notary document for the distribution of the inheritance (División de Herencias).
Communion or Funeral cards (estampitas religiosas)
Emigration and Naturalization documents (only in the Americas)
Family bibles (mostly in North America)
All documents are important, even diaries, journals, personal letters, and postcards can give us a key piece of information. Just to give you an example I was researching one of my wife's ancestors, an immigrant from Italy. I found a wall and was unable to find any information about this person until we discovered an old document that mentioned his ancestral city (Paola, Cosenza). With that little piece of information we were able to document 5 generations for this ancestor until the early 1700s.


text: To Replace Expired Antivirus Software, you have to Click on the pop-up message in the lower right-hand corner if you get one that states your antivirus subscription is about to expire. You need to follow the steps on-screen. After that, remove the antivirus software completely if the subscription is expensive or if you do not want to go with the same company. To do this go to the Control Panel, you must pick "Add or Remove Programs" and look for the antivirus software. You can sometimes remove it with choosing "Uninstall" from the Start Menu. To do this, you have to go to "Start," "Programs" and pick your current antivirus program to see if there is an uninstall command in this menu. Then, add a new antivirus program once the old one is removed from your computer. Next, consider using AVG, CA, Norton, TrendMicro and McAfee virus programs. Forth, download the updates immediately and restart your computer. You need to run a virus scan. You must make sure and set it up so that it will scan your computer every week automatically.

…TWO girls in the tub!! It's the little things in our party of six that get me excited! Last night's excitement came from being able to put Cubs 3 and 4 in the tub at the same time! Cub 4 is a very good sitter now, so on the eve of her 7 month birthday, I graduated her from the individual tub to the big tub with her sister! It cuts bath time (including undressing and dressing) almost in half! Cub 4 had a great time playing with Cub 3's Dora toys and duck, but Cub 3 was not really feeling like sharing last night. She is in that stage where everything belongs to her even if it's not hers – she just has to be holding it at the time. Last night it was "My water!"and "My Dora!" Tonight was a little better, but I've added purchasing new tub toys on my to-do list for this weekend.
The new school year means new specs for Cub 1. Here's a picture of him in one of his new frames with Transition lenses.
I have one more day of the math workshop! Yay! It has been an awesome week, and I hope to be able to use a lot of what we learned this year. The county I work for tends to pay big bucks for all of these workshops and new material, but they have us test the students in the same old way. Then, we tend to go back to teaching in the same old way. We'll see what's in store for this year next week. Maybe they'll prove me wrong. Within this workshop, the participants were put into three groups, and we have been rotating between three presenters. These presenters are top-knotch experts in the area of using hands-on problem solving in math. One presenter was the 2008 Teacher of the Year for the state of Massachusettes. In other words, they know their stuff. So, in my group there is one lady – let's call her Intoleranta – who disagrees with EVERYTHING that any of the presenters has to say if it's not what she believes. Have you ever had to deal with someone like Intoleranta?? If not, maybe you're that person in your circle of friends! Lol! Just kidding! Seriously, she's just one of those people who refuses to think outside of the box. In Intoleranta's little world, her way is the only way that makes sense, and if you don't see it her way she refuses to listen anymore; she just shuts down. It has been driving me crazy all week and I just feel bad for her students. We should always be willing to see a situation from a different perspective than our own.
Almost forgot! Please say a special prayer for my friend, Amanda, in PA. Her mom is very ill and we need everyone interceding on her behalf. Thanks!
Peace and blessings!

Lest you think that I am a great crafter, and in the interest of humility, here is the project that I have been working on.
Do you see the problem? Ummm, yes, that's right, the waistband reaches to his ARMPITS! I was pretty frustrated with this! These are the second pair of pants that I've made from this pattern. The first pair were even more than these. So I went down a size, and followed the pattern EXACTLY. This is the size that is supposed to be for 13-17 pound babies. Luke probably is between 15-16 pounds right now, so he's at the bigger end of that range. The waist is a bit too wide, but the crotch depth is just huge! I think something must be wrong with the pattern, because he will definitely be wider than the waist before he's long enough for the length to fit him. And he's a long, lean baby. I'm pretty disappointed about these because they were turning out cute, except for the fact that they don't fit. I'm thinking about undoing the waistband and chopping off some of the length. What do some of you more experienced sewers think? Will that work?

Set your service innovation on fire!
How speeding up your service innovation lifecycle helps to innovate faster, safer - and why this will make your services stick!
In the world of tourism, customers are in the center of the stage. With markets becoming increasingly transparent, customer experience has become a crucial factor of differentiation, making innovation in this area indispensable.
This talk will show how service providers can speed up their innovation process and make it more reliable based on the iterative development cycle of build – measure – learn. With a metaphoric comparison to the world of rock climbing, the talk will clarify the working principle of this service design approach using short iterations of user research, ideation, prototype development and validation by user testing. Attendees will learn why this process is a valuable alternative to relying on predictability and the honing of known processes to mitigate risk and go home with an incentive to try it themselves.

When I was a kid, I used to sleep in the first floor in a room I shared with my sister. Right outside my window, was this huge maramalli (tree Jasmine). Often our entire room would be filled with the strong smell of the Jasmine. Then, I was not observant enough to appreciate it. My head was full of thoughts and I was too preoccupied to appreciate what I had. I used to look at the tree on days I couldn't fall asleep (I've been a chronic insomniac).
After I went to Pilani, I actually missed the tree. There was no reassuring presence outside my window. Like most empty nesters, my parents remodeled the house and my bedroom became part of an office space. I never got to wake up to the tree again.
When we bought our house, I planted bamboos in the backyard so that they'd grow and I'll get to see green whenever I wake up(my bedroom faces the backyard). The bamboos grew beautifully and they offer me a very calming view every single day.
My fantasy, however was to have creepers. I'd placed them by the front of the house, but last year there was a huge insect attack and I had to cut the creepers. Funnily, it would always grow towards my neighbors balcony, maybe because they used to clean it very often and the water from that drain motivated it to grow that way.
Three years after we've moved, finally, today I noticed this malli in full bloom outside my library window. I've not been using my work space in a long time, so when I sat down today, I was pleasantly surprised by the fragrance of one of my favorite flowers. This gives me hope for better days to come and reminds me of cycles that are never tired of repeating.

We started our Easter Eve with an egg hunt at the care center where grandpa is at. It was the most complicated but interesting hunt ever. Each kid had a sack with a number on it. All of the eggs outside were also numbered. The kids could only take the eggs with their number on them (there was supposed to be 6 total). All our kids (Howdens and Binggelis) were in the 112-116ish range. Molly is pretty good at reading numbers, but it was quite the challenge. Jack just wandered and stepped on the plastic eggs. The good news is that the egg hunt lasted quite some time which meant the residents of the care center actually got to enjoy it for more than 30 seconds. The bad news was that in the end, we were only able to find 5 of our 6, so Grandma Judy tried to convince us to take some other number, but Ross said we were just perpetuating the problem and Molly wouldn't do it because she could see the numbers weren't hers. Oh well.
Humpty Dumpty came to our house.
We dyed him and his relatives. Several never made it to the dying table. Several more never made it to the dried-and-stickered part.
We finally had 7 scary monster eggs that looked kind of cute . . .
. . . until Jack and Molly attacked. Jack is crazy and Molly just wanted to "crack" the eggs to see what was inside. I let her. They started to stink. All 7 went in the trash within a few minutes of these photos.
In other new, I realized my debit card was lost today and that I hadn't had it since Thursday. I called the Smiths in Murray and they had it. That makes 2 times in the last couple of weeks that I have lost it and some wonderful good soul found it and didn't do anything foul with it. I must be doing something right.

Recorders and Players
Recorder Player Problems? Ask a Technician for Answers ASAP
Hi, I'm Nathan.Sorry to hear that you're having trouble with this but I'll do my best to help you.
After you did the recording, did you "finalize" the disc?
You are seeing an automated ad by the site for a call or remote session. It is not sent by me. This is optional and may be ignored if you wish.
Okay I thought you were recording to dvd. Go into the panasonic menu and factory reset the unit, then try to record again please and see if it will play back.
You're welcome!
Reset won't hurt anything.
If you're playing a disc ok, then the problem is not with the connections.
Do you have an aerial connection to the recorder?
If you don't have a connection to it, as I had suspected, this is the root of the problem.The panasonic cannot record anything if it does not have an input signal. The hdmi connection to your tv is only an output. The panasonic has its own internal freeview tuner, and needs an aerial connection for that to work.
You can connect the aerial to the RF input on the recorder, then another coax cable from the rf out to the tv.
You will need to run the channel scan/search function in the panasonic menu, and then it should record properly at that point.
Thank you for the info,
the channel scan is what you needed to do, and it sounds like you've accomplished that, so hopefully it will record now.
From the player to the tv you also want either scart or hdmi.
Thanks Jack,
you should be able to bring up the Guide, then use the arrow buttons to highlight a future show then press record.
That is great news, Jacki, glad to hear that the recording feature is working for you!
My goal is to give you the best experience possible! I hope I have earned a 5 star rating! Please remember to rate my service by selecting the 5 stars at the top of the screen before you leave today. If you need more assistance, please use the reply box and let me know.
Thank you, ***** ***** a nice day,

Polygenesizing with Don DeLillo
The Omega Point of DeLillo's philosophical pondering is one concerned with the trajectory of consciousness and the information that makes up our experience of life as individuals.
Time plays another major role in this philosophical investigation. Which time do we inhabit? Is our time subjective? Can we escape it?
He's received a heavy handed amount of criticism for his newer, slimmer novels, but with Omega Point, DeLillo proves that he is as sharp and talented as ever. For me, this book definitely goes amongst the top of his collection (not to mention, a stunning piece of digitally transcendental literature).
"I looked out into blinding tides of light and sky and down toward the folded copper hills that I took to be the badlands, a series of pristine ridges rising from the desert floor in patterned alignment. Could someone be dead in there? I could not imagine this. It was too vast, it was not real, the symmetry of furrows and juts, it crushed me, the heartbreaking beauty of it, the indifference of it, and the longer I stood and looked the more certain I was that we would never have an answer."

Anyone know where I can get a good deal on one of these scales?
"And I shout that your all fakes and you should have seen the look on your face"
Larry sells them. Need I say more?
My video techniques can be found in this thread.
pricepoint has them
$60 for the hanging one
$40 for the desktop one
I don't know if that qualifies as a good deal or not...
REI has them for $60. Applies to your dividend if you are a member.
$50 for the hanging at Beyondbikes, pricematch to a decent retailer of your choice.

text: Need help here guys, in need new holster with some odd requirements. I run a lot and now that it's 100 degrees I do run at night mostly. I also carry my p3at mostly in the summer with just a very casual shorts and t-shirt or similar. Lots of times i wear shorts without belt loops and pocket holster won't work. What i want is a hip holster that is going to be strong enough to retain the gun while running. It also needs to be able to be worn without a belt. I think if the clip is strong and the gun being so light, only some good retention is needed.... TIA guys ;D

"By selecting Barack Obama as their nominee, the Democrats may have given Republicans an opening: the very qualities that inspire many fervent Obama supporters — the candidate's high-flown eloquence, his coolness factor — have also laid him open to a Nixonian backlash. Unlike many observers, I wasn't surprised at the effectiveness of the McCain "celebrity" ad. It didn't make much sense intellectually, but it skillfully exploited the resentment some voters feel toward Mr. Obama's star quality."

Apologies for the lack of blogging for the last couple of weeks. Major computer problems here. I thought it was a dodgy graphics card, so I bought a new one. I now have a different problem, but the same result: the computer reboots itself or the screen goes blank and it needs to be rebooted. This only happens when I try to do anything important of course. Sometimes it'll run for hours, but as soon as I try sending an important message rather than a "chat" one, it immediately locks up. Sometimes when it reboots there's a message about the CPU speed being wrong.
So it sounds like a more serious problem than just a graphics card. Could be the motherboard, the processor, the power supply, maybe even the memory. I'm not buying replacements for all of those just so I can swap them over and see which it is. So it's off to the repair shop on Tuesday (typical – a bank holiday just when I could do without one!) If they can't fix it then it's a new PC. And that means Vista I guess.
I'd rather have waited a few more months until they sort out all the problems with that – there are still too many Vista horror stories flying around. I'm crossing everything that the shop can sort it out.
Meanwhile I'm on my elderly laptop. It's v-e-r-y- – s-l-o-w. I've plugged in the big screen, keyboard and mouse, and installed all the essential software, so it still sort of feels like I'm using the poorly PC. Only much much slower.

hahaha, of course I'm not hiding from my children. What kind of mother would do that?
But I have never enjoyed going to the bathroom so much lately. Okay, well at least for the first minute until I start hearing the yells and screams that I am going to have to breakup when I leave that tiny quiet space.
Have you peed with a baby Bjorn on? Pretty handy if you need to go, ya know.
"3 minutes, just be good for 3 minutes so mom can go potty." Ya see I have to prep them. I believe in prepping. Before we do something that I might be worried about I explain, prep and warn of consequences. Sometimes is works, but sometimes it didn't
Like the other day at dinner it didn't and then I thought of the most awesome punishment for Luke without losing my temper (because I'm not so fond of hearing that screaming from outside when I'm peeing on the toilet). You get a motherhood gold star if you actually don't yell...I have very few of them but still try and rack them up.
I let Baylie play his favorite Super Mario Bros Wii game that he won't let her. Ya, she lost about 10 guys and then I reeled it in. Got to get creative cause sometimes time outs don't cut it.
ok , gotta run, Paisley just found me.
If you talk to me today and I seem a bit off, its because I am trying to decide if I will fall asleep standing up or just start crying.
Hope my car gets out of timeout. Its in trouble for jumping out and hitting a large metal mailbox, possibly because it was distracted by Ivy screaming. I don't know. Or just needed more sleep.
School starts in about a week and a half. Not the best time to be stranded but we are still alive. In case you are concerned, don't worry, we are watching plenty of tv over here and playing in our blow up pool. Pretty funny to see four kids (one being 80 lbs) play in a tiny blow up pool. But isn't that like classic childhood? That and popping multiple slip n slides in the summer?
Okay, now Baylie is hungry too. Back to reality.
At least I am showered with makeup on of course....priorities people.
Will you eat some chocolate for me?

Bizarre Museums
Thousands of museums in the United States document important events and valuable objects. But if it's the funny and offbeat you're after, hightail it to the Plumbing Museum, the Pencil Sharpener Museum and these other offbeat and somewhat off-kilter places.
Recreational vehicles weren't always the gas-guzzling behemoths we see barreling down the road today. At the RV Museum and Hall of Fame in Elkhart, Ind., you'll see tiny towable trailers and marvelous motorhomes dating back to the 1920s and '30s, including Mae West's 1931 Chevrolet Housecar and a 1915 Model T roadster equipped with a telescoping apartment.
Already home to unusual museums such as the Wyandot Popcorn Museum and the National Construction Equipment Museum, Ohio is about to get two more. In May, the Columbus Washboard Co., the country's only washboard manufacturing company, opens the Columbus Washboard Company Museum, and the Hocking Hills Welcome Center becomes the new home of the Pencil Sharpener Museum.
Dimly lit — for effect, not to save cash — and filled with offbeat natural-history relics, man-made curiosities, cock-eyed collections and scientific exhibits that may or may not be real, the Museum of Jurassic Technology in Culver City, Calif., tests your truth meter and tickles your fancy. Exhibits include rotting dice, a shrine to Soviet space program dogs and this pincushion possibly collected by a resident of a Los Angeles-area mobile home park.
Established to celebrate "the labor of artists whose work would be displayed and appreciated in no other forum," the three galleries operated by the Museum of Bad Art in the Boston area celebrate paintings that have "gone horribly awry in either concept or execution." Rescued from trash heaps, yard sales, thrift stores and attics, the collection now includes more than 600 works of art, all of them bad — but in a good way.
Whether it's a good hair day or a bad one, Leila Cohoon is happy to weave stories about the history of hair and take visitors through Leila's Hair Museum in Independence, Mo. The carefully coiffed collection includes locks snipped from the manes of celebrities, 400 framed Victorian hair wreaths and more than 2,000 pieces of antique brooches, bracelets, necklaces and other jewelry made entirely with, or containing, human hair.
Open from May through September, the Kansas Barbed Wire Museum in LaCrosse, Kan., celebrates the spiky invention that allowed cattle ranchers to tame the Wild West with a cheap and effective way to restrain animals. Along with a crow's nest built entirely of barbed wire, the museum displays at least 2,000 varieties of the metal wiring also known as "the devil's rope."
Located, appropriately enough, in Watertown, Mass., the Plumbing Museum's collection snakes back to the 18th century and includes antique sinks, toilets, water closets and bathtubs as well as historic tools of the trade. If you're curious about water mains, overflows and septic tanks, this museum devoted to piping technology through the ages will help flush out the answers.
If the Oscar Getz Museum of Whiskey History could talk, it would definitely slur its words. Tracing American whiskey history back to the 1700s, this Bardstown, Ky., museum displays liquor memorabilia ranging from moonshine stills and antique bottles to Abraham Lincoln's liquor license and the hatchet used by temperance crusader Carrie Nation.
When he's not out removing unwanted critters from private homes, pest-control expert Michael Bohdan is tending to his Cockroach Hall of Fame and Museum in Plano, Texas. The museum features live insects, such as Madagascar hissing cockroaches, and more than two dozen costumed and preserved cockroaches including the bejeweled, piano-playing Liberoachi and the sexy Marilyn Monroach.
Compact and coin-operated, the Giant Shoe Museum displays about 20 giant shoes dating from the 1890s to the 1950s. A feature of Old Seattle Paperworks in the Pike Place Market in Seattle, the oversized footwear includes The Colossus, a 5-foot-long black leather wingtip from the 1920s, and a shoe worn by Robert Wadlow, once the world's tallest man.
The Zombie Room, voodoo dolls and the small, red gris-gris bags used for carrying charms to invoke and attract voodoo spirits are among the mysteries explored at the New Orleans Historic Voodoo Museum in the city's French Quarter. If you're brave, join one of the museum's Voodoo-Cemetery Walking Tours, which stop at the tomb of the famous voodoo queen, Marie Laveau, whose portrait is inside the museum.
They suck — and that's why several dozen antique, vintage and just plain wacky suction-producing cleaning devices are displayed at the Vacuum Museum inside Stark's Vacuums in Portland, Ore. Some of the most unusual models offered time-saving conveniences. Our favorites: vacuum cleaners that double as hair dryers, neck vibrators, lamps or footstools, for those quick clean-ups in the den.
With artifacts that include a gallery of famous firearms, and interactive experiences that include a CSI-style forensics lab and a mock police lineup, the National Museum of Crime and Punishment in Washington, D.C. explores the criminal mind, notorious crimes and the ways that punishment has been meted out since the Middle Ages. For a bit of comic relief, visitors can study America's Dumbest Criminals.
No need to wait until Christmas to visit Santa Claus. Year-round the town of Santa Claus, Ind., is home to a Santa Claus statue, the Santa Claus post office, Christmas-themed stores and attractions and the Santa Claus Museum, which is filled with artifacts and memorabilia relating to Santa Claus the place and Santa Claus the person.

Whew! This has been a busy week!
Jack started piano lessons and violin lessons. This will be his third year in piano and his first in violin. He has really enjoyed the piano lessons (and Mrs. Connie) .
He was very excited about starting violin lessons. His greatest disappointment last week was not getting "the stick" with his violin. I think he thought he would just show up at the lesson and begin to play the violin!
Also this week, Curt had his first soccer game. Which they unfortunately lost 10-1. This is a good game for someone as hyper as Curt because they never stop running. This is his fifth year playing soccer and he has his favorite coach, Mr. Pierre.

text: If you're feeling brave, take a peek in Sal's Five and Ten. He sells great stuff. Wes Parker bought a 3-D poster there. He spent hours trying to see the hidden picture. Then he wished he hadn't. Because the thing inside the poster saw Wes, too. Now it wants out—and it wants Wes.

A lady friend read something I'd written in a magazine the other day and reacted like I'd punched a kitten square in the face.
'You pee in your wetsuit?!' she cried in horror.
'Err, yes … everyone does, what of it?' I replied.
'So you mean to tell me that even Kelly Slater pees himself when he wears a wetsuit?'
She, like most hot-blooded females I know, has a bit of a soft spot for The Jedi, and whilst he may be the King he still needs a wee now and then … although as we all know he pisses excellence.
This got me thinking. Surfing has a dark, damp secret. One that is curiously absent from the mainstream media gold-tinged, Endless Summer ideal of what surfing is.
Surfing is not all split-screen VW campers, beach parties, sunshine, attractive people, mahogany tans, wild sex, longboards, guitars and Jack flipping Johnson on the stereo as ad-agencies would have you believe. Far from it, but then again the more realistic version, the one you will actually see in British beach car parks on a daily basis is as far from that rose-tinted ideal as possible.
Namely: cold, pale-skinned people, wearing rubber suits, gleefully urinating on themselves as they nearly freeze to death and enjoying it. Which is wrong on so many levels.
From early childhood we are taught that weeing yourself is wrong. Wetting the bed is evil and will get you sent straight to damp, stinky hell. In fact if you still pee the bed at a late age they consider you a bit unsound. Slashing in public will get you a caution from the boys in blue and if you do it again (unavoidable after a few jars of beer) you will get arrested. Not so in the more libertarian France where you are positively encouraged to wee outside anywhere, at any time, even when talking to an attractive femme, she will merely keep smoking her Gauloises and admire your rostbif while you do so. Fact.
So how it is that whilst in a wetsuit it is considered totally fine, nay, encouraged, to have a good long wee? Or am I talking completely out of left field here? Hands up who never wees in their wetty. Thought so … Jeez, I make sure I drink heaps before going out in the winter just to make sure I have enough in the tank for a couple of those delightful warming episodes.
So. Who else pees for fun when engaged in sports? I guess swimmers have sneaky ones, they kind of take it for granted they are swimming in a soup of water, chlorine, skin flakes and pee, they might as well make the pool water yellow and be done with the pretence. Canoeists, windsurfers and all our supposedly related surf disciplines like kiters and wake-boarders will all be P-boys (maybe that's why they wear boardies outside their wetsuits? To hide the stains?) Cyclists and marathon runners must have something taped to their bits because stopping for a leak is gonna ruin your world record attempt? F1 drivers probably just put a carbonised graphene bolt in the end or something technical.
We are pretty unique. Hell, I'd even say we are more advanced, we aren't repressed in relation to our bodily functions. A pee in the winter when the sub-zero temps are really starting to bite is a magical thing. The only problem is modern wetsuit technology. It is getting too good. Time was a duckdive or good beating and you'd get a decent injection of cold North Atlantic brine to flush out the urea flourishing within. These day the wetties are so stretchy, so well cut, so flipping tech that hardly any water gets in, or more crucially, out.
This leads to an unenviable dilemma. When getting out from a winter session, when you have most definitely gone to the toilet on yourself, do you pull the neck out and go for the Atlantic flush of ice water. Or do you pretend you haven't then hope no one smells the overpowering stench of pee in the car on the way home? As long as everyone's gone for option B then it's fine. No one will mention it as everyone will be equally embarrassed.
I tend to go for option A, but I'm a masochist.
The other question is: when is it okay to wee? Some people think if the wetsuit is on then it's toilet time. Be it in the car park or walking down the beach. But beware: I was ankle deep about to go out at the Peak in Bundoran a year or two back and just doing up me chest zip when it broke terminally. I couldn't get it done up and so retired peeved and peed to the car. Instantly regretting the slash I'd merrily done on the walk down. As I had to sit in the car for two hours slowly marinating in fresh wee whilst waiting for everyone else to finish their session.
Going back to the disgusted friend of mine, who by now is looking at me like she doesn't know me at all, she had to ask: 'Do you poo in your wetsuit as well?'
My answer: 'Not intentionally.'
Not that I have.
But I know people who have. Everyone does.
When people are ill, it can be unavoidable, a shart in a wetsuit is probably the best place for it … and that's a warmth that really does last.

La Galleria delle Applicazioni raccoglie un'ampia varietà di tutorial e di app dimostrative realizzati con COMSOL Multiphysics in diversi ambiti applicativi, inclusi quelli elettrico, meccanico, fluidico e chimico. E' possibile scaricare i file dei modelli e delle app demo pronti all'uso e le istruzioni step-by-step per costruirli, e utilizzarli come punto di partenza per le proprie simulazioni.
Lo strumento di Ricerca Rapida permette di trovare i modelli che si riferiscono alla propria area di interesse. Per scaricare i file .mph dei modelli è necessario effettuare il login o creare un account COMSOL Access associato a un numero di licenza valido.
Tuning Fork
When a tuning fork is struck, it vibrates in a complex motion pattern that can be described mathematically as the superposition of resonant modes, also known as eigenmodes. Each mode is associated with a particular eigenfrequency. The tuning fork produces its characteristic sound from the specific timbre that is created by the combination of all of the eigenfrequencies. The Tuning Fork app ...
Transport and Adsorption
This model demonstrates how to model phenomena defined in different dimensions in a fully coupled manner using COMSOL Multiphysics. Whereas in most cases the reaction rate expression is defined as a function of the concentrations of the reactants and products, in adsorption reactions it is also necessary to model the surface concentrations of the active sites or surface complex. This implies ...
Rock Fracture Flow
A potential flow model of fluid flow in a rock fracture uses the so-called Reynolds equation. It shows how to use experimental data interpolated to a function used in the equation.
Loaded Spring - Using Global Equations to Satisfy Constraints
Global equations are a way of adding an additional equation to a model. A global equation can be used to describe a load, constraint, material property, or anything else in the model that has a uniquely definable solution. In this example, a structural mechanics model of a spring is augmented by a global equation which solves for the load to achieve a desired spring displacement.
Vacuum Drying
Vacuum drying is a chemical process frequently used in the pharmaceutical and food industries to remove water or an organic solvent from a wet powder. When designing a vacuum drying system, engineers aim to minimize the drying time while maintaining high quality in the product. This model investigates vacuum drying in a Nutsche filter-dryer, which consists of a cylindrical drum filled with wet ...
Diffraction Patterns
This example resembles the well-known 2-slit interference experiment often demonstrated in schools with water waves or sound. This model mimics the plane-wave excitation with two thin waveguides leading to slits in a screen, and it computes the diffraction pattern on the screen's other side. This diffraction pattern is clearly visible. The main effect of quantization is that the numerical ...
Joule Heating of a Microactuator
This tutorial model of a two-hot-arm thermal actuator couples three different physics phenomena: electric current conduction, heat conduction with heat generation, and structural stresses and strains due to thermal expansion. In this model version, the geometry is parameterized so that the effect of varying the actuator's dimensions can be analyzed.
Convective Cooling of a Busbar
This is a template MPH-file containing the physics interfaces and the parameterized geometry for the model Electrical Heating in a Busbar.
Process Control Using a PID Controller
This model shows how a flow model can be coupled to a process control mechanism. Controlling application parameters according to other application parameters is important within process engineering. Most control mechanisms use the data at a wall or an outlet to control inlet parameters. More accurate control can occur if you can control inlet parameters due to data found within a component ...
Traveling Load
This example shows how to model a load which varies in space and time. A series of load pulses travel along a beam which is supported at equal distances. For some combinations of the traveling speed of the load pulses and the spacing between them, it is possible to excite resonances in the beam. The effects of four different combinations of these parameters are investigated.

"The word is near you, in your mouth and in your heart -" Romans 10:8
Often Jesus turned to scripture in his prayer, teaching and times of need. Perhaps after his fasting in the desert for 40 days all he had left to hold on to was the scriptures in his mind and heart when approached by temptations. And this was enough.
What has been the experience of the "word" for the Sisters this week?
The monthly gathering of Redeemer Associates and Sisters focused on the invitation to have a courageous heart. A movie entitled "A Courageous Heart" was viewed to explore this theme – about a young woman rescuing children in Poland during the Holocaust. Her strength and inspiration came from remembering the words and example of her father.
Later in the week some of the Sisters watched the movie "Lincoln" – an example of another individual that remained faithful to his words and vision of freedom even when unpopular.
Also this week several employees in leadership positions through the Sisters' sponsored ministries gathered to hear words spoken by one of the Sisters about the spirit, mission and history of the Congregation – the foundation for all the work that is continued in the name of the Redeemer.
The three Sisters in leadership took time to step away for conversation, reflection and prayer – to listen to the words of Spirit as we enter more deeply into this new year.
As we draw closer to Spring gardeners in the Sisters community garden met for planning and a garden documentary film. May the words of preparation be the seeds that help bear a fruitful harvest.
Daily Mass provides the opportunity for the Sisters to proclaim and listen to the words of scripture as the day begins. It is a time to reflect on the words we will share with one another and all those we encounter during the day. Words have the power to lift up, inspire, and give hope or they can tear down.
The Gospel according to John begins with a description of the Word – the Word who came to dwell among us. The Word that is God. During this season of Lent let us call upon the name of Jesus – the Word; let us reflect upon Jesus described in the scriptures to center, to focus, to be enlightened, to be guided and strengthened for the daily journey.
