- Annie in Austin
- Welcome! As "Annie in Austin" I blog about gardening in Austin, TX with occasional looks back at our former gardens in Illinois. My husband Philo & I also make videos - some use garden images as background for my original songs, some capture Austin events & sometimes we share videos of birds in our garden. Come talk about gardens, movies, music, genealogy and Austin at the Transplantable Rose and listen to my original songs on YouTube. For an overview read Three Gardens, Twenty Years. Unless noted, these words and photos are my copyrighted work.

Garden Bloggers Bloom Day, July 2009
In the filtered shade on the patio where the containers get water a fragrant yellow Plumeria blooms with a few red flowers produced by the Spicy Jatropha bought in South Austin last fall.
The two white 'Acoma' crepe myrtles carry on - providing a hideout for a green garden spider and some dappled shade for a white Echinacea. (Click on the photo to enlarge it.) The coneflower looks much better as a tiny blur in the background...up close the petals have brown edges.
Is anyone else still watering their tomatoes? If mine stopped setting fruit I'd let them go, but both 'Early Girl' and 'Juliet' keep making flowers and tiny tomatoes and such valor deserves a little water and a great deal of appreciation.
The volunteer pattypan squash has flowers, too, and the few squash it's produced have been delicious. Last night our dinner menu gave a nod to Bastille Day, with one pattypan squash sliced and sautéed with onion and green pepper, then added to some cubed chicken that had been poached with herbs. I filled a few crêpes with this mixture, topped them with a cheese and wine sauce and served them with salad that had a couple of tomatoes from the garden in it.
There's a list of everything with a flower at my Annie's Addendum blog. Garden Bloggers Bloom Day (AKA GBBD) is the invention of Carol at May Dreams Gardens. For links to the many gardeners worldwide who are part of GBBD, please go to Carol's Blog.

I'm still watering my tomatoes, too, Annie. I'm actually still getting some Cherokee Purples! And all my coneflower petals have brown edges, too. Sad.ReplyDelete
Your white crepe myrtles are just bragging, now, aren't they?
It's looks like you have plenty blooming in your garden right now. But I do know how you feel we had a rough patch of it last month. Everything is just beautiful. Don't worry, I'm sure you can get some relief soon.--Randy
We are getting only the orange tomatoes (can't remember the variety name) now. Getting lots because they are in the most sun...the rest of the tomatoes are in heavy tree shade now a good part of the day. We are reconsidering everything due to the shade. We have had a nice mild summer and that makes me feel a little guilty as you folks in the South have really taken it on the chin.ReplyDelete
You have such interesting plants in your garden. We've had tons of Roma tomatoes but the Better Boys won't ripen. I don't know what it up with them. Do you plant for a fall crop as well?ReplyDelete
I adore the crocosmia and setcresea combination! And from the other photos, I'd never know that Austin was suffering through such a bad drought... it all looks wonderfully lush from here, Annie. ;)ReplyDelete
I peaked through my fingers and saw some nice blooms! Thanks for joining in for bloom day.ReplyDelete
Carol, May Dreams Gardens
What you do have looks just lovely. I especially like the white Crepe Myrtle with the white & green Coneflower. Don't feel too bad, most of my Coneflower blooms look a little ratty from Japanese Beetle attacks.ReplyDelete
Annie, It sure is disheartening to a gardener to live with the drought...I am so glad to see the beautiful crape myrtle and plumeria....they are cheerful plants. Like MMD...my coneflowers are brown spotted and only look good for a nano second! But I love them anyway. gailReplyDelete
I just love the crepe myrtles of the south. Especially when they get big like trees. The bark is so pretty as well as the blooms. I hope your area gets some relief soon Annie. I know it is stressful not only on the garden but yourself. Happy GBBD.ReplyDelete
Your bastille day menu sounded wonderful. We just sang the national anthem!! and watched the Tour de France. We are on a campsite with wifi so I am catching up on the world- especially bloom day. I had no idea that I could save the patty pan squash seeds. Must try that. I had a Juliet reseed and produce loads of toms. Not my favorite but anything that works.ReplyDelete
Plumeria blossoms. How tropical but then Austin's heading that way by all accounts. Happy bloom day.
My Juliets are making flowers - we'll see if they actually set fruit. The Celebrities are on hiatus. Love your crepe myrtle - the white and light lilac colors are my favorites. Guess I'll try pattypan squash next as the crookneck and zucchini have not produced a single edible fruit, waa.ReplyDelete
That green garden spider is so lovely Annie! It almost doesn't look real. I'm hoping you get some rain relief soon...but of course in the meantime you should water your tomatoes...surely you're allowed to use that much water?ReplyDelete
Crispy brown plants are the reality for Austin gardeners this bloom day, aren't they? But you managed to find some beauties nevertheless. This weather is separating the men from the boys among the garden plants.ReplyDelete
Your squash and chicken crepes sound delicious, Annie! And it looks like your tomatoes are surviving the heat and lack of water, definitely worth a few encouraging drinks. I've been very fortunate not to have to water my tomatoes much this year...the weather in Illinois has been very good for the garden this summer.ReplyDelete
I've stopped watering my tomatoes for many, complicated reasons I won't go into here. But you're right, such valor deserves water!ReplyDelete
Whoa, I love that crocosmia. I planted some next to my purple heart. They've come up but haven't done much else. How long have you had yours & where did you get them? I wonder which plumeria that is. Looks like mine. And must get a jatropha. Great flowers & would love that cheese & wine sauce recipe.ReplyDelete
Hello Annie, I started following your wonderful blog a couple of weeks ago, but this is my first post. I'm an Austin resident, and yes, I'm still watering my tomatoes, too. My "Solar Set" and volunteer tomatoes are still putting on fruit. I just recently added more compost and re-mulched them. And I agree with the others: your crepes sound delicious!ReplyDelete
I envy your Plumeria. Have I asked you about that flower's sex parts before? Where are they?ReplyDelete
It's a challenge to keep things alive, isn't it. You do have some nice blooms, though.ReplyDelete
Hi Annie, I'm still watering mine because there are a few green tomatoes on there. That cold front hit us. I'm sending it your way. We are down to 87F from 104F yesterday. It is bliss.~~DeeReplyDelete
I sincerely hope you got the cold front that Dee mentioned, Annie. I really feel for you with those weather conditions. I'm longing for more sunshine to warm my shoulders, and less rain so that I can get more done in the garden, but this weather is much preferred to your heat and drought.ReplyDelete
Let's hear it for the bloomers... hear hear! They're tough little beauties. I'm glad to see you still have plumeria blooms. I'm inhaling and pretending I can smell that wonderful scent :)
Only green tomatoes here yet. We must have patience!
Happy Bloom Day, Annie!
Thanks for commenting! Have been watering and working on new song - hoping for release next week.ReplyDelete
Iris - counted 20 small tomatoes this morning so watered and followed Tom Spencer's advice to spray with seaweed. No lovely heirlooms like your Cherokee purples.
Hello Randy - if you had a rough patch it sure does not show - your garden is smashing!
Here is reverse, Tabor - have cloth to ADD shade! Lakes have dropped - no boat ramps left...maybe El Nino will come to fill them up?
Normally we should be getting ready to plant fall tomatoes and other vegetables, but heard advice not to put started plants in the ground yet, but move into larger containers for awhile. Nothing normal about this year, Phillip!
Some of my combinations are accidental - but that one was deliberate so I'm glad you liked it Blackswamp Kim. Remember, I'm only showing you the good part!
You're welcome, Carol! Glad there was something to photograph.
Hi Mr McGregor's Daughter - the white crepe myrtles have done well, but the white coneflowers have been replanted 3 times! Should think up something else, I guess?
Constant rain is no fun either - is there anywhere where it's evened out, Gail? Still wondering how Pam/Digging makes her Echinacea behave.
These are semi-dwarf trees, Lisa, but some around town are enormous! Happy GBBD to you, too.
Thanks, Lancashire Jenny - I found an old Edison recording of the Marsellaise on YouTube and played that. Have fun camping and hope you are greeted by a living garden when you return!
Hi Shovel Ready Gardener Caroline! We've been growing Juliets for years -skins get tough when hot but still good chopped for tacos! White and lilac crepe myrtles are my favorites, too.ReplyDelete
Thank you on behalf of the spider, Leslie - they're all over the place here. I was curious if other people were still getting fruit and still watering...have seen many Austin bloggers already pulled out the plants or cut them way back.
It's odd to see what makes it, isn't it, Pam/Digging? Lambs Ears and sedum have croaked while the Mutabilis rose carries on!
Philo liked those crepes, Rose - I was glad the idea came to me! There are only a few surviving tomato plants, but they're still trying. Enjoy the water!
If we were going away I wouldn't bother, Accidental Huswife, guess tomatoes are my summer hobby?
The crocosmia were bulbs shared by MarthaChick, a onetime Austin gardenblogger. They only made leaves the first year, Linda from CTG. The plumeria came from Zilker Garden Fest in 2002, labeled "yellow". Love the scent!
There isn't any real recipe - have spent too many years throwing together whatever's in the house ;-]
Thanks for visiting binary days - Solar Set sounds just right for this year! I did seaweed again and some more mulch. Last year Early Girl was a bust but this year is still making tomatoes - hope yours keep doing well.
You haven't asked me before, ChuckB, and I wouldn't have known the answer anyway. I tried to look but the flowers bleed sap if you attempt to dissect them. So looked it up and read that insects crawl down the tube below the flower to where the sex organs are enclosed out of sight.
Thanks, Linda/Patchwork- if the lakes weren't so low I might water with more abandon, and worry about the bill later, but that just doesn't seem okay this year. The picking and choosing who to save is very stressful, isn't it?
No cold front here, Dee of Red Dirt Ramblings, but I'm glad it came as far as your garden. Hope your mom is improving!
Thanks, Kerri - neither one of us is in a good garden situation this year! Plants don't like chilled and soggy roots any more than they like to be baked... where's the middle ground?
This plumeria is a rooted branch of the original plant - it likes the patio and since it's 3-feet tall instead of 8-feet, I can get closer to the fragrance. Bet once the tomatoes start you'll have bushels!
Thank you all!
That plumeria smells as nice as it looks.ReplyDelete
Seeing the crocosmia, though, makes me feel guilty because the ones you gave me are still in a pot and unplanted and not very happy to be in my hands instead of yours.
Annie, I'm glad there are a few blooms to lift your spirits at Circus-Cercis! Your Pattypan squash bloom intrigues me ... run over to my latest post and tell me if the leaves on my volunteer squash plant are the same as yours? I really want to know which cucurbit has made itself at home on MCOK!ReplyDelete
Annie I am still watering my tomatoes - erratically though. I decide to let them go then spot a tiny tomato trying to set and relent. Rinse, lather and repeat. I have had just a handful of tiny gold tomatoes this year but they were soooo sweetly delicious.ReplyDelete
I am toying with the idea of trying for a second crop this year but mostly keeping my fingers crossed for a bumper crop of peppers for our troubles.
I had such problems with vine borers last year I didn't try more squash this year. Maybe I am too easily discouraged.... Thanks for sharing your blooms!
NO wonder you loved the rain drenched redbud picture at The Havens. I am sorry to hear you are experiencing such a deep drought. I remember what it was like here several years ago when we did. But that was only one year. Three years in a row would seem way too punishing.ReplyDelete
I hope your little cercis do survive; they are pretty hardy trees.
I am not watering my tomatoes because the sky has been doing it for me. It has been so cool here, unseasonably so, that I am barely getting any ripening at all. Soon.
You asked: Is anyone else still watering their tomatoes?ReplyDelete
We're watering, and they are looking pretty good so far. One plant is still setting fruit, a German heirloom, believe it or not.
But we had a dismal year. We planted a little too early. Maybe Fall will be better. Here's hoping.
A comment from you is like chocolate - maybe I could live without it, but life is more fun with it. I'll try to answer. If someone else's comment piques your interest, please feel free to talk among yourselves.

House For Sale - or is it?
Our house is on the market and I'm wondering if it is the right price. It seems too low to me, but there is a man interested and he has now seen it three times. There is quite a story to him, but I can't say here sadly. The thing is, why do people mess you around when looking at your property? He's been three times and says he wants it. He has made two offers - both silly - and knew before the third viewing it was a price we agreed with the agent or nothing. He's now gone off for days saying he wants to have the roof looked at. There is nothing wrong with the roof, but apparently he has a thing about them.
If I was really keen on a house and wanted it, I would offer the price wanted subject to the roof report being ok. I would have then arranged for it to be looked at while I was away so it was ready for me to hear about on my return. Instead, he#s gone away telling us he wants a very quick purchase if he wants it and doesn't want any delay! He doesn't? He has exchanged on his property and has a completion date and has messed us around for weeks now and yet expects us to move out when HE decides we should without having time to look for anything else.
Thing is, we are looking at other properties now, but without him offering the right price for ours yet, how can we make an offer on anything else? The market is so bad that there are hardly any properties for sale at the moment and any that are and are good for the price are snapped up immediately. He isn't playing fair and I've told him so. He is back today and I've told him I want an answer or I'm withdrawing my house from him. You see, we aren't desperate to move. We love where we are and wouldn't ever move, but we want to get rid of the mortgage now. They say buying and selling houses is one of the most stressful things to go through, I think it's fun, it's people like out possible buyer that make it stressful. We might hear from him today, but in the meantime, we're off to look at a house this afternoon that someone already made a rejected offer on.
Wish us luck, I think with this chap we're going to need it!

This was drawn while he was taking a long time during a Scrabble match.
Same dude. I showed it to him and he seemed to think the guy was holding a knife at first. The little boy with the glasses is supposed to me. I actually quite like how it came out, and I've been reusing that nose shape for some other self-portraits I've done.

Data from the Census Bureau's economic and demographic programs may be accessed within the MCRDC. Conducting research in the MCRDC can provide researchers with several advantages relative to analysis with publicly available data. Firm and establishment level data from the economic censuses (e.g. manufactures, services, transportation, and wholesale and retail trade) are available only through an RDC. The Census Bureau has created panel datasets covering virtually all business enterprises in the United States along with specialized files to link firms and their employees.
Other data available include specialized surveys on topics such as medical expenditures, pollution abatement, research and development, and crime victimization. Both economic and demographic data (at the individual and household level) include detailed geo-spatial variables, such as Census block. There is virtually no top or bottom coding of MCRDC data. It is possible to link MCRDC data sets to other non-Census data by matching individual respondents or geographic areas. Surveys conducted by the Census Bureau for other agencies may be available with the permission of the sponsoring agency.

Ticket sales $187M (43%)
Total revenue $434M
Ticket sales $187M (43%)
Total revenue $434M
"Let's go!" - Joseph Kelly Jr
Yankees ticket sales are approximately 47% of their annual revenue. Almost every other team is under 40%, so the Sox and Yankees probably value their ticket sales more than most franchises.
Least important ticket sales:
Marlins - 16%
A's - 15%
Rays - 14%
"Let's go!" - Joseph Kelly Jr
"Hating the Yankees like it's a religion since 94'" RIP Mike.
"It's also a simple and indisputable fact that WAR isn't the be-all end-all in valuations, especially in real life. Wanna know why? Because an ace in run-prevention for 120 innings means more often than not, a sub-standard pitcher covering for the rest of the IP that pitcher fails to provide. You can't see value in a vacuum when a player does not provide full-time production."
It's a mere moment in a man's life between the All-Star game and the Old Timer's game.
-Vin Scully
That'll never happen.
Bank of America is the official bank of the Yankees, not Chase.
did it go in looking like Damon and come out looking like Tavares?
Bowden says Sox offered groome and a player off the roster for Manny.
If that player is bogey, then I think Baltimore should have jumped on that trade.
If that player is a pitcher, then I see why Baltimore passed.
My question is.... has dave decided the bradleys and bogeys of our team have plateaued and is he trying to upgrade them with JD and manny?
It's a mere moment in a man's life between the All-Star game and the Old Timer's game.

My Little Phony
Monday, June 07, 2004
This couldn't have come at a better time:
You're My Little Pony!! Sweet and innocent and
happy, you make people want to spew burrito
chunks. Even a Care Bear could kick your ass.
What childhood toy from the 80s are you?
brought to you by Quizilla
(Via Fruit Cocktail - do you know how hard it is not to write Fruit Basket, the Japanese fruity musical chairs game?)
There was a My Little Pony at the 21st Century Antiques Fair. A blue one, one whose name I should have known.
JJ swore that matter held memories for people. People didn't have their memories tucked into some cranial crease; to remember something one could hold that thing in which the memory resides. I picked up the My Little Pony, strained my brain for some recollection of that slab o' plastic's name.
The vendor asked me what kind of My Little Pony fan am I if I can't even remember my former toy's name. Embarrassed, I put down the My Little Pony, and exclaimed that I once owned a Strawberry Shortcake (pointing to her but not to her companion, a denizen of Shortcake's saccharine empire). The vendor wouldn't let me off so easily.
"There's a My Little Pony the Movie poster up for sale on Ebay," he said. I didn't want to tell him I thought the movie sucked. Eleven-year-old me thought I could have done a better job of the script.
"No one's bid on the poster yet," continued the vendor.
No wonder, the movie featured male My Little Ponies who had fake Clydesdale hooves.
"The bidding closes tomorrow," he said.
Too bad. I don't know Ebay and I don't plan on knowing Ebay. I fart on Ebay.
"You should buy the poster. Then you can be a self-respecting My Little Pony fan."
That hurt.
I was My Little Pony's greatest fan. Sure I never had the whole collection, but I made dioramas with My Little Ponies. Changed them once a month. Designed my own My Little Ponies. My grade four teacher, Ms. Symko, put me in the corner for drawing My Little Ponies during Bible art class (this was in 1985, at the Catholic school).
When I was 16, I gave all my My Little Ponies to my sister. A teenager doesn't need toys. Especially not uncool toys. Once the My Little Ponies were in my sister's possession, she sold them all for $25 at a garage sale. My near-mint condition Ponies!
The guy who took my My Little Ponies was skinny and had a moustache. A hockey fan if I ever saw one. Claimed they were for his daughter whom he claimed was the little girl standing right beside him. Like most hockey fans, he probably has a boa constrictor at home and fed the My Little Ponies to the boa.
Out of all the foolhardy mistakes in my life, this one elicited true regret. Other errors had a purpose. I learned from them. The My Little Pony mistake will haunt me forever.
Years of collecting gone, including a severe beating for that sweet white pegasus with the fluorescent yellow hair - Surprise was her name - the months of collecting pennies off the street until I had eight dollars in pennies, eight hundred pennies that went towards purchasing my dream toy, my very first purchase with my own money at nine years old, not one of those pennies given to me, all picked off the street. All that gone.
Today I am thinking to yesterday's Pony. Should I have bought it? Should I start afresh, like the Jews in Israel?
Yesterday my budget went towards one item, an assymetrical silver bumblebee brooch, today pinned to the bottom of the V on my V-necked blue velvet shirt. I made no allowances for the My Little Pony and I stayed strictly within budget.
Tonight I daydream about that Pony. Who was she?
The quiz result is a sign. I should begin anew.
A little research showed me the path. My Little Pony customization. It must be fun to take apart the Ponies and recreate them in a new image. The Earth would groan under the weight of new Ponies like: Twizzelina - blood-red with silver! Honky-Tonky Pony - silver! The Maoist Red Guard Pony - blood-red! The Plotting Empress Pony! A Pony with Praying Mantises on her shanks! And what would the Black Pony be if not the French Revolution Pony! Oooh, blood drops!
Dava, a Pony Peddler, has a method for removing Pony heads: "You can loosen the glue by holding the stubborn equine's head in boiling water for a few seconds. Then, grasp her head with a cloth (careful, she's hot!) and pull in different angles. Her head should pop right off."

I woke at 4:22 with a jolt. Awareness of what I needed to fit into this day, was enough to jolt me again. And I get the most done in the peace and quiet before the phones start.
It's a magnificent day.
A hardly believable, most gentle breath of dawn-icy air hardly caresses my bare legs.
The window is open and I'm sitting close to it; I'm listening to the early birds catching their worms, and breathing in the peace.
Life, today I love you.
God, I always love you, but I know that I'm loving you even more every day that passes. Thank you for teaching me about simplifying my life, on every level. It really sounds easy, but it's not. Rewarding, very rewarding however, it is.
Thank you for today God, thank you for what you do for me. But thank you, most of all, for your constant companionship (I know that you're here RIGHT NOW), your blow-me-away humour, and the great ways in which you communicate with me.
Can I ask you a favor, three things?
I pray for eyes to truly see with; please will you bless Africa; and will you show me what I can do (especially so that I can live an extraordinary out-of-the-box life).
I choose to live passionately, deeply, intensely... I choose to FEEL!
The photo I took last Saturday with Guy, we were walking through Emgwenya township, after our abseil. That is a profile of Imemeza mountain in the background - the place of shouting.

Because it feels so good to stop.
R: "I'm sorry, Mom! I'm sorry! I'M SORRYYY!"
Me: "Go calm down in your room. Dale, why is Rachel screaming?"
D: "She went like this [squeezes his cheeks hard] to me." (We would call that scratching because squishing your face is too long.)
Me: "Why did she do that?"
D: "I was going to tell that she scratched me."
Me: "Why did she scratch you?"
D: "Because I was going to tell on her."
Me: "What did she do that you were going to tell on her?"
D: "She scratched me."
Me: "You were going to tell on her for scratching and so she scratched you?[Affirmative nod.] How many times did she scratch?"
D: "Once."
My head hurts.

Next month, my wonderful parents are celebrating their 50th wedding anniversary. All five of us kids were visiting them for a few days this week and my brother had the brilliant idea of recreating that special anniversary dinner from so long ago. We were so excited to show them how far we have come. We have come far! Five kids have added five spouses and 13
It was just like old times, right down to the sauce on the spaghetti! That's right. In my inconspicuous hurry to get the food on the table without being noticed, I heated up a whole jar of Suzanne's home made ketchup, rather than Raelynn's home made spaghetti sauce. My parents were in the hall politely eating our fancy dinner and not saying a word. My son, however is not so tactful and he took one bite of his and said, "What did you do to this sauce?" We all tasted it and wondered the same thing. Aw man, we are still putting ketchup on spaghetti! I guess we haven't come as far as we thought we had. Happy 50th mom and dad! Aren't you proud of this crowd you raised?
Although it does not taste especially delicious on spaghetti, you can't find a better dressing for your home made french fries or your eggs and sausage. This is truly ketchup out of the bottle. It contains no high fructose corn syrup or synthetic preservatives. It is good for the gut too! I am excited to try it this summer when I make my own tomato sauce from my backyard tomatoes.
1/4 cup liquid whey (for preservation)
¼- ½ cup Pure Grade B Maple Syrup
Pinch of cayenne pepper (use 1/4 Tsp for a more powerful taste)
1 Tbs sea salt (I recommend Celtic Sea Salt for the best flavor)
3 cloves organic garlic, mashed
1/2 cup fish sauce (from Asian supermarket – make sure to get one with only anchovies and salt as the listed ingredients)
Mix all the ingredients until smooth. You can alter any of the spices to taste. If you want anniversary style spaghetti, heat slowly over the stove in secret and serve on pasta. But I really don't recommend it!
Do you find this "pinteresting"? Is it likeable? Does it leave you twitterpated? Please consider following My Lamp

Showcase: Imperial Fist
A neat little conversion, never painted Imperial Fists before. Think he came out looking reasonable. More odd bods to follow. More pics after the jump...
I really like what you're done with the back of the base. Very clever mate.ReplyDelete
Agreed with Garfy there.. very nice indeed! Really makes it stand out!ReplyDelete
Yeah the base is nice, but I like the fine blood splatter on his armour. Neat touch.ReplyDelete
Really nice painted, love the 'fists. But I have to ask, did you buy this model from this guy? :) http://djartistknight.deviantart.com/gallery/#/d2ejthnReplyDelete
Yes! Except I more inherited through a friend of a friend rather than bought. I haven't seen the guy who converted the fig for about 10 years, but found him in a bundle I recieved from a mate. I hadn't actually ever seen that pic, so my thanks to you!ReplyDelete

November '13 Book Haul!
my Goodreads wishlist shelf, my notes app in phone, my post-it on the wall, shredded old paper in my wallet, in a folder in my computer... it's literally everywhere. I even actually forgot the reason I want to have most of books in my wishlist, it's already too long being ignored. I have so many choices really, but I decided to buy these guys in the first week of November. Koin Terakhir by Yogie Nugraha, A Brief History of Time by Stephen Hawking, and The Man who Loved Books Too Much by Allison Hoover Bartlett. After that, I succeed to hold myself for not buying another books for two weeks ahead. Pat my own shoulder.
I did succeed to restrain myself so I didn't visit book stores in the first half of the month, but who am I kidding? That couldn't stop me buying books. I visited tons of online book stores and stumbled into parcelbuku.net. Apparently they held bargain books and I found two books that are in my wishlist. I instantly put those in the cart. They are The Brief Wondrous Life of Oscar Wao by Junot Diaz and The Girl who Kicked the Hornets' Nest by Stieg Larsson. And, for some odd reason that I can't recall right now, I also picked The Digital God by Greg Iles and Sweet Misfortune by Kevin Alan Milne. The sweet thing about this is, they also sent many bookmarks along with the books. Nice touch!
I shall Not Hate by Izzeldin Abuelaish, Starters by Lissa Price, Jermal by Yokie Adityo, The Weird Sisters by Eleanor Brown, When God was a Rabbit by Sarah Winman, We are All Weird by Seth Godin, and Foucault's Pendulum by Umberto Eco. Freaking fantastic.
Misteri di Gunung Teulabonari by Michael Hoeye, Anak Rembulan by Djokolelono, One Amazing Thing by Chitra Banerjee Divakaruni, Mantra by Azisa Noor & R. Amdani, Hanya Salju dan Pisau Batu by Happy Salma & Pidi Baiq, and Itik Bali by Dyah Ayu. There are also three books (book #2-#4) from How to Train Your Dragon series by Cressida Cowell that I forgot to photograph. For all of those books, I even didn't spend more than Rp 80.000. A-ma-zing.
A couple days later, I couldn't resist the temptation longer, and I went AGAIN to Rumah Buku. This time, I saw Saudagar Buku dari Kabul by Asne Seierstad that somehow I didn't notice it's there before. This book had been in my wishlist since forever, and of course now I also can't remember why I want to have it. It's been a long time. But I'm glad I visited Rumah Buku again and finally bought this. For no particular reason, I also bought Age of the Five Trilogy by Trudi Canavan (three books in the top picture), Burning Sea by John Shors, and A Long Way Gone by Ishmael Beah.
This is the last, finally! I'm so happy because this November I got five, yes five, free books. Awesome. First, I won a giveaway and got the e-book copies of The Demdike Legacy by Barry Durham and Familiar Territory also by him. This will be my first giveaway that I won. Then my junior in uni sent me her self-published book, Kata Kita by Romian Tambun Saribu. I'm happy for her, and envy her too for publishing a book (me want!). And, the most exciting moment for me in this month is when a package from Alvabet (Indonesian publisher) arrived and it contained two free books for me! I totally freaked my head out. I know I shouldn't be so surprised because I actually asked for it. A week before that, I sent them an e-mail and asked them to send me exactly those two books (they're in my wishlist, yes!) in exchange for honest reviews. I never do that before, you know, ask a publisher to send me free books. Plus, they didn't reply my e-mail, so for sure I expected nothing. But, they did send the books, I LOVE YOU, ALVABET! They are Taman Api by Yonathan Rahardjo and The Husband by Dean Koontz.
So, I kind of succeed to scratch some books in my wishlist, I feel wonderful. Not really actually, I got a fever now. Anyway, see you on the next post! HAKUNA MATATA!

Good Morning all
Nellie over at Early Morning Thoughts (her link can be found on my blog roll on the left) did me the honor of including me in her list of inspirational blogs , and gave me this award:
I am truly honored that she would do such a thing , and she's put me in some pretty amazing company. The rules were these:
Put the logo on your blog
Add a link to the person that nominated you
Nominate up to 7 other blogs
Leave a message for your nominees on their blogs
Now I'm going to change this up just a wee bit , as a surprise. I will add the expected artist blogs , but mingled in are other sites that I enjoy reading or browsing as the case may be - and one isn't even a blog , it's a French dotcom. Don't understand a word of it , don't remember how I found it , but I'm just fascinated with her work. Took me a while to work out how to move around but I'll give you a hint - click on the header , and then start clicking on the categories as they scroll through.
Eric Freita's Incessant Ramblings
Well , these should keep you occupied for a while. They've killed a lot of hours for me lol. There's a bit of art and a bit of reading - well a lot of reading really. But that captures my attention too - I'm a big reader and I love a good story. Eric's blog is newer but I do love his art and it was very interesting learning something about the process.
Have fun!

The 'Mind Wide Open' challenge
This is my entry for the MWO challenge on Gails blog. She'll be uploading all the entries tomorrow and then the voting shall commence. I'm really curious to see what everyone has done - the only requirement was to use the image she provided but other than that , you could go to any media your little heart desired , so there should be a lot of variety.
I decided to make a journal cover for myself. Actually , I'd planned on having the whole journal done darnit , but the last few days I haven't been able to get to the table , so I guess this is really a WIP. All I have left is to get my pages together and drill a few holes , and I'm pretty much done. I want to be able to flip the cover all the way around to the back if I'm working/writing in bed , and I also want to be able to rearrange pages if needed to keep my thoughts together on a specific piece. The post-it thing hasn't really worked out.
So this is my first journal , and for now everything's going in it. We'll see how that works and I'll change things up down the road if I need to. Any expert journallers out there can feel free to shoot me suggestions or advice - I'm all ears lol.

Mark & Chelsea
I know there are a lot of Idol fans out there , but I never really got into that show. The one I'm glued to is 'So You Think You Can Dance' - I love Joshua and Katee the most , and of course Twitch and Kherrington , but this last week Mark and Chelsea just knocked it OUT , at least for me.
The story behind the dance was of a woman who feels her relationship slipping away from her - I went out and got the music afterwards because it just blew me away. I've been there , we've all been there at some point or in some way - and this piece sucked the air from my lungs. I even crumpled up at the end , when he left her and went to work.
It just gets to me , what can I say. I continue to crumple every time I watch the video.
Anyway , I went looking for the video on Youtube so I could post it on my blog. There have been so many fanTAStic dances - Joshua is my BOY! - but - wow.
Take a look and see them dance here .
(for the record , I love Joshua & Katee - but if they win Twitch loses - what to do what to do. . .)

Mind Wide Open - and other Enablements lol.
I ran across something interesting yesterday on my 'break' from cleaning the house. I have absolutely no clue how I wound up there , but there's a new blog in town and it's an art challenge blog , put together by Gail Schmidt called Mind Wide Open. I've added a button link at my top left sidebar , too. Pretty , isn't it?! Anyway , Gail's got an absolutely gorgeous image up for the first challenge piece - I suggest you pop over and see what's what! The prize is a gift certificate to her store Shabby Cottage Studio's , which is stocked with some rather scrumptious papers and other goodies. As are the Etsy's and websites of a few of her design team members , some of which I know and some of which I don't. And one of which I just scored several old tins and various other goodies from *cough*. That was Art and Images by Kim (come on , I had to look , didn't I?).
Next up , I have an online friend named Nellie Wortman who is so talented , and sweet as the day is long. Sweeter , actually - her blog is called Early Morning Thoughts and it's a blog I visit every chance I get. Nellie makes lovely art and has an Etsy site as well , Nellies Creative Touch - drop by and look , but please don't buy anything because I want it , ok?
Speaking of beautiful journals (was I?) another Etsy site of my friend Glenda Bailey , TwoCool Texans would be a place worth visiting , too. Glenda and her daughter Alisha both have some lovely things , and there's a great variety - felting , collage sheets , journals , the list goes on and on.
Remember - friends enable friends. Have fun , lol!

Kasargod : Kerala Home Minister Thiruvanchoor Radhakrishnan on Friday said there was no differences of opinion among the partners of the Congress-led United Democratic Front (UDF).
Talking to reporters here, he said there was no differences of opinion in the UDF and the reprots agaisnt it were wrong.
To a query on IUML leader and Public Works minister V K Ibrahim Kunju`s recent controversial remark that IUML was governing the state, Radhakrishnan said they `(IUML) is an important partner in the UDF.
They have been showing respect to the front all these years`, he said.
Radhakrishnan said some people are spreading false campaign that there was differences of opinion between IUML and Congress. These type of false campaign will not affect the unity of the front`, Radhakrishnan said.
To a query on the reported intervention of State Information Commissioner in the land allotment case against CPI-M veteran V S Achuthanandan, he said a probe has started. Action will be initiated if it is proved, Radhakrishnan said.
An audio tape of the State Information Commissioner and former DIG K Natarajan`s purported telephonic talk with Vigilance DySP V G Kunhan, one of the investigating officers in the case, asking him to spare Achuthanandan in the case, was aired by a leading Malayalam TV channel recently.
The Vigilance Director had also ordered an inquiry into the issue.

We met with the Metabolic Geneticist regarding Ryan's test results and what to do next. I think I've already mentioned to you that he is a walking database of pure genius. I brought all of his notes and drawings home with me so that hopefully I can relay at least most of what he taught me. I'm sure I'll miss some of it.
Talking with him is like attending a 400 level college class about a subject that you're really, really interested in learning everything about when you're really only ready for the 100 level class. I want desperately to grasp everything he says. I study before I go and prepare for the appointment. I ask good questions, take good notes, and still I leave wishing I understood more. I guess I just wish I could spend more time being taught by him.
Anyway ... let's get to the nitty gritty.
So, you probably already know that Ryan was tested for all kinds of things because he had lost a bunch of his skills. Most of them came back negative. However, at the end of November, the DNA test for Niemann-Pick Disease Type C found him to be positive for 1 gene mutation. "At least a heterozygote for NPC." There needs to be 2 gene mutations to be diagnosed with the disease. The 2nd gene mutation was "questionable."
Interesting to me, maybe to some of you all also, maybe meaningless to the medical team though, was that there were variants of unknown significance on his DNA diagnostic testing. Seven (to be exact) were listed. Since most of you probably won't have a need to see DNA testing, they list the Nucleotide Change, the Amino Acid Change, the Location, the Lygosity, and then a Reference(s)/Comment(s). Kind of cool, right? It's amazing what all they can tell about a person's body now. This is off the current test results topic, but I will want to discuss this with the doc at the next appointment. It should be a good lesson. I can only imagine how much I will learn.
Anyway ... back to the topic... so from that test we knew for sure that Ryan had 1 gene mutation for NPC and a questionable 2nd. So, it was recommended that we do "biochemical testing."
The biochemical testing consisted of a skin biopsy, which we did in early December. With the skin biopsy they are then able to grow the cells (fibroblasts) in the lab and look at their ability to transport and store cholesterol.
So, here's where it gets interesting again ... and confusing ...
The transport of cholesterol in the cells is studied by measuring conversion of the cholesterol from one form to another ("esterification"). If we were to look at only this test result, we are back to a POSITIVE test result. However, the storage of cholesterol is assessed by staining the cells with a chemical ("filipin") that glows under ultraviolet light. This can show whether the cholesterol is being stored inappropriately in lysosomes, the recycling centers of the cell. The filipin staining was NEGATIVE.
So we have 1 + gene mutation, 1 ?? mutation. 1 negative test result and 1 positive test result. What does that equal? Well, it does not = Niemann-Pick Type C Disease.
This is where we get to the real nitty gritty stuff...
Instead the doctor says we then have to go back in the process to say, what affects cholesterol uptake? Why would his be so low if he doesn't have NPC? There could be Mitochondrial Issues. There could be Copper Metabolism issues. There could also be several other issues that "we don't even have human models for yet."
So what does that mean?
Well, first let me say, I'm surprised you're still reading this ... Mitochondrial ... and Copper ... both of these require that we do a muscle biopsy. We're doing that in less than 8 hours. So, check. If the muscle biopsy points us in the direction of Copper, then we may have to do a liver biopsy. Yuck. But, we'll deal with that if and when, not tonight. As for the other issues that "we don't even have human models for yet," he's going to research them. They do have "animal models" for some of the issues. I guess we'll learn more about those things if we need to. Maybe some day there will be a mother blogging about her child being diagnosed with the RyMann Syndrome. Has a nice ring, right? Hmmm... not a bad thing as long as we find a cure, too.
The muscle biopsy will be done tomorrow. Information from it will come back in stages, but all of the information should be back in 4 weeks. I'm off to get some sleep now. I just wanted to share all of this before I forgot it all.
PS If any of my doctor friends are reading this and I made any mistakes, please feel free to correct me. ;)

I personally like the law aspect of anything. Chapter 13 goes into the legality issues of using Internet. This is a necessity. No one wants to go to jail or be sued. Keeping in mind what is legal and what is not is a good tool to have when dealing with children and the Internet.
To bad this class is coming to an end. I have really enjoyed all the information that has been presented to me. Thank You Mr. Chamberlain:)

In Italy, on the way to Greece, my roommate and I meet up with a group of people our age and we travel through Greece together. In the group is a young woman Susan from New Hamshire travelling with Barney from La Jolla, California. They have been to Munich's Glyptothek and urge us to do the same. Susan tells us that the Barberini Faun (or the Drunken Satyr) is to be found there.
No longer said than done. After we hotfoot it to Venice and Lake Constance, our next stop is Munich and the Glyptothek to see what all the fuss is about.
Well, he IS impressive. I have a good long look thinking I'm probably not going to make it back to Munich to see him.
This September when in Paris, V. and I visited the Musée d'Orsay. As we make our way in, we find out that there is a special exhibition on male nudes. Among which we see...
Even though this one is a copy of the original in Munich, now you have an idea what all the fuss was about...

Along with the further mature LED technology, mini led light bars will be in the bedroom design development fields have more and better development. The bedroom of the 21 st century lamps design will LED lamps for the mainstream is designed, and fully reflect the energy conservation, health is changed, art is changed and humanized lighting development trend, become a bedroom light the dominant culture.
The bedroom can lighting lamps and lanterns, and lamps and lanterns is lighting concentrated reflection, it is not only the complete bedroom function, create visual buildings of the conditions of the tool, is part of the bedroom packaging, is lighting technology and architecture art entity. Modern lamps in the bedroom is not only of the lighting effect, build the bedroom atmosphere is the main component. Use of modelling of lamps and light color coordination, can make the bedroom environment has some kind of atmosphere and artistic conception, reflect a certain style and personality, increase the architectural art aesthetic feeling, make interior space more people with physiological and psychological needs and aesthetic taste.
Light color constitute the basic elements of visual aesthetics, is an important means of beautification bedroom. The selection of light source directly influence the artistic effect of light, light color display lamps in LED display on art unparalleled advantage; At present color LED products has covered the visible spectrum, and monochromatic good, high purity color, red, green, yellow LED to the combination of color and gray (16.7 million color) choice has a greater flexibility. Lamps and lanterns is glowing sculpture, by material, structure, form and texture structure of the material form is also show art lamps and the important means.
flexible led strip lighting technology make the bedroom lamps and scientific and artistic quality will be better organic union, broke the traditional lamps side frame, beyond the inherent of so-called lamps form of ideas, lamps in the visual perception and form design of art creative performance, with a new point of view to know and understand and express the theme of the light. We can be more flexible use of optical technology in Ming and dark collocation, the combination of light and color, material and structure design of the advantage, improve the design freedom to weaken the lighting lamps function, let the lamps become a visual art, create a comfortable beautiful light artistic effect. For example translucent synthetic materials and aluminum into similar to the candle of LED lamp, can put on the ground, at the corner or desk, conception is contracted and relaxed, form of visual experience of light and convey experience, let lamps with taste and vitality into being.
Human nature
Without a doubt, light, and the relationship between people is an eternal topic, "people see the light, I saw the light", it is a classic discourse has changed countless designer to the understanding of the lamp. Lamps is the highest realm "pressing" is human highest expression of lighting, the room without any trace of the common lamps, let people can feel light but couldn't find the light source, reflected light and human life of perfect combination of humanized design.
high watt led lights product small qualitative light, can choose different combination of light color LED into illumination soft various modules, any installation in the bedroom, the bedroom lighting lamps light source may result from the ground, metope, window, furniture and decorations. Therefore, the future will no longer limited to bedroom illume a single lamps and lanterns, and will by single lamps lighting into no lighting appliance feeling the whole lighting effect of the pressing. Different light color and brightness to the person's physiology and psychology can produce different effect, people in many cases don't need very bright white light, may yellow or other color of light more suitable for physiological and psychological needs. Three colors LED can realize the brightness, gray, color of the continuous transformation and choose, make lighting from in general for a variety of white light expansion color of light.
Therefore, people can according to overall lighting needs (such as color, brightness and direction, temperature, etc) to set the lighting effect, realizing the humanized intelligent control, create a different indoor illume result. Even if the bedroom only LED ceiling and glowing metope, people can also according to their respective requirements, the scene, as well as to the environment and different understanding of life, in different space and time of choice and control the brightness of the light, gray, color changes, the simulation of all kinds of the light environment to guide, improve mood, reflect more human lighting environment.
Energy saving
Research data shows that due to cold light is LED, semiconductor lighting itself will not pollute the environment, and incandescent lamp, fluorescent lamp, compared to electricity saving efficiency can achieve 70% above. In the same brightness, power consumption for normal bulb only 1/10 of the fluorescent tubes 1/2. If use LED to replace our current 50% of traditional lighting, our country save power each year is just a three gorges hydropower station is the sum total of the electricity, and the energy-saving benefit is very considerable.
LED is a kind of green light source. LED for dc drive, no stroboscopic; No infrared and uv ingredients, no radiation pollution, show color of the high and strong directional light; Dimmer performance is good, color temperature changes won't produce visual error; Cold light source low calorific value, can be safely touch; These are all incandescent light bulb and fluorescent lamp short of. It can provide a comfortable light space, and can meet the demand of physiological health, is to protect the vision and the health of environmental light source.
Because the present single LED power smaller, brightness is low, used alone sometimes can't attain lighting brightness demand, and will be more LED assembly together become practical design of LED lighting lamps has wide application prospects. Lamps and lighting designer can according to the needs of the object and flux, decided to the shape of the optical system, the lamps and lanterns of LED the size of the number and power; Can also will several LED tube combination design into point light source, ring or face light source of "the second light source," based on a combination of "the second light source" to design lamps and lanterns.
As a new type of LED lighting technology, the application prospect remarkable, especially high brightness LED more is known as the 21 st century most valuable source of light, lighting area will cause a new revolution. Since white LED appear, whether shine principle or function which other traditional light source unmatched advantage, therefore, the LED illumination has become a bedroom in the field of the 21 st century lighting a trend, the LED and traditional incandescent light bulb and fluorescent lamp together, for the bedroom opened up a new heaven and earth lighting. The content and style of design lamps mainly is light, LED to new light lighting design and development of innovation, from a great extent change our lighting idea, so that we can from traditional point, line source limited liberate, lamps of language and concept design can free play and a new established, lamps and lanterns in the visual perception and form of creative performance has a more flexible space of the bedroom, the illumination luminaries to more energy conservation, health is changed, art is changed and human development.

This card was so much fun to make, I love the new Hardwood Stamp in the Occasions Catalog, and the little porcupine from the Life in the Forest set goes perfectly with it! This card is a simple way to welcome a baby boy into the world. I used Soft Sky, Baked Brown Sugar and Very Vanilla to create a 'soft' feel to the card. I colored in the porcupine with a Blender Pen and Baked Brown Sugar ink. He is cut out with the Circle Framelits and then I popped it up with a 1 3/4" Soft Sky Scalloped Circle Punch. The sentiment is from A Dozen Thoughts and the ribbon is our beautiful 1/2" Seam Binding Ribbon. I hope you enjoy this cute card as much as I do!

There is one summary for H.R.1723. Bill summaries are authored by CRS.
Shown Here:
Introduced in House (05/04/2011)
Common Sense Economic Recovery Act of 2011 - Cites circumstances under which, for purposes of determining capital requirements or measuring an insured depository institution's capital, such an institution may treat a non-accrual loan as an accrual loan.
(Non-accrual [also known as non-performing or doubtful] loans are those on which interest is overdue and full collection of principal is uncertain, and so interest, if it has not been paid in over 90 days, cannot be credited to the bank's revenue account until it has actually been received.)
Conditions treatment as an accrual loan on a non-accrual loan's being current, not more than 30 days delinquent on a monthly payment, and an amortizing loan whose payments are not being funded through an interest reserve account.
Applies accrual loan treatment, to the same extent as non-modified mortgage loans, to modified mortgage loans meeting the criteria of this Act, including those that also meet the criteria for troubled debt restructuring.
Prohibits the appropriate federal banking agency from imposing any additional accounting requirements upon an insured depository institution with respect to a loan treated as an accrual loan under this Act if the result of the additional requirement would adversely impact measurement of the institution's capital.
Directs the Financial Stability Oversight Council to study how best to prevent the issuance of contradictory guidance to such institutions by federal banking agencies with respect to loan classifications and capital requirements.

JAMES A. SORENSON, Plaintiff, -vs- BURNS CASCADE CO., a Division of Burns Brothers Manufacturing Co., Inc., Defendant.
JOHN T. CURTIN, United States District Judge
The opinion of the court was delivered by: CURTIN
DECISION and ORDER
CURTIN, District Judge
Plaintiff James A. Sorenson was 54 years old when he was fired by the defendant Burns Cascade, a division of Burns Brothers Manufacturing, Inc. Plaintiff commenced this action on March 15, 1995 alleging age discrimination under the Age Discrimination in Employment Act, 29 U.S.C. § 621 et seq. ("ADEA"), and the New York Human Rights Law (N.Y. Executive Law § 290 et seq.) ("NYHRL"). Before commencing this action, plaintiff filed a charge of discrimination with the EEOC on or about October 31, 1994, which the EEOC cross-filed with the New York State Division of Human Rights. Item 8, Ex. A.
Defendant now moves for summary judgment. Plaintiff cross-moves for summary judgment as to defendant's affirmative defenses.
Burns Cascade was formed in September 1991 to sell certain industrial pipes and valves to the Buffalo market. These products were manufactured by the Neles Jamesbury Company. In order to gain immediate access to Neles Jamesbury customers, David Pollack, the president of Burns Cascade, asked Neles Jamesbury representatives for recommendations. These representatives suggested that Pollack hire plaintiff and William Jennings, who were then working for Great Lakes Plumbing and Supply, a company already selling Neles-Jamesbury products in the Buffalo area. Item 14, pp.4-5.
Plaintiff and Mr. Jennings were subsequently hired to start the Burns Cascade operation in Buffalo. Jennings was hired as manager of the Pipe, Valve and Fittings Group of the Buffalo office at an annual salary of $ 83,000. Plaintiff was hired as a sales representative at a salary of $ 66,500 per year. Item 7, p.4. Both Jennings and plaintiff were 52 years old on the date they were hired. Item 7, p.3.
On June 29, 1994, Pollack fired plaintiff and Jennings, stating that Burns Cascade was losing money. Item 14, p.6. Before firing them, Pollack hired Christopher Louisos, who was 32 years old at the time, to replace plaintiff and Jennings. Louisos had limited experience selling industrial pipes and valves, and was hired at an annual salary of $ 38,000. Id., p.4.
I. Plaintiff has not shown that employer's age-neutral explanation is a pretext.
To establish a claim under the ADEA, plaintiff must first present a prima facie case of age discrimination. Woroski v. Nashua Corp., 31 F.3d 105, 108 (2d Cir. 1994). To establish a prima facie case, plaintiff must show: "'(1) that he was within the protected age group, (2) that he was qualified for the position, (3) that he was discharged, and (4) that the discharge occurred under circumstances giving rise to an inference of age discrimination.'" Id. (quoting Spence v. Maryland Casualty Co., 995 F.2d 1147, 1155 (2d Cir. 1993). Once the plaintiff has established a prima facie case, the employer must offer a legitimate, non-discriminatory business rationale for its actions. Id. If the employers gives an age-neutral reason for the termination, plaintiff must bear the burden of proving that the employee's age was the actual reason for the discharge. Id. The burden of establishing a prima facie case is a modest one, "but it has substance nevertheless." Viola v. Philips Medical Systems of North America, 42 F.3d 712, 716 (2d Cir. 1994).
Plaintiff satisfies the prima facie requirement: he was 54 on the date he was fired, defendant does not dispute that plaintiff was qualified for the position, plaintiff was discharged, and his replacement was just 32 years old. Although plaintiff does not offer much support for his theory, these facts taken together could permit a reasonable inference of age discrimination.
A. Defendant's explanation
Defendant maintains that plaintiff was terminated because (1) plaintiff was unsuccessful in meeting the goals he was hired to achieve, (2) given his high salary, it was not economically beneficial for the company to employ him and (3) the company was changing the focus of its sales efforts outside plaintiff's area of experience. Item 7, p. 9. Defendant's production of a non-discriminatory reason for its ...

Is he safe?
2016/01/13 § Leave a comment
"Ooh!" said Susan, "I'd thought he was a man. Is he–quite safe? I shall feel rather nervous about meeting a lion."
"That you will, dearie, and make no mistake," said Mrs. Beaver, "if there's anyone who can appear before Aslan without their knees knocking, they're either braver than most or else just silly."
"Then he isn't safe?" said Lucy.
"Safe?" said Mr. Beaver. "Don't you hear what Mrs. Beaver tells you? Who said anything about safe? 'Course he isn't safe. But he's good. He's the King, I tell you."1

Then, I decided I needed something more to go with it. So, I decided to give them some tools--I figured that is something you wouldn't think about needing until you needed. So, I bought some tools, but---I would need something to put them in--and something CUTE. So--a bag. I just used material that we already had on hand that coordinated with the frames. Well, the fun part here is that I had bought some heat transfer to try out in my Silhouette. So, I decided to personalize the bag. It was pretty easy--I only messed up once (I forgot to reverse it ---duh!!!). It cute out, I put it on the material and ironed. I think they turned out really cute.
Here are the gifts all wrapped up and ready to be delivered.

In what has been described as the largest study on the subject, researchers found that breast cancer is not a single disease, but rather an umbrella term for 10 unique diseases having different genetic fingerprints.
The study, conducted by scientists at the British Columbia Cancer Agency and University of British Columbia, arrived at the breakthrough finding after analyzing the DNA and RNA of 2,000 tumor samples taken from women diagnosed with breast cancer between five and ten years ago.
According to the researchers, the analysis revealed several completely new genes in the tumors that could offer the much-needed insight into breast cancer biology in regards to a tumor's response to a particular treatment, the extent of the tumor spread and its ability for recurrence.
Though the research is unlikely to benefit women who currently have breast cancer, the new finding of the landmark global study could be used by doctors to better tailor treatment to the individual patient in the future.
The study was published online April 18 in the journal Nature.
Breast cancer is one of the most common forms of cancer in women. It is estimated that every year, approximately 1.3 million women are diagnosed with breast cancer worldwide.

have some consideration!!
I've got children!
I have to take them to school in the car
because they can't possibly walk
or catch a bus
they might be abducted
by some mad lunatic who would threaten them
and it would be all your fault
because you parked outside my house
they might get wet in the rain
and then what would happen?
your fault again
or they might even get some exercise
and find themselves leading healthier lives
and chat with their mates on the bus
and work out how to dodge the bullies
and learn about life
so they could cope
when things didn't go all their own way
so they wouldn't over-react
when someone parked outside their house
and that would be your fault too

Examples: The Final Straw (happens at intervals throughout the film), The Emperor of Ice Cream
|The Final Straw
The Hero's Journey (Joseph Campbell)
1. THE ORDINARY WORLD. The hero, uneasy, uncomfortable or unaware, is introduced sympathetically so the audience can identify with the situation or dilemma. The hero is shown against a background of environment, heredity, and personal history. Some kind of polarity in the hero's life is pulling in different directions and causing stress.
2. THE CALL TO ADVENTURE. Something shakes up the situation, either from external pressures or from something rising up from deep within, so the hero must face the beginnings of change.
3. REFUSAL OF THE CALL. The hero feels the fear of the unknown and tries to turn away from the adventure, however briefly. Alternately, another character may express the uncertainty and danger ahead.
4. MEETING WITH THE MENTOR. The hero comes across a seasoned traveler of the worlds who gives him or her training, equipment, or advice that will help on the journey. Or the hero reaches within to a source of courage and wisdom.
5. CROSSING THE THRESHOLD. At the end of Act One, the hero commits to leaving the Ordinary World and entering a new region or condition with unfamiliar rules and values.
6. TESTS, ALLIES AND ENEMIES. The hero is tested and sorts out allegiances in the Special World.
7. APPROACH. The hero and newfound allies prepare for the major challenge in the Special world.
8. THE ORDEAL. Near the middle of the story, the hero enters a central space in the Special World and confronts death or faces his or her greatest fear. Out of the moment of death comes a new life.
9. THE REWARD. The hero takes possession of the treasure won by facing death. There may be celebration, but there is also danger of losing the treasure again.
10. THE ROAD BACK. About three-fourths of the way through the story, the hero is driven to complete the adventure, leaving the Special World to be sure the treasure is brought home. Often a chase scene signals the urgency and danger of the mission.
11. THE RESURRECTION. At the climax, the hero is severely tested once more on the threshold of home. He or she is purified by a last sacrifice, another moment of death and rebirth, but on a higher and more complete level. By the hero's action, the polarities that were in conflict at the beginning are finally resolved.
12. RETURN WITH THE ELIXIR. The hero returns home or continues the journey, bearing some element of the treasure that has the power to transform the world as the hero has been transformed.

A great example of the beauty of working from home that we're talking about here — not having to leave if you don't want to — is the fact that I just left the house this evening for the first time since Friday.
Most of that is due to the fact that I was sick all weekend, but it's still neat that the last time I left the house was to volunteer at my daughter's school and I've been working every day except one since then. I went out to get some orders of Chinese fried rice for supper since I hadn't taken the time or energy to come up with a decent meal today.
The leftovers will make a great lunch tomorrow, but alas! I must leave the house anyway since we are out of groceries!

Psychology Today reports that our brains have a "Negative Bias" that causes us to weight negative experiences more than positive. "Your brain is simply built with a greater sensitivity to unpleasant news. The bias is so automatic that it can be detected at the earliest stage of the brain's information processing."
What this means is that we need approximately five positive experiences to balance one negative experience. As we preach and teach it can be tempting to be negative, because we get a reaction. Hell-fire and brimstone preaching works . . . to a point. We can push the negative buttons and get a quick response, but it's not sustainable.
We need to balance our preaching and teaching with about five positives to every negative. If you need to confront sin in your church, then do it, but don't forget to call out the good things your church is doing as well. I have to confess, I needed to hear this a long time ago. I'm sorry for my over emphasis on negativity.

Corporate power fuels political corruption. With Clean Elections, citizens can take back America to stop the corporate/political revolving door.
Until we can get Clean Elections in every state, we have to choose between two major parties, The Repugs who support "Big Insurance" and "Big Drugs" and The Democrats who are willing to go to the mat for health care reform. With all the corruption in the current administration, there's no doubt we need to get a Democrat in the White House.
"The Republicans raise $10 million every month from corporate interests and lobbyists. The Democratic Party will never be able to compete in the traditional ways with a party that has abandoned the people and taken selling access and influence to a new level.
But we can do it if half a million people are giving $20 a month to change the way our political process works."
(or one million people are giving $10/mo; two million giving just $5/mo).

Have you ever watched a couple walk by and thought to yourself…
If so, you're not alone. We've all encountered THAT couple. A duo so sexy that you'd have zero qualms about letting them tag team you.
Well, if you're feeling curious about "guest-starring" in a couple's bedroom, I've come up with a few reasons why being a sexual "third" could actually be good for you:
First and foremost, It's f*cking hot.
It's also a "bucket list" experience that everyone needs to try at least once.
You get to be the center of attention for the night. Everyone's focus is on getting you off.
A guest-starring experience can broaden your sexual horizons. Sexual exploration can help you establish a clear concept of your needs/desires for future relationships.
Through the power of observation you might find your preconceived notions about relationships & monogamy slowly evolving afterwards.
In some cases, your odds of contracting an STI are lower when sleeping with a healthy, sexually open couple, as opposed to a random one off.
[Having said that, no matter how many partners are involved, safe sex is always the best sex.]
And lastly, by feeding off of their established sexual energy, you can experience the passion that is missing from most random hook-ups.
Now, I'm not saying that a threesome will fix all of your problems, but don't be so quick to dismiss the idea.
Also keep in mind that in order for a guest-star-ship to be successful you must be EXTREMELY selective about the couple you choose. Couples must also use caution when selecting a third. Partner selection, communication, and timing are imperative to making this work.
A well executed threesome can be one of the best sexual experiences of your life, but if it's not done correctly it could literally be your worst.
