If I had to choose, Mexican food may be my favorite cuisine! A few weeks ago, my sister- and brother-in-law invited us over for dinner for what they called "magic" enchiladas. We were interested to see what the filling might be, and when we got there, we were surprised to hear it was butternut squash. They got the recipe from Vegetarian Times magazine and used to make them anytime they would have people over because after trying them once, people would request them. It's not hard to see why! I didn't think to write down the recipe when we were eating them, but luckily, Kim used to blog and she posted this recipe about a year ago. So this past Friday, "magic" enchiladas were on our menu, and we enjoyed them very much!
1 Butternut Squash, cubed
1 teaspoon Olive Oil
3 ounces Cream Cheese
1 Red Onion, chopped
1 Garlic Clove, minced
2 Chipotle Chilis in Adobo, chopped
1 teaspoon Chili Powder
1/2 teaspoon Nutmeg
1/2 cup Cilantro, chopped
Salt and Pepper, to taste
6-8 Flour Tortillas (we used 10" and got 7 enchiladas)
1 can Enchilada Sauce
1/2 cup Shredded Cheese
Peel the butternut squash and cut them into 1 inch cubes. Toss them in olive oil and place the cubes on a baking sheet. Roast at 450 degrees for 40 minutes, flipping once during the cooking to ensure that they get nicely browned edges. After cooking, mash the squash with a fork and mix in the cream cheese. Meanwhile, sauté the onion and garlic in a little olive oil for about 5 minutes, or until translucent. Add the chipotle chills, chili powder, nutmeg, salt, and pepper and mix well. Add the butternut squash mixture and stir to combine. Stir in the chopped cilantro. Fill each tortilla with some of the mixture and roll it up. Place the rolled tortilla in a baking dish that has been sprayed with non-stick cooking spray. Continue until the filling is gone. Pour the enchilada sauce over the top of the rolled tortillas and sprinkle with shredded cheese. Bake at 350 degrees for 30 minutes.

Law of Attraction: Abraham-Hicks Law of Attraction Articles:
Jerry and Esther Hicks BiographyExcited about the clarity and practicality of the information from ABRAHAM yet aware of a possible misunderstanding by the general public of the phenomenon that they were personally experiencing, Jerry and Esther Hicks began, in 1986, tentatively disclosing their ABRAHAM experience to a handful of close business associates. Recognizing the positive results being received by those who began plying ABRAHAM with meaningful personal questions regarding finances, bodily conditions, relationships...the Hicks' made a conscious decision to allow ABRAHAM'S teachings to become available to an ever widening circle of seekers. And that circle continues to expand even as you read this.
ABRAHAM, a group of obviously evolved teachers, speak their broader nonphysical perspective through the physical apparatus of Esther. Speaking to our level of comprehension, from their present moment to our now, through a series of loving, allowing, brilliant yet comprehensively simple, recordings in print and in sound they guide us to a clear connection with our Inner Being they guide us to self upliftment from our total self.
Abraham material is Copyright © Jerry and Esther Hicks.
More on Jerry and Esther Hicks:
Esther Hicks - From Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaEsther Hicks is an American spirit channeler, motivational speaker, and best-selling author. Esther Hicks identifies herself as the channel for a group of non-physical beings who call themselves "Abraham". Most commonly, this channeled material is referred to under the name Abraham-Hicks. She has co-authored eight books with husband Jerry Hicks and presents workshops for Abraham-Hicks Publications. Hicks' most recent (as of March 2007) book reached second place in the New York Times best-seller list in its first week on the list.
Development of philosophy and basic teachingsEsther Hicks grew up in a religious small town environment in the Western United States. She married Jerry Hicks in 1980. Beginning in 1965, Jerry Hicks had been a devotee of the book Think and Grow Rich by Napoleon Hill, and he eventually began teaching the principles discussed in the book. He believes that the book helped him to become successful in business. After a time, however, the Hill book ceased to intrigue him.
In the early 1980s, Jerry Hicks began doing additional research on metaphysical topics. He read, and became a fan of Jane Roberts' Seth Books, which state that "you create your own reality." Initially reluctant, Esther became interested in the topics discussed in the Seth books. During that period, by 1985, Esther and Jerry encountered another channeled entity named 'Theo'. Esther and Jerry were told to meditate, and that more information would be given to them at a later time.[2] They began meditating, and they claim that they eventually began communicating with Abraham. Since then, through the communication with Abraham, they have developed a metaphysical belief system that they have popularized in their books and Abraham-Hicks workshops.
A key teaching of Abraham-Hicks is that achieving one's desires requires feeling hopeful and positive about those goals, rather than fearful. The teachings often refer to "vibrations", stating that one's thoughts affect one's vibrations that influence reality, and that thoughts therefore have an impact on the outside world. Specifically, they state that if people maintain positive feelings and align with good vibrations, good things will happen to them. Conversely, negative life experiences are created when one focuses on negative thoughts.[3]
Fundamentally, Abraham-Hicks teaches that your experiences in life are a direct reflection of your feelings and what you are focusing on. Abraham-Hicks asserts that your feelings are your guidance system, allowing you to recognize when you are heading toward something that you want, or away from what you want. Recognizing that everything in the universe is energy, Abraham-Hicks says that one must think and feel the thought in order for the thought to manifest as a particular experience or object in our reality. They use the following analogy: What happens when you say or act one way but think another is like what happens when a radio is tuned to 89.3 FM trying to receive a signal being broadcast on 1050 AM.
Abraham asserts that we have so much control of our physical environment, that things like aging and physical disease are influenced and controlled by our thoughts and emotions.
Outline of Abraham-Hicks' basic idealsAbraham-Hicks outlines its teachings as follows:
1. You are a Physical Extension of that which is Non-physical.

Greetings All!
I recently got some new plates from MoYou London, and more than one of them had a rose design on it. Of course they're the first on my nails - I do love my roses!
The plate in question is MoYou Princess XL 12, stamped with Barry M Gelly in Plum over Color Club Wicker Park. To be honest, it's not my favourite rose design ever. I think it would make a good stamped decal though!

The problem of rising price to develop F-35is a serious concern on the Hill. In view of ongoing sequestration, the Joint Strike Fighter project can squeeze other defense needs. Originally, F-35 was supposed to be money saving and multipurpose plane. However, continuous engine and software troubles lead to delays in its deployment and skyrocketing price. When an engine trouble happened on June 23 this year, all F-35s grounded for inspection. Senator John McCain calls F-35 as the worst example "of the military-industrial-congressional complex," while other senators, including Sen. James Inhofe, are mostly optimistic with this problem ("The Pentagon's $399 Billion Plane to Nowhere"; Foreign Policy; July 8, 2014).
Among US allies, proponents for this
fighter, such as Professor Narushige Michishita at the National Graduate
Institute for Policy Studies in Tokyo, argued that F-35 would be the best option
for Japan. "If this was about a Cold War-type competition, then the F-22
would have been better. But if this is a long-term peacetime competition, you
need numbers and presence, and close coordination among allies," he says. On the
other hand, Carlo Kopp, Defense Analyst at Air Power Australia, an Australian
think tank, warned that it would erode defense capability of the United States
and its allies, due to complicated technology that would make it costly ("Struggling
in US, F-35 fighter pushes sales abroad"; FOX News; January 27, 2012).
Regarding technological problems, some
experts see that F-35 is overweight and underpowered. In order to satisfy
requirements of the Air force, the Navy, Marine Corps, and allied partners, this single
engine fighter has come to weigh 35t, while twin engine F-15 weighs 40t. Even if engine
problems can be resolved soon, some analysts worry fundamental design flaws ("Pentagon's
big budget F-35 fighter 'can't turn, can't climb, can't run'"; Reuters News; July
14, 2014). In addition, due to a multi-partite joint project, its software becomes too
complicated. As a result, F-35 will be deployed in 2016, ten years since its
first flight ("Why
Is The US Military Spending So Much Money On The F-35 Fighter Jet?"; Business
Insider; February 21, 2014).One fits for all fighter can become
overweight and technically halfbaked as seen in the F-111 project by Secretary of
Defense-then Robert McNamara of the Kennedy era.
Technological complexity in machinery and
software snowballs the price. Though F-35 was supposed be more reasonably
cost than F-22, the price per plane grown year by year. It is estimated that
the unit cost will $148 million for F35A, $232 million for F35B, and $337 million
for F-35C in 2015. Meanwhile F-22 costs "only" $150 million per plane. Now,
F-35 symbolizes unaccountable connections between the Department of Defense and
Lockheed Martin ("How DOD's $1.5 Trillion F-35 Broke the Air Force"; Fiscal
Times; July 31, 2014).
Despite budget constraints, F-35 remains a priority
for the next generation fighter as the Air force will focus on high tech weapons
("Air Force Plans Shift to
Obtain High-Tech Weapon Systems"; New York Times; July 30, 2014). Though some
scale back can happen in the total number to be deployed, Professor Gordon Adams of the
American University comments that F-35 program is too big to fail. Since
Lockheed Martin operates in 45 states, lawmakers need their presence to sustain
employment in their constituencies ("Why Is The US Military
Spending So Much Money On The F-35 Fighter Jet?"; Business Insider; February
21, 2014). What McCain calls "the military-industrial-congressional complex"
makesthe project increasingly nontransparent.
Considering ongoing troubles associated
with the F-35 program and Congressional debates in the United States, American
allies need to reexamine the problem. If it delays too much, and its price snowballs
furthermore, some of the original plan may have to be revised. In any case, it
is most vital to watch Congressional testimonies in Washington very carefully.
In addition, allies need to exchange information among themselves. For example,
Japan can gather much information from experts in Britain beyond the Cameron administration, because the options for Japan's
FX fighters and Britain's flight squadrons for the next aircraft carriers
overlap: F35, Typhoon, F/A18 Super Hornet. Britain is the Level 1 partner of
the Joint Strike Fighter project, and exploring defense partnership with Japan.
Also, we need keen attention to the progress of stealth programs in Russia and
China.Taking all things into account, American allies can
judge whether to buy all F-35s as originally planned, or explore some portion
of alternatives for their plans.

Nick Cave's Tondo Installation Images
One particular memory that has stuck with Nick Cave from his childhood is lying on the ground with some of his seven brothers, looking up at the stars on summer nights and trying to make out the constellations. "It's right there, look!" he recalls exclaiming to his siblings. "It's that place of innocence where something so mundane can be so transformative." Those starry memories inspired Constellation (2006)—a flat, circular work he calls a "tondo"—which offers a kind of fantastical view of the cosmos.
Nick Cave: Sojourn is a special ticketed exhibition on view June 9-September 22, 2013.
Nick Cave: Sojourn is organized by the Denver Art Museum. The exhibition is made possible through the significant support of Vicki and Kent Logan, U.S. Bank, and PB&K Family Foundation. Additional funding is provided by the generous donors to the Annual Fund Leadership Campaign and the citizens who support the Scientific and Cultural Facilities District (SCFD). Promotional support is provided by 5280 Magazine, CBS4, and The Denver Post.

Projective Bundle Theorem in Homology Theories with Chern Structure
Panin and Smirnov deduced the existence of push-forwards, along projective morphisms, in a cohomology theory with cup products, from the assumption that the theory is endowed with an extra structure called orientation. A part of their work is a proof of the Projective Bundle Theorem in cohomology based on the assumption that we have the first Chern class for line bundles. In some examples we have to consider a pair of theories, cohomology and homology, related by a cap product. It would be useful to construct transfer maps (pull-backs) along projective morphisms in homology in such a situation under similar assumptions. In this note we perform the projective bundle theorem part of this project in homology.

Statistical sources and analysis
1.5 Job-to job mobility
The EUROSTAT database on Science and Technology includes job-to-job mobility of human resources in science and technology (HRST). This indicator shows the percentage of persons that have changed jobs over a one year period15. The following graphs show the trends for this variable from 1999 to 2005 for the Euro area, EU25, EU15, Spain and Italy, women and men separately. A third graph shows the data for Ireland only covering the period 1995 to 1997 (only data available at the close of this report).
The first thing to note is the increasing mobility in Science and Technology jobs for women in Ireland and Spain as opposed to the declining mobility overall in the EU (including Italy) since 2004. Non the less, during the 1999-2005 period the trend for Italy has also been positive, but lower than in the other two study countries. A second striking feature is that the percentage of women moving from one science and technology job to another in Spain and Ireland is higher than that of men. While in both Spain and Ireland, based on the data shown, mens mobility seems to be stabilising while womens mobility continues to grow, in Italy womens mobility seems to be decreasing while mens mobility is increasing. Finally, it is interesting to note that Ireland has the highest mobility rates out of all the study countries and much higher than the EU averages, at least for the period shown.
While the previous graphs show some positive trends for women in Ireland and Spain, it is very important to understand what drives the change in jobs in order to draw lessons that can be applied more generally. The following graph indicates the percentage of fixed term contracts16 in the study countries and can help to clarify important differences between them. In the case of Ireland, with the highest and growing rates of mobility for women, the proportion of fixed term employment is one of the lowest in the whole of the EU but women have a slightly higher rate of fixed term contracts than men. On the other hand, with also very high rates of job-to-job mobility for women, we observe that Spain has the highest rate of fixed term employment in the whole of the EU and that it is higher for women than for men (almost 5 percentage points higher). This means that, in principle, there are two very different factors driving the high mobility rates and that they result in very different outcomes in terms of conditions and pay as well as the impact on the overall economic performance can be found in the two countries. While in Ireland the high job-to job mobility rate is likely to have a positive impact (and mobility is voluntary), in the case of Spain the high turnover and lack of job security can lead to a negative impact, especially in terms of productivity. However, it would also be important to know if mobility in Ireland has a gender component, in that changes between jobs could be due not to pay and conditions improvements and voluntary causes, but to causes linked to unpaid care or other involuntary factors including bounded mobility17.
Source: Employment un Europe 2006, statistical annex, key employment indicators
In the case of Italy, women also have a higher fixed-term contract proportion then men, with a similar difference with Spain of 5 percentage points. Here another explanation or model might be behind the lower mobility rates. While fixed term contract affect other sectors, the IT sector might be less affected by this type of contracts. Also, as human resources become scarcer (employers might have retention policies in place) or there is less willingness by workers to move, the mobility rates might be affected.
These figures also need to be contrasted with more general figures on mobility. The Eurobarometer on job mobility in the career of European workers18 indicates that the average age of entry to the labour market is at 19 years of age for Europeans. In the EU, the average percentage of people (over 35) that have never worked is still a significant 8%. The values of those who have never worked varies noticeably with gender, while only 1% of all men older than 35 have never worked, this figure grows to 13% for women. This figure can be linked to the unpaid care work segment.
In relation to the levels of job mobility, the average number of jobs that people in the EU have held is of 3,9 and the average job duration in Europe is calculated to be 8,3 years. However, almost 25% of European workers over 35 have been classified as never mobile, that is they have never changed employer in their career.
Regarding the most recent change in employer, around 8% of EU workers changed employer in the past year, while 32% changed employer at least once in the past 5 years and 50% in the last 10 years.
|Table 2 Different indicators comparing job mobility data available for EU25, Ireland, Spain and, Italy, 2005
|Percentage of people who have never worked
|Percentage of people who have never changed employer
|Average job duration
|Percentage of people mobile in the last year
|Percentage of people mobile in the last 5 years
|Note: Except for the average job duration, all values for people over 35 years
|Source; 2005 Eurobarometer survey on geographical and labour market mobility
According to the survey, Italy and Spain are at the top of the EU rankings in the percentage of people that have never worked (1st and 3rd respectively), while values for Ireland are much closer to EU25 averages. All three countries are above EU25 average in the percentage of people who have never changed employer, although values for Italy are significantly higher than for Ireland and Spain. In relation to the average duration, Ireland and Spain rank at EU25 average, while Italy scores almost one percentage point higher. Data for recent job mobility indicates that Ireland has the highest percentage of mobile workers in recent times, followed closely by Spain while values for recent job mobility in Italy are considerably lower. The overall view from the comparative table suggests that Ireland and Spain have similar levels of mobility in their labour force while Italy has a significantly less mobile work environment.

Looking back at 2006 and "The Tech 2006 person of the year award"
|By MARK OLLIG
How can another year be drawing to a close so quickly?
It seems like we just started 2006 and here we are during this last week getting ready to say good-bye to 2006 and hello to 2007.
What new emerging high-technological devices, software programs and internet-society popularism will we see for the first time in 2007.
How will these new computing discoveries be used in our daily lives at home, in school, and at our workplaces?
Do you sometimes find yourself many times wondering, "What will I need to learn next?"
I do, too.
It is a given that learning is a lifelong process in today's rapidly changing and high-tech world.
I do not agree with the old saying: "You can't teach an old dog new tricks." This old dog has been learning new things for a long time.How about using this saying: "It's never too soon nor too late for learning." I find this adage to be not only more accurate and precise but much more pleasing to this dog's ears.
I looked back at some of my columns that I wrote for you during this last year, which essentially amounts to the last six months . . .The Bits & Bytes column "resumed" in June of this year after a "brief" eight year sabbatical.
In 1998 I thought we had become very tech-savvy and advanced. As we come to the close on 2006, we have come a very long way indeed with only more computer and internet technological surprises to come.
It is interesting to note some of the new jargon that is being used today, here are some of the more popular words: "Blogs," "Bloggers," "YouTube," "The Net," "Google-It," "Online Social-Networking," "User-Generated-Content," "VoIP," "Virtual," "E-Bay," "IPTV," "Cut and Paste," "Gamer," "iPods," "Wi-Fi," "IM," "Chat" and those annoying "Pop-Up-Ads."
There are, of course, many other Internet and high-tech jargon words out there. The internet jargon/slang list just keeps growing. If you want to learn more you can visit this link: http://www.netlingo.com which is a resource for new users and industry professionals, as well as a reference for students and educators. Netlingo contains thousands of Internet definitions and useful computing resources.
In 2006 we learned that Microsoft's founder Bill Gates would be stepping down to pursue more philanthropic pursuits.
Speaking of Microsoft, they introduced the new Vista operating program to us in November. This new next generation computer operating system is designed to replace the current Windows XP version that most PC users have installed. Home users will be able to upgrade to XP in January of 2007.
Also in November, Netcraft, which is an Internet security and researching firm that has been keeping track of the number of Internet Service Providers (ISPs), web servers, and websites on the Internet, released in their estimated November survey that there is an amazing 101,435,253 websites online.
We saw in 2006 Google's purchase of the popular user-generated content website "YouTube" in October for an amazing sum of $1.7 billion.
Finding the most current and reliable information over the Internet was the topic for a recent 2006 Bits & Bytes column. That column talked about "RSS," which stands for "Rich Site Summary" or "Really Simple Syndication." RSS is like getting a direct news feed automatically sent to your computer on the subjects you pick from the website that you want the information from.
A 2006 column I enjoyed writing for you was how President Abraham Lincoln made use of what is very similar to today's e-mail. The version Lincoln used over the telegraph at that time, could be more appropriately called "T-mail."
This is where Lincoln would send out his telegraph messages, correspondences and even his encouragement to his generals and commanders in the field.
I learned after writing the column that hot air balloons used to scout the Confederate positions were also relaying information by telegraph back to President Lincoln. Telegraph wires were strung from a ground station to the basket of the "fixed positioned" hot air balloons which would be at an elevated point in the sky. The operator in the gondola would be telegraphing the messages.
The subject of "Net Neutrality," which I editorialized about in the October 30th column, made news in 2006 also.
Network Neutrality has been defined as an "Internet operating principle which ensures that all online users are entitled to access Internet content of their choice; run online applications and services of their choice; connect their choice of devices that do not harm the network; and have open competition among networks, applications, services and content providers."
With "Net Neutrality," the network's only job is to move data not choose which data to privilege with higher quality service. Net Neutrality prevents the companies that control the wires or "pipes" from discriminating against content based on its source or ownership.
The top world-wide Google search terms in 2006 included "Borat Sagiyev," a fictional Kazakhstani journalist, "Paris Hilton" and "Hezbollah." These were among the terms Internet users were most eager to learn about this year, according to Google.
"Google search queries, when seen in volume, tend to reflect what is collectively on our minds day in and day out," Google said in a released statement.
2006 is also the year we celebrated Apple Computerss 30th anniversary. It is interesting to note that in 1970s, Steve Jobs and Steve Wozniak were going door-to-door at the University of California Berkeley dorms selling those "blue boxes" which were electronic devices that tricked the telephone network into allowing free long-distance phone calls.
Fortunately for the technology world, the pair reorganized and started making computers.
Now, 30 years after its founding, Apple Computer has grown from a tiny start-up to a household name and cultural icon known as much for its iPod digital music players as it is known for computers.
For more archived columns of Bits & Bytes, you can visit the Journal's link at: http://herald-journal.com/news/bits.html.
Without further delay . . .the first annual Bits & Bytes "Tech Person of the Year" award goes to (drum roll please). . . YOU.
Well, if Time Life magazine can bestow this high honor on all of us, I figure so can this humble columnist.

2008 B Macro FRQ #3
(A) Calculate this year's nominal gross domestic product (GDP).
The GDP Cheat Sheet here.
Nominal GDP is simply this years GDP,
Price of the goods this year multiplied by the quantity produced
(B) Assume that in Gala Land the GDP deflator (GDP price index) is 100 in the base year and 150 this year. Calculate the following.
(i) The inflation rate, expressed as a percentage, between base year and this year.
It should be clear that inflation increased by 50%. I don't know how to say this differently or better or clearer. Someone should help me.
(ii) This years real GDP.
So, if they had gave us base year prices and another years quantity, we would have used this formula.
but they didn't so,
We have to understand that Real GDP means taking into account the level of inflation. Prices have risen by 50% this year.
It is easy to think that since prices rose by 50% that we should just half the 6000 and say that the real GDP is 3000 (and that would be incorrect)
BUT, recognise that $4000 x 50% rise in prices would be, $4000 x .5 = $2000 and $2000 + $4000 = $6000.
(C) Since the base year, workers have received a 20% increase in their nominal wages. If workers face the same inflation rate as was calculated in (b) (ii) (50%), what has happened to real wages? Explain.
If workers get a 20% raise but prices of all the things they buy rise to 50%, then their real wages have dropped by 30%. Remember that real wages take into account inflation.
from the cheat sheet.
(D) If the GDP deflator in Gala Land increases unexpectedly, would a borrower with a fixed interest rate loan be better or worse off? Explain.
If the GDP deflator increases then inflation has increased. A borrower would be paying back money that is able to purchase less goods, therefore the borrower would be better off. You bought a good that would now, cost you, significantly more money.

For Your Eyes Only
Senator Edward Morra has been making headlines for years, but there's a lot the public doesn't know about this political heavyweight. Intelligent, wealthy, and well-connected, he seems capable of anything. At the same time, he needs people he can trust.
This file contains what little we really know about Morra—and his plans for Brian Finch. It remains unclear exactly what he has in store for Finch, but we're starting to get a glimpse.

Vinokourov has been training with the Italian, who has been linked with drugs allegations but had a suspended prison sentence reversed.
"Ferrari has never offered me any medicine. He is only in charge of my physical preparation," the Kazakh said.
"I know the way he works and I know I have nothing to be ashamed of."
Vinokourov is considered one of the leading lights for this year's race, which starts with the opening time trial in London on Saturday.
His best finish in Le Tour was third overall in 2003 but several leading names from the last few years, including last year's winner Floyd Landis, are absent because of drug allegations.
Vinokourov, who also came fifth in 2005, was one of last year's favourites but Astana had to withdraw after several of the team were implicated in the Operation Puerto doping scandal.
"Vino", who two months later won the Tour of Spain, was not involved himself but was left without enough team-mates to compete.
Ferrari has worked in the past with seven-times Tour winner Lance Armstrong - who defended the relationship in similar fashion - and Vinokourov's manager Tony Rominger.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Bob's Track Builder' started by sunalp2, Oct 4, 2009.
Can you?
I'd like to be able to use it for adding ARMCO.
I've tried to edit the XML's to make this possible but I think I must be missing something.
Has anyone tried it, or could you tell me the best way to add a string of Armco?
When I use the Add Object function the Armco is all over the place and doesn't join up.
use xpacker, added save object has a normal , then goto so-objects and added them there.
start,middle,end .just added objects to all three areas.
rough example below
Thanks ed, I'll give it a go.

I'v got a quick post for you all showing a polish which I wore a little while ago and took a load of crappy pictures of it and then decided not to make a post about it lol! But then I though I might as well... =]
The polish is super duper old and is called Sonic by the brand Spectacular, who sold loads of cosmetics during the 90's!
This polish was given to me from my mum =] She said she was too 'mature' to wear glitters like this now! =P
I managed to capture a few slightly decent pictures of this AWESOME glitter polish, so here they are:
Yupp I'm holding onto a bottle of topcoat! Why? Well because the actual bottle of polish has this huge holographic label on it and my camera kept freaking out at the sight of it and focusing stupidly on the bottle and not my nails! So photos of my hands holding onto the bottle looked blurry and washed out!
A little like above! This was the only 'good' picture I could get with the bottle in the photo.
Sonic is a pretty pink/lilac shade filled with a ton of micro gold glitter and strands of green and purple glitters. Funky huh?
Do you guys own any very old polishes? Worn some recently??

About Original Art Pieces
There is something so very special about owning a piece of original art.
Not only can a piece of art delightfully accentuate a space, an original can also lend it's very own energy and breathe live and soul into a space through it's colors, texture and the story it tells in all it's own unique ways! And with it a space is transformed!
There is something entirely unique about an original. To the touch. To the eye .... from close up and again, differently, from a distance.
When I paint, I follow the energy of whatever moves (through) me at the time! Often it can't be put into words. But it can be put into color, texture, movement, and eventually, a subject matter.
Creating art brings me a great sense of joy, fulfillment and peace! It is my innermost expression, as well as my meditation. The act of creating is what I LOVE to do!
The exploration of my own personal journey, manifesting in some way or another, but always creatively, that is the gift to me. And through all the ups and downs - I love every single minute I get to create and shape the expressions on canvas or in other artful ways!
What is ultimately born from this - that is my offering to you!
If it speaks to you - it is meant for YOU!
I find that my paintings are very hard to truly capture in photographs. I use quite a bit of shimmering paints and splatters, textures and many, many different layers of paint and patterns, which makes the paintings come alive in person and gives you a different shimmer, color or movement, every time you look at it! However, this doesn't translate very well to the more "flat" limitations of photography!

The way of the body is the way of limitation and tribulation
People sometimes ask, "Why are bodily pleasures spoken of so negatively in the Bhagavad-gita?"
The Bhagavad-gita recommends restraint in bodily indulgence not to deprive us of happiness, but to help us fulfill our potential for happiness. The Gita explains that we are at our core eternal souls who have the potential to enduring happiness. When seen in the light of that potential, the pleasure delivered by the body is limited and distress-filled.
Even the best of bodily pleasures, no matter how glamorized they may be, are extremely short-lived. We may dream and toil to get those pleasures for years, yet they get over within minutes. The perpetually-hyped sexual pleasure ends so quickly that we are left craving for more but without the capacity for more because the body's capacity is exhausted. Thus, the way of the body, that is, the way in which we make bodily pleasures our life's primary goal, is the way of limitation. Indeed, our search for lasting happiness is constantly thwarted by the limitedness of our body's capacity to enjoy.
Moreover, the way of the body is the way of tribulation. By the inexorable power of time, the body undergoes deterioration and destruction. The more we pursue pleasures through the body, the more our consciousness gets locked in it, thereby increasing our torment when we undergo disease, old age and death. No wonder the Bhagavad-gita (05.22) cautions that bodily pleasures are the sources of misery.
Gita wisdom reveals a way far better than this way of limitation and tribulation: the way of the soul. This spiritual way centers on connecting the soul with the whole, the all-attractive Supreme, Krishna. When we thus link with Krishna by practicing bhakti-yoga, we progress towards the supreme spiritual happiness that takes us forever beyond limitation and tribulation.

|The current SCP-XXXX-A-1 as of 23/09/1994.
Item #: SCP-XXXX
Object Class: Safe
Special Containment Procedures: No personnel with tattoos may enter SCP-XXXX's containment chamber except as required by Protocol RANCID OPTICS. Cameras in the chamber will monitor all known and suspected instances at all times for anomalous movement.
Monthly termination of personnel bearing XXXX-A tattoos is suspended indefinitely. The personnel currently bearing XXXX-A tattoos are to be kept fully restrained at all times to prevent movement. The restraints shall be placed such that a line of sight exists between SCP-XXXX-A-1 and object XXXX-A-2, between object XXXX-A-2 and object XXXX-A-3, and not between SCP-XXXX-A-1 and object XXXX-A-3.
Upon confirmation of object XXXX-A-2 as an instance of SCP-XXXX, Protocol RANCID OPTICS should be scheduled as a Grade C priority.
Instances of SCP-XXXX-B shall be stored in opaque containers under protocols for medium-hazard inert biological matter, and treated as potential instances of SCP-XXXX.
Description: Because there is no currently known means of identifying a tattoo as SCP-XXXX except during propagation, the exact requirements for a candidate host are unclear. As of this writing, only images of eyes tattooed on the skin of a living human have been confirmed as instances of SCP-XXXX, and propagation has only been confirmed across direct line of sight. Any deviation from this should be reported to Dr. Stafford.
When a tattoo is an instance of SCP-XXXX, it will occasionally wink. The bearer of the tattoo has never reported any sensation associated with this, and is generally unaware of the event unless informed. Any tattoo with at least one eye that is within direct line of sight of this event may become an SCP-XXXX instance as well; this effect is referred to as "propagation".
The frequency of propagation while in containment has been markedly lower than suggested by initial reconnaissance reports from MTF-Omicron-63 ("Wilmington Swelter"). In addition, propagation events have so far only occurred when at least three additional personnel were present in SCP-XXXX's containment chamber. Because of this, Researcher Bryson has suggested that propagation may be encouraged by the presence of larger numbers of humans. Further testing is currently not indicated for budgetary reasons.
Addendum [Protocol RANCID OPTICS]: Terminate personnel bearing SCP-XXXX-A-1. Excise section of skin bearing SCP-XXXX-A-1 and reclassify as SCP-XXXX-B. Reclassify object XXXX-A-2 as SCP-XXXX-A-1. Reclassify object XXXX-A-3 as object XXXX-A-2.
Select one (1) healthy D-personnel no older than thirty (30) years. Apply a suitable1 tattoo; a large, simple design in a prominent area is indicated. Classify tattoo as Object XXXX-A-3.
Adjust containment of XXXX-A objects in accordance with new classifications. Object XXXX-A-3 should be covered while introducing associated personnel to containment chamber, in order to minimize risk of accidental exposure to SCP-XXXX-A-1.
Update Log XXXX-3N0C.
Addendum [Log XXXX-3N0C]: Existing instances of SCP-XXXX-B:
|Date entered
Note (15/05/1953): Multiple personnel involved in containment of SCP-XXXX have reported feelings of unease while in the presence of the object. Requesting permission to test SCP-XXXX for possible mind-affecting properties. — Researcher Becker
Note (20/05/1953): Permission granted. — Site Director █████
Addendum (03/06/1953): Twenty D-class test subjects were shown images of SCP-XXXX. Ten (the experiment group) had previously been informed of its anomalous properties, and ten (the control group) had no prior exposure to or knowledge of SCP-XXXX. Eight subjects from the experiment group and one subject from the control group expressed discomfort after viewing the images. Psychological effects of SCP-XXXX deemed non-anomalous. Subjects returned to the pool.
Note (04/06/1953): I don't care what you say, that thing is watching me. — Junior Researcher Arnett
Note (04/08/1987): Computer-aided meta-analysis has discovered that eleven out of the fourteen researchers currently or formerly assigned to SCP-XXXX have displayed symptoms of blepharospasm, including two who have never entered SCP-XXXX's containment chamber.. Requesting additional funds to investigate possibility of previously-unknown vectors of SCP-XXXX contagion. — Researcher Becker
Note (15/08/1987): Denied. Just because you can't get a transfer doesn't entitle you to pretend your skip is some sort of uncontainable superplague. — Site Director ████████

GBBD: Rhubarb and Custard
Just after I took this photo, I cut the flower stems off at the base. Rhubarb flowers are said to weaken the plant, so I don't want to put mine at risk. However, apparently the seeds can be ground into a flour which makes very good pancakes if you don't mind sacrificing a plant or two.
I'm not sure if flowering rhubarb means it's mature and happy or stressed. This is the third year mine has flowered and there's been plenty of discussion on the internet in previous years on why this might be. Overfeeding with nitrogen (forgot to manure mine last winter); a damp summer (last summer was dry, though the two previous ones were very damp); the plant needs dividing (it's over 5 years old so this could be true); the result of a decent cold period (which rhubarb needs to do well and we've certainly had the last three winters) have all been given as possible reasons.
No matter what the reason may be, I've found that cutting the flowers ASAP does the plant no harm and it continues to crop well. So there's lots more bowls of rhubarb and custard to come :)

Cobh SAC member, Danny Kane, was out on a sharking trip during the week. The weather has been so settled and good of late that a trip to target the blues has been on the cards for some time. Danny and three others set off for the grounds south of the Ling Rocks, stopping off on the way out for bait. Would you believe, within 20 minutes of setting up the rubby dubby bags they had their first run. They had set up five rods, Danny putting two rods out himself, and the first run did come to Danny. Danny was later to regret putting two rods out as he had a double hook up. However, being quite used to juggling, Danny managed to actually land both fish!!!
Sport for the afternoon was hectic. In all they had 14 runs and managed to land 10 blues. The smallest of the shark was about 50lbs with the biggest going to 100lbs. What an afternoon's fishing, and would you believe this all happened within the space of 3 hours. One of the lads had to go to work so they couldn't stay out any longer. Imagine the fishing if they could have stayed!

Mysteries of The Crystal Skulls
[media id=50 width=500 height=400]
Marin County has had its share of visiting rock stars, but never one quite like Max the crystal skull.Max is purportedly one of 13 ancient crystal skulls in the world believed to have supernatural and mystical powers. They were the inspiration for last year's George Lucas blockbuster "Indiana Jones and the Kingdom of the Crystal Skulls," which greatly enhanced Max's mystique and celebrity.
"Max is a rock star, literally," smiled Aravel Garduno, a New Age practitioner of crystal healing who is Max's Marin host for the weekend.
Max had a lot of spirits to energize. Dozens had signed up for meditation and "activation" sessions with him, paying up to $100 for a one-hour private session, $65 for a half-hour session and $35 to be part of a group.
Through Parks, Max was scheduled to deliver a "message for humanity" at a Friday evening "Crystal Messenger" event at Open Secret Bookstore in San Rafael that was $35 at the door.

US star rumoured to be releasing follow up to 2012 album 'Wrecking Ball' in January
Bruce Springsteen will reportedly release a new album in early 2014.
Both Billboard and Rolling Stone report that the US star will release the follow up to 2012's 'Wrecking Ball' next year with Billboard stating that the release could be as soon as January. Earlier this week new track 'High Hopes', featuring Rage Against The Machine's Tom Morello on guitar, leaked online.
'High Hopes' isn't a totally new song and that a version of the track – originally released in 1990 by The Havalinas – features on Springsteen's 1996 EP 'Blood Brothers'. However, Springsteen has recently reworked older material for newer releases, such as 'Land of Hope And Dreams' on 'Wrecking Ball'. It is possible that the new version was recorded over the summer during Springsteen's tour dates in Australia, when he revealed that he had visited a studio and "did a couple of things that I wanted to put down".
Meanwhile, it was recently reported that a US university is offering a theology class on Bruce Springsteen. Rutgers University in New Jersey is offering students the chance to take a semester-long class looking at the biblical references in The Boss' lyrics – from his 1973 debut 'Greetings From Asbury Park, NJ' to his 2012 album 'Wrecking Ball'.
As Time magazine pointed out, Rutgers is not the first US university to bring The Boss into the realms of academia. Princeton University has a sociology course on Bruce Springsteen's America, while Monmouth University in West Long Branch, New Jersey has hosted symposiums on the rock star's legacy. Meanwhile, the University of Rochester in Rochester, New York offered a history course on the musician.

And as to my worldly property of which I shall die possessed, or to which I shall be entitled at the time of my decease, I devise, bequeath and dispose thereof in the manner following, to wit:- I give devise and bequeath to my beloved wife Emma Mercer and my beloved child Lewis Mercer, equal shares in all my land dwelling house, outhouses, furniture and all movable property, the right of my wife to my property to cease should she marry again, and her said right to revert to my beloved son Lewis Mercer to have and to hold to the said Lewis Mercer his heirs assigns and administration for ever And, lastly, I do nominate and appoint my wife Emma Mercer to be the executrix of this my last will and testament. In witness whereof I the said John Mercer, have to this my last will and testament subscribed my name this twenty eight day of December in the year of our Lord one thousand, nine hundred and sixteen. -John Mercer- Signed sealed and delivered by the said John Mercer as and for his last will and testament, in the presence of us who at his request & in the presence, and in the presence of each other, have subscribed our names as witnesses thereunto Witnesses Nathan Russell John Mercer.
Correct Charles H. Emerson
(Listed in the margin next to this will the following)
|Note: The wills in those will books are NOT actual wills.
They are hand-written copies of a, "last will and testament," written
by the court clerk, after the death of the testator, when the executor
presented them to the court for probate. The court clerk didn't list
the signatures at the bottom, he (or she) just put them in the book
in whatever order they were in, on the original document, no spacing
most of the time, no punctuation. The originals were kept by the executor.
We who have typed these wills, have made every effort to include all the errors that were on the microfilm, in order to avoid destroying the integrity of the originals, where ever they may be.

tag:kinderman.net,2005:/tag/gem kinderman.net : Tag gem, everything about gem code code code 2009-11-04T16:58:32-08:00 Typo tag:kinderman.net,2005:Article/110 2009-11-01T19:36:22-08:00 2009-11-04T16:58:32-08:00 ryan Introducing Spectie, a behavior-driven-development library for RSpec
I'm a firm believer in the importance of top-down and behavior-driven development. I often start writing an integration test as the first step to implementing a story. When I started doing Rails development, the expressiveness of Ruby encouraged me to start building a DSL to easily express the way I most-often wrote integration tests. In the pre-RSpec days, this was just a subclass of ActionController::IntegrationTest that encapsulated the session management code to simplify authoring tests from the perspective of a single user. As the behavior-driven development idea started taking hold, I adapted the DSL to more-closely match those concepts, and finally integrated it with RSpec. The result of this effort was Spectie (rhymes with necktie).

The primary goal of Spectie is to provide a simple, straight-forward way for developers to write BDD-style integration tests for their projects in a way that is most natural to them, using existing practices and idioms of the Ruby language.

Here is a simple example of the Spectie syntax in a Rails integration test:

Feature "Compelling Feature" do Scenario "As a user, I would like to use a compelling feature" do Given :i_have_an_account, :email => "firstname.lastname@example.com" And :i_have_logged_in When :i_access_a_compelling_feature Then :i_am_presented_with_stunning_results end def i_have_an_account(options) @user = create_user(options[:email]) end def i_have_logged_in log_in_as @user end def i_access_a_compelling_feature get compelling_feature_path response.should be_success end def i_am_presented_with_stunning_results response.should have_text("Simply stunning!") end end

Install

Spectie is available on GitHub, Gemcutter, and RubyForge. The following should get it installed quickly for most people:

% sudo gem install spectie

For more information on using Spectie, visit http://github.com/ryankinderman/spectie.

Why not Cucumber or Coulda?

At the time that this is being written, Cucumber is the new hotness in BDD integration testing. My reasons for sticking with Spectie instead of switching to Cucumber like the rest of the world are as follows:

Using regular expressions in place of normal Ruby method names seems like a potential maintenance nightmare, above and beyond the usual potential.

The layer of indirection that is created in order to write tests in plain text doesn't seem worth the cost of maintenance in most cases.

Separating a feature from its "step definitions" seems mostly unnecessary. I like keeping my scenarios and steps in one file until the feature becomes sufficiently big that it warrants extra organizational consideration.

These reasons are more-or-less the same as those given by Evan Light, who recently published Coulda, which is his solution for avoiding the cuke. What sets Spectie apart from Coulda is its reliance on and integration with RSpec. The Spectie 'Feature' statement has the same behavior as an RSpec 'describe' statement, and the 'Scenario' statement is the same as the RSpec 'example' and 'it' statements. By building on RSpec, Spectie can take advantage of the contextual nesting provided by RSpec, and rely on RSpec to provide the BDD-style syntax within what I've been calling a scenario statement (the words after the Given/When/Thens). Coulda is built directly on Test::Unit. I'm a firm believer in code reuse, and RSpec is the de facto standard for writing BDD-style tests. Spectie, then, is a feature-driven skin on top of RSpec for writing BDD-style integration tests. To me, it only makes sense to do things that way; as RSpec evolves, so will Spectie.

For those of you using the composite_primary_keys gem as of version 0.9.0, you may encounter an issue if you try to do something like:

class Reading < ActiveRecord::Base belongs_to :reader, :class_name => "User" end

When a User is loaded up from the database via the reader association, the CPK modification to ActiveRecord::Reflection::AssociationReflection#primary\_key\_name incorrectly returns "user_id" as the primary key name. If you encounter this issue, I've submitted a patch against revision 124 that can be obtained here.

Hopefully this will get fixed in the next release. More hopefully, I won't need to care by then.

Adoption of 802.11n MIMO with multiple transmit streams will help boost the market for Wi-Fi power amplifier modules to twice its 2008 size despite continued pricing pressure.
"As prices for single-stream 802.11n (1 x 1) chips dropped to match 802.11g, OEMs have quickly begun to switch from 802.11g to 802.11n in new products. Consequently, 802.11n will ship in more than half of all Wi-Fi systems by the end of 2010," says Christopher Taylor, Director of the RF and Wireless Components service.
Not only will 802.11n quickly replace 802.11g, but as Wi-Fi continues to proliferate in new devices and applications, multi-stream MIMO configurations of 802.11n (i.e. 2 x 2, 3 x 3 and 4 x 4, transmit x receive) will rapidly grow in support of demand for greater range, faster file transfers and streaming multimedia in many of these applications. Taylor notes, "According to the Strategy Analytics forecast model, which considers MIMO stream adoption rates by application, 802.11n will push the Wi-Fi power amp market to almost $1 B over the next five years."
SiGe Semiconductor has established a firm lead in power amplifiers despite increasing competition from GaAs PA module specialists such as Skyworks, RFMD, TriQuint and ANADIGICS. "A relatively small and nimble company, SiGe Semiconductor owes much of its success to concentrating its resources almost exclusively on Wi-Fi PA modules," notes Asif Anwar, Director of the Strategy Analytics GaAs and Compound Semiconductor market research service.
Strategy Analytics has published its latest findings on Wi-Fi and Wi-Fi power amplifiers and ICs in two reports: "Wi-Fi Radio Component Forecast 2009 - 2013: New Applications & MIMO Drive Growth," and "Wi-Fi Radio Component Vendor Share and Outlook: Broadcom & SiGe Semi Positioned to Maintain Leads," both published by the Strategy Analytics RF & Wireless Components market research service. The historical and projected data in the forecast report is also available in EXCEL format as a spreadsheet.
