Natural is the new fake How to enhance your cheekbones and décolletage
Enhancing beauty in a natural way is a useful skill for any woman. If you long for fuller cheekbones and a cleavage to die for, contouring with make-up is an easy and natural way to get results without surgery. TanOrganic's Duo Bronzer, which contains two shades, is perfect for achieving this.
Noelle O'Connor, founder of TanOrganic and beauty therapist for over 20 years, offers her top tips for achieving the sculpted look:
Always start with a good base: Having hydrated, soft skin, and using a good moisturiser that suits your skin type will help to create a good base for any make-up application. Add a couple of drops of Oil Arganic (£24.99) from TanOrganic in with your daily moisturiser for ultimate hydration.
Use a foundation that works with your complexion and tone: Finding that perfect foundation can be tricky but is worth it. Always remember to blend well across the whole of the face, down onto the neck and into your hairline – you don't want to look like you're wearing a make-up mask!
Contouring chiselled cheekbones: Using an angled brush and TanOrganic Duo Bronzer (£29.99), swirl across the darker chocolate shade and blend just under your cheekbones, towards the hair line. If you're not sure where to apply, suck in your cheeks and apply along the hollow.
Next, flick any excess powder off your brush and swirl your brush over the lighter caramel shade. Apply this colour in the same motion as before, but just above the line of the darker shade.
Using a large, soft brush, blend the two together to diminish any harsh lines. Finally, add a soft pink blusher to the apples of your cheeks to bring them out. To find the apples of your cheeks, smile and apply on the blusher on the plumpest area. Voila, contoured cheekbones!
Chin contouring: To create a more distinct jaw line and diminish a double chin, apply a light dusting of the chocolate shade under your chin line and sweep up towards your ears. Remember to blend well.
Enhance your womanly assets: Most of us would like to create the illusion of having a bigger or perkier cleavage but don't fancy going under the knife. Whilst there are many excellent bras out there to assist, using make-up can also help to give more shape and definition.
Use the darker chocolate colour underneath the collarbone and a dusting of the lighter shade above to begin with. For the bust area, use the chocolate shade in-between your breasts and sweep in a half-circle motion, creating a 'V' shape of colour. Blend this in well with a little of the caramel hue. The darker the layers, the more emphasis is created.

The GED, or General Educational Development, test is your second chance to get a better job and career if you didn't graduate from high school. Originally designed to help World War II veterans receive a high school credential, the GED is now available to those who wish to prove their academic skills in social studies, science, reading, writing and mathematics. To pass the GED, you need to have standard scores that average 450.
Standard Score
Your GED test results are reported to you with two scores -- a standard score and a percentile rank. Standard scores determine whether you passed the test. The standard score ranges from 200 to 800 for each content test. You must have a minimum standard score of 410 on each content test and a total of 2250 or higher on all five tests to pass the GED. Standard scores compare you to the performance of graduating high school seniors.
Percentile Rank
Percentile rank ranges from 1 to 99. The purpose of the percentile rank is to show you the percentage of high school seniors who scored at or below your test score. For example, if you have a percentile rank of 75 on the mathematics test, it means that 75 percent of high school seniors scored lower or earned your score on that content test. Percentile rank is not used to determine whether you passed the test.
Reading the Transcript
The official transcript of GED results shows your individual scores on each of the five tests. Each test, test date, test form, standard score and percentile rank is listed in columns. Your standard score is totaled with a battery average. If you have a battery average of 450 or better, the pass box is checked. If the pass box is checked, you have met or exceeded the performance of 40 percent of graduating high school seniors.
If you do not pass the test, you can retake it. If you earn a standard score of 350 or lower on one of the content areas, the GED Testing Service suggests you prepare more for the test before retaking it. You can retest in each content area up to three times in one year. The score on the test you retake will be combined with the content areas you passed. Cost for a retest varies from state to state.

sorry for my bad english :-)
here my new type called NOGA
Welcome to Typophile
Please Sign in.
Primary tabs
sorry for my bad english :-)
the weight increase, esp in the boldface, appears to be lacking optical adjustments.
What do you mean by "optical adjustments"?
The proportions are very nice, and the small touches, like the @ and the braces, are quite elegant.
Yeah. I like it too and I agree with John about the small touches, the @ was especially nice.
The uppercase Q could need some minor optical adjustments in the bolder version though. Other than that, it's solid. Have you begun with the letterspacing and kerning? Is it done soon?
I'm looking for a good condensed replacement for trade gothic… this looks promising. Will it be sold?
sorry, I should have been more specific. I did not intend to say that I did not like the font. I still feel, however, that the bold weight has some small (but important) issues to confront. specifically, I noticed the negative area at the base of the lc a, b, and d where the bowl encounters the stroke and the space around the bar on the uc Q. the adjustments I am referring to may be entirely void in reality because of the corrupting effects of screen resolution — just offering my observations. it really is a nice piece of work overall.
the glyphs: { } [ ] are aligned centered and not at the baseline, i really like that!!, pretty cool.
anyway there are some glyphs (LC e, and LC f) that looks just a little extrange,
i do not know if you need a diagonal there.
great stuff!.
PS: sorry by my english
i'm not crazy about the way lc t terminates in the boldest version. it could use a little tapering of the stroke as it gets to the end, or maybe shorten the actual stroke. i dig the lc e. the diagonal crossbar is nice.
Nice sans. I agree with Isaac on the 't' and would go a step further to say all weights of the 't' seem to flare too much, it doesn't seem appropriate in this instance. As for optics. The fig '4' seems to suffer quite a bit from the weight interpolation, as does the 'M' and 'N'. Your notches in the characters 'd', 'b', 'g', 'p', 'q' and 'r' ('Q') all but disappear. It might be nice to exaggerate a bit, maybe? The 'j' and 'f' characters seem to flare also. I really like the severity of it though. Nothing like bowing to the master and sticking to the grid. ;)

Chile's congress passed a hate-crimes law Wednesday night, months after a group of alleged neo-Nazis were arrested in the brutal murder of a young gay man.
The law enables people to file anti-discrimination lawsuits and adds hate-crime sentences for violent crimes. Gay activists waved Chilean flags when it passed by a vote of 25-to-3.
The law was stuck in Congress for seven years, but President Sebastian Pinera put it on the fast track after the death of Daniel Zamudio in March prompted people all across Chile to discuss hate crimes. He was found beaten and mutilated in a city park, with swastikas carved into his body. Lawmakers also are preparing to debate the president's proposed civil union law granting inheritance and other rights to same-sex couples.
"It's an enormous culture change for our country," said Sen. Alberto Espina, with the center-right ruling coalition.
"Chile is a country that discriminates against Mapuche (Indians), homosexuals, that discriminates against people for their nationality and for having disabilities," he added. "We have to assume this as a reality instead of hiding it under the rug."
Four suspects, some with criminal records for attacks on gays, have been jailed in Zamudio's killing. Prosecutors have asked for murder charges.
Many in Chile refer to the measure as the Zamudio law. Opposition Sen. Ximena Rincon said it honors his memory.
"This is the beginning of the end for those who discriminate against sexual orientation, disability, ethnic origin and race," Gay Liberation and Integration Movement President Rolando Jimenez said. "Today citizens have a judicial tool to defend themselves against discrimination. That is very good news. Starting today, Chile is a better place to live."
Associated Press writer Luis Andres Henao contributed to this report.

Walking slowly through Sydney's international terminal, the convicted child killer stared blankly ahead, ashen-faced, as she pushed through the media scrum silently.
Allyson McConnell, 34, had her mother Helen Meagher by her side and was met by two other family members, but there was no joy in her homecoming as the media peppered her with questions.
Her arrival on Air Canada flight 33 about 9am on Wednesday had brought with it a sense of freedom - but her future is still uncertain. There remain many questions.
Canadian prosecutors, the Alberta Justice Minister and former husband Curtis McConnell had fought to keep Ms McConnell in Canada until the appeals for her six-year sentence and acquittal on second-degree murder charges were heard.
They failed, but if successful Ms McConnell will be forced back to Canada. In the meantime, she is expected to live with her mother and other relatives.
Ms McConnell was travelling in 2006 when she met Canadian-born Mr McConnell while working at a ski resort in British Columbia. They married, moved to Alberta, and by 2009 they had had their sons Connor and Jayden.
But the marriage soured within three years, and by the end of 2009 the couple had begun divorce proceedings. Ms McConnell wanted to leave with her two children to be with her family in Australia but a judge stopped her efforts.
In February 2010, Mr McConnell received a phone call from a local police officer with news that his wife was in hospital after falling off a bridge and onto a road. Mr McConnell then made the life-changing discovery, the horrific sight of his two dead sons in the bathroom of their family home.
On April 20 last year, a judge found Ms McConnell guilty of manslaughter, but not guilty of second-degree murder because there was enough ''reasonable doubt that she had the specific intent to kill her children''.
The court heard Ms McConnell, who had admitted drowning two-year-old Connor and 10-month-old Jayden in the bath, was suicidal and depressed when she did the unthinkable.
She was sentenced to six years but completed her jail time last Friday after only 10 months in Alberta Psychiatric Hospital, being released because of time already served in custody before the trial.
The release sparked outrage in Canada and despite a last-ditch effort to block her deportation, she was sent back to Australia, arriving on Wednesday morning.
McConnell family members this week spoke to Canadian media about their hurt. "Being the woman they loved, trusted and called mummy, can she still see the look of horror in their eyes as she held them under the water to die?" the boys' aunt Ronalee McConnell told the local press. Mr McConnell fears his former wife could kill again in Australia. ''Will anyone there know about the murders she committed here?'' he asked. ''Being only 34 years old, will she start a new family and have another child in her care?''
The Australian Federal Police, NSW Police and Department of Immigration and Citizenship had no comment in regards to conditions that may be attached to Ms McConnell's release and subsequent deportation.

Jeremy's Knesset InsiderYour Israeli Knesset Center – Polls & Analysis, show that voters don't see any of the wannabes, including Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu, as the Prime Minister of their choice.
I'm going to quote here from a few of his recent posts:
Who is most suited to serve as Prime Minister?
29% Don't know, 28% Netanyahu, 14% Lapid, 7% Peretz, 6% Bennett, 5% Gabbi, 5% Kahlon, 3% Liberman, 3% Yaalon
If you had the right to vote in Labor primary – who would you vote for?
51% None, 25% Gabbi, 23% Peretz
#1 Who is most suited to be Prime Minister?
38% None, 28% Netanyahu, 19% Lapid, 9% Bennett, 6% Peretz
#2 Who is most suited to be Prime Minister?
30% None, 29% Netanyahu, 19% Lapid, 10% Bennett, 11% Gabbai
On one hand it's pretty humorous, but to be honest it's much more worrying. Most Israelis don't see/feel leadership coming from the politicians running the government. These politicians don't have vision. They just talk of alliances with foreign governments and "getting approval/permission" from foreign leaders for our growth and development. This is very worrying and bad news for sure for the future of the State of Israel.
You don't have to be a great Bible scholar to see the parallels between now and the time of the Judges:
Judges 21:25In those days there was no king in Israel; every man did what was right in his eyes.
כהבַּיָּמִים הָהֵם אֵין מֶלֶךְ בְּיִשְׂרָאֵל אִישׁ הַיָּשָׁר בְּעֵינָיו יַעֲשֶֹה:
Gd willing, we will be redeemed speedily in our days.
Shabbat Shalom U'Mevorach
May You have a Peaceful and Blessed Sabbath

A good bead store is a fashionista's best friend. At Bead Me, you can make a necklace worthy of sale at Neiman Marcus for a fraction of a price. Nestled in a strip of stores near Allen's Drugs, Bead Me is a spacious, beautiful shop that offers Miami's largest selection of seed beads and Swarovski crystals. Swarovskis here go for 8 to 60 cents, a real bargain considering how much a pair of the crystal earrings can cost at those cute boutiques on South Beach. Strands of beads run $ to $30, and for the hapless aspiring designer, classes cost $20 to $25, a worthwhile investment if you're planning to keep up with the hottest trends.

He's Back
A nice, relaxing weekend at home with Thaddeus has been extremely therapeutic.
It's amazing how just three weeks away from home can make me feel so lonely and sad...even when I have planned for it for over a month.
During the last week of the three week "go-live" of the project I'm working on, work continued to be extremely stressful and in addition, I was longing more and more to be home and with Thaddeus.
The funny thing is that we didn't do anything special when I finally got home. It turned out to be a relatively routine weekend. But it did more for this guy's soul than you could possibly imagine.
So glad to be back to a more normal work/home life.
Current Knitting
I did get more knitting done on the Faux Ribbed Sweater this weekend.
I'm up to nine and a half inches so far, and it's looking quite fine.
I'm still in a bit of a quandry as to which side of the fabric to use as the public side. Here's a couple of closeup pictures of both sides.
I'd be interested to hear opinions on which fabric they prefer for a simple man's pullover.
Readers' Comments/Questions
Regarding the handspun Blueface Leicester I'm using for my current sweater, Jacquie says, "Inconsistencies in spinning? Joe, that's as Republican a comment as I've ever heard. Inconsistency in spinning is the whole point. Handspun is spun by hand and feels like hands do, utterly delicious on the body. Is this sweater not for your lovie?"
Wow, that was harsh Jacquie. Obsessive/compulsive? Perhaps. Anal-retentive? Possibly. Overly concerned with details? Probably. But Republican? Ouch!
And in answer to your question, the sweater will be for both Thaddeus and I. It's the one garment that we can both wear the same size and styles.

Live Music
I have never had a very strong aptitude for playing or listening critically to music, but nothing moves me more than being present for a live music performance.
My Only Respite This Past Weekend
I ended up working most of this past weekend, but I decided to steal away some time on Saturday night to join a friend up in the Albany area for a musical performance at the Capital District Gay and Lesbian Community Center in Albany, NY.
Two guitarists/singer/songwriters played to a very intimate audience of about 25 people, and they were both spectacular.
Jules Piper played a set of about 12 songs that were mournful, touching and deeply personal, especially in the small setting of the community center performance space. She is by far the hottest lesbian I have ever seen (could be it's because she's so boyish looking that I find her look so appealing).
I didn't see anywhere on her MySpace site where her scheduled appearances are, but if you can get a chance to see her perform, you will not be dissappointed.
The second act was another short set by Mieka Pauley. Mieka's music is just splendid. She uses a guitar to its best advantage and combines it with a voice that is incredibly beautiful. Her songwriting is inspired and I didn't hear one song from her that I didn't completely love. I don't know how we got so lucky to see such an incredible performer in such a small venue. She does have a schedule of upcoming shows on her site, and she's slated to be in Philadelphia tomorrow. I can only highly recommend the experience.
Both artists had CD's for sale at the show and I picked up all three (Jules had one and Mieka had two).
I know that the experience of live music isn't something explained well in writing, but I can only say that you won't be the same after seeing either of these two amazing performers.
Current Knitting
I actually got in some quality knitting time yesterday and added maybe another inch to the Faux Rib sweater.
I've been toying with the idea of using the "wrong side" as the "right side", but I've pretty much eliminated this idea. Here's a small closeup of the reverse side of the fabric.
The only thing I don't like about it, is that it shows inconsistencies in my spinning, and that is just plain unacceptable.

I Got Nothin'...
...nothing left at all.
When Blogging Is Hard
When I have the time to get a lot of knitting done, or I'm working on fast projects, or I have time to buy lots of new yarn, or when I have time to meet up with other knitting friends, or when I have time to review knitting magazines or when I have time to follow the idiotic politics of the current conservative assholes. That's when blogging is easy.
When I find it difficult to fit in time to pee and I haven't see Thaddeus for over two weeks. That's when blogging is hard.
Current Knitting
There are two things I try to always schedule into my day. Knitting and reading. So even though I haven't been able to allocate much time to either, I have made some progress on my knitting since last I blogged.
I know it's not much (and the picture is awful), and I'm hoping that this week will offer a little more free time, but I am still very much in love with this project and the yarn I'm using.

Squeezing In a Fast One
In between crazy hours of work, I'm trying to update the site as often as I can. Political commentary will be excluded until the end of the month.
Current Knitting
You can't imagine how great it is to have a simple, enjoyable and elegant project to be working on. I can fit in a few rows here and there, and progress seems to be constant, despite my unruly schedule.
Believe it or not, this is about three times as long as yesterday's picture, although perspective doesn't seem to show that very well.
Cheap Yarn Purchase
Yesterday, they let us out of work a little early at 6:00 p.m. I tried to make arrangements to meet up with friends at an Indian restaurant that I had been to a couple of Monday's ago, but none of my friends could make it on such short notice.
I decided to go anyway, only to find that the restaurant's schedule had changed, and they're no longer open on Monday's.
Not my day.
They had a Dollar General store next to the restaurant, so I decided to browse around. I love those stores.
I found this pile of crap-yarn.
It's Paton's Voodoo yarn. Black, sheep-like yarn that I thought might be interesting in a novelty scarf. And at a dollar a ball, I had to buy 15.

Patron Of The Local Arts
I've mentioned it before, but Thaddeus and I buy almost all of our art from local artists. We've been fortunate to have a friend, Nora, who has been supporting local artists in the Bucks County area for her whole life.
Belated Birthday Gift
This past weekend, we went out to eat with Nora, and she gave me this incredibly beautiful and thoughtful gift.
These are hand-crafted, rosewood needles that she picked up from a local art store in New Hope. They're US10 needles, and they feel incredible, so I'll have to swatch up Carol's yarn on these needles to see if I can come up with some way to use both knitting related gifts at the same time.
I don't know if I'll be able to handle the hedonism of it all.
Current Knitting
I got started on the new sweater, using the handspun Blueface Leicester.
It's going somewhat slowly based on two factors. My schedule (which had me working even yesterday, on Easter) and the fine gauge of the yarn/fabric. At over 7 stitches to the inch, and doing the equivalent of garter stitch, the progress is slow, but very satisfying.
Readers' Comments/Questions
Fredda asks, "Was that a serious "Yay" for the 200 stitches??"
Absolutely. You know how much I like fine gauge knitting. I even considered going down a needle size, but I really like the softness and loft of the fabric on US3's.
Marilyn asks, "Why are we both working in technology? There must be some reason besides the money but I'll be damned if I know why I like it."
This career has been extremely good to me, and actually, so has this project. I usually go through hellish times once or twice a year as I move from project to project. In the last three years, this is really on the second time where life got so stressful. I figure it's worth the money.
Regarding the Bird's Eye Shawl, Karen asks, "What yarn were you using?"
This is one of those questions where a little Google search would have resulted in the answer, as this question has been asked before (see the Google search of my web log at the top left of my web site). It is the merino laceweight yarn from Skaska Designs.
Regarding the Blueface Leicester, Anne asks, "What brand of ball winder are you using? One of those Strauch winders?"
No, just one of those cheap, plastic, Royal winders. This is almost the largest I can make using it, so it does have its limits.
And finally, regarding the new sweater, Mhairi asks, "Looks like it will knit up beautifully - is this a Spring sweater , or a wait until Autumn (Fall)?"
Definitely a "wait until Autumn" sweater. It will be a thinner fabric, but still yet quite warm...I think.

Stress, Stress And More Stress
The "go-live" stage of a system implementation project is always busy, chaotic and filled with major stress.
This go-live, is going extremely well, but trying to keep it on schedule is taking up an enormous amount of my time. When I'm not working, I'm sleeping and vice versa.
So, please excuse both the quantity and quality of blog postings on this site.

First of all, the Bird's Eye Lace shawl is starting to become fraught with mistakes, and I fear I will have to pull out all the current work on that project, and pick it up again when I can concentrate a little more closely on it.
I know...I feel sad too, but it really has to be done.
I decided to use some of my homespun Blueface Leicester to start on my next project.
Spinning Excitement
I wound the first HUGE hank of Blueface Leicester and measured the length at the same time.
This major ball 'o yarn turned out to be about 930 yards and 9.6 ounces. This equates to about 1550 yards per pound, and would classify the yarn as a light sport weight.
I decided I needed to swatch it up immediately, and used a US3 needle and the faux ribbing stitch pattern to come up with this lovely piece of fabric:
I'll be using the stitch pattern at the top of the swatch.
I can't tell you how soft and silky this swatch feels, and I can't wait to get started on the sweater. At about 7.25 sts to the inch, I will need ot cast on almost 200 stitches just for the back of the sweater. YAY!!!
I also plied the second, not-so-quite-huge hank of Blueface Leicester, and washed and hung it to set the twist.
I won't be able to wind/measure this hank until I get back home at the end of the month after go-live. I'm hopeful that the yards per pound is approximately the same and that my spinning/plying is somewhat consistent with this batch of yarn.

Extended Birthday
One of the benefits of being away on your birthday is that the day gets extended for weeks sometimes.
Birthmonth Celebrations
Thaddeus and I got to have a great dinner at a local restaurant and I got an excellent shirt. Thaddeus has excellent taste, and I love the shirt. It's short-sleeved, so when it gets warmer, I'll model for blog readers.
I also arrived home late Friday to this package in the mail.
God, it's nice to have blog friends that are as talented and creative as Carol S. The yarn is a spectacular combination of golds and yellows. I can't wait to knit something up using it. I'm not quite sure yet what garment merits QueerJoe Gold.
Current Knitting
I did get a LITTLE more done on the Bird's Eye Lace shawl.
With my current work week, I don't expect to get a lot of knitting done this week. Nor blogging. But I'll try to fit in a few quickies.
Readers' Comments/Questions
Hannah asks, "I got your blog address from someone on Knitters Review Forums. He/She said you knew of a place to publish patterns (individually)?? I just finished (almost) my 2nd pattern and would love to make a little money by selling it (it's super cute, I promise!)."
As most of the readers here already know, I publish my patterns on The Knitting Vault. Setting myself up as a designer and uploading my pattern designs was easy, and I get constant sales of my patterns without any further work. I can't imagine why everyone isn't publishing there.

More Bush Bullshit
30-September-2003 - "President Bush's chief spokesman said Monday that the allegation that administration officials leaked the name of a CIA operative is "a very serious matter" and vowed that Bush would fire anybody responsible for such actions."
Now we find out in March 2003 that Bush authorized Cheney to authorize Scooter Libby to release top-secret information.
Not Only Are They All Liars...
...but they're bad liars.
So much for the "moral authority" of a government with integrity.
Current Knitting
I've had limited time to knit, but I have been able to get a couple of rows more done on the Bird's Eye shawl. I'll update with a picture in my next post.
Gorgeous Colors
Blog friend, Carol S. is doing some amazing things with yarn and spinnable fiber. She's doing handpainted yarns and roving and selling them on Etsy under the seller name Black Bunny Fibers.
The bad news is that every time she puts up a new hank of yarn, it gets purchased almost immediately.
Is there anyway to get notified immediately when a seller posts something on Etsy?
Readers' Comments/Questions
Frankin asks, "I've heard the Bird's Eye lace pattern can be a bit tricky to establish - did you find it so?"
Yes, extremely tricky. I cast on 231 stitches three times after failed attempts to get this pattern stitch going. That's when I switched to using waste knitting first, so I could always just bring it back to 231 stitches, and also have something to hold onto during the first few rows of knitting.

Letting It In
As an update, the circumstances of my birthday only got worse. The gale force winds and rain turned to gale force winds and snow, and my client announced that they needed the entire project team to work until midnight yesterday.
Your birthday wishes and personal wishes from family and blog friends were truly appreciated, and for some reason meant a lot more this year than in prior years.
Thank you all.
Best Birthday Present
Actually, the nicest part of my birthday was that Thaddeus had hidden a birthday card in my car, so that I would have something to open. It was nice to feel connected even though we're so far apart.
But second place, was Tom Delay's personal birthday gift to me.
I can't tell you how great it is that that slimey bastard is slithering away in disgrace. Good riddance to one of the nastiest pricks that has ever been elected to national office.
Current Knitting
Despite having to work until midnight last night, I did get some additional work done on the Bird's Eye lace shawl.
If I ever finish this one, it will be pretty spectacular.
Interweave Crochet
I went out to buy the most current issue of Interweave Crochet because friend, Kathy Merrick has a blanket design done in Koigu solids in this issue.
Kathy did a Kaffe/Brandon-inspired crochet blanket that is exquisite in terms of colors. It was worth the purchase price for that design alone.
Which is a good thing, because that is the only design in the entire magazine that's worth anything. The stark contrast between Kathy's design and the other dreck in the magazine is striking. Interweave tries to bastardize even Kathy's design by calling Koigu "superwash," but don't believe them. It holds up in the wash, but it is definitely NOT superwash.
Readers' Comments/Questions
Duffy writes, "Bother with Dunkin'; revel that you have a HONKIN' big hank of handspun!"
This was one of my favorite comments, and I was even able to hear it in my mind's ear with an accent based on how she wrote it.
JoVE writes, "The plus side of your horrible experience might be that smart people are actually getting jobs that require there smarts instead of being forced to work at DD to pay the rent."
The sad part is that directly across the street from this place is a large New York state college where you'd think there would be scads of eager, bright young folks who would want to make a little spending money.
Marilyn asks, "Your yarn is absolutely gorgeous. I forget--what are you planning to do with it? I've got MDS&W on my brain. Are you going?"
I'm going to make a faux-ribbed pullover with the newly spun yarn, as long as the swatch makes a good fabric. As for MDS&W, I don't think I'll be going this year, but that could change as well.
Michelene posits, "Joe, I work in education (though I'm not a teacher),and I'm more inclined to believe the state of parenting in this country has caused a generation of morons."
Excellent point, and I agree wholeheartedly with this, and I should have put the blame where it belongs, thanks.

God, I'm Getting Old
I know I'm getting old when I start thinking that the state of education in this country has caused a generation of morons.
Birthday Blues
I wake up to gale force winds and rain whipping against my hotel window. My room is cold and dark.
I decide the only cure for a lousy-starting birthday is to stop at the local Dunkin' Donuts and pick up a dozen muffins for my coworkers.
The experience was less than satisfying. The drive-through guy made me repeat my order three times. When I got to the window to pay, the cashier had no idea what I had ordered, so I repeated it a fourth time. When I arrived at work, I taste my "light-no-sugar-repeated-four-fucking-times-coffee" and find it is filled with sugar...blech! I decide to drown my woes in a big blueberry muffin and when I open the top box of muffins, two of them are burnt and dry looking and the one I pick out is dented on the bottom, as if it was dropped on the floor.
Biting into it, I realized I picked a chocolate chip muffin...blech again!
I actually called to give the manager feedback on my experience and was met with defensive, annoyed responses that left me angrier than when I'd called. I can only be left to surmise that the available workforce for a place like Dunkin' Donuts doesn't offer very smart folks.
Thanks for all your happy wishes, let's hope they all make this day better.
Current Knitting
I completed a total of two rows on the Bird's Eye Shawl for a total of two complete repeats (16 rows total).
I am getting a little more confident with the pattern stitch already, so hopefully this will go faster and faster.
I am in love with the yarn. It is the merino laceweight yarn from Skaska Designs.
Other Fiber Activity
This past weekend I focused a lot on spinning. I finished the third and final bobbin of singles and began the triple-plying.
You'll note a couple of things. One, I'm plying on the Louet wheel, since I used up all three bobbins on the Robin wheel. Two, I set up my own lazy kates using boxes and knitting needles. It worked very well, and I finished the first bobbin of three-ply yarn.
I got to use my niddy noddy from Rhinebeck for the first time, and it worked wonderfully.
It seemed like I was winding yarn for hours, and I was thinking that niddy noddy's aren't very efficient. Until...I realized how big this hank of yarn was...9.6 ounces which equates to at least 900 yards, although I haven't measured it yet.
I put my razor in the picture to give you some perspective on how large this hank turned out. I washed and set this hank, and the resulting yarn seems to be between DK and fingering weight, but I'll have to swatch to make sure.
Overall, I'm extremely happy with how this spinning adventure turned out.
Readers' Comments/Questions
Anne asks, "Joe, have you tried a Woolee Winder? You don't have to stop and change hooks at all, just keep on spinning."
They don't make Woolee Winders for the Robin wheel, but I did consider getting one for my Louet. Given how fast I like to spin and how little I like to stop and change hooks, it would be a good idea for me.

Hooray For Brooklyn, NY
It's difficult to be happy about a brutal hate-crimes conviction against a gay man in Brooklyn, but at least Brooklyn has a hate-crimes law, and the local community helped to bring the assailaint to justice.
Violence Against Gays
23 year old Steven Pomie was convicted on five counts, including first-degree assault and assault as a hate crime, for attacking Dwan Prince outside Prince's apartment in the Brownsville section of Brooklyn last June. Authorities said Pomie and two others beat Prince unconscious and kicked him in the head while screaming anti-gay slurs.
Prince was in a coma for more than a month but he recovered enough to provide testimony at the trial that helped convict Pomie on all counts. Prosecutors in the case were helped by the fact that several witnesses called police while the attack was going on.
I can only hope that Pomie's prison time (which could be up to 25 years) will allow him to be exposed to man-on-man love in a way that let's him understand how painful it can be to be a gay man. I'm all for teaching empathy.
Current Knitting
I finally made it past the first repeat of the lace pattern I have tried making three times. I'm working the pattern on 231 stitches, and I have ripped it out three times. I've made it up to 14 rows with the help of waste yarn, stitch markers and a row counter.
My real computer is having some issues, so I'm posting this from my work computer. My pictures of the lace knitting are on my other computer, so I've stolen a bad quality picture from elsewhere to show you kind of what my lace will look like.
The picture is awful, but so is the one of my lace, so it's about equal anyway.
This stitch pattern takes a lot of my concentration, and each row takes quite a while for me to complete. Hopefully it will speed up as I get more and more used to it.
Update - My real computer seems to be working again, so I'm updating this entry to include the lousy picture of the actual lace knitting
Readers' Comments/Questions
Carol S. asks the snarky question, "What's the opposite of 'guy who updates his blog frequently'?"
The best answer I can give is, "Guy with a real life." With a weekend like the one we just had, I can't be expected to be sitting behind a computer.

To me, magazines are the best sources for learning new things, getting inspired, and discovering what's happening in the world. I used to get so many print subscriptions—Time, Real Simple, and O magazine, that stacked up in piles so high I'd never have time to read them all. Now I'm a freelance magazine writer and editor, and Next Issue has become invaluable to my career. I read all of my favorites digitally at any time I choose, whether it's downloading a bunch before a flight or just relaxing at home on the weekend.
Before pitching to an editor, I always read at least three back issues to see what the magazine has already covered. With Next Issue, I have a year's worth of magazines (and more) to flip through. I also love studying magazine covers to get familiarized with the magazine's unique style. When I open Next Issue, it's like being at the best virtual newsstand you've ever seen.
Open up the app, tap (+) to add these titles to your library, and enjoy my picks on News to Read Now and End of Summer To-Do.

News To Read Now
Kara Swisher's Source Code
Ever since I heard Kara Swisher, tech journalist and serial blunt speaker, talk at a publishing conference, I've been fascinated by her. She's bitingly funny and somehow manages to be hated and loved in Silicon Valley, counting Facebook's Mark Zuckerberg on her buddy list while not being on speaking terms with Yahoo's Marissa Mayer. Her ability to break tech stories is spell binding, even if you're not a journalist.
How to Spark a Breakthrough
Every issue of O has a great main feature story, chock-full of wise advice from the best experts, quizzes, and a gorgeous layout. It's like a gift every single month. The August issue tackles those tiny or big sparks that change your life—like falling in love with a terminally ill woman, being told you're a terrible actor, or making peace with your fear of flying.
Gone Girls
I've always been a fan of Marie Claire's international reporting, and this chilling story about the kidnapping of 300 Nigerian schoolgirls by terrorist organization Boko Haram is one of the best I've read in awhile. The stunning photographs show some of the girls who are still missing. The heartbreak of these girls' mothers is impossible to ignore.
Crime Without Punishment
The tragedy of Malaysia Airlines flight 17—carrying 298 people on board, including AIDS researchers and young children—is beyond unfathomable. This in-depth article on the wreckage and Russian president Vladimir Putin's handling of the crisis is a piece that is important to read to understand the scope of current international affairs.
End Of Summer To-Do
Decorating: Bright Idea
I adored this design mag, and was sad when it ceased production. Then Domino came back, and when I saw it listed in Next Issue's latest offerings, I squealed with delight. (Literally.) This DIY gem of turning a junk store coffee table into an upholstered bench with a $20 IKEA rug and some yarn is definitely on my home improvement to-do list.
Fire Up Your Veg!
As the owner of a shiny new outdoor grill, this feature is perfect for summer. I'm dying to try out the simple techniques like parboiling carrots before tossing them on the 'ol barbecue. Instead of the usual veggie skewers, I'll be making some grilled bok choy with garlic-sage oil (hello, delicious!).
Take Control of the Laundry, Finally!
I hate doing laundry, but it's a necessary evil. I keep hoping that there will be some magical way that my clothes can clean themselves. Until then, Real Simple has the ultimate guide for everything laundry, including why folding clothes straight out of the dryer is best. Fine! I'll do it. (Next time.)
Binge-Watch the Simpsons
I started watching The Simpsons when I was in fifth grade. I'm 35 now. It's amazing to me that the show is still on the air, and more amazing still that FXX is airing all 25 seasons in 12 days. D'oh! This epic, illustrative guide is just perfect for any fan to mark off the countdown to all 552 episodes.

Tesco's second generation low cost Hudl tablet will hit the stores next week, offering extra features for parents to control Internet access of their offspring.
Tesco said the device has undergone a complete redesign to appeal to customers.
The now thinner Hudl2, featuring an 8.3in full HD screen, will come in eight colours and sell at £129.
"I'm really proud of what we're launching today. We've developed a high quality tablet that's welcoming and accessible to all, whatever your budget or technological know-how," said Tesco's group digital officer Michael Comish at a launch event in London.
"It's a step-change in technology - it's undergone a complete redesign, with additional investment in hardware, software and user experience."
Tesco has built content filter The Parent Zone into the device's software, enabling parents to create profiles for up to seven other users, and control what they can and cannot see on the device.
"The child safety filter on hudl 2 is more parent-friendly than anything we have seen before," said Vicki Shotbolt, CEO at The Parent Zone.
According to the retailer, the first generation Hudl tablet, which was released last year, sold more than 750,000 units, and the retailer expects the new generation to perform even better.
"This year, tablet penetration is expected to reach about 44 per cent, but that still leaves half the country without access to a tablet," Comish said. "We know customers want easy, accessible technology that the whole family can use, whether working, shopping, gaming, learning or just taking some time out."
Since last year, multiple retail companies have entered the low-cost tablet market, trying to emulate the success of Apple's £739 iPad device while making the technology accessible to masses.
In addition to Tesco, Lidl and Argos also launched their own devices.
The Hudl 2 tablet will compete directly with three gadgets recently launched by Amazon, which carry a similar price tag to the Tesco device.
According to figures from Deloitte, around 13 million tablets were sold in the UK in 2013.

Logitech G910 Orion Keyboard
This is Xah design review of the Logitech G910 Orion Spark RGB Mechanical Gaming Keyboard.
The outstanding features in G910, are:
Romer-G Mechanical Switch
Romer-G mechanical switch. This is a new type of switch, with actuation distance of 1.5 mm, which is 0.5 mm less than the Cherry MX switches.
It's also quite, like rubber dome keyboards. It's far more quiter than Cherry MX Brown or any Cherry MX. [see Guide to Keyboard Key Switch Mechanisms]
• RGB lighting. This means, this keyboard can light up like a Christmas tree. The LED is part of the key switch, centered in the key switch, so the key labels lights up nicely, and light does not leak out to the bottom of keys. The software lets you control the light, so you can have rainbow effect, wave effect, colored light sweeping over the entire keyboard, etc.
• Specially designed key caps. Rather a silly design, with a groove. I didn't like it. But i think i'll get used to it.
• Very short key activation distance. Some people really don't like this.
Other features of g910 are common in other gaming keyboards.
Work in Linux?
Yes, as a basic keyboard.
If you program the keys in Microsoft Windows, and plug it into a linux machine, would the shortcut work? Not sure.
The backlight setup also will probably not work in linux.
If you search the web, "logitech 910 linux", there are some projects that lets you setup this keyboard in linux. But i consider this not acceptable.
Xah Verdict
This is a fancy keyboard. Fancy, is the word.
The 1 thing that i really like on this keyboard: mechanical keys, and QUIET!
The 1 thing that don't like: the keycap.
if you want Romer-G but can't stand the garishness of the Orion Spark, then get G810, but it does not have onboard memory.
If you don't want to pay some $60 extra for the quite mechanical key with rainbow colors, then you better off with Logitech G710+.
Even, all these flat PC keyboards are rather garbage. You should get a split, matrix layout, mechanical switch keyboard. See Best Ergonomic Keyboards 2018
Other RGB Keyboard Makers
There are few other RGB keyboard makers. For example Corsair Keyboards and Razer.
However, both of them have the major problem that they require you to register and use their CLOUD for your keyboard settings to work.
If you have a question, put $5 at patreon and message me.

To aim car headlights, first determine the location of the headlight adjusting screws. Make sure the vehicle has a full tank of gas to account for the effect the tank has on the headlight positioning. Use a level to determine the flattest area in front of a wall or garage door, and once it is dark, move the vehicle there. Use masking tape to mark the vertical and horizontal center on each headlight. Measure the distance from the ground.Continue Reading
Use the measurements to mark the vertical and horizontal center on the wall directly in front of the headlights. To double-check the measurements, pull the car as close to the wall as possible, and determine if the tape is aligned. To maintain near-perfect alignment, measure 25 feet of masking tape and place it on the ground in a straight line starting at the center of one of the back tires before backing the car away from the wall.
Shine the headlights on the wall. Use the headlight adjusting screws to adjust the beams to the manufacturer's instructions. Typical instructions include focusing the low beams 2 inches below the horizontal center and just to the right of the vertical center. High beams are usually adjusted just below the horizontal center and right where the vertical and horizontal centers overlap.Learn more about Car Parts & Maintenance

Should 'Teen Mom' Star Gary Shirley Lose Custody Of Baby Leah, Like Amber Did?
Amber Portwood has already lost custody of Leah, and now after Gary Shirley's arrest today, May 25, Child Protective Services is looking into taking their daughter away from him too! But do you think it's necessary?
Gary Shirley was booked today, May 25, after being caught driving with a suspended lisence following a screaming match with Teen Mom Amber Portwood. Now Gary's attorney Jeff Lockwood tells HollyBaby.com that the Indiana Department of Child Services is trying to relocate 2-year-old Leah and strip Gary of custody. But what do you think, HollyMoms? Should they?
Gary currently has sole custody of his daughter with Amber, who lost custody of Leah herself after a bout of vandalism against her car and home in early May.
So if Gary loses custody, where will Leah go? Share your thoughts!

Picture yourself spending some time with congenial friends, sharing your lives and pictures from your cell phones." They're curious about that cool game, song, movie, camping trip, art show, or other event that fascinated you. You talk about all kinds of stuff, poetry, styles, personal achievements, relationships, and bad days. You can share your inner child, and laugh together. They sympathetically listen to your feelings about serious topics like politics or climate change, even when they don't agree.
Personal validation comes from paying attention to one another, giving more than you get. Everyone respects you and themselves, despite our amazing range of personal tastes and interests. They'll tell you they don't agree with an idea or behavior without implying you're a bad person or somehow deficient. It's an "I'm OK, You're OK" kind of fellowship, where nobody tries to make himself look better by picking on somebody else.
Nobody here is into mind games. A discussion started with a loaded guilt-throwing question will be deleted.
This group is not intended to compete with other groups on topics they cover but to "fill in the cracks." Whenever a discussion dwells at length on a topic for which there's an existing group, we urge you to provide members a link to that group to continue along their tangent.
A comment is a shout-out, which will get lost in a few days, because the comment wall is just a random stack.
Please start a discussion to share stories, photos, and videos. Replies will pop up in your "latest activity" and a conversation can develop from the feelings and thoughts you contributed. Groups are built on discussions.

Just now, my printer ran out of ink! I use it primarily for crossword puzzles. Evidently, they use quite a lot of ink. And it ain't cheap. Can't use your cartridges, Bertold. I have an HP. Hope you get your computer soon, Chris.
Old into new. I got some used bedlinnen from someone who is decluttering. Not the size I needed, but I made three fitted sheets from it. They will serve me for five years at least.
What are you sewing?
Yes, it was very thoughtful of him, but a whiplash is something to be very careful about...
So I'm patiently waiting for pc number 4, going through a lot of retrieved messages etc. and making miles on the sewing machine...
Plinius, I just paid attention to your last sentence:
"In spite of his newly acquired whiplash, he arrived hours later to lend me a laptop."
How thoughtful of him! He undoubtedly knows how it feels to be without a computer.
Yikes, its just one thing after another for you!!! Have to be glad the driver wasn't hurt any worse though.
I hope your computer arrives soon and working at full meter.
I'm still having computer trouble after ordering a new desktop on June 5th. First delivery was quick enough but the pc was dead. Second delivery was much slower because a vital part was missing from number 2. Delivery number 3 was due last Friday, but the computerman got a collision on the road; computers total-loss. In spite of his newly acquired whiplash he arrived hours later to lend me a laptop. To be continued....
Canadian apples I'm sure.
Yeah, cartridges are a terrible price & I resent paying it.

Non sequitur. How many children take guns to school, with the intention of shooting someone, in Britain?
Anyway, do you feel the need to have a gun at home for protection? I don't .....
Not rediculous.... The powers up top want shootings, to further their agenda. Same as if an officer on 7/7 or 9/11 stopped it from happening, he would be fired too.

Not knowing the whole story to start, the safest thing was to suspend all until the facts are known. Now that they are known, put the kid back in school, shouldn't have been more than one day.
So if a teacher would have disarmed the kid, would the teacher have been suspended pending an investigation?

Welcome to Peter-lyon.com
You might think this site is all about cars. Okay, I admit that they do occupy a significant part of the site. But that's only because it's my job to write about the Japanese auto industry for a dozen or so global publications. Sure it's a blast, but it ain't everything. The food in Tokyo is superb and the wine selection just keeps getting better. It's the cultural and business hub of Asia and one of the safest places on the planet. And having spent just on 20 years here, well, I think this country has a lot say. So, if you're into cars and driving, good food and wine, music, travel, nightlife, stuff on Australia (coz I'm an Aussie!) or inter-cultural insights, stop by some time. You might find something interesting. Oh, and please bear with me as I piece this site together...
NISSAN PIVO EXCLUSIVE --- (What's New?)
When Nissan asked whether we'd like to have a closer look at their electric Pivo concept, first seen at the last October's Tokyo Motor Show, they didn't have to twist anyone's arm.
Widely recognized as one of the show's big hits, the three-seater bubble-shaped car with its amazing rotating cabin has done away with the need to reverse. And women love that fact. They told us so!
But, in a strange way, the Pivo resembled the space pod in Kubrick's 2001: A Space Odyssey. A coincidence? Hmmm. "Open the pod bay doors Hal!"
Or at least we think so. In Tokyo for a quick business trip? Or here for the long haul like me? Then one of the best places to sample authentic Thai cuisine is the Erawan restaurant. Perched on the 13th floor of the Roi building in downtown Roppongi, the combination of a dark wooden decor set against Tokyo's neon skyline creates the ideal atmosphere for a night of spice and rice. Try the Tom Yum Kung.
If you're a diehard Beatles' fan, (and come on, who's not?!) then Abbey Road is a must-see club in central Tokyo. Resident band The Parrots are celebrating their 10th anniversary playing nothing but The Beatles, and whoah, are these guys good! Close your eyes, and you'd think John, Paul, George and Ringo were back together. Listen to their cover version of Why My Guitar Gently Weeps, and you can't go back to the original. I kid you not!
SHOWERS OF LIGHT AND ANALOG GETAWAYS --- (Car Culture)
One of my favouite Japanese words is komorebi. A combination of four characters, it eloquently captures the essence of a phenomenon which cannot easily be expressed in English. Arguably the best translation might be sunlight shining through the trees.
---Not pressured to return my test car - a Nissan 350Z Roadster - by a certain time, I took a quiet scenic route in the borrowed convertible, soaked up the komorebi sunshine and reflected on how and why I started learning Japanese around 30 years ago.
STi S204 FIRST DRIVE
--- (New Car Test)
Engineers at Subaru's secretive tuning arm, STi, have a new mission in life. No longer satisfied with making high-performance Imprezas, the group has declared: "We want to build the world's ultimate Subarus. We want our relationship with Subaru to be like BMW's M badge or Mercedes' AMG." But does the new S204 have the prestige to match its performance?
(Story next week)
Kazunori Yamauchi's lines were perfect. The creator of Gran Turismo, the world's biggest selling driving game, had arrived at Tsukuba Circuit to squeeze in some much needed practice. He's driven every major racetrack in the world, but he's never actually raced. It took some persuasion, but I finally got him into a fully race-prepped Mazda MX-5. He'd be co-driving with yours truly in a 1-hour endurance race. Kaz proved that more than 2000 laps around a virtual Tsukuba Circuit in his game do have meaning in the real world. He's quick, very quick! And it looks like he's caught the bug.
January 28, Grand Hyatt Hotel, Tokyo:
The Australia Day Ball is one of the biggest events on Tokyo's social calendar. And this year the theme was masquerade. As a celebration of Australia Day (Aussie Day is actually Jan 26) in Japan, more than 500 mask-clad expats and their guests sipped Aussie wine and enjoyed a special performance by Australia's foremost transgendered star Carlotta. Wondering maybe? Yes, Carlotta was the inspiration for Priscilla, Queen of the Desert.

William Tenn.
The man who wrote under the name "William Tenn" was Philip Klass, and he has died at the age of 89.
I had the great honor of shaking Mr. Klass's hand at the 2004 World Science Fiction Convention in Boston, the only WorldCon I have (so far) attended. He was the Guest of Honor, and I somehow ended up at the Hugo Losers Party, and he was there to hang out with the losers. He seemed quite happy to be in such company.
Shaking his hand was, for me, one of those awkward moments where English suddenly seemed to stop being my native language. All I could manage to say was, "I really admire your work," and he smiled and nodded. I must have been about the five hundredth person that day to say such a thing to him, and probably some of the people who said such a thing to him didn't even know who he was. I wanted him to know that I knew, that I thought everyone should know the name of the man who wrote "The Liberation of Earth", a story I cherish. But I couldn't find the words, and so I smiled and nodded, and he smiled and nodded, and then I fled.
He wrote "The Liberation of Earth" and "Down Among the Dead Men" and "Brooklyn Project" and "The Custodian" and plenty of others. They are currently most easily available in the three volumes of collected fiction and nonfiction published by NESFA Press: Immodest Proposals, Here Comes Civilization, and Dancing Naked.
In 2004, I wrote a long post about the short stories in general and "Liberation of Earth" in particular.
The official William Tenn website has a running list of links to remembrances and appreciations.
Words seem, once again, to be failing me, and so I will, once again, offer Phil Klass and William Tenn a smile and a nod -- this time in honor of his memory and in thanks for the stories he gave to the world.

A research firm believes that increased sales of netbooks will result in higher demand for mobile broadband services. That has to be great news for wireless carriers and would also explain why some have begun to offer subsidized netbooks with a contract for mobile broadband service. The latest report issued by Pyramid Research states that netbooks are just beginning to gain market traction.
The research company believes that OEM's should support netbook sales regards of the downward pressure they place on laptop prices. This is especially true since netbooks are expected to exceed the sales of notebooks computers in the operator channel by 2010. Part of the growth behind netbooks is the adoption of them by those under 21.
Like it or not, netbooks are going to be hear to stay. They are clearly loved by wireless carriers and those under 21. They also are being offered at a good time since people are looking for a cheap way to get a portable computer in the current economic climate.

Male Broadcaster: [click] ... House has issued a series of clarifications of several of the President's statements at his nationally televised news conference last night. In addition to responding to a question about abortion with a three-minute answer about taxes and confusing his Attorney General with his Chief of Staff, the President apparently forgot that Hawaii is a State, referring to it as, "one of our strongest allies in the Pacific." A White House spokesman explained that the President had been thrown off by the intensity of the previous question. And finally, FBI agents have arrested Air Force Sergeant Michael Prescott in connection with a plot to sell weapons secrets to an unnamed foreign government. Prescott was arrested last night in a Staten Island supermarket. Turning to weather, the city remains in the grip of a cold spell. The temperature in Central Park dropped to 36 degrees overnight. The current midtown temperature at 6:59 is a brisk 39 degrees. Next news and weather again at eight o'clock. Now back to the hits on New York's "more music" station.

A few weeks ago I wrote about how I had recently come to the conclusion that I was a runner. Ironically, about three days later while running the Yonkers Half-Marathon (and might I add, setting a new PR of 1:32:50 -- a 7:05 per mile pace), I managed to hurt myself and irritate what turned out to be a chronic ligament tear. The doctor's prescription: Rest.
Me, right before the pain began to set in.
Rest does not come easy. With the 40 miles a week I was regularly running before, my body was accustomed to a minimum of six hours a week of exercise. Within days of starting to rest I began to feel lethargic, had trouble falling asleep, my bowel movements became irregular. Even mentally it bothered me to walk in to my bathroom and not see piles of dirty running clothes.
I've found some alternative forms of exercises to fill in, such as deep-water running and cycling, however, neither compare exactly to the thrill of running wild and free. Already in the two weeks I've been "out of commission," I've learned a lot about being injured. Let me share them with you.
1: I Am Not Invincible.
I really thought I was. I was new to the sport of running and everything was going fine. In the five months that I was injury-free, I went from running 15 miles a week to 40, my race speed for anything under 10 miles went from nine-minute miles to sub-seven. I was flying. The weekend I hurt myself, I raced back-to-back days. A four-mile race on Saturday, a half-marathon on Sunday. The thought of being injured never crossed my mind, I thought that I could go on forever improving at a dramatic rate. I was wrong. I am not invincible, just like everybody else.
2: Every Runner Gets Hurt.
A poll in 2009 found that 66 percent of runners got injured per year. As a runner, the odds are not in our favor. What matters is: How do we react to our injury? After I began to feel the pain in my foot I took two days off, and then I went out for a six-mile run. I stayed on a dirt path and told myself that it would be OK. When I got out of the shower after my run, I couldn't put any weight on my foot. I panicked, I posted messages on Facebook asking all my running friends and teammates what to do, and then I sat down and I cried and began to accept the fact that I was not going to be running today, or tomorrow, and probably not for awhile. As somebody that plans on being a runner for a long time, I need to accept the fact that the odds are that I will get hurt again and again, and no matter what I will come back for more.
3: I Can Still Be Active.
For a week I did nothing, and then I hopped on the bike that I hadn't ridden since I caught the runner's bug and starting cycling. I discovered deep-water running, but in my head I always made little fantasies. I wasn't just pumping my legs underwater in a church basement, I was 400 meters out from the finish line of a race in Central Park pushing to beat my PR.
So if you're a runner, like me, chances are you will get hurt sometime. When you do, keep your head high, and hope for the best. And when you are running, remember the words of the great George Sheehan: "Listen to your body."
This morning, I finally got cleared by a podiatrist to slowly begin training again. Tomorrow, six miles on trails. I can't wait to lace up my shoes and feel the cool October air surround me. The act of running makes my whole body feel good (barring injury), and I'm sure that I'll slip into feeling invincible again... It's hard not to when you feel like you're on top of the world. Next time, I just hope that I can stop for a moment and appreciate the moment before taking a deep breath and inevitably pushing myself harder.

KABUL: A suicide bomber killed three people including a policeman and wounded five others after blowing himself up near a cricket stadium in the Afghan capital Kabul on Wednesday, police said.
The attacker detonated the bomb after he was stopped at a security checkpoint as he walked towards the stadium where a match was under way.
"The security forces by sacrificing themselves have prevented the attacker from reaching the crowd (inside the stadium) and creating a catastrophe," police spokesman Basir Mujahid told AFP.
Two of the wounded were police officers.
