Re: Scrap a Day, August 13th
Hope you are feeling better today Brandy.
I had my carpets cleaned this past week and we had to let it dry for a few days. So I do not think I will be having a scrappy day.
I used to be indecisive; now I'm not sure.
Re: Scrap a Day, August 13th
I'm looking forward to scrapping some today. I have laundry almost done and I am enjoying my iced coffee while planning some layouts in my head.
Happy Sunday!

Re: Scrap a Day, August 13th
Glad to hear you're feeling better, Brandy!
DGD Makaylee had another Travel Softball Tournament this weekend. It was supposed to be over, but they had a local one so they decided to play along. They're doing well and go into the Championship this afternoon.
I've been trying to work on some of the challenges and get some layouts done off and on this weekend.

Re: Scrap a Day, August 13th
will be quiet around here later this afternoon/evening...so I am hoping to get another challenge done...I got couple done yesterday but need to take pics and upload today.....
horribly humid here which is soooooooooooo unusual...we woke up to 96% humidity....they said todays humidity has broken 50 year record...LOL
Re: Scrap a Day, August 13th
Believe it or not, I was able to do a little scrapping this morning and finished up this afternoon. Ed is still in the hospital because he is still coughing and has some fluid in his lungs. His daughter and Paige went to visit him this morning (which is why I was able to scrap) and then I took over. He had a fever of 101 yesterday but today he has no fever so the hope is that he comes home tomorrow and then follow up with the cardiologist in the next day or two.
So glad you are starting to feel better Brandy.
I did this for the August Countdown Challenge.

Re: Scrap a Day, August 13th
I'm in my scraproom right now. I'm putting together ideas for my next layout. I'm hoping to complete it tomorrow. The past 8 days have been very productive. I completed EIGHT. Yes, EIGHT layouts in EIGHT days! I've never completed that many layouts in such a short period of time. They are all layouts for my daughter's high school album(s). I'm feeling less stressed about finishing it before she graduates in June. I think I may be able to do it!

Therefore, innovative treatment strategies are essential for addressing the therapeutic challenges of this highly aggressive lung cancer.

'Souvenir' by Drew Holcomb and The Neighbours - songs overflowing with meaning(March 21, 2017)
No matter how you throw the dice, I will always reach out to the music of Drew Holcomb. He has the uncanny ability to write a personal song that touches everyone, too many times I've said: 'The man could be writing the story of my experiences as well as his own'. And that's as true today as it was 10 years ago as Drew Holcomb and The Neighbours lay down their new album 'Souvenir'.
The album is the same as you would expect, yet different, there are changes and nuances that take the music down some new but subtle paths. Still the songs about people and their lives, places and the experiences that go with them – the human touch that makes these songs touch that part of you where memories live.
There's introduction of 'The Morning Song' and the highly memorable 'California', the barely veiled rage of 'Fight For Love', the honesty of 'New Year' looking at what changes and what remains the same and the recollections of 'Postcard Memories' – all songs overflowing with meaning.
The key for me lies in the combination of soulful vocals and the total 'feel' of the whole album and the favourite tracks – 'Mama's Sunshine, Daddy's Rain' and the feeling-soaked 'Black and Blue'.

Jackson, Harvard President to Meet
Jesse Jackson said Monday that he will meet with Harvard University's president to discuss the school's diversity policy following reports that high-profile black professors may leave because of a dispute with the administration.
"The clarification will be good for Harvard, its faculty and the nation," Jackson said. "Harvard is our flagship university and there is concern expressed by the professors about the need for an unequivocal commitment to affirmative action, or inclusion."
The school's president, Lawrence Summers, is looking forward to a meeting "to talk about a range of issues," Harvard spokesman Joe Wrinn said.
The Boston Globe reported Dec. 22 that the rift began when Summers would not make a strong statement in support of affirmative action at a meeting with members of the Afro-American studies department.
According to the Globe and a report over the weekend in The New York Times, Henry Louis Gates Jr. and two other prominent members of the department _ Cornel West and Anthony Appiah _ are considering leaving for Princeton University because of problems with Summers.
Summers, inaugurated in October, reportedly rebuked West for recording a rap CD, for leading a political committee for the Rev. Al Sharpton's possible presidential campaign and for allowing grade inflation in his introductory black studies course.
"I don't think university presidents should lecture faculty on their political positions," Appiah said. "If he did it, he shouldn't have."
Added Jackson: "Whether he was on a rap record or conducting a symphony, he's written 16 books, held in critical acclaim."
West wrote the best-selling "Race Matters" and released an album of rap and spoken word material titled "Sketches of My Culture" in September.
There was no answer at his office Monday, and messages left for Gates and Harvard Law Professor Charles Ogletree, who has spoken on West's behalf, were not returned.
Summers said he supports diversity and meant no offense. "It's a very unfortunate misunderstanding if my views have been perceived in other ways," he told the Globe.
The Globe said Gates and Appiah visited Princeton in mid-December and met with campus leaders. West, who was a graduate student and taught there before coming to Harvard in 1994, has also spoken to officials there.
Gates, author of "Loose Cannons: Notes on the Culture Wars" and a winner of a 1998 National Humanities Medal, said only: "I do not have an offer from Princeton."

If you're pregnant or have a new baby, now might not be the best time to introduce a dog into the home. Puppies need a lot of training and time to adjust. With a new baby to look after as well, you may not have several hours a day to devote to a new dog. But once your child is three or over, it can be a great experience for the whole family.
Dogs Make Great Companions
It's true. Dogs make great companions. They are loyal, compassionate and trusting animals. Depending on the breed, they also display a lot of affection. Find a dog that is playful and your child will have a happy playmate. For shy children, they also make good confidants. Your child can talk to them and share their thoughts and secrets. They'll never feel judged. No matter how hard it may be for them to make friends, they'll have a best friend in the dog.
Dogs Are Good For Health
Dogs encourage physical activity for the whole family. They need to be walked and exercised regularly. And playing makes them happy. Running around with the dog will ensure your kids get lots of exercise.
Research also shows that children exposed to dogs are less likely to contract allergies such as asthma. Their immune systems will also be strengthened.
Dogs Teach Responsibility
Taking care of any pet is a big responsibility. They have to be fed each day and exercised. They also need care, attention, and grooming. Dogs have feelings too and if they feel neglected they will be miserable and act out. It's not always an easy job. Once the novelty has worn off, you still have to get up in the pouring rain to take them for a walk. Therefore, this teaches a valuable lesson about caring and being responsible for others.
But What If They Get Sick?
One big concern for parents is what happens if the dog gets sick. This can be extremely distressing for everyone concerned, particularly young children. But unfortunately, this is a fact of life and something that your children will have to face at some point in their lives. Though it is distressing, exposing them to illness and loss will help them understand these issues.
On a positive note, veterinary medicine continues to advance, and most illnesses can be managed. There are also many alternative remedies such as Yunnan Baiyao capsules, etc. These remedies will help your dog feel comfortable during illness.
Dogs Reduce Anxiety
Research has shown that dogs can reduce anxiety in kids and their owners. Cuddling, stroking and playing with a dog can have a calming effect. These types of interactions stimulate a hormone called Oxytocin, which eases anxiety.
There are countless reasons to consider introducing a dog into your home. It's true that they take some training and they can be expensive. However, the benefits are numerous. They teach children valuable lessons about loyalty and responsibility. They make the whole family fitter and healthier. Above all, they bring joy, happiness, and love.

Three-Star 2018 PA Linebacker Charlie Katshir Commits To Penn State
After all the National Signing Day madness Wednesday, James Franklin still had another recruit to bring into the fold on his birthday with the commitment of 2018 three-star linebacker Charlie Katshir.
My dream has come true!! I'm coming home #WEARE #107k pic.twitter.com/aoRo0sEHBm
— Charlie katshir (@CKatshir) February 2, 2017
Katshir, a Cumberland Valley High School star out of Mechanicsburg, Pa., chose to play for the Nittany Lions ahead of other offers from Pitt, Rutgers, West Virginia, Boston College, and Virginia.
"It's truly an honor," Katshir told PennLive last summer about the offer to play for Penn State. "I was very excited because I've been up to Penn State a bunch of times and I grew up watching PSU games. [Head coach James Franklin] decided to offer because he said I was the perfect fit for Penn State and wanted me to come to Happy Valley."
The three-star prospect is listed as the No. 38 best linebacker in the country and the No. 15 best player in the state. At 6'3 and 198 lbs, Katshir has the physique to be a safety, but also the talent to play outside linebacker for the Nittany Lions.
Katshir is a friend of fellow 2018 commit, the nation's top tight end Zack Kuntz.
Congrats to my boy @CKatshir on finally joining the family!! WE ARE forever brotha!! Love you man! pic.twitter.com/pA4FUzrejG
— Zack Kuntz (@zackkuntz_717) February 2, 2017
With this commitment, Penn State now has eight hard commits in the Class of 2018 — shooting it back to the No. 1 spot on 247 Sports' recruiting rankings for the year.

Pac-12 announces softball players of the week
WALNUT CREEK, Calif. - UCLA senior right fielder Alyssa Tiumalu and ARIZONA STATE senior pitcher Dallas Escobedo have been voted the Pac-12 Softball Player and Pitcher of the Week, respectively, for play from Feb. 4-10, the Conference office announced today.
Tiumalu (Elk Grove, Calif.) had hits in all five games last weekend, earning Tournament Most Valuable Player honors at the Oceanic Time Warner Cable Paradise Classic in Honolulu. The senior helped the Bruins to a 5-0 record to open the season, batting .615 (8-for-13) with nine runs batted in, two home runs, two doubles, two runs scored and two walks. She posted a slugging percentage of 1.231 and an on-base percentage of .688. The right fielder started the tournament with a pair of hits and two RBI against Delaware on Thursday, then had a standout performance on Friday, recording four hits and two homers in a doubleheader against Hampton and Hawai'i. Tiumalu concluded her MVP weekend with two hits against Delaware and Hawai'i on Saturday.
Escobedo (Glendale, Ariz.) went 3-0 in the first weekend of action as No. 7 Arizona State squad hosted the annual Kajikawa Classic in Tempe, Ariz. The Sun Devils went 6-0 on the weekend, outscoring its opponents 48-3 in the process. Escobedo gave up just one earned run while pitching three complete games, including two shutouts. She posted a 0.37 ERA with 32 strikeouts while holding opposing batters to just a .063 batting average, while giving up only four hits. Her 14 strikeouts in the 3-0 victory over Creighton on Thursday was the second-most strikeouts for a regular season in the senior's career.
Tiumalu's Player of the Week selection is the second of her career, with her first coming on Mar. 1, 2011. It is the 123rd overall weekly honor for UCLA. Escobedo's Pitcher of the Week honor is the sixth of her career, and the 80th weekly selection for Arizona State all-time.
UCLA returns to the mainland for the Stacy Winsberg Memorial Tournament in Los Angeles, Calif., beginning Friday, Feb. 14 and running through Sunday, Feb. 16. Arizona State remains at home this weekend, taking on Tennessee State on Thursday, Feb. 13 before hosting the Littlewood Classic Feb. 14-15.

TOMBALL, TX --A local soldier badly wounded in Iraq today received the key to his brand new home in Tomball. US Rep Michael McCaul said, "On behalf of a grateful nation and the United States Congress, corporal, thank you so much for your service."
HelpingAHero.org presented Army Corporal Rob Engelbrecht with a new house today in the Cypress Trails subdivision. In 2006, the soldier's Humvee hit a roadside bomb in Iraq. The corporal ended up losing his right leg and 60 percent of the vision in his left eye.
The builders designed the home for the wheelchair-bound soldier, including a specially built bathtub and sink designed to accommodate the chair.
"I'd give every one of them a hug, say thank you, because not every soldier that comes back wounded will get a house, but they're trying to make it that way," Corporal Engelbrecht said.
This is the 17th home donated in the Helping a Hero home program.

Laura Mvula has already been tipped as one of 2013's 'ones to watch', and with the release of her debut album Sing To The Moon on Monday it's just about time to see how right those predictions are.
Appearing on those ones to watch lists alongside bands such as Palma Violets, Mvula has somewhat less of the grassroots recognition of her raucous contemporaries, who started attracting attention after fans posted videos online of their energetic early gigs. But critics clearly heard a different kind of energy in the cleanly produced EP, She, released in November.

Because our blog is so random, I was searching for random acts of kindness from our blog's FB friends. I posted this request: "Has anyone experienced a random act of kindness from a writer?" I thought it would be a great way to share positive "writer" stories with you.
No one responded to my request except for my friend, Jeannette Watt. She said, "I have a story about a random act of kindness from an artist. Will that work?"
I love her positive, motivational stories, so I encouraged Jeannette to send me hers even though it didn't fit my request. But after reading the story, I decided to publish it because it's a great story.
I met Jeannette at the Florida Christian Writer's Conference several years ago and have been blessed by her encouragement and strong faith. She has a positive, spiritual energy unlike anyone else I know. She's not only a writer she's an artist, too.
Her book, Out of Egypt, His Children Come, will be available from OAK TARA Publishing soon.
Here's Jeannette's story:
Early in the summer of 1999, I began to write and draw for the first time in almost a decade… after putting away my girlish dreams to raise children. The first tale God laid on my heart was a story called The Hall of Sorrows.
During a brief period of research on art and children's stories, I learned about a man named Bob Timberlake, a famous artist who just happened to live one town over from my new location. I read about him, and as I did, I heard the Lord say I would meet Bob one day. I took God at His word, and went home excited.
Each time I told people over the next seven years, they would laugh. They were better artists, and artisans, and could not get an appointment with the man, what made me special? I knew in my heart that not only would I meet him, he would help me somehow.
In 2004, I bought a cottage on the same road Bob's studio is located. In 2006, the Hall of Sorrows came out in print. That same month, as I was driving my mother's old beat-up Ford pick-up truck home from helping at the church, God told me to turn right off the exit ramp instead of left to go home. I was obedient. I asked Him where He wanted me to go.
He said, "Turn left here."
I looked up and saw the sign for Timberlake Gallery in Lexington, N.C. I swallowed hard. I had known for seven years, but never felt led to go into that giant place.

I parked in the pea gravel drive in my dirty work clothes, no make-up, and my hair a fright. I put on my "big girl boots" and I walked into that fancy gallery anyway, sweat and all.
The older woman at the counter said to me, "Can I help you?"
"Yes, I need an appointment with Bob Timberlake." It came out of me, just like that.
The younger girl behind the counter looked away and laughed.
The woman at the desk said, "Honey, he doesn't take appointments. What did you need?"
I told her God spoke to me in 1999 while writing a book that I would meet Bob Timberlake. I explained how the book had just come into print, and as I began to turn left off I-85 to go home, the Lord told me to turn right instead.
Her jaw dropped.
"Honey," she whispered, "open house is this Saturday at ten a.m. and there are only five hundred tickets to meet him. You get here bright and early so you can come in and talk to him."
She winked at me. I smiled and I thanked her, and headed out the door.
My head began to spin. I had no portfolio. I had no professional clothes. All I had to drive that Saturday was my mother's old pick-up. What would I take him? What would I do?
"Give him one of your books." God spoke to my heart.
Oh wow- but God, the story is not perfect, and the illustrations were not edited correctly… all sorts of thoughts raced about how inadequate my offering was. All sorts of lies.
I gathered up the courage Saturday morning (in my brand new pink summer dress) and I was at the gallery by eight o'clock. I walked straight in the second the doors unlocked, and received a ticket numbered in the late forties. I went back outside with my book in hand and sat down next to a man carving ducks. That was when I realized I probably was not there to pitch my story.
The Hall of Sorrows was a fairy tale, his works and all his artisans seemed to be real folk. Even my dress was hippie chic, I thought. Once again, God put me in a place where I did not fit in.
About the time I wondered my reason for being there, the duck carver looked up and said, "What brings you here?"
I told him the same story I told the woman a few days earlier. He made polite response and went back to his work for a moment; and went inside. Later, as I stood in line behind more than forty other families, a man came to ask me if I was Jeannette Watt. How did he know who I was? Who was that man? Maybe he was security and somebody thought I was stalking or something…
"Yes, sir, I am Jeannette Watt."
"Mr. Timberlake would like to see you now."
Forty families or more stared at me, as well as the girl behind the counter. My knees felt unsteady, and my heart raced. Tears welled up in my eyes. I could feel the heat rise in my cheeks. I calmed myself as his friend told me everything would be fine, and I followed him back to a break room. There stood Bob Timberlake right in front of me.
I handed him the book and asked him to forgive me for the tears.
"Honey, I am just a man. I am nobody special." he said.
"Oh, no, that's not it. I mean, I love your work, but God told me years ago this day would come, and everybody laughed at me."
He smiled and asked me to sit down.
For almost an hour, Bob Timberlake and I sat together, having a conversation just as if we were old school chums. I learned that day he taught Prince Charles to paint. That was when I began to ask God how I had such favor to be in the same room, at the request of someone so famous?
Mr. Timberlake asked what brought me to him, as he probably could not sell my style book in his store. I told him I had no idea why I was there, except maybe to pray for him.
"Oh please do," he laughed, "I am always getting myself into trouble."
He and I talked for a little while longer, of how I was about to move to Virginia to begin arts ministry, etc. Then he said he had five hundred other people waiting to meet him outside, and he did not want to appear rude.
He took my book, told me if I ever needed anything to let him know, and offered a small bit of advice. He asked me not to become famous until after my children were grown because his children and grandchildren are the reason he lives, and he would not have missed that for the world.
I took the advice Bob Timberlake offered, and I did not pursue publication any further. I even stopped marketing the book already in print. I waited until my children were almost grown to begin my dream whole-heartedly, and because of my commitment to my first ministry (my family) God showed me favor at the first writer's conference I ever attended. I found a publisher for my second book.
If I could offer a bit of advice to my readers it would be this, listen to the Lord first. Go where He tells you. Do as He says. Not man. One never knows where obedience will lead. In my case, it was in the audience of a man who sells his work all over the world.
Has God ever asked you to do something that led you in a different direction?

The High Line's planting design is inspired by the self-seeded landscape that grew up between rail tracks after the trains stopped running in the 1980s. Today, the High Line includes more than 300 species of perennials, grasses, shrubs, and trees — each chosen for their hardiness, adaptability, diversity, and seasonal variation in color and texture. Some of the species that originally grew on the High Line's rail bed are reflected in the park landscape today.
This week we share with you one of our gardeners' current favorites.
If you have visited the High Line recently, you may have been surprised to see the colorful blooms of Hamamelis x intermedia 'Jelena,' commonly known as Jelena witch hazel. Mid-winter, when most other plants are dormant, this hearty shrub produces copper-colored flowers with delicate string-like petals.
Jelena witch hazel is a hybrid woodland shrub known for its vibrant fall foliage and wintertime blossoms. This particular cultivar is a hearty garden variety that was created by Belgian botanist Robert de Belder and named after his wife, Jelena.
Fun fact: The twigs from witch hazel plants are the favorite choice of water-diviners. Their slender branching stalks are perfect for creating the forked water-finders.
On the High Line between Gansevoort and West 14th Streets, and between West 20th and West 22nd Streets.

Patna: BJP on Saturday charged RJD chief Lalu
Prasad with playing a "villainous" role at the behest of
Congress to ensure that the Lokpal Bill was not passed in the
Rajya Sabha.
"Laluji plays a villainous role in the script written by
Congress to ensure that the Bill was not passed in the Rajya
Sabha," BJP spokesman Ravi Shankar Prasad told reporters here.
BJP was ready for debate on the issue even after
midnight on December 29, but Congress under a well-hatched
conspiracy forced an abrupt end of the debate, he said.
The BJP leader said that his party had decided to
launch `Save Democracy-Remove Congress` campaign across the
country from January three for eight days. "We`ll hold
nation-wide sit-in during the period," he said.
A BJP delegation jointly led by LK Advani and party
president Nitin Gadkari would organise a march to Rashtrapati
Bhavan on January 3 to hand over a memorandum to the
President, he said.

Junior Department
Pupils can begin their time at The Yehudi Menuhin School at many different ages, but they enjoy a particularly warm welcome if they start in the nurturing and creative atmosphere of our primary classes, affectionately called the Ds.
The Junior Department at The Yehudi Menuhin School accepts pupils from age 7 to 11. Each prospective pupil is invited to the School for a three day stay during which time they are given a variety of tasks in English and Maths in order to assess their academic ability. This does not influence the offer of a place at the School, which is made on the basis of musical performance, aptitude and the potential and ability to learn.
The pupils follow the National Curriculum in English, Maths and Science. In addition the pupils are taught History and IT skills by the Junior Department teacher, while German and Art and Music Theory are taught by specialist teachers. Pupils with English as a second language are offered support if necessary by an EFL specialist.
In the Summer term pupils in Years 3, 4 and 5 sit the QCA optional tests in English and Maths, and also sit internal end of year tests in all other academic subjects. The pupils in Year 6 are entered for the QCA SATs examinations. The results since 1998 have always been at least level 4 with the majority at level 5 in Maths, English and Science. The Science examination is now set internally using previous SATS questions from past papers. Since September 2015 the children have been following the new National Curriculum for Key Stage 2.
At the end of Year 6 the pupils then progress into the Senior school; there are no entrance exams. They continue their education in Key Stage 3.
Teaching Staff
The Ds' primary specialist teacher is Janet Poppe.
Philippa Brown is the Ds' part time teaching assisitant

Plagiarism sucks, but when it happens to you it sucks even more, so today I'm going to go on one of my rants about calling people out for stealing your work. Sort of understand what these music and hollywood guys and gals are talking about, but until someone starts stealing your own work it doesn't really hit home.
Look guys, I always talk a lot about taking someone's work to use as inspiration. I also have advocated taking an article and totally re-writing it with your own vocabulary in your own style. It's not really a great method to condone, but it can get a lot of people started in the article marketing world, so I would just rather see people use an article to get them going, even one of my own, than sit around and complain about how you can't write very well.
I've even told folks they can take an article, even one of mine again, and post it on their blog or site AS LONG AS THE LINKS BACK TO MY SITE STAY IN TACT.
On the other hand…taking an article and being so freaking lazy you don't even change a single word in it (with the exception of the author) and calling it your own is one of the laziest, pathetic and lowest things you can do and here's why.
One of the things that you are trying to do here online is create trust between yourself and those that are thinking of and actually are following you, whether it's on your blog, on a social site like facebook or twitter, a forum or anywhere else. Creating trust, establishing credibility come at a price…usually it's called work, ethics and character.
Now I know that there are times when the well runs a little dry, I understand, but that doesn't mean you start stealing things and this includes articles. You see as an online marketer, one that specializes in writing articles and blog posts, the articles and posts are the main "products" that I create online. There are other things as well, videos, pdf files and power point presentations, but 75% of my strategy comes from writing small articles and although I can crank out quite a bit of it, it doesn't make it easy. Marketing online is work and the body of work that we create here is what gets us to the next level or to where we want to be (hopefully!).
Don't steal. You'd think that you would know that after the ripe old age of five or so, but for some it seems to take a little bit longer. Plagiarism sucks, but it sucks more when it's you that has been ripped off. I didn't realize that until I went to a blog while I was conducting research. Found a really cool article on this forum, at least I thought it was, but realized why I thought so highly of it. The article I found on this site was mine. Hmm, cool.
Listen, just don't do it. At the bottom of this blog, on every single page, is a copyright logo, you need to take heed of that because simply taking an article and posting it somewhere else is against the law here just like it would be in the "real" world.
If you need help, give me a call…that's all you have to do. I will speak with most people, I'm a fairly easy guy to work with, but don't steal my shit. It's irritates the hell out of me and I start having my "Dexter" moments…and just who knows when I'll snap!

|We had already eaten half
So, it seems as though there is a Five Guys phenomenon going on in the US right now. Albuquerque is lucky enough to have one! I've eaten there a few times now, and the more I eat there the more I love it! Me and M ate there for lunch on Sunday, usually an iffy time to go because generally there is a line out the door. It was our lucky day because we walked right up to the counter.
What makes this place so special? Maybe it's that they offer two size of burgers (the regular size has 2 patties)? Maybe it's because for one price you can get any of the toppings that are offered? Maybe it's because the meat is fresh and never frozen? or maybe it's the fresh cut Idaho potato fries?
I think its the fries. They are SO delicious and made using peanut oil, which I think is what makes them the hot, crispy fried goodness that they are. They offer Original fries and Cajun. I love the Original ones so much, that I'm terrified to try the Cajun. I'm afraid they might be too salty or that the seasoning will make the fries get soggy. Maybe I'm mistaken, but I don't want to take the risk. They also give you so many! M and I usually split a small, and we can't finish it. They have a wipe board near the registers that tell you where the potatoes they are using are from; I think that's cool.
I always get a little bacon cheeseburger with lettuce, extra pickles, tomatoes, and mustard (my mouth is watering right now). M actually gotta little one too...how cute! Oh, and their pickles. X-tra thick, crinkled cut dills. Nice.
If you haven't been there yet, Five Guys is definitely worth a trip! Every time I've been there it's been packed, so I can't recommend a good time to go, but I can say that the wait is never long and there is plenty of seating. I think the prices are ok, but I usually hear someone complaining about how expensive they are. I posted the menu, so you can see for yourself.

The concept of "big data" has probably resulted in more disruption to our understanding of how a data warehouse should work, than to data warehouses themselves — at least thus far. In recent weeks, Tom's IT Pro has been publishing installments in my series on business intelligence (BI), whose core component for most enterprises has been the data warehouse. It's the place where an enterprise collects its principal repository of data used in reporting and analytics.
Until now the data warehouse has been the foundation for the relational database in the enterprise, and all the applications that are leveraged on top of that. "Big data," on the other hand, has its own foundation in mind, thank you very much: a new file system that handles unstructured data andthat incorporates storage volumes, both locally and remotely. That's Hadoop, the strangely named component that enables very fast, if very simple, processes on enormous clusters of data — clusters too large for the OLAP cubes around which the enterprise data universe once revolved. The enormity of big data is stemming from behavioral data, huge streams of unstructured sources, often with big content types. Hadoop is a new fact of everyday existence in the data center; it's not going away, especially since Microsoft began including it with Windows Server 2012.
So the problem for vendors in this space has been to define the place of Hadoop. Newcomers, playing the disruption card, prefer to see it as a kind of "cluster bomb," detonating existing silos and enabling a class of rapid-fire business analytics (BA) software, called dashboards. Analytics veterans such as IBM prefer to play the integration card, arguing that Hadoop has one or more roles to play in a re-architected, data warehouse as a fast filter, data "landing zone," and even archival maintenance system.
Scrambling for a middle ground amid these two extremes is San Mateo-based startup Platfora, whose strategy is to disrupt the disruptors. With a bold and perhaps brash announcement this morning that includes the proclamation, "BI is BS," Platfora is re-introducing its own Big Data Analytics Platform (BDAP) as version 3.0.
Although from a distance, it presents the profile of a visualization tool like Tableau, Platfora founder and CEO Ben Werther explains that the platform's real purpose is to present detailed breakdowns of customer records, including Web site behaviors, purchase history, and call center activities. BDAP looks for these common elements, but instead of relying upon IT professionals to craft queries using a language like SQL, it formulates Hadoop analytics streams that are already tailored to these records.
For those familiar with Platfora, version 3.0 adds the following three features:
- Platfora Event Stream Analytics: Allows businesses to analyze the behavior of their customers and products across many "digital touchpoints," such as clicks on a webpage, access on a mobile application, records from a call center, and even product sales. And to do this in a timely, actionable manner.
- Platfora Iterative Segmentation: Allows businesses to segment and track their customers by their behaviors based on demographic data and those "digital touchpoints."
- Platfora Entity-Centric Data Catalog: Allows businesses to find relevant data and analysis based on how that data is organized around an entity, such as a customer or product.

Peptic ulcers: treatment
Peptic ulcers occur in the stomach — gastric ulcers — and the duodenum (the first part of the small intestine) — duodenal ulcers. They result from an imbalance between the amount of acid in your stomach and its protective lining.
In the past it was believed that ulcers were caused by stress, poor eating habits, too much rich, fatty food or spicy food, alcohol or caffeine. However, it is now known that most peptic ulcers are caused by the Helicobacter pylori bacterium (also known as H. pylori). This is particularly true of duodenal ulcers.
The cause of most other peptic ulcers is the regular use of medicines such as aspirin and other non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS), which are often used to treat the symptoms of arthritis.
Treatment for peptic ulcers depends on the cause of the ulcer and can include any or all of the following:
- antibiotics to eradicate the H. pylori bacteria;
- medicines to reduce the amount of acid in your stomach and promote healing of the ulcer; and
- stopping or changing any medicines that may have caused the ulcer.
Eradication of H. pylori
The majority of duodenal ulcers and a large percentage of gastric ulcers are caused by the bacterium H. pylori. Most people with ulcers will be tested to see if they are infected with H. pylori.
The medicines used to treat ulcers associated with H. pylori infection include:
- a medicine that suppresses the production of stomach acid (usually a proton pump inhibitor), which helps the ulcer to heal and relieves peptic ulcer pain; plus
- antibiotics to eradicate the H. pylori bacteria.
Unfortunately, no single antibiotic is effective against H. pylori, so combination therapy is given to reduce the risk of the bacteria becoming resistant to treatment.
Triple therapy
The first-choice treatment for eradicating H. pylori is called triple therapy, and includes a proton pump inhibitor (omeprazole or esomeprazole) plus 2 antibiotics — clarithromycin and amoxycillin. These medicines need to be taken twice daily for 7 days.
There are other combinations of medicines that can be used if you are allergic to penicillin or if first-line therapy is not effective in eradicating H. pylori. Your doctor will advise you which combination will be most likely to work for you. Convenient 'combination packs' containing all the medicines for the treatment are available.
This treatment has revolutionised the treatment of peptic ulcers worldwide. Depending on the medicines used, it can have a success rate of 85 to 90 per cent in eradicating H. Pylori and treating peptic ulcers. Eradicating H. pylori also significantly reduces the chance of relapse.
It is vital that you follow the treatment exactly according to your doctor's instructions — the success rate is much lower if the tablets are not taken as directed. Common side effects include taste disturbance, nausea and loose stools, although side effects are usually mild.
Some people (for example, those with complicated ulcers or ulcers associated with both H.pylori infection and use of NSAIDs) may need ongoing treatment with a proton pump inhibitor for a period of time after completing the antibiotic course. Histamine H2-receptor antagonists (a different type of medicine that reduces stomach acid secretion) can be used but are less effective than proton pump inhibitors.
NSAID-induced ulcers
About 30 per cent of all gastric ulcers may be caused by the long-term use of painkillers known as non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs), such as aspirin and ibuprofen. Some NSAIDs are more likely to cause ulcers than others.
In addition, among people who use NSAIDs, some are at higher risk of developing peptic ulcers than others. NSAID users who are infected with H.pylori have a greatly increased risk of developing a peptic ulcer. Other risk factors include older age, a history of peptic ulcer disease and being a smoker.
The risk of developing an ulcer while taking an NSAID can be reduced by minimising the use of NSAIDs, treating H. pylori infection (if present) and, in some cases, taking a proton pump inhibitor.
Treatment for NSAID-induced ulcers
Treatment for NSAID-induced ulcers involves stopping the NSAID (if possible) and taking a medicine to suppress acid secretion and promote healing. Proton pump inhibitors are usually used, as they are more effective than H2-receptor antagonists.
Your doctor will also recommend testing for H. pylori infection and eradication treatment if necessary.
Antacids neutralise the stomach's acid and so usually give temporary relief from ulcer pain. There are many varieties available without a prescription. Ask your pharmacist for advice about which one would be best for you.
If you are being treated for H. pylori infection, you should check with your doctor before taking an antacid, because some of the antibiotics used in eradication therapy for H. pylori don't work as well when combined with an antacid.
Lifestyle changes
Your doctor may also give you dietary guidelines to follow, such as reducing or eliminating alcohol, as it can worsen ulcers and prevent healing. It's a good idea to avoid any foods that tend to aggravate your symptoms.
If you are a smoker, your doctor will also recommend you stop smoking as it has been shown that smokers have a higher incidence of ulcer complications and that it takes longer to heal their ulcers than non-smokers.

Watch the Official Veronica Mars Trailer
Just the tip of the iceberg.
While the previous Veronica Mars trailers took time to graciously thank the fans and hype the film's love triangle, the new official trailer is all sweet, sweet VM action. Teased earlier tonight on E!, the trailer offers us a glimpse of Veronica's inevitable struggle with her attraction to Logan, her banter with papa Keith and, perhaps most significantly, her conflict with a skeevy-looking Jerry O'Connell as Sheriff Dan Lamb, brother to the late, not particularly great Don Lamb. The Lamb family sure knows how to raise a smarmy, power-obsessed son. Nature vs. nurture: The debate rages on.

Outlook for Home Prices Clouded by Spat Over Historical Trends
Yale University economist Robert Shiller has often dazzled audiences with a chart showing home prices from 1890 to present. Someone even used Mr. Shiller's chart to make a YouTube video that puts its viewer on a roller-coaster ride over peaks and valleys in home pricing. It's a bumpy ride.
Dueling Economists
See U.S. home prices since 1890 according to Robert Shiller's chart; compare with Thomas Lawler's adapted version.
Now another economist, Thomas Lawler, says Prof. Shiller's chart is "bogus." Mr. Lawler says Mr. Shiller cobbled together data that are inconsistent and sometimes unreliable. Mr. Shiller defends his work and accuses Mr. Lawler of making "wild allegations."
The clash is more than just a spat between two of America's most prominent housing mavens. It could affect the debate about exactly where the U.S. is in its housing cycle. The squabble also illustrates the paucity of reliable information on house prices.
If they rely too heavily on house-price gauges, politicians may get a distorted view of the severity of the slump and support overly drastic measures, says Kenneth Rosen, a housing economist at the University of California, Berkeley. Mr. Lawler says the Shiller chart also appears to understate the long-run rate of increase in home prices.
No one has found a precise way to measure changes in house prices. Because no two homes are exactly alike, changes in the price of one won't necessarily be matched even by apparently similar homes nearby, much less those hundreds of miles away. Though some indexes track price changes in the same set of houses over time, those can be distorted by major improvements in some of the houses and deterioration in others. The publicly recorded transaction prices, used to create indexes, often are distorted by incentives given to buyers that aren't tallied in the price.
But that doesn't stop analysts from extrapolating from what may be dubious data. In a March 30 report, T2 Partners LLC, a New York hedge-fund manager, drew on the Shiller chart to conclude that on average U.S. home prices need to drop another 13% to get back in line with the long-term trend.
Mr. Lawler has created an adjusted version of the Shiller chart, backing up his view that house prices already are nearing a bottom in much of the country. A T2 partner called Mr. Lawler's critique "valid."
While updating his book "Irrational Exuberance" in 2004, Mr. Shiller says he was surprised to find little data on long-term house-price trends. So he spliced together his own chart from various price indexes and studies. He conceded that the chart was "imperfect," but added that "it appears to be the best that can be found for this long time period."
For 1890 to 1934, Mr. Shiller used data from a trio of economists led by Leo Grebler. Because he found no index for 1934 through 1953, Mr. Shiller wrote, "I had my research assistants fill that gap by tabulating prices in for-sale-by-owner ads in old newspapers," covering just five cities. For 1953 through 1975, Mr. Shiller used an index compiled by the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics, or BLS. An index from the regulator of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac covers the period through 1986, after which Mr. Shiller uses the S&P/Case-Shiller index he created with another economist, Karl Case.

A Bumpy Ride
Watch a You Tube video that turns Mr. Shiller's housing-price index into a roller-coaster ride.
"In other words," Mr. Lawler wrote in a recent edition of his daily housing-market newsletter, "the long-term chart is based on a concatenation of different time series of home prices which use different methodologies, have different samples, measure different things, and all in all are, well, different."
Mr. Lawler, a former Fannie Mae economist who now is an independent consultant in Leesburg, Va., says the BLS data used by Mr. Shiller was based on a "very small sample" and so isn't reliable. Mr. Shiller's chart shows that home prices from 1940 through 2000 rose at an annual real, or inflation-adjusted, rate of 0.7%. Data from the Census Bureau, however, puts the real rate at 2.3% for that period. Part of the difference may be due to improvements in the quality of homes, Mr. Lawler says, but he doubts that accounts for the whole gap.
Mr. Shiller responds in an email that much of the difference "is indeed caused by quality change." He cites Census data showing that nearly a third of American homes lacked running water in 1940.
Home-price indexes all have their flaws. The various S&P/Case-Shiller indexes are limited to 20 metro areas and lately have been heavily affected by sales of foreclosed homes, whose prices reflect banks' need to dump assets quickly. The Federal Housing Finance Agency, or FHFA, index (formerly known as the Ofheo index) is based only on homes financed with loans owned or guaranteed by government-backed mortgage investors Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac; that excludes most homes recently bought with subprime loans,understating the damage.
"Measurement is more an art than a science," says Mr. Lawler. He favors more government spending on house-price data. For now, Mr. Lawler says, the government does a better job with its monthly index of pricing for women's undergarments than it does with housing.
Despite the criticism, Mr. Shiller's long-run chart is unlikely to fade away. Rich Hodge, a Web site developer in Simi Valley, Calif., who used Mr. Shiller's chart two years ago to create his YouTube roller-coaster video, stands by the economist. Says Mr. Hodge: "He's a pretty accurate guy."

Victor McKusick - a man who has always been in the forefront of advancing science finds himself looking back these days.
He's looking back more than a century, at one of the most celebrated characters ever to populate U.S. history Abraham Lincoln.
Last month, Dr. McKusick, professor of medical genetics at Johns Hopkins. was named to head a committee that will study the technical and ethical feasibility of examining samples of hair, bone and blood from Abraham Lincoln, to see if there is genetic material that could be cloned, so that the DNA of the 16th president could be studied.

I've been holding on to this recipe for some time. Hoarding it. Because there are simply some recipes that can't be described in words, and I'm afraid this may be one of them.
So instead of describing it, because I can't, I'll tell you how to make it. You take little cubes of smoked mozzarella, and you pack them into some cold, leftover risotto. And then you form them into little balls and fry them. And what happens, see, is that the outside gets crispy and the inside gets all melty from the cheese. And bluebirds sing and angels fly and money begins to grow on trees. And you look outside your window, and there's the boy you had a crush on in 5th grade, and he's holding up a sign that says he had a crush on you, too, back in 1980, only he was too scared to tell you because he found you too. darn. pretty. These things will happen if you make these arancini.
Recipe for Smoked Mozzarella Arancini
Adapted from Big Night In by Domenica Marchetti (Chronicle, 2008)
I'm going to cheat here by asking you to make whatever kind of risotto you like. I'm not going to give you a recipe, because you can find one easily enough, and, in fact, you probably have one in your arsenal already.
Just as when you make fried rice, you need the risotto to be extremely cold for it to maintain its shape during frying, so I strongly, strongly encourage you to refrigerate the cooked risotto overnight before proceeding.
You will also need 2 or 3 eggs, smoked mozzarella cut into very small cubes (I used about 8 ounces), panko, and vegetable or olive oil. You'll also want some of your favorite marinara sauce for dipping.
Set up a breading station with separate bowls of flour, beaten egg (start with two) and panko.
Take about 2 teaspoons of the cold, cooked risotto into your palm, and press a cubed piece of cheese in the center. Form the rice into a ball, encasing the cheese completely so you can't see it. (If it's sticky, try wetting your hands.) Roll the ball first in the flour, then in the eggs (use a fork if you like), and finally in the panko. Place it on a large rimmed sheet pan, and continue with the remaining rice, cheese, and breading ingredients.
To fry: heat vegetable or olive oil to the depth of one inch in a deep frying pan. Affix a thermometer to the side, if you have one, so you can do your best to maintain a temperature of 350 degrees.
Carefully fry 6 to 8 arancini at a time, making sure not to crowd the pan, and turn for 3 or 4 minutes (or less, or more, depending on how big they are) until they're nicely browned all over. Transfer with a slotted spoon to a paper-towel lined platter to drain. Repeat.
Serve immediately, with warm marinara sauce for dipping.
Yield will vary, depending on how much risotto you begin with.

text: Martell: Argentina Drought Easing, Wet Forecast for Southern Brazil December 30, 2013 05:08 AM Tweet TAGS: Marketing, Overseas December 18, 2014 By Julianne Johnston Pro Farmer Digital Managing Editor Email Twitter The following content was provided by meteorologist Gail Martell of MartellCropProjections.com: Argentina Drought Easing, Crop Damage Incurred Severe drought in Argentina has eased with strong showers recently in the top farm provinces. A three-week stretch of intense heat and dryness is giving way to showers as a cool front pushes northward through the Argentina grain belt. Buenos Aires, the top farm province, has already received generous rainfall in excess of 1 inch (25 millimeters). Cordoba, a key corn area, also received scattered heavy rain on Saturday night from a cluster of strong thunderstorms. Up to 3 inches of rain occurred. Still dry, the northern third of the Argentina soybean belt is expecting soaking rainfall with a north-moving cool front. Around 1 - 1.5 inches of rain is predicted in soybean areas of Santa Fe, upper Cordoba and Chaco. Temperatures were 8-10 degrees F above normal in the 2 weeks leading up to Christmas at Marcos Juarez, a key corn area in eastern Cordoba. Highs in the upper 90s to near 100 F were common. South Brazil Expecting Heavy Rain Rio Grande do Sul and Parana, Brazil's 2 key southern farm states have been subject to strong drying in December. However, temperatures have been less extreme than Argentina, especially Parana. A large stable ridge of high pressure in the western Atlantic Ocean has produced subsiding winds onshore that dry out the atmosphere, stifling rain showers. Dryness in Parana became severe, hardly any rain occurring in the 15 days leading up to Christmas. In a typical December, showers are abundant, 1.65 inches weekly in Brazil's second leading farm state. The temperatures in Parana have been moderated by cool ocean breezes. Daily maximum temperatures have been mostly mid 80s F in December, a result of moderating from the Atlantic Ocean high pressure system. Western Parana has been hotter, occasionally experiencing highs in the 90s F. Rio Grande do Sul , Brazil's southern farm state, was less affected by cool high pressure experiencing hotter growing conditions. Highs in the mid-upper 90s F have been rather common in recent weeks. Moreover, drought intensified recently, though previously, in early December growing conditions were ideally wet. Very heavy rainfall is now predicted Brazil's two southern farm states, 3-4 inches based on the 7-day GFS model. The forecast is wetter in southern Brazil than Argentina. In summary, Argentina weather stress has been far worse than South Brazil due to hotter temperatures in the recent 2 weeks. In addition Argentina crops were planted on a delayed timetable and thus have a shallow a root system. This may lead to unusually severe moisture stress. Back to news
