So Why Exactly Is The Lady A Tramp?
I've never understood "The Lady is a Tramp."
The lyrics to that brassy Rogers & Hart tune made famous by Frank Sinatra, if you actually listen to them, ascribe to "The Lady" such qualities as one associates with a person of some social standing and breeding—not actual tramp-like qualities:
"She loves the theater, but doesn't come late…" "She'd never bother with people she'd hate…" "Doesn't like dice games with sharpies and frauds…" "Won't dish the dirt with the rest of those broads…."
Seems to me the lady is a class act.
Nevertheless, those are the lyrics that Frank Sinatra made famous, and that is the song he sang for the first record printed on The Beatles' brand new Apple Corps label back in mid-1970.
The story, as told in Tony Bramwell's "Magical Mystery Tours: My Life With The Beatles" (which is a must-have book for Father's Day, assuming you are a father and a Beatle's guy), goes like this: one of the Beatles' people decided it would be fun to have a new version of "The Lady Is A Tramp," with lyrics slightly altered, sung by Frank Sinatra himself and presented as a birthday gift to Ringo's wife, Maureen.
I'm not sure how Maureen felt about it, but since, back in those days, anything The Beatles wanted they could pretty much make happen, it happened exactly that way: Sammy Cahn rewrote the lyrics, Sinatra himself recorded the song, and one copy was pressed using the very first Apple Corps label and presented to Maureen.
Which makes "The Lady is a Tramp" the first printing of a record on Apple, before "Hey Jude."
With important issues like this out of the way, on Monday we will return to current events—including an office furniture company that appears to offer good long term value, and the latest antics of our favorite CEO-of-a-money-losing-Internet-company, who used the recent Bear Stearns conference to repeat a false rumor about his two biggest competitors.
In the meantime, is it just me or does it seem pathetic that Washington is debating the existing of global warming while—as reported in today's Wall Street Journal—glaciers in the Peruvian Andes are melting away at a thirty-feet-a-year rate—and they'll be gone as quickly as 40 years from now?

well what you prefer Washington do ? Act ? Ignore ? Speed up the melting by lowering interest rates ?

Eliminating the tax loophole that treats SUVs like trucks instead of cars would be one thing; classifying SUVs as "cars" rather than "trucks" under Federal mileage standards would be another; jacking up overall mileage requirements from 27.5 mpg to something like 40 would be another; raising federal taxes on gasoline would be a fourth...

Well i gotta figure Jeff's " liberalism " ( Why do we think that is liberal ? ) wouldn't fly in any political party today ..and certainly not the red states.

It's puzzling that obviously none of the previous comments deals with your question why the lady is named (or, if a woman sings the song, naming herself) a tramp.
However - I never wondered why this "lady" is (being called) a "tramp".
The lyrics describe a lady - just the way I, an Austrian, understand the German word "Dame" (don't you ponounce this English!) as a term for a cliche role. Traditionally first unsed for female members of the nobility, later also for merchant class women, especially when caring for fine outfits and hairstyles. In the 20th century, still some of these attributes were expected from women who were addressed as "ladies" not only for politeness reasons, and - as noble titles vanished - the term "real lady" became usual, sometimes used for women definitely belonging to the upper class, sometimes also for women seen "worth" to be patronizingly accepted by the upper class as (almost) equal.
All this has from the very beginning to do with bumptiousness and makes it quite understandable why especially progressive feminists reject it as insulting to be called "ladies". A drastic explanation is given by the ironical characterization of what and how ladies are expected to be in all the movie versions of the Stepford story.
The lady in this song is described, like you stated, a classy persion: self-conscious, intelligent, respectful but as well letting others know what her own will is and that she intends to decide and control her own fate. And thus, according to the definitions by those who use the term "lady" all too frequently and demanding women to fit into that sort of role, she refuses to be seen as a lady, instead provokingly states that she prefers to be seen as a "tramp" by all those bumptious folks exemplary mentioned: frauds, sharpies (guys who strive for being seen as "cool" by behaving as male chauvinists and wrapping their bodies, gym-styled merely for image reasons, in sharp clothets) "dirt-dishing" broads (bored, conniving gossip-talking P. Hilton clones), aso.
The woman's message: "call me a tramp, to me that's the best appreciation you bums are able to - should you ever seriously show me some esteem, then I'd have to worry what terribly mistake I must have made."

Entering Space: Creating a Spacefaring Civilization
Jeremy P. Tarcher/Putnam, 1999 - Science - 305 pages
"Robert Zubrin is already one of the few individuals to have had a marked impact on U.S. space policy, with his compelling advocacy of a streamlined and affordable human mission to Mars. Having galvanized the Mars mission, he now turns his attention to the larger picture of humanity's place in space, writing with a very impressive clarity, reminiscent of Asimov or McPhee. This book works among other ways as a brilliant bit of geography, or rather cosmography, in that after reading it you have a clearer idea than before of where you stand in the universe." Kim Stanley Robinson, author of "Red Mars", "Green Mars", and "Blue Mars" "Bob Zubrin is the Tom Paine of space -and about tie we had one, too. An engineer who knows how to do the feats of envisions, he unfurls an agenda for the expansion of world civilization, not just another plan for going further out. This lends his book the quality of a thoughtful manifesto, well worked out in scenarios for development that both make a profit and enlarge the human prospect." Gregory Benford, author of "Deep Time" "--Entering space- as a plan for the human future is unique in being both visionary and technically sound. It is a call to adventure and a plan for our future." Chris McKay, scientist, NASA Center for Mars Exploration.

Zubrin's book, The Case For Mars is focused and outstanding. This book takes a broader view, going past Mars and into our more uncertain future. To me, it loses a little of the earlier book's ... Read full review

Sooo... I have been away for awhile, but I have an awesome excuse. I have a bun in the oven.
I don't necessarily like that expression but it's fitting for a food blog.
Andrew and I found out we were expecting towards the beginning of July and for a long time I could not fathom blogging about food, nor did I have the motivation to whip up any new recipes, cook, eat or think about food. If I had posted a blog, it would have consisted of my love affair with non-dairy ice cream treats and orange juice (my lifesavers).
Our sweet baby boy is due towards the end of March and I am in the process of transitioning over to a lifestyle blog (baby, home life, some eats, etc). Luminary Havens will remain, but probably only with the occasional vegan/gluten free restaurant reviews. My heart's in a different place now for blogging inspiration and I am following it.
This foodie baby loves vegan hot chocolate and kicking when I make dinner.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
A new poll reveals that despite their consistent distrust of Barack Obama, Israelis actually prefer the current president to any of his potential Republican challengers.
Conducted by the Dahaf Institute, the survey asked a sampling of 500 Israeli Jews to rate Obama compared individually to the Republican presidential frontrunners. The results were as follows:
When Obama first took office, his support among Israelis was barely in double digits. Nearly one year after his election, just 12 percent said they believed Obama was a true friend of Israel.
Obama did poll better among Israelis later in his presidency, but even at the height of his "popularity," a strong 60 percent majority still said he was no friend of the Jewish state.
As recently as last summer, a mere 25 percent of Israelis viewed Obama as a president their nation could rely on.
Meanwhile, Mitt Romney, Newt Gingrich and Rick Santorum have been busy loudly declaring their undying dedication to Israel, begging the question, why would Israelis prefer the untrustworthy Obama to these men?
Perhaps having been burned by Republican presidents in the past - Bush Sr. imposed the "Oslo" peace process and the PLO upon Israel, and Bush Jr. was the driving force behind the Gaza pullout - Israelis now believe a president who is clearly not their ally will actually be able to do less damage.

Israel News - Stay Informed, Pray Informed
After a series of four minor earthquakes hit northern Israel between last Thursday and Sunday afternoon, Israel's government signaled growing concern that hundreds of thousands of buildings across the country could crumble if and when a larger tremor hits.
Residents of northern Israel, particularly those living near the Sea of Galilee, were shook by an earthquake measuring 3.6 on the Richter scale on Thursday. Two days later, a 3.0 trembler hit the same area, and yesterday, not one, but two earthquakes both measuring 3.6 were felt just hours apart.
Minor earthquakes are not uncommon in the region, and rarely cause any serious damage. But expert have been warning for years that eventually a larger earthquake will strike, and that when it does, Israel could be in for great catastrophe.
Using the recent string of earthquakes as a pretext, Home Front Minister Gilad Erdan on Sunday called an emergency government meeting to assess where Israel is at regarding its preparedness to deal with a major earthquake scenario.
With the poor building standards used in the construction of thousands of structures across the country, but especially in the north, any major earthquake with its epicenter in or near to Israel is expected to cause thousands of casualties.
At Sunday's government meeting, various officials assured Erdan that their agencies and government bodies are prepared and continue to prepare for a such an occurrence. Those gathered also agreed to keep in closer contact with seismologists monitoring the situation.
Over the past few years, Israel's Home Front Command has held a number of national drills that simulated the aftermath of a major earthquake. The official Home Front Command website also presents detailed instructions on how people should respond when an earthquake hits.
In 2005, Israel also created National Outline Plan 38 to stabilize and reinforce older structures or those built under more faulty building codes. The plan encourages local contractors to take these improvements upon themselves in return for financial benefits provided by the state. Unfortunately, the incentive has been too little for most, and many officials no longer believe the plan is viable.

Here Come The Brides: Raven Symone And Her Lady Love AzMarie Coupled Up In All White Errythang
Saturday night Raven Symone gave us a good glimpse at what a wedding might look like for her and girlfriend of two years, Az Marie Livingston. The actress was spotted wearing all white alongside her boo for Ludacris' Saturday night all-white party at Compound.
Raven tweeted and instagrammed about her Ludaday weekend adventure. BOSSIP was also on hand for most of the Ludaday events and we couldn't help but notice that Raven barely budged without her boo by her side. Should these two just go ahead and wed? We heard they're already living together in Raven's $11K per month luxury crib in NYC…
Hit the flip to see who else was seen on the scene.

Asset Publisher
Go Slow! Asbestos it's a NO Go!
National Asbestos Awareness Month launched on 01 November with the campaign's new message, "Renovating? Go Slow! Asbestos – It's a NO GO!" reminding Australian's about the dangers of asbestos.
1 in 3 Australian homes contain asbestos building materials. Homes built or renovated before 1987 are highly likely to contain asbestos products. Asbestos can be found under floor coverings, in walls, ceilings, and around hot water pipes, in brick, weatherboard, fibro and clad homes.
The risk to families is when asbestos building materials are disturbed or damaged and this can release dangerous dust and fibres that can be inhaled.
"We have many older homes in Charters Towers, many of which may contain Asbestos." said Cr Mike Power. "People are putting themselves and their families at risk when they carry out renovations and don't take the appropriate measures to control risks associated with asbestos."
With Asbestos-related diseases continuing to increase, the importance of raising awareness is paramount.
During Asbestos Awareness Month, all Australians are invited to hold a Blue Lamington Drive at home, at work or at school to help raise awareness of the dangers of asbestos when renovating. This will also raise vital funds to support the Asbestos Diseases Research Institute.
To find out more about the Blue Lamington Drive visit www.bluelamington.com
Before renovating, visit www.asbestosawareness.com.au to learn where asbestos might be found in your home, the dangers of disturbing it and how best to manage it.

British Village Bans St. George's Flag Fearing It Would Upset Muslims
The city council of a tiny rural hamlet in Somerset, England, has vetoed a plan to fly the flag of St. George because its links to the Christian Crusades in the Middle Ages may offend the town's Muslim residents.
The village of Radstock, about 10 miles southwest of Bath, and 120 miles west of London, has a population of about 5,620 – including just 16 Muslims, according to government figures.
Indeed, Radstock's Muslim population is so mall, there is no local mosque.
The Council will instead fly the Union Jack at its civic flagpole instead of the more divisive St. George banner.
St. George's Cross has been the emblem of dozens of states across Europe and is rooted in the Crusades, which sought to free the Holy Land from the Muslims. St. George has also become the unofficial "patron saint" of England. In recent years, it has been embraced by British nationalists and football hooligans.
Labour Councilor Eleanor Jackson, a university lecturer and teacher, told Bath Chronicle: "My big problem is that it is offensive to some Muslims but even more so that it has been hijacked by the far right. My thoughts are we ought to drop it for 20 years."
In response, John Clements, vice president of the Royal Society of St. George, a patriotic organization, called the Radstock councilors' decision "nonsense" and a form of "censoring" of the national flag.
Rather surprisingly, Nasima Begum, a spokeswoman for the Muslim Council of Britain, also disagreed with the council's move to ban the flag.
"St. George needs to take his rightful place as a national symbol of inclusivity rather than a symbol of hatred," she said.
"St. George actually lived before the birth of Islam and should not be associated with any hatred of Muslims."
Similarly, Rizwan Ahmed of the Bristol Muslim Cultural Society, said: "It is political correctness going a bit too far. Use by the far right is one thing, but to say that Muslims are offended I don't think is correct."
Ahmed added: "I think, if anything, this will harm understanding of Muslim people, and it feeds into the ideas that some people have of 'Oh, here they go again, pandering to the needs of Muslim people,' when actually it is not offensive.
Ahmed even admitted that St George's flag is meaningful to British heritage and should be preserved.
Some local residents are also annoyed.
Pensioner Irene Burchell, 76, told the Daily Mail: "The council does not speak for the people of Radstock, and certainly does not speak for me. I think it is absolute nonsense. The St George's flag has been adopted by England for centuries. We are the only ones who never celebrate April 23 [St. George's Day ] the way other people celebrate their national day."
Another Radstock native, 70-year-old Jenny Fisher, complained: "The only people who will be left using the flag will be football hooligans and this plays into that. I don't think Muslims would be offended by it. Why would they? They live here. It's stupid."

Over the past year, I've been fortunate enough to dine at some of the most wonderful restaurants in Los Angeles. From Downtown to Marina del Rey, this city is jam packed with flavors from around the globe and I've been loving every bite.
|@kaseys_kitchen via Instagram
A little while back I had the chance to dive into a type of cuisine that is just starting to emerge into mainstream (with much thanks to Chef Ricardo Zarate), which is Peruvian food. Having only become familiar with this cuisine after pausing on an Anthony Bourdain special while channel surfing, I was quite intrigued when I received an invitation to dine at Paiche in Marina del Rey's recently renovated Marina Marketplace.
The atmosphere of Paiche is cool and coastal with sleek lines that are reminiscent of the rolling tide, but who really cares about that... let's talk about the stellar food!
Paiche is Peruvian Food with a Japanese twist. So think, "Ceviche meets Sushi"! I was fortunate enough to have Chef Ricardo join me during my tasting and let's just say, we are now best friends.
|@kaseys_kitchen via Instagram
In between chatting... being dared to eat a shrimp head... and being put in a death grip, I enjoyed one of the most exquisite meals, simply, ever. Take a scroll through my delicious journey that included sashimi, ceviche, and some knock-out cocktails.
We started off with a funny sounding dish called "Spatchcocked" which was tender cubes of grilled chicken garnished with a Panca Moro miso sauce.
One of my favorite dishes of the night was the "Yuquitas". These (not so) little puffs of yuca flour were packed with Manchego cheese and opened up into this light, fluffy, steamy, cheesy, goodness of a bite. Can you tell they were my favorite? I just had to wipe the drool off the key board!
Another dish we tried was actually the restaurant's namesake, the Paiche fish. This Amazonian fish is enrobed in a amarillo vinaigrette and tamari and served with a sweet potato mousse.
You can't have Peruvian food without ceviche! We had a variety including yellowtail, albacore, and blue prawn. And yes, that's the shrimp head that Chef Ricardo dared me to eat.
Another stand out for me was the Wagyu Beef. This thin sliced, seared beef was served over the most scrumptious Parmesan sauce and topped with black truffle. Each bite of this dish was more decadent than the last. Truly stellar.
To see more of my amazing dinner, check out the Facebook Album here!
A special thanks to Chef Ricardo and Mixologist Deysi Alvarez for hosting me for such a memorable meal! Can't wait to come back for more!

These were perfect for a thick art piece I had purchased, which had an even thicker glass top. These clips hold this heavy piece together very well. Better outcome than I had ever hoped for! Thanks...[more]

Greg Olsen grimaced as he briefly left Sunday's NFC playoff game against the Seahawks with a shoulder injury, and the city of Charlotte gasped.
A sense of calm returned when Olsen did.
The Panthers tight end means that much to his offense, to his team's Super Bowl run, to his locker room and to his community. The more Olsen has established himself as a core player for the Panthers, the more Chicago has missed him. Trading Olsen, the Bears' first-round draft pick in 2007, rates as one of the most short-sighted decisions the organization has made in recent memory.
And as Olsen prepares for Sunday's NFC championship game, the city from which the Bears discarded him is...

The Ravens' Plan A at left guard was re-signing Pro Bowl performer Ben Grubbs, who eventually signed with the New Orleans Saints. Plan B was an aggressive bid at free agent Evan Mathis, who opted Saturday to re-sign with the Philadelphia Eagles.
What is Plan C? The Ravens, of course, aren't going to publicly announce that to the media, but don't be surprised if it includes giving second-year player Jah Reid an extended look at left guard.
Regardless of their plans for Reid, I think the Ravens will sign at least one free agent offensive lineman and add one or two more offensive linemen in the draft. But giving Reid, a third-round pick out of Central Florida last year, an opportunity to compete for the job would be a typical move by the Ravens, who always look internally first when filling needs.
Reid is 6 feet 7, 330 pounds, and primarily a right tackle. He played sparingly in his rookie season, being used as a third tight end in certain packages. His most extensive action probably came in the AFC Championship game when Michael Oher was forced out during one series with a knee injury.
It certainly would be a risky move, replacing a Pro Bowl guard with an untested, younger player who is going to be asked to play a different position. And it certainly may be a tough sell for the fans, who undoubtedly remember Ravens general manager Ozzie Newsome saying that bolstering the offensive line was one of the offseason's biggest priorities. As of now, it appears that the 2012 starting offensive line will look an awful lot like the 2011 version minus the solid Grubbs.
But the Ravens obviously have a history of making good evaluations of their own personnel, and they feel like Reid made some nice strides in practice last year. If they don't feel like there is a strong option still available on the free agent market, I could see them using the money elsewhere and giving Reid the opportunity.
Don't get me wrong, I still expect them to bring in a veteran guard. Jake Scott, Robert Gallery, Bobbie Williams, Kyle Kosier and Eric Steinbach are all solid options. However, don't be surprised at all if Reid gets every opportunity to prove that the job should be his.

The Fairfield woman who police said had sexual relations with a 15-year-old boy while working at the Congregational Church of New Canaan is now facing a second-degree sexual assault charge, according to court documents.
Morgan Frawley, 25, was already facing a charge of risk of injury to a minor, for which she was arrested by New Canaan police Oct. 25. An affidavit issued days before her arrest shows the former church youth group leader exchanged numerous sexually explicit photos and text messages with the teenage boy.
In January, she was found eligible for accelerated rehabilitation, a probationary program that, if completed, expunges the charges against first-time offenders. A hearing to decide whether she would be granted the program was scheduled for today, but Norwalk Superior Court has continued the case to March 21, after a request from her defense.
It is unclear whether she is still eligible for the program now that she's facing a sexual assault charge. The charge, second-degree sexual assault on a victim between 13 and 15 years old, is a Class B felony that carries a penalty of up to 20 years in prison.
Mark Sherman, the attorney representing the victim's family, said the new charge, which was filed Feb. 21, shows the gravity of the case.
More InformationFact box
"Obviously, this case is more serious than we initially thought," he said. "We'll be following the state investigation closely."
Frawley's attorney, Frank Bevilacqua, was unavailable for comment.
The woman had been working as a youth group leader at the church for two years when she was suspended last April. She worked there part time and was not a member of the church, according to church officials.
The suspension came after church officials were notified by the boy's parents about explicit text messages between Frawley and the teen on his cell phone. The church then reported the alleged relationship to the state Department of Children and Families. DCF contacted New Canaan police on the same day, according to the Oct. 16 affidavit.
Frawley was an eighth-grade substitute teacher at Tomlinson Middle School in Fairfield. She was let go by the school in late April, immediately after officials learned of the allegations against her, according to the affidavit.
Sherman declined to comment on whether he's considering pursuing civil actions against the church.
New Canaan's Sgt. Carol Ogrinc wrote in the affidavit that she believed "Frawley and the juvenile victim were involved in a sexual relationship and engaged in sexual intercourse." Based on the text messages, Ogrinc believes that Frawley had been at the boy's residence and had sex, according to the document. Besides sexually explicit text messages, the affidavit shows that Frawley also sent multiple photos of herself to the victim in "suggestive poses while either partially clothed or fully nude."
A protective order prohibiting contact with the teen boy was issued against the defendant on Nov. 5.

Announcing ZFS on FUSE/Linux
I'm very pleased to announce that, thanks to Google, Linux will (hopefully) have a working ZFS implementation by August 21st, 2006.
This site is where I'll keep you informed about my progress. A web site will soon be created for general information.
I'd just like to say that I'm very excited about this project. I think ZFS is a great filesystem, and I can't wait to have it working on Linux!
Of course, none of this would be possible without the work of Sun's engineers, who have done (and are still doing) a wonderful job, and of course, Google, who is sponsoring my project (and +600 other ones!).
Yay for Goooooooooooooogle!!!

Great work, will porting it to FUSE make it relatively easy to then create a full linux filesystem?
- Jun 1, 2006, 8:19:00 AM
- wizeman said...
Phase 2 of this project will be useful in porting ZFS to the linux kernel, since zdb is a useful debugging tool for ZFS filesystems/zpools.
However, phases 3 and especially 4 won't be of any use, since a kernel implementation would involve rewriting the whole code (the CDDL in which ZFS is licenced is incompatible with the GPL in which the linux kernel is licenced).
- Jun 1, 2006, 3:41:00 PM
regarding phases 3 and 4 ... I don't think your reasoning is correct. It's not the license which is the issue, it's the underlying kernel interfaces. Licensing should only be an issue if you were trying to get ZFS integrated as part of a default linux kernel. If it's "merely" available as an add-on module then there shouldn't be any licensing issues.

He's not wrong about the licensing issue. Linus has stated that he considers modules to be part of the kernel and therefor must be GPL'd before he'll consider adding them in.

Every other one before my iPhone...
Quote from: John Lee Pettimore on December 03, 2009, 12:24:31 amEvery other one before my iPhone...I see you are a big Apple fan. I am learning about all this finally. Perhaps the Iphone is next for me.
both my boys have phones and love them. only problem is coverage for some of the smart features. if you are going to buy a phone with all the wiz-bang stuff, it ought to work everywhere! at&ts coverage out my way is not so good. it's the one reason i have stuck with verizon.Annette, make sure they let you verify coverage out in your neck of the woods before you switch.
Watch the commercials by verizon about AT&T 3G coverage where they put a map up of the US and show how little AT&T covers.

I had only seen this done once before by the artist Tim Hawkinson at his solo LACMA exhibit in 2005 and it has boggled me ever since. So, I was thrilled to find out about Ryuta, who is picking up where Hawkinson left off and doing it in their own way. Whereas instead of taking personal photos of themselves to cut into, Ryuta uses popular magazines, thus adding an element of pop culture to their practice. (via)

Along with squandering a federal budget surplus, getting us mired in two "wars" and devastating the net worth of most Americans, today's revised jobs data show a net loss of 646,000 private sector jobs during the eight Bush/Cheney Republican presidential years—and only 1,466,000 private sector net jobs were created during G.H.W. Bush's four years.
That is, a net of only 820,000 private sector jobs were created over the 12 most recent years of Republican Presidents.
In the first month of Obama's Presidency another 725,000 private sector jobs were lost. A total of 3,348,000 private sector jobs were lost in Obama's first six months of trying to get a handle on the economic disaster the Republicans created.
Nonetheless, even including the jobs lost in Obama's first six months, today's Bureau of Labor Statistics data show the last 23 consecutive months of private sector job creation restored all but 549,000 of the private sector jobs that existed when Obama was sworn into office.
Obama's first three-year job record is already better—less awful—than the eight-year Republican record of President George W. Bush.
If January's strong 257,000-per-month private sector job growth were to continue, the Obama administration would show overall net private sector job growth by April. This seems unlikely but it does seem very likely there will be net private sector job growth by June and at least one million net private sector jobs created by the end of his first term.
Clearly this four-year result for the Obama team is grossly inadequate – held back by partisan Republican obstruction, among other things – but it is now almost certain that more private sector jobs will be created in Obama's first term than in the past THREE terms of Republican presidents.
If Republicans want to make this an election about the jobs record under Obama, Democrats should encourage them to bring it on.

A warm breeze travels across a grassy plain, gently stirring the flames inside mercury-glass candleholders. The flames' reflections flicker against mirrors in intricate frames inlaid with mother-of-pearl and mounted on turquoise trellis "walls." Vibrant pink roses wind through the latticework, their scent saturating the air. Rare textiles with rich patterns and palettes mingle with the colors of this lavish outdoor space.
This is interior designer Windsor Smith's unique room—a backyard retreat that can serve as an exotic spot for entertaining or change at a whim into an office, game room, or nap central. And it's not in some far-flung locale but on the property of her home in Mandeville Canyon, Los Angeles.
"This space has the comforts of a great salon—but it's not indoors. It's nestled in nature yet somewhat separate from the elements," she says.
While an outdoor salon filled with antique rugs and crystal sconces may seem capricious, it's pure Windsor Smith. The designer is known for breaking the rules and injecting traditional spaces with the unexpected. An antiques-dealer-turned-interior designer, she's had a busy couple of years. Her Windsor Smith Home collection of furniture launched in 2007, and this year she added a line of fabrics and carpets through Kravet. Then there's her day job—creating timeless-with-a-twist interiors for Hollywood's elite.
Downtime is cherished. With "walls" constructed of vibrant blue trellises and a prime location just off the great room of Windsor's home, the outdoor oasis allows her to remain close to her husband, Anthony, and two teenaged sons, Trinity and Oliver, as they lounge poolside or vie for points on the tennis courts.
"Women are absolutely riddled with guilt when we want something of our own," says Windsor. "So I created this space where I can still be next to my family when I'm stealing time for myself."
She is constantly changing the salon "set," moving items in and out. Nothing is off limits. When she brings in the inlaid 1920s Syrian game table, the competitive spirit of family members kicks in. "We take backgammon seriously in our household," she laughs.
When she's enjoying a visit with girlfriends or a lazy Sunday breakfast with the family, the room is transformed yet again. Maybe she'll decorate with a pretty sunburst convex mirror borrowed from her living room, a saffron-colored "Medici" velvet chair from her home collection, or bold pink-and-orange throw pillows for a lush lounge vibe.
There are times the trellised room becomes a haven for work. She'll lay
out fabric samples and pore over design magazines as she curls up on the sofa, her morning cup of coffee perched on a garden stool or Moroccan pedestal table.
"It's relaxing and slightly separate, but close enough," she says. "That's really the beauty of an outdoor space."
10 Steps to Your Own Paradise
Tips from Windsor Smith for creating an outdoor transitional room:
1. Stake out a flat spot in an area with indirect sunlight.
2. Create a sense of enclosure with a trellis, a canopy, or a Moroccan tent.
3. Delineate space with a cozy rug.
4. Make the area large enough for dining.
5. Use paper lanterns, ground lights, and candles for ambience.
6. Mix indoor rugs and furniture with the usual garden pieces. Seasonal slipcovers can protect indoor furniture from weather. Add pillows for sitting and lounging—interior pillows are fine, or make covers from soft, weather-resistant fabrics.
7. Provide hard surfaces for trays of food or a pitcher of mojitos.
8. Let attractive game boards double as decorative pieces. Backgammon, chess, and checkerboards work well.
9. Use colors that imply a completely separate experience. Think international, ocean getaway, or similar escapist themes.
10. Hang art or mirrors to create the atmosphere of a real room.

Timmy The ThinkGeek Monkey
A Legend in the Making...
- Get your own clone of the ThinkGeek spokesmonkey
- Timmy is wearing a stylish ThinkGeek t-shirt
- Warning: You must have bananas at home at all times
A Legend in the Making...
We don't want to go into a long story about the history of ThinkGeek's very own Timmy the Monkey; it involves far too many sub-plots, server closets, and time-space ripples. Suffice it to say that Timmy the Monkey, on this planet at least, would be catalogued as a codeslinger, a kung-foo monkey coder with more than just bad-ass programming powers and a cute face. We would be humble to say he only invented water.
Timmy the monkey is about 6 inches tall (when not seated or passed out after his latest hackathon) and is wearing a black t-shirt with his favorite website on it. Oh, you both have the same favorite website? You're going to have so much to talk about together.
Note: Timmy is not a dog toy! We don't know the chemical composition of the magical beads which fill Timmy with happiness, but it's not dog food.

University Park, Pa. -- The leading national trade organization representing food retailers and wholesalers solicited a group of MBA students from Penn State's Smeal College of Business to develop a toolkit to help its 1,500 member companies calculate their carbon footprints.
The Food Marketing Institute's "Carbon Footprint 101" educational program arose from a discussion between Jeanne von Zastrow, senior director of FMI, and second-year Smeal MBA student Matthew Holtry, who was then working as an environmental sustainability consultant for supermarket chain Giant Eagle's carbon emissions inventory project. FMI's Sustainability Task Force had identified carbon emissions as an area in which its members were seeking better information, and asked Holtry to assemble a group of Smeal MBA students to develop the project.
Holtry is president of Penn State Net Impact, an MBA student organization committed to socially and environmentally responsible business practices. He recruited fellow Net Impact members Christopher Anderson, Brian Conry, Jared Freer, Andrew Helfst, and Ryan Sheetz to research and create the carbon footprint toolkit.
The result of their months of research and development is expected to launch on the FMI Sustainability Web site soon, and Holtry will present the toolkit at FMI's second Sustainability Summit in August in San Francisco.
The toolkit will provide food retailers and wholesalers all they need to know to understand the basics of carbon and greenhouse gas issues as well as how emerging public policy may impact their regulation.
"It was very exciting to work with this group of MBA students," von Zastrow said. "Matthew was able to put together an excellent and diverse group, and the result is a very valuable tool for our industry that will help us make this world a better place while also helping add to our bottom line. We were so impressed with the professionalism, commitment, and expertise of this group that we've decided to do more of this type of project in the future."
The package delivered by Holtry's team includes a 30-page whitepaper that provides an interpretation of potential carbon emissions legislation, outlines the process for calculating emissions and setting a reduction goal, and illustrates the financial and marketing benefits of taking early action. The team also developed a 30-minute PowerPoint primer on carbon emissions.
The final piece of the toolkit is a simplified greenhouse gas emissions calculator that FMI member companies can use to get a snapshot of their emissions at the store level. The calculator, which was provided by Verisae, a leading software provider in energy management and refrigerant tracking, also helps to identify opportunities for emission reductions and compares results to industry averages by size and region.
The full toolkit will be available online at http://www.fmi.org/sustainability/.
This is just the latest sustainability project undertaken by Penn State Net Impact. In February, the group presented a plan to Penn State's Office of Physical Plant to develop a method for identifying more sustainable janitorial paper products.

More Reason to Worry — Anxiety Can Lead to Early Death
Thoughts about an early death can make a person anxious or depressed. Now, a new study has found that anxiety and depression are among the psychological disorders that seem to contribute to early deaths. Talk about a vicious cycle.
According to a British survey of 68,000 people, those who had reported at least one symptom of psychological distress were more likely than those who didn't to have died of everything from cancer to cardiovascular disease to injuries.
"Even with low levels of psychological distress — certainly much lower levels than would attract a diagnosis of anxiety or depression — these people had an increased risk of mortality from all causes," said study author Tom Russ, a clinical research fellow at the University of Edinburgh in Scotland. "The greater the level of distress, the greater the risk."
Russ was able to come to this conclusion even after controlling for weight, physical activity and smoking and drinking habits. He further theorized that psychological distress could cause physiological changes in the body, leading to this increased risk of death. So try and take it easy.

I just wanted to send you a quick note about our previous experience with The Mustard Seed:
My wife and I could not be happier with the experience we had with your staff. I feel bad and do not remember everyone's names who helped us, but we worked with Cory at our home and at the Garden Center. He was very open and laid out a plan that was exactly what we were looking for. The staff at the garden always walked us through everything we had questions with and were very happy and eager to help.
We will always speak highly of you and your staff and we look forward to using The Mustard Seed again in the future!

Hi Mark,
Thank you for the excellent work… I can't believe how your team transitioned our monuments from ugly and boring into a eye pleasing, God honoring gardens of beauty. All of this in just one week. Since the completion of this project we get compliments on a regular basis. Please thank your team for doing a great job and having an eye for detail. Please feel free to take pictures to share with your customers.

Public Safety Manager
Hello Mark, I'm sure you know that a great landscape architect makes all the difference in an excellent landscaping job – but probably you didn't know that we chose Mustard Seed because Rick Yokiel works there. He worked in the past with our original landscape architect and has a reputation for designing great natural landscapes. Now that the work is done we are thrilled that we chose him to design our property's new look. We especially appreciate the flowing routes that are created by the walkways – they make the front entry much more inviting and tie the back deck to front of the house in a graceful curve, flowing out to the grass yard or onto the front deck. The large boulders, the choice of plants, the on-site time Rick spent making sure everything was in the right place - all contributed to the stunning results. I'm sure we could have had the same amount of work done for less money elsewhere, but there is no way we would have ended up with the graceful, flowing lines and coherent, connected landscape without Rick's wonderful design. As I'm sure you know, he is a real treasure. Of course, execution is also critically important, and Eric Hagen did a masterful job of organizing the work and getting it done. He and my husband, Tom, became friends during the week and Tom came to appreciate his broad range of skills. We are considering on-going maintenance by Mustard Seed, but here we have a problem. We often travel on business, frequently for weeks at a time. We know how to get work done and how to manage bills remotely, but it seems that your business is not set up to accept our business if we happen to be out of town. Every service that works on our house and yard has a method of accepting remote payment, but apparently we have to come to your site to pay, or be able to put a check in the mail (not practical from overseas). So I hope that you will find a way to update your payment systems so we can use your services in the future, even when we are traveling. Meanwhile, I want to repeat one more time how pleased we are with Rick's and Eric's work. Sincerely, Mary PoppendieckEden Prairie

Don Carlos Andrade is a knifemaker, sculptor, chef and teacher living in California. His interest in handmade knives began in 1985 when he entered culinary school in Los Angeles. There, he saw his first knife made entirely by hand. Eventually, he began to buy and sell one-of-a-kind knives to educate himself about cutlery. Inspecting the various knives and testing them in the kitchen and in the outdoors informed him about the value of a well-made knife. He discovered what he liked about certain styles of knives and found that knives created from carbon steel often out-performed those made from stainless steel.
As he tested and collected knives, he became interested in bladesmithing and made his first knife in 2006 under his mentor, Tai Goo. Goo and Andrade continue to be fast friends and Don has made a pilgrimage to visit Tai Goo each year since they met in 2006. Don describes Tai as a veritable wealth of knowledge, and holds the work of his mentor in very high regard. Don also acknowledges the works of Wayne Goddard, David Boye, Jay Hendrickson, Christoff Derringer, Rodrigo Sfreddo and Gustavo Vilar as both inspiring to him personally and producing work of excellent quality. Don draws much of his design inspiration from his mentor, Tai, and from the traditional cutlery of the old masters of the culinary blades. He uses no templates other than on a very few designs that he reproduces in limited runs. He prefers to draw his ideas and then form each knife as an individual creation.
Don's favorite thing about making knives is the transformation of material. He's been making art for over twenty years and considers "transformation" as the consistent thematic idea over his entire body of work. He greatly enjoys forging steel -- forging the blade at the anvil and completing the finishing work by hand with filing and sanding. This process is time consuming and to do it well requires a high level of skill. He feels that by draw filing, rather than grinding, he can achieve the subtle geometric variations that a fine knife needs for both function and beauty. This is particularly true of culinary knifes, which are among Don's favorite pieces to construct. The challenge of making a quality chef knife is one he really enjoys, and the sculptor in him just can't help but carve the handles as well!
Aside from culinary knives, Don also constructs camp knives of various styles and sizes. He enjoys making integral knives. They are challenging and for the first two and a half years of his knifemaking this was his focus – integrals forged from round bar. Don makes his fixed blades for using, and finishes his knives to a degree that "encourages use and not pretentiousness." He hopes to work on some artistic collaborations in the future.
Don creates around 24 knives per year, with most knives taking 40 - 50 hours to complete, with a clay heat treatment adding a few days to the process. Don is usually working on several knives at a time, with many pieces in different phases of the process.
Don Andrade's shop is small and simple. He chooses to do almost all processes by hand so he requires very little room. He forges on a Nimba Anvil using hammers that he has made. He forges each knife to shape, removes scale with a hand stone and water, and draw files the final geometry for each blade. While draw filing, he does several sub-critical thermal stress-relieving cycles, finally sanding and heat treating his own knives. Don uses a traditional heat treatment process, one that has been done for hundreds of years. He creates a rich atmosphere in his furnace, soaks the blades at critical temperature, quenches the blade in oil, and finally tempers the blade.
Don's favorite steels are 1095 and 1080 carbon steels for chef knives and 1065 or recycled spring steels for camp knives. His favorite handle material is desert ironwood. While he uses other woods, he believes that the desert ironwood is by far the most stable and beautiful of all.
As well as bladesmithing, Don is a well known photographer, art teacher, sculptor, and musician. Most recently, he returned to school and studied humanities, philosophy, art and psychology and graduated with a degree in fine arts. His primary focus in the studio (when not making knives) is in creating bronze and stone sculpture, but he also finds time for print making and a little painting.
