Pizza upgrades simple, nutritious
Amy's cornmeal crust upgrade: Amy's Kitchen 3 Cheese Pizza with Cornmeal Crust is good on its own. The crust definitely helps it stand out from all the other cheesy pizzas. But it's even better when a smattering of mushrooms are thrown into the mix. Use the standard button mushrooms or chop up some baby portobellos. If you're feeling adventurous, find some shiitake or cressini. Slice up your favorites, place them on the pizza and bake. Don't go too crazy with the mushrooms or you'll end up with a sad, soggy mess. Amy's Kitchen also offers a roasted vegetable vegan pizza that can be dressed up with soy cheese or small dollops of vegan pesto

A few weeks ago, Betabeat wrote about an Indiegogo campaign started by Whitney Port, star of The Hills and The City. Ms. Port began the campaign to raise $50,000 so that she could show her fashion line, Whitney Eve, at New York Fashion Week Spring 2013.
But today, when we went to check up on the campaign's progress, the funding goal had mysteriously dropped by $40,000. Now, Ms. Port is only soliciting $10,000.
Betabeat has learned that Indiegogo agreed to change the fundraising goal for Ms. Port's campaign. She is an Indiegogo partner, which is why both parties agreed to lower the goal.

Tsakli performed an important role in the training of Buddhist monks and lay persons. They served the necessary function of flashcards as aids to memorization. Tibetan saddle blankets were originally woven as a protective covering for a horse and often in sets. They are a relic of a time when art and utility were one in the same.

What happened to John Floyd should have never happened.
Floyd, a former West Brunswick High School athletics director, reassumed the AD position he had years ago earlier this month. For two weeks, he dutifully fulfilled the role, replacing Marcia Heady who took another position at Shallotte Middle School.
His signed contract needed only to be approved by the board of education at its regularly scheduled meeting Aug.12. But at that meeting, the board chose not to approve the hiring recommendation.

targeted fluorescent proteins | BacMam delivery | Organelle Lights™ and Cellular Lights™
Organelle Lights™ and Cellular Lights™ targeted fluorescent proteins
what they are
Organelle Lights™ and Cellular Lights™ fluorescent protein–based reagents are targeted to subcellular compartments and organelles by signal sequences. Based on BacMam technology these versatile tools are prepackaged in baculovirus particles for highly efficient, reproducible, and noncytopathic delivery to a range of cell types, including primary and stem cells. Organelle Lights™ and Cellular Lights™ fluorescent proteins are not overtly toxic, which ensures consistent expression. The efficient transduction makes it easy to deliver multiple constructs and to modulate gene expression. Organelle Lights™ and Cellular Lights™ fluorescent proteins are readily adaptable to a number of assay formats and compatibility with automated liquid handling makes them ideal for high-content imaging applications. And now we offer a red fluorescent protein (RFP): TagRFP from Evrogen. TagRFP is a novel monomeric red fluorescent protein based on the wild-type RFP from sea anemone Entacmaea quadricolor (Nat Methods (2007) 4: 555-557). TagRFP is about 3 times brighter than mCherry protein (Nat Biotechnol (2004) 12: 1567-1572), which makes it the brightest monomeric red fluorescent protein currently available.
how they work
Golgi-RFP: This new Organelle Lights™ product is TagRFP fused to a Golgi targeting tag (a portion of human Golgi-resident enzyme N-acetylgalactosaminyltransferase-2). This is the same tag used in our popular Golgi-GFP.
Nuc-RFP: Our Organelle Lights™ Nuc-RFP comprises TagRFP fused to the SV40 nuclear localization sequence. This allows researchers to visualize the nucleus without utilizing DNA-binding dyes, which may perturb cellular function.
H2B-GFP and -RFP: Another method of localizing the nucleus is via histone labeling. With the Cellular Lights™ H2B-GFP and -RFP products researchers can localize histones in living cells and potentially follow these protein complexes during cell division.
Lysosomes-RFP: A new Organelle Lights™ target, this product is TagRFP fused to the lamp1 protein (lysosomal associated membrane protein 1). With this new product, researchers can now visualize lysosomes, important degradative organelles also involved in autolysis.
Endosomes-GFP: Another new Organelle Lights™ target, we have fused the bright and photostable Emerald GFP to Rab5a, an early endosomal marker. Endosomes-GFP will permit localization of the endosomes within the living cell, and can be fixed as well.MAP4-GFP: One of our most exciting and visually stunning new Cellular Lights™ targets, MAP4 (microtubule associate protein 4) has been fused to Emerald GFP. This product will enable visualization of the microtubules within a living cell.
Tubulin-GFP and -RFP: Complementary to the Cellular Lights™ MAP4-GFP construct is our Cellular Lights™ Tubulin-GFP (Emerald GFP protein fusion) and -RFP (Tag RFP protein fusion) fluorescent proteins. These two products are designed for live-cell imaging of microtubules.
Actin-GFP and -RFP: When added to mammalian cells, our Actin-GFP and Actin-RFP Cellular Lights™ products will produce Emerald GFP or TagRFP fused to the N terminus of beta actin.
Null (control) virus: If the potential effects of baculovirus on your cell type are a concern, our new Cellular Lights™ Null virus lacks any mammalian genetic elements. The Null virus allows you to determine any possible baculovirus-based effects.
|Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells (Cascade Biologics, Invitrogen Cell Culture, C-007-5C) were transduced with Cellular Lights™ MAP4-GFP and Lysosomes-RFP according to the established Molecular Probes® BacMam protocol. The following day Hoechst staining was performed, and cells were imaged using a 63x objective with GFP, RFP, and DAPI filters.
|Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells (Cascade Biologics, Invitrogen Cell Culture, C-007-5C) were transduced with Cellular Lights™ Tubulin-GFP according to the established Molecular Probes® BacMam protocol. The following day Hoechst staining was performed, and cells were imaged using a 63x objective with GFP and DAPI filters. Nocodazole treatment was performed (10 μM), and images obtained every 2.5 mins for 15 minutes. Nocodazole is an antineoplastic agent that interferes with the polymerization of microtubules.
what they offer
- intracellular landmarks that are well characterized, accurately targeted, safe and easy to use—no need to make your own constructs and transfection complexes
- highly efficient transduction of multiple cell types, including primary and stem cells
- easily "dial in" the right expression level by modulating the dose
- ideal tools for dynamic live cell studies; compatible with subsequent fixation immunocytochemical processing
- simple, safe, and fast application of fluorescent proteins with full rights to use
Redox Status | Glutathione Detection | Brighter Thiol Probe
ThiolTracker™ Violet (Glutathione Detection Reagent) for HCS, flow cytometry, and fluorescence microscopy
what it is
ThiolTracker™ Violet is a brighter, more robust, and easier-to-use thiol probe. Ten times brighter than the bimanes conventionally used to detect reduced glutathione, ThiolTracker™ Violet can be used in HCS microplate imaging, flow cytometry, and epifluorescence microscopy. It can be excited with UV or 405 nm laser light and has an emission maximum centered around 525 nm.
how it works
ThiolTracker™ Violet binds intracellular thiols. Because reduced glutathione represents the majority of intracellular free thiols, ThiolTracker™ Violet can be used in estimating the level of reduced glutathione and redox status of a cell. ThiolTracker™ Violet readily crosses the cell membrane, and, upon thiol binding, is transformed into a cell-impermeant reaction product. ThioTracker™ Violet can be fixed by aldehydes, is compatible with Triton® X-100 (0.5%) permeabilization, and is appropriate for multiplex imaging.
what it offers
- bright signal (10x brighter than bimanes)
- ease of use
- consistent, reproducible results
- can be multiplexed with other assays (for example cytotoxicity studies)
- useful for glutathione depletion or oxidation—reduction assays
Cell Signaling | Phosphorylation | Primary Antibodies
Phosphorylation site–specific antibodies for protein kinase C isoforms
what they are
Invitrogen offers monospecific reagents for studying the phosphorylation of protein kinase C (PKC), and new additions to this product line cover all major isoforms including Ca++-dependent (α, β, γ), Ca++-independent (δ, ε, η, θ), and atypical (ζ, ι, λ) isoforms
how they work
Phosphorylation is a common mechanism for activation and deactivation of proteins in cell signaling cascades. Phosphorylation site–specific antibodies (PSSA) that are monospecific for the phosphorylation state of a particular tyrosine, serine, or threonine residue on the target protein are critical for elucidating the signaling pathways. Invitrogen offers antibodies against major isoforms of PKC, allowing monitoring of protein expression and regulatory phosphorylation of primary activation sites.
what they offer
- validated reagents with multiple applications and species specificity
- wide range of targets and modification sites
- all phosphorylation site specificities are verified with peptide competition
|Lysates prepared from K562 cells stimulated with PMA were resolved by SDS-PAGE on a 10% polyacrylamide gel and transferred to PVDF. Membranes were either left untreated (1–4) or treated with lambda (λ) phosphatase (5), blocked with a 5% BSA-TBST buffer for one hour at room temperature, and incubated with PKCβI [pT642] antibody for two hours at room temperature in a 3% BSA-TBST buffer, following prior incubation with: no peptide (1, 5), the non-phosphopeptide corresponding to the immunogen (2), a generic phosphothreonine-containing peptide (3), or, the phosphopeptide immunogen (4). After washing, membranes were incubated with goat F(ab´)2 anti-rabbit IgG HRP conjugate (Cat. no. ALI4404) and bands were resolved. These data show that only the peptide corresponding to PKCβI [pT642] blocks the antibody signal. The data also show that phosphatase stripping eliminates the signal, verifying that the antibody is phosphospecific.
Mitochondrial Studies | Anti-OxPhos Antibodies | Isolation and Imaging
Monoclonal antibodies for the investigation of mitochondrial structure and OxPhos complexes
what they are
New antibodies, kits, and controls for the study of mitochondrial oxidative phosporylation (OxPhos), including immunocapture and immunocytochemistry kits for the isolation and imaging of OxPhos complexes and specific complex subunits.
how they work
Mitochondria play a crucial role in ATP production through oxidative phosphorylation (OxPhos). OxPhos is carried out by the electron transport machinery, which oxidizes the major products of glycolysis to yield ATP. To accomplish this task, mitochondria have dedicated protein machinery, known as the respiratory protein complexes I, II, III, IV, and V. Invitrogen offers a range of subunit-specific anti–OxPhos Complex mouse monoclonal antibodies that recognize proteins in the oxidative phosphorylation system.
what they offer
- highly specific monoclonal antibodies with broad validation
- immunocapture kits and immunocytochemistry kits for imaging
- the widest selection of OxPhos reagents available
Mitochondrial Studies | OxPhos Activity | 96-Well Microplate Assays
MitoProfile® kits for mitochrondrial protein complex analysis
what they are
Invitrogen is now offering assay kits for assaying mitochondrial protein complexes in a 96-well format. The kits can measure mitochondrial protein activity, quantity, or both.
how they work
In the 96-well microplate assay, cytochrome c oxidase is immunocaptured from a sample of cell or tissue extract (no mitochondrial isolation is necessary) by a monoclonal antibody attached to the wells of a 96-well plate. The amount of enzyme captured is determined by the reaction of a second monoclonal antibody against a different epitope in the protein complex with the signal reported by an appropriate secondary antibody, which is conjugated with alkaline phosphatase. In the case of activity microplates, the enzyme is immunocaptured by the plate-bound monoclonal antibody, then its activity measured by following the oxidation of cytochrome c.
what they offer
- sensitivity—use small sample volume to measure protein levels
- specificity—measure the correct mitochondria protein of interest
- multiplex capability—activity and quantity measurements in one well

Course Tour
Hole # 1
Par 5 509/471/453/425 yards
Hole Description
A short par 5 to start your round. Trouble lurks left and right off the tee. Avoid the two deep bunkers protecting a large and undulating green on your second shot. Pay attention to the flag placement . If the hole location is on the left side of the Green, favor the right side of the fairway on your second shot.
Hole # 2
Par 4 392/387/299/299
Hole Description
A slight Dogleg to the right, this hole starts with a smartly placed tee shot in the fairway. The Tall Grass on the left is played as an environmentally protected area. You must abandon your golf ball and play it as a lateral hazard. Your second shot is played to an elevated green that is protected by a deep bunker on the right. The bailout here is left of the green. Short and long is a hard up and down.
Hole # 3 Par 5 540/501/479/419
Hole Description
Our second par 5 is more challenging. Don't forget when you get to the top of the hill to look back and see Manhattan!! Avoid the Alley that leads up to the Mansion on your right. The fairway slopes to the left. The green is well protected on the left by a large bunker. The Green slopes from back to front with several undulations. Par is a good score on this hole.
Hole # 4
Par 4 390/364/364/317
Hole Description
A sharp dogleg right. It is a 250 yard carry to clear the bunkers down the right side. Otherwise, keep your tee shot left to avoid the trouble. The Large netting protecting the Tennis Courts is the Boundary for Out of Bounds. Bunkers on the left and right side of the green. The second shot is slightly downhill and the green runs from front to back which tends to make it play a little shorter.
Hole # 5
Par 3 170/145/135/123
Hole Description
Long and left is where the trouble looms here. If you are between clubs it is safer to go with less club. The easiest up and down is from the front of the Green. The Green is well bunkered on the left and the right. The green runs from front to back and narrows towards the back of the green.
Hole # 6
Par 4 342/307/307/274
Hole Description
This was the original 1st hole on the nine hole layout. The next five holes are all part of the original layout with some modifications. A short par four with a well bunkered and elevated green. Leave yourself with a comfortable distance for your second shot. The green is more receptive to a high trajectory shot. Long here is a difficult up and down.
Hole # 7
Par 3 158/132/118/107
Hole Description
This elevated par three always plays a little longer than the actual yardage. The Green is well bunkered in front. Chose a club that can clear the bunkers. The green runs from back to front. Left of the green is the easiest up and down.
Hole # 8
Par 5 545/487/474/450
Hole Description
A Dogleg right par 5. Do not try to cut the corner too much here. You could block yourself out for the second shot. This is a three shot hole for most players. A drive of 200-230 yards off the tee keeps you out of the Tall Grass at the end of the fairway. This area is also played as an environmentally protected area. The third shot is to an elevated green.
Hole # 9
Par 4 490/435/365/365
Hole Description
One of the most challenging holes on the course, do not try to cut the corner too much on this dogleg left. This is a tough hole to get home in two on. If you must layup avoid the bunker at the bottom of the hill on the left. This elevated green runs from right to left.
Hole # 10
Par 4 365/360/341/312
Hole Description
A fun tee shot from an elevated teeing ground. The fairway runs from left to right. Hitting the fairway off the tee here is a priority. The green is receptive to a run-up shot to the left side of the green. Favor the left side as the ball tend to move from left to right at the green.
Hole # 11
Par 3 204/184/150/122
Hole Description
A long and challenging par 3. The green is receptive to a shot running up the left side of the hole to the green. Lots of trouble here left and right. The miss here is best short of the green. A two tiered green with lots of undulation.
Hole # 12
Par 4 311/282/264/247
Hole Description
A fun par four that the big hitter can try to go for. The smart play is a tee shot that leaves you in front of the fairway bunkers with a 100 yard second shot. The green runs from right to left. Once again, short here is the best opportunity for an up and down.
Hole # 13
Par 4 425/400/329/329
Hole Description
The beginning of our "Amen Corner". Aim your tee shot over the fairway bunker on the left. When you get to the top of the hill don't forget to take in the sights! The trouble on your second shot is left. Two big bunkers and tall grass protect the left side of the green. Regardless of the pin placement, focus on the right front part of the green for your second shot. No room at all over the green.
Hole # 14
Par 3 176/147/125/125
Hole Description
Our signature hole requires a long carry over protected grounds. Be aware of the wind direction when choosing your club. Rules: If you hit your 1st ball into Yellow Hazard, take a 1 stroke penalty, you may replay your original shot. If next ball goes in, take an additional 1 stroke penalty, you must then use the drop area behind the green. You now lie 4. If you hit into Red Hazard, take 2 club lengths from the point where it crossed the hazard no nearer the hole or use drop area. Penalty 1 stroke.
Hole # 15
Par 4/5 450/421/379/379
Hole Description
Maybe the hardest hole on the course, aim your drive down the left side of the fairway. The fairway slopes from left to right. Trees on the left and water on the right makes the tee shot very demanding. If you must layup for your second shot, favor the left side once again and try to leave yourself with a 100 yard shot. If you are going for the green in two, a running shot to the left side of the green will run right onto the green.
Hole # 16
Par 3 191/162/147/147
Hole Description
A downhill tee shot, the green is accessible from the right. Avoid the bunkers on the left. The bailout is definitely right and short. The green has a big hump in the middle and runs hard from right to left.
Hole # 17
Par 5/4 490/463/451/355
Hole Description
The bunker that you can see from the tee box is the only bunker on the hole. Your tee shot should be aimed at the left corner of that bunker. The fairway slopes from right to left. Favor the right side on your second shot(Avoiding the large tree on the left side) to give you the best angle into the green that slopes hard from right to left and also back to front.
Hole # 18
Par 4 436/387/325/325
Hole Description
This finishing hole is a downhill dogleg left. The hole plays shorter with a tee shot down the left side, but the best angle to the green is from the right side of the fairway. The elevated green is well bunkered in front on the right and also over the green. If you are hitting a mid to long iron into this green, the ball should release when hitting the front of the green.

This tastes the way chicken soup was meant to; it has all the flavors, but doesn't taste heavy. Serve it with kneidlech, noodles, croutons, dumpling ,etc.. The soup freezes great for a couple of months- just make sure to freeze it without vegetables, they don't defrost well. If you like your soup with vegetables, simply add them-carrots, squash-when you heat up the frozen soup. The only difficult part of this recipe, is peeling the vegetables.
- 10-12 quart pot
2 leek
2 colorabi
3 celery stalks
3 parsley root-petrishka
2 small onions
7 carrots
6 small-med zucchini/squash
1 tomato
1 celery knob-optional
2 lb chicken bones
3 Tbsp chicken soup mix
- salt and pepper to taste
Peel and wash all vegetables. Leave onions and tomato(don't peel) whole. Cut up the rest of vegetables. For those that like carrots and squash in the soup, make sure to cut them in a pleasing size.
Place chicken bones in a wrap and boil bag and tie. Put the chicken on top of vegetables. Fill up the pot with water almost until top. Place on medium to high flame for 45-1 hour. Skim off all the foam and dirt from the top of pot.
Lower flame to low-medium and add 3 heaping Tbls of chicken soup mix and salt and pepper to taste. I start off with 1 tsp blk pepper and 2-3 Tbls salt and go from there. Cook for another 3 hours. If needed add 2 cups of water as it cooks down.
Set aside to cool. Then transfer to clean pot by pouring the soup through a strainer. Add the vegetables which your family likes-onion, carrots, squash,tomato... Add the cooked kneidlech. Discard the bones and rest of vegetables.

Originally from Minnesota, I didn't focus on nordic skiing until my junior year of high school at St. Paul Academy. I instead spent my formative years testing out a wide spread of activities, ranging from an unsuccessful soccer career to a decidedly more successful running one.
After winning the Minnesota State Nordic Skiing title my junior year, I went on to qualify for the U.S. World Junior Team my senior year and also place second by the slimmest of margins my senior year at the Minnesota State meet against now Olympian and U.S. Ski Team member Jessie Diggins.
I then made the move east to Dartmouth College, where I majored in Government with a focus on International Relations and also raced my way to 5 NCAA Division I All-American titles and a spot as the captain of the Dartmouth team senior year.
Upon graduating in June 2014, I accepted a spot on the Stratton Mountain School T2 team alongside many Olympians, U.S. Ski Team members, and other NCAA All-Americans. In my first year of professional ski racing, I qualified for U23 World Championships and competed in Europa Cups consistently leading the American women in sprint events. I continues to be a part of the SMS T2 team with sights on representing the USA in the 2018 Olympics.

SOUTHWEST ASIA -- Pounds of lettuce used every day: 1,600. Pounds of steak cooked on Wednesdays: 1,400. Pounds of eggs cracked open every month: 240,000.
Master Sgt. Joe Ennen's role on base: priceless.
As food service flight chief, Ennen is responsible for making sure nobody leaves the base's dining facilities hungry. That means ensuring the 1,600 pounds of lettuce stay crisp throughout the day, the 1,400 pounds of steak are cooked to the proper temperature, the 240,000 pounds of eggs arrive fresh and staying on top of the seemingly endless list of tasks required to serve several thousand people several times a day. It also means providing airmen with healthier food choices--a request that has become more common since the Air Force enacted its Fit to Fight program a few years ago.
"Our troops are requesting healthier food items and we like to provide those choices for them," says Mary Balch, chief dietitian for the Air Force Services Agency.
She credits the trend in healthy eating to nutritional education that begins in primary school and a renewed interest in overall health and fitness among Air Force members. Some of the recent changes include posting calories, fat content and carbohydrates for most of the food selections at the dining facility and offering at least one healthy course on the main food lines. Additionally, the dining facilities regularly offer skinless turkey and chicken cuts opposite selections such as turkey a la king or chicken pot pie.
Sergeant Ennen says another popular feature is the specialty bar that allows people to build their own meals, such as tacos, pitas or Chinese plates.
"Many selections on the specialty bars are good for people who are watching their waist line," he says.
However, temptations are still out there. Staff Sgt. Shameka Gant purposely has been avoiding the cookies. Instead, she dines on veal, potatoes, mix vegetables, a small salad and iced tea. As someone who likes to eat right, Gant says she appreciates the selection of healthy entrees.
"If you want to eat right, you can do it here," says Gant, the information manager for the 379th Air Expeditionary Wing. "But it's up to the individual to make those choices and have the will power not to eat junk food."
Menu selections are examined and approved by the Headquarters Services Agency in San Antonio, using the Armed Forces Recipe Service (AFRS). The AFRS considers nutritional value, among other things, in determining what can be served.
Ennen hopes to have labels soon displaying calories, fat content and carbohydrates for food at the other main dining facilities, so people can make informed choices about their meals. Good health and quality of life are top priorities, Ennen says.
"I think all of us here that work in the dining facilities collectively are doing a pretty good job at keeping our customers happy," he says.

The human mind is like a sponge, particularly when we are young. It is predisposed to soak up knowledge and master skills.
We have learned a lot about different learning styles, and we understand much more about how to engage young people in learning in the last few decades, but its hard to execute in large schools, where teachers may be dealing with as many as 150 students a day.
Ive gotten angry emails from teachers who perceive my great appreciation for what Animas High School, a public charter school, is accomplishing with its students through project-based learning, as a slam against teachers and schools in the various districts. Having taught briefly at Durango High School, I have the greatest respect for what happens every day in our schools.
But I know firsthand how impossible it is to give every student the attention he or she needs and deserves. Or how much work it is to create lessons that challenge students who are racing ahead of the class while bringing along others who still need to learn the lesson. And how to take a textbook, which more often than not is pretty boring, and try to find a way to inspire students not only to learn the information, but to love doing it.
What is happening at AHS illustrates how we, as a society, can create different methods of teaching that allow students to find the way that works for them, to create people who are not only lifelong learners a critical ability in our rapidly changing world but passionate, curious, committed lifelong learners. Its definitely an instance where smaller is better. Im curious to see if the Small Learning Communities at Durango High School will achieve the same kinds of results.
On Wednesday, AHS held its annual Friendraiser, a combination exhibition of students work and a chance to raise money for the operating expenses of the school. The big challenge a charter school faces is paying rent for its facilities, while school districts own their buildings and pay for improvements via bond issues.
So charter schools either take it from their per pupil revenue, meaning fewer dollars to put in the classroom, not an option for a rigorous college preparatory school, or raise the money, about $125,000 a year for AHS. The evening raised almost half of that, $61,000 in donations and pledges, thanks in large part to three generous donors who gave a $20,000 matching grant.
Enough about the business, lets get to the inspirational part of the story.
I lucked out and really had a chance to have a conversation with Lori Fisher, the 10th-grade humanities teacher. The sophomores are split into two groups of 30 students each, and she gets each group for two hours a day. That concentrated time alone makes a difference, but Fisher has learned a lot about working with students in this different kind of educational experience.
I have to give them time, because sometimes some of their best work happens when it looks like theyre doing nothing, she said. I have to have faith in the process.
The students spend quite a bit of time on poetry, studying everything from sonnets to beat poetry, before writing their own. Last year, Lacey Meeks video poem won a national award, and Fishers students have produced two poetry books, Speak Truth to Power and Weapons of the Wise, which are available on www.lulu.com. The big difference is that its not a race to cram in the material, and students spend three weeks just writing and revising their poems.
Revising and editing are critical for good writing, and incredibly time-consuming for teachers.
Every year, theres a poem that makes me cry, Fisher said, and every year, theres a project that makes my jaw drop. And theres a power in the words for teenagers, who want to express things so badly, a power that can be so illuminating.
I talked science project with Aiyana Anderson, 17, the daughter of Mitch Anderson and Cindy Pitz. She worked with Tara Murphy and Marlene Jensen in conjunction with their chemistry class and in collaboration with the Mountain Studies Institute to investigate different amounts of biochar in mine tailings. Biochar is a form of charcoal and is very porous, holding water and taking metal out of solution, so it helps plants take root in the otherwise inhospitable tailings and clean the water running off. Some of the results were counterintuitive you would think the more biochar the better, but as the song says, It aint necessarily so.
Emily Wieser, 15, the daughter of Ross Wieser and Sharon Scott, looked at ways of evaluating whether nature can take care of its own restoration after a megafire, the kind weve been seeing with increasing frequency in the West during the last decade, or whether it should be reseeded with native plants in the various biospheres and grass to keep the seed in and minimize erosion.
Andy Lloyd, 15, the son of Leo and Susie Lloyd, brought his Rube Goldberg machine project from a year ago. A Rube Goldberg machine uses a complicated process to do a simple task.
Andy and his friend Gordon Gianniny, the son of Fort Lewis College professors Gary Gianniny and Cynthia Dott, decided to make waffles, and it took them 26 steps, running into challenges such as having the batter holder pour long enough to fill the waffle iron and finding a way to slowly lower the irons lid so it didnt splash batter all over the kitchen. The point, Andy said, is that he did the project a year ago and still remembers the lessons he learned.
Lyle Bryson, 15, the son of Phil and Lucy Bryson, and Corinne Truax, 13, the daughter of Bill and Maureen Truax, both brought their mask projects the first task of incoming freshmen that takes them on a journey of self-discovery. Both learned to be truer to their own voices and resist peer pressure.
Oh, and did I mention Shannon Etz, 16, the daughter of Ron and Linda Etz, who turned her geometry concept of interlocking two-dimensional items together to create a three-dimensional object into a cool modernistic bedside table? Or the cookbook her biology class created for people undergoing cancer treatment using ingredients with angiogenic properties to limit cancer cell growth?
Called A Bite to Fight, its also for sale on lulu.com, and proceeds will go to help Teddy Rodd and his family as Teddy goes into his second round of fighting cancer.
I talked to more students, all of whom blew me away, but my brainpower and my space are both hitting their limits.

Marble Backsplash in Gleaming Kitchen
The kitchen has a casual set-up with open shelving above the Viking range. The marble backsplash and countertops are easy on the eye.
Visit Original Photo
Fire Pit Area Overlooking the Mountains
A stone fire pit area provides a much-needed spot to warm up from the chilly temps and snow-filled days. Wooden adirondack chairs surround the area, making it ideal for entertaining or relaxing while taking in the views of the colorful mountains beyond.
Show-Stopping Stone Fireplace in Great Room
A massive, show-stopping fireplace with chiseled-stone hearth and mantel is quite an impressive sight in the home's great room. Modern furniture and accents create a contemporary feel in the stone-filled room while a gray patterned area rug expands across the space.
Game Room Kitchen Area With Focal Accent Wall
Three long, wooden floating shelves line the kitchen area of the game room and are gorgeously curated with contemporary design pieces that are illuminated with under-shelf lighting. Below, walnut cabinetry provides plenty of storage space for snacks and board games.
Traditional Living Room With Pops of Blue
This living room boasts a timeless style with crisp, white walls that are accented by different hues of blue seen in the furnishings. Not only is this space traditional, it is soothing and evokes a sense of content.
Warm Guest Room With Canopy Bed
A rich-hued canopy bed backs up to a reclaimed-wood accent wall in this cozy guest bedroom. Black side tables, glass bedside lamps and plush bedding make this space fit for total relaxation.
Rustic Entryway With Modern Chandelier
The warm, rustic exterior is carried into the interior of the home thanks to reclaimed-wood walls and rich decorative accents, like the wooden front door and luxe plank flooring. A metal-mesh, custom chandelier brings an inviting modern touch to the entry.
Expansive Windows in Hallway
Floor-to-ceiling windows line the home's hallway, providing panoramic views of the nearby aspen forest. Light oak flooring brightens up the otherwise dark-accented space.
Rustic Accessories Bring Modern Flair
At the rear of the game room, a small kitchen and dining area serve as a gathering spot to enjoy snacks and drinks. Floor lamps made of thick rope steal the show while also bringing a fun, unique design to the space.
Rustic Contemporary Game Room
The home's game room gets the same rustic-contemporary feel as the rest of the house. Reclaimed wood lines the walls with wide plank flooring below, while industrial light fixtures and sleek furniture add in the modern element of design. A television and seating area create the ideal place to watch the big game with friends or to unwind with a movie.
Beach House Balcony Offers Panoramic Views of Sand Dunes, Atlantic Ocean
A public beach access walkway creates additional space between this New Hampshire beach house and the neighboring one and opens up more panoramic views from the two upper levels of the home. Glass safety walls were chosen for the balcony, limiting the interruption of the views of the sand dunes and Atlantic Ocean.
Deck Sitting Area Features Blue Cushions and Pillows Inspired by the Sea
This New Hampshire beach house's color palette of blue, indigo and white is thoughtfully carried outdoors to the deck seating area, where the inspiration of the palette becomes fully evident in views of the nearby Atlantic Ocean.
Entry Mudroom Offers Spot to Shed and Store Sandy Shoes
A bench by the door in the entry mudroom of this New Hampshire beach house provides a spot to take off sandy shoes, and individual hampers beneath it offer a place to stash flip flops or beach towels. The bold blue wall introduces the color palette that unites each room of the house.
Grand Mountainside Retreat
The rear of the home is just as inviting as the front with its reclaimed wood, large open windows and firepit area. Three natural stone chimneys add dimension while architectural details bring visual interest to the exterior.
Guest Bathroom Features Concrete Countertop and Trough Sink
A concrete trough sink adds a high-end touch to this guest bathroom and is balanced by lower-end choices such as soft-sided baskets that work as storage for linens and other bathroom essentials. Blue accents are in keeping with the color palette used throughout the New Hampshire beach house and echo the colors of the Atlantic Ocean outside.
Contemporary Rustic Mountain Home
A warm and inviting entrance inspired by the surrounding aspen forest greets its occupants and guests upon arrival. Reclaimed wood and organic rock cover the exterior of the home, channeling the neighboring mountains.
Bunk Room Provides Space for Children and Visitors Alike
The owners of this New Hampshire beach house have two teenagers and two children who are young adults. With the intention that this newly reconstructed home would be their forever home, they wanted space that would easily accommodate the two younger children in the short term and any visitors now and in the future. This bunk room helps accomplish that, taking advantage of a smaller space with space for four to sleep and stow their belongings.
White Transitional Kitchen With Globe Pendant Lights
An otherwise white transitional kitchen features eye-catching color thanks to its blue-gray island and matching range hood. A herringbone-patterned tile backsplash adds texture to the kitchen design.
Living and Kitchen In Coastal Contemporary Home
White, bright and natural light and the words that come to mind when looking at this kitchen and living space. Pops of blue and yellow shine against the white walls and ceilings. The exposed wood beam adds architectural interest.


text: Beating the Odds to Help a Child See Peters' Anomaly is a congenital disease that results in bilateral opacity of the corneas. Cataracts and glaucoma can also be present, resulting in impaired vision. Four years ago, on the small Caribbean island of Barbados, Nathan Lewis was born with the disease. His vision was near 20/2000 in both eyes; he could only see light. Nathan's lack of vision affected his development and he had to use a walker to move around. Desperate to find help, his family first visited the Mass. Eye and Ear about a year and a half ago for medical treatment. Unfortunately, corneal transplants often fail with this disease, and the first attempts to correct Nathan's vision in the left eye were less than successful. But his devoted parents, ever holding out hope that Mass. Eye and Ear doctors could help Nathan, urged another attempt at giving him sight. His father left his job to travel to Boston so that Nathan could receive medical treatment. In December, with the support of the hospital's International Office and Social Work Department, along with financial assistance from the Ray Tye Medical Aid Foundation, Dr. Shizuo Mukai placed a scleral buckle in Nathan's right eye in September 2007 to reduce his risk of a retinal detachment. In subsequent surgeries, Dr. Kathryn Colby removed the cataract from this eye (link to cornea service), surgically implanted a Boston keratoprosthesis (Kpro), and replaced the lens in the eye. After the operation, Nathan began to walk on his own for the first time. The hospital's Optical Shop donated eyeglasses to Nathan, whose vision is now 20/89. After several months in Boston, his mother and father returned to Barbados with Nathan, who will now be able to see his home for the first time, thanks to the generosity of Ray Tye and the work of a team of dedicated professionals at Mass. Eye and Ear. "It is very difficult to restore vision in children with corneal scarring using traditional corneal transplantation techniques," Dr. Colby said. "The Boston KPro offers hope for rapid visual recovery in these patients. Our entire team is thrilled with Nathan's progress. This is truly a major advance in the care of children with corneal diseases such as Peters' Anomaly." Contact Us Today! 617-523-7900

Shared memory as an MPI transport
MPI is a great transport-agnostic inter-process communication (IPC) mechanism. Regardless of where the peer process is that you're trying to communicate with, MPI shuttles messages back and forth with it.
Most people think of MPI as communicating across a traditional network: Ethernet, InfiniBand, …etc. But let's not forget that MPI is also used between processes on the same server.
A loopback network interface could be used to communicate between them; this would present a nice abstraction to the MPI implementation — all peer processes are connected via the same networking interface (TCP sockets, OpenFabrics verbs, …etc.).
But network loopback interfaces are typically not optimized for communicating between processes on the same server (a.k.a. "loopback" communication). For example, short message latency between MPI processes — a not-unreasonable metric to measure an MPI implementation's efficiency — may be higher than it could be with a different transport layer.
Shared memory is a fast, efficient mechanism that can be used for IPC between processes on the same server. Let's examine the rationale for using shared memory and how it is typically used as a message transport layer.
Using shared memory can be lighter-weight than traditional network driver loopback mechanisms for multiple reasons:
- Lower-layer network stacks are typically not optimized for on-server loopback communications. Such network stacks are usually tuned for off-server communication. For example, OpenFabrics-based devices can utilize operating system (OS) bypass techniques to communicate with remote peers.
- When using on-server loopbacks, the OS must be involved since process boundaries are crossed. Hence, benefits such as OS-bypass are lost, and the whole mechanism slows down. See the network loopback transport diagram (right); notice how traffic must traverse through the OS to get to the peer process.
- Shared memory usually only requires direct OS involvement during the setup phase. Once shared memory is setup, it effectively becomes an OS-bypass mechanism — processes simply copy to and from the shared region. See the shared memory transport diagram; notice that no OS traversals are necessary.
- When utilizing a network stack, additional layers of wire-level protocol may be added and then stripped that simply aren't necessary when communicating between two pre-established MPI processes. For example, using a TCP loopback interface, the sending side may add TCP, IP, and L2 protocol information to the message which the receiver must strip off. With shared memory, MPI completely controls exactly what protocol bytes are transferred, and can avoid that unnecessary overhead.
All this boils down to the fact that byte transfers through shared memory will likely be faster through shared memory than through a lower-layer network stack loopback mechanism — especially for short messages. The effective performance difference for large messages may be a wash.
Of course, these are generalities — there are cases where shared memory transports do require dipping into the OS. So even though shared memory as a transport is usually faster than a network loopback, perhaps the biggest reason to use shared memory is simply to avoid using OS network resources.
Specifically: using shared memory as a transport effectively frees up the network OS driver resources, the NIC processor(s), and the paths between them (e.g., the PCI bus). Remember that with increasing core counts inside servers, effects such as congestion and resource contention inside the server become a very big deal. Avoiding these kinds of hotspots is a Good Thing.
Ok, great. So how do MPI implementations typically use shared memory as a transport?
We'll look at that in my next blog entry.

One of the drinks included in "Food & Wine Cocktails 2008" is Martin Cate's version of the classic Trader Vic drink the Fog Cutter
Taking the opportunity of a friend's band (The awesome Project Pimento!) playing at Forbidden Island, I stopped by to try the drink in question.
Le Fog Cutter. Tasty! I'd not tried one before. It was fruitier than I expected, with a good amount of the drink's character coming from the Orgeat. I don't have the book handy, but it has always struck me as an unlikely combination of ingredients, especially for a Tiki Drink. Most recipes include: Brandy, Gin, Rum, Sherry, Orgeat Syrup, and Orange Juice. Sometimes lemon. Somehow it all works!
I am such a bartender stalker! Anyway, Martin went on to explain how interesting it is to track the sweetness and different character of the Fog Cutter through the seasons. They're on late season Navel oranges right now, giving the drink a sweeter character. He said pretty soon they'd be switching to Valencias, which would be quite tart in the early part of the season and then mellow as the summer went on.
Martin even brought in his old FGCUTTR license plate for photographic documentation.
*Humuhumu took these pictures.

Family Member Genetic Testing and Me
If someone in my family has genetic testing and is âat high riskâ for colon cancer do I really need testing as well?
Because of the way hereditary cancer susceptibility is usually inherited, each sibling and child of a person with hereditary colon cancer susceptibility has a 50% chance to inherit the susceptibility. The distance of the genetic relationship between you and the family member who had testing will determine your chance to have also inherited a high risk for colon cancer. Genetic testing will be useful in determining whether you have inherited the genetic marker (also known as a âmutationâ) and therefore are also at high risk to develop cancer, or whether you did not inherit the marker and are at approximately population risk for cancer. This will also determine whether you need to be screened with frequent colonoscopies and possibly upper endoscopies, or whether you can use population screening guidelines.

A couple of hard-edged veteran cops are driving down a desolate Louisiana road after investigating a grisly crime scene in HBO's new Sunday-night drama, "True Detective."
They have been partners for three months but have spoken little about their personal lives.
"Ask you something?" the older detective (Woody Harrelson) says. "You a Christian, yeah?"
"No," his partner (Matthew McConaughey) replies, looking out the passenger-side window at the barren landscape.
After a pause and another question, the older man circles back to religion. "So, if you're not a Christian, what do you believe?"
"I believe people shouldn't talk about this [expletive] at work," his partner says.
When the senior detective takes offense, his laconic partner decides to reveal a little about himself.
"Look, I consider myself a realist, all right? But in philosophical terms, I'm what's called a pessimist."
By the time the younger man starts describing Earth as a "giant gutter in space" and man as a "tragic misstep in evolution," his agitated partner's had enough of this sharing.
"I wouldn't go around spoutin' that stuff if I were you. People around here don't think that way. I don't think that way … I got an idea: Let's make the car a place of silent reflection from now on, OK?"
I haven't enjoyed that kind of a comically dark conversation between two TV cops since Jimmy McNulty (Dominic West) and Bunk Moreland (Wendell Pierce) on HBO's "The Wire." No wait, make that Meldrick Lewis (Clark Johnson) and Steve Crosetti (Jon Polito) or Frank Pembleton (Andre Braugher) and Tim Bayliss (Kyle Secor) on NBC's "Homicide: Life on the Street."
"True Detective," which premieres at 9 p.m. Sunday, is filled with that kind of interplay between two of the best actors you will ever see working in series television. See them while you can the next eight weeks as two detectives involved in a murder investigation that stretches across 17 years — yes, 17 years. It opens with the corpse of a woman killed in a ritualistic, quasi-religious manner.
HBO describes the series as an anthology that could have different actors, different crimes, different writers and directors in different seasons if it continues. All the premium channel is guaranteeing is the eight episodes scheduled to air Sundays at 9 the next two months. All eight episodes are written and executive-produced by novelist Nic Pizzolatto. In an interview with nola.com., he listed TV writer David Milch ("Deadwood") and playwrights Harold Pinter and David Mamet as influences.
But I was thinking mostly about David Simon as I watched the first four episodes. And the more I watched, the more I thought about how deeply Simon's vision, sensibility and style have affected the way crime stories are told at the high end of American and British TV these days.
And that's not the product of some strange, insular, hometown Baltimore thinking either.
"The closest things I've seen to 'True Detective' on TV are 'Homicide: Life on the Street' and 'The Wire,' which I intend as the highest kind of praise," David Bianculli said in a preview of the series for NPR's "Fresh Air."
As a TV series, "Homicide" is certainly more a product of executive producers Barry Levinson and Tom Fontana than it is Simon — something the former Sun reporter himself has always said. And Levinson has been doing two-guys-talking-wise-and-funny forever — and better than just about anyone else.
But NBC's "Homicide" was based on Simon's 1991 nonfiction book, "Homicide: A Year on the Killing Streets," and after leaving The Sun in 1995, the veteran police reporter signed onto the Baltimore-based TV production as a writer and producer. So there is a strong connection, with Simon both being shaped as a TV writer-producer by the culture of that production and helping shape the series.
This is in no way meant to diminish "True Detective." It is filled with loads of wholly original material. But as I watched, I kept thinking how much these two Louisiana detectives owe to the Baltimore archetypes. I also came to believe that the freedom Pizzolatto, Harrelson and McConaughey have to go deep in exploring the dark side of American life would not have been possible without the groundbreaking work done in Baltimore on "Homicide" and especially "The Wire."
I remember how NBC wanted to move "Homicide" to Los Angeles, and not just to control production costs. The thought was that it would be a more pleasant-looking show with all that sunlight. But Fontana and Levinson understood that the grit of Baltimore was the DNA of that show, and to move it was to lose that essence.
And it now seems to me like almost everyone making a police and/or urban drama wants it to feel as much like "The Wire" as possible.
That desire is perhaps most obviously suggested by the presence of actors from "The Wire" in such series. Remember Baltimore's James Ransone, Ziggy Sobotka from "The Wire," in AMC's dark Detroit drama, "Low Winter Sun," last year?
"True Detective" has two alums from "The Wire": Baltimore's Clarke Peters (Lester Freamon) as a rural minister and Michael Potts (Brother Mouzone) as a Louisiana detective interrogating the McConaughey and Harrelson characters, Detectives Rust Cohle and Martin Hart, respectively. He's quizzing them as part of a 2012 investigation into a crime they first encountered in 1995.
By the way, if you are queasy about TV murder, you should know the camera spends a lot a time in the first few minutes of "True Detective" on that original, gruesome crime scene. It's a tableau that speaks straight to the unconscious. I believe the time the camera spends on the image is absolutely warranted artistically, but don't say you weren't warned if you wind up being rattled by it.
Dramatically, it doesn't matter in the end how much the characters of Hart and Cohle might be derivative, because McConaughey and Harrelson are so original in their performances — especially McConaughey, who seems to want to take Cohle as far beyond our expectations of TV cops as one can get.
"I got a bad taste in my mouth out here," Cohle says as the two cops continue down that rural road. "Aluminum, ash, it's like you can smell the psychosphere."
McNulty and Bunk talked about some pretty dark stuff some nights in Baltimore. But never the smell of the psychosphere, to the best of my recollection.

Golden Slipper Cocktail
1/2 Liqueur Glass Yellow Chartreuse. (1 oz Yellow Chartreuse)
The Yolk of 1 Fresh Egg.
1/2 Liqueur Glass Eau de Vie de Danzig. (1 oz Danzig Goldwasser)
Shake well and strain into cocktail glass.
I guess an interesting point, if yer a cocktail geek, about the Golden Slipper, is that Robert Vermeire places it in with his Pousse Cafe drinks. But, but by the 1930s, both Craddock and Duffy are saying it is a shaken drink.
Being an old-school kind of guy, I figured pousse cafe. Plus, if you're shaking the thing, it sort of negates the point of using the gold wasser.
Golden Slipper Cocktail, Old School
1/2 Liqueur Glass Yellow Chartreuse. (1 oz Yellow Chartreuse)
The Yolk of 1 Fresh Egg.
1/2 Liqueur Glass Eau de Vie de Danzig. (1 oz Danzig Goldwasser)
Pour Yellow Chartreuse into a sherry glass. Gently drop in whole egg yolk. Pouring over the back of a spoon, slowly add Danzig Goldwasser, so the two liquids do not mix.
It doesn't seem like there is a huge visual difference between yellow Chartreuse and Danzig Goldwasser, but the flavors are fairly distinct. The Gold Wasser is not as sweet with more of a gin-like edge than the chartreuse.
On the "golden slipper" front, "The Golden Slipper" appears to be a folk tale of Asian origin. The best, and spookiest, google I found, was this vietnamese version:
A Cinderella Tale from Vietnam
Wow, it's got ghosts, skeletons, murder, cruelty, etc. Anyway, yeah, that's Cinderella, all right. Amazing the whitewashed stuff we Anglos get stuck with.
Also, "Golden Slipper" was the name of a charity formed by a group of Jewish Masons in 1922.
Perhaps they enjoyed the odd cocktail?
Update regarding Goldwasser, I received a question, "but is the dantzig sweet? i thought it was just russian eau de vie that had gold flake in it…"
Everything I've read suggests that Eau-de-Vie de Danzig and Goldwasser are synonymous. The one I used, "Der Lachs Original Danziger Goldwasser," is an 80 proof herbal/spice liqueur. It didn't seem quite as sweet as Yellow Chartreuse, but I didn't try them side by side, just together in the drink.
Nice article here:
Gdansk Goldwasser: Alchemic Elixir
Goldwasser liqueur (literally 'gold water' in German), has been a popular Gdansk tradition since 1598. And though other brands and distilleries have tried to copy it, Goldwasser continues to be inextricably linked to Gdansk. A strong (40%) root and herbal liqueur, Goldwasser's famous feature is the small flecks of 22 karat gold flake that float in the beverage. Though the posh prestige of the alcohol has historically made it a favorite drink of such darlings as Russia's Catherine the Great, the rather diminutive gold flakes suspended in Goldwasser fail to make its price inordinate or its health effects negligible.
Hope that helps!
This post is one in a series documenting my ongoing effort to make all of the cocktails in the Savoy Cocktail Book, starting at the first, Abbey, and ending at the last, Zed.

LONDON -- Troy Davis may be dead, but his execution Thursday in the American state of Georgia has made him the poster boy for the global movement to end the death penalty.
World figures, including Pope Benedict XVI and former U.S. President Jimmy Carter, human groups and commentators urged the execution to be halted -- but to no avail. On Wednesday Davis was put to death by lethal injection for the 1989 killing of off-duty police officer Mark MacPhail despite doubts being raised over the conviction.
The execution sparked angry reactions and protests in European capitals -- as well as outrage on social media. "We strongly deplore that the numerous appeals for clemency were not heeded," the French foreign ministry said.
"There are still serious doubts about his guilt," said Germany's junior minister for human rights Markus Loening. "An execution is irreversible -- a judicial error can never be repaired."
The European Union expressed "deep regret" over the execution and repeated its call for a universal moratorium on capital punishment.
EU foreign policy chief Catherine Ashton said the bloc had learnt "with deep regret that Mr Troy Davis was executed," her spokeswoman Maja Kocijancic told Agence-France Presse.
'"The EU opposes the use of capital punishment in all circumstances and calls for a universal moratorium," she said.
"The abolition of that penalty is essential to protect human dignity."
Amnesty International condemned the execution in a statement. "The U.S. justice system was shaken to its core as Georgia executed a person who may well be innocent. Killing a man under this enormous cloud of doubt is horrific and amounts to a catastrophic failure of the justice system," Amnesty said.
In Britain's Guardian newspaper, Ed Jackson, reporting from Jackson, Georgia, before the execution took place, gave 10 reasons why he believed the death sentence for "a man who is very possibly innocent" should be commuted.
Most of his argument concerned doubts about the conviction -- seven of the nine key witnesses to the murder of MacPhail later recanted their evidence -- but his final reason concerned the manner in which Davis was put to death.
"Even if you set aside the issue of Davis's innocence or guilt, the manner of his execution tonight is cruel and unnatural," Jackson wrote. "If the execution goes ahead as expected, it would be the fourth scheduled execution date for this prisoner. In 2008 he was given a stay just 90 minutes before he was set to die. Experts in death row say such multiple experiences with imminent death is tantamount to torture."
In the right-of-center Daily Telegraph, Tom Chivers said the death penalty was "barbaric" and far more likely to be used against black people than white. But the main thrust of his argument was that there were serious doubts over the conviction.
"If you are pro-death penalty, you should be shouting twice as loud as the rest of us about the imminent murder of Troy Davis," Chivers wrote. "Otherwise, you can't claim to be supporting a stark but necessary act of justice. You're just a fan of killing people in general. There are words for people like that. None of them are nice."
On social media, many users predicted the execution would encourage a new civil rights movement to spring up. American novelist Hari Kunzru commented that on the issue of capital punishment the U.S. was isolated from much of the rest of the world "So I wake up to hear they executed Troy Davis. Wonder if most Americans realize how far out of step they are with international norms."
And entertainer Vincent Tucker remarked that campaigners should continue their campaign despite Davis's death. "It's one thing to fight for Troy Davis when he was alive but the key question now is will you STILL fight for his cause after his death?"

"every 3 minutes a woman is beaten/every five minutes a woman is raped/every ten minutes a little girl is molested" –ntozake shange (with no immediate cause)
Ntozake shange's poem, with no immediate cause, begins with statistics that push us into awareness about the perpetual nature of violence against women in our communities. And while I know, from personal witnessing and experiencing (and knowing somebody who knows somebody who knows somebody who has been beaten/raped/molested) how far reaching these pathologies are, it was not until this past week that I became fully conscious and aware of the responsibility that comes with awareness. And the power that comes with experience.
At 18 my naïveté led to particular vulnerabilities, specifically those associated with men and lies and (so called) love. I found myself somehow infatuated with a boy who was slowly murdering my self esteem and with it my ability to walk away from him. He played on my insecurities and isolated me from my family and friends. He used the same sweet voice that coaxed me into infatuation to berate and threaten me. And I held on to his anger like a secret, knowing that any confiding I did would result in me having to defend him, in order to defend myself, against everyone who didn't understand why he did the things he did and why I stayed.
Thankfully (and undoubtedly as a result of my mama's prayers), I grew out of wanting/needing him and escaped the situation before physical harm met the emotional damage he had already done.
Five days ago I found myself staring into the eyes of two beautiful young women (in their early twenties) who are survivors of physically violent romantic relationships. When I said "I didn't know," they looked at me in a way that made me feel out of touch. And despite their confusion at my surprise, if not for their confessions turned testimonies, I would have never known. And it occurred to me (as if for the first time) that women who have or are currently enduring abuse don't always look like victims.
They may be well dressed. Well spoken. Precocious. Charming. Elegant. Intelligent. Strongblackwomen. Handling their business. Raising children (alone). Going to school. Taking care of themselves. Taking care of you (encouraging to others). Activists. Advocates.
I remember being all those things in the middle of my surviving…but I was not self-loving at the time. And that, it feels, is what caused me to finally walk away from a man who tried to murder me with words. Loving myself…finally.
When I introduce Shange's poem (with no immediate cause) in class, it is oftentimes alongside "a nite with beau willie brown" (See for colored girls who have considered suicide when the rainbow is enough) and we discuss how women are vulnerable, even in relationships, to violence. We also talk about how being aware does not have to mean being scared. Yet, as I sat at the table with the beautiful young women I was scared. For them. For myself. For the nameless faces of other women being abused (whether physically, emotionally, psychologically, etc.) in the name of love. For the sake of love. And I wished for a way to teach them what only experience and time had taught me—that the often repeated phrase is utterly true…love does NOT hurt. And we have to learn to stop loving men more than we love ourselves.
Reflecting on shange's poem and remembering stories and moments that perhaps could have served as signs and calls for help, I feel compelled to listen harder and look longer at the young women in my life. And if I see something (wrong)—I will say something! And if I hear something (alarming)—I will do something! There may be something in the manner with which she speaks, something in the way that she carries herself in the world, that serves as a sign or a notice that something is wrong. I want to be newly aware.
Pearl Cleage says that "the facts indicate that we are under siege, incredibly vulnerable, totally unprepared and too busy denying the truth to collectively figure out what to do about it." In Mad at Miles she echoes Shange's sentiment and offers warning signals as a way of anticipating violence in order to avoid it if at all possible. I list here five of the "early warning signals" she shares:
- shouting, hollering, excessive cursing, name calling, sarcasm;
- finger pointing or fist waving, especially in and around your face;
- arm or wrist grabbing or twisting.
- throwing or breaking things;
- threatening to do violent things to you
Awareness brings with it responsibility. To ourselves (in our relationships) and to others (in theirs). And while these situations remain hidden beneath long sleeves and dark shades, we have to bring them to the forefront.

3-D printing adds new level of learning at KTC
Thursday, February 28, 2013 2:00 AM
Pittsburg, KS
In his 2013 State of the Union address, President Obama said 3-D printing "has the potential to revolutionize the way we make almost everything."
That statement caught the attention of faculty members within Pittsburg State University's College of Technology, where 3-D printing is becoming an integral part of the students' educational experiences.
"What we're doing with 3-D printing is adding another level of learning for our students," Norman Philipp, assistant professor in PSU's School of Construction, said. "Being able to print 3-D models, giving the students something to feel and touch and pass around, helps them better incorporate the information we're trying to pass to them."
Also known as additive manufacturing, 3-D printing is the process by which a three-dimensional solid object of virtually any shape is created from a 3-D digital model. Philipp said 3-D printing can take place using a variety of materials, such as metals, wood and even concrete.
The 3-D printer at the Kansas Technology Center works by using a fine powder and bonding agent to create the items.
"The machine applies the powder layer by layer, printing up the object as it goes," he said.
This type of printing has been a major benefit to the construction industry, as it allows builders, contractors and designers to view and assess a physical model of what is to be constructed.
"Traditionally, design is done using two-dimensional blueprints," Philipp said. "By adding a 3-D model, it allows you that direct communication from a 3-D design to a 3-D product. We can't always go out and build the things we're talking about in class, but we can design it in 3-D and print a model that our students can hold and study."
Philipp said the 3-D printer, which was installed at the KTC last summer, is creating new ways of teaching and learning.
"It really is making teaching a better experience both for classroom instructors and our students," he said. "This is one of the advantages of being at Pitt State. We have this wonderful technology readily available. We're at the cutting edge with this technology, and we're preparing our students to be leaders in industry.
"We're making leaders of tomorrow with the technology we're putting in their hands today," Philipp said.

Make-Ahead Farro with Radicchio, Prosciutto and Orange Recipe
Oranges add a hint of sweetness against the tarter flavors of radicchio, balsamic and orange zest. I ate this both the night I made it as well as for lunch the next day, and actually preferred the flavors after they had sat. Nutty with good bite, farro absorbs flavor but doesn't become mushy or stale. The grain shares some of the same starch as Arborio rice, making it a hearty alternative in creamy risottos. And like a good risotto, each grain in this dish is full of rich flavor, making it more than just an afterthought.
If you prefer a less tart version, cut down on the orange zest, and up the orange juice slightly. Make sure to buy semipearled farro; this mean it doesn't have to be pre-soaked, and can be cooked in about 20 minutes.

Rich rain: But little flooding despite nearly 2" overnight
The steady nature of the overnight rainfall combined with the parched earth of the summer's severe drought seemed to limit flooding from the remnants of Tropical Storm Nicole. The Twitter feed of the Newsplex's weather department reports that the storm delivered 1.83" of rain from midnight to 9am. The Rivanna Water & Sewer Authority instituted a call for voluntary water conservation one week ago when the urban reservoirs were around 67 percent of capacity. Yesterday, they were down to 65 percent, but when the figures for Thursday get posted, they'll probably be higher.
Update: The October 1 report shows both the Rivanna and Sugar Hollow reservoirs full and the Ragged Mountain Reservoir, which can't fill itself without a pipeline or a massive rainfall, still 3.3 feet below capacity.

Thank you for your continued voice on this issue. During periods of drought like we have experienced over the last few months, RWSA wouldn't even have to perform dredging, they could have removed sediment with dump trucks and front-end loaders or track-hoes. There was no water in this sediment. Scoop it up, put it on a truck and drive it away. No dewatering needed. Sediment removal under such conditions would be fast, efficient and cheap compared to dredging. But RWSA did nothing. Maybe during our next 10-year drought we won't have Tom Frederick holed up in an office dreaming of $200M dams.
Oh no! Not another dam thread! :)
side note - I bet the person on the bicycle in the image was mad as a wet nornet because he actually had to obey a red traffic light and stop... or get run over by the white car.
Bob Fenwick walked on the South Fork Rivanna Reservoir.
And yesterday, it was filled, in portions, with nothing but muck.
Today it will be filled with water. South Fork is our most valuable source of water supply, because; with its large water shed it fills very quickly after a rain.
Just dredging this reservoir, keeping it dredged (at a very affordable cost- by selling the dredged material), and continuing the downward trend in water use- will give us all the water we need for 40 years and probably beyond.
RWSA has spent $12 million ratepayer dollars and climbing, to build a dam, with not a drop of water to show for it, in fact, by neglecting South Fork, they have lost water capacity over the last 10 years.
Let's tell our officials to stop stalling. There has NEVER been any dredging of this reservoir to maintain water supply and that is wrong. --and don't let them tell you it can't be done --dredgers all over America reading the fearmongering in our media, about dredging say, we are the laughing stock of the dredging world.
This should not only be a major part of our future water supply plan, but should be what we do first.

Good morning! How are y'all enjoying our new (temporary) digs so far?
Our baker baker posted this story on her facebook page and I couldn't help but laugh. It's Scary Mommy's take on the whole "It gets easier" line of advice that new parents receive. She basically called bullsh*t:
It's true: You won't always be walking through life in a complete haze or sterilizing baby bottles for the rest of your life, but in my brief experience, parenting doesn't get any easier. I look back on those days of schlepping around an infant carrier and complaining about spit-ups as the easiest I'll ever have it. I'm sorry, new moms. Truly.
Some of her points are hilarious ("The bags under your eyes and the poochy stomach will go away. They will? Clearly I'm doing something wrong") but overall, I found myself disagreeing. For me, it has gotten easier as my children have gotten older (and this is coming from someone who actually enjoys newborns and infants). I will say the sleep thing is probably 80% of it. But now that Maya is 7 and can entertain herself quietly without me worrying that she's hurting herself or destroying our house, she seems way easy (check back when she becomes a teenager, I'm sure I'll be eating my words!). Yes, I spend time schlepping her to lessons and practice, and supervising homework, and helping her navigate the social minefield that is 1st grade, but overall, it feels easy for the moment. Certainly easier than my 2-year-old who can't sit through a meal, draws on the walls with crayons, naps when he damn well feels like it and can still throw a hell of a tantrum. Yesterday, he peed on the bathroom floor and when I looked over and realized what was happening, he had a shit-eating grin on his face. There's really no other way to describe it. I was as appalled as I was amused!
What say you? Has it gotten easier as your kids have gotten older, or do you long for the days of the immobile, helpless infant who could be quieted with a boob or a bottle? Weigh in!
Also, this place in D.C. has created a cupcake in a cup, topped with frozen yogurt. I want to go to there. That is all.
What else is on your mind today? Chat away!
