DustX Fights Dust Inside PCs, Patents Innovation
DustX Computer Dust Solutions decided to patent their Peel-and-Stick Computer Air Filter that is claimed to protect PC internals from dust. The product is a hybrid of fibrous nonwoven fabric and adhesive tape.
All you have to do is cut out a needed shape, remove protective film and attach the filter onto the enclosure. The company recommends that you replace old filters every 3-6 months depending on the amount of dust.
A pack of 3 filters sized 15õ15cm costs $10, but right now first buyers get a discount and pay $7.95.

As part of our Case for Space project , we will be working with 19 talented young researchers from around the globe to try and answer the following question:
"What is the enabling environment (necessary conditions and structures) that ensures children and young people have access to their rights, can influence decisions, and have improved livelihoods?"
To kick-off, the 19 young researchers will be meeting at the Global Young Researchers Lab in Berlin, Germany, later this week. Taking inspiration from a traditional "laboratory", the Global Young Researchers Lab will provide space for new, innovative and experimental ideas in the area of youth research and advocacy.
This 5-day seminar aims to support each of the researchers to develop a methodology for the regional-level research they will lead in the coming months.
You can read about Brian's motivation for participating in his blog here. Brian is a young person from Uganda currently working on mainstreaming youth in the African Union's Mission on Ebola and has previously worked with UNAIDS and the WHO. Find out more about his perspective on how 'peerness' in research can make a difference.
What is the Case for Space project all about?
The forthcoming Sustainable Development Goals offer a generational opportunity to assert that young people can, and should be, at the heart of development. However, our analysis and experience is that current conditions are mostly disenabling of young people's participation and young people continue to face particular conditions of marginalisation and vulnerability. We believe that to address this there is a need for a 'Case for Space': an evidence-based argument of the added value that will be delivered for development and governance by youth action, rooted in an analysis of what presently works, what current constraints are, and how constraints can be overcome.
The Case for Space is a research and advocacy project commissioned by Restless Development, War Child and Youth Business International and is being implemented in partnership with Youth Policy Labs. The first phase of the project will produce a high-profile piece of research and analysis, using an innovative, youth-led methodology. From September 2015, we will move onto the second phase of the project and will use the findings from the research to support us and the youth sector to both influence policy and ensure quality practice in youth development.
Who are the young researchers?
Our partners Youth Policy Labs are implementing the research phase of the Case for Space and have selected 19 young researchers from 12 sub-regions the world, who bring a wealth of experience and skills in the areas of youth journalism, working with young people and conducting research.
"Soha Mohamed Osman is a researcher in the international development field through her work with UNDP as well as a number of other local and international NGOs. Her research addresses the dynamics of collective action and urban governance in the Arab region."
"Jake Soriano is a journalist from the Philippines, Jake reports in-depth on peace and conflict, the environment, and social protection for persons with disabilities including youth and children. He loves world cinema, poems about strange animals, and tennis matches on TV. He has covered a human trafficking rescue operation, a typhoid outbreak, and bogus nonprofits defrauding the government of billions in public funds."
Click here to find out who the other Global Young Researchers are and where they come from. These young researchers will be supported to gather data (between May and July 2015) to inform the final global advocacy report, which we hope to launch in September 2015.

I ve a phobia of heights... i can't even jump from on top of a chair... i wanna go skydiving... how can i get over this fear?
Most Helpful Guy
Most Helpful Girl
First I think you should learn how deep your phobia is. They say to imagine a room with a case of money in it, you have to somehow face your phobia to get to the case. How much money is required to be in the case to make you do it? For me, there is no amount for my phobia. For some it could be 100 dollars, some a million etc.
After that, you should evaluate if you think you can handle it on your own. For example watching sky diving videos, starting with jumping of a chair (as you said struggles you). But perhaps see a psychologist and go into some behavioural therapy. However, despite what people are saying, exposure does not just fix a phobia it can make it worse, it can actually hurt you physically and mentally. It can work! But not always.
However, I have been sky diving and I strongly do not recommend it if you have a fear of heights until you are 100% over it because if you start to panic while in the air on top of the adrenaline already going through your system, you could have a heart attack or worse. So I'd really make sure to care for yourself first and not rush things.11|00|0
my fear is basically of just getting hurt when i jump... u see as a kid i was thrown down a staircase n i hit my head hard... so experiencing that again scares me
- Show AllShow Less
Sounds good. Start with a chair, move to a table. Hell start with jumping off a chair onto a mattress. Move up. But honestly, think greatly about sky diving. Go to a tall sky scaper that has a glass floor and try standing on that before you go sky diving. It can be a lot more full on than you expect and I'd hate for you to rush into it and hurt yourself.
But having your brother there for the chair thing sounds smart.
thank u... like that i can stand anywhere as long i ve some sort of railing or someone's hand to hold... otherwise i start getting dizzy... thank u soo much for ur help

Title triumph for Jankovic
Sixth seed Jelena Jankovic cruised to BNP Paribas Open victory with a decisive 6-4 6-2 win over Danish teenager Caroline Wozniacki.
By Rachel Griffiths
Last Updated: 21/03/10 9:49pm
Sixth seed Jelena Jankovic cruised to BNP Paribas Open victory on Sunday with a decisive 6-4 6-2 win over Danish teenager Caroline Wozniacki.
The former world number one lined up the triumph with three breaks of serve in the opening set before breaking immediately in the second to secure her 12th WTA career title and her first since Cincinnati in August last year.
Jankovic had suffered a rocky start to her season, crashing out in the first round of her previous tournament in Monterrey before arriving at Indian Wells.
But the 25-year-old Serb enjoyed a fairly comfortable run to the final before powering to victory in one hour and 24 minutes against rising star Wozniacki, who has now lost all four of their encounters.
The 19-year-old Dane can draw some consolation from the fact that her progress to the decider will see her jump to a career-high ranking of world number two when the new rankings are announced on Monday, with Jankovic moving up to number eight.
"It's been a great two weeks for me, really amazing," said Jankovic.
"I'm so happy and so thrilled that I was able to win this title."
"I want to congratulate Caroline for making it such a great event and also for making it to number two in the world."
Wozniacki, last year's U.S. Open finalist, struggled to hit her stride in the opening set, winning just 30 per cent of the points on her first serve as her opponent dominated from the baseline.
Jankovic closed out the first set on her third set point as Wozniacki sent a forehand long, then maintained her momentum going into the second, breaking instantly in the first game.
She went on to earn a match point with a backhand winner and took advantage when Wozniacki fired a service return long to wrap up the commanding victory.
"Jelena played a good match today," said Wozniacki.
"She didn't make a lot of mistakes. I tried to change it when I saw it was not going way but I just made a few too many errors at the important points.
"I couldn't really get to play the game that I wanted to play, and Jelena took advantage of that."

When it comes to handlebars, tried and true aluminium remains the material of choice for many pros. In part, that's because their bikes have to meet a minimum weight requirement.
|Weight (g):
But it also means that aluminium bars like the Service Course SL have to meet the fit, durability, and performance standards of athletes like US cyclocross champion Tim Johnson and the Cannondale Cyclocross Team prepared by CyclocrossWorld.
The Service Course SL is produced using Zipp's proprietary ZTL-71 alloy and intricate internal butting processes to achieve a weight of 280g (42cm) with superior strength and rigidity. It features a classic look with round cross-sections throughout and is available in the same, comfortable Short & Shallow or Traditional Bend shapes as their carbon bars. The drops are angled outward by 2° to reduce wrist strain.
Road bars are curved to offer a multitude of positions to suit the terrain. When climbing in the saddle you will often ride on the tops which are the part of the bar either side of the stems clamping point. When out of the saddle on climbs or accelerating you will often ride on the lever hoods mounted at the front of the bars curved section. For higher speeds you will find yourself on the drops, which offer a lower more aerodynamic position. Road bars come in a variety of widths, from 36cm wide up to 44cm, a good guide for bar width is your shoulder width, a bar should not be narrower than your shoulders as this can close up your chest, but they should not be so wide that you are creating a large frontal area. Road handlebars come in two clamp sizes, 31.8mm which is oversized and 26/25.8mm which is standard, it is essential that you get the correct clamp size for your stem as a poor fit will slip round. Road bars also come in different shapes and depths, with various bends for ergonomic reasons, some will also feature grooves in the material for your brake and gear cables to slot into, this helps to keep the bar round once tape is applied. Then there is the all-in-one bar and stem systems from brands such as Cinelli's Ram 2 and the Pro Stealth which offer clean lines and look great with their exposed carbon finish.
Zipp Cycle Components are the producers of wheels, handlebars, cranks and cycle accessories are a manufacturing company located in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA and are part of the growing SRAM group. Zipp Speed Weaponry serves a select group of elite companies and athletes, globally located and committed to bicycle and wheelchair competition.

Why I love my mini van {and don't understand why other people don't}April 10, 2013

- Starr said...
We bought a 2005 Odyssey when we decided to have a third child. We were going to have three rear-facing car seats, and the three-row SUVs were either very cramped or way too big. My ego has never been wrapped around my choice of vehicle, so I don't get the mental block either. But some people think their cars make them awesome-er. I already know I'm awesome! Ride on with your bad self!

I love the video. We have small cars, I own a KIA and prior to that I had a ford wagon.
My husband also has a KIA. our kids are older, but they may inherit my car when the time comes. I can't afford the gas on a bigger vehicle. How much does the SUV get for gallon of gas?? I can fill my KIA for 45 dollars and get 400 miles prior to another fill up.

I love my minivan too! Even though my kids are off at college, I can never see myself driving anything else. For a DIYer it's great. I can fold all the seats down into the floor and fill it up with furniture! Or junk! Ooh, the seats are down now...maybe I should go junkin' today!

I always thought we would get an SUV when we were ready for a bigger car...Not sure WHY I was so adverse to a minivan. But we rented one for a family vacation a couple years ago and I fell in love. Can't wait till we are ready to get rid of my husbands truck so I can upgrade from my PT Cruiser. I love her, but MAN...way to small for kids with long legs.

haha. I have an odyssey too. it is a lease that we are giving back in a few weeks so our new van is a town and country.

Apparently I lied. Thelma is a 2004 Honda. Even girl mini vans don't like to confess their real age on the internet!

And someone asked about gas mileage. Around town where we do most of our driving I get 20 mpg. Will have to verify with my hubby and get back to you and make sure I did my math right!

Haha! I love this post. I have a 2003 Honda odyssey and I wouldn't trade it for anything, well except maybe a newer Odyseey. LOL. Ppl just don't get why I love it so much, but it is by far my favorite vehicle that I've ever driven. I had a 2000 model before this one and I literally cried when it was wrecked and deemed beyond repair. My husband thought I was crying because I felt guilty for wrecking it even though it was not my fault. I told him no I was crying because I loved that van and it felt like a member of the family. So for a year I drove a piece of crap Ford windstar until I was finally able to find another Odyssey!

Tommy Hilfiger – Dyslexia Business Success – SEO
Numerous dyslexics accept an imaginative edge that allows them to find wild success. Tommy Hilfiger is no exception.
Acknowledged for their red, white, and blue rectangular logo design, Hilfiger's garments became some of the most trendy garments in the 1990's. Although they were ruled out high-fashion, Hilfiger's marketing savvy permitted him to excel in the market.
"I performed poorly at school, when I went to, that is, and was regarded as dumb because of my dyslexia ," Hilfiger stated. He never went to college, but he believes that his absence of formal training was really a benefit in the marketing world. Since he thought differently than other designers, he was able to produce one-of-a-kind clothes and designs that stood out in the shops.
Hilfiger recognizes that in order to succeed in life, it takes a great deal of perseverance. He has absolutely proven that fact.
Tommy Hilfiger: American designer who produced his own signature brand. Born: March 24, 1951. It is believed that he comes from a Jewish family and may have required a Bar Mitzvah teacher skilled with pupils with learning difficulties .
By the late 1990s, Tommy Hilfiger had replaced Levi Strauss as the clear-cut American jeans business. In 2005, CBS even produced a reality program called The Cut that followed 16 designers as they vied for a place with his business.
While Hilfiger's success would be impressive no matter what, it is all the more so when you think about that young Tommy was such a bad student that he never even went to college.
I performed poorly at school, when I went to, that is, and was perceived as dumb because of my dyslexia . I still have difficulty reading. I have to focus very hard at going left to right, left to right, otherwise my eye simply wanders to the bottom of the page.
In the end, however, it was Hilfiger's lack of formal training that gave his business the edge over other, more well established designers. By welcoming the fact that he thought differently than those around him, he had the ability to create clothing that attracted attention both on the design and in the stores.
I understood precisely what I wished to do: I wanted to build a brand of clothing around my own attitude and my own way of living.
Today, although he just recently sold his business for $1.6 billion, his values remain the like when he initially began selling pants back in 1969.
It takes effort, ingenuity, perseverance and nerve to prosper.
Business Promotion | Designer Glasses and SEO
For 25 years, Tommy Hilfiger has brought classic, cool, American apparel to consumers around the world. His designs give time-honored classics a fresh look, and his discerning taste has provided the foundation for the growth of a global brand.
Under Hilfiger's guidance, vision and leadership as Principal Designer, the Tommy Hilfiger Group has become one of very few globally recognized designer brands offering a wide range of American-inspired apparel and accessories.
As a modern entrepreneur, Hilfiger is well aware of the importance of the Internet for marketing.
Success on the Internet begins with top page positioning on Google. This in turn depends on relevance and reputation. Relevance is like your own presentation of yourself. You must include the best keywords on your webpage and coding – particularly the Page title if you are to be found for these keywords. Reputation, as far as the search engines are concerned is about what others say about you in the links from their websites to yours.
Google sums up the value of the incoming links to a webpage as PageRank. The total page reputation of a webpage is the sum of the PageRank of the page, the PageRank of the HomePage and a bonus if it is the HomePage of the website that is competing. The HomePage PageRank of Hilfiger's HomePage is 5. Not surprisingly, if you have an SME website, you are highly unlikely to achieve a HomePage PageRank greater than 4.
Page Relevance for Keywords
If your webpage is to have a chance of top page positioning on Google for a target keyword phrase, the phrase or at least the words in the phrase must be in the Page title and visible on the page. For a firm like Tommy Hilfiger, there is probably no need to worry about the service or products that they supply: They have an internationally known brand. But the same is not true for SMEs. Consider the example of an optician providing a service of coloured tinted glasses for dyslexia . Certainly colour tinted glasses dyslexia are words that should appear in the page title and on the webpage but a large total page reputation of 8.9 is required to compete with the pages on the top page of Google for 'colour tinted glasses dyslexia'. Tommy Hilfiger, incidentally, being dyslexic might benefit from such lenses although it is unlikely that he would have them fitted in Ray-Ban prescription glasses.
When Hilfiger married for a second time in 2008, it is unlikely that he had to shop around for all the new home items that most of us would need. A luxury kitchen for the new couple yet but I doubt if they did the travelling around to find their requirements. In fact these days, most people look around the Internet first or have a broker do the difficult work for you. This could save you money in the long-term. A luxury kitchen showroom might consider promoting themselves not only with SEO for their website but my other means such as door to door distribution of leaflets around their locality or even further afield.
How does a Hilfiger relax? U2night may have the answer. Meditation may be part of it and certainly for those in the North East London area a simple Google search for Meditation North East London will do the trick.

Sure, I know learning vocabulary is almost like a tradition in America. We've been writing our spelling and vocabulary words for decades. We've also been finding those science and history bold faced terms that sound like Greek, and trying to look them up. Vocabulary is everywhere… it's in our math, our language arts, our science, our history, even in art and music. So, are we missing it by requiring students to mundanely write out vocabulary definitions that are longer than my arm? Can it be done another way?
For the most part vocabulary instruction in America has been based on a written or oral learning process. Yet, we know that learning vocabulary works best when the new words are connected to old meanings. That simply means that the new knowledge is taught via connections to the knowledge the student has already (aka schemata.) These connections to meaning are like routes on a map, and they enable understanding. Proverbs 14:6 says, "…knowledge is easy unto him that understandeth." It is the connections that make the understanding, and it is these connections in learning that I have based my teaching methods on for over 20 years. If you want a child to learn something – connect it to what he already knows!
Secondly, learning is easy when we can see the process. Just like doubting Thomas in the Bible. He didn't believe that Jesus had risen from the dead until he saw His wounds and touched them. Who knows… maybe Thomas was a visual/tactile learner and just really couldn't "get it" without seeing and touching. so many children are just like that. Allow them to use more than just their ears, and they have understanding for life.
Third, if we can get the student to apply this knowledge or internalize it through use they will be able to solidify it in their thinking. We've heard so many times, if we do something more than 14 times it becomes a habit. Similiar is true here, if the student can use the vocabulary word (or other new knowledge) in a real life situation it begins to become part of his/her daily life.
Several popular vocabulary instruction strategies that incorporate these three key ideas include:
1) Pre teaching words prior to reading
2) Using the context of words within a story to understand their meaning.
3) Word walls
4 ) Shades of meaning – using paint cards with hues of a color – give students words that are varying intensities of the same idea. The student organizes them according to what they believe is the most intense (darker hue) to the least intense (lighter hue).
5)Root word analysis – use picture cards of the root word – and then add prefix and suffixes.
6)Vocabulary Bingo
7) Charades with vocabulary words
8) Synonym lists for vocabulary words – finding synonyms that they already know is enabling them to make connections!

MSNBC anchor Chris Matthews began his show Hardball last night celebrating the birthday of President Obama. Following is a transcript of that portion of the broadcast.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Tonight we pay tribute to our President, Barack Obama, on his 53rd birthday. Over the years I've been laughed at for my allegiance to my president. Some think it's weird that I would worship a man sixteen years my junior. So let me ask the haters, when Jesus was alive were all his followers younger than he was? No, of course not. So I say to those who mock me and poke fun, I will not deny my president. I stand today as I've stood for six years – a hopelessly devoted disciple of my president. Happy Birthday, Mr. President! Now, let's play Hardball!
(Music plays to start the show)
CHRIS MATTHEWS: (dabbing eyes with tissue) I get emotional when I talk about Barack Obama. What can I say? I'm passionate about my president. Let me welcome my guests: Washington Post's African American writer, Eugene Robinson, MSNBC lesbian, Rachel Maddow and MSNBC's African American civil rights leader, Rev. Al Sharpton. Eugene Robinson, my African American friend, what are your feelings on this special day, our president's fifty-third birthday?
EUGENE ROBINSON: It's a very special day.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: It's exciting isn't it? Rachel, do lesbians celebrate birthdays?
RACHEL MADDOW: Of course we do, Chris.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Ha! I'm just teasing, Rachel.
AL SHARPTON: Chris, I learned a long time ago, the hard way, not to tease a lesbian.
RACHEL MADDOW: What does that mean?
AL SHARPTON: Oh, nothing.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Rachel, when you woke up this morning, were you aware it was President Obama's birthday?
RACHEL MADDOW: No, I didn't find out until you told me.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Every year I'm always disappointed that my fellow progressives are not aware of our president's birthday. I mean, it's such an important day to remember. We remember July 4th every year. We remember Christmas.
EUGENE ROBINSON: I'm sure that will change when whites become a minority in a few decades.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Unfortunately, I won't be here to celebrate that momentous occasion. I'll be dead by then.
EUGENE ROBINSON: Oh, don't say that.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: I'm almost sixty-nine years old, Eugene. I really don't see myself living to be in my hundreds. Even if I do, I'll be a basket case. The show's maintenance crew has to mop up my spittle during commercial breaks now. If I live to be a hundred I'll have to live in a bathtub. Ha!
(Chris Matthews and Eugene Robinson share a high-five)
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Reverend Al, you're a man of God.
AL SHARPTON: (nods)
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Do you think God is partial to President Obama?
AL SHARPTON: You mean as proposed to the rest of us?
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Look, we all know that God is partial to Jesus. But I wonder if God has other favorites?
AL SHARPTON: The Bible says the lord works on mysterious days.
RACHEL MADDOW: I don't think God would place any of us before the other. Even the president.
AL SHARPTON: How do you think he feels about you lesbians?
RACHEL MADDOW: What makes you so certain God is a he?
AL SHARPTON: 'Cause he's called Father. The only time a woman is called father is when she grows a mustache and adopts a baby with her lesbians.
RACHEL MADDOW: I don't think God differentiates. Don't most religions espouse a loving and fair God?
AL SHARPTON: I don't know what he thinks about the French, but God hasn't been fair to African Americans of color.
EUGENE ROBINSON: I have to agree with the reverend.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: He hasn't been fair to you guys, has he? Why do you think that is, Rev. Al?
AL SHARPTON: He's obviously white.
RACHEL MADDOW: Is it God or white people who haven't been fair to African Americans?
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Good point, Rachel. But is there any evidence God is white?
AL SHARPTON: I can assure you one thing, if he was black his only forgotten son wouldn't have been a white boy.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Are there any African Americans in the Bible?
AL SHARPTON: The only one I know of is Judas.
RACHEL MADDOW: How do you know that?
AL SHARPTON: I saw his picture on the Jesus Christ Super Star album.
EUGENE ROBINSON: Well, first of all America didn't exist during the days of Jesus.
AL SHARPTON: Yes it did. The Bible says God finished creating the Earth during the weekdays before he partied on the weekend. So that would mean America was here from the days of the apple and the lizard.
RACHEL MADDOW: To your point, Chris, African Americans did not exist 2000 years ago.
AL SHARPTON: (wide eyed) Say what? Some people say Africa is the oldest country in history. And I'm sure that's at least 2,000 years ago.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: I think what Rachel means is there probably weren't any Africans in America during biblical times.
AL SHARPTON: That's because they were called slaves back then.
EUGENE ROBINSON: The argument about whether God is white or black has been debated for years. Curious, isn't it, that it's not whether he's Asian or Hispanic.
AL SHARPTON: That's not deflatable because in his photographs Jesus has blue eyes. I ain't ever seen an Asian or Mexican with blue eyes.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Eugene has a point. Why can't God be Hispanic?
RACHEL MADDOW: Why can't God be an Hispanic lesbian woman?
AL SHARPTON: That might be conscrewed as blastomy.
RACHEL MADDOW: Why would that be blasphemy?
AL SHARPTON: If Jesus was a Mexican lesbian he would have turned the ocean into tequila. Then he'd have to turn the fish into limes and the bread into taco shells. Everything in the Bible would have to be changed.
CHRIS MATTHEWS: One thing I'm pretty certain of, I seriously doubt Jesus was as good looking as President Obama.
RACHEL MADDOW: (chuckling) Obama is a good looking man.
AL SHARPTON: To be fair, we've never seen Jesus clean shaven with a haircut.
EUGENE ROBINSON: But the big question is, would Jesus wear dad jeans?
CHRIS MATTHEWS: Now that is what I call blasphemy, my African American friend! And personally, I love the dad jeans. OK, we're out of time. Happy Birthday Mr. President!

Going Home…
This mix is for my very beloved-bay-area-burningman camp, Laughing Monkeys. I am so excited to have motivated to make the trek out to the playa all the way from the East Coast this year. When I pull it off, imma feel like a million bucks! I want to whole-heartedly dedicate this mix I made to my campmates. I can't wait to be dusty with you. All of us have hours and hours to plan and fly, drive, swim, cartwheel out to Nevada. I made this for your journey. There are epic moments and quiet moments transmitted via soultronica + future bass music.
Much love,

|The Paleta party at Bembe (even on Mondays) has been cracking. To celebrate, I'm posting the tropical radio show I did on EVR this summer around the Latin Alternative Music Conference. Lots of people (Even my bestie Robin from Jack Magazine down in Medellin) didn't know that I [what did he say?] am a "dj sabrosa!" Lol. You will find a jumble of yum digital dancehall, electocumbias, afro + latin music with a progressive, electronic flair. Enjoy it before the glorious summer days are done.
Coachella 2011
Thanks to Global Inheritance for inviting me to play. I treated them to a break from the crazy adrenaline-filled, throat-grabbing sets that were so popular this year.
Sunset always demands something special. So I picked out lots of sexy cutting-edge bass music.
And since I got to be there all three days this year, I have to report back on the best performances. My awards go to: Joy Orbison, Ellie Goulding, Francis and the Lights and Sleigh Bells.. who absolutely kicked ass, hands down.

Jefferson Market and Cakery (at Jefferson and Fifth St.) turns one year old on April 1st this year. In honor of this auspicious event, they're having a little party with (free) birthday cake and coffee starting when they open at 8:00am. I hear the cake is going to be something special and have been given special dispensation to show up early for the photo op. Can't wait to see!
In honor of April Fool's Day they're also having some fun with cupcakes. Made by baker Alli Bila, these little trompe l'oeil for your mouth include: corn on the cob, mashed potatoes and gravy, spaghetti and meatballs, and chicken legs! Owner Mary Rasmussen would not divulge the actual flavors - but she allowed that perhaps the true nature of the cupcakes could be revealed on April 2nd.
However, I am not so constrained and I am willing to say that upon careful inspection (and perhaps a tiny sticky bit when I was moving these photogenic little cakes around) I could see what appeared to be red velvet cake, perhaps a chocolate truffle or two, some white chocolate and perhaps a bit of maple. I am in love with these adorable cupcakes!
Mary said it's been a wild ride this year - that the outpouring of love in the first couple of weeks and months was overwhelming and something she didn't quite expect. She compared it to being bowled over by a big enthusiastic dog. But she says by now they've staffed up, gotten organized with their inventory and now she feels like she's got it under control. In addition to pretty cakes, yummy pastries and homemade soups, they are also doing quite a bit of lunch catering says Mary. When I asked if they had noticed a drop in business associated with the economy it sounded like there was a bit less walk-in traffic, but they're making it up in other ways. For example, they're still renting out the kitchen on an hourly basis when they're not using it. Mary said every little bit helps. After feeling like the first couple of months almost killed her, this one year anniversary is a big milestone she says.
So, Happy Birthday Jefferson Market and Cakery! Long may your spaghetti and meatballs cupcakes be enjoyed by April Fools and everyone else.

Newman Ready for Michigan
By: Dustin Long - @dustinlong on June 12, 2013 | 9:05 A.M. EST
Newman is currently 18th in the standings. (Photo: Getty Images)
Among the congratulatory texts Jimmie Johnson received after his victory last weekend at Pocono Raceway was one from Ryan Newman.
"It was good running with you again," Newman texted.
In an up-and-down season, Newman ran at the front with Johnson at Pocono. After leading a season-high 19 laps, Newman placed fifth, matching his Daytona 500 result for best finish of the year.
Although pit strategy helped Newman to the front - he assumed the lead on lap 68 by not pitting when the rest of the field did - it was how his car drove that meant the most to him.
"I think that we were the most competitive that we've been in quite a while," Newman said. "I feel that we can carry that into Michigan and a few other places like Indianapolis as well."
Newman's recent run parallels the improvements at Stewart-Haas Racing. Teammate Tony Stewart has scored three consecutive top-10 finishes. They, along with rookie Danica Patrick, had struggled with the car's handling early in the season. Before Sunday's race, Newman had led only 11 laps all year.
"It did feel good to be back up front," Newman said.
The question is how much of that speed can carry over to the 2-mile Michigan track this weekend?
"I think a percentage of it does," Newman said. "I mean, if you look at from our side on the Hendrick engine side, those guys are doing a great job and you look at the Toyota guys and they are having to pull the pin on a couple of their performance situations and knock back a little bit of their performance at a track that you have to have engine horsepower.
"Michigan, because of the repave, I think is more similar than ever to Pocono, especially like Turn 1 because of the banking and the speed that you carry down into turn one at Pocono."
With Sunday's race presented by Newman's sponsor, Quicken Loans, some could view it as additional pressure but not him.
"For me, I look at it from this perspective: If I go out there and do my job as a driver, then I'm protecting my relationship with my sponsor and with my team and everybody else, and the second part of that is, you would think that it would be self centered but it's really not," he said. "If you take care of the one, it takes care of everything else.
"There's no pressure from the outside. From my perspective it's an opportunity to do something even greater, to win your own race as a title sponsor and a car sponsor. I've had the opportunity to do it before and haven't, so I look forward to another opportunity."
Just as meaningful would be to win on Father's Day - again. He won on that day there in 2004. He remembers a talk he had with his dad before that race.
"I said "This is the only thing I'm going to try to get you is this victory and there's no guarantee to, but know that I'm trying' and that's enough for my dad because he's a racer,'" Newman said.
"So I look forward to Father's Day weekend now for two reasons, because I still try to win each and every race for my dad, especially Father's Day weekend, but obviously for my two girls, as well."

To this day, when he asked me if I wanted to go to dinner, I wasn't sure if it was a date. I mean, I thought it could be, but never having been asked on one, I wasn't sure.
I'll always remember what he ordered. "The cheeseburger without cheese."
I can't remember what I got. I just know there were fries involved.
As we sat in that booth with vinyl seating, under the pendant light at TGI Friday's, we conversed. Learned more about each other beyond the, "Hi my name is ____ and I'm from _______," that happened frequently interning at Disney World.
I was in a place where I didn't know what I wanted to do with my life. Photography was not even on my radar at the time. But I knew that the time I had in Florida was precious and being filled with dreams I hadn't ever imagined.
Seven years ago I said, "Yes," to a dinner invitation that changed my life.
Here's to more years of ordering cheeseburgers without cheese, sitting in vinyl covered booths, and chasing dreams, together.
Dear Cent, Thank you for always encouraging my dreams, even when I feel like it wouldn't work. You never let me give up, and I can't thank you enough for that. I love you!
Stay tuned to big changes…coming very very soon!

- changed status to resolved
Nice work, thanks!
You're right that solution 1 is not an option since it does not allow to insert raw HTML. So soultion 2 is just perfect.
Indeed using the modules
__dict__ is also nice, because then the macros module and the macros dictionary used in pages implicitly equal (in fact they are identical). The only negative side-effect that may occur is that some standard macros like
__content__ might overwrite similar named items in the macro module. However, I think this an unlikely issue.
If pulled your changes and applied some minor tweaks. Thanks again for your clean contributions.

text: As the 4th of July approaches, it is natural to reflect on those qualities that have preserved American independence for the past 230 years. Until the advent of intercontinental ballistic missile flight during the Cold War, the security of the U.S. homeland was largely preserved by the expanse of the Atlantic and Pacific Oceans and the might of the U.S. Navy. The end of the Cold War should have brought with it a recession in the threat to the American public from ballistic missiles, but the events of the past weeks and months shows quite plainly that we must once again defend ourselves against this challenge to our security and prosperity.

I've been with this young woman 1.5 years and it started off that I was very jealous and what have you. She stuck around, we moved in together, and I grew more anxious, wanted to blot out my consciousness with drugs and alcohol. Then for 6 months I said I have to get her out, have to break up, started being attracted to other women, etc.
Well, now that she's on her way out, I had that old feeling come back, with the Fall air breezing by, watching the people and the cars dance. It was as if, once I knew she was going to be gone, my mind was at ease enough, to slow down and let me observe.
The problem now is, she describes her everyday experience as that way... Why is it, she has much more presence, and I have none, yet when she's going to go, I have more?

The year before I moved to Princeton, I remember sitting on the floor of my middle school gym and talking to a few of my eighth grade friends. I had revealed that I wouldn't be attending high school with them, and they were giving me some advice on moving.
"I read a book about a girl who completely reinvented herself when she moved schools. You should do that, Karina!"
It sounded appealing. For eighth grade me, Princeton represented a clean slate, a potential to re-create my reputation.
The summer before freshman year, I left my old hometown in North Carolina and settled down in Princeton. Like many rising freshmen, I was stressed. I worried about whether or not people I met would appreciate the "new" me. More than that, I was concerned about finding a group of friends in this larger school.
These social concerns quickly faded once I started school. I became distracted by classwork, new teachers, and clubs, all while attempting to navigate the maze-like hallways. I forgot all about my new vision of myself I had set out to achieve.
Entering my senior year, I realize reinvention is a difficult thing to force. Despite my forgotten plan for reinvention, I have evolved naturally during high school.
I have discovered interests I never knew I had, a new set of skills, and new friends. Many of these discoveries stemmed from my participation in extracurricular activities that are offered by both PHS and the town of Princeton.
Three years later, coming from middle school where I was only involved in cross country, I now participate in community service projects, contribute to school publications, and conduct scientific research. While I did have to expose myself to these opportunities, none of these new interests, friends, or communities were forced. PHS creates an environment in which students can't help but learn, evolve, and mature.
For those of you who are coming to PHS without an established group of friends, you will soon find them. They probably won't be the first people you meet, but your community may fall right into your lap when you attend that first club meeting, or when your English teacher assigns you a group project. Remember that there are many other people just like you who don't know anyone and are looking for people to meet and a group of friends to hang out with.
However, many more of you are already coming to PHS with a group of friends because you have built a community for yourself in middle school. No matter how close you are, this new environment will stir things up. You may grow apart from some friends, and you will definitely make new ones. I guarantee that by the end of freshman year, you'll look at the community of people surrounding you and realize that it is not the same as it was at the beginning.
To all incoming freshmen, newcomers or lifelong Princetonians, one of the most important things to do in the next four years at PHS is to find your high school community. Roam the club fair alone. Join clubs you are truly interested in, not just the ones your current friends sign up for. Try the sport that you've always wanted to. Strike up a conversation with the person you sit next to in history class.
No matter who you are or aspire to be, there is a perfect place for you at PHS. As my experience as a new student shows, rather than forcing yourself into that place, you will wake up one day and suddenly realize that you are already there. So sit back, relax, and enjoy your freshman year!

France Answers the Call of Cthulhu on Ulule
February 24, 2015 by dracs
French publisher Sans Detour have a crowdfunding campaign running on Ulule at the moment to bring out a new French translation of Call of Cthulhu 7th Edition. However, they don't seem to be stopping at a simple translation…
Call of Cthulhu is an incredibly popular pen and paper horror RPG set in the dark and disturbing world populated by the creations of H. P. Lovecraft and his contemporaries. Players take on the role of investigators, searching for clues in order to stop unimaginable terrors. Yet the deeper they go down the rabbit hole the more they feel their sanity slipping away.
This crowdfunding campaign to bring out a French translation of Chaosium's rules for 7th edition has met with a huge amount of success. It is easy to see why as Sans Detour aren't just promising a translation, but all new books and game aids filled with awesome artwork!
The quality being promised by Sans Detour is incredible. I wish I spoke French so I could fully appreciate these new editions! It is cool to see that French players will soon be able to get gaming in the latest version of this classic RPG, with all new goodies to help spark the imagination and get started in the race to san 0.
Are you a French gamer planning to help fund this? Would you like something like this to appear in English?
"Sans Detour aren't just promising a translation, but all new books and game aids filled with awesome artwork!"

Permaculture Research in the 21st Century: Web Surveys and Way, Way, Beyond
Participation in Permaculture is a web survey designed to help us learn about who is doing permaculture, how we are participating, and how it's affecting our lives and landscapes. It's part of a emerging phenomenon: doing research to systematically track and assess our impacts.
Holmgren and Mollison broke up with institutional science back when they forged the permaculture perspective and birthed a movement. They had good reasons for doing so — in the 1970s, there was virtually no scientific research to support the practical proposals they were making. Science wasn't ready.
For the past 34 years, permaculture has largely stayed on the track of an independent grassroots movement. If you search the massive databases of peer-reviewed scientific literature, there is almost (but not quite) zero mention of permaculture. That's not a criticism of permaculture's history — we've been busy growing a movement, project by project.
But the separation between permaculture and science is becoming more and more arbitrary and unnecessary. Over the past three decades, parallel disciplines to permaculture have emerged and matured within the scientific community: agroecology, agroforestry, ecological waste and water treatment, resilience science, participatory research methods, and much more. All of these approaches have accumulated an invaluable and impressive body of empirical research and theory. Science is ready. Now we need to show up.
How do we do it? How do we renew the relationship between permaculture and scientific research? There are two broad patterns for development. (1) We can energize our own practice and pedagogy by drawing on research from sympathetic scientific disciplines, like those mentioned above. There is far more support in the scientific literature for the practices we promote than many of us realize. And (2) we can begin systematically assessing our impacts — moving beyond boosterism to generate hard-nosed evaluations of what we're doing.
Participation in Permaculture is an example of the second pattern. This survey is an attempt to answer some very serious and basic questions about the permaculture movement, for which we currently just don't have good answers. Who is doing permaculture? How do we participate, and why? What are the effects on our lives and landscapes?
This survey questionnaire is broad, and its intended audience is broad: anybody who identifies with permaculture in any way. The survey attempts to capture (some of) the incredible diversity of ways in which people participate in permaculture. This broad data will provide context for more focused field research later on. For example, in the coming year I'll be doing my best to visit every permaculture-identified farming operation in the continental US. The intended outcome is two-fold: to establish a presence for permaculture in the scientific literature, and to provide a new kind of feedback to the movement, to let us know where our strengths and weaknesses lie. Domestic fieldwork is just a beginning.
These projects are a part of my doctoral dissertation research. The outputs of my dissertation will include 3-5 peer-reviewed journal articles, which will be accessible by anyone with internet access (either in an open-access journal, or as a pre-print). There will also be ample write-ups for a popular audience — i.e us, the movement.
So please contribute your time and perspective by going to liberationecology.org/survey and filling out the survey. It doesn't matter if you are a new student or an old hand — all are welcome. In the ~25 minutes it will take, you can help strengthen our understanding of where permaculture is at, and where it's going.

I appreciate your attempt to harness the considerable resources inherent in the academic and research communities. I've found many within academia who have come to appreciate the inherent limitations of reductionism and specialization, and I believe that our powerful design framework can provide these individuals and organizations with a path towards genuine service and reintegration with nature. Good work on tackling this challenge.
Thanks so much for your comment, Adam.
There are plenty of problems in academia, obviously. We just need to notice to how sprawling and diverse a place it is – observe the diversity of niches. For example, the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, where I am at, is a tremendous hub of Monsanto-funded GMO research. And down the hall from those researchers are brilliant agroecologists, and in the next building over are deeply radical political ecologists.
You may be able to guess which groups I'm working with. :)
Let's not abandon the resources in these institutions to reductive science and commodity-driven development. The moment is ripe for us to go invasive…
This is fantastic. I am currently applying for graduate school in the US and am coordinating with prospective advisers on conducting research related to Permaculture efficacy in international development. I am also applying for the NSF Graduate Fellows Program under the same topic. It appears that the old guard is fading in relation to conventional agriculture and a new breed of open, eager and excited scientists are emerging, many of which are interested in the evaluation of integrated systems. Some great examples can be found at UC Berkeley, Santa Cruz, Michigan State, Cornell and UMass. While a lot of the research is focused on improving cereal crop production it is a great first step and I am excited to be a part of this movement.
Thanks, Ryan. I agree wholeheartedly with your evaluation. I think the international development sector is a critical sector to get into and examine the handprint of permaculture.
