Enrique Allen had an epiphany while meditating one morning about how to bring design literacy to Silicon Valley. Instead of spending so much of his energy mentoring and consulting with startups about how to bring iterative creative thinking and a respect for user experience to their company culture, why not do the inverse? "I realized I should be helping designers become more startup-ey," Allen tells Co.Design. "Those are the people, who, if they become leaders in a company, will model design behavior from its inception, right in the company's DNA." So he started The Designer Fund to give entrepreneurial designers an on-ramp into the Silicon Valley world of angel investor networks, demo days, and funding rounds. "It's about helping to give designers a seat at the startup table that engineers and MBAs already have," Allen says. The intended result: Smarter companies, better products, happier users — and an improved world.
"It's about giving designers a seat at the startup table that engineers and MBAs already have."
But don't think that The Designer Fund is a cutesy attempt to turn font monkeys into dot-com tycoons just for the hell of it. "When I'm talking about design, I'm not just talking about the visual layer that everyone seems to think of when they hear the word," Allen asserts. "We really believe that designer-founders need to be able to guide the product and organization through 'the full stack': user research, interaction design, information architecture, all the way to the interface, and everything in between." In other word's Allen's fund is seeking people who already have the vision and entrepreneurial spirit that any Silicon Valley founder has — but just happen to self-identify as designers, too. Allen points out that designers have recently earned a rich pedigree in the Valley, having founded YouTube, Tumblr, Airbnb, Android, and Flickr, among others. And yet their talents are still unappreciated.
"What we're hoping to do is shift the paradigm of what design is. Design encompasses systems now, not just 'making things look pretty,'" Allen continues. "Designers have traditionally been paid a lot of money to make what people want; meanwhile, most startups fail because they make things that people don't actually want! We need more designers who are trained in methods of getting to these 'aha' moments about customers, products, and use cases to consistently do that with startups. And that's a great opportunity for designers to make a foundational contribution in a startup venture."
But Allen isn't preaching a gospel of "designers can do everything by themselves." Business is about profitability, engineering is about feasibility, and design is about desirability — and all three specialties need to overlap in a successful startup. "I'm talking particularly about consumer tech, where the user experience and the brand is so important for differentiating from all the other crap," he asserts. "And that's what designers should be good at."
"Most startups fail because they make things that people don't actually want!"
Allen also takes pains to note that the Designer Fund is meant as a complement, not a competitor, to established startup incubators and seed funds. "I hope to position the D.Fund as accelerator agnostic," he explains. "We can help direct them to Ycombinator, Greylock, and other networks to get their business off the ground, while also demystifying jargon about getting incorporated, and other things that can seem intimidating. We're primarily offering mentorship, and some angel investor money from designers like Christina Brodbeck, Dave Morin, Ben Blumenfeld, Scott Belsky, and Michal Kopec, just to give someone a runway. But the network is the most important thing."
The Designer Fund's application cycle runs its course every three to four months, and Allen purposefully timed it to sync up with key dates at other tech incubators. The first two startups in the Designer Fund pilot program, Storytree.me (think a for-profit version of StoryCorps) and Culturekitchensf.com (The Food Network meets low-income immigrant women), were advised by IDEO founder David Kelly and are now part of the 500 Startups accelerator, which Allen co-founded.
For Allen, a designer himself (he trained at the Institute of Design at Stanford), the Designer Fund isn't about drawing lines in the sand about what design (and designers) are or aren't. "It's breaking down these artificial barriers. That label, 'designer,' simply articulates the founder's intention to create systems and experiences that persuade people to do something. That will be the best indicator of who they are, not their titles or methods or definitions. If design is so important to startups, let's lead and model these behaviors — and its impact will speak for itself."

Another great weekend of Heineken Cup rugby, featuring a whole selection of exceptional performances. Here, are the best bits:
Ulster run riot to set up a classic in Clermont
Ulster produced a performance to be proud of in Belfast on Friday with a thumping win over Leicester Tigers, managing to rack up an unexpected bonus point in the process. Standout performances from winger Chris Gilroy, Darren Cave in the centre and the magnificent Stephen Ferris & Dan Tuohy in the pack paved the way as Leicester struggled to cope with the physicality of the game.
The more frustrated Leicester became, so went their discipline and larger gaps appeared in their defence. The lack of reaction from Ed Slater as Paul Marshall scampered away for the all important fourth try said it all. They were constantly battling to keep up with the hosts, and when enough energy had been beaten out of them, the gaps were exploited. Man of the Match Andrew Trimble was also in excellent finishing form, grabbing a brace in the tightest of spaces. It means they go into Round 6 top of Pool 4 as they travel to Clermont, who completely thrashed Aironi 82-0 running in 12 tries.
Their Irish rivals Leinster & Munster both sealed qualification to the quarter-finals with respective wins against a spirited Glasgow Warriors outfit and second-string Castres side. Leinster are the top seeds and will probably remain there given that they face Montpellier on home turf next weekend.
Saracens move a step closer as Quins leave it late against Gloucester
Saracens put themselves in pole position to qualify from Pool 5, travelling to Italy next week knowing that a win will guarantee their progress to the knock-out stages. Despite some flashes of brilliance from Dimitri Yachvili in the second half, Biarritz kicked away too much possession, and it cost them. Saracens defence was impressive, cutting in to prevent the ball going wide to the hands of Ngwenya, Brad Barritt in particular causing some damage. The quality of their squad shone through, with John Smit, Man of the Match Alex Goode and Mouritz Botha producing touches of class.
Harlequins also kept their chances of qualification alive thanks to a fortunate bounce of the ball, with Mike Brown pouncing after Charlie Sharples was left stumped by Danny Care's low kick through. Nick Evans seemed to have misplaced his kicking boots, following on from Rory Clegg's problems against Exeter and Northampton, but managed to rack up enough points to guarantee the win. This was Gloucester's best performance at The Stoop for some time, making amends for their 42-6 pasting earlier in the season. Credit to Matt Hopper for a top finish.
Finally in Pool 2, Cardiff look set to win their group after victory against London Irish in Reading, with Sam Warburton's try the only one of the game. Edinburgh have kept it interesting though, snatching a very late win in Paris against Racing Métro thanks to Phil Godman's late drop goal, capping an excellent performance.
Challenge Cup Pools still wide open ahead of final round
Progression to the knockout stages remains uncertain for those teams at the top of their Pools in the Amlin Challenge Cup. The biggest margin between the sides in first and second place is in Pool 1 where Stade Français are four points ahead of Worcester. With some big fixtures coming up in Round 6 to decide qualification, including Stade against Worcester, Exeter versus Perpignan and Sale Sharks having to win against Brive at home on Thursday, it remains all to play for.
Try of the Weekend goes to Timoci Nagusa of Montpellier. A clever chip kick from scrum-half Julien Tomas landed perfectly in the winger's arms as he strolled over to win the game against Bath.
Phil Godman is this week's Hero following his late drop goal to win the match for Edinburgh in Paris, coming off the bench to give his side a narrow 27-24 away win against Racing Métro.
The villains this week are definitely the whole of the Aironi side. Clermont are a fantastic team with a lot of quality, but conceding 12 tries, including four after 25 minutes, is unacceptable.

FOS (Fructooligosaccharides)
General Description
Fructooligosaccharides (FOS) are natural sugars that are used as food by healthful bacteria in the gut. The body cannot digest FOS; instead, they are utilized in the gastrointestinal tract by active beneficial bacteria, known as probiotics, such as acidophilus and bifidus. These bacteria aid in digestion and help to maintain a balanced gastrointestinal ecosystem. Most of the health benefits of FOS are related to their ability to stimulate acidophilus and bifidus bacterial growth. In addition, FOS is sometimes used in place of sucrose as a food sweetener.
Food Sources
Good sources of FOS are onions, garlic, asparagus, Jerusalem artichoke, various fruits, and herbs such as chicory.
Health Applications
- Beneficial bacterial support (as described above)
There is no RDI for fructooligosaccharides. There are no known side effects from large intakes of FOS.

My dream vacation is to tour Alaska in my motor home in three or four years following my retirement. I am planning to do a three-month trip. Juneau was not in my plans until I read about the possibility of a highway from Skagway to Juneau, and then it interested me because of the opportunity to drive there. The time factor of a ferry plus the expense of gas to drive that distance just wasn't appealing to me.
I can't tell you how much it would improve the economy with the added tourist trade that it would provide, but I know it would improve by two in the near future. A friend drove a motorcycle to Skagway and caught the ferry back to Seattle. He didn't stay in Juneau. I love to drive. If I want to ride a boat, I'll take a cruise.

To the editor:
There is no viable source providing information that gay or lesbian parents will be harmful to children. Foster children are products of a heterosexual relationship. Where are those parents? Children need parents who will love and nurture them. Gay and lesbian couples obviously have warm hearts and can provide good homes. Hugs, food and someone who cares provide children with a tremendous amount of security. My wife and I are heterosexual with three children and see no problem with other combinations of parents providing a loving home.
Why do you think gay and lesbian couples cannot be warm, loving parents?

But, of course SMTP isn't stateless (if that's what you mean by "connectionless"). Offhand, I can't think of any IETF application protocols that are both stateless ansd based on the push model If you relax the layer 7 requirement and look at IP core protocols, that's another matter. One protocol that is an application layer protocol that supports stateless push is Health Level 7 (or just HL7, see http://www.hl7.org). I've developed a number of interfaces baseed on a request/reply semantic similar to HTTP, but there are messages such as Master File Notification (MFN) that are used to send unsolicited updates to tables (e.g., to record the fact that a patient has been admitted). There is an acknowledgement protocol (I send you an MFN, you then send me Commit Ack (CA) to tell me you have the message and then a Master File Acknowledgement (MFK) to indicate that it has been processed, but unlike SMTP, this doesn't occur in the context of a single "session"). === Gregory Woodhouse <email@example.com> System Design & Development +1 510 768 6862 -----Original Message----- From: Mark Nottingham [mailto:firstname.lastname@example.com] Sent: Thursday, August 29, 2002 7:36 AM To: firstname.lastname@example.com Subject: Re: Nature of Application Protocols! > Well, SMTP is definitely push.

Simulating life on Mars
Six researchers have spent four months on a Hawaiian lava field for a Mars simulation mission aimed at finding ways to relieve the boredom of deep space travel.
The main aim was to come up with new recipes to fight food fatigue and boost the morale of astronauts.
But, they also got to try out odour-free underwear and play with robotic pets.

Speed Read, Spell Well
Teach your brain to spell as a visual process. Become a faster reader by letting go of the auditory track in your brain that slows you down. This is great for adults and kids! Instantly turn yourself into a better speller. READING, RITING AND RYTHMATIC Bad spellers are made, not born. When you were young and your teacher made you sound out the words, your brain decided that spelling was an auditory task. Now as an adult, you try to spell by sounding out words, and it doesn't work. You learned to read and the teacher said, sound out the words. You did and further confused your brain. Slow readers are fighting the urge to read while an auditory track going on in their head. That very annoying voice sometimes reads along with you, and slows you down. Use this CD to become faster, more focused and more relaxed when you study, take tests or simply sit down to read a book. Here is what Kim said after she used this CD set: I listened to the 1st 2 tracks of the reading CD... and was so excited to read my new book, but... had to go back to editing... deadlines... you know how that goes, anyway I think there might be an added bonus that is unexpected. When I got back into the edit bay, it was really cool. I was able to really focus and wasn't distracted, and even though it was late and I was tired and had a million things on my mind, it didn't matter, the focus and concentration was definitely there. I was like whoa... I think that CD I just listened to made a big difference. I couldn't even remember what was on it, all I knew is that the information I was editing (interviews etc.), and the music video FX were all I was focusing on. It was like I was able to zero in on each aspect of what I was multi- tasking on individually and could really retain everything. So thanks Wendi, you made my night :)

Do you feel you have ADD?Stop your struggle with ADD.Focus and pay attention, and retain what you learn.If you feel that you have Attention Deficit Disorder or you feel unfocused and unable to remember what you read, this will change how your brain holds information.As you listen to the CD program you will notice that you start to have a sharper ability to recall information, and you think more in visual ways- the way people do who have a photographic memory.
so much for your hypnosis tapes. I have had writer's block for years
and couldn't focus at all about anything. Now I am soooo focused when
I work. It's a combination of your Memory Magic and Do It Now programs.
It is UNBELIEVABLE the difference it has made. It's like I'm another
human being all of a sudden!! I can sit and think for hours at a
time! I love it. I haven't been able to do this ever! I wish I had
these tapes when I was in third grade and spacing out the window in
class and getting in trouble for it all the time. I wish I'd had them
in college.
haven't even mentioned that my house is clean, my files are clean and
my taxes are paid. This is a shocking change. It's like the place has
been taken over by aliens! But, you know, in a good way...nice
I would love to see you make a tape just for writers and writer's block and writing creatively!
Thanks so much!
Thank You Wendi,
It was basically a one day course for my
workplace called "Nonviolent Crisis Intervention" training. We didn't
have much time to study except for a 5 minute review at the end.
It was like a memory test where he put
up the review on the board and then erased it. We had to fill out
about 25 questions afterwards. I filled them all out (and then some).
I had like 2 hours of sleep before the
course and was sooo tired (I don't drink coffee). Even though it was a
small test I was happy that I got perfect on it !
Take Care!
Let me start off by saying thanks
and WOW. I have NEVER in my life experienced anything like being in
deep hypnosis until I ordered some of your programs. I have tried a
few hypnosis recordings before but you are far and away the most
incredible hypnotic guide I have ever had the pleasure of
experiencing. I sink so deep so fast and wake up at the counting,
most of the time going so deep that I don't consciously remember
anything except getting into a forest and then I THINK getting onto a
beach with a cloud and spiral or something. other than that I'm open
and just accepting deeply whatever you say into my mind. I don't know
what you're saying but I do know that each time I hear your voice I go
DEEP and INSTANTLY. Your stress hypnosis and deep trance training are

Big Blue Links for Thursday:
– Another in the UK video profiles of the new football coaching staff. Above, Derrick Ansley follows Neal Brown, Bradley Dale Peveto and Jimmy Brumbaugh.
– Alysee Shelton of the Herald-Leader reports that UK has dismissed offensive lineman T.J. Jones from the team. The redshirt freshman was arrested in December on a weapons charge while in his hometown of Myrtle Beach, South Carolina.
– As you might expect there has been significant attrition since Mark Stoops arrived as UK's new football coach. The C-J's Kyle Tucker chronicles the revolving door.
– Tyre Brady tells Larry Vaught that he is a firm commitment to UK despite not getting a "Yahtzee" from the coaching staff. "I have seen the rumors about Kentucky not accepting my commit because they did not tweet out Yahtzee until a couple of hours later," said Brady. "The funny thing is that I committed at Kentucky on my visit in front of the coaches. Then they called my mom and told her how happy they were that I committed."
– Via video, ESPN discusses the impact of Kentucky's surprising year in football recruiting. The network talks with UK commit Mike Edwards.
– Chris Wilson of Yahoo Sports also writes on Kentucky's No. 1 recruiting ranking. He says, "When your program is as down as Kentucky's, Stoops needed something to point to as a recruiting pitch, and he got that during the spring game when over 50,000 fans turned out, good for the second best mark in the country. If you're a new coach needing to sell high school kids on a fan base ready to throw itself behind a potentially resurgent program, being able to point at that spring game can only help. (It also probably doesn't hurt to promise a chance at immediate playing time, something two-win teams can generally offer.)"
– Glenn Logan of A Sea of Blue writes on the media feud between Kentucky Sports Radio and Rivals over the use of "premium" material when it comes to football recruiting.
– Gary Parrish of CBS Sports picks Kentucky to win the SEC in basketball in 2013-14. He writes, "Does that mean UK will win every SEC title? No. Let's not forget about last season's disaster.But Calipari is operating at such a high level (and arguably an unprecedented level in the modern era) that it's hard to imagine him ever not having the SEC's best talent regardless of how many prospects leave school early for the NBA Draft, and having the best talent is typically the key to stacking wins. So good luck, everybody else."
– Looks like Michael Kidd-Gilchrist will play in the Las Vegas Summer League.
– Ryan Suckow of Cat Scratches looks at where Nerlens Noel might go in the NBA Draft. He writes, "Center might not be Cleveland's greatest need, but good centers are a valuable commodity in a game that lacks dominant big men. Drafting Noel would not only be a luxury for the Cavaliers, but it would give them a trading chip to help them add another piece to the puzzle for 2013-14 if they decided to take Noel. Noel, as you know, is coming off knee surgery, and is still rehabbing in Birmingham, Ala. He likely won't be ready to suit up for the team that drafts him until mid season. That's been part of the hesitance in committing to and investing in Noel as well."

Ducks fly into Joyce for last home game
Matt Lozar | Thursday, March 25, 2004
Another NIT game and another game with major implications for the Irish.
Notre Dame doesn't have any geographic connections to tonight's opponent Oregon, but coming out victorious over the Ducks gets the Irish two things – 20 wins for the fourth year in a row and a trip back to Madison Square Garden.
Add in the fact this game is undoubtedly the last at the Joyce Center this season, and once again, it's not a boring game in "that other postseason tournament."
"It's definitely been fun, that's because we are playing against great teams and players who don't want their season to end," Notre Dame guard Chris Thomas said. "It's great because we are one of the few teams still playing right now, and we are fighting to play another day."
After the frenzied atmosphere in Fort Wayne, Ind., Thomas feels the Irish are now ready to appreciate playing at home on a new level. Six losses at the Joyce Center this year lost the home-court advantage.
"It was wonderful to have 12,000 fans in ND shirts. We were in awe of the whole atmosphere," Thomas said. "Maybe we take our fans for granted, and sometimes they take us for granted because we don't come out and perform like it's a home-court all the time.
"Playing at Fort Wayne inspired us to give our fans our all."
Since this game is being played opposite the NCAA tournament, it won't be on national television and will keep these two teams in the shadows of the NCAA Sweet 16 games.
That's a major reason why the Irish want a win so badly. A win gets them two more games in front of the country for everyone to watch.
"For us, if we are able to get back to New York, there are only eight teams playing college basketball that week, all on national TV," Notre Dame coach Mike Brey said. "That will make a lasting impression on a lot of people, your fans, yourself, recruiting, all of those things.
"Every day I've come in, I've made a comment that a couple of more teams aren't playing, but we are still playing. You want to keep the focus on your program for as long as possible."
Getting that win tonight would allow seniors Torrian Jones and Tom Timmermans to complete their career with four 20-win seasons while wearing an Irish uniform. In those four years, winning has become more of a habit than a surprise, but Jones still appreciates each victory.
"I'm spoiled, every year I've been here I've gotten 20 wins. I'm really looking forward to getting a win tomorrow night and for my career to culminate," Jones said. "I'm looking forward to getting that 20th win, going back to New York and trying to win a championship with this team."
A lot has been said in the past few days about the Joyce Center crowd taking notes from the fans in Fort Wayne and being more energetic. Brey joked before practice Wednesday that he is sending buses for those Fort Wayne fans to get to South Bend and even said his wife would drive a couple of vans.
Whether or not any fans make the short trip to Notre Dame, Brey feels the hometown fans are ready.
"I think our Joyce Center fans have accepted the challenge the Fort Wayne fans put down the other night," Brey said. "I anticipate a great atmosphere. It's the last time to see this team, and I think people have appreciated what this group has done."

It hurts my heart so much when I read so much conspiracy theory junk about the Catholic church, or how society is against us.
On the church conspiracy theories: Don't we have faith in God? Or do we just want an excuse to bash the church? Are we worshiping an human institution and therefore we are always going to be upset, or disappointed, or angry at what we believe is going on. Isn't our faith based on Christ? And if that is true than why worry what the puny little human beings are doing?
Yes there are troubles in the Church: Its filled with Human Beings. We can leave the Church and say see ya later! or we can pray, work, fight for what is right within our Church.
On society going to h_ck in a hand basket, aren't we responsibility for how society is created or are we just sheep? If we don't like something vote to make a difference. If we don't believe that our vote will do anything, than pray for change, join an organization that fits our nature and work with them. WE CREATE SOCIETY. But here is the rub, so does everyone else, and we can only change our LITTLE corner of society; we have to let go of the thought that we are Omnipotent ones, that job is already taken.
As for me. I would believe that God is in his/her heave and all is right with the world.

UFC 136 Results: Does Gilbert Melendez Deserve the Next Shot at Frankie Edgar?October 9, 2011
Strikeforce lightweight champion, Gilbert Melendez and recent UFC 136 victor Frankie Edgar could be on a collision course.
The two fighters have excelled in their reign as champions of their respective promotions.
Melendez has seemingly dominated anyone and anybody that enters the cage with him under the Strikeforce banner.
Edgar has beaten B.J. Penn, twice and has avenged the only loss of his career against Gray Maynard. Even with his size disadvantage, Edgar has persevered through all odds including two back-to-back first round beatdowns by Maynard.
But the question here is the exciting and thrilling Melendez deserving of the next shot at Edgar?
Melendez is undoubtedly the No. 2 ranked lightweight in the world after Maynard's loss. Melendez is currently on a five fight win streak that includes: Shinya Aoki, Josh Thomson and most recently Tatsuya Kawajiri.
Who are the only two losses in his career? Thomson and Mitsuhiro Ishida. Both fights Melendez has avenged.
There is no competition left in Strikeforce and even with a possible title defense against Jorge Masvidal looming in the future, there is no one who can compete with Melendez in Strikeforce.
Melendez has shown the lesser competition has been no problem for him and the UFC should unify the titles and get Melendez over to the UFC. UFC president Dana White even said he was working on getting him over ASAP and with Edgar defending his title, maybe a fight in early 2012 wouldn't be a bad idea.

There is NO WAY the Titans franchise is going deep in the playoffs with him leading the way and even the dumbest of fans on this site know it. Turns out that neither McNair, O'Donnell, Volek, VY, Collins or Sam Bradford were being held back by Fisher. In fact, history tells us the opposite.

Despite reports, it appears that Lindsay Lohan is still single. Page Six is reporting that the actress is secretly dating the son of her Parent Trap mom, Natasha Richardson. Michael Neeson is also the son of Liam Neeson.
"They were together at a house party of one of Lindsay's stylist friends before Thanksgiving, and were together at Finale on Friday," the tabloid reported. "Lindsay was seen leading him into the women's bathroom, hand-in-hand."
The source added that, "Lindsay seems to have this thing for younger men at the moment."
But it appears there is no truth to the rumor. A rep for Neeson told Page Six that "it's not true." Lohan's rep said, "Lindsay is friends with Michael but they are not dating."
Neeson's mom, Richardson, starred with Lohan in The Parent Trap in 1998. She died in 2009 after hitting her head while skiing in Quebec, Canada.
Liam Neeson had previously said he doesn't want his kids around show business, and definitely doesn't want them to be actors.
"You go for an interview for a part and you're rejected for all sorts of things — you're too tall, or too Irish," Neeson told the Belfast-Telegraph. "It is a hard process to go through and I don't want my kids to have to feel that."
Lohan always seems to be the subject of new dating rumors, but it looks like she is single and loving it. While it's odd she was out at a club since she was released from her latest rehab stay back in October, she is reportedly focusing on her career, according to TMZ. It looks like the 90-day stint may have worked this time, and Lohan is actually focused on staying clean. She also spends three days a week shooting her docu-series for the Oprah Winfrey Network.

Every advanced researcher knows that benzodiazepine family of chemical agents has plenty of members that have been barely explored at all, but this is increasingly changing as new variations of research materials become available. The latest addition to the already broad spectrum of chemicals from this group is flubromazolam, a substance closely related to better known compounds such as triazolam, pyrazolam or flubromazepam. This research material can be ordered from EuChemicals online store, conveniently packaged in 0.25 mg pellets suitable for quick and reliable measurement during laboratory experiments. As with all other chemicals obtained from our website, high purity of the active ingredient contained in the pellets is guaranteed for every shipment.
This substance is officially known under its IUPAC name 8-bromo-6-(2-fluorophenyl)-methyl-4H-[1,2,4]triazolo[4,3-a][1,4]benzodiazepine,with a molecular formula C17H12BrFN4. Flubromazolam molecule was discovered to have 3 proton acceptors and 1 rotating bond, while molecular mass of the substance was found to be 370.02 g/mol. It can be expected that certain structural similarities with other benzodiazepines exist, but exact physical and chemical properties of flubromazolam are still unknown for the most part. Therefore, this benzodiazepine research product must be regarded as largely untested and handled with maximal care before and during the experiments.
Flubromazolam pellets purchased from EuChemicals website can be freely used for controlled scientific research under laboratory conditions in the UK and most other jurisdictions without any additional licenses. However, please note that the substance is intended exclusively for in vitro experiments and that any other use would be both illegal and dangerous. Our online store can't be held responsible for any legal consequences arising from improper use of research materials by customers who order them.

Thus, when the response comes back, it cannot find any net object responsible for this response from the host's pipeline. In my code, the problem can be fixed by adding: if (!host->pipeline) host->pipeline = HTList_new(); HTList_addObject(host->pipeline, net); However, I'm not sure if it's www-lib's bug or mine, since I'm modifying the library myself.

Buying fabric online
I'm struggling to find good online fabric shops. Specifically, I'm looking for a fabric to make this dress…
..for a wedding. I'd love it in either rich, dark blue or the same emerald green but can't find a thing!

Try googling for James Hare, Pongees, Henri Bertrand, and Beckforth Silks… They will all sell you really beautiful quality soft silk satin in a variety of colour and several different weights.
If you want a polyester budget alternative, look up Cheap Fabrics, eFabrics, Croft Mill, The Remnant House, Calico Lane, and Fabricland. I find with Fabricland that it's better to ring and order/ask for swatches. I send to do that with all the silk people as well.
I have dealt with all of these companies for years, and they are all excellent to deal with.
Someone else to try is BL Joshi UK Ltd, in Wembley. Again, look them up and phone them. Ask for Charlie and tell her I sent you. She'll get swatches in the post that day if you ring in the morning.

That is a bummer. Afraid I don't know of any that send to South Africa, but then I wasn't aware that they DON'T send there either. See if anyone answers you here but it may be better to post your question as a new one with the header "Online fabrics for South Africa" as it may not get spotted here :-)

Hi there www.fabricland.co.uk say this on their website:
'Ring us we want your business
we will send to most Countries 'no drama' we do not use pay pal'
If you pay for your fabric in advance and the company gets cleared payment, I'm sure these lovely people will help you, best of luck xx

got to be honest, i received appalling service with this company and the website showed fabric was instock when it wasnt. I wasted a lot of very valuable time phaffing about with them but maybe that was a one off.
revised i had poor service with myfabrics
Feb 3, 2012, 08.41 PMby Delphina14
Which? Fabricland or myfabrics? Fabricland are not the best I agree. I visited their shop in Brighton once and a lot of fabric was not re-stocked, esp linen. However, I find myfabrics very reliable and excellent prices, plus delivery is ony £5.95.
Feb 2, 2012, 09.45 AMby sewingfan1
Plus I've just discovered Truro Fabrics who have a great range, great service and they even include a reel of matching thread with your order which I thought was a great idea :-) cheapfabrics.co.uk is another site I've used a lot. Haha, all these sites to check out, (the ones recommended above are really good too) can be VERY dangerous. The numebr of times i've taken a peek just to browse and broken all my resolutions and ended up buying something :-) I know that cheapfabrics.co.uk does a good range of colours in silk crepe which i think would be suitable (although you'd need to line it too). I bet it would work in silk jersey too. They have an almost idententical emerald green colour in duchess satin on cheapfabrics website

"They kept asking me over and over again whether I was having a romance with Hitler. 'Are you Hitler's girlfriend?' I laughed and answered the same way each time: 'No, those are false rumors. I only made documentaries for him…" — Leni Riefenstahl, about her 1938 US tour, in A Memoir
She was Hitler's favorite director. She was beautiful and talented. She was a woman in a man's field. Three strikes and you're out.
Leni Riefenstahl (REEF-en-shtal) was never able to shed the historical contamination that attached to her during the last half of her 101 years. Despite (some say because of) her demonstrated talent as actor, dancer, director, cinematographer, and still photographer, Riefenstahl could not shake off her Third Reich associations. Although her films have had enormous impact on world cinema and even television sports coverage, the woman herself found it difficult to gain public respect. Her attempt to revive her directorial career in the 1950s proved futile. The often-imitated, seldom-honored artist remained a controversial and unrepentant pariah up until her death on 8 September 2003. Ironically, her own well-crafted black-and-white motion-picture images of Hitler, Nazi pageantry, and the Jesse Owens Olympics helped keep both her genius and her past alive. In the words of Ray Müller, director of the documentary The Wonderful, Horrible Life of Leni Riefenstahl, "Her talent was her tragedy."
Riefenstahl's story begins in the Wedding district of Berlin, near the start of the twentieth century. Her father, Alfred Riefenstahl, was a prosperous businessman dealing in heating and ventilation. Her mother, Bertha Sherlach, had been a part-time seamstress before she married. Their first child, Helene (Leni) Bertha Amalie Riefenstahl, was born on August 22, 1902 in the family's apartment on Prinz-Eugen-Straße in Berlin. Leni's younger brother, Heinz, was born three and a half years later. He would later die in Hitler's war at age 38 on the Russian front.
"Mountain of Destiny"
Young Leni grew up in Berlin and lived at home until she was 21. Against the wishes of her father, she studied dance and was soon performing in Munich, Berlin, and Prague. But according to her memoirs, the course of her life was changed dramatically one day as she was waiting for a subway train at the Nollendorfplatz station in Berlin.
In a daze, thinking about the whirlwind of her dance appearances over the last six months, Riefenstahl could feel the pain in her injured knee that was threatening to end her dancing career in its early stages. She was on her way to yet another doctor, trying to find one who could finally put her back on her dancing feet. Her gaze happened to fall upon an advertising poster on the wall opposite the platform. Suddenly the image of a man climbing a jagged mountain came into focus. The colorful poster was promoting a movie with prophetic name Berg des Schicksals ("Mountain of Destiny"). Its letters further spelled out the words: "Ein Film aus den Dolomiten von Dr. Arnold Fanck" ("A film from the Dolomites by Dr. Arnold Fanck"). The picture was currently playing at a nearby cinema.
Riefenstahl stood in a trance, staring ahead blankly as her train came into the station and departed without her. Instead of going to the doctor, she left the station and soon found herself in a completely different world watching vivid, lifelike images of majestic mountains. Dr. Fanck's Berg des Schicksals held her so much in its spell that the young woman returned for repeat viewings every night for a week. It was the beginning of her own mountain film destiny and a new career as both film actress and director.
Amazingly, Riefenstahl got her first acting role in the film, Der heilige Berg ("written for the dancer Leni Riefenstahl"), directed by Dr. Arnold Fanck, only 18 months after that fateful day at the Nollendorfplatz U-Bahn station. Within weeks of seeing Fanck's Mountain of Destiny she had happened to meet the director himself in Berlin. Following a successful operation on her knee, Riefenstahl met with Fanck at his home in Freiburg near the Black Forest. Soon she would be appearing in movies directed by Fanck and co-starring Luis Trenker. Her dream was coming true, but the day would come when she regretted having ever met either of these two men.
After appearing in several films, Riefenstahl turned to directing—remarkable for a field so dominated by men, then as now. An admirer by the name of Adolf Hitler asked her to film a documentary of his Nazi party's rally in Nuremberg, and the rest is indeed history.
Following her success with Triumph des Willens, in 1936 Riefenstahl was put in charge of filming the Berlin Olympics, a project that was no minor undertaking. For Olympia she had to manage a total crew of 60 cinematographers, who used three different types of black-and-white film stock—Agfa (architectural shots), Kodak (portraits), and Perutz (fields, grass)—to shoot over 1.3 million feet of film (400,000 meters, over 248 miles). In the process, Riefenstahl invented or enhanced many of the sports photography techniques we now take for granted: slow motion, underwater diving shots, extremely high (from cranes/towers) and low shooting angles (from pits), panoramic aerial shots, and tracking systems for following fast action. The editing alone took her a year and a half to complete. The result is considered a classic cinematic masterpiece. The four-hour long (two-part) epic Olympia premiered at Berlin's UFA Palast am Zoo cinema on Hitler's birthday, April 20, 1938.
Riefenstahl Visits the United States
"This film was pivotal in my life, not so much because it was my first successful effort as a producer and director, but because Hitler was so fascinated by this film that he insisted I make a documentary about the Party rally in Nuremberg. The result was Triumph of the Will." — Leni Riefenstahl, about her film The Blue Light, in A Memoir
In 1938 Riefenstahl embarked on a trip to America, including Hollywood, to promote Olympia. The visit was marred by several factors, not the least of which was the infamous Kristallnacht — the Nazi burning of synagogues and the vicious persecution of Jewish shopkeepers in Germany on November 9.
No less disruptive for Riefenstahl's US tour were the efforts of the Anti-Nazi League as well as a spy in her own entourage, one Ernst Jäger, who turned out not to be the loyal colleague Riefenstahl thought he was. Too late she would discover that it was Jäger who helped sabotage her efforts to arrange the US distribution of her award-winning Olympia documentary.
For her Hollywood stay Riefenstahl booked a bungalow at the Beverly Hills Hotel. Despite a hostile press and the billboard equivalent of "Leni Go Home!," the world's most famous (or infamous) female director gained an audience with Walt Disney, although he did refuse her offer of a private showing of Olympia. He was just too afraid of a possible boycott of Disney films. Other studio heads treated her like the pariah she had become, refusing to see her at all. An invitation to meet with Gary Cooper was suddenly and "regretfully" cancelled. Even Disney would later make the unconvincing claim that he hadn't known who Riefenstahl really was.
However, Riefenstahl did finally manage to arrange a private screening of Olympia for an exclusive audience of some 50 press people and Hollywood insiders, some of whom felt compelled to sneak into the darkened theater incognito. Despite the Riefenstahl boycott, the press reviews for Olympia were enthusiastic. The Los Angeles Times wrote: "This picture is a triumph of the camera and an epic of the screen. Contrary to rumor, it is in no way a propaganda movie, and as propaganda for any nation, its effect is definitely zero." Such praise notwithstanding, the Third Reich-tainted Olympia never found a US distributor, and a dejected Riefenstahl sailed back to Germany. It must have been very depressing to know that the sneaky Herr Jäger had betrayed her. And, despite his assurances to the contrary, Jäger was not aboard for the return voyage. Riefenstahl's betrayal was doubly painful, since she had gone out of her way to have Jäger accompany her to America, against the protestations of Minister of Propaganda Joseph Goebbels, who had earlier kicked Jäger (whose wife was Jewish) out of the Reich Literature Chamber.
Postwar Years in Germany
The Denazification Ordeal
Following the war in 1945, Riefenstahl had to face Allied charges that she was a Nazi or a Nazi sympathizer. Her close ties to Hitler and her propaganda films, most notably Triumph of the Will, made her an obvious target. She endured post-war chaos and was imprisoned (and escaped!) three times trying to get to her mother's house in Austria where she was reunited with her husband and arrested again—not once but twice. This time she sat in a real prison as a guest the Seventh American Army, in the company of people like Hermann Göring and Sepp Dietrich (of the SS). But after her interrogation the Americans officially "denazified" Germany's most notorious film director and released her "without prejudice" on June 3, 1945.
A relieved Riefenstahl returned to her film library and editing suite in Kitzbühel in the Austrian Tyrol, where she had moved during the war to avoid Allied bombing in Germany and to continue her work on the long-delayed Tiefland, which she had begun in 1940. But she had not reckoned on the French. The Americans were leaving Tyrol, which was to become part of the new French occupation zone. Despite being advised to move to the American zone, Riefenstahl was reluctant to move her massive film library (including the Olympia negatives) and she believed that her American denazification was valid for all the Allied powers.
That proved to be a mistake. Before long Riefenstahl found herself under arrest once again, this time by the French. They decided to move Riefenstahl to the French zone in Germany, where she ended up in the bombed-out ruins of Breisach near Freiburg. Her old "friend" there, Dr. Fanck, refused to have anything to do with her, and she and her husband lived under house arrest in Breisach and later in Königsfeld in the Black Forest. Eventually Riefenstahl was placed in an insane asylum in Freiburg for three months before her release in August 1947. But it was not until July 1949 that she was officially denazified by a French tribunal. Even that "final" decision was appealed by the French military government and the matter was closed six months later when the Baden State Commissariat classified Riefenstahl in absentia as a "fellow traveler."
But Riefenstahl was far from free. Freedom and partial denazification did not mean she could resume her career as a director, and she had more legal trials ahead of her. The French were still holding all the film material taken from her house in Austria. Even her marriage was falling apart. To top it all, her attempts to get her Tiefland film back from the French were now being hindered by the release of a so-called "Eva Braun Diary" (a fraudulent precursor of the later and equally bogus "Hitler Diary"), the work of Luis Trenker, a former co-star with Riefenstahl in several films, now turned director and con-artist. As is usually the case, a court ruling that the Eva Braun diary was a fabrication failed to stop the false rumours and innuendo the diary had produced. In a bizarre twist, Riefenstahl received an unsolicited affadavit of support from none other than her former foe Ernst Jäger.
The Nazi Pin-up Girl
Although she scouted film locations in Africa (where she had a bad car accident and almost died) and had serious plans to make other films (one titled "The Red Devils"), it was not to be. Riefenstahl encountered resistance and protest from too many quarters. There was almost no prospect of getting a Riefenstahl film shot, much less shown in most of the world. So, she did the next best thing; she took up still photography.
She lived for a time with the native Nuba tribe in Africa, recording images that have appeared in several photographic essay books. She took up scuba diving in 1970s at the age of 72, and continued underwater photo work into her 90s.
To her dying day controversy surrounded Riefenstahl wherever she went and wherever her work was displayed. In March 1946, even before the French threw her into an insane asylum, Budd B. Schulberg wrote an article about Riefenstahl for the Saturday Evening Post. Its title was a taste of things to come: "Nazi Pin-up Girl: Hitler's No. 1 Movie Actress."
An exhibit of Riefenstahl's movie stills and her African and underwater photographs in Hamburg in late 1997 brought out a whole new generation of protesters. Their signs read: "Now showing: Nazi exhibition" and "No commercializing of fascist aesthetics." First published in the 1970s, not even her still photographs of naked Nubians have been immune from controversy. Critics somehow managed to see fascist tendencies in Riefenstahl's images of African natives—a race deemed inferior by the Nazis.
The 1993 film documentary about Riefenstahl by Ray Müller, The Wonderful, Horrible Life of Leni Riefenstahl, is available on DVD. It's a fascinating, if somewhat long (188 min.), look at her films and her point of view. The original German title better conveys the thrust of Müller's film: Die Macht der Bilder ("The Power of Images").

CNET Update
Twitter working on a music appTwitter wants to be your tool for discovering new music, Google Now may come to the iPhone, and each HTC One takes a long time to make.
-It's time to sing along with Twitter. I'm Bridget Carey and this is your CNET Update. CNET has learned that Twitter is building its own music app. Twitter bought the music discovery service called "We Are Hunted" and Twitter is using that technology to build an app called "Twitter Music." It would suggest artists and songs to listen to based on who you follow on Twitter. This means Twitter is taking steps to become a media company. It's no secret that music artists are popular on Twitter, but now, Twitter wants to be a home for discovering music. And if you remember, Facebook's redesign now has its own music newsfeed. So, they say Facebook wants to be like Twitter and Twitter wants to be like Facebook, but everyone wants to be more of a music service like MySpace. Wooh, it's all coming full circle. So, maybe, that report on Samsung Galaxy S4 having eye-tracking technology was not correct. Bloomberg has a report saying that the eye-tracking technology probably won't be in the S4 at launch, but maybe, it will be in a software update in the future. But if there's no eye-tracking technology, then what else will Samsung show off to wow us? Watch the phone unveiling live at CNET on Thursday at 4 p.m. Pacific, 7 p.m. Eastern. No matter what Samsung shows off, expect a flood of ads to follow. That's because a recent report shows Samsung spends more than Apple in marketing. You've seen the memorable ads about how the iPhone is for uncool parents, but Samsung also pours in money to things like a random top dancing performance in Times Square. All that marketing muscle spells trouble for brands like HTC. It has a pretty good phone with the HTC One, but it's going to need to do more to get notice against Samsung. The HTC One was thought to launch some time next week, but HTC says it's facing shipment delays. People might not see this in stores until April. Maybe, it has something to do with the fact that the supercool, all-aluminum body takes more than three hours to put together. Yeah, each one. The Google Now app may soon be coming to Apple devices. A video about Google Now for iOS was posted on YouTube and was quickly taken down, but the folks at Engadget were sly and reposted it. Google Now is a feature of Android 4.1 Jelly Bean. It taps into your calendar, e-mail, news, and location, and after learning about your habits, it will send you notifications that are relevant to your life, like, if there's heavy traffic on the route you take to work. Isn't it nice of Google to offer this app to iPhone users? You would think Google would want to keep this feature as something exclusive to Android phones. After all, you don't see Apple making Siri apps for any other phone. That's your tech news update. You can find more details at CNET.com/update. From our studios in New York, I'm Bridget Carey.

Wikipedia set to unveil new features
Over the next few days, Wikipedia will be getting a substantial face lift.
The biggest change the online encyclopedia will make is a changeover to a new "skin" called Vector. The difference between its current design and Vector aren't significant, but it's enough of a change that it might take some getting used to for those that don't take kindly to site changes.
A key component in that redesign is an improved navigation for both reading and editing pages. Users will find more stylish tabs at the top of each Wikipedia page telling them whether they're viewing a document or a discussion page. It will also remind them if they're reading or editing a respective entry.
It has also improved the search-suggestion feature to reportedly make it more reliable. The goal, Wikipedia said, is to get users to the "page [they] are looking for more quickly."
Those that edit Wikipedia entries will find an updated editing toolbar as well as the ability to more efficiently format pages. It has also added a "Link wizard" to include links in wikis.
All the changes, including Wikipedia's new skin, will be rolled out over the next few days. Based on user reactions to the improvements, Wikipedia plans to update the site again later this year with other improvements.
For those that want to try something new, Wikipedia has a prototype page available that allows users to click around and see all the new changes before they go live on the site.

The cursor disappears and no screen updates occur. I can still ssh into the machine from elsewhere, and can see that most of it is running perfectly. The only way to clear this is to kill -9 the xserver from this ssh connection, at which point the screen springs into life. I don't know how to go about checking what might be the cause, there seems to be no obvious action on my part that causes this to happen.

At this point it's all but impossible to tell if the stock market's weakness is really all about Syria or of a dimming economic picture, potential disruption at the FOMC, or simple summer drifting. All traders can say for certain is the sell-off got much more interesting when the S&P 500 (^GSPC) lost over 1.5% and the NASDAQ (^IXIC) dropped more than 2% yesterday.
Since closing at a record high near 1,710 on August 2nd, the S&P 500 has lost 4.6%. The Dow Jones Industrial Average (^DJI) has dropped 5.6% in the same period. It's still a long way from the 10% loss required to fit the "official" definition of a correction, but anything more than 5% demands some attention.
To be sure the news flow has been disappointing. Despite decent economic data, the retailers reporting earnings over the last 2 weeks suggest Americans are reducing their spending. When Walmart (WMT) and Target (TGT) both miss earnings estimates and guide lower it's a bad sign. This is America. If we aren't spending money something is very, very wrong.

"It's Syria," is a pat explanation for caution but in terms of stocks it's far too simple. Traders play the odds. Based on prior international incidents the chances are good that the U.S. will lob a few token cruise missiles into Syria then back off. From a pure trading perspective Syria is a chance to buy the dips, not knowing the name of the next Fed chairman is reason to sell and hide. (In the real world Syria is much, much more important but we're talking money here).
Michael Cuggino of the Permanent Portfolio Family of Funds says there's not much to worry about, at least in terms of what the Fed is doing. The taper talk is hype from his perspective. It's not what particular tool the Fed is using; just knowing the Fed will be involved is sufficient proof that nothing has changed in regards to monetary policy.
Related: No Fed Taper Until New Year Means New Highs: Fahmy
The subtextual issue under all the Fed speak is that the FOMC is facing artificial deadlines in terms of timing when if anything the data has gotten slightly worse economically. Whether you regard QE as a triumph of creativity and genius, or an unprecedented folly, at least it's a known entity. With Bernanke's term coming to an end early next year, and the White House making noise about giving Larry Summers the nod to be the next Fed Chair, it would seem all bets are off regarding monetary policy.
In other words it's not about tapering, but about removing the markets' confidence that Bernanke would be "creative" in regards to dumping money into the system. The devil we know may be better than the surly academician we don't.
Then again, maybe this selling pressure is simply a reflection of a rally badly in need of a breather after 10-months of sprinting. We'll have a better read on how serious the market is about correcting next week when the grown ups get back from vacation.

Rome's obsession with obscure grape varieties and precise vintning has led to centuries of "wine snobbery" which continues to today. Standage states that this uber-sophistication led to the Muslim's rejection of wine.
"The close association between wine and sophistication in the ancient world contributed to its rejection by Muslims. With the rise of Islam in the seventh century, Mohammed's followers expressed their disdain for the previous ruling elites by replacing wheeled vehicles with camels, chairs and tables with cushions and by banning the consumption of wine. Being devout, they signaled, was more important than seeming sophisticated."

Cooking, it's the new rock 'n' roll don't you know.
Lost weekends in the mud and the filth of Glastonbury have been replaced by Hairy Bikers' cookbooks and recipes for South Indian masala fish curry.
You'd think that with all the effort you put in slaving over a hot stove making cracking dinners full of fresh meat and vegetables that your kids would lap it up and ask for more.
Who am I kidding? Last Sunday we made what we assumed (wrongly) would be a well received lunch of roast potatoes cooked in 1 Cal Fry Light, sea salt and freshly ground black pepper with sweet potato, carrot and low fat cream cheese mash and chicken baked in olive oil. Om nom nom.
When we presented it to our children, daughter #1 said: "Awwww, can't we just have normal food? Does it always have to be so Heston Blumenthal?"
If our daughters were allowed to eat McDonald's for breakfast, KFC for lunch and Burger King for tea then that would be marvellous, in their eyes.
In point of fact the film Super Size Me where Morgan Spurlock ate nothing but McD's for a month and was advised by a doctor part way through to stop because his diet was doing terrible things to his body, 10 years down the line the movie seems like some sort of aspirational wellness regime.
I have a question for the people of Lancaster who make dinner for their families every night. How many different meals can you cook without anyone whining like Concorde?
If I could be bothered to draw a Venn diagram of what everyone in our family eats without complaint I reckon the intersection would have nothing in it. Okay, maybe chips and dippy sauce.
Beautiful curries cooked from scratch with freshly chopped ginger, crushed cardamom pods, chillies, turmeric, cinnamon sticks, garam masala and coriander are greeted with the same facial expression from our kids as when they accidentally tread in what the greedier of our two cats has just yakked up.
The phrase "I'm not eating that" (pronounced with a silent s**t at the end) has been heard more than once after plonking the plate on a table accompanied by a grand "Ta dah!"

5 Ways to Change the Look of Your Couch Without Reupholstering
Yesterday, I was at my cousin's house. Are these the same couches? I asked. Her couches looked different but I couldn't pinpoint exactly why. She explained that, using the extra fabric she'd bought when she purchased them, she'd made a few small but significant changes that had given them a whole new look!
If you're ready to take the next step beyond just changing up accent pillows or want a change but are not quite prepared to buy a new sofa, enlist the aid of your upholsterer (or get handy yourself) to give your couch another chance. Using the same fabric that your couch is upholstered in, you can:
1. Add or remove a skirt: While exposed legs look unmistakably modern, covering up the legs by adding a fabric panel can make a sofa more formal or make it shabby chic casual. Or, remove the skirt on a couch to expose its legs and lighten it up.
2. Add or remove cushion buttons: An upholsterer can easily add buttons to the back, seat or both cushions of a couch to bring it from informal to more tailored. Removing buttons can relax the look of your sofa.
3. Add bolster pillows to a couch: Give a sleek modern couch a bohemian look by adding bolster pillows on either end made of the same fabric.
4. Take your couch from tight back to cushion back: If your couch has a tight back, try loosening up its streamlined vibe by adding 3 Euro-sized pillows across the back
5. Try a slipcover: You can buy a standard one or have your upholsterer tailor make one for your couch. I'm cosidering having one made out of white duck (along with cases for my couch's loose cushions) so that next summer I can quickly morph my sleek metal legged modern sofa into something beachy for summer.
How have you changed the look of your sofa in the past without having to buy a new one? Share your tips in the comments below!

It's 2016 so naturally I need to make some resolutions. The first couple are easy:
- Drink at LEAST as many glasses of water per day as glasses of wine.
- Cook more. Okay fine, cook at all.
But the main thing I'd like to accomplish this year is to cut myself some slack. Sometimes I let my family, my over-achiever friends, that skinny mom at school drop off who ALREADY went to pilates, get the best of me. And honestly, I'm sick of feeling like I have to defend the way I am. I'm not a fun mom, I'm not a mom who does crafts, I'm not a mom who bakes, and I'm really really not sorry. I'm a busy mom, and a working mom, and well-dressed mom (my kids will thank me later for that one), and I think that's perfectly fine.
You know what else? John does all of the above better than I do. He will even play dolls. WHAT IS WORSE THAN PLAYING DOLLS. Nothing. But he will do it and I won't. Mommy enjoys more task driven games… like cleaning. And organizing bookshelves. But I'M fine with that. And if my kids aren't, well there's nothing a Disney movie can't fix, amirite?
So for 2016, I'm vowing to not give a shit. I'm okay being me. Cheers, y'all.

This is simply not correct. Fruits, veggies, whole grain, nut products, dried beans as well as oils, many include proteins. Meats in fact has high levels of sodium, fat and salt, particularly in red meat which is not so healthy due to its high levels of cholesterol. Whole grain, nuts, oils, and dried beans in fact onsist of more proteins than in meat products. Your own body requires at least 25 grams of protein per day ,so it is obvious you do not haveto eat only meat to obtain your day-to-day allowance.

The celeriac noodle provided a great texture in juxtaposition to the softer purées, it was not all just mushy. It is important to not cook the celeriac too long, to keep the soft but firm texture. Each element had distinctive flavor that blended together to make a really comforting yet light dish. I added thyme and walnuts on top, which I think may be an important addition for complexity. Thank you Sarah!

I just have to share then that this one is really off the mark. I made it last week with high quality ingredients and the flavors just melted together and the texture was like baby food. We were careful with the celery root, but it didn't help. Unfortunately, I just composted a big portion of the leftovers. Just want to say to other readers out there, don't let this one discourage you. The other meals on this site are amazing.

Tasted best fresh and the leftovers were lackluster, unfortunately. My celeriac was very al dente, so I was reminded how to use a knife and fork. I haven't had to use them in ages. ;)janet @ the taste spacehttp://firstname.lastname@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4424680534400677366.post-48604720109357169532012-12-13T19:21:05.071+01:002012-12-13T19:21:05.071+01:00Agree with FatTailed that the textures of the two ...Agree with FatTailed that the textures of the two purees were too similar to be satisfying. I had one piece and didn't care to have another one -- I ended up removing the celeriac noodles, turning the whole thing into one big bean/butternut squash sauce, and then using it to become a butternut squash chili.

I still love you Sarah B but I thought this one was a little off the mark. email@example.com:blogger.com,1999:blog-4424680534400677366.post-81836669835374305752012-12-12T19:26:21.378+01:002012-12-12T19:26:21.378+01:00Celeriac as the "pasta layer" in lasagne...Celeriac as the "pasta layer" in lasagne is a keeper!

text: Hi, I suspect the gene construct I am studying is regulated by an as yet uncharacterized microRNA. To test this I would like to cross my transgenics to lines with mutations in dcl, hen and hyl mutants. From my reading, it is clear that there are lines with various mutantions in these genes with varying intensities (from lethal to nearly undetectable phenotypic effects). Thus, I am hoping to get some advice as to which mutant lines I should try first (and who I should ask to get the mutant lines if known). In case it is relevant, I see my construct expressed primarily in root and shoot tips, as well as at the base of tricombs. Any assistance will be greatly appreciated!
