Jay, I'm glad to hear you support the space program and that is neat that you worked on a component of the Mars Phoenix. I never believed if you took the money that went into the space race it would have been used to alleviate poverty - it was just a popular thing to say in that era.
I checked Wikipedia and found some interesting technologies that are considered space program spinoffs. Interestingly enough at the bottom they say Tang is one of the ones that has been mistakenly attributed as a NASA spin-off technology. I was also surprised to see MRI's beside Tang on that list. Still, the spin-off list is quite impressive.
The U.S.A did not send a man to the moon because they would see related beneficial technological breakthroughs. It was at war with an ideology that had a temporary lead in sending man into space.
If the Soviets hadn't put a man into space, teaching evolution in our schools might still be illegal.
I'm not kidding, America began spending on science and math education.
BTW, the money did alleviate poverty. I worked in the Apollo program and some of the money alleviated my poverty.
I will be voting on the 6th. I hate living in a red state. I feel as like I'm wasting my vote on who will be president. Really crossing my fingers for Obama. Four More Years! =)

US Kempo Team Wins big at
World Kempo Championships in Portugal!
US Team Wins 3rd Place Overall Team Cup!
Faro, Portugal
April 2-6, 2008
Robert Zingg, 52, of Harper's Ferry, WV, with fellow West Virginians Tyson Kellerman, 21, of Martinsburg and Eric Rozich, 16, of Charles Town, along with Brian Duffy, 55, of Austin, TX, Greg Duke, 37, of Ft. Worth, TX and Ray Gilbert, 38, of Joplin, MO, made up the entire United States Kempo Team which participated in the World Kempo Championship Tournament (WKC) in Faro, Portugal.
Kempo is a martial art similar to modern Karate in many ways, though much older. It is also akin to the grappling arts of Ju-jutsu, Judo and Wrestling. The techniques of Kempo cross the boundaries of the striking and grappling arts in a natural blend of styles and techniques.
Zingg, Kellerman, and Rozich practice the Toraken-ryu style of Kempo from Japan and the Tozan-ryu Kempo style from Okinawa. Duffy, Gilbert and Duke practice the Ed Parker American Kenpo System. [Various schools use either the 'n' or 'm' spelling of the word "Kempo" according to their traditions]. Mr. Duffy has a martial arts school in Austin, TX and Gilbert and Duke are his students. Mr. Gilbert owns a martial arts studio in Joplin, Mo., while Mr. Duke is a high school teacher and wrestling coach in Ft. Worth, TX. Kellerman and Rozich are students of Mr. Zingg, Kellerman having trained with Mr. Zingg since he was 6 years old. Mr. Kellerman attends Shepherd University and Mr. Rozich attends Jefferson High School. Duffy and Gilbert are veterans of the 2007 World Championships, while Mr. Kellerman was a member of the 2003 US Kempo Team along with Mr. Zingg.
The tiny US Team went head-to-head with some of the best and largest Kempo Teams in the world, and achieved the 3rd Place Overall Team Cup. The US Team consists of members from across the United States from many different Kempo schools and organizations. All styles of Kempo are welcome to tryout and join the team.
This year the US Team won a total of 8 Gold, 6 Silver, and 12 Bronze Medals in Individual and Team events. In the 3 prior World Championships the US Team won 15 Gold, 12 Silver, and 20 Bronze Medals. With this year's effort, it brings the US Teams totals to 23 Gold, 18 Silver, and 32 Bronze Medals.
Many of the other teams competing in the tournament were considerably larger than the United States Team. The Romanian Team, which won first place overall, consisted of 60 team members. The second place team, Portugal, consisted of 45 members. The United States Team consisted of only six members and achieved third place overall, quite an accomplishment.
The World Championship tournament is divided into two sections; "Traditional Divisions" and "Full-contact Sport Fighting".
Traditional Divisions include the Forms and Weapon Forms categories, which are choreographed solo or team fight sequences reminiscent of the floor exercises in gymnastics. Many of these Traditional Forms are hundreds of years old and are practiced in martial arts schools throughout the world. Empty Hand Self-Defense, Weapon Self-Defense, and Full-Contact Weapon Fighting, make up the rest of the Traditional categories.
The Sport Fighting Division is divided into 5 separate fighting styles, each with their particular rules and styles of combat;
1) Semi-Contact Kempo, a light, touch-point system, emphasizing speed and accuracy,
2) K-1 Kempo, stand-up only, full-contact kickboxing where no grappling is allowed,
3) Full-Contact Kempo – full-contact kickboxing with grappling, using boxing gloves,
4) Knockdown Kempo – bare knuckle full-contact kickboxing with grappling, similar to the popular MMA (mixed martial arts) contests being held throughout the US.
5) Submission Kempo - a grappling only style of fighting where the fighter wins by choking, or applying locks and holds on his opponent in order to force him to submit.
The US Team won 3rd Place Team Honors in the Traditional Events, behind Bulgaria who took 2nd and Romania who won the top spot at 1st place. The US Team finished 5th in the Sport Fighting Team Awards behind Portugal and Algeria, tied for 4th, France in 3rd, Romania in 2nd and Russia in 1st place.
When the Combined Scores of the Traditional and Sport Fighting Divisions were added together for the Overall Team Awards, Romania won 1st place, Portugal, 2nd and the United States, 3rd.
The WKC originally was held every two years, however, due to Kempo's increased popularity, starting this year the WKC will be held every year.
Mr. Zingg, the United States Team Leader, said "It was very gratifying to have the US Team do so well, as we [the US Kempo Team] had tremendous hardships to overcome in order to put a team together. Some of the other nation's teams are partially funded by their respective governments, through their Ministry of Sport, for example. Unfortunately for the US Kempo Team, our team members have to pay their own travel expenses to the World Championships at the present time, as sponsorships are difficult to come by. This is one of the reasons why the US Team is so much smaller than many of our European counterparts. Hopefully, with our team's strong showing here in Faro, we will be able to field a larger and even stronger team at next year's tournament in Nice [France]."
Mr. Zingg also said that team members who had planned to attend, but could not for various reasons, hailed from all over the Continental United States as well as Hawaii. If all had gone as planned no fewer than 25 members, from more than 12 states would have competed. Potential members coming from as far away as Hawaii, California, North and South Carolina, Georgia, Tennessee, Texas, Missouri, Maryland, New York, West Virginia and Virginia, had planned on attending.
Mr. Zingg, who won 3 Bronze Medals this year, was not even scheduled to participate. He had planned to retire from the competition to allow other up and coming team members to participate more fully, and had planned to concentrate on coaching, but due to members dropping out he stepped up and filled in their places. He is a veteran of the previous 3 events and has won a total of 8 Gold, 2 Silver and 4 Bronze medals in the World Championships. The other team members this year also stepped up and registered for extra events to increase the US Teams presence in the Championships.
Besides Mr. Zingg's 1 Individual and 2 Team Bronze medals, Mr. Duffy won 4 Silver and 1 Bronze Individual medals, as well as 1 Gold and 2 Bronze Team medals. Mr. Gilbert won 5 Gold and 1 Bronze Individual medals, and 1 Gold and 1 Team Bronze medals. Mr. Duke won 2 Gold and 3 Bronze Individual medals and 1 Gold and 2 Bronze Team medals. Mr. Kellerman won 2 Individual Silver medals and 1 Team Bronze medal, and Mr. Rozich won 3 Individual Bronze medals. This was Mr. Rozich's first ever martial arts tournament, he says he was a bit nervous about it, "Having the World Championships be the first martial arts tournament I have ever competed in was a bit un-nerving, but I figured if nothing else, I would learn a great deal. Boy, did I learn, I was up against some really tough, experienced fighters and I am all fired up to come back next year. I can't wait to get back home and start training".
This is the US Team's 4th trip to the World Championships and in each of the previous events the US has had small teams, ranging in size from 4 to 11 members. Some European teams like Romania and Hungary typically have as many as 75 –100 members. France, Russia, The Netherlands, Slovakia, and Portugal usually have teams in the 25 – 40 range. Other countries are similar. The US Team is currently solely supported by its members, their family and friends.
Mr. Zingg said that the level of competition has been increasing greatly in each subsequent World Championship. The teams of Russia, Romania, Hungary, France, the Netherlands, Portugal, and Slovakia are very powerful and have many of the best Kempo fighters in the world. The US has many equally qualified Kempo fighters but due to the lack of sponsorships it is difficult to get potential members on the team.
The next World Kempo Championship Tournament is being held at the end of April 2009, in Nice, France. Despite their small size this year, Mr. Zingg is confident the USA can put together a team of over 50 members for the next World Championship, "After all," he says, "when Americans put their minds to something, it happens."

Unsafe Off Road Trucks - Don't Build Like This!Posted in How To on August 1, 2010
Before I start, let me just say that I am not singling out, nor blackballing any company. And in fact this type of truck is the fault of either the truck owner or the shop that modified it. But it absolutely turns me red when I see something like this rolling down the highway. In this particular case, a poor guy who knew nothing about trucks bought this used, pre-built truck from a car dealer. It was probably at the dealership because the last owner quickly realized how crappy it drove and traded it in on something decent. I have no knowledge as to who originally built this truck, nor do I know (or want to know) where this package came from. All I know is that if we do not regulate ourselves within the off-road industry, you can be sure that the government will eventually step in and do it for us. And I can promise you that no company, nor enthusiast, will like the government's way of doing things. I think that a little education and more (industry) internal regulation can stop vehicles like this from ending up on the roads.
This pictured scenario is the result of someone trying to fit giant tires onto an inadequate platform (inadequate to accept such a large tire) and mixing a variety of methods to do so. The big problem is that doing things like combining lifts and adding spacers and wide-offset wheels can allow a builder to fit a tire that is clearly too big for the suspension, drivetrain, brakes, and steering to handle. At that point, the vehicle becomes unsafe to drive. That may be okay for a show truck, but not for a street-driven rig.
This is not to say that large tires are dangerous, by the way! One-ton Dodge or Ford trucks are more than capable of handling the same size tire that's adorning this compact truck. But that's because they have much larger drivetrain, steering, braking, and suspension components that can handle the added load that a large tire puts on a truck.
Do you know how I came across this particular truck? The front 2WD unit bearing's studs had broken off and allowed this truck to hit the ground, knuckle first, and ground part of the knuckle off. A tow truck brought it straight to my friend's shop to see what he could do. The scared owner had no clue that the truck he had just bought a week before was unsafe. And now, with little money left in his pocket, he doesn't know what to do.
Please do everyone (including me, my staff, and the entire off-road community) a giant favor and help keep unsafe truck builds off the road. If you see one, don't be afraid to help educate the owner a little bit. The chances are that he/she has no idea how unsafe the vehicle really is; otherwise he/she wouldn't be risking his/her own neck in it. Unsafe trucks are not lost causes, but they do need to be fixed by either installing smaller tires, adding larger components, or fixing whatever is built incorrectly.

Sometimes it is hard for me to be happy for people.
I'm getting better, but when my friends are growing and expanding their lives in new and different ways, it's hard for me to see that them growing doesn't necessarily mean hey are growing away from me.
So my lesson of late is to be there for my close friends as they buy exciting new houses (if any of you need me, I will be living in my friend Ketta's kitchen because it's AMAZEBALLS) and prepare to bring another life into the world, or move clear across the country to pursue exciting opportunities.
It doesn't mean I love them any less because they are doing things I am financially/physically/geographically incapable of doing.
It also doesn't mean they love me any less.
So I will keep loving them in my own bizarre way (which involves funny emails, occasional random phone calls and forgetting to text back as well as showing up on their doorstep with food when they're sick) and accept their love in return.
Because I am worthy of awesome friends, and am truly happy for their growth.

2014 Report Cards: Senate Republicans
These statistics dissect the legislative records of Members of Congress during the 113th Congress (Jan 3, 2013-Jan 2, 2015), as of Jan 12, 2015.
Look at report cards for...
- All Representatives (441)
- Safe House Seats (397)
- House Republicans (234)
- House Democrats (207)
- Serving 10+ Years (House) (177)
- All Senators (100)
- House Freshmen (84)
- House Sophomores (82)
- Serving 10+ Years (Senate) (54)
- Senate Democrats (53)
- House Cmte. Chairs/RkMembs (45)
- Senate Republicans (45)
- Competitive House Seats (44)
- Senate Cmte. Chairs/RkMembs (41)
- Senate Freshmen (17)
- Senate Sophomores (13)
Laws Enacted
The number of bills each legislator introduced that became law in the 113th Congress. Keep in mind that it takes a law to repeal a law. Very few bills ever become law.
A bill or joint resolution is considered enacted if it or an exactly identical bill to it is enacted as law. We only consider bills that the legislator was the primary sponsor of. While a legislator may lay claim to authoring other bills that became law, such as through incorporation into larger bills, these cases are difficult for us to track quantitatively.
Additional Notes
The Speaker's Votes: Missed votes are not computed for the Speaker of the House. According to current House rules, the Speaker of the House is not required to vote in "ordinary legislative proceedings." In practice this means the Speaker of the House rarely votes but is not considered absent.
Leadership/Ideology: The leadership and ideology scores are not displayed for Members of Congress who introduced fewer than 10 bills, or, for ideology, for Members of Congress that have a low leadership score, as there is usually not enough data in these cases to compute reliable leadership and ideology statistics.
Missing Bills: We exclude bills from some statistics where the sponsor's original intent is not in the final bill because the bill's text was replaced in whole with unrelated provisions (i.e. it became a vehicle for passage of unrelated provisions).
Ranking Members (RkMembs): The chair of a committee is always selected from the political party that holds the most seats in the chamber, called the "majority party". The "ranking member" (sometimes "RkMembs") is the title given to the senior-most member of the committee not in the majority party.
Freshmen/Sophomores: Freshmen and sophomores are Members of Congress whose first term (in the same chamber at the end of the 113th Congress) was the 113th Congress (freshmen) or 112th (sophomores). Members of Congress who took office within the last few months of a Congress are considered freshmen in the next Congress as well.

Touch sensitive sensors
ifm's KT Series Capacitive Touch Sensitive Sensors are designed to be used as machine start/stop buttons in the industrial automation, mobile and building automation industries. The sensor's ergonomic design allows the sensor to be actuated with a hand or single finger. Optical feedback is provided by switching status LEDs. The robust polycarbonate housing is durable, oil resistant, impact and scratch resistant and carries an IP69K NEMA rating. The sensors provide an alternative to mechanical switches that may have a high rate of wear and tear.
ifm's KT Series touch sensors use capacitive technology for start and stop actuation. The KT Series sensors are available with one of two sensing principles: dynamic and static.
Static touch sensors detect hands and objects for as long as the sensing face is damped. This is particularly useful in two-hand control or anti tie-down applications. Static touch sensors also work through glass. Compared to mechanical switches, the sensors operate without wear, and because they react to light contact, no pressure is required for actuation.

Michigan State CB Chris Rucker got drunk and backed his car into another vehicle. It's the kind of thing that happens all the time, except for the part about the vehicle's owner, an MSU student, pleading with police to let Rucker go.
Early on the morning of Oct.10, Michigan State cornerback Chris L. Rucker backed into another car in a 7-Eleven parking lot and was arrested after recording a .095 blood-alcohol level on a breath test.
About a half-hour later, Rucker and the car's owner had struck up a friendly conversation as he was sitting in the back of a police vehicle, and the owner pleaded with two officers to set Rucker free, thinking he was under arrest for the wreck.
"If I don't press charges, could you let him go?" asked Patrick Weaver, an MSU junior and the car's owner.
Weaver now claims he didn't know Rucker was a football player, and that he just felt bad for him. That would be more believable if East Lansing didn't have a history of going easy on its athletes, and if this wasn't so common at big sports programs.
Baylor guard LaceDarius Dunn's girlfriend denied that he hit her, even denied that she had a broken jaw at all, despite the fact that she had emergency surgery to put two metal plates in her jaw.
And lest you think it's the age-old story of a domestic violence victim not wanted charges pressed, the girlfriend's father also called the whole thing just a misunderstanding.
It's not even as if the school and community put overt pressure on victims and witnesses to cut athletes a break. As a fan or supporter of the program, there's the natural desire not to hurt the team, despite what happened off the field. (It's the entire plot of Big Fan. And, you know, get used to it if you're not already. Athletes will always be treated differently at sports schools. They bring in money, they add cachet. The better the player, the more untouchable they are.
Rucker reached a plea deal to avoid charges of driving while intoxicated. His team suspension is expected to end soon.

Sweet revenge for champions County
Ross County gained revenge over Hamilton with a 5-1 victory at Victoria Park.
The Accies are the only team to have beaten Derek Adams' side in the league this season, but fell behind after five minutes when Colin McMenamin swept home Richard Brittain's right-wing cross.
The Staggies doubled their lead five minutes before the break, Michael Gardyne playing in Brittain to score his 11th goal of the season.
Billy Reid's men came back into the game in the 46th minute when James McAlister found the back of the net with a long-range strike.
But Stuart Kettlewell restored County's two-goal advantage just 45 seconds later, tapping home Scott Morrison's cross.
The champions assured their victory after 54 minutes when Brittain scored his second of the afternoon.
Gardyne then scored County's fifth in the 77th minute, smashing the ball into the roof of the net after the visitors failed to clear Lawson's corner.

Quote from: Doubledown Trent on November 16, 2004, 11:24:59 PMWhen I was in Laguna Beach, there was a place called Thai This. We have a place called Thai Phoon. Those silly Thais . . . yeah, we've got thaifoon and thaiphoon. i was curious about trademark problems now that you mention it! thaifoon is above the santa monica airport and is awesome but thaiphoon at fashion island sucks. HTH
When I was in Laguna Beach, there was a place called Thai This. We have a place called Thai Phoon. Those silly Thais . . .
I had been under the impression that American would be easier to get to, instead I had to walk for like a half hour in the blistering cold from the metro, which definitely dampened my view of the school.
Campus visits are fun. I visited Berkeley, Davis, UCLA, Hastings, Santa Clara, and Loyola in October. I toured the buildings and chatted with admissions about the application process.Surprisingly, Boalt was the worst building. The building was dreary and horrible. My sister is in Berkeley School of Social Work and they have a MUCH better building than the law school. I was amazed.UCLA was my favorite. It is absolutely gorgeous and I'd die to go to school there.

- Premier League
Rooney: Fulham goal reminds me of Ronaldo
Wayne Rooney hopes he has emulated his former team-mate Cristiano Ronaldo by firing Manchester United towards the title with a late winner at Craven Cottage.
The England striker took his tally to ten goals in as many games with a 79th-minute strike to give the league leaders a 1-0 victory over Fulham.
It was a goal that was reminiscent of Ronaldo's decider at Craven Cottage in February 2007 when United went on to become champions.
"It was a little bit similar to Cristiano's goal," Rooney is quoted as saying by several British newspapers. "After that goal we went on to win the league and hopefully that can happen again.
"As you run through you always try and assess the situation and what you feel is best to do. It's a case of if you feel you can score or if a team-mate is in a better position to score but I fancied the shot and, thankfully, it's gone in."
United have now won 11 of their last 13 league games to open up a nine-point lead at the top of the division and Rooney believes this is a particularly significant victory.
He added: "It was a tough game and they made it tough for us. We had a few chances in the first half - hit the post and crossbar twice - but they made it difficult in the second half.
"We just had to keep going and believe we could get the goal, and thankfully we did. After that we hung on really well and it's a massive three points for us."

First, check out the video:
A good deal of his blog is in English, and well worth reading. In a post about so-called honor killings, he says:
But the question remains, why are people doing so and thinking in such a backward way? Regardless of these accidents there are many indications that people in Arab societies are beginning to be more aware of the danger and barbarity of these rituals that say that whoever tends to defame the reputation of the family deserves to die. In a referendum done on the internet by www.alarabiya.net the results were hopeful. 62.96 % of the voters think that this crime is not justified, and it is not supported by any religion or law, but is another example of the domination of rituals and customs in our daily life. A minority of 12.36% think that it is the only resort to eradicate bad people from our society. 24.68% were neutral. What we are aiming at is to leave no single person in our society who might believe that killing innocent people might be a remedy to any problem.
And, when confronted by a friend about his feminism, Ghashmary has a succinct, practical approach to explaining his motivations:
I spent almost two years looking around me for men who might share me the same views, but it was all in vain; everyone believed I'm wasting my time. A friend of mine has recently blamed me for dedicating my efforts to fight for women's equality, and he called that "Lunacy"; I answered him saying, "The best person in my life is my sweetheart and she's a woman, my favorite Arab singer is Fayyrouz and she is a woman, my favorite non-Arab singer is Celine Dion and she is a woman, my favorite professor is called Fadia and she is a woman, my favorite athelet is Maria Sharapova and she is a woman, my favorite movie star is Julia Roberts and she is a woman, my favorite talk show presenter is Oprah Winfrey and she is a woman, my favorite novelist is Jane Austen and she is a woman, and so on. And still you wonder why I am fighting for their rights.I like this guy so much that I'm willing to forgive him for the Celine Dion thing.

worst movie ever
To the person who said all these reviews are written by one person, do you realize the score of this movie on any other website? Got 1 1/2 stars on rotten tomatoes and 27% average rating from critcis, 2 1/2 on rogerebert, 2 on empireonline, 3 on IMD and had a terrible opening eekend. Yet, you are telling ppl its all one person on here? nope. Movie is just bad and you're upset that other people dont like it. I didnt and I wont go see another one if they make it.
I went with my girlfriend, she gave it one star. I'll be nice and give it two.
I pray they dont ever make another Bad Moms movie. I dont think they could though, I dont see how make it even worse then this one.
Lol the aliens story.
This movie was so bad that is already fading in my brain.
Not worth paying to see, wait till it is in a $5 bin somewhere.
The only people who would give this 4 or 5 stars are people who do nothing but get drunk and have no idea what a good movie is. So its getting a 2 for me. Only reason I didnt give it a 1 is because Mila Kunis is in it.
I either was abducted by aliens or blacked out this experience. I do remember the first 30 minutes though and it was not good, so I probably blacked out the rest. I would have rather of been abducted by aliens though. Movie wasnt good.
Pay for another movie. Dont go to this one, nothing but drunk woman wanting to get laid, cursing like sailors and acting like high school girls. My daughter paid for this, thank god it was her money and not mine.
The only things this movie is offering are sex, get drunk and swear. Nothing else.
Save your money.

After consecutive blowout losses, Ridgeland-Hardeeville rallied Friday night to beat visiting Savannah Country Day 16-13.
The Jaguars (1-2) trailed 13-0 at halftime, but scored two fourth-quarter touchdowns. It was the first victory for the program since Jasper County consolidated its two high schools over the summer.
Ridgeland-Hardeeville scored the go-ahead touchdown on Deo'vonte Doe's 50-yard scamper up the middle with 5:02 remaining. D.J. Myers added the two-point conversion run.
Savannah Country Day (0-1) mounted a drive as it reached the Jaguars' 25-yard line with 1:20 remaining, but Jeffery Gadson and Kaelin Devore combined for a tackle and a four-yard loss. The Hornets attempted a 46-yard field goal on fourth-and-11.
Harley Lichtenberg's kick had the distance, but missed wide left.
"I saw it peeling (left), I saw it peeling, I saw it peeling," Jaguars coach Blake Raley said.
The Jaguars trailed 13-0 at halftime, but stopped SCDS' first-and-goal attempt from the 1-yard line with 1.7 seconds remaining in the first half.
In the fourth quarter the Jaguars drove 54 yards in 13 plays and had first-and-goal from the 4, but four running attempts were stuffed and they did not score.
But the Hornets fumbled a snap on second down and Marquis McClennon's recovery gave the Jaguars possession at the Hornets' 1. Doe scored on the next play and Marquis Griffin added the two-point conversion. It was 13-8 with 8:54 remaining.
The Hornets managed a first down on their next possession, but were forced to punt from their 42 after three plays netted eight yards.
Ridgeland-Hardeeville took possession on its 18 with 6:26 to go in the fourth and Myers tossed a screen to the backside to Doe, who raced to the 35. Two plays later, Myers hit Griffin on an 11-yard pass. An inside trap sent Doe through a big hole and he passed a chasing defender for the winning score.
"He wasn't catching me," Doe said.

I would like to start this thread because we have researched this again and again and there realy is not much out there. So I would like to post this for anyone else that is in our shoes can have some type of information on this.
On Thursday September 1, 2011 our little girl Gracie had surgery on both of her hind legs. Her right leg was at a stage 3 and her left was at a stage 2. We dropped her off at 7 am and told us is they would call after the surgery was done. Now let me tell you leaving our little girl was not easy nor was it easy on her brother Bailey. It was very difficult on our Bailey seeing how they have not been seperated since birth. On the Friday we were not only worring about our little girl we were worring about Bailey, he was just lying around not eating not acting like himself he was missing his sister.
Finally around 2:00 we received the call from the surgeon. They had to deepen the groove in both knees and tighten the muscles surrounding the knee cap. the surgeon said he felt everything went well and we should be able to pick up Gracie on Friday.
Thursday night we called to check on gracie because she had to stay overnight, they said she was doing well putting some weight on her legs didn't want to eat which was normal because of the meds she was on. She was on a epidural drip for the pain.
We picked gracie up around 3:00 after all of the post op instructions we were able to bring her home
For the rest of Friday she was pretty much quiet and slept. She is on Tramadol 2-3 times a day for the pain and Carprofen 1-2 times a day for the inflammation. Also heat on the knees 3-4 times a day. We are running face clothes under hot water and putting them in baggies then appying them to her knees 3-4 times a day.
When we take her out to pee we are putting a towel under her belly to give her support.
So it is Monday Sept 5 4 days after surgery Gracie is almost back to normal. She is still favoring her right leg a little. But all and all looking good. Definetly not what I expected.
Bailey is very happy to have his sister back even thought she is being a little fresh to him.
I am going to keep up with her progress because I know there is not much out there on this procedure and I want to put peoples mind at ease. I know my husband and I were both a pyhisical wreck about this whole situation and if I can ease peoples mind about this situation they are further ahead than we were.

About this font family
The Trellis font family was an effort to combine my love for Art Nouveau and storybook lettering. The capital letters are intricately illustrated and fully appreciated when magnified. Trellis is a font family decidedly decorative and ready for greeting cards and holiday cheer.
I was inspired by Storybook caps for the capital letters, and wanted to combine it with some lettering from early 20th century posters.
What are its main characteristics and features? Leaves intertwined and growing out of the ends of the capital letters. Although it's highly decorative, it remains legible. More…
Usage recommendations - Holiday Greetings, scrapbooking, personal seals since the capitals are quite attractive.

The real purpose of a leap year may be to keep the calendar aligned with the seasons, but at the Panama Amphibian Rescue and Conservation Project, we'd like to believe the day is designed to honor our favorite leapers. To celebrate, we've put together some fun facts about frog leaping.
- Not all frogs can leap, or even hop. The desert rain frog (Breviceps macrops) has legs that are too short to hop. Instead, it walks.
- Male frogs of the genus Pipa are known to defend their territory by jumping at and then wrestling other males.
- The New Guineabush frog (Asterophrys turpicola) takes jump attacks one step further: before it jumps at a strange frog, it inflates itself and shows off its blue tongue.
- Stumpffia tridactyla are normally slow-moving critters, but when they're startled they can abruptly jump up to 8 inches. That doesn't sound very far, but these little guys are less than half an inch long!
- The Fujitree frog (Platymantis vitiensis) may be the leaping stuntman of the frog world. Each time it leaps, it twists in the air – sometimes even 180 degrees – to throw predators off its trail.
- The Larut torrent frog (Amolops larutensis) gets its name from a nifty leaping trick: it can jump into a fast-moving stream and back to its usual perch, the underside of a rock, without being affected by the current.
- The parachuting red-eyed leaf frog (Agalychnis saltator) gets its name from its habit of racing to its mating grounds by jumping from trees with finger-and toe-webbing spread wide.
- The record for the longest jump by an American bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) recorded in a scientific paper is a little over 1.2 metres. But scientists who went to the Calaveras County Fair, which Mark Twain's short story made famous for frog jumping, found that more than half the competitors bested that record – and one jumped more than 2.1 metres in one leap!
- The Guinness Book of World Records doesn't include any frogs for their leaping ability. But it does track human performance in frog jumping (jumping while holding one's toes). There are records listed for the longest frog jump and the fastest frog jumping over 10 and 100 meters.
In honor of leap day celebrations being coordinated globally by Amphibian Ark, the Panama Amphibian Rescue and Conservation Project made this video for a frog song written by Alex Culbreth.

text: If all goes as planned, Bill Parcells will replace Sean Payton, his disciple in Dallas, as the New Orleans Saints' head coach once Payton begins serving his one-year suspension for his involvement in the Saints "pay-for-performance" scandal. Parcells has already told multiple media outlets that he would seriously consider the position if asked, and as long as the Big Tuna is all in, it's a great move for a team that had best be prepared for more body blows in the form of player suspensions very soon. "If [Payton] says to me, 'Bill, I need you to do this,' " Parcells told Newsday on March 28 , "that's what friends are supposed to be for." However, there's one complication to this happy ending -- if the Saints wish to hire Parcells, they must first comply with the Rooney Rule, put into effect by the NFL in 2003 and named after Pittsburgh Steelers owner Dan Rooney, which requires that any team looking to hire a new head coach must interview at least one minority candidate before making a final decision, unless the team hired from within. The Steelers got a great head coach in Mike Tomlin out of that sense of diversity, but in cases where another coach is seen as a lead-pipe lock before such terms are met, the Rooney Rule can be a real sham. According to former New York Jets and Kansas City Chiefs head coach Herm Edwards, a mockery is precisely what the Saints are making of it. "It makes it a little bit of a scam now," Edwards told ESPN , where he's now an analyst,*"That's the shame of it all. Sean Payton* opening his mouth like he did , he really reflects that this thing is going to become a sham if Bill Parcells takes this job. Because if you do decide to interview a minority, you're going to go with Bill Parcells. You've already said, 'This is our coach.' That's the shame of it all. It puts [NFL Commissioner Roger Goodell] in another bind." Payton "opened his mouth" here: Herm's right of course, but the Rooney Rule has opened itself up to similar scams since its inception. In 2003 , former Lions team president Matt Millen (no, we still can't write that without laughing) was fined $200,000 by the league after five minority candidates refused to interview for a job Millen had already promised to Steve Mariucci. Millen probably could have gone with the "Hey, who the hell would want to work for me, anyway?" gambit, but that didn't enter his mind.

Wanted to share it with you so you could get in on that free shipping. Plus, you can charge it right from your OUYA! Bonus!
Is this your theme song?
Yeah, I know how you feel. I did the same thing today in this thread. I had more to say, but the lack of energy didn't allow it. It's painful to read posts that are long and I guess I'm a big hypocrite in a way right now. Just remember that I was the original wordy member on this forum and you'll begin to understand what I'm capable of
Your long-ass posts exhaust me. Just thought I'd tell you that...
thought we should b friends for real haha
Excellent! The new one is good, but it's just not good enough.
Alright Shizo, I see the Dredd badge. So...new Dredd movie or old Dredd movie?

BRICS does no longer actively develop the <bigwig> system. Instead, we are working on JWIG, which is a Java-based successor to <bigwig>.
<bigwig> is a high-level programming language for developing interactive Web services.
The goal of the <bigwig> project is to remove many of the obstacles that face current developers of Web services to lower cost while increasing functionality and reliability, compared to CGI/Perl scripts, ASP, or PHP based solutions. The <bigwig> language is a descendant of the Mawl project, inheriting the concepts of sessions and document templates.
<bigwig> is being developed at the BRICS research center at the Department of Computer Science, Aarhus University, Denmark.
If this is your first visit to the <bigwig> home page we encourage you to read the introduction.

The 1098-T form
The 1098-T form:
The 1098-T is an IRS form entitled "Tuition Statement" that assists the student in determining if he/she qualifies for certain education related tax credits under the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997(TRA97). The IRS requires eligible educational institutions such as Georgia Highlands College, who receive payment for qualified tuition and related expenses during the calendar year to provide this statement to the students and to the IRS. ALL STUDENTS WILL NOT QUALIFY FOR A 1098-T FORM.
Mailing Date:
The Forms will be mailed by January 31st of the following year. All students should receive their 1098-T form within two weeks of this date.
Mailing Address:
The 1098-T form will be mailed to the mailing address in Banner/SCORE. If the student's address has changed recently, they need to update their address in Banner/SCORE or contact the Registrar's Office to enquire about updating their account to reflect the new address.
Copy of the 1098-T form:
All students will have the option of printing their copy of their 1098-T statements from the following link: http://www.1098t.com.
Information reported on form 1098-T:
On the 1098-T form, Georgia Highlands College reports student's name, SSN, address and indicates if the student was at least half-time during the calendar year. The college reports the amount billed for qualified tuition and related expenses and not the actual amount that the student paid to the college during the calendar year. GHC has elected to report amounts billed in Box 2 instead of payment received in Box 1 . Please note that this form is CALENDAR based, January 1, 20XX- December 31, 20XX. Students generally are under the impression that it is semester based, Spring, Summer, Fall, and it is not.
Amounts included in Box 2 , "Amounts billed for qualified tuition and related expense":
This represents the amounts billed during the calendar year for qualified tuition and related expenses. The amount reported is the total amount billed less any reductions in charges made during the calendar year that relate to the amounts billed.
Amounts included in Box 4 , "Adjustments made for a prior year":
This represents any reduction in charges made for qualified tuition and related expenses processed during the calendar year that relate to amounts billed that were reported for a prior year. The student could have an adjustment if they had any changes during this calendar year that affected the previous calendar year, i.e. late withdraws.
Amounts included in Box 5 , Scholarship and grants for a prior year":
This represents any reduction to the amount of scholarship or grants that were reported for prior year.
What should students do if they do not receive the1098-T Form
Georgia Highlands College sends a 1098-T form to every student except foreign students, from whom the college received payment for qualified tuition and related expensesthat was greater than their scholarships or aid. If the student's scholarship and/or financial aid exceeds their qualified expenses the IRS does not require GHC to provide the student with a 1098-T, and therefore one will not be sent.If the student does not receive their 1098-t, and their expenses exceeded their aid, then they will need to logon to the www.1098t.com website and print a copy of the form.
What should students do if they have questions regarding their 1098-T Form:
If students have a general question regarding their 1098-T form, then they need to review the information on the www.1098t.com website. If they have specific questions related to the amounts on the form, then they should contact the GHC business office. For all general tax questions the students should follow up with their tax advisor.
Determining the eligibility for the educational tax credits:
Georgia Highlands College cannot determine if a student qualifies for a tax credit and is not allowed to give tax advice. Students should read the instructions on the 1098-T statement and obtain IRS publication 970 and Form 8863 or contact a tax professional about their personal income tax situation. The IRS website for the above form and publication is www.irs.gov/formspubs/index.html, and the IRS can be reached at 1-800-829-1040.

Booker T. Washington Playground
Booker T. Washington Playground
This property is named for civil rights leader Booker T. Washington (1856-1915). Washington was born in Franklin County, Virginia, and lived there for the first nine years of his life. Following the conclusion of the Civil War, the Washington family moved to Malden, West Virginia, where Booker worked in a salt furnace and coal mines. Because of his heavy work schedule, Washington received his early schooling between jobs. From 1872 to 1875, he attended the newly formed Hampton Normal and Agricultural Institute, now known as Hampton University. In 1879, he returned to Hampton as a professor while simultaneously organizing a night school and industrial training program for Native Americans. In 1881, impressed by the program's success, Hampton's founder, Samuel Chapman Armstrong appointed Washington dean of the newly founded Tuskegee University in Alabama. Tuskegee's success garnered national praise for both Booker T. Washington and the institute's industrial/agricultural curriculum.
On September 18, 1895, the educator delivered a speech in Atlanta, Georgia, known as "The Atlanta Compromise" in which he argued that the problems of African Americans could be greatly reduced through vocational training and economic self-reliance. The speech drew accolades from many people of all ethnic groups. Some intellectuals, however, criticized Washington as too moderate. Washington drew fire from W. E. B. DuBois for his beliefs; DuBois believed economic reform without social reform to be an acceptance of subordination. Despite some criticism, Washington continued his work and founded several organizations including the National Negro Business League. He also authored many books including The Future of the American Negro (1899), Up from Slavery (1901), Life of Frederick Douglass (1907), The Story of the Negro (1909), and My Larger Education (1911).
Booker T. Washington Playground is situated on 108th Street between Columbus and Amsterdam Avenues. The playground lies within Manhattan Valley, which is the area south of Morningside Heights and north of the Upper West Side. The name became common during the 1960s and refers to the sloping of Manhattan Avenue north of 100th Street. Prior to the construction of Central Park (1859), squatters, shacks, and shantytowns filled the area. The construction of the park evicted residents of the settlements. In the late 1870s, several asylums for the elderly and disadvantaged were built in Manhattan Valley. The neighborhood was also the original home of the New York Cancer Hospital, which has since moved and been renamed Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center.
The City of New York acquired this property on March 8, 1943, via a condemnation proceeding. The property was intended to be used for the construction of the West Side Vocational High School. After the Board of Education failed to complete the project due to budgetary constraints, Parks acquired the parcel on July 20, 1950. The park, which shares its name with adjacent J.H.S. Booker T. Washington School, was named by Commissioner Stern. The facility provides recreation for the school and local community with eight basketball standards, one full basketball court, four handball courts, and a large open play area.

Find relief from the blistering temperatures (and take your mind off storm damage and the power outage) at one of Columbus' many swimming pools.
Find relief from the blistering temperatures (and take your mind off storm damage and the power outage) at one of Columbus' many swimming pools.Best way to experience water-logged thrills: Zoombezi Bay
4850 W. Powell Road, Powell
With features Python Plunge and Big Boa Falls, the Columbus Zoo's 22-acre mother of all water parks is sure to satisfy your every yearning to frolic in water. Waterslide that shoots you up instead of down? Yep. Giant wave pool? Mm-hmm. Not one, not two, but four different raft rides? Covered.
Hang out at Croctail Island, a 21-and-over area with a lazy river, sunning decks, bar and food service. Or go for the ultimate experience in a private cabana ($89 weekdays; $129 Friday, Saturday or Sunday) and enjoy a private patio, discounts on food and drinks, and attentive wait staff.
You'll want to set an entire day aside to enjoy Zoombezi Bay's amenities. Got a yearning to visit the polar bears, too? A two-day pass gets you into the water park and the zoo for $44; that saves you $4 on separate admission. -Kristen Schmidt
Most spanking-new pool in the land: Dodge Pool
545 Sullivant Ave., Franklinton
Franklinton got a little more beautiful this year with the unveiling of more than $6 million in improvements to Dodge Pool. The aging facility got a new bath house, spiffy landscaping and a sweet waterslide. There are separate areas in the pool for lounging around and for swimming laps, if Olympics fever is inspiring you.
The perked-up Dodge is the latest reason to visit Franklinton for some leisure time. Play hooky from work and lunch at the Dinin' Hall food trucks at 400 West Rich before taking a dip. Or pack a picnic and a Frisbee for a pre-swim lounge in Dodge Park, which has fantastic views of the skyline. -Kristen SchmidtBest reason to stay home on a Saturday: The Goat at Paddock at Hayden Run
5730 Silver Falls St., Dublin
If you lived here, you'd be in the pool by now.
Or maybe you'd make a stop at the bar first for suds and a burger. You've got to hand it to Lifestyle Communities for putting some heft behind the word "amenities" for its Dublin apartment community. The Goat is the name of the community bar and restaurant, which is settled enticingly close to the pool and volleyball courts. Fun ensues.
Residents and members of the company's popular volleyball leagues get first dibs on the pool, which is the place to be on summer afternoons, evenings and weekends. The menu at The Goat is full of pub fare, and there are plenty of televisions to itch your sports-loving scratch.
We can't promise everyone at The Goat will be as beautiful as the people on our cover, but it's definitely a hangout for the young, attractive and fun. Who said living in the suburbs is boring? -Kristen SchmidtBest watering hole within a watering hole: Flannagan's Dublin
6835 Caine Rd., Dublin
Known for its competitive sand volleyball summer leagues and popped-collar college crowd, Flannagan's is also home to Elly Bay. That's the name of the 2,000-square-foot pool in the back that has a swim-up bar and a concrete island with comfy lounge chairs that will swallow all your motivation to do anything but lie in the sun.
Entry to the heated waters (don't worry, the pool is warm on purpose) is typically $5 on the weekdays and $7 on the weekends. There is always a game, dance party, band or bikini-clad babe that will inspire you to belly up - or belly flop - to the bar and order a cold one. -Jackie ManteyBest place to feel like Lewis and Clark: Trapper John's
7141 London-Groveport Rd., Grove City
Set your inner adventurer free at this canoe livery in Grove City. Trapper John's rents canoes and kayaks from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. daily at myriad price points (newbies fearful to tip a canoe should try The Sampler package: a two-hour tour for $15 per person). Or ditch the boat and paddles and traverse the Big Darby Creek in a floating tube.
Before you go, visit the Trapper John's website to survey all the routes you can take and the rules you have to follow to avoid being up a creek with the employees; for example, Styrofoam coolers for refreshments are not allowed. Your bonus for checking out Trapper John's online: There's a link to a coupon for $2 off canoe and kayak rentals on the home page. Happy trails to you. -Jackie ManteyBest reason to road trip for a dip: Buckeye Lake State Park
2905 Liebs Island Rd., Millersport
When the municipal pools are packed to the brim, a day of swimming might not mean a day of tranquility. That's what nature is there for. Buckeye Lake, located 40 minutes east of Downtown, is your serene solution.
Not only can you choose from three distinct beaches (Fairfield Beach, Crystal Beach and Brooks Park) for splashing around until nightfall, there's also a wealth of activities in the park (boating, fishing, picnicking) and around it.
Enjoy the shade of Dawes Arboretum, the air conditioning of the Buckeye Lake Historical Society Museum or the bird-watching jackpot that is Hebron Fish Hatchery. You can even reserve a camping area and extend your aquatic outdoor getaway by a day or two. And if you time your visit with Labor Day weekend, the Millersport Sweet Corn Festival will be in full swing.
Remember that the next time you're elbow-to-elbow in the chlorine trying to carve out a five-foot radius. -Chris DeVilleBest way to swim on a budget: Tuttle Pool
240 W. Oakland Ave., Campus
With its convenient central location just north of Ohio State campus, "Tuttle puddle" is easy to access from almost anywhere inside I-270. You can even bike there via the Olentangy Trail, which connects Tuttle to parks such as Worthington Hills Park, Antrim Park and Confluence Park.
Pedaling instead of driving would be a great way to save money, but then again, Tuttle is already a highly affordable option. The purchase of a "leisure card" for just $1 gets you access to the pool (and lots of other Columbus Recreation and Parks facilities) for a year. Pick one up at one of 28 affiliated community centers around town.
The pool is open from 1:30-7:30 p.m. daily, but those who show up early or stay late can stay active at the rest of Tuttle Park's features, including basketball courts, a lighted tennis court, baseball diamonds and a playground. -Chris DeVilleBest way to splash without swimming: Scioto Mile Fountains
233 Civic Center Dr., Downtown
Although the wading pools that were initially advertised as part of Bicentennial Park are nowhere to be found, Scioto Mile's 15,000-square-foot fountains are still something special. In fact, they just got a lot more special - as of last week, the 1,079 ground-level spray nozzles squirt to heights of up to 12 feet from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. daily. Furthermore, the geysers within the halo sculptures erupt once an hour as high as 70 feet in the sky, creating an effect one employee called "synthetic rain."
The place tends to be swamped with kids, but there's at least one significant adult amenity in the form of adjacent restaurant Milestone 229. Why not spend half an hour enjoying the fountains, then dry off and grab a drink on the patio? The restaurant's extensive list of pizzas, sandwiches, snacks and starters also makes for fine fountain-side fare. -Chris DeVille

McHenry County home sales were up 28.4 percent in March, according to a market report released Monday by the Illinois Association of Realtors.
Closed sales (including single-family homes and condominiums) totaled 357 last month, up from 278 in March 2012. The median sales price for single-family homes increased 2.1 percent to $160,000, while condo prices fell 12.5 percent to $82,500 in March.The median price of all homes was down 1 percent compared to a year ago, $138.620 vs. $140,000 in 2012.
The inventory of all homes for sale dropped by third, from 2,889 to 1,926, while the days on market was down from 113 days in March 2012 to 100 days in 2013.
Year-to-date, closed sales totaled 946 through March in McHenry County, up 32.1 percent from 716 through March 2012. The year-over-year median sales price of all homes was flat at $135,000.
The median price for all properties in Kane County was $149,000 in March, up 6.4 percent from $140,000 in 2012. Year-over-year closed sales in Kane were up 5.4 percent, from 502 to 528. The median price for all properties in Lake County was $160,000, down 1.2 percent from March 2012. Closed sales were up 25.2 percent, from 611 to 765.
Illinois home sales increased 13.6 percent over previous-year levels in March and median prices increased 3.6 percent, according to the Illinois Association of Realtors.
Statewide home sales (including single-family homes and condominiums) in March 2013 totaled 10,992 homes sold, up from 9,679 in March 2012. Statewide sales have posted monthly year-over-year gains since July 2011.
The statewide median price in March was $135,000, up 3.6 percent from March 2012 when the median price was $130,250. The median is a typical market price where half the homes sold for more and half sold for less.
"We are entering what is traditionally the busiest period of the year in the real estate market," said Michael D. Oldenettel, president of the Illinois Association of Realtors and Managing Broker/Owner with Re/Max Results Plus in Jacksonville. "The decreasing time it takes to sell a home, coupled with shrinking inventories shows there is keen interest on the part of homebuyers who are rushing to lock in favorable interest rates and take advantage of low, but increasing prices."
The monthly average commitment rate for a 30-year, fixed-rate mortgage for the North Central region was 3.54 percent in March 2013, up from 3.49 percent during the previous month, according to the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corp. Last March it averaged 3.99 percent.
In the nine-county Chicago Primary Metropolitan Statistical Area, home sales (single-family and condominiums) in March 2013 totaled 7,914 homes sold, up 18.1 percent from March 2012 sales of 6,703 homes.
The median price in March 2013 was $155,000 in the Chicago PMSA, up 2.0 percent from $151,950 in March 2012.
"The inventory in both the state and Chicago markets suggest that demand has begun to return to the housing market," noted Geoffrey J.D. Hewings, director of the Regional Economics Applications Laboratory of the University of Illinois. "However, foreclosed properties are accounting for a sizeable portion of these sales. The good news is that foreclosed sales are outpacing new additions to the foreclosure inventory but at a cost of dampening median price increases."
Forty-four of 102 Illinois counties reporting to IAR showed year-over-year home sales increases in March 2013. Thirty-four counties showed year-over-year median price increases including Woodford, up 60.6 percent to $211,950; St. Clair, up 30.6 percent to $117,500; Kendall, up 21.7 percent to $154,950; Will, up 13.0 percent to $170,000; and Peoria, up 1.8 percent to $119,100.
The city of Chicago saw a 13.8 percent year-over-year home sales increase in March 2013 with 1,894 sales, up from 1,664 in March 2012.
The median price of a home in the city of Chicago in March 2013 was $187,500 up 9.0 percent compared to March 2012 when it was $172,000. Chicago condo prices also saw strong gains for the month, posting a 9.3 percent jump to $235,000.
"It is an excellent time for sellers to move their homes quickly, if priced well in what's fast become a thriving market," said Realtor Zeke Morris, president of the Chicago Association of Realtors and operating principal and managing broker, Keller Williams Realty, CCG. "The city's housing inventory in March was down 45 percent compared to the same time last year. Data tells us that buyers are taking advantage of this period when homes are still priced attractively and interest rates are low, concerned that it might not last. This creates an urgency among buyers that is promising for sellers ready to act."

Game Notes - pdf
PITTSBURGH, Pa. – The Carnegie Mellon University football team will travel to Meadville, Pa. to play the Gators of Allegheny College on Saturday, September 8, at 3:30 p.m. on the turf of Frank B. Fuhrer Field. It will mark the 52nd contest between the two schools.
Last season, Allegheny came into Pittsburgh and defeated the Tartans 33-13 for its third straight victory in the Steel City. After a 12-year hiatus in the series, it continued in 2007 with the Gators winning four of the last five meetings. The Tartans still lead the all-time series 30-19-2. The first meeting between the two schools was in 1906 when then Carnegie Tech defeated Allegheny by the score of 5-0. The two teams have combined for 19 shutouts, including a 0-0 tie in 1917. The Tartans hold the shutout advantage with 14.
Carnegie Mellon is coming off a 23-20 victory over Grove City, while Allegheny defeated Wooster 17-14. Both teams put together come-from-behind victories last Saturday.
There will be a live telecast for Saturday's contest. Locally it can be viewed on the CW Network. Fans with Dish Network will be able to view the game in high definition through Dish Network's multi-sport package by tuning in to Fox's Regional sports networks. A specific channel will not be assigned until 48 hours prior to the broadcast, but the channel range is 411-426. DIRECTV is similar (Fox Regional sports networks) with additional programming on channels 617 and 623. The game will also be on ESPN 3.

Cold beaches
It was so cold, even the pelicans weren't doing much in the way of flying.
So I walked along the shore, watching everyone else, all bundled up, walking along at the same time. I particularly enjoyed all the parents out with young children, following them along in their boundless energy, heedless of the cold. I remember exactly what that was like, walking with Older Daughter along the Marina in San Francisco, with Rick's grandmother - as if it were yesterday. And it struck me suddenly: it does feel like yesterday, but there I was, having just dropped my daughter off at a workshop on seismic engineering at UCSD. And as inarticulate and dorky as it sounds, all I could think was:
When did that happen? I remember so clearly what it was like when she was barely walking. Heck, let's be fair - I remember what it was like to be 14, and nervous and scared and doing something new with people I didn't know. Isn't it odd to carry all of these people inside - each of them an iteration of "me"?
I guess cold ocean air messes with my brain.
Meanwhile, don't those colors look familiar?
I've been doing some sampling today on my wheel, but I will write more about that next time. I've also been knitting away on Vitamin D:
I rather like the radial increases on the yoke; they also are used to make the front panels swingy. I'm tempted, should I make this an elbow-length sleeve, to do something similar towards the end of the sleeve, to make them a little bell-like. Again, time will tell.
Meanwhile, dark and stormy seas aside, I came home to find that Rick had bought these at the farmer's market. It's clearly spring somewhere!

I agree that some rain is wetter. Those sweet peas - ahhh. It is nearly 80 here this afternoon, but snowing just north of us. Dude.

That first picture made me gasp. I can't wait to be near the ocean again! (Nor can I wait to get back into the dye studio in "play" mode, and try to make some of those colors.)
I love the polwarth/BFL yarn. It really came out beautifully, and I'm really interested to see what it looks like knit up. This is such a great example of using the properties of the wool to best advantage!
Seismic engineering? Oh, my. Time does fly!

It's been just cold here...well to be fair it is maine.I have no pictures of buds or flowers yet. I've been a bit envious. It made me feel a bit better to see that deliciously colored cold ocean and rocky crags. The colors are amazing and I love how you integrated them into your yarn.I can't wait to see what it becomes.

Southern California rain is wetter than Pacific Northwest rain. Also, yes, some ocean is just higher--which is literally true due to tide and moon and all that.
That yarn is definitely 'Cold Beach'. How about a cold beach wearing sweater?

Gorgeous photos! And the yarn does have all those colors. Wonderful.

Love the colors of the yarn ... which you created with your two hands and skill! Love the sweet peas - farmer's markets are the best. Hope the CSU politics aren't getting you down and the strike doesn't have to happen.

I think we got that same very wet rain day. Big drops! Instead of heavy mist. I was soaked after feeding the creatures in the back yard. You're right about the ocean too. There was this one Big Ocean day at the beach at Fort Kronkhite...
Mmm colors! And my! those kids do grow quickly!
- April 17, 2012 at 8:43 PM
- twinsetellen said...
Dude! is right. Seismic engineering - wow, there is no pretending that she isn't growing up. I've had the same thought - that we all have iterations of ourselves inside, nested like little Russian dolls. I see it more clearly in the daughters - there is the baby version, the toddler version, the 5th grader, and so on...
The yarn is FABULOUS and does evoke the cold beach photos, which are also fabulous. Big ocean, indeed!

- Carrie#K said...
I have never seen so many pelicans in one place EVER. Wicked, as the kids say/said.
And dude! I'm constantly feeling like that! I was driving down a road I haven't been on since First Hubby and started having a "Hi, Long Ago Self, did you ever think -" talk with me. But shh. Don't tell anyone. I sound dotty. :)

Your Rick is a peach. And I lovelovelove that yarn and the pictures of the place it so belongs with.
My little girl with the blonde curls who was for the first time at age four not afraid of a dog when a friend let her tiny teacup poodle climb in my daughter's delighted lap...
...Is now trying to decide whether to walk or not at her graduation with her PhD. The days are so long when they're little, but the years are so short.

"workshop on seismic engineering at UCSD" - is this the child who came to visit us? Truly they grow up so fast, and this one seems to be her fathers daughter - and engineer perhaps?

And yeah.
My son is going to turn 13. How is that even possible!

As soon as I saw that first photo I thought of your yarn!
Where does the time go with our kids? Same thing is happening with my grand kids, how did OG get to be nearly two and a half and when did YG have time to turn one?

This whole twenty-first century gets me down. I keep looking around for the Reset button.
When I joined this little shindig, in March of 1985, we did not have a website. I'm not sure the word had been invented yet. So we did not have a flood of people coming in to tell us, "I read your website and did it exactly the way you say you want it."
That's the point of the Book Fair instructions on the website, of course. But by the time they've explained that they packed everything in bags because we say we don't want boxes or they've packed everything in boxes because we say never to use bags, I begin to wonder whether an elf slipped in an rewrote the instructions or whether I am getting thirty Whole Foods bags of books from people who are functionally illiterate.
This last week, fort example, I had two donors tell me they had thrown away a lot of books they knew we didn't want. One threw away all his history books because he saw we didn't want textbooks and another pitched all his nineteenth century literary magazines because we never take books that need dusting. Both these people were smiling, happy, intelligent, and mistaken.
There are things we want, things we don't want, and things we aren't crazy about but we'll put them out for sale. Perhaps the website is too general. Here are some specifics to fill out the situation:
WE LIKE: Farewell to Arms.
WE ACCEPT: Old literary anthologies from your tenth grade lit class, including excerpts from Farewell To Arms
WE DON'T WANT: The Teacher's Guide To Accompany Old Literary Anthologies From Your Tenth Grade Class
WE LIKE: Books in dust jackets
WE ACCEPT: Books with loose covers
WE DON'T WANT: Books which lost their covers so long ago that now they have a jacket made of dust
WE LIKE: DVDs of Glee
WE ACCEPT: Betamax tapes of Lawrence Welk
WE DON'T WANT: The cassettes from your old answering machine
WE LIKE: The postcards you picked up on your trip to France
WE ACCEPT: The beer mats you picked up on your trip to Germany
WE DON'T WANT: The prescriptions you picked up on your trip to the podiatrist
WE LIKE: Mistress of Mellyn in hardcover
WE ACCEPT: Mistress of Mellyn in hardcover with pages folded down, a love poem inside the front cover, and a rose pressed at page 266 since 1967
WE DON'T WANT: Mistress of Mellyn in Reader's Digest Condensed Books, EVEN IF the dust jacket is in great shape
WE LIKE: A leatherbound copy of Gone With the Wind which smells like a catcher's mitt
WE ACCEPT: A battered copy of Lace II that's been sitting in the basement so long it smells like damp concrete and sacks of Kitty Litter
WE DON'T WANT: That copy of Bridges of Madison County which has been sitting in the basement until it has the color of garden mulch, the consistency of angelfood cake, and the odor of a Junior High gymbag
I hope these guidelines are helpful. This hope will last until the first customer arrives with a banana box of books and says "I threw away everything that wasn't moldy because I read on your website that you like dirty books."

Apple's stock might have fallen in recent months, but Al Gore still has faith in AAPL.
The former US vice president, and Apple board member has triggered a share package that was awarded to him by Steve Jobs.
The award gave him the rights to purchase 59,000 Apple shares for $7.475 each. He exercised the options on 15 January, and was awarded them on Friday, when the stock closed (mysteriously) at exactly $500 a share.
This means that his investment cost him just $440,000 but was worth around $29.5m that day.
Gore could sell the shares at any time.
Apple board member Al Gore revealed details of Steve Jobs' instructions to Apple staff about how to carry on after his death back in October 2011. Gore detailed Jobs' insistence that no-one should ask the question 'What would Steve do?' after his death, instead telling them to follow their 'own voice'. "He used to talk initially about how after Walt Disney died, the company always got in trouble about asking 'what would Walt do in this situation?'. And he made it very clear 'I don't want that'. He made it clear to Tim Cook and everyone else 'Don't ask what Steve would have done. Follow your own voice.'" Gore said.
Al Gore: Steve Jobs' best invention was Apple itself
Al Gore refers to 'new iPhones' coming in October
Gore says supercomputing can be killer app in climate change
AAPL plummets to $485.92, lowest level in almost a year

My most recent post with a location tag is Inversion! When you go to the bottom of that post, the location tag you'll see this:
Location: Brady's Hot Springs, NV, USA.Clicking on the location link on that post (and on the link above) will take you to Google Maps and a map view as shown below, except there will also be an orange "A" pointing to my chosen location for Brady's Hot Springs. Zooming in on the map (from the link on the original post and from the above link) will take you to the exact location I chose.
View Bradys Hot Springs in a Larger Map
(an orange location marker will not be shown if you click this link)
When using the location tag in the blog editor, I can search for a location or zoom in on a small map or satellite view provided through Google Maps. Often, the searching tool won't take me where I want to go, or it will only get me to someplace approximate (like Nevada in general, instead of some specific spot or mountain range), and it will sometimes take me to some entirely erroneous place. I can instead just zoom around and drag the location marker to the spot I want, a spot that can be as exact as the largest zoom level shown on Google Maps. At that point, I can add any label I want to describe the location, instead of being stuck with a generic label generated by the small version of Google Maps .
Older posts, those created before I was using this feature, have the potential for having location added—and I've currently added them back through about the beginning of March, 2010. Not all posts have or will have locations; these include posts with multiple locations (year-end meme posts, for example), posts that are mostly about ideas, posts where locations would show where I live, and some posts that might show specific locations for my work sites.
Prior to the advent of Blogger's location tag, I relied heavily on MSRMaps and The National Map 2.0 Viewer by the USGS for links to locations and on Google Maps for embedded views. I will still be using these, although MSRMaps has become fairly intermittent since their shut-down announcement, despite being kept online past the original shut-down date. I like MSRMaps' versions of topo maps better than the TNM 2.0 Viewer's: MSRMaps has thicker topo lines and has a square-ish rather than heavily east-west elongate viewing space. I also like the MSRMaps use of map scales better than that of the the TNM.
P.S. Many older posts were reformatted by Blogger's switch to the new editor. Blogger/Google modified the way they parse older HTML, and going into edit mode on those older posts further modifies the HTML. I have changed the formatting for some of my more popular older posts, but not for very many posts older than January, 2012. I find this part of the new editor very irritating.
P.P.S. I sometimes want to list bizarre names or places for locations, like "None" for this post. Searching on "none" in the small map in my blog editor, I get a small lake in Mississippi, linked to below for your amusement. And if I want to use something like "The West" or "western U.S.," I have to come up with my own location point for the linked-to map.

The city council of São Paulo, South America's biggest city, has adopted legislation calling for a Heterosexual Pride Day to be celebrated on the third Sunday of each December.
São Paulo Mayor Gilberto Kassab must sign the legislation for it to become law and has said only that he is studying it. His office declined Wednesday to say whether he supports the proposal.
The legislation's author, Carlos Apolinario, said the idea for a Heterosexual Pride Day is "not anti-gay but a protest against the privileges the gay community enjoys."
As an example, he mentioned how São Paulo's huge gay pride day parade is held every year on Paulista Avenue, one of the main thoroughfares in this city of 20 million people, while the March for Jesus organized by evangelical groups is not allowed on the same avenue.
"I respect gays and I am against any kind of aggression made against them," Apolinario said. "I have no trouble coexisting with gays as long as their behavior is normal."
The Brazilian Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, and Transgender Association criticized the legislation, saying it could provoke homophobic violence.
"How many LGBTs will be attacked because of the message that only heterosexuality makes someone a moral person and a good citizen," the association said in a statement.
"The celebration of heterosexual pride is inappropriate because it belittles the just cause of the LGBT community," the statement added. "Unlike homosexuals, heterosexuals are not discriminated against simply for being heterosexuals."
In a recent report, the gay rights group Grupo Gay da Bahia said 260 gays were murdered last year in Brazil, up 113 percent from five years earlier.
The Associated Press contributed to this report.
