Fairwheel Bikes, a Tucson, Arizona based boutique shop known for their comprehensive selection of high-end exotica, have ventured into new territory with the opening of a new bicycle gallery in Portland, Oregon called Het Fairwheel Podium.
The space is roughly the size of two cargo containers. Finished with simple off-white walls and wooden floors, it gives Het Fairwheel Podium's exhibits all of the attention. The gallery will be used to showcase a wide variety of the shop's wares and a rotating collection of bikes from local builders and pro riders.
"[We want] to show parts to people that they're not going to regularly see, to bring a little boutique gallery to physical presence, to pull it off of blogs and websites and things into a space where people can actually check it out," said Fairwheel's web developer and gallery co-owner Emiliano Jordan.
ADA and Lightweight wheels are notably similar in design and construction but while you see quite a bit of the latter, ADA creator Cees Beers mostly does design work for others now
Though the gallery is expected to draw a strong local crowd in bike-crazy Portland, Jordan also expects the appeal of the gallery to extend far beyond the greater metro area, mirroring the international clientele of the mainstream Fairwheel shop. One recent customer flew to Tucson from Switzerland just to go over details of a bike purchase.
A tour through the gallery — even in its early state — is enough to prove that the shop has accomplished its goal. Littered throughout the modest space are open glass cases filled with carbon and machined aluminum components from the likes of THM-Carbones, AX Lightness, Tune, Extralite, Schmolke, New Ultimate, Soul-Kozak, ENVE Composites, KCNC, Far and Near, eecycleworks and countless others.
These are items many people may have seen pictures of but few have seen in person, never mind handled. There are even extremely rare finds such as THM-Carbones' prototype carbon fiber rear derailleur – estimated to cost around US$3,000 – Tune's new magnetic rear hub and ADA carbon wheels.
THM-Carbones developed this ultralight rear derailleur but ultimately decided that it was going to be too expensive to introduce to the public
Over the past few years, Fairwheel Bikes have earned a reputation for some remarkable project bikes that have occasionally made the rounds in online forums and the tradeshow circuit. Included in the mix is an insanely light complete road bike weighing just 2.7kg (6lb), a Titus 29er titanium hardtail with a thoroughly re-engineered sequential-shifting Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 transmission, and a variety of special paint jobs.
Fairwheel Bikes' Titus titanium 29er would be an impressive rig on its own but what really makes it special is the re-engineered sequential shifting Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 system
It's those amazing Di2 reworks that have earned the shop the most visibility in our eyes, though. What started out as more basic adaptations for mountain bike use have now morphed into something much more complex and ambitious. Fairwheel have enlisted the aid of a computer engineer and former hacker who operates in the shadows from his home in Hawaii and normally charges US$1,000 for his consulting work.
Fairwheel Bikes retasked a Shimano Dura-Ace Di2 satellite shifter for their sequential-shift mountain bike project
"We can't really say much about him," said Jason Woznick – better known as "madcow" on forums and essentially the public face of Fairwheel Bikes. "He's a computer engineer that writes kernels and lives in Hawaii and is a bike fanatic. He just likes doing this kind of fun stuff – I think it breaks up the monotony of his day job. He's been a friend of mine for a long time and donates his time – we otherwise couldn't afford him."
Woznick says the Di2 projects that the company's secret developer has created thus far are just the tip of the iceberg. Supposedly, there's much more potential given the right programming. Woznick adds that there are some patents pending surrounding the development work that may be sold or possibly put into a limited production run. After riding the sequential-shift Di2 system ourselves – albeit very briefly and gingerly on account of non-glued tubular tires – we'd love to see something like this more widely available.
Still, "widely available" is a relative term here as much of Fairwheel Bike's inventory and work caters heavily to the very well heeled. Included in the company catalog are US$1,500 cranksets (without chainrings), $580 rear hubs, $700 seatposts, $140 water bottle cages, $1,200 road brake calipers and $825 road handlebars. In all fairness, there's also a wide variety of machined aluminum and color anodized bits under US$50 but even so, we're generally not talking about stuff that's affordable to the average rider.
THM-Carbones' Clavicula is one of the rarest mountain bike cranksets currently available
Despite this, Woznick says Fairwheel's numbers are steadily climbing. "We actually continue to increase in sales," he said. "Not that all of our customers are ultra-rich but for the guys that have money, when there's a recession and they lose 20 percent, they're still well off." Moreover, Woznick sees no end in sight to what some folks are willing to pay to have the very best.
"There's absolutely no upper limit.," he said. "I know of companies that have done jewel-encrusted head tube badges.The clientele shrinks with each step in price so at some point, there's only going to be handful of people that would want a jewel-encrusted head tube but they're out there. They're the same guys that want a $30,000 watch or have a Ferrari collection or just prefer bikes to Ferraris."
Geoff McFetridge's graphics work would normally be very expensive but luckily, some personal connections earned Fairwheel Bikes a favor
"You'd be surprised how much goes to upper-middle-class guys that aren't rich, that aren't making over six figures a year," Woznick said. "You can put together a bike with the upper end of all of this stuff for $14,000, $15,000, so it's really not that big of a jump over the £8,000, $9,000, $10,000 that you'd be looking for a Di2 whatever."
Contrary to the shop's online persona, the brick-and-mortar presence is decidedly more humble in nature and Woznick says it was a slow start getting into the high-end business. "It's a 60-year-old building that was a grocery store in the Forties," he said. "It looks like any other bicycle shop in middle America. It's filled with Treks and Specializeds. There are a few of our projects hanging up on the walls but 99 percent of what's done there is just day-to-day, regular bike shop stuff. Some people fly in to build project bikes but most of this kind of work is done off-site.
"We had a customer that wanted a really light bike a decade ago and we had to start purchasing from some really exclusive companies in Europe to do it and then we started adding a few more pieces to the order and then adding more. Over the years we've built the clientele and built our relationships with the manufacturers so we've been able to increase our volumes both in terms of what they'd allow us to buy and what we could sell. Nowadays our biggest problem is that we can't fill the demand."
Fairwheel Bikes not only have an impressive collection of Tune hubs but even have the company's new model with the ultralight magnetic driver mechanism
Whether or not you can afford any of it, Het Fairwheel Podium is still worth a visit if you're in the area, if only for the overwhelming selection of 'bike porn' available for viewing. The gallery will hold regular public hours on Saturdays but it'll also be open by appointment during the week.

Fire Island Wind Project Approved: A Wind Powering America Success Story
November 21, 2011
With a current statewide wind energy capacity of approximately 10 megawatts (MW), Alaska will soon more than double its wind energy production thanks to a power purchase agreement signed in October. Chugach Electric Association (CEA), Alaska's largest electric utility, agreed to terms with Cook Inlet Region Inc. (CIRI) to purchase the energy produced by the 17.6-MW Fire Island Wind Project, allowing the project to move closer to completion.
According to Jim Jager, CIRI corporate communications director, the project began in the 1990s when CEA tried to diversify its power generation portfolio. CEA was interested in wind energy as an alternative to natural gas and conducted a survey of south-central Alaska to identify the best potential wind sites. Fire Island quickly rose to the top of the list because of proximity to the load center, land availability, lack of conflicting land uses, and a relatively low risk of potential environmental impacts.
"As you go down the checklist, Fire Island is a very attractive site. CIRI owns the majority of Fire Island, so CEA approached CIRI and asked if we would be interested. We said yes. That's when the Fire Island Wind Project was born," Jager said.
Soon after, anemometer tests to determine the strength of the wind resource commenced. According to Jager, around this time CEA's board members changed and the utility dropped out of the project. At that point, CIRI proceeded on its own to search for project funding.
CIRI qualified for $19 million in funding through a Section 1603 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act tax credit for the project and $25 million of state grant funding for submarine and mainland transmission infrastructure that would link the wind farm with the Anchorage electrical grid. CIRI began preliminary construction, but before the project could move forward, the project had to overcome many hurdles, including finding a utility to purchase the power, demonstrating that the integration of wind into the relatively small Alaska grid would not impact power quality, and obtaining approval from the Regulatory Commission of Alaska.
Although many of the local utilities and power cooperatives were initially apprehensive about how 17.6 MW of wind energy would be integrated into the power grid, CIRI was able to ease those concerns with support from the National Renewable Energy Laboratory (NREL).
According to Brian Hirsch, senior project leader for NREL's Alaska initiative, the lab's role in the project was to provide technical assistance and analysis on grid stability and integration issues and resource assessment verification. Primarily through NREL, the Department of Energy Wind Program has provided technical support for the deployment of wind technologies in Alaska for more than 10 years, including direct funding to the Renewable Energy Alaska Project that has worked to support projects like Fire Island and other renewable energy activities across the state. The Fire Island project has been a long-term goal of the Alaska Wind Working Group, which works to educate stakeholders about using wind energy in the Last Frontier.
Once the technical concerns were alleviated, power purchase negotiations continued until CEA signed on to purchase the energy at a flat net price of $97 per megawatt-hour for 25 years beginning on January 1, 2013. The project is expected to supply approximately 4% of CEA's electric load. Although the cost of energy for consumers will be slightly higher than the current average price, the flat rate is expected to make the cost more attractive as gas and power prices increase in the future. In its October 10 ruling, the Regulatory Commission of Alaska approved the project, indicating that the project is a good way to support the Alaska Legislators' push to expand the use of renewable energy at a very minimal cost to CEA's members. The true benefit of the project will be determined over time based on the actual cost of future natural gas prices and the real costs of the operational integration of the wind farm.
The project will feature 11 GE 1.6-MW turbines configured for the Arctic environment and will cost approximately $65 million, which Jager credits to a combination of events.
"Right now there's a bit of an oversupply of wind turbines on the market, so that decreases the prices of the equipment," Jager said.
Jager also said that the project was able to take advantage of the tax credit for renewable energy projects and that due to the state of the economy, construction companies are willing to bid lower on project contracts than a few years ago.
"The confluence of those three events has helped to keep the cost of this project down," he said.
The Fire Island project will employ between 100 and 120 workers during construction, with on-island workers numbering between 80 and 100 at any given time. Though on-island work won't resume until Cook Inlet is ice-free again in April 2012, plans call for shore-side construction work on transmission infrastructure in the near future. Jager expects to generate the first power in the beginning of September 2012, with the project online soon thereafter. Six permanent positions will be created for the operation and maintenance of the facility.
Although a great deal of time has been devoted to bringing this project closer to fruition, the delay was not the result of a lack of support from the local community.
"The community support has been overwhelming. We've done public polling that shows that in excess of 80% of the public supports the idea of diversifying with Fire Island Wind Power. A significant majority, more than 70%, said they would be happy to pay an extra $2 a month, if that's what it takes, to bring Fire Island to generation," Jager said.
The involvement of DOE and Wind Powering America was initiated early in Alaska, primarily focused on the implementation of wind technology in rural parts of the state.
"Fire Island has been a very interesting project since it was envisioned," said Ian Baring-Gould, Wind Powering America's national technical director. "Not only is the project situated right off the coast of Alaska's most populous city, it is right off the flight path for Ted Stevens International Airport and will serve as another clear example of how the state is working to obtain 50% of its electric generation from renewable and alternative sources by 2025, becoming a living example of the state's motto, 'North to the Future.' This project also clearly demonstrates how over time organizations with differing goals and responsibilities can work together to implement a new technology such as wind. The integration of wind into the Alaskan Railbelt grid is not a trivial issue, and it required the technical collaboration of many organizations and individuals. The leadership and staff of Chugach Electric should be commended for their efforts, as should the leaders of CIRI, who have worked tirelessly, and at times against seemingly insurmountable odds, to get this project this far."
According to Hirsch, Fire Island Wind Project is an important step for Alaskan wind energy as a whole.
"Fire Island is opening the door for large-scale renewable energy on the Railbelt, both for Independent Power Producers and utility-led projects. We're already seeing some additional development as a result of it in terms of other large-scale wind projects," Hirsch said.

HARRISON, N.J. – Fresh off their takedown of the LA Galaxy, Chivas USA picked up a valuable point on the road on Wednesday night with a thrilling 1-1 draw against the Eastern Conference-leading New York Red Bulls.
Juan Pablo Ángel scored the opener early in the second half in his return to Red Bull Arena, but Kenny Cooper continued his torrid scoring streak by knocking in the equalizer shortly after.
The draw saw Chivas USA move to 4-6-2 on the season, and extended their unbeaten streak to three games. It also marked the first time the 8-3-3 Red Bulls failed to win a game since April 22, a stretch of five matches.
The match began with both teams doing most of the battling in the midfield, and aside from a shot from distance early on from Chivas USA midfielder Nick LaBrocca, neither goalkeeper had much to do early.
Things picked up as the half wore on, and each side had some decent looks on goal but could not convert. The Red Bulls' best chance came when defender Roy Miller hit a shot wide from a tight angle after some individual brilliance down the flank allowed him to break in on goal, while Chivas forward Ángel drilled a shot off the left post in the 25th minute.
But the former Red Bulls star didn't make any mistake with his next chance. Following an early corner kick two minutes out of halftime, Rauwshan McKenzie headed the ball to Ángel and the Colombian buried a spectacular side volley past Ryan Meara and into the back of the net.
The Red Bulls responded quickly, scoring the equalizer in the 56th minute when Cooper knocked in his 11th goal of the season off excellent buildup. Right back Brandon Barklage unleashed a beautiful through-ball down the right touchline that found a streaking Dane Richards. The Jamaican international then unleashed a precise low cross that found Cooper wide open in front of the net for the easy finish past Dan Kennedy.
The goal was Cooper's fourth in as many games and pulled him even with San Jose Earthquakes forward Chris Wondolowski for the league lead.
The hosts piled on most of the pressure from there as they searched for a winner, and they came close on a couple of instances. Chivas USA held on, however, and escaped Red Bull Arena with a big point.
The Red Bulls will now take a break from league play before returning to the field to take on the Chicago Fire at Toyota Park on June 17. Chivas USA, meanwhile, will host the Seattle Sounders at The Home Depot Center on Saturday prior to the international break.

North-western Cambodia
Earth : Asia : Southeast Asia : Cambodia : North-western Cambodia
North-western Cambodia is a region of Cambodia and includes the provinces of Banteay Meanchey, Oddar Meanchey, Preah Vihear, Siem Reap and the part of Stoeng Treng to the west of the Mekong.
Other destinations
The north is dominated by the Dangrek Mountains which form the natural barrier between Cambodia and Thailand. Much of the southern part of this region is very flat and fertile leading towards the Tonle Sap - Cambodia's great lake.
Siem Reap is by far the largest city, Sisophon and Poipet both small towns, while Anlong Veng just feels like a large village.
Much of north-western Cambodia live in abject poverty, with the province of Siem Reap being one of the poorest in the country, despite the valuable Angkor Archaeological Park being located within. Like the other regions, infrastructure is a new concept in North-Western Cambodia, with only the national highways paved. Out of the towns, electricity is obtained by using car batteries, at a high cost. Despite the obvious negative effects that a lack of development can have, an advantage (if there was one) would be that the region has been largely left alone by tourists, so those who do tread off the tourist trail get an insight into Cambodia's beautiful struggle.
Get in
By plane
The region is served by Siem Reap - Angkor International Airport [1] (IATA: REP | ICAO: VDSR) which has has frequent domestic flights from Phnom Penh and is internationally linked from the following destinations:
By land
The region is linked by road to three Thai border crossings.
National Highway 5 and 6 were completely re-surfaced in 2009 and run from the Aranyaprathet/Poipet border crossing to Sisophon (1 hour) and Siem Reap (2-3 hrs).
National Highway 67, re-surfaced in 2009 runs from the Thailand/Anlong Veng border crossing, south to Siem Reap (2 hours).
National highway 68, re-surfaced in 2011 runs from the Thailand/O'Smach border crossing south via Samraong to Kralanh (2 hours), where it joins National Highway 6 for Siem Reap
National Highway 6 from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap (5 - 7 hours) is a popular route by bus.
By boat
Hydrofoils ply the route across Tonle Sap Lake from Phnom Penh to Siem Reap (6 hours), stopping stopping at Kampong Chhnang, UDS20-25/person.
One boat a day leaves Battambang in Cardamom and Elephant Mountains, destined for Siem Reap (5 - 8 hours). The duration of the trip depends on the level of the river and lake.
Get around
If you're only making your way between towns in the region, then the days of rough, impassable roads and adventure are over. Most main routes are now paved, with the exception of only a few.
By Bus
There are a range of bus companies serving all towns large enough to be worth visiting.
By Taxi
Where the bus companies don't go, one should usually be able to travel by taxi. For the best chance of success, organize your taxi the night before, otherwise an early start may be needed to secure a place in a share-taxi.
By Pick-up Truck
It's not as simple to organize a pick-up truck as it is a taxi, but they have a different market - budget outside tickets. Used for passengers and cargo, pick-up trucks head everywhere, providing a broad network, linking most every lonely village. If it wasn't for these banged up wagons, most of the region wouldn't have access to affordable transport. Simply stand on the edge of the road, and flag the first one down.
By Kuyon (tractor)
For those outside town trying to cover a distance of 15km or so, hitching a ride on a local tractor can be as simple as flagging the first one down. Be aware that this is, effectively, hitch hiking, and comes with the usual dangers. USD$0.75 per 15km would be appropriate.
Stay safe
North Western Cambodia is home to the infamous K5 mine belt, a (land) mine field 700km long and 500m wide, that runs parallel to the border with Thailand. Although parts of this minefield have been cleared, much remains. When travelling in remote areas, never stray too far off the road or track, it's just not worth the risk.
Get out
Three of Cambodia's six overland crossings with Thailand are in this region:

The World Cup and Dow 17,000 could very well collide in the next few days, and Americans should be a whole lot more stoked about them than they are.
There's nothing we can do about the former, so let's dive into the latter, one of the most under-appreciated rallies we've ever seen.
The S&P banged out its 19th record high of the year on Monday before stalling out in yesterday's session. That pushed the index past the 18 closing highs scored for the entirety of 1992 into 13th place for all time, according to Ryan Detrick.
The leader in the clubhouse delivered a whopping 77 times in 1995. Let's take baby steps. The next one — 22 in 1991 — could fall next week. Don't count it out.
There's a round number on the horizon for the Dow, and when those kind of plateaus beckon, the market usually obliges. The momentum is clearly in place.
So perhaps we see that 17,000 number fall, though stocks are looking sluggish early. Maybe something unexpected will come along and draw cash off the sidelines.
I just scratched Cliff Asness's chalkboard with that one.
"Every time someone says, 'There is a lot of cash on the sidelines,' a tiny part of my soul dies," the AQR Capital founder once said. "There are no sidelines. Those saying this seem to envision a seller of stocks moving her money to cash and awaiting a chance to return. But they always ignore that this seller sold to somebody, who presumably moved a precisely equal amount of cash off the sidelines."
As it stands now, it's not the individual that's supporting the bid as much as it is the corporations, according to LPL Financial. Here's a cool chart on how the market's getting tugged in different directions and who's doing the tugging.
Jeffrey Kleintop said he expects companies and individuals to continue to be net buyers, while the others remain sellers in the coming quarters.
"Risks to stocks would be a slowdown in corporate buybacks and a return to selling by individuals," he warned. "On the other hand, fuel for the stock market could come from a re-allocation back toward stocks or a slowing in the pace of selling and reallocating to bonds by institutions, as interest rates rise and bond returns suffer."
Key market gauges: Losses for futures on the Dow /quotes/zigman/17899764/realtime YMM4 and the S&P /quotes/zigman/20258906/realtime ESM4 are picking up speed. Asia /quotes/zigman/6959860/realtime XX:ADOW closed mostly in the red. The Nikkei /quotes/zigman/5986735/realtime JP:NIK was an exception. Europe /quotes/zigman/2380150/realtime XX:SXXP is pulling away from multiyear highs. Keep an eye on oil /quotes/zigman/2196848/realtime CLN4 throughout the session in the wake of Islamic insurgents' move to take over Mosul, though analysts don't appear to be too surprised and prices aren't fluctuating much.
Check out Michael Moore's finger-pointing Facebook post and the comments section for some spirited debate on what's going on in Iraq.
The quote of the day: "People think there's a rigid class system here, but dukes have been known to marry chorus girls. Some have even married Americans." — Prince Philip, who celebrated his 93rd birthday over the weekend.
The buzz: The overnight banter focused on one thing — the stunning upset of Eric Cantor at the hands of little-known, tea party-backed econ professor, Dave Brat.
Synaptic /quotes/zigman/87211/delayed /quotes/nls/syna SYNA shares are up almost 20% in premarket trading after the company said it had agreed to acquire smartphone- and tablet-display driver company Renesas SP Drivers. In the process, Synaptic also raised its revenue outlook.
American International Group /quotes/zigman/557836/delayed /quotes/nls/aig AIG shares aren't reacting much to the news from late Tuesday that Peter Hancock will take over for Robert Benmosche, effective Sept. 1. Benmosche will keep his advisory role at AIG.
Google /quotes/zigman/30194416/delayed /quotes/nls/goog GOOG is at it again, using some $500 million of its pocket change to buy satellite-imaging startup Skybox. Google is also reportedly pushing into energy markets.
Apple /quotes/zigman/68270/delayed /quotes/nls/aapl AAPL and Starbucks /quotes/zigman/20720/delayed /quotes/nls/sbux SBUX now find themselves under investigation by the EU over sweeter-than-everyone-else-gets tax breaks.
United Airlines /quotes/zigman/617037/delayed /quotes/nls/ual UAL shares are down in 1%. Deutsche Lufthansa /quotes/zigman/184134/realtime DE:LHA may be the culprit after a shocking profit warning.
The blogosphere has been all abuzz over this list of the top 50 financial advisor blogs, as measured by impact across the web. Lots of great resources on here.
The chart of the day: The whole thing is rigged. If you hang around markets, you hear that all the time. It's reached a fever pitch lately, with the whole HFT stuff. But J.C. Parets of the All Star Charts blog doesn't see it that way at all. In fact, he says "the market is probably more fair today than at any point in American history." He uses this chart to show how it's evolved over the years. "No one said you had to participate," Parets wrote. "I urge you to find something out there that is this big and this liquid that you believe is more fair for the average participant."
The call of the day: John Hempton, fund manager for Bronte Capital, just embarked on a journey aimed at substantiating his short position in Valeant Pharmaceuticals /quotes/zigman/122461/delayed /quotes/nls/vrx VRX . He starts off by saying it's "the hottest stock in the hottest sector (pharmaceuticals and biotech). It also has the strangest business model: It acquires existing companies, strips them of most of their research and development and a large proportion of their other staff, and extracts huge margins."
Hempton, however, is approaching this examination seemingly with an open mind, but he's clearly out to prove there's some smoke and mirrors going on here. "There is a possibility that the whole Valeant exercise is something from the 'Wizard of Oz'. Profits are going up nicely if you pay no attention to that man behind the curtain — the man being the large restructuring and one-time items." Visit his blog for updates on the ongoing dive into Valeant's balance sheet.

Most people that are into body modifications started with getting their ears pierced. Ear piercings are the oldest, most common, less extreme and more accepted of all body modifications. Piercing the ears can be found in all different kinds of cultures all over the world throughout history. Both men and women have been known to pierce their ears. Depending on the size and shape of one's ear, there are many different parts of the ear that can be pierced.
When your Ear is your Piercing Ground:
The ear lobe is the easiest, most common part of the ear that is pierced. This part of the ear can be stretched and gauged because of the type of tissue located in this area. A piercing gun is used to pierce the ear lobe. The ear piercing gun is designed in such a way, so that the ear can be pierced with the jewelry and the earring back be put on the end of the post of the earring, all in one shot. The cartilage of the ear, at the top part of the helix, is another popular area to have pierced. This piercing can be pierced with a piercing gun, however, it is not recommended because the force of the gun can cause cartilage to shatter and take the area longer to heal. The other areas of the ear are usually pierced with a hollow body piercing needle.
The helix is the upper rim part of the ear that goes down the outside about half way and meets the lobe. Many people have their helix pierced multiple times and put captive bead rings in them. The conch is the portion of the ear that looks like a "shell" adjacent to the ear canal. A barbell or captive bead ring is mostly worn in this area. The anti-helix is a ridge located under the helix and it contains the snug and rook. These piercings are very painful and harder to heal then most of the other ear piercings. The snug, located on the lower part of the anti-helix, is pierced with curved or straight barbells. The rook, the upper part of the anti-helix close to the head, can be pierced with a curved barbell or a captive bead ring. The folds of cartilage located closest to the ear canal is call a daith piercing. This can have a different variety of small gauge body jewelry put into the piercing. The tragus piercing is the "little nub" over top of the ear canal. The body jewelry used for this piercing are usually a captive bead ring, curved barbell or even labret studs. The ridge located above the ear lobe has been labeled the anti-tragus. This is another painful piercing in the ear. And this piercing usually needs a curved barbell.
Another piercing that is often done is called the industrial. The industrial is when two separate piercings are connected with one barbell. Usually piercings within the helix are used to create an industrial piercing but some use other piercings in the ear and connect them. An orbital piercing is much like an industrial piercing in the sense that it connects two or more piercings, but instead of a barbell a ring is used.

It's called the TT 'offroad concept', and it's many things rolled into one yellow lump of metal.First off, it's just a concept, but previews what Audi could do with the TT. 'The offroad concept provides a glimpse of how we might imagine a new model in the future TT family,' explains Audi's technical chief Dr Ulrich Hackenberg.Underneath sits a turbocharged 2.0-litre turbo FSI engine producing 292bhp and 380Nm of torque, with the exhaust manifold integrated into the cylinder head, and indirect injection supplementing direct injection for better fuel efficiency. Clever stuff.A separating clutch links the engine to an electric motor producing a further 220Nm of torque, integrated into the six-speed automatic gearbox, that works with the engine to operate the front wheels. On the rear axle sits the second electric motor, producing its own 270Nm. When driven solely by the rear axle electric motor, the TT offroad concept is capable of an 130kph top speed The battery - mounted just ahead of the rear axle for a 54\:46 front/rear weight distribution - stores enough charge for a 50km purely electric range, and can be charged by plugging it into an Audi 'wall box'. It also premieres a wireless charging function; you simply drive and park onto a 'plate' which sucks the electricity from the floor, inverts the current and feeds it into the electrical system into the car. Very, very clever stuff.And it's quick, too. This TT offroad concept will accelerate from 0-100kph in 5.2 seconds (quicker than a TT-S Coupe, no less), and will hit an electronically limited top speed of 250kph.When driven solely by the rear axle electric motor, the TT offroad concept is capable of an 130kph top speed (a rear-wheel-drive TT SUV\\!), while underneath it's based on the regular TT - think MQB platform - with the front suspension largely made of aluminium. The body is made of the stuff too.Step inside and there's space for four, as well as the interior elements from the TT - think 12.3in TFT display and 3D graphics - as well as elements from the Q family. In fact, Audi even references its own Q3. Take a look around the body and you'll spot the familiar TT design cues, though here jacked up to go, well, wherever you want to really.It's a clear sign Audi believes the TT 'brand' can be expanded beyond the current coupe and convertible into a family of cars - think the expanding Range Rover family, or, to take things yet further, Citroen's standalone DS brand. Does the world need more TTs, or should Audi keep its sports car pure? Vijay Pattni 23 April 2014 Meet the 408bhp Audi TT offroader

I just found out. He was from Seattle. I met him in a bar in Minneapolis. Seahawks football brought us together. He called me Steve Largent for years. He was a punk rock skateboard kinda person. One of his favorite memories was Steve Largent visiting his school as a kid. He had a spinal condition as a boy (pretty sure it was the same one Largent's kid has). He told me that story at least 15 times. I gave him a Seahawks wristband once and he acted like I had given him a thousand dollars. Whenever our paths crossed he would squawk 'Go Seahawks!' Anyway, he spent his last year living in Hawaii and kayaking and sailing. Died of some diabetes shit at the age of 35. No Godspeeds nor thoughts and prayers, please. Just enjoy Seahawks football this weekend like I know you will, everybody. The Seahawks and our friendships are some of the best things happening.
Oh. His name was Ethan Rice, on the off chance anybody from Seattle knew him.

I like the oil coming out of my dishes when cooking. But no way it has turned out for any dish. My sister have told me that if you pressure cook the brinjal, even if we had less oil it will come out. So I thought of pressure cooking, Cannot believe my eyes whatever oil I put it came out. The taste was also good with no masalas. If your pulao has no masala you can add in the gravy.
Brinjal - 10
Tamarind - a small ball
Coriander powder - 4 tsp
Oil - 3 tbsp
Salt - as per taste
To grind:
Roasted peanuts - 2 tbsp
Tomatoes - 4
Garlic - 4 pods
Red chilly - 10 (soak in water)
Curry leaves - 5
Slit the brinjal, halfway do not make pieces. It has to be whole. After you cut put them in water so that the color will not change. Keep aside. Soak the tamarind in hot water.
Dry roast the peanuts and grind, then add all the ingredients given to grind. Make to a smooth paste.
In a cooker add 3 tbsp of oil add brinjals and fry for 5 minutes. Then add the ground paste and 2 cups of tamarind water,coriander powder and pressure cook. Switch it off after 2 whistles.
Best side dish for pulao or any variety rice like coconut rice,..
Sending this to Vardhini's and Sangee's 'Dish it out' event.

Southington will soon start the search for its next music star.
Auditions for the next Connecticut Icon will take place Saturday, Sept. 21 from 10 a.m. to 3 p.m. at Derynoski Elementary School. All auditions will be in the form of A cappella.
Formerly known as Southington Icon, the competition invites all residents ages nine and up to audition. Twelve finalists from audition day will compete on multiple days during the 45th Annual Apple Harvest Festival.
Based on the audience's vote and judges' input, the winner receives $1,000 in cash along with the opportunity to record his or her voice professionally at Onyx Soundlab recording studio in Manchester. Several record companies may receive these recordings. Winners may also have the opportunity to sing at a variety of local restaurants and venues.
Judges will announce the winner on the last day of the festival, October 13.
New Britain resident Jomo Majka was the winner of last year's Connecticut Icon competition. His daughter pushed him to try out after taking a nearly 20-year hiatus from singing. A native of Poland, Majka sang in rock bands before coming to the United States.
"I was surprised I got in, and even more surprised that I actually won," Majka said.
Majka continues to sing locally as a member of the Broadstreet Blues Band, which has slowly evolved its music from jazz into hard rock. He said he encourages all talented singers to audition for the competition, even if they think other people sing better.
"Just go for it," Majka said. "When you hear other people sing, don't let it get to your head that they are better than you."
Majka auditioned for American Idol a few years before his audition, but did not succeed to the next level. Majka said he did not let this get the best of him.
"You just have to keep trying," he said.
Connecticut Icon Organizer Melissa Salmon-Erickson said that more than 100 people auditioned last year, and she expects more than 300 people to audition this year. Erickson said the purpose of the competition is to "let other people know and see their talent," and "to remind us of their potential and their dream."
Erickson also said the event is a great way to bring music "to the forefront" of Connecticut, especially since the state does not offer as many opportunities as other states, like New York, to audition for musical competitions.
"The arts are very important." "It's not always supported the way it should."
If anyone would like to reserve a spot and audition earlier, pre-register online at www.connecticuticon.com.

It's hard to believe we're already halfway through the sign-up period of this year's annual Build A Business Competition.
This year, we're seeing more businesses than ever launch online stores and compete to sell as much as they can during the competition period. Perhaps it's because they know they're in the running to win a five-day trip to Richard Branson's private island. Perhaps it's because they know there has never been a better time to launch an online business.
But we've got some news that will throw this year's competition into high gear. We're doing something we've never done before.
We're partnering up with mentor and entrepreneur Tim Ferriss to bring an additional winner to Necker Island – and Tim is going to pick the winner.
When we launched the competition, we announced that five lucky entrepreneurs would join our mentors on Necker Island.
But today, Tim launched the Muse Build A Business Competition, where he will pick an additional winner to bring on our week-long island retreat. Not only that, but this winner is in the running to be included as a case study in Tim Ferriss's upcoming book titled Muse. It'll contain the stories of some of the most promising startups Tim has encountered throughout his time as an angel investor.
Tim is also opening up some interesting ways to stay engaged throughout the competition. He'll keep an eye on those who build a big following on social media, and create compelling video content to update their audiences.
Want to learn more about how you can enter Tim Ferriss's Muse Build A Business Competition? Take a trip over to Tim's blog to read more.
Here's How it Works:
The rules are the same as our larger Build A Business Competition. All you have to do is come up with a product, open a Shopify store, enter the competition – then start selling.
At the end of the competition, we'll compile a list of businesses that have sold the most over a two-month period. Tim Ferriss will then use those sales, combined with your social media presence and video creation, to determine the winner who will come with him to Necker Island.
You can enter the competition from today until March 31st, 2015, and any Shopify store that was opened after June 1st, 2014 may join the competition. You'll be able to keep ramping up sales until May 31, 2015 when the competition officially closes.
The competition is open to residents of US (select states), UK, AUS, NZ, Canada, Spain and Denmark. Although strict gaming laws prevent us from making prizes available in every country, everyone can participate in the competition.
The Prizes:
As a refresher, each of our winners will receive:

This weekend I went to visit my sister in Brighton, she was doing Videopia at White Night.
We had a lovely weekend eating a lot & wondering around antique shops & cafes, I only took my film SLR so pics will have to wait.
I bought this lovely plate from the Flea Market, it's 'Beardy Man' by Donna Wilson & I got it for under half the price of what they are new.
I want to have the matching egg cup!
(& I love his rosie cheeks)
Also, when it comes to makes I have done the following; a tote bag! I know that maybe I have gone a bit crazy putting this design on everything, but it's my favourite, so I am allowed to. It's a tote that is perfect for A4, made from 100% organic cotton on the outside & inside is vintage fabric (a lovely old bed sheet that I have been ripping up), it also has an inside pocket to put your phone & wallet, I need to add a little button to make sure nobody goes picking a pocket or two, but this one I am keeping for myself anyway. If you would like me to make you one, I'll charge you twelve English pounds & would be happy.
Oh & another thing, I have made a purse for a friends lady friend, I hope she likes it, making things for other girls as presents is tricky, I'm a perfectionist in my mind but not in reality.
I make my wallets from recycled leather from a local cobblers & the lining is from the recycling centre, I love buying from there. Here are some images.
I can make you one of these too, £20 please :)
I can make you one of these too, £20 please :)
Thank you, happy Halloweeeeeen!

The Gnathostomulida are translucent microscopic, interstitial (i.e., living between sediment particles) marine worms, with a muscular pharynx armed with distinctive forceps-like jaws in nearly all species. Gnathostomulids feed on bacteria, fungi, and protists. The elongate body, which is typically less than 2 mm long (range 0.3 to 3.5 mm), usually has distinct head, trunk, and tail regions. Outer epithelial cells each have single cilia which collectively help the animal glide between sand grains. The ventral mouth leads to a blind gut (i.e., the gut has just a single opening, rather than a separate mouth and anus), but undigested solid waste may leave not only through the mouth but also via a temporary anus or temporary doraal connection to the epidermis. Gnathostomulids are hermaphrodites, either simultaneously functioning as male and female or as male first. One egg matures at a time and fertilization is apparently internal; in at least some species, sperm are apparently injected by an individual beneath the skin of its mate. Fertilized eggs are believed to be deposited singly. Development is direct, with no larval stage.
Gnathostomulids are found worldwide, but the best studied areas are western Europe, the Mediterranean Sea, the U.S. coastline, the Caribbean Sea, and a few localities in the Pacific Ocean. They are found mainly in medium or fine-grained sand mixed with detritus and are often very common in sand from seagrass beds. They may occur at high densities in anoxic, sulfide-rich conditions (population densities of more than 6000 individuals per liter of sediment have been reported). They occur from the intertidal zone to depths of hundreds of meters. There are close to 100 described gnathostomulid species, but many more times that number likely await discovery. Gnathostomulids were first described, in 1956, as turbellarian Platyhelminthes (free-living flatworms), but were given phylum rank in 1969. Recent work has supported the recognition of a monophyletic clade Gnathifera consisting of the clade Syndermata (Rotifera + Acanthocephala) plus the Gnathostomulida (Witek et al. 2009 and references therein). Sørensen et al. (2006) investigated relationships within the Gnathostomulida.

Love coconut ice, so am sure I'll love this. Looks delicious - great ingredients.
These sound amazing! So simple and so delicious and inventive at the same time. I love to get people guessing ingredients too :)
I made this recipe this weekend to take to a coeliac friend's place and it was a huge success. The only criticism was that I hadn't made a double batch !
So easy, quick and scrummy.
I also made the gluten-free pear & chocolate cake - which was fab too.
I needed something quick and easy as a 'Sorry you are leaving' gift for a friend who loves these ingredients. Luckily I found this. It is wonderful and I will not need any excuse to make it again. Everyone loved it - thank you.

The HTC 8S has passed through the FCC, and it's revealed that the Windows Phone 8 handset will support both T-Mobile US and AT&T HSPA bands. While this is not to say other carriers wont pick up the device at a later point, it confirms availability for consumers who are with either network.
Without LTE, the HTC 8S sports a 1Ghz dual-core chip with a 4" WVGA display, 512MB RAM, 4GB storage (with MicroSD support), 5MP camera, and a 1700mAh battery. If the internals weren't enough, Beats Audio is also featured (without an extra amp) and an array of unique two-toned colour combinations are available.
The HTC 8S has also been rumoured to be heading to US Cellular as well. It'll be interesting to see where the Windows Phone is made available, in both the US and Canada.

Gary Kubiak still hadn't made up his mind how he plans to use T. J. Yates and Case Keenum Sunday against the Saints but will announce his plan Friday after a meeting with his offensive coaches. Matt Schaub is expected to play the entire first half and possibly the opening series of the third quarter, depending on his play count.
Kubiak has previously said the quarterback who goes in third in the New Orleans game will be the starter against the Cowboys Thursday night, when Schaub won't play at all.
"I'm going to keep pushing both of them to the end with this thing," Kubiak said. "They both will play a great deal against Dallas, obviously. We're going to take this thing all the way until the end. I think it's extremely close. They've both played well and I think it's important for us, as a team, to push them to the end and just see how it goes throughout the course of the (entire) preseason."
He admits he expected the competition to be heated.
"A young player (Keenum) has responded to becoming a better player and a veteran (Yates) responded to the pressure of somebody pushing him," Kubiak said." That's what putting together a team is all about. It's (about) making us all better. "Somebody's got to lean (across the finish line first). We'll figure it out. It's a nice problem to have. We've got two good ones."
Kubiak wasn't yet prepared to say whether he would keep three quarterbacks on the 53-man roster.
"I think it's probably too early because you don't know what else is going on with your team," he said. "But I would say we've got three good ones and you don't (want to) let good football players go."

The Volvo V90 arrived on the automotive scene in 1991, offering Volvo loyalists a well-equipped, safe wagon option in keeping with the brand's reputation.
The late 1800s and early 1900s saw a great deal of change in regards to industrial practices and technology. That evolution created more efficient ways of manufacturing all kinds of goods, including new cars. These changes traveled across the world, creating automakers on almost every continent; Volvo is one among many. Like several of the other carmakers, Volvo has its beginnings in the years leading up to World War II. Before the war broke out, the Swedish company enjoyed a great deal of local success with its line of reliable and safe cars.
Like many of the European carmakers and industrial companies of the time, Volvo experienced some setbacks during the war years. While production continued, it was seriously reduced, and fewer new models were introduced. Following the end of World War II, Volvo made the decision to offer its cars to the U.S. market. These affordable, well-made cars were well received in America and quickly made a name with families, professionals, and anyone looking for a reliable car.
The Volvo name still gains recognition today, and it continues to be a big part of the American car and vehicle sales market. Among the many offerings from Volvo, the V90 remained a popular choice though not popular enough. The Volvo V90 wad discontinued in U.S. in late 1990s
It's no big secret that one of the things the Volvo automakers are known for is their attention to safety detail. The V90 Series offered no exception; these wagons are famous for their well-equipped cabins. The V90 wagon provided a great choice for families, especially.
The V90 wagon series found inspiration in Volvo's 960 sedans and shares a lot in common with the car. In the 1996 model year, the company chose to rename the model and offered it only in the wagon body style. The sedan was renamed the S90 for the 1997 model year.
The 1998 model year marked the last year for the Volvo V90. Many industry experts suspect the change came about due to the overwhelming popularity of small to midsize sport utility vehicles (SUVs). The V90 vehicles featured side impact airbags in addition to the traditional driver's side options.
Under the hood, the V90 came equipped with a 2.9-liter, inline six-cylinder motor paired with a four-speed automatic transmission with overdrive capabilities. The motor offered 181 hp. While not the fastest option available, the V90's powertrain was sufficient for its needs.
Naturally, since Volvo markets it as a family car, the 1998 V90 came equipped with some in-cabin options to make the ride as pleasant as possible. The V90 offered some nice standard features including power locks and doors, air-conditioning, and a sunroof. Volvo also provided the V90 with leather, power seats.
The V90 Series aimed to safely transport families in a reliable wagon. Before 1998, wagon models in this family carried the names Volvo 940 and 960. The 1993 model wagons included a built-in child safety seat. This model also offered a 19.8-gallon gas tank, four gallons larger than the tanks on previous models. This reduced the number of fuel stops drivers must make.
Volvo wagons gained the name V90 for the 1998 model year. These models offer revised center consoles and a softer suspension.

A contraceptives program launched in 2009 on Catalina Island has been deemed an effective and more humane way of controlling the bison population than relocation, according to a new study by the Catalina Island Conservancy that will be published this month.
The program has allowed wildlife biologists to keep population levels that are both beneficial to the herds of bison as well as the ecological health of the island.
"It's a long-term program," said Calvin Duncan, a wildlife biologist who co-led the contraceptives effort. "The conservancy is looking to find a balance. The bison have been really ingrained into the culture and the residents love them. Hopefully, this is something that can be considered in other bison herds."
Bison were introduced to Catalina Island in 1924 for a movie that was never made, but have become somewhat of a historical icon indicative of the island's wildlife. Over time, the herd grew to more than 600 animals, creating a need to remove bison off the island.
The conservancy had been shipping bison off to auction houses or relocating them to Native American reservations.
"As a conservation organization, our board did a multiyear scientific study on what impacts the bison," said Ann Muscat, president and CEO of the Catalina Island Conservancy. "From that, we learned that if we chose to have a herd, we should reduce the number to 150 since it's better for the bison and it's better for the habitat.
"They're of great cultural and historical value to the island and we're very pleased that the program is working out as well as it is."
The new program is a form of immuno-contraception, using porcine zona pellucida (PZP) applied in a very small dose administered by a dart or syringe.
"It follows the same rules as a vaccine," Duncan said. "The bison are doing what they were doing before and it's not causing any difference in hormones or behavior."
The contraceptive has been used for fertility control in zoos, wild horses and white-tailed deer. The females are administered two doses their first year of the program and then one every year after that. This program is more cost-effective and efficient for the biologists, who no longer have to corral the huge animals or find them across the island. The population now is already stabilized at 159 animals.
"It's something we can more easily manage and also keep the cultural and economic value," Muscat said. "It's one of a number of important wildlife management programs that we have and we take very seriously the responsibility to manage the wildlife on the island."
The contraceptives program is the most beneficial to the female bison, which could be pregnant and nursing new calves for most of their adult lives — up to 20 years — because of the lack of predators, said Julie King, a senior wildlife biologist. With the contraceptive, it allows the females to take a break and recover from the constant pregnancy and nursing.
In addition to benefits for the bison, the program is beneficial to the island as a whole.
"Ecologically for the big picture, it's an advantage because the population of bison here, without predators or disease, continues to expand to well over what the environment can sustain them with," King said. "They're not going to have enough to eat, so with a smaller population and the contraceptive, their numbers will be smaller, allowing more food, and it keeps their social structure intact."
The research was presented at the International Conference on Fertility Control in Wildlife in 2012 attended by scientists and researchers who come together to explore effective methods of wildlife population management.
"The unique part of Catalina is that it's a living laboratory," Duncan said. "A lot of the programs we do, we approach them with a lot more data than we would with normal research. We're mixing management and research in a way so that someone can replicate it somewhere else. It's part of the great things we're doing here."

After doing the math a company finds recoating rather than replacing its rooftop cabling system will yield substantial savings.
By using a silicone sealant to recoat failing PVC-jacketed electrical cable, a major Midwestern auto manufacturer protected its wiring — and saved a bundle.
During a routine inspection, facility engineers noticed the company's rooftop cabling system (approximately 15,000 linear ft of medium-voltage wiring) was dry and cracking — the victim of weathering and ultraviolet (UV) exposure. Lengthy sections showed signs of possible water intrusion. Something would have to be done fast.
Engineers felt the only certain remedy would be to replace the cable, but that meant big expenses and downtime.
The company investigated an alternative: applying Dow Corning 700 Industrial Grade Silicone Sealant to the cable. Applied in a temperature of 77°F (25°C) and in 50% humidity, this durable silicone sealant forms a tack-free skin within 15 min, and sections up to ⅛-in. thick cure in about 24 hr. (Humidity, degree of confinement, and application thickness all affect the cure time.)
Once cured, the tough, rubbery solid remains flexible, allowing it to withstand UV light, ozone, rain, and extreme outdoor temperatures for a typical life span of more than 20 years.
After testing the adhesion and UV protection of the silicone formulation, the auto manufacturer hired an industrial painting contractor to recoat 7,200 ft of the cable. The contractor developed some simple tools and applied the material at an average thickness of ⅛ in. to ¼ in.
Evaluating the project at this point, engineers estimated recoating rather than replacing the cable had saved the manufacturer more than $400,000.
Impressed, the manufacturer decided to seal the remaining 7,800 ft of cable.
The result: an estimated total savings of close to $850,000. The Table (original article) shows how they calculated these savings.

Subscribe To First Dredd Trailer Shows Off Karl Urban's Growl And A Familiar Plot Updates
I've already subscribed
Whether or not you've seen the original 1995 Stallone film Judge Dredd, there's good reason to be intrigued by the upcoming remake, which is going simply by the name Dredd. It's directed by Pete Travis, who made 2009's goofy but enjoyable Vantage Point, but more importantly, it stars Karl Urban as the title character. You'll recognize Urban from practically everything, from Lord of the Rings to The Bourne Supremacy to the new Star Trek series, but Dredd is his first big action staring role. Though, if you look at the new Dredd trailer, you might have a hard time finding Urban at all. Take a look below and see if you can recognize the man underneath that helmet.
OK, so I get that in the original Judge Dredd movie the character wears a helmet, and in the comics he never takes it off-- but even though they've compromised by showing the lower half of Urban's face, it still takes a lot away from his charisma and from any attachment you can develop for the character. It's possible that Olivia Thirlby, as his sidekick, can carry a lot of the movie as well, but we see so little of her in this trailer it's hard to tell. And if you're intrigued by what looks like the entire plot setup, in which they break into a tower that's headquarters for the city's drug kingpin, I suggest you check out this year's Indonesian action instant-classic The Raid, which couples this exact same plot with some of the most astonishing martial arts you'll ever see.
Yes, it's unfair to prejudge Dredd just for having a plot similar to another film, and I still like Karl Urban enough to want to support this. But we've seen a lot of movies set in grim future police states, and Dredd seems to be drawing from the exact same playbook rather than creating something new. We can find out how it works for ourselves when the movie comes to theaters on September 21; meanwhile, everything else we need to know about the movie is over in our Blend Film Database.

Laura Kaderabek Eyring, 47, has art in her blood. She grew up in a musical family in Bala Cynwyd; her father was the First Trumpet for the Philadelphia Orchestra. She began drawing, painting and playing the piano at a very early age. "When I was 10, my parents took us to Czechoslovakia, and I tried to draw everything that I saw so that I could bring that back as my souvenir. Well, I didn't draw everything, but I did as much as I could."
At the age of 18, she felt she needed to make a choice between piano and art. "I chose art because I felt that music had been too much structure for me at an early age," she said, "but that structure taught me to think long-term and has been a good foundation for my painting."
Laura graduated from the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts in 1987, and then from the University of Pennsylvania with a BFA in 1990. During that time she spent a summer in Haiti working as an illustrator for French and Canadian engineers and agronomists who were teaching local farmers planting techniques to avoid soil erosion.
Besides falling in love with Haiti for what she describes as a "lively and wonderful arts community," it was there that she also became interested in environmental issues of water quality and treatment. Later, she decided to go back to school, earning a second Bachelor's degree, this time in chemistry, from Drexel University in 2001. She now works as a program scientist in the research unit of the Philadelphia Water Department.
"I wasn't giving up art," she said. "I was giving up waitressing!" In fact, Laura believes that the non-verbal patterns encountered in both music and math have contributed to her success as an artist. She has had shows at the Art Forms Gallery in Manayunk and the Rosenfeld Gallery in Olde City. Her next show will be on Sunday, Nov. 13, 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., at the Germantown Jewish Centre's Craft Show, 400 W. Ellet St. (near Lincoln Drive) in West Mt. Airy. Most of her earlier work was done with oils, but after having children she began looking for a medium more compatible with having kids in the house. "The focus of my art is no longer my own self-interest now that I have children," she explained.
Once her son began school, she spent a great deal of time in the classroom drawing with the children using markers and colored pencils. "I learned to draw all the animals that kids love," she said. "They would ask me to draw a picture of them with their dog or cat, or they would say things like 'Put me on a dragon; draw me in a spaceship.'"
One day at home her son asked her to draw a picture of him and Yoyo (their dog) with a dinosaur, and she knew she had to do something with this new pastime. Her latest venture, "Customized Children's Art," features bright, fun and fantastical scenes into which she will customize a drawing of a child and her or his favorite pet(s). She says these illustrations have been greatly influenced by Dr. Seuss.
"Once I realized that the buildings didn't have to be structurally sound," she said, "it really freed me up to make the pictures more of a fantasy." These works can be seen and purchased on her website: www.etsy.com/shop/redwingart. A portion of all sales will go to Laura's two favorite charities, Save the Children and the Pennsylvania Humane Society.
Laura remains active at Jenks Elementary, the school her children attend, and hopes to spend more time in the classroom teaching art and art appreciation. "I think it's important for kids to learn to be visually sensitive," she said. "Art figures into other parts of life and allows you to be more in tune with your environment." Along with teaching art, other future goals include continuing to develop and publish her work and to illustrate children's books.
Mrs. Eyring lives at home in Mt. Airy with her husband, Adam, their two children, Tristan, 7, and Nadja, 4, and the family pets, Yoyo and Peter. She can be reached at email@example.com.
Michael Hogan is a local resident and a graduate student at Chestnut Hill College.

Lt. Gov. Mark Darr: "Why I'm for Romney"
I want to thank the Saline Courier for inviting me to write for them. I look forward to many discussions with you all about my opinions on various topics. Just a little about myself for those of you who don't know me - I'm a small business owner, the husband of a school teacher, and a father of two great kids. As I complete my first year in elected office as your 15th Lieutenant Governor, I could not be more proud to be an Arkansan.
This week I'd like to explain why I chose to endorse Governor Mitt Romney for President.
Although I have not been in this business for that long I have learned some tough life lessons. I hope that I would have the courage to stand up against a Washington D.C. that threatens the very existence of our country.
In early October, at a speech I gave at the Governor's Mansion, I publicly endorsed Governor Mitt Romney to be our next President. I was the first elected Arkansan to do so and since then there have only been a handful to follow. Fox News wasn't there. To my knowledge, the national media wasn't waiting on the Lt. Governor of Arkansas to run to the presses, but it was my statement. Over the next few days, I took criticism for this endorsement.
Things would have been a whole lot easier for an Arkansas Republican if former Governor Huckabee had decided to run for President. It would have been understood that I (or any Arkansas politician) would tend to support him. Let me say that I still believe that Governor Huckabee would be our next President had he decided to run, but that is not the case now.
Some of us across the country had the good fortune to meet many of the frontrunners earlier in 2011. Though we had good visits and they seemed like principled men, I didn't see them winning the election in 2012. I didn't question their motives for running but questioned their electability. After deciding to support Governor Romney, I was going to keep it silent. Knowing others might not agree, why put myself out there politically? Well, I ran to be different, to tell you what I thought without looking at a poll or seeing if it were popular. I did so because you deserve to know what your leaders are thinking, even if it costs them their job.
Governor Romney is prepared to be president. He is the best candidate with the soundest judgment to lead our country. He is the only candidate that has the organization and monetary capital that will be necessary to make Barack Obama a one-term president. He knows what it takes to run a national campaign. Throughout every debate, he has remained steady and speaks knowledgeably about the issues we are facing.
Our country is at stake. Four more years of President Obama threatens not just my kids' future but my own as well. It threatens my businesses' future.
Governor Romney has shown leadership in the private sector and will promote job growth by reducing taxes, spending, regulation, and government programs. He will seek to increase trade, energy production, human capital and labor flexibility. He will repeal Obamacare and replace it with market-based reforms that empower states and individuals and reduce health care costs.
As for foreign policy, I believe Governor Romney would be a decisive commander-in-chief, putting our nation's interests first, while showing strong support for Israel and our allies.
Finally, Governor Romney is a family man. He and his wife Ann have raised five sons, who are all successful. When she was diagnosed with M.S. in 1998 and subsequently underwent surgery and radiation treatments to fight breast cancer, he was devoted to helping her through those difficult times.
Governor Romney loves this country and has the strength to lead it. My vote in our primary will be for Governor Romney.

Federal judge rules that Ohio must respect gay couples' marriages from other states
April 14, 2014
Today, U.S. District Court judge Timothy Black officially issued his ruling in Henry v. Himes, declaring that the state of Ohio must respect the marriages of same-sex couples legally performed in other states. He wrote, "Ohio's marriage recognition bans are facially unconstitutional and unenforceable under any circumstances."
The ruling has been stayed - meaning it does not take effect immediately - throughout the state of Ohio. Tomorrow, the judge will revisit whether a stay is necessary for the four plaintiff couples, who he says have demonstrated clear and urgent harm: That when they give birth to their children, they must be respected as married so that both parents can appear on the birth certificates. The judge wrote, "The Court inclines toward a finding that the issuance of correct birth certificates for Plaintiffs' children, due in June or earlier, should not be stayed."
Last week, during closing arguments in the case, Judge Black announced from the bench that he anticipated striking down the part of Ohio's marriage law that denies respect to legally married couples.
Earlier this year, Judge Black ruled that the state of Ohio must respect the legal marriages of same-sex couples for the purpose of listing a spouse on a death certificate. That ruling, in Obergefell v. Wymyslo, is currently being appealed to the 6th Circuit Court of Appeals.
Freedom to Marry founder and president Evan Wolfson celebrated the news today. He said:
Couples who are married should be treated as married no matter where they are in the country, including Ohio. Couples should not have to play 'now you're married, now you're not' as they travel, work, move, or return home. This is a good day for families and businesses in Ohio, and a good day for the Constitution and America.
This is now the eleventh huge federal court victory in favor of the freedom to marry since the United States Supreme Court ruled in Windsor v. United States. In total, there are more than 60 lawsuits seeking the freedom to marry or respect for same-sex couples' marriages working their way through the system in 29 states or territories. You can keep track of what's going on in state, federal, and trial courts with Freedom to Marry's Litigation Resource.
Special thanks to Kathleen Perrin at Equality Case Files for the filing.

Miroslav Kulanga needed a new logo design and created a contest on 99designs.
A winner was selected from 211 designs submitted by 22 freelance designers.
"Klinisch pathologische Konferenz"
We are developing an online Application for medical Students and Doctors, where they can train their diagnostic skills. The project will we be soon available for publicity. A collection of interactive clinical cases is the heart of the application.
The Demo of the project can be found here (in German only):
Just click around to get the feeling what our application does.
Medical audience is our target
We need a future-oriented and modern Logo for this online platform. The Logo should be a symbol for this keywords: medicine, education, university, training, modern it-technology. The Logo should not contain the name of the project "Klinisch pathologische Konferenz". We plan to translate the application, so the name will change and actually the name is too long.
Maybe you can use some part of the following Logo:
It is a nice old logo of medical faculty in Göttingen, which is unfortunately not in use anymore - but maybe it can live in our logo :-)
The new Logo should be future-oriented: In the future there may exist other similar applications, which are not filled with medical content. Please design the logo so, that it can be adapted to non-medical content. E.g. Medical parts can be removed and non-medical parts can be added - but the identity of one and the same application is always given.
There is an introduction page, which don`t fits our design style yet. The first view is very important, so we need help with designing the first page. This page should be clean, modern and using our base colors: { blue (#006990, #6699CC), black, grey (#363636, #434343), white }. Here you will find more visual instructions and pictures for download:

The cake was inspired by this cake on Hip Hip Hooray! It was pretty easy to do, and it's oh so fun. I couldn't find a tutorial anywhere but I winged it as usual…and I was pretty pleased with the results. If anyone is interested in a tutorial let me know and I'd be glad to share!
I kept the decorations simple but colorful. I bought table cheap plastic table cloths, balloons, paper plates and napkins in rainbow colors. I saw this idea on Pinterest and tried to copy it as best I could. (I cannot find the real source of the photo in the link, if anyone knows where it came from I'd love to give the blogger credit.) The chandelier kind of got in the way, but it was still really fun!
The cake was a HUGE hit with the kids. The slices were so huge I had to cut them in half height-wise just to fit them on the cake plates! And of course they each enjoyed a Blowpop after cake…what kid wouldn't want that? Heck, what adult wouldn't want that?
No? Just me? 🙂
