On 30 April 2008, with the NM primary election looming on the horizon, The Grant County Progressives presented a candidate forum featuring the NM 2nd US Congressional District hopeful Bill McCamley and 4 of the 8 contenders for 2 seats on the Grant County Commission at the historic Silco Theater in Beautiful Downtown Silver City, NM.
This election presents two strong progressives for the two county commission seats. Joe Mondragon and Carlos Provencio both have deep roots in this community and proven track records as progressives and committed community organizers. Given the number of contenders in the primary, Joe & Carlos' distinct backgrounds and positioning, and the fact that a plurality wins, their chances of victory are much better than idle speculation, particularly when progressives in Grant County - sometimes uncoordinated but at others very effective - are fired up and ready to work.
One of the recurring themes in the forum is the role of WNMU / Western New Mexico University in our community. NM LULAC / League of United Latin American Citizens, convened their statewide convention here in Silver City recently and passed a reolution in favor of electing NM Regents rather than having them appointed by the governor. This is a thorny issue as the regents role is defined in the NM constitution and changing that is more than a notion. But nonetheless, a tide is rising to sweep away the present entrenched and unresponsive administrations statewide and inject a strong component of accountability and transparency into the higher education system.
Due to time/length constraints, this program is focused on the county commissioners but at this same event, Democrat Bill McCamley spoke on the issues and his candidacy for the US Congress. McCamley is presently a Dona Ana County (Las Cruces) Commissioner and announced his candidacy over a year ago - before Stevan Pearce had opted out of the house race to contend for Pete Domenici's vacant Senate Seat. CD2 has been one of the safest seats in the country and the "property" of the Republican Party after 22 years under Skeen and 6 under Pearce.
It was hoped that this would be a debate and discussion with his democratic primary rival, oil services millionaire Harry Teague, but Teague declined the offer to debate. In fact, unless you were present (as Radio Free Silver was) at the LULAC NM State Convention here in Silver City, you probably won't see McCamley and Teague at the same venue at any time despite McCamley's offer to debate Teague anytime, anywhere and specifically to set four debates in various parts of CD2 in the four final weeks of the campaign. Look for their faceoff on RFS! before the election.
Teague opted instead to use some of the $700,000 he took out of his oil services company profits pocket and stick in his congressional campaign pocket to throw a free dinner party at the Red Barn in Silver City on the preceding Monday. Figuring $10 to $15 a head, that's a cheap price per vote for anybody that showed up that was not only hungry but also willing to swallow his pitch. Teague seems to have a lot more in common with his SE NM oil services buddy Stevan Pearce who voted for Bush policies 97% of the time. Teague contributed thousands of dollars in the last two elections in which Gary King and Al Kissling were the Democratic candidates, respectively.
There's certainly no certainty on the outcome of the County Commission, US Congress or US Senate races. Udall was present at the NM LULAC convention and a very strong contender to defeat either Pearce or Heather Wilson - both are whom have the stink of Bush on them for their 90% plus support of Bush policies which brought you
But looking on the bright side, maybe we can look forward to NO NM Republicans in congress and for the first time, a progressive majority on the Grant County Commision.

Size tested: 11.5m Suggested retail: $1,349 (kite only)
Sizes available: 3.5, 5.5, 7.5, 8.5, 9.5, 10.5, 11.5, 13.5m
Test Team Report
The Kahoona+ is a four-strut kite with a Delta platform, and it shows some nice refinement and performance upgrades this year. The "+" means it's equipped with the Best EZ Pump inflation system with the new Twist Lock that is found on other models. It's also available with standard inflation for those who want to save a little extra, but the Kahoona+ is ready to hit the water with less hassle than ever. Any level rider will appreciate the fast and easy water relaunch of the Kahoona; it lifts off the water with ease—a quick pull of the steering lines. The test riders were impressed with the great stability, simple-to-find power ban and the easy depower of this kite.
The Kahoona+ has a unique blend of moderate bar pressure for power delivery and light-touch steering. This results in a feeling of more progressive power but slightly less of a precision feel for certain applications. The Kahoona's power delivery make it a great choice for riders who want a sheet-and-go kite or a kite with more instant depower while riding waves. The Kahoona is easy to jump and also grants excellent gliding hang time, which is characteristic of its flatter central canopy and four-line configuration. Overall, the Kahoona+ has everything a newbie kiter needs to build the fundamental skills to expand into multiple kite disciplines. Advanced riders won't be disappointed if you're looking for a kite with lots of range, faster, more pivot-style turns and more instant depower for onshore waveriding.
The Trade-off:
Less precision in the feel; you can lose kite positioning more easily. If you love to just sheet-in and go, this is one of the best.
Best For:
Anyone who wants an easy fly-and-go kite that can handle a wide range of conditions and lets you focus on progressing your skills to the next level.
Best Designer Feedback: Peter Stiewe
This year we improved the canopy profile and harmonized the leading edge arc so to deliver a better slack line feel. The new wing tip design maximizes stability during 'load and pop.' This is a great kite for riders that are looking to improve their skill set as the kite is simply responsive and easy to relaunch as well. We slimmed down the front profile in the larger sizes to improve the upwind ability of the kites. The Kahoona+ also updates the EZ Pump™ Inflation system with the installation of the new patented Twist Lock Valve to get you on the water faster. The strut closures were also modified in order to enhance bladder protection. The Best Kahoona+ is now in its 6th season for a reason, this kite is designed to advance your progression in every session.

Subject: Nuclear Physics
The binding energy per nucleon for Co-60, calculated from the liquid drop model, in MeV, is closest to?
Knowing A=60 and Z=27, Use the semi-empirical mass formula. Where the coefficients are: a(V)=15.85MeV, a(S)=18.34 MeV, a(A)=23.21 MeV, a(C)=0.714 MeV, a(P)=12.00 MeV, and delta(o)=a(P)*A^(-1/2) In this case since the number of protons is odd, the pairing term becomes zero (delta(o))=0. The approximate binding energy using the SEMF is Eb=523.04MeV, the energy per nucleon is just Eb/A or 523.04/60=8.717 MeV.
Subject: Basic Chemistry
Given a molecule of water (H2O), what is the electron-pair geometry and molecular geometry of the molecule. Also, state the bond angle in degrees.
Applying the VSEPR theory to the electrons and utilizing the shorthand "AXE method" of electron counting, we count there are 2 bonded atoms (Hydrogen) to the central atom (Oxygen). Knowing that Oxygen has 6 valance shell electrons and 1 will be used for each bond with each hydrogen atom, that leaves a total of 4 valance electrons floating around the oxygen atom (or two lone pairs). The AXE method gives H2O a notation of AX(2)E(2). With this notation we can look up the Electron and Molecular geometries. The electron geometry is that of a tetrahedral, while the molecular geometry is that of a bent structure. The approximate interaction between the two hydrogen atoms and the two lone pairs give rise to a bond angle of 109.5 degrees or in some literature 104.48 degrees.
Subject: Chemical Engineering
List and briefly define the three types of heat transfer and give an example of each.
Convection-Movement of matter due to differences in density that are caused by temperature gradients Ex. Hot air transferring to a colder environment Conduction-Transfer of heat between atoms as they collide within a substance. Ex. Heating of a metal plate Radiation-Transfer of energy by EM waves Ex. Sunlight transferring heat to earth

This post is crossposted from Advancing Transgender Equality. View the original post.
In response to news that the Miss Universe Organization will announce a final policy allowing transgender women to participate in its beauty pageants, NCTE Executive Director Mara Keisling said:
"No one likes it when they're left out of something because of who they are. This is especially true for transgender people—people like Jenna Talackova—who are denied opportunities because they're told that who they are is 'unnatural.' So I get that Jenna probably still doesn't feel good about the situation. But it's a noteworthy thing for a group like the Miss Universe Organization and Donald Trump to switch positions allowing Jenna to participate, and to commit to developing transgender inclusive rules. This is a good thing, and it's a sign of how more and more people get trans issues."
NCTE recognizes the Gay and Lesbian Alliance Against Defamation (GLAAD) and other groups for quickly engaging senior levels of the organization including its owner, Donald Trump, to update the policy. We have spoken out about Jenna's experience and have provided GLAAD with resources to assist the Miss Universe Organization in developing their final policy.
Keisling added, "We thank Jenna for standing up for herself and for all of us. Her case is just one in hundreds of examples where a person has something taken away—a job, a house, or a loved one—because they're trans. And not every trans person gets access to legal representation to help them. There are too many other stories of trans people who experience unbearable circumstances. The support Jenna has received must also support other trans people. And I believe that progress here can influence change in other places that impact our lives."
NCTE understands the legitimate position that beauty pageants reinforce narrow standards of women's beauty. However, we will always support any trans person who is facing discrimination.

Pakistani Christian sentenced to life imprisonment for blasphemy
CLAAS, a religious freedom advocacy group updated Voice of the Persecuted on the case of Zafar Bhatti, a Christian in Pakistan who was falsely charged of blasphemy and now sentenced to life imprisonment by a Pakistani court on May 3, 2017.
Bhatti had been charged under blasphemy law section 295C and telegraph act section 25D in 2012 for sending blasphemous text messages from his mobile phone, which is according to reports was not registered to his name. He denies the charges.
Since 2012, he has been imprisoned in Adiala Central Jail Rawalpindi. Considering the threats to his life, the case was conducted in the jail on April 24 but the judgment was reserved for later dates. On May 3, the Additional session judge jailed him for life.
Usually courts hand down a death sentence to those who are charged under 295-C, but because there was no concrete evidence against Bhatti, he was sentenced to life imprisonment instead.
In 2012 Islamabad, the lawyers' bar passed a resolution that no lawyer will represent Bhatti in the court, but CLAAS accepted his responsibility. They're also helping to care for his family.
Due to threats against the accused and their lawyers, CLAAS tried to move the case to Lahore but the request was denied.
Nasir Saeed, director CLAAS-UK said it is very unfortunate that even though there was not enough evidence against Bhatti, instead of freeing him, the court has sentenced him to life imprisonment because of pressure from Islamists.
"The blasphemy law is continuously being misused in Pakistan to take revenge and settle personal scores. Christians are the most targeted group, and several Christians have been burnt alive, and even their towns and churches are often attacked and set to fire."
"The lower court's judges always hesitate to make decisions on the merit, or free people accused of blasphemy, and instead transfer their burden to the higher court without realizing how their decision will impact the accused and their families' lives."
CLAAS says they will appeal against the lower court's decision to the Lahore high court. They believe Bhatti is innocent and will be freed by the higher court. Unfortunately, it will take several years for his case to be heard by the High Court.
Please pray for Bhatti and his family who are suffering needlessly.
Recently Pakistan's National Assembly passed a resolution to prevent abuse through introducing safeguards. However, all such calls have faced strong opposition in the past. Those who've demanded changes in the blasphemy law were silenced and threatened with death. The governor of Punjab Salman Taseer and Minister for Minority Affairs, Shahbaz Bhatti were savagely killed, as their acts were considered equal to blasphemy by hardliners.
Nevertheless, this latest resolution is clearly something to be welcomed and another reason to continue praying for the repeal of the laws so nobody has to suffer needlessly, CLAAS told Voice of the Persecuted.

We've all heard of winter emergency kits for our cars, but did you know that you should also pack a summer car emergency kit, especially here in the blistering heat of Chattanooga? Here are six essentials for your kit this summer:
- Water: In the scorching summer heat, there is nothing more important than staying hydrated, especially if your car breaks down and leaves you stranded. Keep a pack of bottled water in your trunk.
- Sun screen: If you are out on the road fixing your vehicle or waiting for a tow, be sure to protect your skin by applying sun screen.
- Blanket: It may be hot, but blankets will come in handy for providing shade from the sun if you are left stranded.
- Phone charger: Make sure you can call for help by keeping a phone charger in your car at all times.
- Visibility gear: Longer summer days mean we are more likely to stay out past dark. Pack a flashlight, flares, and hazard triangles, just in case you become stranded at night.
- Toolkit: Keep the essential tools for car repairs stored in your car. However, if you have zero car know-how, we recommend calling for roadside assistance instead.
These are just six of the many necessary items you can include in your summer car emergency kit. If you need a new ride to store it in, stop by Capital Toyota and see what we have on the lot.

What Guys Talk About When They Talk About Girls
Posted by Andrea Meyer on
Movies about men hanging out shootin' the shit have a pretty lurid reputation. In those besides, say, "My Dinner With André," images that spring to mind are road trips, beer bongs, masturbation jokes, togas, carnal encounters with baked goods. And if we're lucky, a heart-to-heart that reveals that these loud-mouthed louts with nothing but sex on the brain might actually be human deep down inside. For me, besides belly laughs (and smug satisfaction at being confirmed the more civilized sex), the interest in guy flicks lies in the insight they offer into the way men talk to each other, especially about women.
In most broad comedies about high school or college-aged guys, such gems as "Porky's" and "American Pie," the main goal in life seems to be getting laid, although occasionally an added impetus spices things up, like trying to satisfy the munchies ("Harold & Kumar Go to White Castle"), get into Princeton ("Risky Business"), or pass history class ("Bill & Ted's Big Adventure") all, of course, in addition to doing one's damndest to get laid. In "American Pie," the über-guys-trying-to-get-laid movie, the quest dominates most conversations among the attractive, horny males in the cast, allowing for dialogue like this:
"What exactly does third base feel like?"
"Like warm apple pie…"
"McDonald's or homemade?"
Many guy flicks transcend their base premise with realistic, witty dialogue ("Clerks"), funny, high concept plot machinations ("Harold & Kumar," "Bill & Ted") or overall comic genius ("Animal House"). And the best of them manage to bury sweetness and humanity beneath the filth. While Hollywood woos the delish 18-25-year-old dude demographic with absurdity and dick jokes, independent filmmakers who make chatty guy flicks tend to have some deeper purpose in mind more "American Graffiti" than "Losin' It." Often the fictional men whose lives we invade are older and their goals are shifting from losing their virginity or banging as many cheerleaders as possible to growing up and potentially sleeping with one woman for the rest of their lives, a shift that can trigger anxiety, stubborn bursts of commitment-phobia and a lot of drama. Hence the attraction for directors of a certain age who still want to make movies about themselves and their homies.
"If you want to talk, you always have the guys at the diner. You don't need a girl if you want to talk," says Eddie (Steve Guttenberg) in Barry Levinson's "Diner" (1982), a film about a group of 20-somethings in 1959 Baltimore resisting adulthood with all their might. Eddie is a man prepared to call off his wedding if his fiancée fails a prenuptial football trivia quiz he has devised for her, clearly an excuse. Marriage is a symbol of growing up and having to say good-bye to a carefree youth spent hanging out with the guys at the diner.
In Ed Burns' "The Groomsmen" (now in theaters), the director plays Paulie, a Long Island reporter on the verge of marrying his pregnant girlfriend (Brittany Murphy) who is wrestling with his fear of taking this leap. Gathering for the big event are Paulie's brother Jim (Donal Logue), who is having marital problems of his own, happily married bartender and father of two, Des (Matthew Lillard), secretly gay T.C. (John Leguizamo) and Mike (Jay Mohr), who still lives at home, obsesses about his ex and gets all the funniest lines. Like "The Brothers McMullan," which launched Burns' directing and acting career in 1995, the film features scene after scene of the guys engaging in such manly activities as softball, fishing and boozing it up, all the while giving each other advice about sex and love, although now more mature topics like fatherhood and infertility are integrated into the discussion.
Even the guys from indie sensation "Clerks" are growing up or at least trying to. On July 21, the audience that fell in love with such dialogue as "My girlfriend's sucked 37 dicks." "In a row?" excitedly welcomes Kevin Smith's "Clerks II," which the writer-director has described as being "about when that lazy 20-something malaise lasts into your 30s." I haven't seen the film yet, but reportedly Dante (Brian O'Halloran) and Randal (Jeff Anderson) are still working behind the counter, now at a monster fast-food joint, although Dante is engaged but still spending his days having conversations (classified as "obscene" by one critic) with the guys and making the moves on his hot boss (Rosario Dawson).
Occasionally, real insight into the concerns of real men can be found between the obscenities. Doug Liman's "Swingers" (1996), for example, which was written by Jon Favreau who also plays Mike, focuses on Mike and his friends acting suave and drinking cocktails and strategizing hilariously about how to get girls, or "babies," into bed. But under the Machiavellian rule-making lies the story of a man devastated by a breakup and friends that genuinely care.
"I could, like, forget about her and then when she comes back make like I just pretended to forget about her," Mike says.
"Right, although probably more likely the opposite," says his friend Rob (Ron Livingston). "I mean, at first you're going to pretend to forget about her. You'll not call her, I don't know, whatever… but then eventually you really will forget about her."
"Well, what if she comes back first?" Mike asks.
"See, that's the thing," Rob says, "is somehow they know not to come back until you really forget."

Redhook Brewery is Seattle grown for starters, just like us!
One big reason Redhook sponsors the Husky vs Cougar Rivalry Clash 5K, 10K & Tailgate is because of their value for sports. In the feisty craft brew market they continue to churn out great session beers to drink at sporting events. Their brews pair up wonderfully with foods you might see at sports bars and restaurants. For instance, they put out "Game Changer," a brew exclusively available on tap at Buffalo Wild Wing restaurants nationwide.
Want something from the bottle? They have excellent beers for that as well. Their flagship ESB and the Dan Patrick-inspired Audible Ale. You'll be able to have both brews at the Husky vs Cougar Rivalry Clash 5K, 10K & Tailgateevent on October 13, 2013! Redhook brews are all highly drinkable but with that constant reminder of a high end craft brew.
Secondly, Redhook is arguably the best grass roots marketing around for the Seattle area as far as teaming up with fun and lively events. They cater to a wide range of people looking for great things to do. For example their summer Moonlight Cinema Series draws throngs of people onto their grassy knoll at Redhook in Woodinville to sit under the stars, eat barbecue, drink beer and wine, and watch a movie on a 55-foot inflatable screen. They are also the official craft brew sponsors of the University of Washington Huskies and have UW tap handles to flaunt it. When you find yourself at the newly renovated Husky Stadium, you'll see Redhook's presence inside the premium areas and beer gardens. Their brand will also grace "The Zone", in which they sponsor a music stage for the game day tailgate party for fans. And they even hold their very own SausageFest each year celebrating sausage, local music and beer. But don't worry guys there are chicks.
From sponsorship of sporting events to music festivals, they are committed to engaging the community and sports like no other brewery. And that's why they have come aboard the 2013 Husky vs Cougar Rivary Clash 5K, 10K & Tailgate. So come have some Redhook brews and celebrate fitness, fun, and Washington's largest rivalry!

The Falcons
Welcome to BGSUHockey.com! Falcon hockey has a special place in the hearts of fans and alumni from Bowling Green State University. Falcon hockey has produced 15 All-Americans, 10 Olympians, 2 Hobey Baker award winners, and the 1984 National Championship. With a history as rich as this it's not difficult to see why hundreds of thousands of fans who have entered the BGSU Ice Arena have experienced love at first sight.
While the Falcons have seen a stretch of difficult and uncertain times the program is going through a "rebirth" as head coach Chris Bergeron attempts to bring the Falcons back to glory. The first step was taken during the 2011-2012 CCHA playoffs as Coach Bergeron took his last-place Falcons all the way to the semi-finals of the CCHA tournament before falling to the University of Michigan in double overtime. The Falcon's finished in fourth place in the new-look WCHA and look forward to improving on that mark for the 2014-2015 campaign.
Why We're Here
A simple answer to why we're here is that all of us love Falcon hockey! We felt that a great BGSU hockey site was something that was missing. This site is for you: the fans and alumni who are still connected to this team and want the best news, features, photos, and more. While we are just launching our site we have a lot of great content planned for the future! Please add us to your daily visits and we promise we'll do our best to make this site something that Falcon fans can be proud of.
Who We Are
BGSUHockey.com was the culmination of various alumni who felt that such a special program should receive more coverage than it did. With arguably the largest alumni following these individuals have come together to bring a new site that would be worthy of such a storied program.
Todd Pavlack, Co-Founder/Photographer
Todd is a BGSU alum twice-over, graduating with his undergraduate degree in Visual Communications Technology (2006) and then his Masters degree in Career and Technology Education (2008). He grew up in a suburb of Cincinnati, Ohio, and has been an avid hockey fan since the early 90's, when he used to watch Mario Lemieux and the Penguins any chance he could get. He was the assistant sports editor, then sports editor and finally the managing graphic editor for his high school newspaper, where he honed his love of photography. Todd has been an active photographer since 1998, when he learned to develop his own black and white film. When he came to BGSU in 2002, he transitioned into the digital world by scanning his film negatives for his VCT classes.
Todd started photographing BGSU athletics back in 2009 when he contacted Grant Cummings, then owner of BGSU fansite Ay-Ziggy-Zoomba.com. Todd became the official AZZ photographer and has been hooked up with BGSU Athletic photography ever since. Focusing on the major BGSU sports (football, basketball, and hockey), Todd spent the next few years building an extensive library of BGSU sports photos.
Currently, Todd is the Manager of the Distance Education group at Wright State University and is also an Instructional Designer with WSU. He lives in Dayton, Ohio, and tries to make it a priority to be at any Falcon hockey game that he can attend, including many of the away games.
Outside of Falcon hockey and photographing BGSU athletic events, Todd enjoys cars and hanging out with friends. Todd can be reached on Twitter @BGHockeyPhotos or by email at firstname.lastname@example.com.
Drew Evans, Co-Founder/Editor
Drew has been a fan of hockey since the first ever game of the Columbus Blue Jackets in 2000. His excitement for the game grew even more when he attended BGSU beginning in 2003. His favorite player while at BGSU was Kevin Bieksa who is now a star defensemen for the Vancouver Canucks. Drew has spent a significant amount of time in the program including a stint assisting the coaching staff in 2006-2007 as a volunteer where he tracked a multitude of statistics in-game.
This season is his sixth covering the team in a media role. He has been the editor for the now defunct BringBacktheGlory.org, hockey contributor for Ay-Ziggy-Zoomba.com and was the creator of the Falcon Hockey Weekly podcast.

Ryan is a 2013 graduate of BGSU and a life-long hockey fan. His love for the game grew in the early 2000s, when he realized it was the only sport he was halfway decent at. Despite a crisis of faith during the 2004-05 NHL lockout, he found hockey again upon moving to California in 2007, when a couple of his friends persuaded him to join an adult hockey league.
His love for college hockey was born in 2009, when he accidentally ended up at Bowling Green — a story he has grown found of telling. While at BG, he wrote for The BG News for four years, serving as sports editor during his junior year. However, he always ended up back with hockey, covering the team for two and a half years.
He resides in Bowling Green, until life's next great adventure comes along. In his free time, he enjoys prematurely canceled television shows, television shows that probably should have been canceled already and engaging in just enough physical activity so he can eat large amounts of junk food without feeling bad.

Since I dropped 10 lbs on my Whole30, I treated myself to a new pair of pants that fit me yesterday. Look at me dipping my toe into the distressed jeans look. I'm not a regular mom, I'm like a cool mom.
Also, yesterday was Dairy Reintro day, which I celebrated with a Pumpkin Spice Latte (full-fat milk, duh. Go big or go home).
I also had a kale salad with feta cheese and mashed potatoes with butter in my lunch. The potatoes are poking out from under the massive pile of BBQ pulled pork my hot bar box was rocking. Plus roasted veggies and garilic mushrooms. I may have had to close my eyes and put down my fork a couple of times in this meal just to truly savor the awesomeness. Once again, hats off to you Whole Foods hot bar.
Of course, after all of the dairy it was probably not the best day to go skinny jeans shopping. Bloat-city, man. So dairy reintro was a success in that now I'm sure I will start billowing like a balloon after consuming a latte. Knowledge is power, my friends. I might take a couple days then try a dairy day that doesn't include 12 oz of milk in one sitting, just butter and cheese. I can survive without milk, but it would be nice to be able to cook Home Chef meals with the butter and the cream in the sauce on occasion if I can determine it doesn't affect me that much.
On the lighter side of life, is it too early to request a Mother's Day gift?
Darn skippy, kids. I'm a gosh darn genius.
Go make it a great day!

Airbus gets record order
IndiGo has agreed to buy 250 A320 jetliners from Airbus, a purchase worth nearly $25.7 billion at list price. It ranks as the largest single order of jets from the European aerospace giant. The budget airline, India's largest, is expanding as it seeks to win more market share in one of the world's fastest growing aviation markets. The airline will start taking delivery of the planes from 2018 and has secured rights to buy a further 100 A320-family aircraft. (Sources: Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, 10/15/14, Reuters, 10/16/14) Gulf Coast note: Airbus is building an A320 final assembly line in Mobile, Ala., that will open in 2015 and employ about 1,000 workers.

Furniture designer Rahil Taj's background in architecture informs his work, resulting in smart pieces that stand out from the pack. To break apart from the traditional plastic, domed doghouses that dominate the market, he designed a sleek alternative with weather-resistant concrete, powder-coated steel, and Brazilian teak. The perforated panels make it simple to clean, while the casters allow for an easy relocation. Add the built-in feeding bowls, and you can bet this will be your buddy's favorite spot in the house.

L.A. interior designer Kelly Wearstler is the first person you call for a jaw-dropping home that strikes the balance between edgy and warm. The dog lover's pet houses are no exception. We're partial to the Douglas fir, barrel-roof style for petite pups; but the gridded ipe model and the darker walnut abode will also please discerning doggies. Avant Dog House by Kelly Wearstler.
Full Loft's eco-friendly, handcrafted crashpad resembles a vintage TV set—perfect for your superstar dawg.

Inspired by their location in L.A.'s lifeguard stand-studded South Bay, the Pijuan Design Workshop team dreamed up this end table-doghouse hybrid. The low-slung deck and ramp makes it accessible for small or aging pups, while still allowing them the feeling of being elevated. It's a weighty piece with a solid core and real wood veneer that will last for years. Dog Tower 9 by PD Workshop.
No yard, no problem! This compact doghouse was built for indoor use, and it comfortably fits medium-sized pooches. It looks like a classic, but offers so much more with an attached food and drink station, a shelf on the roof for treats and grooming supplies, and a tree for hanging leashes. The cozy bed also has removable fabric that you can throw in the wash. Inside Dog House by Sauder.
A little zen goes a long way when it comes to creating a dreamy abode for your pooch.

Thursday afternoon, a spacecraft is scheduled to blast off from Space Launch Complex 41 at Cape Canaveral, hoisting 7,700 pounds of supplies to the crew on the International Space Station.
On the surface, that's nothing dramatic or novel. The rocket isn't going anywhere we haven't been before. But the journey is one more lap in the ongoing space race underway among several private space companies—Orbital ATK, Elon Musk's SpaceX, and Sierra Nevada—for a $3.5 billion NASA contract to keep the ISS astronauts well-fed, warm and occupied.
NASA is preparing to pick one, or possibly two, companies for the seven-year contract. But in the past two years, this space race has been more NASCAR than Apollo. In October 2014, Orbital's Antares rocket—also carrying ISS supplies—blew up shortly after liftoff. In April 2015, the Russians lost their Progress 59 cargo craft on the way to the station. In June 2015, Space X's Falcon 9 rocket—boosting an uncrewed Dragon cargo ship—exploded after launch from Canaveral.
Given these wipeouts, the stakes for the upcoming cargo launch on Dec. 3 are a little higher. The crew of the ISS isn't in danger of starving to death or anything like that; no, this is all about what the political people now call "optics." Some commercial space company has to prove to an agency with a checkbook that it can reliably get to the ISS.
"The development of new rockets has always been difficult," says Lori Garver, NASA's deputy administrator under President Obama from 2008 until 2013. She's now general manager of the Air Line Pilots Association. "It's yet to be seen how it will work for commercial companies. We use 'rocket science' as an example of the hardest thing for a reason: it is hard."
Unlike satellite launches, sending up rockets to supply (and someday deliver) astronauts is not only hard, but also expensive. The SpaceX failure alone cost taxpayers $110 million.
Made in the USA
NASA has been relying on Russian and Japanese launches to keep the ISS supply train moving. But Congress wants the space agency to get American launch vehicles back into the sky. "The United States has been the lead in this sector since the beginning," Garver said. "And we want to keep that lead. Of course we understand the partnerships are very beneficial, but without launch capability, it would be like giving up making our own airplanes."
Given current tensions with Russia over geopolitical issues, it's always good to have more options. And with NASA and its international partners planning to keep the ISS running until at least 2024, the cargo contract will be a key source of money for the booming private space industry. The problem is that NASA's budget—just like every other agency in the federal government—is at the mercy of Congress, which has passed a series of "continuing resolutions" instead of a longer-term budget plan. That means delays in picking a cargo crew contractor, a choice now scheduled for the end of January.
"For NASA, the biggest uncertainty is how much can they afford to do," says Scott Pace, director of the Space Policy Institute at George Washington University and NASA associate administrator for program analysis under President George W. Bush.
For Thursday's launch, Orbital's ATK Cygnus vehicle will ride atop an Atlas V rocket (built by competitor United Launch Alliance, which recently dropped out of the chase for the resupply contract). The Atlas V uses Russian-made RD-180 engines, something that the Pentagon won't allow on its spy satellite program, and that may give the edge to SpaceX or Orbital ATK if they can get their "Made in USA" launch vehicles flying again.
SpaceX plans to launch a reconfigured Falcon 9 rocket to the ISS on Jan. 3. As for the underdog, Sierra Nevada's DreamChaser cargo ship may be just that. "Sierra Nevada has been self-funding, so it's not clear how long they can keep doing that," Pace says. "But they have hung in there longer than people thought they would."
Here's a very dramatic-sounding rendering of how the DreamCatcher is supposed to work:
NASA won't comment directly on the contract process, but a spokesperson says the agency took knowledge gained from the first crew contracts and applied it to the requirements for the offers made on the second contracts. For example, the requirement is for individual missions, rather than specifying the delivery of 20 metric tons of mass. (These missions will be heavier, anyway.)
"We need cargo delivered to the International Space Station on a regular and reliable basis," says NASA spokeswoman Stephanie Schierholz in an e-mail. "Regular commercial resupply missions enable NASA and our partners to continue our extensive and ongoing scientific research aboard the International Space Station."
During the contract-awarding window, none of the bidders would comment on their projects.
The Next Stage
Once NASA administrators make their final decision (expected at the end of January), the next step will be to pick a private company that can reliably deliver not cargo but actual astronauts. That competition is down to SpaceX and ULA/Boeing, but Pace believes that the commercial space industry needs a bigger goal than just driving to the same low-earth orbit place every few months.
"There is no commercial market other than the station right now," Pace says. "The real concern is what comes after."
Like what? Well, Mars, right? That's where Elon Musk says he wants SpaceX to go. And according to a new report by the inspector general,
NASA won't be able to send a human mission to Mars until the 2030s. The report found that the space agency "faces significant challenges" ensuring the safety of any Mars-bound astronauts.
Actually, both Pace and Garver said that a better target is only three days journey away from Earth. "The people who knew how to fly to the Moon are all retired or dead," Pace says. "It is not just people or technologies that fly into space, it is entire organizations."
A lunar voyage set up as as a private-public-international deal would both spread out the risk and lower the cost. Of course, that decision would have to be made by the next president. "The Apollo program was all about demonstrating about what the us could do by itself," Pace said. "Today space leadership is about how many people can you get to come with you."
But even if the next stop is the Moon, the first stop will have to be the space station.

There are a lot of new restaurants in The Block, SM North EDSA. We saw a burger place called Grind Burger. It's located right in front of the Hypermarket at the Ground Floor.
Interiors are simple and pleasant to the eyes. The space is quite small, so there is no room for unnecessary clutter.
We ordered the Grind Burger, described as having "100% USDA house ground beef, brioche from the oven, vine ripe tomato, iceberg, sweet onion, American cheese and tiny's secret sauce". We were intrigued by the Deep Fried Mac and Cheese Balls, so we got that too.
The burger was a winner! The beef was juicy and the bread was delicious! They make their own brioche buns and they complement the burger wonderfully.
I liked the presentation of the mac and cheese balls. It gives a different twist to an old dish. But I wasn't too crazy about it. I don't think I'll order it next time.
We enjoyed our burgers in Grind. It's really great that they have delicious buns too.

Review: I Like You
Review: I Like YouJump to Recipe
Every Sunday, I review a cookbook in an attempt to lend some guidance in a field that has become overrun. These days everyone is writing cookbooks and it is incredibly upsetting to buy a dud and have it sit on your shelf for years – staring at you, mocking your poor judgment.
When I got "I Like You" by Amy Sedaris, I had a feeling I was in for a treat. I've always thought she is really funny but I wasn't sure how her humor would translate into a cookbook. As soon as I got into though, I realized that this book is more than a cookbook. What is it then? I'm not really sure I can answer that, but there is a lot of stuff in it. Most of it is helpful. All of it is hilarious.
The Art of Hospitality – While this book is very funny, it actually does have some good lessons in it. Amy starts off the book with a small section that includes some tips and tricks for hosting a party successfully. Some of them made me actually laugh out loud. Betsy thought I was crazy.
The section includes possible guest combinations to avoid (Psychologist & psychiatrist or Serial killer & drunken teenager). It includes examples of a party log and even how to write appropriate guest invitations. Of course all of the examples are jokes, but they do get you thinking about all of the elements of a successful party.
It seems like the underlying theme of the section though is to chill out. A lot of people take party hosting a bit to seriously. Most guests are just looking to have a good time and it can be pretty easy and non-stressful to show them that.
Real tips! – Ok. Once you get past the fact that the book is hilarious you'll find some real tips in this section that are not there just for comedic relief. For example:
– Shopping. "Government checks are issued on the 1st and the 15th which means crowds of families on these dates." Try to avoid it if you are in a hurry
– Menu tips. "If the texture of the food you are serving is creamy, flattery it with crispy. Crunchy will punch up soggy." Good to keep in mind.
– Planning. "Don't do the bulk of your shopping the day of the party. You never know what a store might be out of…"
Of course, before and after these real tips are more hilarious tips. Without a doubt, this was the funniest 30 pages I've ever read in a book about entertaining or food. It was a joy to read.
Hospitality in Action – The majority of this book is devoted to parties. About two thirds of the pages are accounts of Amy preparing parties. How she decorates, what she serves, and even what she wears. And guess what. It is funny.
Out of the 23 different events she covers, there are a few that I personally thought were the best.
– A Rich Uncle Comes to Visit. I love the idea of entertaining rich people because it is definitely a problem I do not normally have. If I did though, I would be sure to put things on the menu like "Golden Yukon Potato Wedges" and "Carrot Coins." She also gives some cool tips like running your dishes through the dishwasher on the dry cycle which warms them up like a fancy schmancy restaurant.
– Grieving. Who hasn't needed a good dish for a grieving friend (or yourself). Of course Amy somehow makes even these sad situations funny, but mainly what I like about this chapter is it has some of the best recipes. Out-of-this-world Potato Salad, Zucchini Fritters, and Artichokes Au Gratin are all deliciously featured.
– Entertaining the Elderly. The entire chapter is in like 40 font. It includes such classics as I Remember the War Cube Steak.
What about the Recipes? – At the end of the day, most of the value you could get out of this book will be the recipes (and the good laughs). In general the recipes are very unique. Since each chapter features a full menu, there are a bunch of recipes to go through.
One problem I have with the recipes is that Amy assumes that you have a fair amount cooking experience. She does not give a lot of instruction. She frequently uses phrases like "Cook as you like it." Well what the heck does that mean? A lot of people need some sort of time guides. But if you have a fair knowledge of food and the kitchen then the recipes aren't too difficult.
At the same time she does provide directions for some of the more complex recipes so it isn't as if she just leaves you stranded in the kitchen with nothing but chuckles.
Idea Explosion – I have no idea how one human being could come up with all of the ideas in this book. It is pure insanity. After reading it, I want nothing more than to attend one of Amy's parties. I have this vision of her walking around in sheer pantyhose serving cocktails in hand decorated martini glasses and giving tips on how to keep my hairline from receding.
It's that kind of book.
In all honesty, I think the best think you could do with this book would be to give it to someone. It would make a fantastic gift. But maybe not to someone who has an aversion to cussing. Or fun.

Oh, that book is on my 'to read' list! Amy Sedaris is AWESOME!
I love that book. The munchies section is priceless.
I like the rooster's bucket. It makes a great gift.
This should get reported! Who agrees ?

ABC a company dealing in Garments business and has large market share among the metropolitans all across Pakistan. Mr. XYZ is a local cloth supplier to different cities. He got into a contract with the company ABC for purchasing a variety of clothes. The company agreed to provide Mr. XYZ the best quality clothes on prices as per the terms of the contract. Both these parties made a contract for two years with each other.
Mr.XYZ found the clothes inline with the terms and conditions of the contract upon the receipt, stood satisfied and decided to extend the contract for a long term for being in profits. After a span of 6 months, Mr XYZ suddenly observed that the quality of the clothes has broken down and are defective as well. He found that the variety of the clothes have fallen down. The reason behind this was that the company sent a poor variety of clothes to the cloth merchant on the same prices.

Recapitulating Phylogeny May 17, 2005Posted by David Card in Search.

As usual, Clay Shirky is wise. As usual, as an academic who gets paid by the pound, he is incredibly long-winded. Read this, it's worth it. Why tagging links makes more sense than directories in the long run. (Think Google vs. the original Yahoo.)
There are places where directories work better: stable and restricted entities, expert catalogers and users. Where the ontology is familiar and agreed upon, it adds value.
Shirky ducks the apple the computer vs. apple the fruit issue. I'd say you suggest context options on the fly, based on links that aren't completely based on popularity. Expert editors, maybe? Links of links? Links of links by expert editors? That's for the PhDs at Google and Vivissimo and Endeca to figure out.
I'm a guy who once said the Internet wouldn't catch on until there was a Dewey Decimal system. Yeah, then came search. Who needs XML when you've got mass audience/editors?
Oh, and actually, the quote is "Ontogeny recapitulates phylogeny," not ontology, but most people make the same mistake.

Dairy Free & Gluten Free Lemon Curd Tart Recipe
Whip up a batch to share and watch as ten tarts turns into a single crumb in seconds…
Makes: 10
Free from: gluten and dairy
Tart shells
2 tablespoons Bioglan Coconut Oil, melted, plus extra, for greasing
1½ cups (180g) almond meal
¼ cup (45g) buckwheat flour
2 tablespoons Bioglan Chia Seeds
2 pitted medjool dates
2½ tablespoons pure maple syrup
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 tablespoon water
fresh berries, to serve
Lemon curd
½ cup (125ml) fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon finely grated lemon zest
2 free-range eggs
2 free-range egg yolks
2½ tablespoons pure maple syrup
3½ tablespoons Bioglan Coconut Oil
1. Preheat the oven to 140°C (Gas 2). Grease 10 holes of a 1/3 cup (80ml) capacity muffin tin with coconut oil.
2. Put the almond meal, buckwheat flour, chia seeds, dates, maple syrup, coconut oil and vanilla extract in a food processor or high-powered blender and blend until combined. Add the water and process until the mixture forms a dough-like consistency, adding extra water if it is too dry. Press into muffin holes and bake for 25 minutes or until the tart shells are slightly golden and crisp.
3. Meanwhile, to make the lemon curd, place a small saucepan over a larger saucepan of simmering water, making sure the smaller saucepan isn't touching the water. Reduce the heat to low. Pour in the lemon juice, lemon zest, eggs, egg yolks and maple syrup and whisk until combined. Gradually whisk in the coconut oil, 1 tablespoon at a time, until it is completely melted. Continue whisking until the mixture gradually thickens to the consistency of lemon curd. Remove from the heat and cover the surface with plastic wrap to prevent a skin forming. Allow to cool completely, then place in the fridge to firm up.
4. Once the tart shells are cool, fill with the lemon curd and top with a fresh berry.

Scott Beaudry and Theresa Chu (CMN MA '09) take turns in the kitchen, baking furiously to keep up with demand for their all-natural, preservative-free dog treats. All the while, Barley, their 5-year-old lab mix, waits patiently to perform her duty as vice president of quality control. "She's been our taste tester from the very beginning," says Chu. "Granted, eating is one of her favorite past times so I'm not sure how discerning of a palate she has, but she loves them." The treats come in three flavors—cheese, peanut butter and pumpkin—and each has been carefully vetted by Barley herself. "We knew she liked them when we'd give her those first trials and she ate them up immediately," Chu recalls. "We knew we were on the right track."
Barley Labs was born out of a desire to reduce waste. Beaudry had started home brewing and was looking for ways to recycle used barley when he stumbled upon a recipe for dog treats. After months spent painstakingly tweaking recipes, Beaudry found the perfect balance, and he and Chu started distributing dog treats to family and friends. "For us, it was all about using ingredients that people understood right off the bat," Chu explains. "There are basically four ingredients: spent grain, egg, flour and the main flavor component. When you read it, you know exactly what's going into your dog."
By September 2012, Barley Labs was in full swing, thanks in large part to the spent grain donated by Fullsteam Brewery in Durham, N.C. Today, the company's treats are available in 49 retail locations in seven states, as well as online at barleylabs.com and wag.com. "Barley has been a huge part of our lives," Chu says. "It's hard to imagine life without her, so we donate 10 cents from every bag we sell to our local shelter in Durham. This year, on the anniversary of Barley's adoption [March 7], we donated a dollar from each bag sold on our website to PAWS Chicago."
Chu uses many of the skills she learned at DePaul in the day-to-day operations of Barley Labs. "DePaul gave me a well-rounded view of marketing, public relations and advertising that I apply to my business," she asserts. "Those basic, core principles that I learned at DePaul had an impact on the way we built Barley Labs." From creating branding to publicizing it effectively, Chu credits DePaul with preparing her for the realities of running her own business. "I'm still learning every day," she says. "I make mistakes and not everything is perfect, but at the very least having that foundation gives me the confidence to make informed decisions."
She entered the Intuit Small Business Big Game contest to win a Super Bowl XLVIII commercial on a whim, the public-relations professional in her deeming it "silly" not to at least try. "We didn't think we'd make it far," she remembers. Weeks passed, and Barley Labs remained in the running, ultimately making it to the top four. While they didn't win the Super Bowl commercial, Barley Labs received a national commercial and $25,000 for their business. "We might not have won the big prize, but it certainly still feels like we won," Chu laughs. Thanks to the contest, Barley Labs' sales have jumped more than 100 percent, accelerating the growth of their business five years in just a few months. "We never expected this business to be anything more than a small, local dog treat business," she stresses. "We're incredibly grateful."

All these can be printed on different thickness of paper:
For us to quote your printing please provide with:
To ensure your artwork is print ready please ensure that it meets the following requirements:
FILE FORMAT - Our preferred format for accepting artwork is as a high-resolution PDF.
RESOLUTION - Files, including any images, need to be at least 300 dpi to print clearly, otherwise images may appear bit mapped, fuzzy, distorted or pixilated. Most images found on the internet are 72 dpi and are generally not suitable for professional printing.
COLOURS - Files must be set up as CMYK for colours to print accurately. Files that are sent to us using RGB, Pantone, or spot colours will be automatically converted to CMYK which may cause some changes to your colours.
If you require us to match your colours, you must send in an example of the colour to match to (even if we have printed it before). However, most, but not all colours are achievable using CMYK, so if we cannot match your colour we will inform you before printing.
FONTS - If we don't have the font you have used, it may be automatically substituted for an alternative font. To avoid this happening, please embed or outline all the fonts used in your document before sending us the final artwork.
CROP MARKS - The PDF file always needs crop marks included so we know where to trim your artwork once printed.
BLEED - Please include a MINIMUM 3mm BLEED on each side of your artwork.
A bleed is an area of your image that is outside the final cut of your printed piece. It is used to extend an image, colour or line beyond the artwork edge, which enables us to guillotine the finished product without leaving a white line. For example, if you want your business card background to be entirely blue, you must bleed the blue colour past the edge of the final size of your business card. This prevents a white line down one or more edges of your print, caused by very slight variations in guillotining and trimming which can be 1mm.
TEXT - We advise that any text should be at least 5mm away from the edge of the finished size.
SIZE - All artwork needs to be set to actual size of the leaflet.
This is for printing only and does not include design or delivery. Design and distribution is available on request.

Fuck the fucking snow. Fuck this winter. Fuck corporations in general and especially fuck athletic corporations.
Obviously the max of 223 below is a Polar monitor glitch. I didn't catch blip while working out, but I do believe the average because I was burning really high.
We'd decided to go to an early evening movie yesterday, not knowing this latest fucking storm would dump New England levels of snow. I was the one who suggested we get our grocery shopping done early – to toot my own horn, because if I don't no one else will – and it was a damn good thing because it was already getting pretty hairy by the time we headed home. And judging by the stocks the food co-op had right before the last snow, there would've been very slim pickings by that fucking point.
The main point of my mentioning that is with the shopping and the movie I didn't get a workout in yesterday. You can be sure that this morning I: meditated; did my mantra; did the banishing spell and then got my workout in. Hey, with this storm I lose the chance to make any pocket change this week. And I lost another week due to the fucking cold. I'll have my endorphins, thank you.

Sparkle & Shine with Glitz Design
Hi friends! Today I am sharing a "sparkle and shine" project with you - one where we highlight Glitz's awesome embellishments. I chose to feature the new glitter washi tape today. It is really fabulous. You should definitely get some if you haven't seen it yet! It's a very fine glitter that is embedded in the tape and doesn't flake off at all.
I started out by using both colors of tape to cover a piece of white cardstock. Make sure to line up the tapes edge to edge so you don't see any white showing through.
Use a punch to punch shapes out of the glitter cardstock. Funny story - originally I was going to just use the stars on my layout, but once I saw how great the negative space looked I decided to use that too!
As you can see I backed the negative spaces with some patterned paper from the 6x6 pads.
I love using my typewriter for my journaling and cutting out the strips to add to my layout. Also -- the Friday washi was perfect for this layout because it actually happened on a Friday! I love when that happens.
And that's it for today! Hopefully you will try this technique out soon! It works with any type of washi. Thanks for stopping by and have a great weekend :)
Here We Go layout supplies:
Glitz Design "Brightside" papers - Chunky Chevron, 6x6 paper pad

What is Telecare?
The aim of telecare is to enable people to stay independent in their own home for as long as possible. The official definition is support and assistance provided at a distance using information and communication technology. It is the continuous, automatic and remote monitoring of users by means of sensors.
Our investigations into Telecare made us think differently, and more positively about it. None of us want to 'spy' on our families, so the prospect of monitors and call centres is pretty alarming – quite literally. We came round to the view that technology can be amazing, a lifesaver even, when used in the right way at the right time. It never replaces the human factor, but it most definitely plays a vital role.
How Telecare works
The simplest products are called personal alarms. They consist of a button – often a pendant around the neck, or on the wrist, and a base unit that works with the telephone. When the button is pushed, a call will automatically go via the telephone line to a monitoring centre, staffed 24/7 by trained operators. You agree with the call-centre operator what responses might be. You can also have the alarm call go through to a carer or specified individual.
The base unit is a two way device enabling direct conversation with the monitoring centre if you're within chatting range of the base unit. There are lots of monitoring centres around the UK and different services available and a range of prices as well. You might want to consider a local one with local resources and access.
Passive telecare
But. What do you do if the person wearing the pendant can't/won't activate it? The answer may lie in elements of passive telecare.
Through sensors placed around the house, or even in specific places such as the bed, or a favourite chair, passive telecare systems raise the alarm through the phone to the centre if it registers "out of the normal" behaviour. So, if someone falls over and is unable to get up, the sensors registers the lack of movement within a set time, and will raise the alarm. Simples.
During our research we learnt that telecare offers all sorts of monitoring, from kitchen activity which could tell you if someone is eating regularly, to gas/water/carbon monoxide monitoring. The more sophisticated telecare and telehealth solutions can monitor individual health concerns, provide daily medication for example, or monitor movements outside the home for example if someone goes wandering.
You can get some alarm systems from the local authority as part of a care package, and funding can be available through the NHS as part of a continuing healthcare package or intermediate care.
Here is a guide to other kinds of monitoring that is available…… our personal favourite is Smart Shoes which have a built-in sensor so that they can send an alert if someone has a fall. They also have a GPS sensor so it would be possible to locate someone accurately.
Bed or chair occupancy sensor – placed on a mattress or a chair and the monitoring centre receives an alert when the person has got up and not returned within an agreed period of time. An occupancy sensor can also be programmed to switch lights on and off which can be a very important aid when getting in and out of bed.
Bogus caller button – can be placed next to the front door or at the bedside. They are often called panic buttons and can be programmed to make no sound so that when the button is pressed the operator can listen to a situation and intervene when necessary.
Carbon Monoxide Monitors designed to provide an immediate alarm when they sense dangerous levels of carbon monoxide inside the home – an alarm will sound and help will be called through the control box.
Incontinence Sensors – a thin, discreet sensor pad placed between the bedding and mattress—it raises an audible alarm and sends an emergency call to the monitoring centre for assistance.
Medication management units are very helpful if you have to take tablets at different times of the day or if you have difficulty remembering whether or not they have been taken. The unit is pre-programmed to prompt you to take your medication and will dispense the tablets when they are due to be taken. If the tablets are not removed at the pre-set time then the monitoring centre is automatically alerted and a carer, a friend or relative will be contacted to remind you about the missed medication.
Property exit sensors – placed above a front door and/or a back door and they detect when someone leaves the property and does not return within a pre-set period of time. When this occurs the monitoring centre is automatically alerted and will contact a carer or service to assist you.
Temperature extreme sensors will detect a fire in a kitchen where a smoke alarm may raise a false alarm. It will also alert the monitoring centre if the temperature is too cold in the house — this could be if the central heating breaks down or if an outside door has been left open in cold weather.
The Which? Guide to Elderly Care has a good summary of telecare.

Mums with older kids have more 'me time' – about enough to boil a kettle and have a cuppa; half of us feel working mother guilt; and the main reason we take time out is to save our sanity.
These are some of the findings of the Changing Face of Motherhood Report by Proctor & Gamble, that explores how motherhood has changed in Australia since the turn of the century.
What about me?
'Me time' is in short supply once we become mothers. But as our children get older we slowly claw back a few extra minutes a day. 12 minutes, to be exact.
Opportunities for 'me time' are least among mothers in the 30-34 age group (33 minutes a day) and the highest in the 40+ age group (45 minutes a day), reflecting a slight freeing up of time as children get older.
Time spent with the kids
The amount of time that mothers devote to active time with their children varies as you would expect between age groups, but still not as much as you would think. Mothers in the 18-29 year age group reported spending 19.2 hours on directly caring for their children per week, while those in the 40+ group spent an average of 14.1 hours per week, or about 2 hours a day. (This is on top of outside work and other household commitments.) Presumably this takes into account all that running them around to sleepovers, sport and dental appointments, along with homework help.
Mother guilt
We frequently hear about working mother guilt, but Australian mums are fairly evenly split between those who feel guilty (55%) and those who feel no guilt at all (45%) about balancing work commitments with the time they spend with their children (those with children aged 3-5 years were most likely to feel guilty).
Taking time out
In this survey, mothers were asked about their primary motivations for taking time out. 73% of all mums said they did this to maintain their sanity. 'Me time' and 'To spend time with your partner' were also significant reasons.
Our mothering style
Although many believe that the way we bring up our children is strongly influenced by their own childhood experiences and, in particular, by the role played by their mothers, this poll reveals a different outcome.
78% of today's mothers believe they have a different parenting style to their own mother. In 34% of cases, today's mums consider themselves to be more relaxed, and in 29% of cases, they feel they are more nurturing than their own mother was when they were young.
Dads help less with older children
Although it seems that modern day fathers are playing a greater role in raising children than they did in previous generations this was more evident the younger the children. Grandmas came in as the second biggest source of caring for the kids in the home (21%). Sadly, 16% of mums say they have no help at all.
Sources of advice and support
According to parenting author Pinky McKay, motherhood is never, or should never be, a solitary undertaking. It is a special characteristic of the human race that we employ 'alloparenting', involving other members of the family and the wider community in at least some aspects of childcare. Our own mums are our greatest source of advice (42%); friends who are also mums were second in importance (39%).
Despite the upbeat feelings towards motherhood, isolation emerged as a widespread issue. No less than 87% of modern day mums say they experience feelings of isolation, with 36% feeling isolated on most days. This figure rises to 55% amongst mothers who are not married.
"While modern day mums are obviously relishing their role, the reality is that being a mum has never been so challenging. With increasing pressure to work a 'double shift', to be the perfect hands-on mum as well as going out to work, support networks are more important than ever before," said Pinky.
Improving the situation
Not surprisingly, getting more help around the home was deemed by most mums as the key to improving their quality of life, followed by more flexible working hours.
"The hardest job in the world, is the best job in the world"
And now, to prove that mums are awesome (and quite possibly to make you cry a litte), Proctor & Gamble has released a new ad celebrating the role of mums all over the world in helping their children achieve great things. Like reaching the 2012 Olympic Games.
Happy Mother's Day.

The other day my Bro sent me a box with recipes, rolling pins, and cookbooks. The book on the left was my Mom's cookbook. She bought the middle one for me when I got married. I bought the one on the right for my Son when I sent him off to college.
I have been using the two on the right for years now. Most of the BASIC recipes are the same...mostly. But I find that I prefer to have MINE for most of my basics. Like pie crust, or waffles. THOSE recipes are committed to memory.
When I look at my Mom's cookbook, I notice it is pretty worn out like mine. The binder is broken and all the recipes are out of order. When I was looking through her recipe boxes, I found pages from her cookbook folded and stored in there. I would bet the holes were ripped for the binder and she was afraid she would lose it.
I have to say, I get it. I have been collecting cookbooks since I was around 22 years old. I have read them all like novels, cover to cover. It was like collecting knowledge. I would read a recipe that would stick in my head and later when I was making something else I would think..." I may not have everything for THIS recipe, but I remember in this other recipe the used (whatever) instead."
Today they have an App that you can put in what ingredients you have, and it will give you a list of things you can make from them.
But for me...I like having something to touch. That I can carry around and mull over.
They are my friends...they have helped me make many a yummy meal.
With many more to come.

We went on the district outing yesterday, round the Peterborough area.
First up was Fotherighay, a very impressive church in what is now a pretty small village. A nice (although loud) ring of 6, and we managed a lovely course of Cambridge minor.
Next up was the lovely 8 at Castor, followed by speading out for lunch so as not to overwhelm any of the local establishments.
After lunch, we went to the very light 6 at Wansford. Many struggled, but it was a good experience - visiting a variety of towers will help improve most people's ringing. Amanda grabbed the tenor, which is probably the lightest bell she's ever rung.
Off to Peterborough for some serious rings. St John the Baptist are a 25cwt eight, in stark contrast to a very light six. And then off to the Cathedral, to try out the twelve.
Unfortunately, we simply didn't have the ringers to do more than rounds on the twelve. I guess that many people on the outing had never been to a twelve before. Good experience, but not enough strength overall to bring anybody on.

Warner Bros. has released three new images of Ryan Reynolds in his full Green Lantern costume. Since the suit is entirely CGI and was made that way so it could pulsate, glow, and do other kinds of neat visual effects, still images don't really do it justice. I'm more interested in seeing how it's represented on screen and in motion.
Hit the jump to check out the costume shots. The film also stars Blake Lively, Peter Sarsgaard, and Mark Strong. Green Lantern opens in 3D on June 17th. Click here for all of our coverage on the flick.
Images via Breaking News USA via ComingSoon.
Here's the official synopsis for Green Lantern:
In a universe as vast as it is mysterious, a small but powerful force has existed for centuries. Protectors of peace and justice, they are called the Green Lantern Corps. A brotherhood of warriors sworn to keep intergalactic order, each Green Lantern wears a ring that grants him superpowers. But when a new enemy called Parallax threatens to destroy the balance of power in the Universe, their fate and the fate of Earth lie in the hands of their newest recruit, the first human ever selected: Hal Jordan.
Hal is a gifted and cocky test pilot, but the Green Lanterns have little respect for humans, who have never harnessed the infinite powers of the ring before. But Hal is clearly the missing piece to the puzzle, and along with his determination and willpower, he has one thing no member of the Corps has ever had: humanity. With the encouragement of fellow pilot and childhood sweetheart Carol Ferris (Blake Lively), if Hal can quickly master his new powers and find the courage to overcome his fears, he may prove to be not only the key to defeating Parallax…he will become the greatest Green Lantern of all.

Taylor is also expected to implicate foreign countries with or without embassies in Liberia and Sierra Leone. Taylor and Sankoh turned their struggles into fantastic money enterprises and it is suspected that their stunning achievements in gaining access to the rich diamond fields of Liberia and Sierra Leone could not have happened without the collaboration of people in high places.
As some Liberians were joking yesterday, it is hoped that the LIBERIAN PAPAY does not die unceremoniously like his counterpart in Sierra Leone , because the world needs to know the truth about the wars in Liberia and Sierra Leone.

Positive reports this morning that Charles Taylor has been captured. Reuters is reporting that Taylor is being flown to Monrovia, where UN peacekeepers will arrest him and then deliver to the Special Court for Sierra Leone. See below

To accelerate breakthrough cancer research in the human genome, the Gene Editing Institute at Christiana Care's Helen F. Graham Cancer Center & Research Institute has entered into an agreement with The Wistar Institute. The agreement expands the historic partnership between the Graham Cancer Center, one of the nation's largest community cancer centers, and Wistar, the nation's first National Cancer Institute (NCI)-designated cancer center dedicated solely to biomedical research. Established in 2011, the partnership was the first-ever interinstitutional affiliation between an NCI-designated basic research institution and a community cancer center.
In this partnership, the Gene Editing Institute will be integrated into Wistar's Molecular Screening Facility, which will allow its innovative gene-editing technologies to be made available to research projects at Wistar and to external users. The Gene Editing Institute will retain its management structure and will remain located at the Graham Cancer Center on the Christiana Hospital Campus in Newark, Delaware. The Molecular Screening Facility will remain housed at Wistar in Philadelphia.
Unlocking Genetic Mechanisms
Eric Kmiec, PhD
Under the direction of molecular biologist Eric Kmiec, PhD, the Gene Editing Institute is unlocking the genetic mechanisms that drive cancer, potentially leading to revolutionary new therapies. Through funding from the National Institutes of Health, the American Cancer Society, and private foundations, the Gene Editing Institute utilizes the next generation of precision genetic tools, including CRISPRs (clustered regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats) and TALENs (transcription activator-like effector nucleases), which manipulate and control genetic material.
In a breakthrough discovery, researchers at the Gene Editing Institute found that combining CRISPRs and single-stranded DNA oligodeoxynucleotides (short strands of synthetic DNA) greatly enhances precision and reliability in editing the human genome. With this combination, researchers are better able to identify and develop innovative therapies to revolutionize cancer treatment.
Collaborative Research
"Gene editing is rapidly becoming one of the most dominant and impactful techniques in biomedical research today," said Dr. Kmiec. "The Gene Editing Institute provides an important core function and expertise in collaborative work with scientists at The Wistar Institute, who continue to maintain state-of-the-art research programs in cancer."
He added, "Combining our research groups creates a powerful and innovative team with complementary biomedical skill sets that will accelerate the discovery of novel, therapeutic regimens in the treatment of many types of cancer." The two organizations have already begun scientific collaborations involving research on melanoma and lung cancer.
The Wistar Institute Molecular Screening Facility is a shared resource accessible to Wistar and non-Wistar scientists. The facility enables investigators to apply cutting-edge technology and unique resources to discover molecular, genetic, and small molecule compounds suitable to further study the functions of poorly understood proteins, signaling pathways, and cells in complex biologic processes relevant to human physiology and disease. ■
