|"The Angel Chalice"
Phoebe and Ramsay Traquair with J.M. Talbot
Scotland, 1905
This and all related images from:
The Victoria & Albert Museum
Made in Edinburgh, Scotland around 1905, this cup is constructed of an abalone shell mounted in silver and decorated with enamel. A pierced silver foliate border adorns the rim of the cup which is supported on three, sculptural wires which terminate in moonstone mounts at the rim. Mounts of enamel mimicking cabochon-cut gems adorn the junctions of the supporting wire frames which hold enamel paintings of angels with musical instruments. The monogram "PT" is visible on one of these three triangular panels.
This chalice is the work of Edinburgh artist and jeweler Phoebe Traquair (1852-1936) whose celebrated enamel work is praised to this day. Phoebe's husband, Ramsay, assisted on the design and the physical work was carried out by their frequent assistant J.M. Talbot. It's the first, and finest, of a series of five chalices set with shells designed by Ramsay and Phoebe Traquair, and crafted by Talbot.

Parisien to leave Symmetrics?
Late night in Bromont, after the Canada Cup, we ran into Francois Parisien at Broumont pub (excellent micro brewed local beer, the wheat is especially tasty). Frank was relaxing after winning a small stage race near Quebec City over the weekend where he and Dom Rollin dominated (Rollin won 2 stages, Parisien won 1 and the GC).
During our chat Frank revealed that he is considering asking for his release from Symmetrics if he is left off the team for Philly. Parisien is hoping for an Olympic berth and it is critical to ride the top races to be considered. Currently, he says, Symmetrics is not planning on naming him to the Philly team.
"Symmetrics is a great team, but they need to take the best riders to Philly and that is a circuit that really suits me. I need to be able to ride the big races if I want to be able to have a chance for Beijing."
Parisien says he is still discussing the situation with Symmetrics and hopes to have the situation resolved later this week, when he will either reach a satisfactory resolution with Symmetrics or ask for his release and look for a new team.

Growing in a Garden of Roses and Thorns: The Influence of Race, Gender, and Desire on Character Personality Development in 20th Century African-American Literature
Thesis Abstract
Race, gender, and desire have been themes present within African-American literature since the beginning of slave narratives. Within 20th century literature, African-American authors use such thematic elements to comment upon the position of African-Americans within modern day society, each relaying a different, and highly specific, message. This thesis explores the texts of The Bluest Eye by Toni Morrison, The Color Purple by Alice Walker, and Gorilla, My Love by Toni Cade Bambara to delve deeper into understanding the influence of race, gender, desire, and family relationships on the personality development of female characters. The messages of Morrison, Walker, and Bambara, while each unique, culminate to achieve a larger, significant message to the audience.

New Video Camera from Hubby
Layout I made the other night. Here's Felicia's 1st boo-boo. She was so good, she didn't even cry, But she was so darn cute. Just had to scrap it!!!
Finished Clock :) I had fun putting this together. I new a wanted a pic of my baby girl and I HAD to put Owls. So cute. I like the way it turned out.
New clock for my scrapbook room. I plan to add photo's and embelishments . Hope it turns out well. I thought it was the perfect design for my room. Cute idea eh? I'll post a photo once it is done.
Picture of me and my layout that was posted in Canadain Scrapbooking Magazine
My layout in Canadian Scrapbooking Magazine
Kleenex Box Inspiration
Layout I made inspired from this Kleenex box
Owl pictures for Felicia's future bedroom, made them myself. Cute eh.
I had mentioned that I make fabric covered albums. So I took a photo to show you. This is the fabric I chose for Felicia. I chose the animal theme becasue that is what I had put in her room when we got it "ready for baby". And i couldn't resist, look how cute they are.
The albums I made in the past consisted of a page for all the holiday and special occassions throught out the year. So for my daughters albums I did the same and more. I am in the process of making a 3rd album just to fit all my layouts in. This is a layout I made with her newpaper clipping and her beautiful new born face and her name. Sorry the colour is so light. I also made pages to record all the special moments and milstones for the year.
I "HAD" to scrapbook this picture of my baby girl. Isn't she just so cute without any teeth. Its funny to look back at pictures and see all they didn't have or couldn't do. I plopped her up on pillows and grabbed the camera. At that time it was so easy to take a picture, now that she is ONE, ha...
Every month, for the whole year, I took a picture of my daughter in front of a huge stuffed giraffe we have to see her growth. On this particular day she was smiling away at daddy who just happen to walk in while our little photo shoot.I just had to scrapbook it, she looks so sweet. I used paper to pick up on the red outfit she is wearing and I used the paper glaze to highlight some of the dots on the paper.The letters are felt stickers.
In this layout, I just experimented with my coloured paper. Nothing special I did here. I loved her feet and had to scrapbook it :) Oh wait I did use a few rubons from stampin up and I put paper glaze on the words to make them a little glossy.
This layout was inspired by Marion from A piece of craft .com. She does amazing work and I had to try this layout. I didn't have some of the things she had so I inprovised. I tried to use the colours from the photo.This pic was taken on my daughter 1st birthday, mommy holding back the tears as everyone sang.
I used this pattern paper for inspiration here. I used the qiuckutz to cut my spiral and glued several layers together to gift it a 3D effect and I also embossed the xoxo chipboards in white. Daddy and Felicia on Canada Day.
Yay!!! I finally did it. This is one of my fav. layouts of my baby girl. I love the black & white photo and the punch of pink from the flower.
This was Felicia's 1st Canada Day, I just had to scrapbook it. I also recently purchased "The Squeeze" hand tool and used it for my layout.
I placed a red bow on her sunhat for the day and later used it for my layout. Our Walmart recently received new Kodak picture kiosks and I love that I can make my photo's so tiny.You can fit so much more on a 81/2 x 11 layout.
I love how the colour of the phot turned out in this picture, I had bought this paper a while ago and was finally able to use it. I think the two work well together.
Card I made for my mom with my new Cuttlebug that she bought for me for my bday (Dad too). Love it!!!
Another card using the cuttlebug!

Students at Erie's Red Hawk Elementary School are dancing and singing along to some new tunes this month as they rehearse for an upcoming performance of "Have You Seen My Dinosaur?"
Hundreds of Red Hawk students are expected to perform in the show Thursday and Friday led by three high school students at Erie High School as part of the pilot program SCHOOLIMALOOZA.
The program seeks to educate students about animals and conservation while raising money for the school through tickets to the multimedia performance.
What: "Have You Seen My Dinosaur?"
When: 5:30 p.m. Thursday and Friday
Where: Erie High School auditorium, 3180 County Road 5, Erie
Cost: $12 for adults, $6 for students
More info: http://tinyurl.com/eriedinotickets
SCHOOLMALOOZA was launched this spring by Boulder-based ANIMALOOZA — a merger of two Emmy-Award winning childrens' education companies, Yesterday's Zoo and Big Green Company, that promotes children's health, environmental awareness and literacy.
SCHOOLIMALOOZA combines physical movement, music and videos into a live performance that teaches students about conservation and financially supports schools, said Shane DeRolf, ANIMALOOZA CEO and "chief creative officer."
Half of the proceeds from this week's shows will support Red Hawk's literacy program and the other half goes to ANIMALOOZA. A donation, 5 percent of the total proceeds, will also be made to support the conservation of Spider Monkeys at the Denver Zoo. Red Hawk students voted on what effort they wanted the donation to support.
Red Hawk principal Cyrus Weinberger said the program supports the school's academic priorities, which already includes 35 to 40 minutes of "rigorous movement" every day, with the financial benefit of a fundraiser.
"It's really something that compliments our efforts in terms of our movement program and academic environment, and supports our school," Weinberger said. "It also builds confidence and self esteem when students are on stage, something that we usually have to pay to put on."
SCHOOLIMALOOZA is free for schools, DeRolf said. The company provides the story line and online videos that teach the choreography and songs like "The Dinosaur Song," to students. The company also sells books and videos individually or through a monthly club subscription.
The show features a puppet, Detective Thing, who leads the performers and audience through 12 songs and videos about various animals during a mission to find the detective's lost dinosaur.
The school-based program was developed after ANIMALOOZA staff performed the show at the Boulder Theater in November to an excited crowd, DeRolf said.
"We clearly had something, so we starting thinking about what to do with the show," he said. "That's when we decided we could adapt the performance for elementary students, which goes directly to our mission of improving children's health through movement."
DeRolf was reading to students at Red Hawk when he pitched the idea to administrators and the pilot program was launched.
The program has already been approved by the St. Vrain Valley School District and Denver Public Schools to be adopted by district schools, DeRolf said. Staff are currently talking with the Boulder Valley School District and districts in Utah and Missouri about expanding the program to districts there.

No water whining
As an employee at one of the many restaurants participating in Project H2O, I must say I was appalled after reading "4Better or worse" in last week's issue [October 10, 2002] (http://www.readthehook.com/92577/4better-or-worse-week-review), in which we were accused of serving bottled water purely for profit.
You've got to be joking. In this dire time I feel that accusation is childish and completely uninformed.
Certainly we are accumulating profit from water sales, but what you apparently fail to realize is that we are spending that profit, small as it is, on the purchase of paper products in an attempt to conserve this precious resource.
You think we're doing it for the money?
Fine, come see me at the restaurant and I'll serve you tap water– but I refuse to listen to you whine when we do run out. In the future, perhaps your writers should think before they accuse.

I recently added a formal interface to testrepository to enable cross-machine scaling of test runs. As testrepository is still a static scheduler, this isn't perfect, but its quite a minimal interface, which makes it easy to implement. I will likely evolve it in reaction to feedback and experience.
In the long term I'd love to have a super generic tool that matches that interface, so the project VCS copy of .testr.conf can just call out to it. However I don't yet have that, but I do have a simple by-hand implementation that I use to run nova's tests across my personal laptop, desktop and work laptop.
Testr models this by assuming each test running process can be mapped to a single 'instance id' (which could be a chroot, vm, cloud instances, …) and then running one or more commands in the instance, before disposing of it.
This by hand implementation consists of 4 things:
- A tiny script to rsync my source directory to the relevant places before I run tests. (This takes <2seconds on my home wifi).
- A script to allocate instance ids (I just use ints)
- A script to discard them
- And a script to copy tempfiles onto the target machine and run a given command.
I do my testing in lxc containers, because I like my primary environment to be free of project-specific quirks and workarounds. lxc is not needed though, if you don't want it.
So, to set this up for yourself:
- on each host, make an lxc container (e.g. following) http://wiki.openstack.org/DependsOnUbuntu
- start them all (lxc-start -n nova -d)
- Make SSH config entries for the lxc containers, so you can get at them remotely. (make sure your host * rules are at the end of the file otherwise the master overrides won't work [and you might not notice for some time…]):
Host desktop-nova.lxc # lxc addresses may be present on localhost too, so namespace the control # path to avoid connecting to the wrong container. ControlPath ~/.ssh/master-lxc-%r@%h:%p hostname 10.0.3.19 ProxyCommand ssh 192.168.1.106 nc -q0 %h %p Host hplaptop-nova.lxc # lxc addresses may be present on localhost too, so namespace the control # path to avoid connecting to the wrong container. ControlPath ~/.ssh/master-lxc-%r@%h:%p hostname 10.0.3.244 ProxyCommand ssh 192.168.1.116 nc -q0 %h %p
- make a script to copy your nova source tree to each test location. I called mine 'sync'
#!/bin/bash cd $(dirname $0) echo syncing in $(pwd) (rsync -a . desktop-nova.lxc:source/openstack/nova --delete-after && echo dell done) & (rsync -a . hplaptop-nova.lxc:source/openstack/nova --delete-after && echo hp done)
- Make sure you have the base directory on each location
ssh desktop-nova.lxc mkdir -p source/openstack ssh hplaptop-nova.lxc mkdir -p source/openstack
- Sync your code over.
- And check tests run by running a few.
ssh hplaptop-nova.lxc "cd source/openstack/nova && ./run_tests.sh compute" ssh hplaptop-nova.lxc "cd source/openstack/nova && ./run_tests.sh compute"
This will check the test environment: we're not going to be running tests on each node via run-tests or even testr (because it gets immediately meta), but if this fails, later attempts won't work. Your test virtualenv is inside the source tree, so it is copied implicitly by the sync.
- Decide what concurrency you want. For me, I picked 12: I have a desktop i7 with 4 cores, and two laptops with 2 cores each, and hyperthreads are on on all of them – I'm going to set a concurrency figure of 12 – between the cores (8) and threads (16) counts, and possibly balance it more in future. A higher number assumes less contention between ALU's and other elements of the core pipeline, and I expect quite some contention because most of nova's unittests are CPU bound not I/O. If the test servers are not busy, I can always raise it later.
- Create scripts to create / dispose / execute logical worker threads.
- Creation. I call this 'instance-provision' and all it does is find the lowest ints not currently allocated and return them.
#!/usr/bin/env python import os.path import sys if not os.path.isdir('.instances'): os.mkdir('.instances') running_ids = os.listdir('.instances') count = int(sys.argv[1]) top = count + len(running_ids) ids = [str(i) for i in range(top)] new = set(ids) - set(running_ids) for id in new: file('.instances/%s' % id, 'w').close() print(' '.join(new))
- Disposal is easy: remove the file marking the instance as in-use.
#!/bin/bash echo freeing $@ cd .instances rm $@
- Execution is a little trickier. We need to run some commands locally, and other ones by copying in temp files that testr has setup to the machine sshing to the remote machine, cd'ing to the right directory, sourcing the virtual env, and finally running the command.
#!/bin/bash instance="$(($1 % 4))" case $instance in [0]) node= local="true" ;; [1]) node=hplaptop-nova.lxc local="" ;; [2-3]) node=desktop-nova.lxc local="" ;; *) echo "Unknown instance $instance" >&2 exit 1 ;; esac shift files= # accumulate files to copy while [ "--" != "$1" ]; do files="$files $1" shift ; done shift if [ -n "$files" -a -z "$local" ]; then echo copying $files to node. for f in $files; do rsync $f $node:$(dirname $f) ; done fi if [ -n "$local" ]; then eval $@ else echo ssh to $node ssh $node "cd source/openstack/nova && . .venv/bin/activate && $@" fi
- Finally, tell testr how to use this. (Don't commit this change to nova, as it would break other people). Add this to your .testr.conf.
test_run_concurrency=echo 12 instance_provision=./instance-provision $INSTANCE_COUNT instance_execute=./instance-execute $INSTANCE_ID $FILES -- $COMMAND instance_dispose=./instance-dispose $INSTANCE_IDS
Now, when you run testr run –parallel, it will run across your machines. Just do a ./sync before running tests to get the code out there. It is possible to wrap all of this up via automation (or to include just-in-time provisioned cloud instances), but I like the results of still rough scripts here – it strikes a good balance between effort, reliability and performance.
Edit: I spent a bit of time poking at my config – it turns out that my laptop (coming up on 3 years old now) has relatively less grunt – so I'm now running mod 8, with 0 my laptop, 1-2 my work laptop, 3-7 my desktop, and interestingly by running a proportionately overloaded set of tests I get a time reduction.
time testr run --parallel --concurrency=16

This easy, nutrient-dense dish was inspired by leftovers. Looking at a simple dish of leftover quinoa, I suddenly remembered how easy it was to use leftover rice to make arancini. Lo, a dish was born: Quinoa Arancini. Or should it be Arancinoa? Quinoacini?
Regardless, it works equally well as a side dish, as an appetizer, or as a food to stand in the kitchen eating straight out of the baking dish whilst you ponder which dip is your favorite. (Ask me how I know.)I made it with grain-free flours, and I love the resulting nuttiness of the flavors, but you could easily adapt it to use any flour you like. Oh, and note that I've written this with quinoa from scratch just in case you don't happen to have any ready to go, but if you do, then just use about 1 1/2 to 2 cups of the quinoa.

According to a new report available on Radiant Insights, Inc.; the global smart helmet market is expected to witness a rapid growth over the forecast period (from 2017 to 2022). Helmet is a type of shielding gear that reduces possibilities of head injuries. This type of headgear can protect the human brain & skull from any accidental impact.
Access Full Report With TOC @ http://www.radiantinsights.com/research/global-smart-helmet-market-research-report-2017
Helmet designs vary according to their applications and functions. For instance, bicycle helmets shield against the blunt impact that can occur in case of head striking the ground. Headgears intended for rock climbing can provide protection against heavy impacts. Practicality and usability often influence the approach to helmet designs. For example, bicycle helmets have aerodynamic shape and they are well ventilated. Rock climbing helmets on the other hand, are small & lightweight for utmost ease during hiking.
Smart helmets enable direct interaction between computers and users. Currently, all that smart helmets can do is let the user interact with their Heads-Up Display (HUD). This display works with a system based on stacked instructions. HUD can be modified as per the requirements for the ease of usage. These helmets combine regular helmets with highly developed technologies. Smart helmets have a wide range of intellectual functions depending on their application areas. Smart helmets are yet in their developmental stage.
Rising research & development activities are anticipated to boost their availability during the years to come. Factors like high demand from various regions, introduction of innovative products, and advancements in smart technology are expected to augment the global smart helmet market till 2022. However, high prices associated with these smart headgears may hamper the overall expansion during the forecast period.

Officials lock down state pen, investigate guards
Contraband found in guards' possessions, officials say
State corrections officials are planning to launch an internal investigation Friday after they found guards with a variety of prohibited items inside the state penitentiary.
Investigators found cellphones, DVDs, electronics and more on corrections officers. Officials said they received a tip that some guards were sleeping and others were watching movies, prompting them to lock down the state penitentiary and find all of the contraband.
Officials said guards aren't allowed to have any of the electronics in their possession since they can't watch inmates if they're watching or listening to something else.
"What I basically received (Wednesday) was information that a guy like me doesn't want to hear, but we needed to hear and it allowed us an opportunity to police ourselves," said Corrections Secretary Gregg Marcantel.
The Corrections Department is investigating how the guards got everything inside.

Finish the job Hitler started!
I normally take reports from Haaretz with a large grain of salt, but I did get back-up sources on this story.
U.S. President Barack Obama has told several European leaders that if Israeli-Palestinian talks remain stalemated into September or October, he will convene an international summit on achieving Mideast peace, senior Israeli officials told Haaretz on Thursday.On May 12 Israel will be celebrating Jerusalem Day. Is this one to be the last in an undivided Jerusalem? I pray to G-d that the answer is no, for no Israeli Knesset member will vote for the re-partitioning of Jerusalem.
The officials said the conference would be run by the Quartet of Middle East peacemakers - the United States, European Union, United Nations and Russia - in a bid to forge a united global front for creating a Palestinian state. The summit, they said, would address such core issues as borders, security arrangements, Palestinian refugees and the status of Jerusalem.
Obama is determined to exert his influence to establish a Palestinian state, the officials said, and several European leaders have vowed that the EU would support any peace plan proposed by Washington. Therefore, though so-called proximity talks are set to start in the coming weeks, Obama is already readying for the possibility that the indirect Israeli-Palestinian talks might reach a dead end.
The U.S. proposal would likely be presented by the end of this year, the officials said.
On Saturday night, Arab League foreign ministers will convene to reiterate their support for Palestinian Authority President Mahmoud Abbas to begin the U.S.-mediated talks. The Arab bloc is expected to demand that the negotiations show progress within four months. September and October will thus be critical months in determining whether the talks have borne fruit.
The UN General Assembly will reconvene in late September, and that month will also mark one year since Obama hosted a largely unproductive trilateral summit with Abbas and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. In addition, September 26 marks the end of the 10-month period Israel allocated for a freeze on West Bank settlement construction, and Netanyahu will have to decide whether to allow such building to be resumed.
Israeli officials said they believe Obama could postpone the international summit, or the unveiling of his own peace plan, until after the midterm Congressional elections in November, in which his Democratic Party is widely expected to suffer heavy losses.
Meanwhile, Netanyahu has a full diplomatic schedule next week. On Monday, he will travel to Sharm al-Sheikh for talks with Egyptian President Hosni Mubarak on restarting the peace process. Mubarak will likely ask Netanyahu to make goodwill gestures toward the Palestinians to demonstrate the seriousness of his intentions to advance negotiations.
U.S. special envoy George Mitchell will return to the region later in the week to meet with Netanyahu and Abbas for discussions that may serve as the first round of proximity talks.
In advance of these talks, Interior Minister Eli Yishai instructed the Jerusalem Planning and Building Committee to inform him of any plan to authorize construction that the U.S. administration might deem diplomatically sensitive.
Abbas, for his part, will visit China on Friday, and in advance of this visit, he told the state-run news agency Xinhua that the Obama administration had promised him it would work to prevent any provocative Israeli moves during the negotiations.
"We want our state to be declared under an international agreement," Abbas told the agency while visiting the Jordanian capital of Amman Thursday. "If this could not happen, the Arabs will go to the UN Security Council to get recognition of Palestinian statehood."
So where would that leave Barack Hussein Obama and his band of anti-Semites (European Union, United Nations and Russia)?
Only one option: To impose by force their Final Solution to the Jewish Problem!
How many US Soldiers and Marines will have to die before the left cries enough? Or will they even care since their sons and daughters do not enlist in the military. It will be the sons and daughters of the Conservative and Christian families that will die upon the beaches, the towns, the cities, the fields of Israel.
And for what? To justify the Nobel Peace Prize the
I think the last one is the correct assumption.

Japan has executed three inmates convicted of murder in its first executions under the government that took office in December.
The Justice Ministry said the executions were carried out early Thursday at three locations. One of the condemned inmates killed a schoolgirl.
Japan's last execution was in September. It now has 134 inmates on death row. Executions in Japan are done by hanging.
Capital punishment in Japan has been widely criticized by human rights groups though polls show the public supports it. Japan's government releases few details about executions and inmates are generally not informed of their pending execution until immediately before it is carried out.

Connector covers are a type of protective cap designed to physically protect electrical connectors from damage when disconnected.
What are connector covers used for?
Connector covers are used to protect the pins of connectors that are exposed when having no cable attached. They protect connectors from dust and other contamination, as well as with new cables, equipment and other applications where a connector needs protection. Connector covers may be made from in either plastic or metal to help shield the connector from EMI (electromagnetic interference) issues. In addition, many styles of connector cover also come with an attached chain that can be secured to the chassis.
Types of connector covers
There are two main types of connector covers: press-fit and slide-on connector covers. Slide-on connector covers are typically used for military-standard connectors as they are durable and connect using an easy sliding mechanism. Press-on covers are used for fibre connectors as they protect against dust and foreign bodies.

Officials with the University of Maine at Presque Isle officially announced Tuesday that they have hired Paul Stone as Head Coach of their NCAA Nordic Ski Team.
Stone comes to UMPI from the University of Vermont, where he served as head Nordic Coach for the past four seasons, and where he was named NCAA Eastern Coach of the Year in 2009. He also has been the interim head coach of Colby College (2004-2005 season) and Williams College (2003-2004), prior to taking over the UVM program in 2006. He was also the head coach of southern Maine-based Coastal Nordic Ski Team for the 2005-2006 season. Stone has coached two NCAA Champions and placed skiers in the top 10 at Junior Olympics, NCAA Championships and U.S. National Championships.
"In Presque Isle we have early snow, a 10-minute drive to one of the world's top Nordic venues, a passionately supportive community, the Maine Winter Sports Center, exciting events like World Cup's and World Championships and a quality University that is the best value for student-athletes in NCAA skiing," said Chris Corsello, UMPI's Athletic Director. "Now in Paul, we believe we also have the person who can pull all these pieces together and establish our program."
"The University of Maine Presque Isle has so much going for it, I believe it is only a matter of time before the high school skiers in the East discover the opportunities here," Stone said. "The cost of the colleges that offer an NCAA ski team today puts skiing out of reach to many, but UMPI offers a great education, some of the top skiing facilities in the world and all at less than half the cost of most schools."
"We believe that, in time, University of Maine at Presque Isle skiers will compete against the best college skiers in the country and in Paul's years of coaching at the University of Vermont, Williams and Colby colleges, he has clearly shown that he is the person to take our program to that level," UMPI President Don Zillman said.
As a high school junior, Stone was one of the top skiers in the country, qualifying for the World Junior Championships in 1994. He went on to ski for Dartmouth, making their Carnival Team all four years. He won the Cooke Award his freshman year as the top first-year skier, was named MVP of the team in 1997 and was a three-time captain, qualifying to compete at NCAA Championships in 1995, 1996, 1997, and 1999.
Stone is on the executive committee of the Eastern Intercollegiate Ski Association (EISA), which is the eastern division of the NCAA for skiing. The division includes Bates, Bowdoin, Colby, Dartmouth, Harvard, Middlebury, St. Lawrence, St. Michael's, University of New Hampshire, University of Vermont, Williams and the University of Maine at Presque Isle.

Yosemite is an international destination with much to offer. Just south of the main gate to Yosemite, is the sleepy town called Fish Camp. It's a great place to stay when visiting the park because you avoid the hustle and bustle, the traffic, you still have cell phone coverage, and there are many activities to choose from. We tried and tested each of these "escapes" in just one day. They were affordable, kid-friendly and easy to access from anywhere in California.
Just a few miles past Oakhurst and Bass Lake, if you continue down the 41 Hwy, you will find the sleepy little town of Fish Camp. There is no doubt, the biggest resident is the spacious property of Tenaya Lodge http://www.tenayalodge.com. I always feel like I'm going home each time I stay there. The staff is very accommodating and there are so many daily activities throughout the year. There are so many activities and events, that you literally never have to leave the premises.
Start your day with a facial or massage at the newly opened, luxurious 10,000 square foot Ascent Day Spa, then skip to the breakfast buffet at Sierra Restaurant inside the hotel. The prices are reasonable and there are many food options to choose from, even for the pickiest of eaters.
Next, enjoy some of the activities on the premises like archery, sledding, snow shoes, cross country skiing, ice skating or even a sleigh ride. Or if it's during the Spring or Summer, you can mountain bike one of the many miles of tree-lined trails on the property.
In the afternoon, take a quick trip down the road (depending on the season) and jump on the Sugar Pine Railroad www.ymsprr.com. This unique experience will be a life long memory as you ride this exciting, four mile excursion deep in the heart of the Sierra National Forest. There are multiple options from Jenny railcars to the "Moonlight Special" that includes dinner. Tickets range from $8 to $48 depending on the package. The train operates daily from March to October and runs every half hour.
Then head back to happy hour at Jackalope's Bar & Grill inside the Tenaya Lodge where you will find a casual, comfy, cozy atmosphere and one of the best Long Island Iced Teas we ever had. Enjoy huge fireplaces, play board games, enjoy a cigar, or s'mores on the patio - slowly roasted over the big outdoor fire pits, as you relax and observe kids enthralled in a snowball battle.
Unwind from a long day of adventure at Embers – a fine dining restaurant inside the Tenaya Lodge that is open seasonally and changes their menu biweekly. One of our favorite things to order and enjoy is their Ceasar salad that is made at the table and the Bananas Diablo, the flaming dessert that is spectacular to observe as it's being created. Executive Chef Frederick Clabaugh and Executive Sous Chef Dwayne McFann open up the kitchen to do cooking classes and various private events - which is a real treat.
This beautiful area of California gives you all the views that you yearn for, the adventure and activities to keep you active, yet you are still in a resort setting with full service, upscale restaurants, a day spa and far from "roughing it" unless, of course, you want to. It's off the beaten path and well worth the trip.

upCommentBox is a plug-and-play utility and demo of the usage of the library upForm. The code is included with only a few lines of code allowing the client procedures to be called. This environment is also a demo in that it demonstrates how the functions and features of upForm can be used to create interesting and useful browser interfaces using the library. upCommentBox also saves the comments into a savefile.
Release Info:
Version 1.0 (Mar 24 08)
- Utility released
Version 1.1 (Mar 26 08)
- the authorized list is now updated via upCB_Authorized(), which should only be called in world/New() to add keys to the authorized list. Refer to to the usage instructions. (Gughunter)
In order to use this utility, you should allow players to use two main procs and one variable:
client/upCB_Submit() [proc]
- Call this when you want a player to submit a new comment
client/upCB_Manage() [proc]
- Call this when you want an administrator to be able to manage existing comments
upCB_authorized [var]
- Initialize this value at runtime to a list to determine what keys are authorized to manage comments. Values are stored in canonical form (therefore, the key "Unknown Person" in canonical form would be "unknownperson"). This value is essentially obtained by using client.ckey, or using ckey() to the key string
The easiest way to use library is to just define verbs for the submit and manage button, but only allow authorized keys to use the manage verb. Don't forget to initialize upCB_authorized, or nobody will be able to manage comments.

This is probably the last you'll hear from me. You see, I'm changing my name and skedaddling. Making a break for it, skipping the country, doing a Lord Lucan, call it what you will. And all I'm taking with me is a suitcase big enough for the Sonos Digital Sound System.
"A Fluffy? Best Home Entertainment Gadget 2005?" I snorted, ready to pour scorn on such bold claims. But oh, how wrong I was.
Sonos is a wireless music streaming system that can play digital music from your home computer on any one of up to 32 ZonePlayers dotted around your house. It can all be controlled by the optional wireless remote, or straight from your desktop via a software interface. Sounds simple doesn't it? That's because it is.
Now I'm not for one minute suggesting that this system is anything less than state of the art technology, but the way they put it together for you is simplicity itself.
The various components come beautifully packaged in separate boxes, adding something of a frisson to the whole setting-up procedure, and meticulously unwrapping each bit, I was suddenly aware that I might be in for something of an anti-climax. But again, I was wrong.
Sonos claim that this system can be set up "in minutes" - which provoked another derisory snort from me. Whenever I've tried to set anything up on on my network, be it a Wi-Fi security camera or a wireless print server, there's always been more than an occasional swear words uttered. My router, for instance has, all by itself, decided that the password I chose was nowhere near good enough, and has created its own. And not told me what it is.
So it was with some trepidation that I surveyed the Sonos system: unpacked, plugged in and laid out in all its glory. I had visions of madly resetting routers and fishing out manuals and Ethernet cables from wherever it is that the "Hide Anything Of Any Use In Bizarre And Forgettable Places Fairy" puts them when I'm not looking.
But, no - with the supplied cable plugged into my router it was just a case of installing the software and following the on-screen prompts. It took seconds. I sat there staring expectantly at my screen, waiting for the inevitable failure or error message, but all I got was a very polite invitation to tell the ZonePlayer where my music was. Once pointed to the correct folder, the desktop controller indexed the music, and it was done.
I had the complete set-up in the living room with another ZonePlayer wired up to a set of my own speakers in the kitchen.
Next came the wireless remote, where I fully expected to hit my first snag. Sure enough, as soon as it powered up, a warning appeared. But it was just telling me that the software needed to be updated and it promptly got on with it. The controller looks and behaves a bit like an oversized iPod, with a large colour screen and a click wheel. Buttons are limited to just a few essentials and the whole thing is really quite neat.
The moment of truth. I was ready to rock and roll. Or drum and bass, or hip and hop for that matter. I added a suitable selection of tracks to the playing queue and hit the button.
The sound was instantaneous and quite lovely. The speakers produced a warm and crisp sound without any immediate tweaking of the system's equalizer settings and I actually laughed out loud at the marvel of it all. I set about linking the two separate ZonePlayers together and within seconds the whole flat was filled with sound. I instantly wanted another one for the bedroom but in such a bijou residence perhaps that would've been overkill.
The novelty of having music wherever you are, without having the stereo in one room set to an ASBO-inducing level, was just fabulous - even my wife (an unrepentant technophobe) liked it. She loved the idea of us being able to listen to separate playlists in different rooms at the same time, although was slightly less enthusiastic when she realised that as "Master of the Remote" I would be in charge of what she would be listening too. And perhaps the optional wall-mountable charging cradle could be supplemented with a tasteful range of remote holsters? (If Sonos take up this suggestion, I want 20%.)
Some cynics have suggested that you can set up similar systems yourself using, for example, the Apple Airport system, with remote speakers in every room of the house. I agree, you could do that, but it would be nowhere near as elegant as the Sonos system. You also couldn't control it remotely from wherever you were.
And that really is the word for it - elegant.
The desktop software is straightforward to use and easy on the eye and I was glad to see that they hadn't tried to ape the iTunes style in any way - despite the obvious aiming of the overall design at the iPod generation. I must mention that this brought on at least one detractor. A house-guest pointed out that in a few years all these white and brushed metal housings might look a little dated and with such an expensive bit of kit this might be a consideration for some buyers. Perhaps a more classically-styled product would appeal to a wider audience. But in real terms, the only bits of this system you need to have on display are the speakers and the remote control. Everything else can be neatly tucked away.
You can link up to 32 Zone Players to the system, if your house and bank balance can accommodate it, and you can run more than one remote too (only don't tell the wife that bit). There's no delays, no distortion and you can adjust the individual zones' volumes levels as well as the entire group's. It plays, MP3s, Windows Media, AAC and Flac (lossless) files. You can even connect analogue sound sources to the ZonePlayers. Oh, and did I mention instant access to internet radio? It really is a joy to use.
The only minor grumble I had was that after a system shutdown (I tend to turn my laptop off when I'm not at home) the controller took a bit of time to re-establish connections between the PC and the Zone Players, and sometimes got a bit confused, but given a few minutes to sort itself out it always got back on track.
The remote froze once too, but a simple reset procedure cured that and there were no further troubles. Apart from the squabbling about who got the remote…
Yes, it's expensive - the set-up supplied for review would set you back a hefty £1,200.
Yes, it's extravagant - do you really need music piped all over your dwelling?
Yes, it might look a bit "Noughties" in a few years time - what won't?
But, yes - you will still want one.
So if those nice people from Sonos come looking for me, you ain't seen me, right?

Once upon a time, on the Left Bank of Boston, the owner of a popular indie designers market brought together two girls with a mutual, lifelong love affair for vintage and thrift shopping in order to host a clothing swap, and The Swapaholics were born.
Since that fabulously fateful day, Amy Chase from Punky Style and Melissa Massello from Shoestring Magazine have co-hosted hundreds of modern swap events around the country, each drawing between 25 and 500 people, and have inspired thousands more around the world. They love being able to empower women everywhere by sharing the joys of sharing versus owning through their in-person events, blog, press appearances, and their upcoming e-book, "Confessions of a Swapaholic".
After five years of swapping professionally, and more than a decade of hosting swaps for friends & family, The Swapaholics have become America's favorite swap hostesses and internationally recognized sustainable style experts.

Mexico was the site of major Amerinidian Civilizations before going under the Spanish rule for three centuries, and achieving independency in the beginnings of the 19th century. The Nation had gone through war untill the 1910 Mexican Revoulution led to the Institutional Revolutionary Party (PRI) regime, since 1922. In 1994 the country went through its worst economical disaster and has been recovering ever since; but real wages are low, with major segments of the population in underemployment. Amerinidian population is the most impoverished in the southern states. In July 2000, a new party (PAN) in government was elected, with Vicente Fox as president.

A waning moon: Dark Knight stumbles (but eventually rises)
The Dark Knight Rises leaves the fanciful early days of the superhero genre far behind and moves into a doom-shrouded, apocalyptic future that seems uncomfortably close to today's headlines. As urban terrorism and class warfare envelop Gotham, and its infrastructure is ripped apart, Bruce Wayne (Christian Bale) emerges reluctantly from years of seclusion in Wayne Manor and faces a soulless villain as powerful as he is. The film begins slowly with a murky plot and too many new characters, but builds to a sensational climax.
The result, in Christopher Nolan's conclusion to his Batman trilogy, is an ambitious superhero movie with two surprises: It isn't very much fun, and it doesn't have very much Batman. I'm thinking of the over-the-top action sequences of the earlier films that had a subcurrent of humor, and the exhilarating performance of Heath Ledger as the Joker. This movie is all serious drama, with a villain named Bane whose Hannibal Lecterish face-muzzle robs him of personality. And although we see a good deal of Bruce Wayne, his alter-ego Batman makes only a few brief appearances before the all-out climax.
Bane, played by Tom Hardy in a performance evoking a homicidal pro wrestler, is a mystery because it's hard to say what motivates him. He releases thousands of Gotham's criminals in a scenario resembling the storming of the Bastille. As they face off against most of the city police force in street warfare, Bane's goal seems to be the overthrow of the ruling classes. But this would prove little if his other plan (the nuclear annihilation of the city) succeeds. Full ReviewRead more on: Dark Knight Rises

Shades of Sandy
There is something about Yom Kippur that has an impact even on the world of sports.
When the owner of the New York Jets football team discovered that his team was scheduled to play against the Tennessee Titans on September 27 in a game set to start at 4:15 pm, he quickly made a calculation that Jewish fans would not have enough time to get home for the beginning of Yom Kippur that evening. It was bad enough that the home opener for his team was on the second day of Rosh Hashana. But to lose Jewish fans two games in a row was too much.
The situation recalled the heroic move made by Dodger pitcher Sandy Koufax who refused to pitch in a World Series game on Yom Kippur 44 years ago. This time the problem was solved by getting NFL commissioner Roger Goodell to reschedule the Erev Yom Kippur game to 1:00 pm so that fans could arrive home before sundown, undoubtedly emotionally prepared for the big day of soul searching and repentance.

Part of the problem is there is so much transparency in this age of the steroid-ification of information. Add to that the sheer volume of information the average soul is bombarded with, and it is easy to see why things get turned around.
Take the notion of what is natural. I have probably beaten this horse to death. But every time I talk to another person, I get from them their sense of how they perceive natural. At this point I am thoroughly confused. I talk to a baker and he tells me he uses 100% organically farmed wheat. But I discover the wheat has been genetically modified.
I talk to a winegrower and he tells me he is using 100% indigenous yeasts, but that they keep the "formula" in a safe deposit box in Switzerland.
Do you go out to eat? If you do, you have already been subjected to GMO crops at least once in your life.
When I get too much of this I go to my inner Calabria. In the hills above Cosenza there is a place I go to reconnect with what is wild and real to me. The wine isn't always great, but it's real. The place isn't always easy to arrive at, but it is imprinted upon my soul. I'm not even sure it exists where I first found it,. But it is stored in the heart now and that is a place that cannot be violated unless memory fails.
In all of Italy, Calabria is my starting point. Yes I am crazy about Sicily and Piedmont and Tuscany. Those are now easy places for me. Calabria is a challenge, like going to Nepal or Africa. Because Calabria represents to me where the wild things are that haven't been reduced to a formula or a brand.
"But, sir, you are over romanticizing Calabria. It is wild. And savage. And cruel. And unfair." So goes the inner voice. And yes, I know. I know. But where, really, in the world is anything balanced? In Washington? In La Jolla? In New York? In Beaune? This is a little tiny planet streaming at breakneck speed in the pack of the Milky Way with our nearest galaxy heading at us at some unbelievable speed. We are ultimately heading towards transformation. There is no single point at which any of us can arrive and hope to stay. And likewise with wine. The nature of wine is this. Always moving towards the next transformative moment. Two bottles opened recently from the same box. Old Hermitage from 1985. Both bottles slightly different. Both arrived and slept together in the same room for almost 20 years. Same corks, same bottles, But both of them had their unique stamp. Not terribly different. But different nonetheless.
So when we search for the wild things or the real things or the things that we think will make our lives more happy or complete…to know that it is at best an exercise comparable to trying to catch light which is moving at 3 million meters per second while we hurdle towards Andromeda at about 568,000mph. Something to think about but really impossible to hold on to.
What can't be faked? Simple. Find your wine. Open it. Among friends or family. Savor it. Enjoy it. Soak it all in. Repeat as needed.

I'll be at the David Horowitz Freedom Center West Coast Retreat in Palos Verdes this weekend. They call it a retreat, but I think of it as group therapy. The retreat features an unbelievable lineup of speakers including Senators Jeff Sessions and Ron Johnson, Rep. Michele Bachmann, Victor Davis Hanson, Andy McCarthy, Bill Whittle, Bill Voegeli and Ben Stein, among others.
The retreat kicks off with dinner on Friday and continues through early Sunday afternoon. I'll be speaking on a panel with David Horowitz and Ralph Reed addressing where we go from here. I would love to find a few friendly Power Line readers in the audience at the retreat. Please think about joining us if you can.

NORWICH � Two of the three Norwich mayoral candidates have voted in every municipal election since 2003, including Libertarian Bill Russell.
However, none of the rest of the members of �Team Russell� � the name Russell gave Libertarians running for City Council � have voted in the last five odd-year municipal elections.
Of the five Libertarians running for the council, Chandler Alfred Jr. first registered to vote in the city in 2011, Cyndia Louise Shook first registered in 2012, Michael Holman registered in June and Alex Rodriguez in August. Julie Anne Gorham, first registered in 2004, voted in 2006, 2008, 2010 and 2012.
�What happened there is when I approached them, they were really apathetic, but when I explained what I wanted to do, they were ready to jump in and help out,� Russell said of his fellow candidates. �I�m banking on people realizing there is someone who is an outsider and doesn�t have experience raising taxes or spending money that�s not ours.�
Of the mayoral candidates, Democrat Deb Hinchey and Russell have voted in all five municipal elections since 2003. Nystrom is 4-for-5, failing to cast a vote in 2005, according to city records. Nystrom and Hinchey have remained in the same political party. Russell, meanwhile, switched parties from Libertarian to Republican in 2007. Russell, who registered as a Libertarian in 1995, said he joined the GOP to vote for former U.S. Rep. Ron Paul, R-Texas, in the 2008 and 2012 presidential primaries. He switched back to the Libertarians in 2012 and voted for former New Mexico Gov. Gary Johnson as president.
�If someone is running for mayor and they�ve missed three or four (elections), I would think it�s of concern. That�s certainly relevant,� said city resident Samuel Browning. But the voting records of those on this year�s ballot did not bother him, he said.
�People may miss an election for one reason or another,� he said.
On the 13 candidates running for City Council, only two � Democrats Mark Bettencourt, an incumbent, and Bill Eyberse � have cast a vote in every municipal election in the past decade, according to information provided to The Bulletin by the city�s registrars of voters following a request by the newspaper about local political participation.
�You�d have to go back at least 20 years to find me even missing a primary,� Bettencourt said. �This is not a political thing for me to get extra credit with voters. I really believe it is the most basic of civic duties, and the minimum that a citizen should do.�
Each of the four Republicans in the City Council race have missed at least one municipal election since 2003 � including incumbent alderwoman Sofee Noblick, who did not vote in 2005 or 2007, according to city records.
Republican Bill Nash, who registered with the party in October 1991, didn�t vote in 2003 and 2005, but voted in 2007 � when he was elected to the council � and in 2009 and 2011. He chose not to run for re-election in 2011.
Nash said in 2003, he was out of the state for a month but did not remember exactly when.
As for 2005, �I don�t know why I didn�t vote,� Nash said. �I try to vote as much as I can when the chances allow. I don�t think I�ve ever missed a presidential election.�
Incumbent Republican mayor Peter Nystrom, who joined the party 11 days after his 18th birthday on Feb. 24, 1975, echoed Bettencourt�s comments about his participation in local elections.
�Voting is something people fought and died for in this country at times. I do it as a matter of life. If it�s Election Day, you vote,� Nystrom said. �I never questioned it and have certainly tried to make it part of my regular routine.�
Of the eight Board of Education candidates, four � Republicans Aaron Daniels and Lynn Norris, and Democrats Joyce Werden, John Levangie and Cora Lee Boulware � have perfect voting records. Republican Dennis Slopak and Republican Robert Aldi have missed one, and Democrat Jesshua Ballaro missed in 2003 and 2005.

Are your hands just a mess right now with the cold weather & dryness? UGH! My hands are just a mess. I feel like I am constantly washing them. I am sure that is adding to the nightmare that is in the form of cracks in the skin along my thumbs. OUCH! I try to remember to lotion up, but I literally wash my hands so much I am not sure that it helps. Not only do we have gluten in the house, with my making sandwiches out of Whole Wheat bread for my daughter, but I baby-sit a little girl and after changing her diaper or wiping her nose, etc, I am washing my hands. I am currently using Curel Targeted Therapy Hand & Cuticle Cream. It works well, when I remember to use it or don't wash it right off. For more targeted treatment on the cracks, I have been using Aquaphor or Bacitracin and then covering with a band aid overnight.
Anyone else have this issue? What do you use for hand care? All the products I use on my hands are gluten-free. I know that gluten can't be absorbed through the skin and isn't an issue unless you have Dermatitis Herpetiformis, but if I eat with my hands, that could be a problem.

There is a class of chemicals that can disrupt the human hormonal system, and particularly effect the fetal development of males. These chemicals are in many everyday consumer products, and also used widely in agriculture and industry. In some heavily polluted US waterways, frogs & salamanders have sprouted extra legs, alligators have stunted genitals, and male Smallmouth bass have been discovered producing eggs.
In a June 27th, 2009 article about endocrine disruptors in the New York Times, columnist Nicholas Kristof writes that "scientists are connecting the dots with evidence of increasing abnormalities among humans, particularly large increases in numbers of genital deformities among newborn boys. For example, up to 7 percent of boys are now born with undescended testicles, although this often self-corrects over time. And up to 1 percent of boys in the United States are now born with hypospadias, in which the urethra exits the penis improperly, such as at the base rather than the tip."
According to an Environmental Working Group article: "The Environmental Protection Agency states that all parabens -- methyl, propyl, butyl -- have been proved to interfere with the function of the endocrine system, and these endocrine disruptors are stored in our body's fatty tissues". Parabens are very commonly used preservatives in skin care products that can be easily absorbed into the body. Similarly phthalates - which are added to shampoos, lotions, and other personal care products as stabilizers, lubricants, and emulsifying agents - have also been linked to problems with reproductive development in humans.
This really should highlight the fact that we need to look out for ourselves and read the ingredient labels of the consumer products we use. While perhaps more expensive, there are natural, non-harmful alternatives to the parabens, phthalates, PEG's and other harmful ingredients that sneak their way into the every day products we use. We absorb them into our bodies, and as mothers, we pass them to our developing children. Don't assume that a brand claiming to be natural will not use some parabens to inexpensively preserve a product — check the label.

Birth of a planet
September 3, 2012
Collaborating with Greg Abrams of Texas Advanced Computing Center (TACC), Sally Dodson-Robinson and her team of researches at the University of Texas at Austin have developed advanced simulations to visualize how planets are formed over a timescale of millions of years.
They are modeling and simulating prototypical disks, and comparing the results to the Earth and the planets of our own solar system. The considerable computation involved was facilitated by the Ranger supercomputer at TACC.
Over the past few decades, the hunt for extrasolar planets — planets outside our own solar system — has yielded incredible discoveries. And now planetary researchers have a new tool: simulated models of how planets are born.
The leftover gas and dust form a disk around the star, and the particulates inside the disk begin to collide and coalesce over millions of years, forming larger and larger objects, until a planet eventually takes shape.
