Karen G., from Forest, VA

I purchased 2 pair of these. One pair was the black fabric, the other white leather. They have a totally different fit. The fabric ones felt a half size small with my big toe at the end of the shoe. The leather ones are loose enough to feel like I need to wear socks, even though they are made to not wear socks. Both pair are still quite comfortable! I'm sure I will be purchasing more in the future. Although, I wish the smaller sizes came in more of the fashion colors.

Kelly, from Anna, TX

I first saw another woman on an airplane wearing these and they were super cute and looked comfy. I've since bought 2 of these in grey and navy blue and will be buying another in all black for work. As a wedding photographer, I'm on my feet running like crazy for hours. These shoes are super lightweight, super comfy and quiet when running around during the ceremony. I can't say enough good things about them. I'm also planning to buy a pair for my mom and mother in law for xmas. I now wear these all the time!!

Linda D., 61, the new 41, I hope., from North Plainfield, NJ

Having a large and wide foot (11W), so it is difficult to find shoes that fit well and do not look like I am wearing the shoebox. This style is fine for me. I purchased two pairs separately. The first one fits fine but I can always use a little extra toe room. The second pair which I believe are the same size and width are a bit wider so I am happy about that. They are great knockaround shoes and still appropriate for casual events, shopping, etc.

Christine from Cleveland, OH - USA

I am not nor have I ever been a card carrying member of the women's club "Got to Go Shopping for Shoes." Shoe Shopping is not one of my favorite things to do. Saying that to say they are giving me strong reasons to reconsider. I am a walker, and they are comfy all day long. The style is essentially the same but the colors/patterns are exciting and fun. I would love to have a pair in almost all of the patterns/colors they offer. BTW, I am still waiting for word that "Wavelength" in my size is available. Sadly, the shoes are a bit expensive if you do not catch them on sale. They are not supportive, and if you need a shoe that protects your toes, these are not the shoes to purchase. Arch support is good. Stones get caught between the grippers on the soles of the shoes. Skech without the grippers would be a nice variation of the shoe. They are not waterproof but dry quickly.

D.B, from Clinton Township, MI

I got the gray in 7 wide. Normally I wear a 6-1/2 wide but it was sold out. The 7 wide is a tad too big when barefoot but with an extra insole added they fit perfectly. Also, they fit good when I wear socks. Overall I would say these shoes are super comfy, but I wouldn't call them my best walking shoes because they don't have the good support that I need especially in the arch. I say these shoes are great for run-around town doing my chores and going out in the yard. Possibly buy another pair like these in leather.

Julie S, from Friendswood, TX

This is actually the 2nd pair I bought within just a few weeks of each other because I knew I would constantly wear them and needed a few colors. I originally bought them because I wanted just a casual slip on that provided me some cushion instead of just a flat shoe. I immediately found that these were super comfortable and made my feet feel great. The lightweight feeling is excellent and I can walk longer without having any kind of foot pain. I have recommended this shoe to everyone I know and I will definitely look into buying a few more!

RELEASE DATE:  July 26, 2002

PA NUMBER: PAR-02-140 (This PAR has been reissued, see PAR-05-160)

EXPIRATION DATE:  July 31, 2005

National Institute of Neurological Disorders and Stroke (NINDS)

o Purpose of the PA
o Research Objectives
o Mechanism of Support
o Eligible Institutions
o Individuals Eligible to Become Principal Investigators (PIs)
o Special Requirements
o Where to Send Inquiries
o Submitting an Application

Recent discoveries across a broad range of research areas in the neurosciences
offer promising opportunities for improved therapies for neurological disorders.
As part of its mission to reduce the burden of neurological disease, NINDS is
committed to encouraging the "translation" of these basic discoveries into new
treatments.  The goal of this PA is to announce a career development opportunity
for new investigators to build a program of translational research in
neurological disorders under the guidance of an experienced mentor.

This PA is one of three coordinated programs being released by NINDS to promote
translational research, including "NINDS Exploratory/Developmental Projects in
Translational Research"
(, and "NINDS Cooperative
Program in Translational Research"

The research project for this award must specifically be in the area of
translational research.  For the purposes of this program translational research
is defined as the process of applying new ideas, insights, and discoveries
generated through basic scientific inquiry to the treatment or prevention of
human disease.  Projects will typically include either a disease-relevant assay,
or candidate therapeutics that have a significant effect in a disease model.

The career development and training experience must focus on translational
research.  This should include the principles of therapeutics, candidate
screening and evaluation, assay validation, the development and use of animal
models of neurological disorders, toxicology and safety testing, biostatistics,
the preparation of Investigational New Drug (IND) or Investigational Device
Exemptions (IDE) applications, and interactions with private sector companies
involved with the manufacture and marketing of therapeutic drugs or devices.
Although all of these elements will not normally be included in the research
project, experience and training in these areas should be built into the career
development plan.

The rapid translation of basic neuroscience research findings into improvements
in clinical neurology and neurosurgery practice and outcomes remains an
important part of improving the quality, efficiency, effectiveness, and cost-
effectiveness of health care.  Significant hurdles exist, however, to
implementing this goal.  There is broad agreement among researchers and health
care providers about the urgent need to accelerate the application of evidence-
based findings and tools in clinical practice.  The overall objective of this
program is to attract and encourage investigators at the postdoctoral or early
faculty development stage to focus their efforts on translational research in
neurological disorders.  This program is intended to promote more extensive
interaction among basic and clinical researchers, and to accelerate the
development of interventions and effective treatments that will improve the
quality of life of persons with neurological disorders.

This PA will use the NIH Research Scientist Development Award – Research &
Training (K01) mechanism.  Applicants will be solely responsible for planning,
directing, and executing the proposed project.  These awards are intended to
support a period of intensive supervised career development experiences in the
development of treatments for neurological disease.  Candidates for the K01
award normally will have some postdoctoral research experience at the time of
application.  The candidate must be able to demonstrate the need for 3-5 years
of additional supervised research, and the potential for a highly productive
independent career.  K01 Awards are not renewable.

You may submit an application if your institution has any of the following

o For-profit or non-profit organizations
o Public or private institutions, such as universities, colleges, hospitals, and
o Units of State and local governments
o Domestic

Any individual with the skills, knowledge, and resources necessary to carry out
the proposed research is invited to work with their institution to develop an
application for support.  Individuals from underrepresented racial and ethnic
groups as well as individuals with disabilities are always encouraged to apply
for NIH programs.  Candidates for NINDS K01 awards must have a Ph.D. or
equivalent research-intensive degree (e.g., Pharm.D.) and must have demonstrated
the potential for highly productive independent research in the period after the
doctorate.  The candidate must identify a mentor(s) with extensive basic and/or
clinical research experience.  Candidates must be willing to spend a minimum of
75 percent of full-time professional effort conducting research and research
career development during the entire award period.  The candidate must clearly
describe the need for intensive research supervision for a period lasting 3-5
years leading to research independence.  Current or past principal investigators
on NINDS/NIH research grants are not eligible for this award (the only
exceptions are the R03 and R21 awards).

Candidates must be U.S. citizens or non-citizen nationals, or must have been
lawfully admitted for permanent residence by the time of award.  Individuals
admitted for permanent residence must be able to produce documentation of their
immigration status such as an Alien Registration Receipt Card (I-551) or some
other verification of legal admission as a permanent resident.  Non-citizen
nationals, although not U.S. citizens, owe permanent allegiance to the U.S.
They are usually born in lands that are not states but are under U.S.
sovereignty, jurisdiction, or administration.  Individuals on temporary or
student visas are not eligible for this award.

A. Environment: The institution must have well-established research and career
development programs and qualified faculty in basic and/or clinical research to
serve as mentors.  It is particularly desirable that the institutional setting
be conducive to translational research and therapy development.  The institution
must be able to demonstrate a commitment to research and to the continuing
development of the candidate as an independent scientist.  Institutions with
outstanding basic and clinical neurology researchers who can serve as mentors
are particularly encouraged to take advantage of these career awards to train
the next generation of translational neurological sciences researchers.

B. Program: The award provides up to 5 years of salary and research support.  At
least 75 percent of the recipient"s full-time professional effort must be
devoted to the goals of this award.  The remainder may be devoted to other
scholarly activities and research pursuits consistent with the objectives of the
award.  In particular, candidates for the K01 award must be able to devote
substantial time and effort to achieve the objectives of the career development

C. Mentor(s): Candidates must name a primary mentor who together with the
applicant is responsible for the planning, direction, and execution of the
program.  The mentor should be recognized as an accomplished investigator in the
area of therapy development and have a track record of success in training
independent investigators.  The mentor should have sufficient independent
research support to cover the costs of the proposed research project in excess
of the allowable research costs of this award.  Because of the scope of this
program, candidates may wish to nominate co-mentors that can provide particular
expertise which will augment and balance the research strengths of the primary
mentor.  NINDS strongly encourages outstanding research scientists with
significant basic-clinical (i.e., translational) neurological sciences research
experience to serve as mentors or co-mentors.

D. Allowable Costs:

1. Salary: The NINDS will provide salary of up to $85,000 plus fringe benefits
for the career award recipient.  The total salary requested is normally based on
a full-time, 12-month staff appointment.  It must be consistent both with the
established salary structure at the institution and with salaries actually
provided by the institution from its own funds to other staff members of
equivalent qualifications, rank, and responsibilities in the department
concerned.  If full-time, 12-month salaries are not currently paid to comparable
staff members, the salary proposed must be appropriately related to the existing
salary structure.

The institution may supplement the NIH salary contribution up to a level that is
consistent with the institution"s salary scale, however, supplementation may not
be from federal funds unless specifically authorized by the federal program from
which such funds are derived.  Because the salary amount provided by this award
is based on the full-time institutional salary, no other NIH funds may be used
for salary supplementation.  Institutional supplementation of salary must not
require extra duties or responsibilities that would interfere with the purpose
of the K01.  Under NIH grants policy, however, institutions may rebudget funds
within the total costs awarded to cover salaries consistent with the
institution"s salary scale up to the current legislated maximum salary.

2. Research Development Support: In addition to salary, NINDS will provide up to
$50,000 in research development support.  These funds may be used for the
following expenses: (a) tuition, fees, and books related to career development,
(b) research expenses, such as supplies, equipment and technical personnel, (c)
travel to research meetings or training, (d) statistical and computational
services including personnel and computer time.  All expenses must be directly
related to the proposed research career development program.

3. Ancillary Personnel Support: Salary for mentors, secretarial and
administrative assistance, etc., is not allowed.

4. Facilities and Administrative Costs:  These costs will be reimbursed at 8
percent of modified total direct costs.

E. Evaluation:  In carrying out its stewardship of human resource related
programs, the NIH may begin requesting information essential to an assessment of
the effectiveness of this program.  Accordingly, recipients are hereby notified
that they may be contacted after the completion of this award for periodic
updates on various aspects of their employment history, publications, support
from research grants or contracts, honors and awards, professional activities,
and other information helpful in evaluating the impact of the program.

F. Other Income: Fees resulting from professional consultation, or other
comparable activities required by the research and research-related activities
of this award may not be retained by the career award recipient.  Such fees must
be assigned to the grantee institution for disposition by any of the following

o The funds may be expended by the grantee institution in accordance with the
NIH policy on supplementation of career award salaries and to provide fringe
benefits in proportion to such supplementation.  Such salary supplementation and
fringe benefit payments must be within the established policies of the grantee

o The funds may be used for health-related research purposes.

o The funds may be paid to miscellaneous receipts of the U.S. Treasury.  Checks
should be made payable to the Department of Health and Human Services, NIH, and
forwarded to the Director, Office of Financial Management, NIH, Bethesda,
Maryland 20892.  Checks must identify the relevant award account and reason for
the payment.

o Awardees may retain royalties and fees for activities such as scholarly
writing, service on advisory groups, or honoraria from other institutions for
lectures or seminars, provided these activities remain incidental and provided
that the retention of such pay is consistent with the policies and practices of
the grantee institution.

Usually, funds budgeted in an NINDS/NIH supported research or research training
grant for the salaries or fringe benefits of individuals, but freed as a result
of a career award, may not be rebudgeted.  NINDS will give consideration to
approval for the use of released funds only under unusual circumstances.  Any
proposed retention of funds released as a result of a career award must receive
prior written approval of NINDS.

G. Special Leave: Leave to another institution, including a foreign laboratory,
may be permitted if the proposed experience is directly related to the purpose
of the award.  Only local, institutional approval is required if such leave does
not exceed 3 months.  For longer periods, prior written approval of NINDS is
required.  To obtain prior approval, the award recipient must submit a letter to
NINDS describing the plan, countersigned by the department head and the
appropriate institutional official.  A copy of a letter or other evidence from
the institution where the leave is to be taken must be submitted to assure that
satisfactory arrangements have been made.  Support from the career award will
continue during such leave.

Leave without award support may not exceed 12 months.  Such leave requires the
prior written approval of NINDS and will be granted only in unusual situations.
Support from other sources is permissible during the period of leave.  Such
leave does not reduce the total number of months of program support for which an
individual is eligible.

Under unusual and pressing circumstances, an awardee may submit a written
request to the awarding component requesting a reduction in professional effort
below 75 percent.  Such requests will be considered on a case-by-case basis
during the award period.  In no case, will it be permissible to work at a rate
of less than 50 percent effort.  The nature of the circumstances requiring
reduced effort might include medical conditions, disability, or pressing
personal or family situations such as child or elder care.  Permission to reduce
the level of effort will not be approved to accommodate other sources of
funding, job opportunities, clinical practice, or clinical training.  In each
situation, the grantee institution must submit documentation supporting the need
for reduced effort along with assurance of a continuing commitment to the
scientific development of the awardee.  Further, the awardee must submit
assurance of an intention to return to full-time professional effort (at least
75 percent) as soon as possible.  During the period of reduced effort, the
salary and other costs supported by the award will be reduced accordingly.

H. Termination or Change of Institution:  When a grantee institution plans to
terminate an award, NINDS must be notified in writing at the earliest possible
time so that appropriate instructions can be given for termination.

Awardees planning a change of institution, must submit to NINDS, in advance of
the change, a written request for transfer, countersigned by the appropriate
institutional business official, describing the reasons for the change and
including the new sponsor"s name and biosketch.  The awardee must establish in
this request that the specific aims of the research program to be conducted at
the new institution are within the scope of the original peer reviewed research
program.  Additionally, the new mentor must have the appropriate research
expertise to supervise the program and sufficient research support to ensure
continuation of the research program to the end of the award.  NINDS program
staff will review this request and determine if it will require peer review
and/or review by the NINDS Advisory Council.  A new career award application
must be submitted by the new institution far enough in advance of the requested
effective date to permit review.  The period of support requested in the new
application must be no more than the time remaining within the existing award

When a mentor at the grantee institution is to be replaced, the institution must
submit a letter from the proposed mentor documenting the need for substitution,
the new mentor"s qualifications for supervising the program, and the level of
support for the candidate"s career development.  The letter must also document
that the specific aims of the research program will remain within the scope of
the original peer reviewed research program.  NINDS staff will evaluate the
request, and will notify the grantee institution of the results of the

A final progress report, invention statement, and Financial Status Report are
required upon either conclusion of an award or relinquishment of an award in a
change of institution situation.

o Scientific merit of the proposed project and Career Development potential of
the applicant, as determined by peer review
o Availability of funds
o Relevance to program priorities

involving Phase I and II clinical trials must include provisions for assessment
of patient eligibility and status, rigorous data management, quality assurance,
and auditing procedures.  In addition, it is NIH policy that all clinical trials
require data and safety monitoring, with the method and degree of monitoring
being commensurate with the risks (NIH Policy for Data Safety and Monitoring,
NIH Guide for Grants and Contracts, June 12, 1998:

NIH that women and members of minority groups and their sub-populations must be
included in all NIH-supported clinical research projects unless a clear and
compelling justification is provided indicating that inclusion is inappropriate
with respect to the health of the subjects or the purpose of the research.  This
policy results from the NIH Revitalization Act of 1993 (Section 492B of Public
Law 103-43).

All investigators proposing clinical research should read the AMENDMENT "NIH
Guidelines for Inclusion of Women and Minorities as Subjects in Clinical
Research - Amended, October, 2001," published in the NIH Guide for Grants and
Contracts on October 9, 2001
(, a complete
copy of the updated Guidelines are available at
The amended policy incorporates: the use of an NIH definition of clinical
research, updated racial and ethnic categories in compliance with the new OMB
standards, clarification of language governing NIH-defined Phase III clinical
trials consistent with the new PHS Form 398, and updated roles and
responsibilities of NIH staff and the extramural community.  The policy
continues to require for all NIH-defined Phase III clinical trials that: a) all
applications or proposals and/or protocols must provide a description of plans

October 9, 2010

by Kristen Parker

With over 20,000 online viewers and 12,500 onsite attendees, the Valdosta vs Lowndes game proved to be a great rivalry matchup. It was also the 150th anniversary of Valdosta.

Lowndes has dominated this rivalry series by winning the previous six games. The entered the game with one loss for the season while Valdosta and their new coach, Rance Gillespie, came in undefeated.

Lowndes received the ball and scored within the first three minutes. Valdosta answered quickly with their own touchdown, tying the score at 7-7 with 5 minutes left in the 1st quarter.

The game continued to be a defensive struggle in the 2nd quarter, with Valdosta holding Lowndes to a fourth-down conversion rather than a touchdown. With 53 seconds left in the first half, Valdosta moved the ball 65 yards in two passing plays to score and head into the locker room with a 14-7.

The Vikings kept the score close as the second half began, running the ball in for a TD and tying the game once again with a score of 14-14, then going ahead with another touchdown. Lowndes kicked a field goal and with three minutes left in game, stretching their to 24-14. Valdosta shortened the Lowndes lead to 7 with only a minute to go, but Lowndes would come out ahead for the seventh straight time winning by a score of 24-17.

Granola bars are a great on-the-go snack option for busy people, athletes, and lovers of the outdoors. The word granola may conjure up thoughts of healthy oats, grains, and nuts all nicely molded into an easy to eat bar. But snackers beware— what lies behind the wrappers of these seemingly innocent bars may be an over-processed nutritional mess.

Granola Decoded — The-Need-to-Know

While brands like Quaker Oats and Nature Valley may be the kings of the granola bar aisle, they typically rank low in the hierarchy of good nutrition. Containing as many as 25 ingredients, 12 grams of sugar, and sugar-filled ingredients like a chocolate sheath, these babies can be almost as bad as eating a real candy bar (a Twix Bar contains around the same amount of calories and sugar as an average granola bar).

Similar to candy or cookies, many of the bars contain high fructose corn syrup, which has been linked to weight gain and insulin resistance Fructose, weight gain, and the insulin resistance syndrome Elliott, S.S., Keim, N.L., Stern, J.S., et al.

Grains and Nuts and Fruits, Oh My! — Your Action Plan

The number of granola bars on the market has exploded over the past few years, and with the focus shifting to healthier ingredients, it’s easier than ever to choose a healthy— or at least healthier— option.

Reading the nutritional information is key to making the best choices, and the more recognizable the ingredients, the better. Many granola bars are fortified with vitamins and minerals, and while fortification is not a replacement for eating a well-balanced diet, it can help to make up for lacking nutrients Discretionary food fortification: implications of consumer attitudes Kalergis, M., MacDonald, A. Dairy Farmers of Canada, Montreal, QC, Canada. Canadian Journal of Dietary Practice and Research. 2009 Winter;70(4):e26-31. Can multi-micronutrient food fortification improve the micronutrient status, growth, health, and cognition of schoolchildren? A systematic review Best, C., Neufingerl, N., Del Rosso, JM., United Nations World Food Programme, Programme Design and Support Service, Rome, Italy. Nutrition Review. 2011 Apr;69(4):186-204. . Look for bars that are high in fiber (containing at least 5 of the 14 recommended grams per day), which can prolong that full feeling and possibly reduce “bad” LDL cholesterol Whole-grain ready-to-eat oat cereal, as part of a dietary program for weight loss, reduces low-density lipoprotein cholesterol in adults with overweight and obesity more than a dietary program including low-fiber control foods Maki, K.C., Beiseigel, JM., Jonnalagadda, SS., et al. Provident Clinical Research, Glen Ellyn, IL. Journal if the American Dietetic Association. 2010 Feb;110(2):205-14. , and options with less than 25% of the calories from sugar and 3 grams of fat or less.

While many pre-packaged granola bars can be nutritional land mines, choosing a simple granola bar packed with nutrients and fiber will be more satisfying than a bar loaded with fat and sugar. Ingredient lists full of easily identifiable choices— like oats, grains, fruits, and nuts— is a good sign. And make sure whole grains— not sugar— are the first ingredients listed. Calories should come in at 100-175 per serving (which for many bars is around 30-40 grams— about the size of two 9-volt batteries). When a bar has quality ingredients, it should easily pass the label test. And for the best hand-picked ingredients, homemade granola bars are an easy, cost effective way to go.

Sam Weber Demo

Illustrator Sam Weber has become a household fixture in the industry in just six short years. Looking at Sam's work today, you would scarcely believe he spent the first couple of years of his career with relatively little work on the table, which makes his rise to success even more impressive.

Sam earned a BFA in Calgary, Canada where he met his wife artist Jillian Tamaki and continued on to earn an MFA at the School of Visual Arts in New Your City. He credits his time there with instilling within him a more independent attitude toward art. It also shattered some of his illusions about famous illustrators saying that living in New York rids you of being star struck pretty quickly.

A few weeks ago, I had the opportunity to meet Sam and see him work during his visit to Brigham Young University where I teach. He shared many words of wisdom with those in attendance as well as a  wonderful demonstration of his working process.

Sam Begins by sketching out his ideas and then gathers reference material from a variety of sources. He stressed the importance of creating your own reference in order to control your vision. He frequently brings professional models into his Brooklyn, New York studio to shoot, ensuring that he gets exactly the pose and details he wants. Once the drawing is established, he uses a graphite transfer method to get the drawing onto his painting surface.

Weber prefers painting on Fabriano 300 lb. hot press paper. He likes the smooth surface and ability to remain relatively flat even during successive washes of wet paint without stretching. Because Weber's work frequently requires large areas of white or nearly white paper, he masks off these areas using a high tack frisket film. Sam likes to build up areas of color and value slowly using multiple washes of very thin acrylic in a watercolor style. His paint of choice is Golden Fluid acrylic paint since it requires less dilution to it reduce to the consistency he likes.

When building up value and texture, Sam employs many different tools to achieve organic results.He has a collection of natural sponges that he uses and also likes to press a sheet of Plexiglass into a wet wash to get random textures. Weber continues glazing wet into wet and building up values that retain soft edges and textures.As he gets more layers built up, the paint becomes dryer and he scumbles the paint more.

Throughout the demo, Sam threw out advice and hard gained wisdom to the group He said the sketching process is his favorite part because that is when all the potential still exists. The excitement swells and then sinks to uncertainty in the middle and then settles into relief at the finish when it all works out. Weber advocates setting aside time for personal work as the most interesting leaps and growth come from exploration.

After a little more than two hours of building up the acrylic washes, Sam then shifted to Photoshop for the finishing touches which is how he finishes nearly all his work. He scanned the image full size at 700 dpi. Using multiply layers, he continues with digital glazes of color to refine the value patterns and sharpen edges. Color dodge was used to achieve highlights toward the end. This was a fairly simple subject, so there were not a lot of tricky digital effects, but Sam will employ various selections and quick masks in order to get the effects he wants.

Of the first couple of dry years, Sam said that it was only when he shifted his subject matter to be more accessible that he became popular. He likened it to two slightly overlapping circles. In one is the work you like to do. The other contains what people want. Within the space that overlaps lies the work that you should pursue. Weber advised students to create an entirely new portfolio every six months stressing that illustration is not a part time job and that you may never feel ready to begin an illustration career- this is normal. Proceed as planned. It appears to me that Sam Weber is proceeding very nicely.

Kayleen West - Children's Writer & Illustrator said...

Great post Greg. It was very informative and interesting to read. Are you able to elaborate on how he uses quick masks exactly please?

Greg Newbold said...

He basically makes a selection using quick mask and then saves that selection (naming it in "save selection" under select tab). He can then go back and forth from the selection and only paint within that selected area without having to re-select it. You can also select the inverse of that selection and paint the opposite edge without re-selecting as well. I'm still learning things, but this was a nice addition to my knowledge of Photoshop.

Greg Newbold said...

Wow- a lot of selecting going on in that comment...

The Art of Kim Kincaid said...

Thank you for posting this Greg. Very informative. Sam Weber is one of my favorites. How does someone find out about these guest artists? Do you have to be a student? I know Greg Manchess has been there too.

Greg Newbold said...

Kim, I guess it's an advantage to teach there, but in the past, there have been efforts to get word out better. Best way is to keep an ear to the ground And know people on campus). Sometimes there is not enough room to accommodate crowds for these demos, so they don't get advertised. They are mostly for our students, but the evening presentations usually have room for guests.

Rafael Sarmento said...

This is very cool Greg, thanks for sharing! It's always inspiring to get a glimpse of what's happening inside the minds of great artists, such as Sam.

Every once in a while I am asked to review a homeschool curriculum that looks really fantastic, but my kids are not the right age for the review.  So when I was given the opportunity to personally review Apologia’s new apologetics curriculum, I Don’t Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist, I knew that my husband, Mitch, would love it.  Mitch has recently become very interested in apologetics as he was frustrated when trying to defend his faith. Although we have not yet used an Apologia curriculum, I have heard how fantastic they are from other homeschooling families.

Although I didn’t use the curriculum, I’ve had a front row seat to my husband’s use and from what I can see, this course is nothing short of thorough.  Mitch has found that while you can read the book on it’s own, the accompanying I Don’t Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist workbook has helped him work through some challenging theories and philosophies as well as add even more information.

Below are Mitch’s thoughts on I Don’t Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist:

As a kid growing up in a Jewish home in the suburbs of Long Island, the last thing I would have dreamed of doing was writing a blog post on Christian Apologetics.  Yet, here I am at the age of 40 and glad to report that the book I don’t Have Enough Faith to be an Atheist is not just a reaffirmation of scientific evidence for me as a Christ follower, but for the seeker or skeptic, this book is a game changer.

The amount of scientific data that is in this book and supplemented by the workbook is as thorough as any professor at Harvard, Yale, or other notable learning institution — as a native New Yorker and Ithaca College grad, I would be wrong to not mention Cornell.  But scientific data is not enough to prove “the truth”.  The ability to debate the truth with the best of the non-believers is what this book and workbook strive to achieve.

One of the ways the authors debate their truth is through their coined Road Runner Tactic.  Here is a segment taken out of the book/workbook to further explain:

To say a truth is relative is self-defeating.  In other words, the statement doesn’t meet its own standard.  If all truth is relative, then that statement should be relative as well, but it is absolute instead — which contradicts the point the person making the statement is trying to make!

It’s important that you know how to point out self-defeating statements like these, because often don’t even realize they’re making the kinds of statements that contradict the rules of logical thought. [workbook pg. 29]

The ability to apply every statement to itself to see if it meets its own standard is the defining aspect of this book.  In order to do so, the authors constantly not only provide the most thorough explanations to support the scientific data presented, but they also provide the opposing arguments thorough data.  Thus, they then defeat the opposing arguments with even more thorough data.  By the time you are done with one chapter, you are left with overwhelming evidence that everything in the Bible is scientifically proven from creation to the documented reliability of the old and new testaments, eye witness testimony reliability, Jesus’ crucifixion, burial and resurrection, Jesus is God, whatever Jesus [who is God] teaches is true, Jesus taught that the Bible is the Word of God, therefore, if it is true that the Bible is the Word of God [and anything opposed to it is false].

For those that choose not to believe that the information presented in this book and workbook is true and without bias, as the book clearly points out, sometimes the will is stronger than the evidence.  But I don’t have enough faith to believe in someone’s will.  I’ll believe in the truth presented thoroughly through overwhelming observational and forensic evidence.  This book is a must read for all.

The Guest Blog

By Fadi Elhusseini

Breaching U.N. Charter and violating territorial sovereignty of countries through quick air strikes is not a newfangled product. Major Powers have adopted such a practice in order to achieve quick, clean and accurate goals, avoiding any unnecessary complications of ground operations, which may bring about some unforeseen consequences. U.S. strikes on Sudan and Afghanistan in 1998 following the bombings of American embassies in Kenya and Tanzania were a case in point. Its Continuous targeting of Al-Qaeda militants in Yemen is also another case in point.

Israel has adopted such bullying behavior through conducting quick strikes against its enemies, and the most striking case was in 1981 when it targeted and destroyed the Iraqi nuclear reactor. Israel has also targeted several military posts and convoys in Sudan in the years 2009, 2011 and 2012. For Syria, Israel has adopted the “Quick Strike” strategy as many as five sporadic times in less than twelve years, and each time the Syrian regime “retained the right to retaliate”. It is the same regime which downed Turkish F-4 fighter jet near the Syrian territories in the Mediterranean Sea in June last year. The crux of this article is to divulge the contours of such ambivalent state of affairs, which requires in-depth analysis albeit it has been simplified and underestimated by many others.

Last week, Israeli F-15 jets attacked a post north east Syrian Capital Damascus. Israel, which softened its tone against Al-Asad regime since the eruption of the Syrian revolution, refused to comment on the incident. However, its Defense Minister Ehud Barak who refrained from a direct confirmation said on Sunday “It’s another proof that when we say something we mean it. We say that we don’t think that it should be allowable to bring advanced weapon systems into Lebanon.”

Security reports believed the air strike targeted a military convey bound for Lebanon, which implies an Israeli preemptive move to stop this cargo of weapons before getting into the hands of Hezbollah. The Syrian regime refuted this story claiming that the strike targeted a scientific research center near Damascus.

Iran condemned the Israeli airstrike saying Damascus retains a legal right to retaliate. Russia described the strike as blatantly violates the UN charter and is unacceptable. Other regional and international powers opted to remain silent, and to watch rather than even commenting.

According to the standpoint of many military experts, Turkey and Israel have the most sophisticated air capabilities in the whole Middle East region, and both countries have their warplanes equipped with advanced systems able to jam radars. Nevertheless, Syrian ground defenses could shoot down the Turkish aircraft while failed to do the same in five different times with Israeli ones.

In an attempt to seek justifications, some observers commented that Syrian ground defenses are too busy with the current turmoil in Syria, and for that they could not shoot down the Israeli jets. Nevertheless, this justification is erroneous for two reasons: first, the circumstances when Syria shot down the Turkish jet are not much different from the current ones. Second, Syria did not shoot down any Israeli jets in the past four occasions either, when it was not mired in any domestic turbulence, and had the same ground defenses as today.

And due to the fact that this recent strike comes in very special and different psycho-political conditions from previous ones, examining the various dimensions of this strike requires an investigation in the determinants of the Syrian decision, and the conditions and calculations of decision-makers in such unique conditions. Arguably, while the decision of shooting down any attacking jets in Syria is a political decision and not a military one subject to the vision and opinion of the commander on duty, two probabilities can be drawn clearly;

The first probability is based on the assumption that the Syrian political leadership is dealing with this incident in accordance with specific Cognitive hypothesis. On the one hand, the Syrian realization of the limits of the Turkish response for downing its warplane comes in tandem with their solid consciousness of the fact that Turkey will not immerse itself in a very complicated war, in light of current ethnic and sectarian complexities. On the other hand, the decision-maker in Syria is also aware of the fact that shooting down any Israeli jet will be a tipping point, for a likely ensuing massive backlash from Israel. Needless to say Israel yearns to instigate a scuffle and lure Iran (Syria’s main ally) into an open war with the other International powers for the sake of deterring its (Iran) nuclear capabilities. For that, the decision would be just to remain bystander, and willfully forgo unplanned actions that could add more challenges to the ailing and foundering regime and increase the odds of yanking him out of the scene utterly.

The second probability is based on the hypothesis that the decision of not shooting the attacking jets is designed according to the attempt of Syrian decision-maker to avert any instant uncalculated reactions, especially when it is related to external components of this equation. Adequate analysis and careful considerations are unquestionable features of contemporary decisions by the stringent regime, particularly under such uneven conditions. From this stance, the Syrian regime would rather keep the card of “responding on the Israeli attack” as a last “winning” card, lest things get worse, so he could release some pressure and complicate the already tangled equations in the ongoing conflict.

In fact, this outmoded brinkmanship, which is not a military one though it looks like, was adopted by former Iraqi President Saddam Hussein when he launched his missiles against Israel during the Gulf war. His move was designed in an attempt to release some pressure and engage new parties in the war which would further complicate the calculations, distract some of the attention and release some pressure.

Amid the throes of the current Syrian upheaval, the sole loser will remain the Syrian citizen. And whereas Major Powers have shown less patience and zero tolerance towards other conflicts, their reluctance in taking a serious action is leading to further atrocities and more bloodshed in Syria. Hesitation spawns confusion, and confusion leads to uncertainty which is dangerous, for it is hard to stanch the lack of confidence and chasm of mistrust in universal values of justice and humanity. Such scenes, which have surpassed the likes of others elsewhere, should solicit everyone to move and put an end to the ongoing calamity.

  1. For another perspective on this it might be useful to compare the arguments above with the following from the Israel Project, TIP, that I have just read at

    Israeli outlets from across the political spectrum are criticizing Turkey over what Israeli officials are describing as Ankara’s “brazen hypocrisy” in lashing out against Israel on a variety of issues. Analysts and pundits have expressed surprise that Turkey, a country described as having “ethnically cleansed the northern part of Cyprus and illegally settled 200,000 Turks in that territory,” would attempt to declare that Israel was a “pariah” for construction in the West Bank. Meanwhile, official Turkish criticism of Israel’s reported cross-border strikes on Syrian advanced weapons, which included insinuations that Israel should be attacked in response, sits uneasily with regular cross-border raids carried out by Turkish troops against Kurdish groups in Iraq. Turkey’s status as the world’s leader in imprisoning journalists has also been pointed to as in tension with Ankara’s diplomatic posture.

MIDI input for the Kaossilator

This isn’t strictly a MIDI input hack; [Furrtek] pulled off an alternate input hack for the Kaossilator that he’s currently using with a MIDI connection. In its unhacked form the Kaossilator is a small touchpad-based sound manipulation tool. [Furrtek] sniffed out how the touchpad data is read and used on the little device. He then purposed an ATtiny2313 as the core of a circuit that spoofs those signals. The microcontroller now listens for incoming MIDI data, looks up the proper signal translations in a table, then outputs them to the Kaossilator.

In the video after the break you can see that it works perfectly, with no lag or noticeable problems. As we alluded to at the top, there could be so much more done with this. Since the ATtiny2313 is merely translating MIDI into touchpad signals, the input could be anything. The first thing that comes to mind is a dance floor that changes the music based on how many people are out there tearing it up.

  1. That’s a great hack. Now someone bring it to the next level by using a pin of the microcontroller to read the frequency of an input signal instead of MIDI, so that one can drive the Kaossilator through a microphone or a guitar.

Shortly after the iPhone was released, a group of security researchers at Independent Security Evaluators decided to investigate how hard it would be for a remote adversary to compromise the private information stored on the device. Within two weeks of part time work, we had successfully discovered a vulnerability, developed a toolchain for working with the iPhone's architecture (which also includes some tools from the #iphone-dev community), and created a proof-of-concept exploit capable of delivering files from the user's iPhone to a remote attacker. We have notified Apple of the vulnerability and proposed a patch. Apple is currently looking into it.

Propagannon, Part 2

While we wait for the Freedom of Information Act documents regarding the White House press room access given to Jim Guckert/"Jeff Gannon", a few new wrinkles have been added to the mix.

It seems that Guckert's first press briefing was on 2/28/03, nearly a full month before his Potemkin "news" agency employer, Talon "News", had been established. Guckert is already on record as stating that he had no journalistic experience before hooking up with Talon.

Therefore, he got access without any news agency affiliation, by his own admission. How and why was he allowed in, and by whom? That's what we'll find out when the FOIA docs are released, one hopes.

At any rate, Raw Story fleshes out the new Guckert allegations. As we already know, Guckert got a look at the classified Valerie Plame memo, as did Robert Novak. For some reason, Judith Miller and Matt Cooper are facing jail time for failing to disclose their sources on the memo, yet Novak doesn't even appear to have been talked to. Is this because Novak knows where all the bodies are buried, or do we have different rules for different people?

Intelligence Squad has the rundown on all the questions asked at that 2/28/03 briefing. Most of the questions were serious and topical, regarding the impending buildup to invasion and war, European allies, Hans Blix, oil prices, economic ramifications, etc.

Here's what Guckert asked, for a "news" agency that did not even exist yet:

There have been reports out of Maine that the children of deployed service personnel are being harassed as a result of their elementary school teacher's expression of anti-war views in the classroom. Could you comment on that?

This was an urban myth spread by the usual wingnut radio suspects, especially Oxycontin Limbaugh. Its veracity has been disputed, but regardless, the angle on this question cannot be drawn with a real-world protractor.

At this point, it behooves us to ask the question, why then? What was so special about that particular point in time, that Guckert needed to be there to lob that kind of softball? And remember -- he was not there by accident. Someone vetted this guy, despite the fact that he had zero journalist credentials, and by his own admission did not work for any news agency at the time, since he has said Talon was his first.

Was Talon's pending formation a known entity, as an in-house pro-war pro-Bush propaganda mouthpiece, and as such, getting Guckert in before the pending start of war was critical to getting the message pushed as early as possible? How is it possible, that in the stepped-up security of post-9/11 America, someone with zero journalist credentials, no credible profession whatsoever, and pending tax-evasion problems in Maryland, waltzes into the White House press room and gets a pass? And what is the practical purpose of such a tactic?

And the Drudge(another weasel that bears scrutiny)-like scoops that were apparently handed to Guckert -- the starting time of the Iraq invasion before it was announced; the name of CBS News producer Mary Mapes' name, which Guckert helpfully passed along to Sean Hannity, so Fox News could break the Dan Rather Memogate scandal. Guckert clearly didn't get these scoops by investigating; someone gave them to him. Real reporters don't give away their scoops, they break them for their own news agencies. Fake reporters hand breaking news scoops off to propaganda arms for their party benefactors.

The most relevant advice comes from that most infamous of anonymous journalist sources, Deep Throat: Follow the money.

this one's for the birds

We have a thing about birds here at handmadelife : sparrows, larks, thrushes, finches, swallows, weavers, blackbirds, wrens, warblers, orioles and owls all get us a little heated. So when confronted with collectable clutter featuring one of our feathered friends our hearts skip and our wallets open.
You can imagine the excitement yesterday when we happened upon this Polish paper folk faux cookoo clock, or indeed the excellently crafted stitch work below. We were quite overcome and fell over ourselves to get some cash on the counter before another twitcher got in first.
Thank god we also managed to snaffle the "i'm a lady" teacups at the same time, so when we got home we could recover from our coniptions with a strong brew and some lemon syrup cake.

Dear Bird Lovers,

Are you familiar with the work of this woman?

Does a mean lino clock in the shape of birds.

Ooo spooky, I have never left a comment on your blog, and what do I see before me. But the clock and embroidery got me excited and I just had to say so!

handmadelife said...

Shula you're a witch! spooky spooky indeed, and Liz, so nice to see you here, and yes the desire to speak publicly about the birds really is just too strong to resist. By the way you have quite an excellent collection yourself!
