Paul: When are you done
Me: I am never done.

Cancer Progress Report.Category: science
A very well written comprehensive progress report on where we stand in cancer research and what we know currently in the war against cancer was released by the American Association of Cancer Research a couple days ago.
I think this report is well worth reading, if only to know a little more about this terrible disease. The plainly laid out facts in the report challenge the ill-founded conspiracy theories about how the medical, research and pharmaceutical establishments are out to get the cancer patient and are suppressing the cure to cancer (See for example: (e:vincent,55175))
If you had any questions about cancer or simply wished you had a better understanding of the disease, I highly recommend this read:

(H)Umpteen Choices!Category: linux
Humpty Dumpty was making a longtable
Yes! It was part of a thesis, and not a fable
Something about "Save" was taking far too long
Humpty didn't want to become egg foo yong
Stopping and listening to (e:strip) voices
Lead to Humpty having a million+ choices
Nice longtable reference:

Determined to make breadCategory: eating in
I have eaten like crap this entire past week. I think the only highlight of the week that went by was a cup of chocolate ice cream topped with mascarpone that I ate with Paul and Casey. I am determined to make bread this weekend. Specifically, I want to make the easy little bread from 101 cookbooks dot com:
I love that website. It's easily my most favourite recipe website ever. I like the pictures and the commentary on Pioneer Woman Cooks better, but more often than not, her recipes are too soaked in butter, too full of animal products and a trifle too rich for me to handle. I often wonder how many arteries she is clogging with her gorgeous looking blog. I am constantly tempted to go the whole nine atherosclerotic yards but I never make it through even two before I change course and convert her recipes to their ghastly poor versions. Unfortunately, they seldom take kindly to changes.
101 cookbooks, on the other hand, is all about light, airy dishes that don't take too long to cook and are infinitely "tweak-able" with equally good results down each tweaked path.

Sometimes I do put in many fruits (dry or otherwise) in my bread. Depends on what kind of bread I am making. That bread I linked is a very simple yeast bread that can be made in a total time of around 2 hours or so (a fairly short time for regular-ish non-sweet bread). The recipe looks incredibly easy.

Didn't follow the link so I gotta ask do you Fruit in Your bread? If you do or don't (yes I get that making bread is a thing to do and that is part of it) you should find a good bread place... DiCamilo's (not sure if that is spelled right) used to be amazing... Not sure if it is still open but there used to be a place that looks like a house on Niagara st. Think it was near Midas or that area but don't know if they are still around that was years ago.....

I need to face my fears, unfortunately. Every single thing on that list sound like an important part of getting back into the groove of what I wanted to do.

The Thing I find odd about this is how to me this ties in so much to that Bully story (haven't read about it really) that made National News even before GaGa jumped on board... These all sound like things that are good for anyone with troubles but the article makes it sound so easy..... Face your fear! If everyone could just do that everyone would be so much better off.... Fear of getting attacked, raped, failing, winning, getting what you want, be rejected..... The thing is and I have said this other places as well (facebook posts) is the fear is stronger then the bad thing that will happen most times...

No I didn't make that alien. I found it somewhere. I am not sure where. They are all over the place. If I had made it that would not be the shade of green I would have preferred. :)
Hmmm... internal struggle list, (e:tinypliny,55176) Relax! I think overall this message to yourself was about gaining some kind of balance. Panic is a whole lot easier to deal with when you have enjoyable things to look forward to, when your basic needs for social contact and relaxation are attended to. Having boundaries about your work will help you be more efficient while working and procrastinate less. Go play!
That is wild.... Have a shot of Jagermester and smoke a joint that will calm you down...HA... Or stay up till 4am ok maybe 3am dancing at the club and bring something home that will keep you mellow...HA.... You get up seriously about the same time I get up or try to... On a serious note again I don't know if it will help or not but some teas can from what I have heard help and will give you trippy dreams.... Guessing though they have to be with out caffeine ?
Did did make that alien?
