There are so many fun venues for weddings! Casey is having her reception at the Blackhawk Automotive Museum - talk about a conversation starter for your guests. Casey wants to have an elegant wedding that has some fun flair and isn't stuffy, and she talked about using yellow and red. For this board I used mostly yellow and white, with some pops of red (I think too much red would be overly dramatic, and with the yellow could look a little circus-y), and some black accents to reflect the almost entirely black room. While I wouldn't go all out with a car theme, I do think it's fun to play with the venue by giving miniature die-cast cars as favors, having a different model car at each table, and putting together a trivia/quiz card with questions about cars mixed in with questions about the bride and groom. I'm not sure if this board is exactly what Casey had in mind, but I hope it provides some ideas.
Mood: fun flair Palette: yellow, with hints of red and black
These shoes left me speechless. That is very hard to do. These are drop dead gorgeous from British designer, Karen Millen. Unfortunately, she does not yet ship to the states but I would still give them a call to see if there are any US retailers carrying this fab style.
► The Cat's Eye Nebula
Three thousand light-years away, a dying star throws off shells of glowing gas. This image from the Hubble Space Telescope reveals the Cat's Eye Nebula to be one of the most complex planetary nebulae known. In fact, the features seen in the Cat's Eye are so complex that astronomers suspect the bright central object may actually be a binary star system.

► Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 6217
Many spiral galaxies have bars across their centers. Even our own Milky Way Galaxy is thought to have a modest central bar. Prominently barred spiral galaxy NGC 6217 was captured in spectacular detail in this recently released image taken by the newly repaired Advanced Camera for Surveys on the orbiting Hubble Space Telescope. Visible are dark filamentary dust lanes, young clusters of bright blue stars, red emission nebulas of glowing hydrogen gas, a long bright bar of stars across the center, and a bright active nucleus that likely houses a supermassive black hole. Light takes about 60 million years to reach us from NGC 6217, which spans about 30,000 light years across.

► Rigel and the Witch Head Nebula
This suggestively shaped reflection nebula on the lower left is associated with the bright star Rigel, to its right, in the constellation Orion. More formally known as IC 2118, the Witch Head Nebula glows primarily by light reflected from Rigel. Fine dust in the nebula reflects the light.

► Spitzer's M101
Big, beautiful spiral galaxy M101 is one of the last entries in Charles Messier's famous catalog, but definitely not one of the least. About 170,000 light-years across, this galaxy is enormous, almost twice the size of our own Milky Way Galaxy. M101 was also one of the original spiral nebulae observed by Lord Rosse's large 19th century telescope, the Leviathan of Parsontown. Recorded at infrared wavelengths by the Spitzer Space telescope, this 21st century view shows starlight in blue hues while the galaxy's dust clouds are in red. Examining the dust features in the outer rim of the galaxy, astronomers have found that organic molecules present throughout the rest of M101 are lacking. The organic molecules tracked by Spitzer's instruments are called polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs). Of course, PAHs are common components of dust in the Milky Way and on planet Earth are found in soot. PAHs are likely destroyed near the outer edges of M101 by energetic radiation in intense star forming region. Also known as the Pinwheel Galaxy, M101 lies within the boundaries of the northern constellation Ursa Major, about 25 million light-years away.

► Dust and the Helix Nebula
Dust makes this cosmic eye look red. The eerie Spitzer Space Telescope image shows infrared radiation from the well-studied Helix Nebula (NGC 7293) a mere 700 light-years away in the constellation Aquarius. The two light-year diameter shroud of dust and gas around a central white dwarf has long been considered an excellent example of a planetary nebula, representing the final stages in the evolution of a sun-like star.

► Not a Blue Moon
This bright Full Moon was captured on December 2nd, 2009, shining above a church overlooking the River Po, in Turin, Italy. It was the first Full Moon in December.

► Comet Halley's Nucleus: An Orbiting Iceberg
Formed from the primordial stuff of the Solar System, comet nuclei were thought to resemble very dirty icebergs. But ground-based telescopes revealed only the surrounding cloud of gas and dust of active comets nearing the Sun, clearly resolving only the comet's coma, and the characteristic cometary tails. In 1986, however, the European spacecraft Giotto became one of the first group of spacecraft ever to encounter and photograph the nucleus of a comet, passing and imaging Halley's nucleus as it approached the sun. Data from Giotto's camera was used to generate this enhanced image of the potato shaped nucleus that measures roughly 15 kilometers across.

Title: ARTI, India, Biogas from food waste - Ashden Award winner
This video can be downloaded here: http://www.ashdenawards.org/winners/arti06
ARTI won an Ashden Award for Sustainable Energy in 2006. To find out more visit the link above and check out the Ashden Awards Blog http://ashdenawards.blogspot.com
The Appropriate Rural Technology Institute (ARTI) in Pune has developed a biogas plant which uses food waste rather than manure as feedstock and supplies biogas for cooking. The plant is sufficiently compact to be used by urban households, and over 700 are currently in use.
Pune is a relatively affluent city in south India, and many people use liquid petroleum gas (LPG) or kerosene for cooking. Waste food is often discarded at the side of the road, as in many cities, attracting stray dogs, flies and rats and creating a public health hazard. The ARTI compact biogas plant is made from two standard high-density polyethylene (HDPE) water tanks: the larger tank acts as the digester and the smaller one is inverted and placed into it to serve as a gas-holder. The plant safely digests kitchen waste, food waste or waste flour from mills, thus reducing the problem of waste disposal. A 1,000 litre plant produces sufficient biogas to at least halve the use of LPG or kerosene for cooking in a household, as well as a small amount of liquid effluent which can be used as fertiliser. ARTI has developed the technology, field tested it, and managed the supply of about 700 biogas plants in Maharashtra. Around 100 plants are now being installed every month.
The first-prize Ashden Award to ARTI recognises the enormous potential for using this compact biogas digester in towns and cities, both to supply cooking gas and to assist in the disposal of organic waste.
So my birthday was Saturday. To celebrate my San Diego BFF Brooke took me to Julian, CA for apple pie. You might remember the last time I went to Julian last fall with Kyle. Anyway it was a total surprise to me but what made it even BETTER was that we were able to drive up in her fiance's Niessan 350Z convertible!
Excuse me while I wipe the drool off my face.
It was such a fun afternoon to spend with such a good friend. She really went above and beyond to make the day special for me, a birthday I wasn't much looking forward to because Kyle isn't home yet.
Here are some pictures of my two favortie birthday presents. One from my husband and one from a My Grandparents/My parents/me (well....mostly me!)
I'll give you a hint, the flowers are from Kyle :-)
-yes it's real....and yes I paid retail. I've wanted one for 7 years, and I finally have it!
I know it's Sunday. But sometimes I feel like posting on the weekend!
If you're going to go ahead and have your wedding on New Year's Eve, it will have to be quite the party. The bubbles in champagne always remind me a little of glitter and sparkles, so this would be a gold and white, bubbly, glittery event.
