Arlo gets assaulted by a butterfly in Iguaz.

I know it’s cliché but words can’t describe the feelings that went through me as I got on stage that fateful night. I remember stepping out into the blaring lights momentarily disoriented and then immediately realizing that I had to start my set right away or this silence would get steadily awkward as I continued to utter nothing. After getting the initial laugh the butterflies settled down, time slowed to a surreal version of real-time and I was able to become more aware of the audience and when I should pause for laughs as I went on.

Could beetles, butterflies and other bugs yield the next generation of antibiotics and biotech enzymes ? That’s what a new German research programme aims to find out. The “Insect Biotechnology” programme is a joint effort of the Justus-Leibig-University Giessen and the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft. “Up to now, there has been no facility that systematically develops and economically benefits from the potential of insect biotechnology,” said Ulrich Buller, senior vice president for research planning at the Fraunhofer-Gesellschaft.

This is about half of a short story I am working on. I’m not sure how long it will stay up here, as it is intended for print. However, I’ve been so remiss in my posting, that I thought I’d give you a glimpse of it. I do hope you enjoy it. Will post the rest of it when it’s finished.The key slid smoothly into the lock on the front door and opened with a sharp snick.

The Blue Morpho butterflies ( Morpho peleides ), native to Central and South America, are more famous for their amazing wing colouration and now turn out to have ears on their wings.

I may be the negative Nelly of this blog, but I always worry when a breakout indie filmmaker is tapped to follow up his/her critically acclaimed Sundance sensation with a proportionately epic Hollywood production. So I’ve been somewhat concerned with the rumors that Lee Daniels , hot right now for his multi-film festival-winner (and Oscar hopeful) ” Precious: Based on the Novel Push by Sapphire ,” may helm a long-awaited film version of the hit Broadway musical ” Miss Saigon .” Daniels has been linked to the adaptation for awhile, but now Variety is officially reporting that he’s the top choice to direct the Vietnam War-set musical.

I printed the template on Kiwi Kiss cardstock, cut it out and scored all the score lines. Next I stamped the bottom of each watering can side with a stamp from Unity’s “ Growing In Unity ” stamp set. I added some highlights with a white gel pen and taped the sides together with Scor-Tape , forming the watering can.

Your Thyroid, a butterfly shaped gland, is divided into two parts. The Parathyroid gland which controls production and the Thyroid gland which produces the hormones your body needs to regulate your Basal metabolism system, which converts calories into energy. It also is part of your Endocrine system which regulates the Adrenal system. Your Thyroid is what’s supposed to be turning those calories, that are ending up on your hips and thighs, into the energy and vibrancy you’re looking for in life.

Benjamin awoke in pain, strapped to the wheelchair.  His tired eyes blinked slowly, folding and unfolding the heavy wrinkles of his forty-two year old face.  Etched into his visage was consternation, fear, and realization that this had come upon him at the most inappropriate of times-his prime. As his consciousness awoke to clarity, he remembered being in the Garden the morning [...] Related posts: Monarch Benjamin awoke in pain, strapped to the wheelchair. His tired…

Each week, The Cincinnati Man asks its writers to chime in on a particular topic and its manliness.  This week, they answer the question: “What’s the manliest invention ever?” JasonB It’s hard to talk about inventions that changed the course of history without almost explicitly ignoring the butterfly effect. With those blinders firmly in place, I’m going to say the breech-loading “Dreyse needle gun” invented in 1836.

We have covered plenty of butterfly rings on our jewelry blog, but the thing about butterflies is that you can never have just one. Wait, is that about potato chips?

Producer Paula Wagner is taking on a big project, and she’s eyeing Lee Daniels to be her helmer. Wagner plans to turn the classic Broadway musical Miss Saigon into a motion picture with the show’s original producer, Cameron Mackintosh, on board to produce with her.

H i, this is Nadia. It’s already autum! It’s getting chilly during the mornigs and evenings and the season of disappearance is on its way. I wonder if you start feeling lonely at times like this. As for me, I don’t really get lonely but I just want to get away somewhere. It’s because I love the butterflies that fly around in my stomach while I plan and prepare for a trip. Also, it’s because I know it’s time to look back at myself as the trees pass by outside the windows.

In the wee morning hours of February 1st, 2008, a four-alarm fire ravaged the most ancient and atmospheric taxidermy shop in Paris. For those familiar with Deyrolle —a crowded Cabinet of Curiosities located in a multi-roomed apartment above street level—the news was creepy, if not totally surreal (imagine all those dead beasts having to go through it all again??). “The scene had a Pompeii feeling to it, almost like an archeological dig,” recalls photographer Laurent Bochet of the charred and ransacked insides of the nearly two-hundred-year-old boutique.

A wildlife habitat provides food, water, shelter, and space arranged to meet the needs of wildlife. No matter what size, your yard can be landscaped to attract birds, small animals, beneficial insects, and butterflies. Trees, shrubs, and other plants in your yard can provide shelter and food for a wide range of wildlife. The plants you use for food and cover will help determine the wildlife species attracted to your backyard. Nesting boxes, feeders, and watering sites can be added to improve the attractiveness of your habitat.

In addition to enhancing your look and creating a sense of anticipation and festivity, your wedding stationery is an extension of your personality and style.

Your online floral shops can make dreams come true. When you buy a new home, friends and relatives can express their delight and best wishes with housewarming gifts from your favorite florists. Decorate the new home with freshly arranged, beautiful flowers. Although cheap flowers are available at your local grocer or convenience store, they are not your best buy. Frequently they have been sitting around the store for quite a while and will soon wilt and sag. Such flowers will never make the good impression you intend.

If you are anything like me, you’re already starting to think about what to give people for the holidays. This year, I’m trying to reduce my personal carbon footprint by giving presents that reflect a philosophy of conservation and earth-responsibility. You don’t have to give up imaginative giving either: thanks to the increased awareness on all things green, there has never been a better selection of eco gifts to choose from.

Over the years, rumour grew like the roses. It was said that the castle behind the thorny hedge contained a beautiful princess, who would be woken from her slumber by a kiss. Her name was said to be Briar Rose, or Rosamund, or some such derivation of the plant which entombed her. Most however simply called her Beauty. Prince Tristan was trying to find a way inside. It wasn’t that he particularly wanted to marry a princess, which is what the stories said would happen, more that his father had encouraged him to do something princely with his time “for a change”.

Krystie Lee has been making some really cute one layer cards with a rectangle stamp as the “background” and I’ve been loving the look. I don’t have a rectangle stamp (WHY DON’T I HAVE A RECTANGLE STAMP????????) so I used post-its to block off an area to sponge my colour into.. I love how it turned out. I used some old Buckaroo Blue paper from SU! and a new-to-me set called Pocket Silhouettes (also SU!). The sentiment is Whipper Snapper and the butterfly (my favourite part) is Amy Butler.

Tell me, what would you do with the two skeins of Malabrigo yarn if you won this month’s GIVEAWAY ? I have made several projects with just a few skeins of this luxurious yarn.
