I sure did :). I couldn't find a proper blankie out there on the market to soothe my son's needs so out of necessity came the Buddy Blankie. And since my son was my little 'Buddy Bear' at the time, there's where the name came from. My son actually has a few, lol, but his first and favorite is his Jungle Patterned one. It is well worn and loved - he won't be without it Every Buddy is SomeBuddy's

The MuseData format, developed by Walter Hewlett at the Center for Computer Assisted Research in the Humanities (CCARH), located at Stanford University Eleanor Selfridge-Field from CCARH edited a magnificent book called Beyond MIDI: The Handbook of Musical Codes. Studying this volume made it clear that, as we had been advised, MuseData and Humdrum were the most comprehensive starting points for the type of language we wanted to build.

Peter Reich created the Swift Folder more than 10 years ago. He refined his design over the last decade and built and sold hundreds of bikes to New Yorkers. In 2004, Xootr LLC evaluated dozens of different bike designs and decided that the Swift Folder was the most elegant design on the market and licensed the Swift Folder from Design Mobility, Peter's company.

web usability expert Jakob Neilson put it, “The homepage is the most important page on any website, getting more page views than any other page. Of course, users don’t always enter a website from the homepage… People may follow links from search engines and other websites that reach deep inside your site. However, one of the first actions these users will take after arriving at a new site is to go to the homepage.

In an effort to utilize student creativity and encourage continuing community involvement there was a public design contest in the spring of 1999. Three of the top design submissions were combined and from those the Student Greenhouse Project's plans for the Bio-dome were developed. The design proved to be a particularly high caliber choice with many inherent advantages. You can tour and read a detailed description of the interior features and planning concepts.

Viridian Spirits worked with a top French designer who was familiar with Absinthe's past, but understood our desire to give the bottle a modern twist. The idea of using the cat's eyes came from a famous cabaret called "Le Chat Noir", which first opened in Montmartre, Paris in 1881. Several poets, including Verlaine and Rimbaud, used to spend their nights at Le Chat Noir drinking Absinthe.

Well, it couldn't be something like "True Healing" as that would be claiming an awful lot. Besides, as I have always said, I don't consider myself a "healer". So here's the scoop: As I have worked toward authenticity in my own life, the word "true" has always resonated with me. And of course, the core of what I do is massage...so that had to be there.

Dooce is a typo of dude, or dooooode!, one that I often made over and over again when having Instant Message conversations with co-workers. Some experts will tell you that it means "getting fired for something you've written on your website," but what it really means is CANNOT RESIST THE CAPS-LOCK KEY.

I met and got to know Bob Riley and his family when he was running for Congress in 1996. I immediately liked him and knew he was getting involved in public service for all the right reasons. He inspired me to get involved in public service as well (Susan will never forgive him for that, either!). He is, without a doubt, my political mentor.

That's a good question and the answer is yes, though, how did he have a son if he was like 16 when he died? We're not really sure how this happened. The answer is not accurate and we would say ask James "Yu'repoluskov" Warriors, but he died on the 19th of December, so we're sorry. We'll ask King Warriors about this or we can ask Pally Reaper II. We will update this FAQ when an answer is received.

Hemingway took "For Whom The Bell Tolls" from "Meditation 17" of John Donne's (1572-1631) work Devotions Upon Emergent Occasions. The tolling of the bell refers to the act of ringing a bell (the death knell) at a funeral to indicate that someone has died. Hemingway is drawing a parallel between the death of one person and the consequent affect on everyone, and the loss of Spain to the fascists in the Spanish Civil War.

PM Saturday, May 2nd, 1863 Jackson was wounded at the battle of Chancellorsville. He was shot through the left upper arm just beneath the shoulder. The humerus was fractured--the rachial artery was injured. He bled profusely. A second bullet entered the lateral left upper forearm and exited diagonally from the medial lower third of the forearm. A third bullet struck his right hand fracturing the second and third metacarpal bones and lodged beneath the skin on the back of his hand.

If you're asking this, you must not be a Dragon Ball Z fan.  The name is a combination of Gohan and Goku's Saiyajin name of Kakarotto.  During the Buu Saga, Goku decides to use the Potara earrings with Gohan, but his doofus of a son misses the catch.  Anyhoo, that name comes from "what if Goku and Gohan really did fuse?"  Sadly, I wasn’t blessed with childhood friends who thought up clever nicknames for each other.

Henry was one of the owners of Tivoli Audio, and he never licensed his name. If one of our products has Henry’s name on it, he was involved in its design.

For a while there I really did think that Kristin was going to let me name our daughter Dagmar. Then I realized she was just being sarcastic. Funny how wanting something so much can make you ignore subtle hints that you're not going to get it. I also liked the name Reagrin, but again, that one was nixed. Alas.

answered this question, “These boys were good football players, they could really play some football, but if we had to teach them a dance like that, they would still be at camp!” When we came out on the field for warm-ups we came out in three groups, first the quarterbacks, receivers, kickers and a couple centers, then a few minutes later the rest of the backs and linebackers and finally the linemen would come out.

Well, my parents knew that Iain and his Mum were planning to visit Radford for the hoidays, this was back in November. On the night of the engagement, I called home after the ballet, chatted with my mom for a while and inquired about how she's been sleeping. She said that after talking to my aunt on the computer the night before, she didn't get much sleep.

In a Holiday Park, a child is considered to be 14 years and under. From 15 years and older they are considered as adults and pay the adult rate. In some other accommodation establishments, different ages may apply.

You're probably right. We're just a couple of guys screwing around on the Net. We aren't getting paid for this, nor do we expect to. All of out technology is the stuff we just happened to have lying around the house. Part of the reason we are doing a radio show is because we know there is no way we can compete with the major review sites, so we decided to change the name of the game. Oh yeah, we're rebels.

Me... Just kidding. Hair Art Design HairCuts have been in existence for thousands of years. Even advertising using Hair Art Design HairCuts were being done by the early Africans where they would shave their heads in different design patterns to symbolize their status or represent what clan they come from.

Technocracy's Technological Social Design involves the control of technology, not people. In so being, its design was not decided upon, but dictated by the physical requirements of operating the installed technology. However, since human beings are involved, the design must also be in accord with the biological nature of the human animal.

The National Parenting Publications Awards (NAPPA) was founded by L.A. Parent magazine in 1990. The Children's Products division of NAPPA was designed to help parents make the best, most age-appropriate choices in children's books, toys, music, DVDs, software and spoken-word recordings for their children, from newborn to adolescents. In 1998, the Parenting Resources division was added to provide parents with a "short list" of the best products to help raise and educate their children.

Scientists identified a type of chimpanzee in West Africa as the source of HIV infection in humans. The virus most likely jumped to humans when humans hunted these chimpanzees for meat and came into contact with their infected blood. Over several years, the virus slowly spread across Africa and later into other parts of the world.

Hippocrates, an ancient Greek physician known as the "father of medicine," named the condition on the basis of the Greek word for CROOKED.

According to information presented in Encyclopedia Britannica, sugar was known in India as early as 3000 BC. Gaura, an old Indian word for sugar, was apparently derived from the name Gur, an ancient monarchy in Bengal.

Kettlebells first appeared in Russia over 100 years ago. Originally kettlebells were used in fairs and markets to balance scales when weighing heavy objects. The Russian military began using them within their training regime because they demand an overhaul of all of the body’s energy systems simultaneously.
