BTW, the Ecover version of MOS is almost as wonderful, and slightly cheaper at Whole Foods than MOS.
Tep, you can Google for the various techniques to minimize some of the discoloration, too. I know I used some of them when we uncovered our floors. But that was a long time ago.
Dude! Are none of you celebrating the lack of navigational skills day?
Kindercare is. Kindercare is closed for professional development. As a result, I'm in my bedroom, remoting in to work, and Lillian is, err. In the living room, watching Classic Sesame Street, because I'm a horrible parent when I actually have work they pay me for that needs to be done.
there is a street fair outside my offices today, so I am going to go get crepes and a funnel cake for lunch.
A coworker just headed off to get a crepe, too! I was thinking about some fried situation after work, but we'll see.
Okay. HELP needed desperately.
When I lived in Belgium (spring of 1993, I believe), there was a great op-ed piece in the International Herald Tribune written by Sandra Cisneros regarding the war in Sarajevo (where she had lived). It mentioned her friend Jasna.
I cannot find my copy of this and I desperately need it.
Anyone able to hook a sister up?
OH! it was from a speech at the International Woman's Day Rally
Kat, I see a 1993 article that is a letter from Jasna K to Cisneros in a couple of papers. But the online database I have for the IHT specifically begins in 1997.
Quick math-type question. Faux-son is here doing algebra II stuff. He just asked if there is a way to calculate the sum of the first 50 multiples of 6 without...you know, calculating them by hand. He has a schmancy calculator that probably has this function, but I know not how to guide him.
Is there a formula?

There is one that selectively goes back to 1991 for the IHT, but it's not there.
Darn, I forgot about the street fair.
Is there a formula?
There is. He's calculating 6*1+6*2+...6*50, which is the same as 6*(1+2+3+...50). He probably has learned or been exposed to the formula for teh summary of sequential integers, I think it is (n*n+1)/2 and in this case n=50.
Damn! I can't find it and it is making me crazy. I tried the IHT archives. And I know from an interview with Cisneros that it ran in the NYT but their archives are giving me no love either. I can use Thompson Gale stuff at school, but cannot find it.
Which is sad because it's this utterly beautiful piece that I need for Wednesday. It would be around March 1993.
But thank you, sparky and Lee, for trying!
