Mon, Jun 25th 2012No friggin way!
No shows scheduled at this time.
Mon, Jun 25th 2012
But yes, it's true. After over 10 years, the albums of my travels are done. The videos are there, the diary entries are there, and yes, believe it or not--the photos are there! Finally. I just set my mind to finishing it and I did just that.
Now, I'm of course behind on all my other things. Alas, alas.
Thu, May 10th 2012
Well, not much to say. A lot of work. A lot of work. Some play.
Sun, Jul 25th 2010
Well, I'm enjoying a nice summer. Still living in Pleasanton. La vie est belle.
Tue, Jan 19th 2010
Hey, only 7 months since I last updated this. Okay. Well, the master's is done. Taipei is done. School is done. A few shows were done. Ugh. I simply must update this more often.
Fri, Jun 19th 2009
Well, I've finished teaching for the year. They were good students. I will miss them. Right after leaving the class for the last time, I realized that.
In other news, my thesis appears to be approved by both professors, so I have to have it printed and bound this summer. Master's by August? I had no idea how many hours I would be putting into it--over 100 pages now.
My running is now up to 12 miles (painfully!).
Piano playing is going quite well. Almost ready to record.
French needs practice.
Karate going well. More frequent workouts this summer.
Sweet Charity is a BLAST! Each rehearsal gets wilder and wilder.
Dinner shows are going well. This summer will be busy with them.
Still need to illustrate my children's book.
Now, I can finish my main novel. What's it been? Six years now?
Tue, Feb 3rd 2009
It's now February...
Diary updated. Electronic review of the Garmin Forerunner 305 posted.
Sun, Jan 4th 2009
No shows right now. School starts tomorrow (Jan 5). Still working on the thesis and exit exam.
Sat, Jun 7th 2008
Well, Urinetown is about done, and after six months of rehearsing and performing, I'm ready for a break. On my site, I've updated the Portfolio page. It was getting outdated. I also updated the diary recently. In other news, summer is almost here. I'm going to work a lot and study as well. Perhaps I'll even be teaching in the fall.
Sun, Mar 2nd 2008
Iron Curtain goes well. Weight lifting going well. School goes...well. Life is good.
Fri, Dec 21st 2007
I'm on Christmas vacation! Doing more shows now. Feeling fine!
Fri, Aug 24th 2007
Well, Wonderful Town goes well. Most performances have been to near sell-out crowds. Great to have full crowds for a show that many have never seen. Good news for the future of musicals. People are learning that it isn't necessary to put on The Sound of Music over and over and over...and over.
Sun, Aug 5th 2007
We open soon. Buy tickets early. That is all.
Tue, Jul 10th 2007
Well, good luck getting tickets now, but I think some are left. For info, visit here: Saigon Info. That's about all. Now I start Wonderful Town rehearsals.
Mon, Apr 9th 2007
City of Angels done. Now have a little time where I might be able to make a diary update. School goes well. Work is busy. Yeah, life marches on.
Sun, Aug 20th 2006
Well, alright. After over four years, I've updated the website again. I guess I've just been busy. Moreover, I upgraded webhosts. The old hosting company had a nice staff, but they have just fallen too far behind in competitive services. Thus, I had to leave them behind. Mainly it's this: they offer 1 GB of storage. For the same price, Network Solutions offers 7 GB. That's a huge difference. Also, and it's big, is that my old company allows 25 GB of bandwidth (how many people can view how much stuff before getting charged more). Well, NS offers 150 GB! Even the $25 account only allows 100 GB. These things played a factor in me switching. But also, NS had bandwidth tracking and log analysis. I asked my old company about this. I was told to try renting a whole server and doing it myself. Yeah...buh bye.
In other news...hmmm....I think I'll use my diary for the rest. This is suppposed to be quick.
Tue, Mar 7th 2006
School is almost done. Who knows, maybe I'll even have that diploma this time. Work goes well. Dinner theatre goes great! Still reading a lot. Still seeing Marie, of course! Enjoying the Lexus. Thinking about Europe. Living in Pleasanton. No regular theatre right now. Some piano playing, but not a lot--just too busy. Missed the Oscars--they bore me. Got a new phone that plays music. Bought a new drawing pad for work. Bought a new backup hard drive, for backing things up. Bought a Bluetooth headset. Returned headset (didn't fit right).
Mon, Jan 2nd 2006
Diary updated. Wahoo! School starts this week. It's a new year. More dinner theatre coming up.
Fri, Oct 21st 2005
School's not done. Summer was AWESOME, but over. Fall is a little warm so far (yeah!). My show goes up next month. Work is great. I sleep sometimes.
Fri, Jun 10th 2005
I'm now involved with Beauty and the Beast. I finished school (I think).
Mon, May 2nd 2005
I moved. Enough said.
Oh yeah, the diary is updated, too.
Wed, Feb 2nd 2005
I updated my diary page. Wahoo! And they said it would never happen. This month I have four mystery dinner shows. Two are at the Pleasanton Hotel. I might audition for Camelot next week. My backyard is a mess. The weather is getting nicer though.
Sun, Dec 5th 2004
School almost done. Work goes well.
Tue, Oct 26th 2004
School and work. That's what I've been doing. I also have done several dinner shows lately.
Mon, Sep 13th 2004
Finished a busy week. Did extra work on tv show. Did church sketch. Passed karate test. Saw Grease. Finally rested.
Thu, Sep 2nd 2004
Work goes great. No shows. Well, a few dinner shows. Tried acupuncture. Didn't really help my tweaked shoulder. Oh well. Testing for next karate brown belt level next week. School starting in three weeks. Extra work in TV show coming up this weekend.
Sun, Aug 1st 2004
Carousel is finished. School is on summer break. No current shows aside from dinner theatre. Several books finished recently. Some new photos taken.
Fri, Feb 13th 2004
Alright, the diary needs updating. I know, I know. I've just been so darn busy. Anyway, I'm doing a show at Las Positas College, I'm going to Cal State Hayward, and I'm working to pay the bills. Spare time is not exactly abundant right now. But I will have an update soon. In the meantime, read a novel. Better yet -- write a novel.
Sat, Jan 17th 2004
ikes! A new year has dawned. The biggest event for me has been my trip to London and Paris. I got some nice photos; though the only sunlight I saw was the morning we left the airport to return home. Nevertheless, I have much to write about. It should be done...eventually*.
* eventually = anytime after now.
Fri, Dec 26th 2003
Christmas is over. I've got a few days until LONDON! Paris should be fun too. I'll try to take lots of pictures.
Fri, Dec 12th 2003
Christmas is almost here. I'm done with my first quarter at Cal State Hayward too. Nice to have a break. No shows for now.
Fri, Nov 14th 2003
Finally, the diary is updated. Being busy with school, the diary does get behind. No show right now, only schoolwork and plans for London and Paris. Last year at this time, I was in class at the University of London.
Thu, Sep 4th 2003
Wizard of Oz has opened and is going great. School starts September 25th. I'm back at Channel 30 every week for a while. I'm teaching a voice class too. Busy busy.
Fri, Aug 8th 2003
Rehearsing for Wizard of Oz. Details to come. Reading "War & Peace". Last book: Oliver Twist. Latest movie: Spider (very slow; but very good).
Sat, May 3rd 2003
Cast collages are all online now. They can be viewed and ordered.
Fri, Apr 25th 2003
Things are going DATABASE. My book reviews and movie reviews are all DB driven now. And they've been updated.
Thu, Apr 24th 2003
Okay, Oklahoma! is now done. Was a great show and played to almost all full houses. But after 19 shows, it's nice to have the weekends back. I'm building an Oklahoma! site to show pictures, bios, etc. Should be done 'soon' .
Thu, Jan 2nd 2003
I'm doing another show - Oklahoma! It's at Hayward Little Theatre in Hayward and runs from March 21st - April 18th, 2003. More on that later. Oh yeah, and I play Will Parker.
The Crazy For You cast collage is done!
That's the scoop. The diary has more details. Well, it might.

Hardly a day after the Isles deputy minister for Tourism, Culture, Youth and Sports, Bihindi Ali Hamad, announced a process of reviewing the Zanzibar Football Association's constitution, the soccer body has faulted the initiative.
ZFA Vice-President Haji Ameir has surfaced and strongly challenged the Isles national sports council (BTMZ) as ineligible to carry on the exercise.
Ameir objected the move claiming the BMTZ should first acquire blessings from the ZFA executive committee before working on the constitutional reviews.
Ameir announced the challenge during a press conference held at the soccer association's headquarters located at the Bwawani Hotel here yesterday.
The ZFA official said his body has been shocked by the move initiated by the ministry through the sports council while there has been a violation of the constitution last amended in 2010.
He said ZFA secretariat is responsible to make constitutional amendments and there is no other organ that can hijack the responsibility at any degree.
The constitutional reviews are being carried out without consulting officials of the football association at the district level, complained Ameir.
"All matters pertaining to changes, additions or rectifications of the current constitution are versed with the ZFA and not BMTZ," said Ameir.
He said BMTZ has violated potential and fundamental etiquettes that might likely ignite another wrangle in the football matters in Zanzibar.
Ameir said BMTZ chairperson must work closely with the ZFA leadership panel and not alone in the whole procedures of amending the constitution.
The ZFA boss said the BMTZ has not singled out or identify where in particular the ZFA constitution has fault while it approved the amendments in 2010.
Ameir said the ZFA general election has been conducted last year and whoever needs to aspire for any post is advised to be patient until 2015 but not to make interference to the leadership which has been installed through democratic process.
"The Government should be aware with officials who are intending to create confusion through bypassing legal procedures as underlined by both CAF and FIFA," barked Ameir during the press conference yesterday.
Ameir faulted BMTZ as the organ now heading to brew a fresh crisis through spoiling the current serenity prevailing in the football body.
"You need a permission to clean up ones house however dirty or filthy it might look, otherwise trouble is likely to erupt," said Ameir blasting the BMTZ initiative.
The ZFA official said his body will be forced to protest to CAF and later FIFA should the BMTZ carry on interfering with the football association's affairs.
The deputy minister had announced inside the House of Representative early this week the initiative of collecting views for amendments of the ZFA constitution aimed at ironing out squabbles inside the association.
ZFA leaders have been frequently blamed for creating an ambiance that has been keeping them in power despite holding democratic election.
The association's president Ali Ferej Tamim, who is now in sick leave, has been in power for over two decades.


text: Our balsamic vinegar is crafted exclusively for us in Modena, Italy, by the Leonardi family—makers of fine vinegars for three generations. It's blended from the must of Trebbiano and Lambrusco grapes, combined with wine vinegar, then aged in wooden casks. This traditional vinegar-making process is carefully monitored by the balsamic consortium, which strictly regulates every detail—from grape varietals, growing regions and how the grapes are grown, to aging methods and more. The impressive result is a rich, aromatic vinegar with complex flavor, aroma and color and perfect sweetness. Use it as a finishing condiment, drizzled over everything from salads and grilled meats to artisan cheeses and fresh berries.

Last week, Rue had a company-wide volunteer day. And for the first time in, well, ever, I wore a tee and denim cutoff shorts to work. To be honest, it was kind of life-changing. No need for crossed legs. No fear of a stray, skirt-furling gust of wind.
But can one actually wear shorts to the office?
Tom Ford, fashion tycoon, is firm in his stance when it comes to menswear. Simply, no. "A man should never wear shorts in the city…. Shorts should only be worn on the tennis court or on the beach." But I believe the answer – for men and women both – is far more subjective than that. Shorts can be office-appropriate. Read on for the nitty gritty.
Rule #1. Appropriate-for-work shorts are not appropriate for all places of work.
Shorts may fly in creative or casual offices, or on casual Fridays. But if your typical office attire is a skirt and tucked button-down, or slacks and a tailored blazer, steer clear. If your job is client-facing, err on the safe side and avoid them.
Rule #2. Keep shorts the same length as the skirts you'd feel comfortable wearing to work.
Or longer. If you wouldn't wear a mini to that 9AM meeting, don't wear shorts of the same length. Period. Shorts that hit near the knee are your best bet.
Rule #3. Styles and fabrics must be polished.
No tie-dye, cutoffs, cargos, Daisy Dukes, acid wash… you get it. Look for fabrics like garbardine (a "dry clean only" standby) or cotton poplin and hems that are cleanly finished or cuffed.
Rule #4. Go modest with the rest of your outfit.
As a general rule, if you're baring skin on the bottom, cover up on top. Think tailored blazers, crisp button-downs, and high-neck peplums. For shoes, stick to classic heels like pumps – and stay far away from flip-flops. Like those volunteer-day denim cutoffs, they're best left at home.

Methods to Improve your G.P.A
There are three methods to improve your G.P.A. The first method is to get grades of C or better in your classes. We highly recommend aiming for A's and B's to raise your G.P.A. above a 2.0. The second method is course repetition. The third method is academic renewal. Course repetition and academic renewal will be explained in the next two slides.

Title 48 - Environmental Protection and Conservation
Interstate Compact to Conserve Oil and Gas
SECTION 48-41-10. Adoption of Interstate Compact to Conserve Oil and Gas authorized.
(A) The Governor of the State of South Carolina is hereby authorized and directed, for and in the name of the State, to join the organization of states known as the Interstate Oil Compact Commission, created and established with the consent of Congress by the Interstate Compact to Conserve Oil and Gas, which has been extended from time to time by Congress, as an associate member and in the event that South Carolina becomes an "oil-producing state" and is thereby permitted to become a member of the Interstate Oil Compact Commission and join with other states in the Interstate Compact to Conserve Oil and Gas. The Governor is hereby authorized and directed, for and in the name of the State, to become a member of the commission and join the compact which is now deposited with the Department of State of the United States.
(B) The interstate compact to conserve oil and gas referred to above reads as follows:
This agreement may become effective within any compacting state at any time as prescribed by that state, and shall become effective within those states ratifying it whenever any three of the states of Texas, Oklahoma, California, and New Mexico have ratified and Congress has given its consent. Any oil-producing state may become a party hereto as hereinafter provided.
The purpose of this Compact is to conserve oil and gas by the prevention of physical waste thereof from any cause.
Each state bound hereby agrees that within a reasonable time it will enact laws, or if laws have been enacted, then it agrees to continue the same in force, to accomplish within reasonable limits the prevention of:
(a) The operation of any oil well with an inefficient gas-oil ratio;
(b) The drowning with water of any stratum capable of producing oil or gas, or both oil and gas, in paying quantities;
(c) The avoidable escape into the open air or the wasteful burning of gas from a natural gas well;
(d) The creation of unnecessary fire hazards;
(e) The drilling, equipping, locating, spacing, or operating of a well or wells so as to bring about physical waste of oil or gas or loss in the ultimate recovery thereof;
(f) The inefficient, excessive, or improper use of the reservoir energy in producing any well.
The enumeration of the foregoing subjects shall not limit the scope of the authority of any state.
Each state bound hereby agrees that it will, within a reasonable time, enact statutes, or if such statutes have been enacted then that it will continue the same in force, providing in effect that oil produced in violation of its valid order and/or gas conservation statutes or any valid rule, order, or regulation promulgated thereunder, shall be denied access to commerce; and providing for stringent penalties for the waste of either oil or gas.
It is not the purpose of this Compact to authorize the states joining herein to limit the production of oil or gas for the purpose of stabilizing or fixing the price thereof, or create or perpetuate monopoly, or to promote regimentation, but is limited to the purpose of conserving oil and gas and preventing the avoidable waste thereof within reasonable limitations.
Each state joining herein shall appoint a representative to a Commission hereby constituted and designated as The Interstate Oil Compact Commission, the duty of which said Commission shall be to make inquiry and ascertain from time to time such methods, practices, circumstances, and conditions as may be disclosed for bringing about conservation and the prevention of physical waste of oil and gas; and at such intervals as said Commission deems beneficial it shall report its findings and recommendations to the several states for adoption or rejection.
The Commission shall have power to recommend the coordination of the exercise of the police powers of the several states within their several jurisdictions to promote the maximum ultimate recovery from the petroleum reserves of said states, and to recommend measures for the maximum ultimate recovery of oil and gas. Said Commission shall organize and adopt suitable rules and regulations for the conduct of its business.
No action shall be taken by the Commission, except: (1) by the affirmative votes of the majority of the whole number of the compacting states, represented at any meeting; and (2) by a concurring vote of a majority in interest of the compacting states at said meeting, such interest to be determined as follows: Such vote of each state shall be in the decimal proportion fixed by the ratio of its daily average production during the preceding calendar half-year to the daily average production of the compacting states during said period.
No state by joining herein shall become financially obligated to any other state, nor shall the breach of the terms hereof by any state subject such state to financial responsibility to the other states joining herein.
This Compact shall expire September 1, 1937. But any state joining herein may, upon sixty (60) days notice withdraw herefrom.
The representatives of the signatory states have signed this agreement in a single original, which shall be deposited in the archives of the Department of State of the United States, and a duly certified copy shall be forwarded to the Governor of each of the signatory states.
The Compact shall become effective when ratified and approved as provided in Article I. Any oil-producing state may become a party hereto by affixing its signature to a counterpart to be similarly deposited, certified, and ratified."
(C) The Governor of South Carolina is further authorized and directed, for and in the name of the State, to execute agreements for the further extension of the expiration date of the Interstate Oil Compact to Conserve Oil and Gas in the event that South Carolina becomes an oil-producing state and is permitted to join in the Compact.
(D) The Governor shall be official representative of the State on the Interstate Oil Compact Commission and shall exercise and perform for the State all the power and duties as an associate member or as a member, if the State is permitted to become a member, of the Interstate Oil Compact Commission; provided, that he shall have the authority to appoint an assistant representative who shall act in his stead as the official representative of the State on the said commission. The assistant representative shall take the oath of office prescribed by the constitution, which shall be filed with any of the officials of the United States and State of South Carolina as may be provided for by law.

(a) Beginning with fiscal year 1999, the performance plans required under section 1115 may include proposals to waive administrative procedural requirements and controls, including specification of personnel staffing levels, limitations on compensation or remuneration, and prohibitions or restrictions on funding transfers among budget object classification 20 and subclassifications 11, 12, 31, and 32 of each annual budget submitted under section 1105, in return for specific individual or organization accountability to achieve a performance goal. In preparing and submitting the performance plan under section 1105 (a)(29), [2] the Director of the Office of Management and Budget shall review and may approve any proposed waivers. A waiver shall take effect at the beginning of the fiscal year for which the waiver is approved.
(b) Any such proposal under subsection (a) shall describe the anticipated effects on performance resulting from greater managerial or organizational flexibility, discretion, and authority, and shall quantify the expected improvements in performance resulting from any waiver. The expected improvements shall be compared to current actual performance, and to the projected level of performance that would be achieved independent of any waiver.
(c) Any proposal waiving limitations on compensation or remuneration shall precisely express the monetary change in compensation or remuneration amounts, such as bonuses or awards, that shall result from meeting, exceeding, or failing to meet performance goals.
(d) Any proposed waiver of procedural requirements or controls imposed by an agency (other than the proposing agency or the Office of Management and Budget) may not be included in a performance plan unless it is endorsed by the agency that established the requirement, and the endorsement included in the proposing agency's performance plan.
(e) A waiver shall be in effect for one or two years as specified by the Director of the Office of Management and Budget in approving the waiver. A waiver may be renewed for a subsequent year. After a waiver has been in effect for three consecutive years, the performance plan prepared under section 1115 may propose that a waiver, other than a waiver of limitations on compensation or remuneration, be made permanent.

Weird Dream
I can only post this to my Bridge Family. Others might think its crazy. I had a dream last night that I was at my childhood home in the backyard. There were about 20 Golden's running around. I got to see Belle who I lost 1 1/2 ago. However, I thought it was interesting to see the other Golden's. I couldn't figure out why they were all there. Wondering, if it was God's way of showing me the bridge, but using part of my past not to give away it's majestic identity. It was a quick dream, trying to find one of my babies. Nothing more or less.

When someone passes, I always think there's a party in Heaven that day. Perhaps there was a party at the Bridge and you got to have a glimpse of it.
The thought of your dream made me smile. Thank you for sharing it.

|The Following User Says Thank You to Nath For This Useful Post:
I woke up one morning with my pillow dripping wet from crying in my sleep during a dream. In the dream my father showed up in the back of a taxicab to tell me he'd passed away and had stopped by on his way to Heaven to tell me he loved me, how proud he was of me, and to take care of my mother and sister. I was bawling my eyes out in the dream, unbelieving in what I was hearing and seeing.
When I woke up I crawled out of bed and went to the front door to pick up the L.A. Times off of the front porch, shaking my head at the dream, there was a telegram stuck under the door that had arrived minutes before.
"Daniel, I'm so sorry to tell you your father passed away suddenly last night. Please call immediately - Cousin Albert"
From that moment on I've believed some dreams are visions seen through an unfettered connection to 'The Other Side', one we used to have as 2 year olds, but forgot we have.

Birth Place: Marshall, Minnesota, USA
Steve Zahn was born on Nov. 13, 1967, and grew up on a farm in the Southwestern Minnesota town of Marshall. His father was a Lutheran pastor who - somewhat surprisingly - encouraged his class clown son by buying him hardly G-rated George Carlin records. In high school, Zahn found an outlet for antics by joining the theater department, eventually expanding to regional theater performances. Following high school graduation and less than a semester at Gustavus Adolphus College in St. Peter, Zahn was living in his parents' basement and working as a machinist when he successfully auditioned for a role in "Biloxi Blues" at a local dinner theater. The eight-month run paid more than any labor jobs h... Continue Bio >>

Furnace Making Noise:
If your furnace is making too much noise, there is something wrong with the ductwork. The noises that we hear are generated by the expansion and contraction of the ductwork due to the passage of hot air inside them. In order to fix this problem, turn on the furnace and wait for the sharp noise to find out the location of the noise. Measure the width of all sides of the duct at this particular point. Fit iron angles according to these measurements at the problem location. This will stiffen the ductwork, and restrict its contraction and expansion. Repeat the same procedure for all sources of noise.
Production of excessive soot:
Production of excessive soot is another common furnace repair Montgomery requirement Soot formation generally takes place due to the use of low quality fuel. Consider switching a higher quality fuel if you are facing this problem. This may also take place if the filters of your furnace are clogged. Cleaning or replacing the filter is the next step if your furnace continues to produce black soot even after using a better fuel. Apart from the filter, thoroughly clean all other parts like duct work, chimney, and flue with a cleaning brush. The problem could be with the fan limit switch, heat exchanger, burner, or the barometric dumper, if all the above mentioned tips fail to solve the problem. In that case, you may think about hiring a furnace repair Montgomery technician to fix the problem.
Furnace is Not Igniting or Turning On:
Most of the furnaces have a flame sensor and an igniter. The function of the flame sensors is to ignite the gas and circulate heat inside the room. The furnaces are shut down by flame sensors when there is a problem with the igniter. Replacing the igniter is the only fix of this problem. While choosing the replacement igniter, look for one that matches perfectly with the old igniter. Consider using silicon nitride igniter if you have already replaced your igniter several times. These igniters have much higher durability comparing to the commonly used silicon carbide igniters.
Repair or replace? If your gas furnace falters or fails, a few simple procedures may save you the cost and trouble of seeking professional help: If you're getting low airflow, check the air filter on the furnace; a clogged filter could cut airflow to a trickle. See if there are loose wires or a malfunction in the thermostat. For an electronic thermostat that runs on batteries, try changing them. Are fuses burned out or circuit breakers tripped? If so, power may have been cut to the fan or circuit board. If those steps don't work, call a heating contractor. Despite the improved efficiency of most new furnaces, it's generally more cost-effective to repair a furnace than to replace it. However, if a key component such as the heat exchanger or control module fails, you're probably better off replacing the furnace, especially if the unit is more than about 15 years old (furnaces typically last an average of 15 to 18 years).

UNDATED (www.incnow.tv) - According to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention more than a million Americans are hospitalized annually with pneumonia.
While this disease can be deadly to adults and the elderly, it is worse when it involves children.
The easiest way to combat this is to ensure your children are getting their annual vaccinations.
The U.S. CDC recommends getting children immunized as early as 6-months-old.

I also started a blog to facilitate participation in this challenge. I figured that if I wrote everything down I'd be less inclined to give up. It's at http://bronwyncarlisle.blogspot.com/ and contains more photos and details about food and calories and walks and stuff if anyone is interested.
I did the same thing! It really helps.....you think about what you have to write to the world, and make better decisions. It's helping me, anyhow.
I've been trying to post every day to my journal, but I did go off track one day. It was "New Menu" day at work, which means little bites of aaaalllll the new items. We all know how those little bites add up, so I just had an orange for my real lunch.
Next week I'm going to up the veggie factor, as I think I go a bit heavy on the proteins, and also to include more vegetarian proteins. I like that veggie meals tend to feel lighter in my stomach. ^_^
My week started really well, but from Tuesday onwards it went totally down hill. I got the flu and have had no energy since Wednesday - so I will start over again tomorrow and work a week behind. I was really looking forward to the whole challenge and I want to see the whole thing through so I'll let you know how I get on.
I think my first week went pretty well. I had committed to making 3 bentos for myself, but in reality made 4 for myself, and 2 for the hubby. I'm not a morning person, so I prepare all meals the night before (is this considered cheating?) I found one of the most challenging aspects was in trying to include a variety of foods in the bentos each day without too much repeats. I also found that I spent way more time preparing the bentos that I would've liked!
For this coming week, I'm going to try working on the planning aspect, mise en place and hopefully, cutting down the preparation time. I've already started to use the meal planner to pre-plan for this coming week's menu... let's see if I can stick to it! I'll be making bentos for all days that I don't have work-related lunches (4) as well as bentos for the hubby. I think my bentos have a good amount of veggies already, but I'll continue to work on the right "balance" of veggies/protein/carb ratio. I think I could also definitely improve my presentation a bit.
That's all I have to report for now... looking forward to week 2!
After moving from New Hampshire and spending two weeks in Orange County, and gaining eight pounds of "In-n-out-el-pollo-loco-del-taco-bahia-too-lazy-to-walk-outside" weight, my move to San Francisco seemed like an ideal time to kick start my taking better care of myself. I signed up for another round of Self magazine's Reach Your Goal, to keep track of both my food and my fitness efforts. Maki's challenge was also perfect timing, because I can easily do both!
Alas, the fitness portion of the week did not go as well as planned, although I've been enjoying the chance to walk about my new neighborhood as much as possible, so it hasn't been a complete wash.
I live less than half a mile away from the Noe Valley Farmers market, which occurs each Saturday on 24th street. The produce is bountiful, as we live in the middle of the most fertile landscape. In an effort to watch both my wallet and avoid wasting food, I've been attempting to work on a twenty dollar budget for the farmers market each week. This has generally given me two full tote bags full of produce, as our the market is significantly cheaper than the supermarket for most items.
In addition to the farmers market, I made additional stops at Drewes Meat Market, down our block, which has been open since the 1880's, where my good friend Umberto, tells me that he likes young women with dark hair and fair skin, and gives me good deals on my bacon.
I made one more important outing, to Manila Oriental Market, which, while bigger and better, and more well stocked than a super 88, still doesn't quite compare to Kam Man foods in Quincy. It also smells strongly of fish. Nevertheless, I managed to stock up on freezer items and sauces of various kinds. I also acquired a half gallon of Boku (Young Coconut) ice cream from Mitchells, you know, for the diet.
The Food: (Photo's seen in Flickr, username: (alphaprep)
For the most part, I did some prep on Sunday for the week, cooking a large batch of Turkish Zucchini, as well as a pot of Butternut Squash and Apple soup. Most of my Bentos were comprised of doctored leftovers from the night before.
Monday Bento: Kapuska, a Turkish dish with cabbage and ground meat (I used turkey), roasted green beans, 1/4 cup cherries, 1/4 cup Young Coconut Buko ice cream
Tuesday Bento: Turkish zucchini, Lemon Parmesan chicken, Roasted potatoes, blackberries and cherries
Wednesday Bento: Turkish zucchini, carrot salad with a line of feta, a quesadilla wedge (not in bento), a home made turkey burger
Thursday Bento: Braised swiss chard with parmesan, Veggie curry with rice noodles
Friday Bento: Shiro miso Rice Noodle soup with a poached egg, fennel salad
What I learned this week:
Packing Bento's actually seems to be a no brainer. I'm also making the effort to pack the man bentos, which have to be eaten completely on the go, need to be more calories, and also slightly more of the "American fare". He certainly tries things though, and was pleasantly surprised at the deliciousness of the (Tortilla, PB, honey and banana wrap).
The biggest problem for this week was certainly a lack of exercise. I'll have to work on it.
I managed to prepare 4 bentos for the first week, more than I expected!
I have to follow a gluten-free diet so, at lunch, I cannot have sandwiches at the bar with my collegues, I have to bring my own lunch and usually eat it in the small office kitchen (we have a microwave available). I used to have leftovers from dinner - pasta or rice - and, when very lazy, a piece of cheese with gluten-free crackers and some green salad, but it is not such an appealing and filling lunch. Preparing this 1st week bentos, I managed to have, everyday, a well-balanced lunch (more than what I usually eat!) and save 5-10 minutes in the morning while preparing the bento.
One of my goals was to use leftovers and not to waste food, but I had no leftovers or staple food to use for the very first bento, so it took a little time to prepare and I was not very satisfied with it, but in the following days things got a little better as I decided to use some chicken I had previously frozen (not for the challenge!) as well as the broccoli and smoked salmon available at home. I had to resist the temptation to go out and buy something 'special' for the challenge: these first bentos look a little bit 'boring', but at least I used things that needed to be eaten and that otherwise I would have wasted.
One other goal was to use the Bento Challenge to quit eating junk food: preparing a rich bento lunch to resist to pre-dinner temptations! It worked...it worked too well, I must say! The 900 ml container turned out to be a little too much for me, so, for week 2 of the Bento Challenge, I' will use slightly smaller bentobako!
here the pictures (in the bento pool on flickr I'm maruchan2008)
I'm pretty happy. I made bentos four out of five days last week, and the fifth was on pupose as the cafeteria at work has this delicious fish dish every other Thursday (though when it came to it, I had soup instead, as I wasn't all that hungry...).
I also cooked enough rice for friday's curry to freeze 5 portions for future bentos and also bought a roast chicken with a short expiry date and stripped it of meat which I divided into portions and froze. So planning-wise I'm getting better.
I have found I need to do most of the work the evening before, though. Some cutting of salad and vegetables in the morning is fine, but there is no way I will start actually cooking at that time of day.
Ok, I'm late. I'm sure that's alright, right?
This first week went really well--better than I expected! I got all my bento made and even did some of my working out goal stuff. I got more in the food prep grove, and I've relearned to love my freezer. I even got inspired to freeze some fresh produce from a big box of it so that I could skip some prep work later.
My bento are all over at my blog, and I didn't really do a formal "wrap up" but they are listed at that location.
In addition to the other goals for this week, I'm going to add:
*take photos and upload at home, not off cell phone (at least one time)
*keep momentum going with inspirational readings off the forums.
On Tuesday, Jan. 13, I made two bentos, one for me and one for my boyfriend. Mine was called "Green and Orange bento" and his was a "ninja lunch". (His friends at work always ask about his "ninja lunch" and he puts it someplace where everyone can see it. They ask all day about it and what is in it.)
I ate my mini babybel, bacon and laughing cow first for breakfast. The bacon bits were really tasty and packed a big flavor punch even though it was only one teaspoon.
I ate the chicken and peppers around 11 am before I went to the gym.
I seem to end up eating the bento for a mid-morning snack and then lunch, sort of grazing in mini-meals all day.
My boyfriend really liked his food, but it was too much for him. I wondered about that when I packed it. He said the hash brown divider broke up and he broke it up into his food. I was hoping the freshness of the broccoli would break up the potato-ey-ness of the rest of the food. I didn't mean to use so many potatoes.
The second bento was the "I am trying harder" bento on my flickr page. I had not tasted the Quizno's black angus sandwich beforehand and I did not like it. I only ate one half of it. The sweetness of the bread didn't go well with the meat flavor and the sauce on the sandwich. The yogurt did not look good, but it tasted good. The sprinkles had dissolved and so did the honey and it just looked like a syrupy rainbow mess. I never ate the almonds and cherries because it didn't seem appetizing to me. The almonds were a bit "off" even though they were not expired.
I only ate out once during the week that week with the Quizno's sandwich and it was 2.5 meals for me and my son (one meal for me, one for him and then a second for me the second day). Even though I didn't like his sandwich, with a buy-one get one free sandwich I received from their e-mail list, it was a good deal. (I have no affiliation with Quizno's.)
On Tuesday, January 13, I made and posted:
"Green and Orange" bento and "Ninja lunch"
• Ate mini babybel, bacon and laughing cow first for breakfast
• Then ate chicken and peppers before gym @ 11 am
• I tend to graze if I pack a Mr. Bento. I also forget what's in there. I think I need to write myself a post-it because I make the containers warm when I open them too much.
For my boyfriend's "Ninja lunch" (this is what his co-workers call it)
• Too much food for him
• Hash brown disintegrated, but he mixed it in
• I think it was too much potatoes
For the "I am trying harder" bento
• Did not like Quizno's sandwich; the bread is sweet and so is the sauce
• Didn't eat cherries and almonds
• Yogurt didn't look good, but tasted good
Tues Jan 13 "Green and Orange" bento and "Ninja lunch" (flickr link below)
• Ate mini babybel, bacon and laughing cow first for breakfast

For my boyfriend's "Ninja lunch" (this is what his co-workers call it)
• Too much food
• Hash brown disintegrated, but he mixed it in
• I think it was too much potatoes
For the "I am trying harder" bento later in the week
• Did not like Quizno's sandwich; the bread is sweet and so is the sauce
• Didn't eat cherries and almonds
• Yogurt didn't look good, but tasted good
General observation: I prefer to use the Lock & Lock for more artistic flexibility. The Mr. Bento is like packing 4 little bentos and is harder for me.
I am enjoying this very much, Maki. Thank you for doing this.
Sorry I posted more than once. I thought my posts didn't go through because I wasn't logged in. Duh!
I know I am a bit late on posting this but, I have been pretty busy/tired so I am cutting myself some slack...
I did exactly what I wanted to do this week as far as the bentos went. I packed lunch all 5 five days as usual [I am just too thrifty to eat out every day]. I had a lot more variety than usual, which was enjoyable. All the guys at work are starting to notice the nice little lunches I make for myself, starting out with teasing but moving more towards envy [I work with almost all men who eat out every day, so home cooking probably looks pretty good to them].
I did not meet my exercise goal for the week I only walked to public transit twice, which was really bad [no more dragging butt in morning, I must wake up a bit earlier]
So my report, comes a bit late, and the post on my blog will have one week of delay, as I usually only surf on the net on week-ends.
I managed to prepare five bentos (each time in two exemplar as we are two bento eaters at home). I didn't really manage to stick to plan as I'm not used to that stuff. I have to improve the plans I make ahead, because this one was unstickable, I had nothing left for my last bento! Geez!
The meals were differents than bentos but somehow, the bentos were really similar, with only a new item each time. It took me a bit too much of time each evening, without having one cute bento.
So my goals next week will be to manage a better planning, and continue bentoing. Maybe a bit of cute bento to cheer me up!
So here are my bentos:
Pear, beetroot cupcake, roasti of kohlrabi and potato, carrot version of the vegetarian sushi.
Beetroot cupcake,, beetroot quinoa bites, carrot version of the vegetarian sushi, , lentils and pumpkin seeds cupcake, Polish cabbage and apple salad.
Beetroot cupcake, broccoli and cabage burgers, beetroot quinoa bites, carrot version of the vegetarian sushi, , lentils and pumpkin seeds cupcake, grated carrot.
Rice, chocolate cupcake, spicy tomato sauce and cabbage, broccoli and cabage burgers, beetroot quinoa bites, lentils and pumpkin seeds cupcake.
Bento with empty fridge :
egg, sandwich with vegetable pâté, cabbage and citrus salad, beetroot cupcake, kiwi.
Looking at my goals from the Flickr resolution page:
1. Kept up with the bento lunches 3x the first week
2. Ate lower on the food chain
3. Continued reduction in food waste by using left overs
4. Saved Money with three lunches from home
5. Kept consistent with for pay weight loss program (with initials of WW) and lost 3 pounds this week.
I need to pre-plan more as this week is turning into a raid on the freezer in the morning for last minute foods with the only fresh things being carrots, apples and hummus on the side.
My report is very, very late! I was at the MIT Puzzle Hunt last weekend, so I was busy until late Sunday, then came home with what our team has affectionately named "Hunt Plague," so I've been sick all week. I'm just getting around to making rice for this week *this morning*. *eep*
Anyway, I did manage one little bento for myself last week.
Then, for the puzzle hunt, I made 3 bento for myself and 3 for my husband, so that we wouldn't spend so much money (and calories!) on junk food and unhealthy group food (pizza, chinese, etc.)
This week's highlights:
Off to look at the week 2 challenge! I'm making a bento for myself today, and 2 for my husband and I tomorrow. Hopefully by next week I'll be set to make more bento in the morning like I'm s'posed to.
Everyone is doing great! I'm looking forward to the next few weeks.

ST. LOUIS, Mo. (KSDK) - Trying to think of an "outside the box" gift for Valentine's Day? The Saint Louis Zoo has a suggestion: adopt an adorable fox!
The Saint Louis Zoo is promoting fennec fox adoption for Valentine's Day. For $40, including shipping and handling, the zoo will deliver an adoption package to your valentine anywhere in the continental United States. Proceeds will go directly toward the care and feeding of the fennec foxes at the zoo.
The adoption package includes a plush fennec fox (while supplies last), a valentine card from you, a pair of tickets to the Emerson Children's Zoo, a personalized adoption certificate, color photo and fact sheet, a car decal, your name on the Zoo Parents Donor Wall and zoo website for one year, and an invitation to the Zoo Parents Picnic.
You can adopt a fennec fox by either calling 314-646-4771, ordering online at www.stlzoo.org, or by visiting a Welcome Desk at the zoo. Online and phone orders must be made by February 4 to ensure a Valentine's Day delivery. Walk-in orders made at the Welcome Desk can be made through February 14.
The fennec fox is native to the North African desert. It sleeps underground during the hot day and hunts at night when it's cooler. It's oversized ears help keep the little fox cool, track its prey and listen for danger.

I would like to start by saying that I was very pleased with your products and service. But it was Dawn who made it all worth while. Without her service all of this would not have been possible.

Teen Face: Madison Bradshaw
By MARTIN ESPINOZA THE PRESS DEMOCRAT For high-achieving students as accomplished as Montgomery High School's Madison Bradshaw, picking the right college means weighing a number of priorities, including campus prestige and academic rigor. But for Bradshaw, a 4.85 GPA student who is first in her class of 434, finding a campus near a horse stable was one of the most important requirements.

JRequest automatically takes into account the setting of magic_quotes_gpc and adjusts accordingly. If developers are using JRequest to request input then the actual value of the setting doesn't matter. If developers aren't using it then they will have to take the setting of magic_quotes_gpc into account.
Magic Quotes Off there is an "increased" risk of SQL Injections due to poorly written queries not being safely escaped in extensions hence the general PHP and JTS recommendation that Magic Quotes be ON by default (although in the past PHP has left them disabled in the default distribution) for a more secure environment.
This setting is now basically irrelevant (can be On or Off) due to the way that Joomla! has been written to overcome the problem of poorly written queries.
The setting is now deprecated and has actually been removed in later PHP releases anyway, hence developers of older PHP applications will need to complete a code review for compliance, and safety, of which has already been completed by Joomla! quite some time ago and the issue was resolved with JRequest.
In the past, there has been much discussion regarding the performance implications of this setting, in general from my testing and experience, it was negligible at worst and unnoticed at best, unless the queries were very very large, but on the whole the trade-off of improved security against SQL Injections far outweighs any discussions surrounding performance.

Only your left ear rings?
Thanks for all the replies! I hope I don't get a reaction. I also hope that contrast stuff doesn't have negative long term affects on the body (cancer!). Here's where the getting of unneeded med testing can create future problems. You alluded to your Doc giving you this 2nd MRI because you pressed for it so, in my humble opinion, this would be a medically unnecessary test. And, now even before the testing you are perceiving potential future health concerns from the contrast dye. This is how HA operates. This is how we get cemented into fear cycles. Do you guys think that since I had an mri without contrast in November that I should be fine and no tumor should show up?99% certain you will be fine and no tumor will show up. Nothing is 100% really....except that HA peeps won't really find lasting peace until they move away from medical intervention, at some point, after being told we are overall OK - healthy:)
If you are allergic to shellfish let them know. If not you should be all good. Sometimes you can get a little lightheaded or feel some nausea but it's normal and not dangerous. He did say a few has vomited from the experience but that to is not abnormal and is still seldom. I felt zero effects from it except the warming.

The rifle or country rifle is a basic lever-action repeater rifle featured in Grand Theft Auto: San Andreas, taking the form of a Marlin Model 336. Hitting the aim button with this won't invoke an auto-target reticule, but instead skips straight to a free-aim mode. Given its lack of a lock-on feature and slow reloading, one might think it is rather pointless to use. However, with a per-bullet damage rate behind only to the sniper rifle, minigun, and desert eagle (at Gangster level and up), it does earn its keep in the hands of a decent marksman.
In The Truth's mission Body Harvest, Carl Johnson needs to rob a Combine Harvester from The Farm, just north of The Truth's farm in Leafy Hollow. The survivalists will start shooting Carl with rifles and attacking with shovels.
- Mulholland, Los Santos - Near a pool of a house west of the Mulholland Safehouse.
- Back o' Beyond, Flint County - On a rock formation.
- Foster Valley, San Fierro - Near the southwest corner of Corvin Stadium. However it is unreachable as the rifle spawns behind the Corvin Stadium walls. See picture below.
- Available to buy at any Ammu-Nation store for $1,000 upon completion of Body Harvest.
- The Rifle has three weapon skills defined in the game's files, however only one is used in the game. However if you use the "Max Weapon Stats", a notification will say "Rifle - Hitman level reached."
- Many players had mistaken this rifle as an air rifle rather than firearm.
- The rifle lacks the cocking animation. Instead, a cocking sound is played and the shooter just stands still until it's ready to fire again. And to add it up, no shells are ejected in each "cock".
- This is the only long-range rifle in the entire series to be non-scoped.
- In GTA San Andreas there is a glitch where if you press the aim button and then enter a motorcycle, the close-up aim view stays on, and the gray reticle stays in place in the middle of the screen. Exiting the motorcycle makes the view go back to normal.
- In the game's internal files, the Rifle is called as "cuntgun". It may be a sexual joke, which is part of Rockstar's tradition or a possible misspelling.

NASA announced the discovery of Neptune's 14th moon Monday. The Hubble Space Telescope captured the moon as a white dot in photos of Neptune on the outskirts of our solar system.
The new moon—Neptune's tiniest at just 12 miles across—is designated S/2004 N 1.
The SETI Institute's Mark Showalter of Mountain View, Calif., made the discovery. He was studying the segments of rings around Neptune when the white dot popped out, 65,400 miles from Neptune. He tracked its movement in more than 150 pictures taken from 2004 to 2009.
The considerably bigger gas giant Jupiter has four times as many moons, with 67.

I recommend getting the xbi2 dongle gateway adapter and plugging it into the 3.5mm jack so you'll have volume control. I run a 3.5mm cord from my iphone to GMRS X1 and it works great. I plan on trying the XBi2 Dongle gateway adapter. See my review on the GMRS X1 for more details.
