Canada breaks U.S. hearts again in Olympic women's hockey
Just as in two of the past three Winter Olympics, the United States fell to Canada in the gold-medal game.
The scene has become all too familiar and increasingly painful for the U.S. women's Olympic hockey team: Their bitterest rivals, the Canadians, the thorn in their Olympic side, spilling off the bench and erupting with unbridled joy on the ice after a gold medal-winning goal. And then, those happy players belting out O Canada as their maple leaf flag rises to the arena rafters, with the American flag hanging just below it to the left.
It happened in Salt Lake City. It happened in Vancouver.
And, shockingly, it was the same story Thursday night at the Bolshoy Ice Dome. Canada left U.S. players sobbing yet again after a 3-2 overtime win in which the Canadians pulled off a furious two-goal comeback in the final 3 1/2 minutes of regulation to force extra time.
It was the same Canadian player, forward Marie-Philip Poulin, who crushed the Americans' dreams this time around. Four years ago in Vancouver, as an 18-year-old rookie, Poulin scored two goals in the span of three minutes to lead Canada to a 2-0 victory. On Thursday, Poulin scored the equalizer with 54.6 seconds remaining in regulation, and then the game-winner on a power-play goal eight minutes into overtime.
"I couldn't believe it tonight,'' Poulin said. "It's the best feeling ever.''
Canadian coach Kevin Dineen, the former Florida Panthers coach, said of Poulin: "She doesn't speak a lot but I always kind of catch her eyes, and there's something in her eyes that spells 'big-game player' and obviously she showed that in Vancouver and I think she put a major stamp on that today."
Another Canadian party on ice. Another rendition of O Canada. The U.S. players, tough as nails during the game, tried to keep their composure afterward. They tried to find satisfaction in a silver medal. But at that moment, it just hurt too much. And so, the tears flowed.
Nobody on the U.S. team could have been as disappointed as former captain Julie Chu, 31, in her fourth Olympics and still seeking her first gold medal. She told reporters this week that she began thinking about Sochi the moment the Canadians started celebrating their win in Vancouver. That memory drove her through every practice and game the past four years.
"We've been working really hard for four years for this day, so hopefully people don't see us as being a little disappointed in the moment or that we don't appreciate being Olympians and don't appreciate the silver medals around our necks because we absolutely do,'' Chu said. "But as competitors, you want to be the best in the world. So, it's going to take a little time.''
It was Chu who pulled her teammates together right after the game and gave them a little pep talk.
"The big thing I said is to keep their heads up high,'' she said. "There's nothing to be ashamed of. Be proud of the way we played. Be proud of the team that we are.''
Team captain Meghan Duggan scored the first U.S. goal in the first period on a wrist shot that found the upper right corner from 25 feet out. She started out OK in her post-game interview. Then, she lost it.
"I'm proud of the fight we put up the whole game,'' she said. "Proud to wear this jersey win or lose, but it's not the result we wanted [breaking down]. At that moment they were celebrating, I was thinking about the journey. I just looked at my teammates and everything we've been through this year, and all the years before, and you stay proud of your team. You don't focus on the other team. You just move forward.''
This time was going to be different, the U.S. women thought, and so did just about everybody else watching Team USA holding a 2-0 lead with 3:30 to go in a high-flying game that lived up to its billing.
But then, in the span of 3 1/2 minutes, everything changed. Canada's Brianne Jenner's shot deflected off the leg of U.S. defender Kacey Bellamy and went in. A long-range open-net shot by U.S. center Kelli Stack bounced off the left post. Had it been an inch to the right, the U.S. team surely would have won gold. Alex Carpenter had given the United States a 2-0 lead early in the third on a power-play goal off a cross-ice pass from Hillary Knight.
The overtime was intense and included a pair of questionable calls that surely will be debated in the days to come.
Katey Stone, coach of the U.S. team, had warned her players in the days leading up to Thursday's game that "this is not for the faint of heart.''
She wasn't kidding.
Asked what she told her players in the locker room after, Stone said: "There really isn't much to say to take away the sting."

Refugees from Beach cat house looking for a fresh start: The Fixer
Upwards of 20 rescued cats that are in good health and definitely not feral are awaiting adoption.
|Report an Error
Share via Email
Wanted: Loving homes for survivors of the Beach cat house.
The kitties have been spayed or neutered, implanted with microchips, had their shots, and are in relatively good health, contrary to earlier reports that they were all in bad shape.
They're not feral, but many are timid and best suited to a quiet home, says Denise Harkins of the Feral Cat Recovery Centre, which has so far taken 16 of the 50 or so cats removed from the Beech Ave. house.
We were surfing SeeClickFix this week when we found a report posted by Harkins, whom we've dealt with before on cats, saying she's trying to find homes for them.
The Kingston Rd. Animal Hospital took some kittens and held a fundraiser to help pay their recovery costs, but as more cats were trapped, the city asked the Toronto Feral Cat Coalition for help, said Harkins.
"We normally don't do this," she said, stressing that most of their work is with feral cats. "I trap about 300 cats a year, and we get them fixed and put them back where we found them.
"But we can't do this with these cats. There are too many, they came from a house where they can't go back, and it is too political.
"If we didn't take them, they'd likely be euthanized," said Harkins, adding that more are on their way to the recovery centre.
The city provides the coalition with an industrial unit on Progress Ave., where the recovery centre is located, and helps pay the operating costs, so it was an offer they couldn't refuse, she said.
Many of the Beach cats that ended up at the recovery centre were not sick and ridden with parasites, as described in some news reports, but were thin and underfed, said Harkins.
Toronto Animal Services took care of fixing and inoculating them before they were turned over to the coalition, she said, adding that a few have colds but are otherwise ready for adoption.
"Most of them are young cats that are shy but would make lovely companions for the right family or person."
Anyone interested in adopting a cat can arrange to see them by emailing Harkins at email@example.com . If you can't send an email, call 416-439-8770 and leave a message.
And the coalition can always use donations to help pay for the good work it does in trying to keep the feral cat population under control.

Harper set to name 18 to Senate
Stephen Harper plans to fill every empty Senate seat by the end of the year to kill any chance of a Liberal-NDP coalition government filling the vacancies next year, the Star has learned.

Share via Email
OTTAWA–Stephen Harper plans to fill every empty Senate seat by the end of the year to kill any chance of a Liberal-NDP coalition government filling the vacancies next year, the Star has learned.
The Prime Minister plans a wave of appointments in the coming weeks to tilt the balance more in favour of the Conservatives in the Liberal-dominated upper chamber, a government source said last night.
"The government has the intention of naming senators by a government that is legitimately elected by the people," the official said, taking a swipe at the coalition that is threatening to topple the Conservatives.
The move is sure to spark howls of protest from opposition parties arguing that Harper, who prorogued the House rather than be defeated by a united opposition, has no right to make such patronage appointments during this time.
However, Governor General Michaëlle Jean placed no restrictions on Harper's ability to govern when she granted his request last week to discontinue parliamentary proceedings.
That leaves him free to stack the Senate with his own nominees.
"It's going to be people who are supportive of the elected government of Canada," the official said. "The government will probably proceed with filling every vacancy."
There are currently 18 vacancies in the 105-seat Senate.
Harper, who in the recent election campaign promised either to reform Senate by capping terms at eight years, or to abolish the body altogether, has resisted filling the vacancies.
In its first mandate, his government unsuccessfully sought to cap Senate terms and introduce "consultation" in provinces to fill Senate vacancies – a first step to electing senators.
The prime minister names senators and they serve until age 75. Thanks to a run of Liberal prime ministers, Liberals have the majority (58) compared with the Conservatives (20). Other seats are held by Independents and senators of other party affiliations.
The official, who spoke on background last night, said the move was prompted by the creation of the Liberal-NDP coalition that is now threatening to defeat Harper's minority Conservatives after Parliament returns Jan. 26.
"Partly this is because of the coalition musing that they would appoint people from the Bloc or the Green party," the source said.
While there has been no talk of Bloc senators being appointed, Green Leader Elizabeth May did say that she had discussed a Senate appointment with Stéphane Dion, who was Liberal leader until yesterday.
But with newly crowned Liberal Leader Michael Ignatieff holding firm to the coalition, it appears Harper has decided to act now.
"There's no clear indication Mr. Ignatieff wants to abandon the coalition and work with the government preparing a budget," the source said.
The official refused to say when the appointments would happen, only that they would happen by year's end, "possibly before the holidays."

The educational objective of the Doctor of Pharmacy (PharmD) degree program at Chapman University School of Pharmacy is to prepare students for the practice of pharmacy. Students admitted to, as well as those continuing in the PharmD program, must have the intellectual, emotional, and physical abilities, with reasonable accommodations provided to those with disabilities, to acquire the knowledge, behaviors, clinical and technical skills to successfully complete the curriculum in preparation for licensure as a practicing pharmacist. Further, the safety of the patient, on whom the professional education process is primarily focused, must be ensured as the final and ultimate consideration. Therefore, it is essential for competent patient care to require students to meet minimum technical standards in their pharmacy education.
The five standards listed below describe the essential functions students must demonstrate in order to fulfill the requirements of a pharmacy education, and thus, are prerequisites for entrance to, continuation in, and graduation from the School of Pharmacy. The School of Pharmacy will consider for admission any applicant who demonstrates the ability to perform or to learn to perform the skills listed in this document. If you feel you are unable to meet these technical standards you are encouraged prior to application to discuss your disability with the Associate Dean of Student and Academic Affairs at in order to determine whether or not reasonable accommodations can be made. Students pursuing the academic program who lack the ability to appropriately comply with these standards and who do not seek accommodations may place themselves in academic jeopardy.
A candidate for the PharmD degree must meet or exceed the required aptitude, abilities, and skills, in the following areas:
I. Observation: Candidates must be able to observe demonstrations and experiments in the basic and pharmaceutical sciences. Candidates must be able to accurately observe a patient's condition, must be able to obtain a history and perform appropriate assessments and to correctly integrate the information derived from these observations to develop and implement an accurate and therapeutically appropriate plan. They must be able to prepare medications for dispensing to patients and observe the activities of technical staff operating under their supervision in accordance with State law. These skills require the functional use of vision, verbal, hearing and somatic sensations.
II. Communication: Candidates must be able to communicate with, understand, and observe patients in a clinical setting. They must be able to record information accurately and clearly, communicate fluently in and understand the English language, and communicate effectively and sensitively with patients. Candidates must also be able to communicate effectively with other members of the healthcare team in oral and written form, and in patient care settings in which decisions based upon those communications may be made rapidly. They must be able to effectively communicate with and supervise technical support staff.
III. Motor function: Candidates must possess the motor function sufficient to direct and supervise the accurate compounding and preparation of medications for dispensing to patients. In addition they must have the motor skills to teach medication administration, including the monitoring and counseling of patients regarding their medication. They must be able to use computer-based information systems. They must adhere to universal precaution measures and meet safety standards applicable to inpatient and outpatient settings and other clinical activities.
IV. Intellectual: Candidates must have effective and efficient learning techniques and habits that allow mastery of the pharmacy curriculum. They must be able to learn through a variety of modalities including, but not limited to, classroom instruction, small group activities, individual study, preparation and presentation of reports, and use of computer technology. They must be able to memorize, measure, calculate, reason, analyze, synthesize and apply information and concepts. They must also be able to comprehend spatial relationships and three-dimensional models.
V. Behavioral and social attributes: Candidates must demonstrate the maturity and emotional stability required for full use of their intellectual abilities. They must accept responsibility for learning, exercising sound judgment, and promptly completing all responsibilities attendant to the care of patients. Candidates must understand the legal and ethical aspects of the practice of pharmacy and function within the guidelines established by the law and by the ethical standards of the pharmacy profession. They must be able to relate to patients and their families, colleagues, and other members of the healthcare team with courtesy, maturity, and respect for the dignity of individuals. This requires that they place the welfare of their patients foremost, and demonstrate honesty, integrity, dedication, compassion and nondiscrimination in the care of their patients. They must, at all times, demonstrate the emotional stability to be able to exercise sound judgment, and carry out prompt completion of all of the responsibilities attendant to the care of their patients in a sensitive and effective manner. This sensitivity includes self-examination of personal attitudes, perceptions, and stereotypes in order to avoid potential negative impacts on relationships and patient care. Candidates must be able to adapt to changing environments, display flexibility and professional responsibility to their patients, and to learn to function in an environment of uncertainty, in which changes may occur rapidly and without warning. All of these personal qualities will be assessed during the admissions and educational process. Candidates must be able to contribute to collaborative, constructive learning environments; accept constructive feedback from others; and take personal responsibility for making appropriate positive changes.

I worked at Svam InternationalPros
Working in the US opens a new market for an IT professional. This market is much better than the Mexican industry (at least nowadays). Svam offers the possibility for you to move to the US and start in a good market. Salary is enough for bachelors to survive the time you work with them and you'll get hosting for some days. This company finds potential clients for you and manages interviews (most remote, some in person) and pays your one way bus, train, or airplane (if far) to your new project. Having experience in the US is a great professional growth and a great experience.Cons
This company is not a serious IT option for more than some months. I found inconsistencies on their management and on what they promise and what they actually do. They promised me a salary since the day I arrive, however they didn't mention how much they would pay (you suppose it's the same salary you were promised, that didn't happen). Also they promised a house while having a project in New York. Suddenly they started charging people rent (never mentioned that before). I recommend that, once you are settled and had some experience, move to a good company or as a consultant with the real US salaries.Advice to ManagementAdvice
Please be more specific on what you offer as employer. I suggest to the management to focus a little bit more on employees, practically you are an HR company for most employees. Also I would recommend less middle vendors, that way you can offer competitive pay to consultants.RecommendsNeutral Outlook

the only people to blame for children being lured in by paedos are the parents, it goes to show that the children were not disciplined by the parents, and lack self control to run off with stranges that hand out promises of candy and funny stories.
Anyone else remember these ads from... oh, I don't know, ten years ago or so? About the kids who wouldn't do things like give directions to adults, open the door to people they don't know, and never said that their parents weren't home on the phone? I still live by that advice. Shows how good TV is. XD
even women pedos exist you know. what about that 30 year ol' teach who had regular screw sessions with her 14 year old student??

Sew Simple: How To Make A Pillow From Two Cloth Napkins
Duuuuude. I got back on the proverbial sewing machine horse. What? You haven't heard that expression. Whatever. The point is: Sue the Napkin is now Sue the Pillow! Or more accurately Sue The Pillows (yup, I made two of them).
Here are my materials:
- Four Sue The Napkins (I originally got ten when we found them on clearance at Crate & Barrel, but I picked up four more so I could make two pillows using four of them and still have ten leftover to use as dinner napkins).
- Oh Brother (my
trustysewing machine, more on him here)
- Two old pillows to use as the "inside" of my new Sue pillow covers
- A needle and some brown thread to sew one edge of the pillow shut by hand (that way I can easily seam rip that last portion to free the pillow inside and make a different cover down the line if I'd like).
I'll spare you every detail, but I basically just stacked two napkins on top of each other with the good printed side touching (and the back of the fabric showing on the top and the bottom of the stack) and used my sewing machine to sew three of the four sides completely shut while it was all inside out like that. I even turned the corner and did about an inch or two on each end of the remaining fourth side while they were still inside out on the machine. Then I removed the napkins and turned them right side in, stuffed a pillow inside my little napkin envelope (which now had the printed side facing out), and stitched the remaining expanse of about 10″ closed by hand with my brown thread (which blends in surprisingly well).
As I've
mentioned complained about before, I've ironically never had an issue with sewing by hand (it's like painting by hand or demo-ing by hand, both of which I can do – I only have issues when I rely on a maniacal robot sewing machine). But as much as I whine about the ol' new sewing machine, it did me right for my little pillow party. Am I a professional seamstress? No. Can I sew three straight lines without ending up with a birdsnest-looking-pile-o'-thread? I did this time. Strike up the band! Cue the fireworks!
And on the surprisingly-not-as-annoying-as-I-thought-it-would-be side of things, it only took me about four commercial breaks during Modern Family to whip up both pillows (so maybe about 12 minutes total? I was watching last week's episode by the way, so don't ruin this week's for me).
Then I just stitched them closed during Bethenny Ever After (this took me much longer than it should have because I kept stopping to stare at the screen and guffaw at my imaginary BFF). But all in all, they look
a lot less demented much better than I expected. Actually – dare I say it? – like real pillows.
Oh and as pretty as the pillows look when they're all fluffed and photographed for the blog, more often than not they really look like this. Because Burger makes it a personal goal of his to squish every pillow in the house into an ugly little blob. But he's cute so we deal with it.
Sometimes he even stops to nuzzle Sue, as if to say "you're my favorite napkin-turned-pillow too." It's always nice to get pillow validation from an eight pound chihuahua.
So that's the tale of Sue The Pillow(s). Have you guys sewn any napkin pillows lately? Did you die over the whole Gloria hair-rings/earrings thing on Modern Family last week? Me too. Can't wait to watch this week's episode tonight.

Congratulations on conquering the sewing machine and getting great looking pillows too.
Love the whole napkins as pillow covers idea. I followed Kate's no sew instructions from Centsational Girl to make some removable pillow covers and I love them! Great job making Sue a legit pillow!
Hmmmm…..now that I have typed the word legit, I have MC Hammer's 2 Legit 2 Quit stuck in my head. :-/
I was curious if you chose to close up the seam on the bottom as opposed to making the pillow close in the back more like a pillow sham for any particular reason?
A sham style seems easier, well for me, no sewing experience at all. But it will leave a visible seam causing the pillows to be somewhat "one-sided" when placed on the couch.
Side note: A friend turned my on to your site and I'm totally addicted. In the last month we've painted our bedroom, refinished the front door and kick plate, turned antique bronze door knobs into oil-rubbed bronze….etc. It's been DIY non-stop at my house. Thank you so much for the inspiration and the addiction! lol.
Hah! I just posted about the sham-side pillow covers. I do all mine that way, and it is SO easy. :)
Please do tell – how do you turn antique bronze door knobs into oil-rubbed bronze? And how's it holding up?
It's funny you call your machine a "he". In Portuguese, it's a she :) Nice hand stitches by the way.
They look great! Congrats on your victory over the sewing machine :)
The pillows look great. My grandmother was a seamstress for her career, yet somehow that didn't get passed down to my mom and I. In high school sewing class I couldn't even thread the machine.
And yes, as soon as Mitchell nodded right along approving hair rings I knew he had no idea what Gloria had said and was going to freak out. Loved the end too when Cam went back to the forgotten plot line of photographing Lily as famous singers.
now you might want to pick up some of these from Crate and Barrel to further accent your dining room with more "Sue-ness"! (is it bad that the first thing I thought of when I saw this design was Sue the Napkin?!)
This is so funny you published this link today. I had to go back in your previous posts to see who "sue " was. We have a Sue too, we call her "Natasha" and her twin sister "Natalia"–because two pillows need two names and she is a sexy little napkin pillow. She actually is the inspiration for our whole house–actually our one bedroom apartment… aka our tin can. I found her at World market and fell in love with her silver blues and glorious corals.
Sue and her sister-wife pillow look great!! They do look professionaly-made. ;)
Modern Family was a rerun last night! Boo :(
They look great! And trust me, even sewing three straight lines was a HUGE challenge for me when I started sewing!
Just a little tip on the pillows: Instead of sewing them completely shut, If you sew it on all four sides with the machine, you can leave a slit in the back to take the pillow in and out for washing without having to rip seams. Think like the back of a pillow sham. It will require a few more seams to "hem" the edges of the slit, but all in all, it is very convenient to be able to quickly take the covers off when needed!
Great job, once again!
I did the same thing with napkins a few weeks ago! I looked for months for pillows that were cheap and had the moroccan look. They are so expensive! I was walking through Target, and a Dwell studio tablecloth and napkin set was calling my name! My husband thought I was nuts and I was like, "If Katie Bower can make pillows out of a place mat, I can make pillows out of this!" They turned out perfect and yours did too!!
Your pillows look great!!! I too have a love/hate relationship with my sewing machine but I do find it gets better (easier) each time. You may already know this (or not need to know since you are so good at sewing by hand) but I love the envelope pillow (a.k.a. pillow sham) No sewing by hand required and no ripping out stitching for changing out pillow inserts. http://sewing.about.com/od/freeprojects/ht/envelopebkpill.htm Hope this is helpful!!
Nice job…see, you can SEW!!! I like Sue in any form she is in…but the pillows look great.
Happy SUE PILLOWS!
Modern Family was a repeat last night!! :( (All the shows except Cougar Town were repeats)
Those are fantastic Sherry! I too started using my mom's sewing machine when I was a child, luckily I never damaged it though. Learing how to use a darn sewing machine is a loooooong process that can only happen with LOTS of practice, so you go girl for keeping on keeping on!!!
Here are some curtains I sewed back in February:
The pillows look great! I haven't tried to make a pillow from napkins but I might have to give it a whirl.
I haven't watched last weeks episode of Modern Family yet. It's killing me! My hubby and I watch together and he's been out of town so it's sitting on the DVR taunting me!
No napkin sewing here, although I did just stuff a placement with batting to make a pillow. No sewing machine required on that, just a bit of hand stitching.
This gives me hope because I am deathly afraid of my sewing machine, but I have quite literally a stock pile of fabric and patterns that I want to try. Last night's episode was a re-run, but it was probably one of the best… the one where the kids walk in on Phil and Claire doing it. "I'm 80 percent sure you're hitting on me" I die laughing. Cougartown afterwards is worth a watch too if you don't already watch it. What is Bethanny ever after?
haha love that Bethenny Frankel is your imaginary BFF. Not to sound uber stalkerish, but I'm pretty sure that between you and Katie Bower I have two imaginary BFFs haha. Okay you just can't say that without sounding crazy… Love the napkin pillow and how you went from not being able to work a sewing machine to making two awesome pillows and that great banner for Clara's birthday. You rock!
haha….agreed! My hubby definitely knows who Sherry is….I call you my "blogger buddy". Too funny!
Yea boo on a rerun and I fell asleep last week and missed half of it…so annoying. Of course I was wide awake for the re-run. IT SENDED…IT SENDED…PLEASE COME BACK…
Bethenny is my TV BFF too. My boyfriend and I enjoy watching her antics and crazy funny relationships with everyone. I get no laundry folded or dusting done when I'm staring deep into Bravo's amazing TV programming, lol.
I believe that you guys are starting a color revolution! I work in a hospital so I see LOTS of people all day long and I swear I have seen numerous blouses with sue the napkin and can I just say..love sue the napkin…hate sue the shirt!
Hooray! Sue is official! I'm so happy for her :). And the B-Man.
These are great. My dogs do that exact same thing to every pillow in the house! It makes me so mad!

We've never been the type of ladies who can wear lipstick comfortably day in and day out (at least, not without wiping away the periodic smudges on our teeth). That's why we're borderline-obsessed with this versatile lip pencil, which combines the high-intensity pigment of a lipstick with the shine of a gloss while curing dryness. The brainchild of celebrity makeup artist Mally Roncal, it gives the subtle illusion of fuller lips. Once it's on, we can forget that we're wearing it at all—unless we pass a mirror, of course.
I ordered this and the Mally liquid lipstick. The liquid didn't work for me but this product is amazing. It has good coverage for a pencil and it stays in place well. Non drying too, which is a big problem I've had with other products.
I ordered Fierce and loved the color.
I did not try this product out until a few months after I got it, WHAT A MISTAKE! I have been missing out on kissable looking lips that glimmer without being overwhelming. I am not a big lipstick person, since I constantly touch my face and smear lipstick all over the place. This lip stick is great, doesn't budge, gives my lips moisture and a great subtle shine which makes my lips look fuller and kissable!

Kathy Griffin's Newest Palin to Pounce On? Willow, 16
You would think that after the backlash Kathy Griffin received for making fun of Bristol Palin's weight, the red-headed comedienne would have learned her lesson. Well, think again. Kathy has her eye set on a new Palin to make fun off. "I think it's Willow's year to go down," Griffin snarked to The Hollywood Reporter. "In 2011, I want to offend a new Palin."
With her being only 16, Willow would seem to be a target fraught with disadvantages, but that doesn't matter to Kathy.
"[She] genuinely can't stand any of the Palin family," a friend of Kathy's tells me. "Yet, the real reason she won't leave them alone is she loves all the headlines she gets whenever she attacks them."
What would it take to pry Kathy's claws from the Palin family? My source thinks that if people would just doggone stop caring about the Palins, then Kathy would be the first to move on and "find another victim."
Sure, Kathy does seem to change her target as often as Sarah winks to her fans, but what makes the Palin family different from the other celebrities she drills is that they're. Not. Going. Anywhere.
"No one is more surprised than Kathy that we still care about this family," an insider tells me. "For a while it was Jessica Simpson's weight, Heidi Montag's plastic surgery or 'The Real Housewives' that had us all buzzing. But they have all come and gone."
Let's face it folks, the Palins are in the news daily, and Kathy is way too smart a woman to miss an opportunity to cause trouble. So watch out Willow, sources tell me that what Kathy has planned for you will make the comments about your older sister look like poetry.

I am not a Palin supporter but I believe the Palin's have the right to say what they wish, as others do. The sad thing is that no talent Kathy can only make a living making fun of young women, teenagers, or children. It would be sad to hear someone make fun of the Obama girls; and this is the same thing.

The real news here is that someone, at one time, may have laughed at one of Kathy Griffin's "jokes". She is the least funny person in show business. I guess her claim to fame nowadays is that she's the only woman to have had more plastic surgery than Joan Rivers.
- Wednesday 05 JanuaryBy guymucci
Amen. How anyone could think this bimbo is funny is beyond me.
- Wednesday 05 JanuaryBy ettu
Plastic surgery? You have to be kidding. If you know the name of the surgeon, please publicize it so everyone can be warned to stay away. Kathys' face reflects the true character of the Libs/Progs "anything goes no matter who gets hurt" crowd. Very unfortunate. I am sure, when she was young, and it was apparent she wasn't going to be much to look at, her mother told her to develop her "personality." Kathy tried and failed.

The Rebuke of History: The Southern Agrarians and American Conservative Thought
Tracing the Agrarian tradition from its origins in the 1920s through the present day, Murphy shows how what began as a radical conservative movement eventually became, alternately, a critique of twentieth-century American liberalism, a defense of the Western tradition and Christian humanism, and a form of southern traditionalism--which could include a defense of racial segregation. Although Agrarianism failed as a practical reform movement, its intellectual influence was wide-ranging, Murphy says. This influence expanded as Ransom, Tate, and Warren gained reputations as leaders of the New Criticism. More notably, such "neo-Agrarians" as Richard M. Weaver and M. E. Bradford transformed Agrarianism into a form of social and moral traditionalism that has had a significant impact on the emerging conservative movement since World War II.

Frivolous Post
Sorry - I have no questions and my kitchen is not nearly done but I am so excited I feel like I may explode.
We went to look at the new house. I was expecting paint (Barley, thank you 2littlefishies, if you read this), I was hoping for floors but the cabinets are there as well! Without doors or drawer fronts - I hope that's not too weird to install them later.
18 more sleeps - I cannot wait.
Three things.
1. Not frivolous by any stretch.
2. Completely normal for doors and drawer fronts situation
3. What a great surprise to discover
4. It looks great!! Barley is a great color. I cannot wait to see a finished Momo7 kitchen!!
OK. That was four things. Its early. :)
Aww, thanks you guys. It's fun to share with someone.
For some reason it seems a blt dark in that picture. Well, it's not really a mystery - my camera has too many buttons that I don't understand. That doesn't stop me from pushing them.
This is the other side of the kitchen.
(thanks for the reassurance, breezygirl)
It looks wonderful! What a cheery color for a kitchen! It looks like you get morning sun (since it sounds like you took these pictures this morning); I can just imagine how pleasant it will be to be in that space on a lazy weekend morning with the sun streaming in..
I never seen cabinets hung without taking off the doors and sometimes the drawers. Lighter, easier to lift, doors aren't swinging around on you, no chance of dinging up the doors, cabinets are ganged (screwed) together through the frames in most cases so getting the doors and drawers out of the way makes them more accessible.
Very normal way to install cabinets, looks great!
I totally know what you mean Momo7. Our vanities began installation a few days ago, and I was so excited. After discussing and reviewing the details of them for months on end I finally got to walk in and see them (with paint and knobs). No longer are they floating in the cobwebs of my mind or on a CAD drawing. They are REAL! And they look better than I thought they would. I let out a big exhale.
I am now counting the hours til the kitchen cabinets and island get installed. I keep bugging my GC on which day they are coming. These moments make all the tedious moments, arguments, delays, and waiting very much worth it.
You guys are the best! I have read so many posts like this and now I'm on the receiving end - well, I just feel like I'm walking on air. I may burst into song.
The windows face east and south - I really wanted a kitchen that received a lot of natural light to compensate for all the dark, dimly lit kitchens I've had in the past.
Thank you for all the nice comments. I just agonized over the flooring decision, as well as others.
sowega - yes, that is it exactly. I can't believe it's real and I'm going to get to live there.
sanjuangirl - yep, Barley is a BM (ha ha) colour.
We love seeing pictures of progress. It is just like an appetizer- getting us salivating for the next course!
Looking beautiful so far and love the east/south orientation(we have same orientation but not quite as many windows)
Keep those pictures posting!!!

It's tempting to say what a snake-bit year this was, a year when American troops were lost abroad, a year of economic struggle and cynical politics. But it was also a year when troops came home, and people started new jobs. Steve Inskeep says it's to soon to judge 2011.

So the design ideal is to have one page with a couple different 'widgets' in this MVC app. Each 'widget' should be able to submit information back to itself and reload only itself. Simple in web forms, not so much with MVC it seems
First, we have our main page controller, nothing special
public ActionResult Index()
return View();
Next, we have our main page View. Note that I have tried both Action and RenderAction and there is no change in behavior
@Html.Action("Index", "Monitor", new { area = "Statistics" });
<div id="messages">
@Html.Action("Index", "Messages", new { area = "Data"});
@section Script {
<script src="@Url.Content("~/Scripts/jquery-1.9.1.min.js")" type="text/javascript"></script>
<script type="text/javascript">
$('#filter').click(function () {
method: 'POST',
url: '@Url.Action("Index", "Messages", new { area = "Data"})',
success: function(data){
return false;
The Index ActionResult in the Messages Controller:
public ActionResult Index()
var model = GetMessages();
return PartialView(model);
For the sake of brevity, going to skip the whole of Monitor Index View, and only give a brief version of Messages Index View
@using (Html.BeginForm("Index", "Messages", FormMethod.Post))
//Some fields to limit results are here, with style classes
<button type="submit" id="filter">Filter</button>
@foreach(var item in Model)
//Display results
Upon loading the main page, all looks good. The fields to limit results are displayed, as well as messages. I can enter something into the fields, click Filter, and am returned to the main page but! ...the fields have lost their style classes and the messages are unfiltered.
Strange, but more strange is if I again enter information in the fields and click Filter, this time I am not taken to the main page, but get only the Partial View of the Messages Index displayed and the messages are not filtered.
I can't say that the filtering not working is related to this issue or not, but the non-consistent behavior of clicking Filter is the part that bothers me. Anyone like to point out what I am doing wrong in here?

An Auckland man is among the latest victims of ATM fraud after having more than $1000 stolen from his bank account.
He was surprised when his card was declined at a supermarket and rushed home to check his bank account to find it was nearly empty.
The man's account was cleaned out by multiple withdrawals in Bulgarian currency.
Two days earlier he'd used the Kiwibank ATM outside the Highbury shopping centre and he believes a skimming device was attached to the machine to get his account details. Fraudsters can attach a skimming machine to ATM card slots in most cases to record customers' details while a tiny camera captures the PIN.
The man was reimbursed once he visited a Kiwibank branch but says it was inconvenient to be without the money for a few days.
"I have a six-month-old son and mucking around with accounts has been a pain."
Another customer was in the bank when he visited complaining about the same problem, he says.
He says he will never use an ATM again and is warning others about the risks.
He is especially concerned about older people who may not, unlike him, be able to check their accounts online.
Age Concern executive officer Janferie Bryce-Chapman encourages the elderly to visit their banks and check if they think anything is wrong.
She says a lot of older people are internet users but many over 80 do not have a computer at home and cannot afford broadband.
Age Concern has been trying to spread the message about scams, Bryce-Chapman says. "Just to make people aware it's not an honest world, unfortunately."
Kiwibank communications manager Bruce Thompson would not confirm how the money was taken from the customer's account.
ATM fraud happens to all banks and is almost impossible to stop, Thompson says.
Crime can happen very quickly, he says.
"It can happen anytime or anywhere.
"It doesn't have office hours."
He says as soon as the bank realises what has happened, it works out who has used the ATM and gets in touch with customers to let them know why their money is missing.
"People should be cautious if they are using an ATM and there's something attached to it, but also have confidence their bank will look after them."
Age Concern has organised BNZ national security and fraud co-ordinator Bronwyn Groot to host a seminar about different types of scams including online, phone, bank and credit card scams.
The talk is from 10am till noon on July 10 at the Positive Aging Centre, 7 The Strand, Takapuna.
Call Age Concern on 489 4975 or email email@example.com before July 3 to book.

Eleven-year-old Calli Gold is the quiet third child in a family of loud overachievers. In fact, the family motto is Be Gold. Calli's sister is on an ice-skating team, and her brother's a basketball star. Her parents are sure she has a hidden gift for something. They just have to figure out what it is! But Calli has flopped at everything she's tried. She sure doesn't feel like a Gold.
Until a new person enters her life. Second grader Noah Zullo might seem strange to some people, but Calli can't help liking him, and they become partners in their school's Peer Helper Program. When they create a booth for the Friendship Fair, they fill it with secrets and surprises. And as Calli and Noah work and learn together, they even surprise themselves.
Michele Weber Hurwitz's debut is an endearing and gently humorous story about the true meaning of achievement and the important things an "ordinary" kid has to offer.
MICHELE WEBER HURWITZ grew up in a suburb of Chicago and still lives in the same area with her husband and three children. She does not have a huge calendar taped to her kitchen wall but has been known, on occasion, to drive with Post-it notes stuck to the steering wheel. This is her first novel. Visit her at micheleweberhurwitz.com.

Steam oven
So I was going to get the miele sream oven but a friend who has one said its difficult to use, takes awhile for the water to heat up and has a lot of water to clean after cooking.
I didn't see that in any discussions on this board. Any one have this experience?
Does she have a steam oven, or the combination steam oven? Most of us here have combi ovens - which can be used as steam only, dry heat only or a combination of both. I very rarely use mine as steam only - and usually it is only for steaming shrimp or spinach - so I only steam for a short time and don't have much trouble in terms of clean up. Combi mode, which I use more often, has very little clean up, and the manufacturer suggests putting a solid tray ( it comes with perforated and solid trays) underneath to make it easier to clean up a mess.
I think she has a steam oven only - though I am not sure. So you don't really use it on steam mode? Or are you saying that during the cooking process it steams and bakes so there isn't as much moisture leftover?
I am thinking of one 30 inch oven, one speed oven and one steam combi --- but now I am thinking just two 30 inch ovens and a cheapo microwave. I really can't decide. Its driving me crazy.
I know my Wolf CSO Steam Oven can do steam only, or a combination. During the "combi" mode it does steam at the start along with the convection heat, and then stops the steam and some point and goes to just convection heat. I think that the Miele does it the same if I am not mistaken. There can be some residual water in the bottom after the combi cooking, but most of it is gone do to the heat of the cooking to finish up what you are cooking.
I use my Gaggenau combi-steam on steam only all the time! Mostly for vegetables, but other things too. You can poach eggs, chicken, fish, etc., with just steam. My favorite way to do chicken is combi-, so at a roasting temperature with partial steam.
As to the water experience, there are a lot of variables. You do have to pre-heat, like any oven, but only to boiling-ish temp. Any steamer will be like that.
If it's a tank model, you do have to fetch the water and dump the remaining water and the drain water. If it's plumbed (I don't know if Miele has plumbed, but mine is), if there's water in the oven from condensation, you just put on the drying mode for a short while. I rarely have to, however. But if you steam in a pot you have to fetch and dump the water too, and more of it, I think.
I think steaming in a pot of the stove is a pain in the neck. I got my combi-steam because sometimes I need an extra oven, and other times I have a lot of stuff to steam and having the plumbed steam oven makes a nasty chore really easy.
Look into the models more, and read through all the directions to get a better idea of how it works.
For years, Miele made a steam only oven, it did not have a combi feature, but a few years ago started offering combi ovens. Gaggenau is the only combi that is offered in the US that has a drain. I don't know much about speed ovens, but I would guess you would use the speed oven instead of the combi, unless you had some real desire for a combi. IMHO, a combi is worth the expense, because it is a combi - it can be used like a regular electric convection oven, but it is much smaller, so it heats up much quicker ( 5 minute preheat time is common) , and doesn't heat up my kitchen like my main gas stove. I can also use it steam only, but for me that might only be a few times a month. I use it in combi mode - although it adds moisture to the oven, at most common cooking temps - such as 300 to 400, you can't see the moisture and there is no water on the bottom when you are done cooking. There are a few combi modes, one is regenerate or reheat, which lets you reheat food without drying it out. Most would say that a combi doesn't completely replace a microwave - it can't defrost as well as a microwave, and its not as quick to reheat things, and there are just some things a microwave does better. My guess is a speed oven is quicker than a combi, though a combi on combi mode can be quicker than a regular oven on some items, such as a whole chicken or turkey, because the moisture helps conduct the heat better than without the moisture. I wouldn't worry much about clean up,but would do searches on speed ovens v. combi to see what suits your needs better.
