High School - All high school WBCA member head and assistant coaches are eligible to nominate an individual in any award district who fits the above criteria. High school nominees are not required to be WBCA member head coaches.
Collegiate - After all nominations have been collected, the nomination information for each candidate will be accessible online for all NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA WBCA member head coaches with instructionsto cast an online ballot. Coaches can only cast their vote for nominees within their designated award region. In NCAA Division I, NCAA Division II, NCAA Division III and NAIA, the coaches who receive the most votes in each WBCA awards region become a RUSSELL ATHLETIC/WBCA Regional Coach of the Year.

This was printed from Charlotte Business Journal
A digest of important news from sources selected by our local editors. Delivered weekday mornings.
Novant Health Inc. will eliminate 289 jobs, including 103 at Presbyterian Healthcare in Charlotte, citing economic pressures to make health-care more affordable.
The Winston-Salem-based health-care system issued a memo to employees Tuesday concerning the layoff plans.
Novant has about 25,000 employees across the Carolinas and Virginia. About 9,000 of those are based in the Charlotte region.
"It's important to emphasize that Novant Health is financially secure, but we have to meet the challenge of providing more affordable care," Carl Armato, president and chief executive, states in the memo to employees.
He notes the recent recession and health-care reform have emphasized the need to make services more affordable. Patients are using fewer health-care services like elective surgeries and outpatient testing such as diagnostic imaging.
Novant faces pressures to reduce costs from patients as well as from government and businesses.
"We must address this imperative now, proactively, to remain a strong organization," Armato writes.
Employees will be notified of the cuts within the next three days. Plans call for 78 percent of the cuts to affect non-clinical employees, including 82 management positions. About 64 jobs will be cut from the clinical staff.
Novant will attempt to find other positions for employees affected by the cuts. It is currently recruiting for about 1,300 positions, mostly in clinical and patient-care positions. Most of the displaced positions are management and support staff though, so they will not qualify for the clinical openings.
The health-care system says it will extend assistance to employees who cannot find open positions, including severance packages for those who qualify.

Gun Culture = American Culture
May 21, 2013 1 Comment
This is from Frank Miniter writing in Forbes read it all and then come back and we'll talk some.
When Maryland Governor Martin O'Malley (D) signed sweeping gun-control legislation into law last week he finished a mistake that is anti-business, that weakens an individual right and that attacks an iconic image of the self-made American, someone who stands for what was once called the "American way."
O'Malley's support for gun-control is certainly founded in politics in his very blue state, but it's also based on a misunderstanding of America. First, the legislation Governor O'Malley signed will—after October 1—ban 45 specific types of commonly owned semi-automatic firearms, mandate the reporting of lost or stolen firearms and ban the sale, manufacture, purchase or transfer of magazines capable of holding more than 10 rounds of ammunition. The NRA says it will go to court to argue that portions of the law are unconstitutional.
Beretta Holding, which manufactures firearms in Accokeek, Maryland, put out a press release last week that says, "The question now facing the Beretta Holding companies in Maryland is this: What effect will the passage of this law—and the efforts of Maryland government officials to support its passage—have on our willingness to remain in this State?" Beretta then hints at an answer to this question: "Prior to introduction of this legislation the three Beretta Holding companies located in Maryland were experiencing growth in revenues and jobs and had begun expansion plans in factory and other operations. The idea now of investing additional funds in Maryland and thus rewarding a Government that has insulted our customers and our products is offensive to us so we will take steps to evaluate such investments in other States."[...]
To understand this mistake, consider the Beretta man. He has a shotgun that's a work of art. It might be an over/under with a grainy walnut stock, blued metal and engravings of a bird dog and maybe a pheasant on its receiver. Or it might be a semi-automatic Benelli (a Beretta-owned company) with a carbon-fiber stock and inertia-driven action. In either case, the Beretta man stands with his back straight and the shotgun in the crook of his arm. He is wearing a shooting vest and shooting glasses. He has class. He is how James Bond would look if he went skeet shooting. He's sophisticated, but hardly a snob. He has what the Spanish call duende, a characteristic James Michener said is almost indefinable, as it means something with taste, refinement, beauty, perfection and elegance all in just the right proportion and with no showiness at all. He is what the Japanese mean when they use the word shibui, which is something a Samurai tried to embody, but only could manage in fleeting moments when life and art meet before again separating with a bad gesture or misstep.
Of course, he isn't any more real than James Bond. But what archetype is? He's an American icon men want to be. He's an ideal never reached but, if you do everything right, might be you for just a manly moment when you shoot a perfect round and thereby master yourself. In that moment a Spaniard might proclaim, "Gracia." This is another word that deals not with things but with the essence of things and so is fleeting in an empirical age that trusts science to answer everything for us while disdaining the effervescent quality of philosophy. Though now misunderstood by op-ed writers at The New York Times, even the fashion set is aware of the Beretta man. Beretta, after all, has stores in Milan, Paris, London and New York. Oh, there's one in Dallas, too.
Of course, there is also a Beretta woman. Her lines of clothing are just as iconic. Though she doesn't follow the modern protocol for what a woman should look like to be sexy, Beretta's attire on a lady with an over/under shotgun can make the Beretta man forget himself more than any Kardashian ever could.
Beretta was founded in 1526, a year before Machiavelli died. Beretta is still family owned. Beretta saw Michelangelo, Casanova and Mussolini go. They actually have a castle, the Beretta Castle. They set a standard and hold onto it.
During a tour of its Maryland plant last winter Matteo Recanatini, web & social media manager for Beretta in the U.S., said to me, "The Beretta family approves every clothing design, every tweak to every firearm. They're conscious that the Beretta image is iconic, an ideal. Everything has to perfectly fit that image and to function flawlessly."
Matteo, an Italian, was acknowledging there is a different way of looking at guns and American gun culture than some blue-state politicians suggest. This image is what President Barack Obama tried to represent when the White House leaked a photo of him "shooting skeet" with a shotgun held too horizontal for skeet shooting and with a choke missing from the bottom barrel (it takes two for skeet)—clear signs the shot was a stunt. Instead of being the Beretta man, Obama became a laughable parody of something he doesn't understand, but at least on some level he knows such an archetype exists.
What he doesn't seem to grasp is that, to people who want to be a Beretta man, or a Winchester man, or a Colt man … guns aren't a negative thing; they're a manly a thing a real man knows how to use safely and well. And therein lies the political miscalculation of anti-gun-freedom politicians.
And that's all true and very real but, there is more to it as well. The profile of the old Colt Single Action Army, or the Winchester lever action are iconic of the American cowboy and settler (and even Indian) all over the world. These were world-class weapons, heck they were the class of the world, anybody wanting the best arms for their people bought American, they still do. Nobody uses an AK if they can get an M-16. And in fact the Peacemaker and the Winchester were as good or better than what the Army was using at the time.
But they are icons of the America I remember, men who were real men, who did what needed doing (with a fair amount of b*tching) but never a whine. And you know what, what they had they earned, from the Stetson hat that cost a half a months pay, to the woman that they were loyal to (and was just as loyal to them). They got what they earned, good or bad, and they made of America a legend, that from Grand Duke Alexei of Russia hunting with Buffalo Bill to Kaiser Wilhelm dreaming of being a cowboy after being forced to abdicate after World War I, the movies showed it of course, with men like the Duke, but it goes back to Buffalo Bill's Wild West Show in the 19th century. Before that it was the legend of men like Davy Crockett, Travis and company at the Alamo, and before that the men with Kentucky rifles who told the most powerful empire in the world to go pound sand. And made it stick. And it showed the world what it was to be that special thing, an American.
But guns are special, once they became reliable, they replaced the knife in America, even the legendary Bowie knife and we never looked back. There's a couple of things about them. Cause there is something else that appeals, at least to me, and I'll bet a host of others. It's the elegance of fine engineering, when you handle that Benelli Shotgun, Winchester Rifle, Colt or Beretta handgun, you are handling a finely designed, and manufactured item. The fine fit of a gun is like few things mass-produced in the world, it fits and it works, without slop, every time. Almost every gun I've shot over the years would put a bullet within a 1/60th of a degree of where I aimed it. And I've fired rifles that would do much better, good enough to win multi-state marksmanship championships. I know they did because my uncle won, beating another one of my uncles to win it.
There's nothing in a car like it, it would be like buying a Ferrari for the price of a Ford. That's how good a standard American gun is. And if you can find anything manufactured more beautiful than blue steel mated to American walnut, well, I haven't seen it. American guns are just plain working works of art, which is why traditionally one of the state presents given to foreign leaders by American presidents are American guns. Mostly specially engraved Colt revolvers and Winchester rifles.
They symbolize what we are better than anything else could, beautiful, mass-produced works of art designed for and by a free people.
Are there any more American manufacturing legends than Colonel Colt, Henry Winchester, Dr. Gatling, or John Moses Browning. Not that I know of except maybe Eli Whitney who pioneered interchangeable parts on the Springfield musket of 1795 and perfected it by the model of 1815.
Bob Owens wrote about this as well at Another journalist gets it: the gun culture is America's soul « Bob Owens.
Even more than the eagle; guns, especially civilian arms, are the icon of the free American
No wonder they want to take them away from us.

Easter Entertaining Decor & Inspiration
April 12, 2011Easter is just around the corner! I picked up a bouquet of daffodils and tulips just the other day at the market and they added such a bright and fresh touch to our kitchen and dining room. Any type of bulb flower at a sweet price is a definite nod that spring is here.
Here are some of my favorite Easter entertaining ideas – after all, it's a mere two and a half weeks away!
We're celebrating Easter with family and I think a casual brunch outdoors would be a lovely way to relax.
Purples, pinks, corals, creams… the inspirational palette for this year.
I have several white paper lanterns that I hang at varied heights for just such occasions.
A simple spread of french toast, boysenberry syrup and fresh squeezed oj? Yes please. Served atop vintage dishware with mismatched glasses around a centerpiece of beautiful flowers – double yes.
Alright, so I probably won't hang antique chandeliers above the table, but it's pretty, right?
Here are a few more inspirational Easter ideas!

Beautiful images! I love that huge bouquet/vase of pink tulips! Stunning. Glad I found your site today.
I want to come to your house for brunch on Easter. I agree that the chandeliers hanging outside are gorgeous but not going to happen.
These are all so pretty! I can't wait for spring!

text: Well on my day off I took my father's minivan ('93 Grand Voyager, V6) to get the A/C fixed... again. We went through this about a month ago and three weeks later it died for a fifth time. Well this time they claim it's the evaporator, and with parts and labor it will cost just over a grand to fix, in Canadian funds. Does this sound about right? $1000 Canadian seems like an awful lot of money, especially since I paid $400 for the last repair (lines) just a month ago. Are we getting screwed? Please answer quickly if possible, since my mother just okay'ed the repairs, against my judgement. Thanks guys.

Asperger's syndrome (or disorder) is a developmental disorder in which people have severe difficulties understanding how to interact socially. People with Asperger's syndrome may not recognize verbal and nonverbal cues or understand normal social rules, such as taking turns talking or recognizing personal space.
Asperger's syndrome and autism belong to a class of disorders called pervasive developmental disorders. Asperger's syndrome shares some similarities with autism. Like those with autism, children with Asperger's syndrome have abnormal social interactions, facial expressions, and gestures, and unusually focused interests. Unlike those with autism, children with Asperger's syndrome usually have normal intelligence and language development (although the rhythm, pitch, and emphasis are irregular), age-appropriate self-reliance, and interest in the world around them.
Children with Asperger's syndrome have a better outlook than those with other developmental disorders. Many lead productive, independent lives in adulthood.
Asperger's syndrome affects males more than females. Its cause is unknown, although it tends to run in families, suggesting a possible genetic link.

Mitt Romney Channels Dan Quayle as Gaffemeister General
Everyone's having a grand old time mocking Mitt Romney for finally "admitting": "I'm not very concerned about the very poor." The quotation has been bandied about as proof that Romney is a greedy, unfeeling capitalist. And, in a presidential campaign which emphasizes optics over good sense, Romney has already retreated, saying he "misspoke."
In fairness, the quotation was taken out of context. Romney said: "I'm not concerned about the very poor. We have a safety net there. If it needs repair, I'll fix it. I'm not concerned about the very rich. They're doing just fine. I'm concerned about the very heart of America—the 90-95 percent of Americans who right now are struggling." In other words, Romney did not intend to convey contempt for the poor. He was saying that there are programs dedicated to protecting the poor but it is the middle class that is being completely ignored.
This "gaffe" and Romney's other rich-related verbal stumbles recall the unhappy political career of Dan Quayle, George H.W. Bush's linguistically challenged vice president, who was dismissed as stupid for all kinds of doozies. Remember the time, when he was in Hawaii, and said, "When I meet with world leaders, what's striking—whether it's in Europe or here in Asia..." even though Hawaii's a chain of islands far from the Asian land mass, and is at best called Oceania. Or the time he said, "We're the country that built the Intercontinental Railroad" when it was the transcontinental railroad. Or the time he said, "The Middle East is obviously an issue that has plagued the region for centuries." Or, my personal favorite, the time he said in Beaverton, Oregon: "I've now been in 57 states—I think one left to go."
Don't remember Dan Quayle saying these? Well, you're right—it was Barack Obama. These and other verbal pratfalls, compiled by Daniel Kurtzman, are not all that well-known. This is because even his opponents agree that Barack Obama is smart and eloquent. When he stumbles, most people understand that anyone forced to talk as often as he is before cameras is bound to make the occasional error.
Romney on the wealth issue, and Quayle on the intelligence issue, ran into what I call the "O-Ring Factor." Just as that particular part on the space shuttle Challenger eroded only because of specific weather conditions, most gaffes only stick where politicians are vulnerable. Obama is rarely tongue-tied, so he can get away with the occasional vocabulary or linguistic malfunction. But reporters and rivals loved questioning Quayle's intelligence, just as reporters and rivals are now enjoying questioning Romney's sensitivity to the other 99.9 percent of Americans less wealthy than he is.
Unfortunately, such pouncing comes at a price. It sets candidates on edge, making all of them even more superficial and artificial. None of us would fare very well with cameras recording our every statement. This campaign is seeking a chief executive not a robot. Let's have an honest debate about the impact of Romney's wealth on his worldview—but spare us this tomfoolery, or Dan Quaylery.

Good to jam when: Needing a kick
Dotore is a Spanish band featuring songs based on the personal experiences of band member Pablo Martínez Sanromá, who was originally born in San Sebastian, but currently resides in my former city of residence held EVER so dearly to my heart, Barcelona. A lot of the songs off their new album "Los veranos y los días," (The summers and the days), are Pablo's way of reflecting on his days spent living in China, France, Germany, and the U.S. and have seen positive reviews for the album in return for having one of the best discs and songs of the year.
Today's feature, "Nadie llora en Nanjing," or (Nobody cries in Nanjing), is filled with powerful and irking movements of violin, and doused with subtle repetition from the use of brushes to soften the sound of drums to give you that extra kick that you might be needing. Nanjing is an extremely important city in China due to its previous title as the country's capital during several historical periods and also for being recognized as one of the four great ancient capitals of China. So while the title provides that the city doesn't get knocked down easily, maybe today, it will allow you to withstand a little more.

March 01, 2010 | Tips from Travellers > Vancouver, Dining Find more information about Vancouver - Dining
I've had the pleasure of visiting Vancouver several times over the years and always enjoy having dinner at the Steamworks Brewing Company near the harbor.
The beer brewed on premise is superb, the food is excellent and the service is wonderful. Steamworks also has an adjacent upscale restaurant located in the old transcontinental train station (which is now the new automated rapid transit terminal with service to the airport and Richmond) that is great as well.
In addition, I have discovered an exciting way to travel between Vancouver harbor and Victoria: by helicopter! We flew with Helijet in a sleek, fast S-76 helicopter and then returned in a big S-61 helicopter. Both of these regularly scheduled flights were really neat!
Helijet also has very nice business-class type terminals adjacent to Vancouver harbor (their heliport actually floats in the harbor) and Victoria. I highly recommend Helijet.
By the way, all visitors to Vancouver should not miss Victoria as it is a beautiful and special place.

Having public pay bank debts just won't work
WORLD VIEW: A new balance must be struck between states, markets, corporations and civil society
FIGURES FOR the growth of worldwide financial markets in recent decades give a startling picture of how the sector has come to dominate economic activity in many parts of the world. Estimates for the value of financial assets (excluding derivatives) rose from 108 per cent of annual gross world product (GWP) in 1980 to 400 per cent in 2009.
The notional value of derivatives rose 15 times from $41 trillion (€31.5 trillion) in 1995 to $615 trillion in 2009 – about 10 times GWP.
We are living through the consequences of this system's trauma in the global financial crisis of 2008-2009 and are daily surrounded by arguments over banking regulation and who should bear the costs of financial failure. It is possibly the end of the neoliberal era and policy regime characterised by capital mobility and deregulation, and could be the beginning of a new one with a different relationship between states and markets.
But a huge paradox pertains, well-captured in the title of a fine book published last year, The Strange Non-Death of Neoliberalism, by the political economist Colin Crouch. Neoliberalism's predecessor policy regime, Keynesian demand management, collapsed in the inflation crisis of the 1970s, he argues, because the classes in whose interests it primarily operated – the manual workers of western industrial society – were in historical decline and losing their social power.
In contrast the forces that gain most from neoliberalism – global corporations and especially financial ones – have emerged from this crisis more powerful than before. Considered too big to fail, they have to be protected from their own folly following their credit and derivatives spree of the 1990s and 2000s.
He describes that as "privatised Keynesianism" – the substitution of private credit among poor and middle income people for state action, and the emergence of derivatives and futures markets among the very wealthy. The costs of the failure are being redistributed on cuts in public and welfare services – socialising the financial sector's losses – while they return to privatising the gains now considered indispensable for economic recovery.
It is an audacious and arrogant claim for special treatment. And it is now entangled inescapably with state budgets and sovereignty, so that simply writing off the losses against bank shareholders, the supposedly normal practice of free market capitalism, is made more difficult.
But the debt hanging over states like Ireland, which went furthest with the spree and then with socialising the losses, is simply unsustainable. It suffocates recovery – as does the popular austerity imposed to transfer those losses. So the policies adopted are not working. There is a contradiction between saving the banks, enabling financial markets and sustainable economic growth.

About Us
The On Call Marketing Director
There's one question I hear every day.
Why doesn't most marketing work?
There are charlatans out there, the snake oil salesmen, who offer too-good-to-be-true marketing schemes which are, you guessed it, too good to be true. There are people with good intentions who don't know how to address the issues of picking a message and sticking to it. (My
Free Report
goes into this a bit more.) If there isn't a
written marketing plan
, there's no hope in having good results. Finally, there are many marketing folks who--even if they have a marketing plan--simply don't have the creative and production resources to deliver a solid program, wasting money and time in the process.
You don't need a random marketing consultant to come in and spout the latest "tool" out there. You need a well-written marketing plan, a series of marketing strategies, solid tactics and an actionable marketing calendar. You need an On Call Marketing Director who has your business goals in mind.
My proprietary marketing process is simple. But it comes from years of experience and successes. I've been an advertising agency principal in Portland for over 20 years. I'm straight forward, easy to talk to and I listen. There's not a marketing challenge we can't face together. While my years of experience are a huge asset, it doesn't mean I'm going to shortcut the process with a one-size-fits-all marketing plan. My clients get marketing strategies and tactics tailored to their particular needs.
I serve my clients best as
On Call Marketing Director
who comes in and provides all the services a Marketing Director does, but at a much more cost-effective level. Who do I work with? My experience ranges from small start-up businesses to not-so-small like Pepsi and Ghirardelli Square. But business size doesn't make much of a difference. Every project I've worked on has had tight deadlines, tight budgets and many other issues to solve. If your business values marketing and sales, we're likely a good fit.

Featured in the American Sailing Journal, Summer 2011
Is it safe to say that we became boaters because we love being out on the water? We don't have to be reminded about how wonderful it is to go sailing, fishing or diving from our boats in a healthy marine environment, or how sad it is to see trash on the beach or oil on the water. The idea of Green Boating stems from our natural instinct to protect what we cherish. It is not a new fad, but an attitude that translates into behaviors that reflect our values.
Green Boating doesn't have to be a sacrifice. In fact, what I've discovered on my boat is that going green has made my overall boating experience safer, more comfortable and…

It is understood that the disadvantage of electric propulsion systems is the limited range of the batteries. Because of this, a lot of attention and hope is on the evolution of battery technology. There are a lot of battery designs in use, with the most common being some type of lead- acid, nickel cadmium or lithium ion, each with their advantages and disadvantages but none so far representing the breakthrough that could truly revolutionize electric power storage. But what if you could turn the conventional thinking about batteries upside down and envision an energy storage system that was unlike any "battery" that you have ever seen?
Does a device that holds electric charge have to use rare or expensive materials to act as an electrolyte? Does it have to be extremely heavy? Does it have to operate…

Designed by Yoh Aoki and the renowned Japanese naval architect, Yokoyama, the Zen 24 is believed to be the first mid 20 ft "pocket cruiser" which is marketed, designed and optimized for inboard electric auxiliary propulsion. The design, based on the popular Ahodori 24 in Japan has a unique hull shape that allows the boat to reach hull speed quickly in light air, while also remaining stable in heavy conditions. The boat is also designed to balance easily under sail, making the boat easy to handle, which makes the boat suitable for beginners and experts alike. The…

In answer to your question:
http://issuu.com/proptalk/docs/dec_pt_2012 see pp 39-42
This is an article in the Dec 2012 PropTalk magazine, the powerboat mag for the Chesapeake Bay area. It was written by one of the contestants, Charlie Iliff.
Anyone with an electric boat that can go 24 miles in less than 6 hours without recharging is invited to attend.
There is also a great article on the 2011 race in the English mag, Electric Boat News Autumn 2012 written by Jim Campbell of eCanoe.
The race is sponsored by the Electric Boat Association of America. It is held on the Friday before the Small Craft Festival of the Chesapeake Bay Maritime Museum, about Oct. 1.
We would love to have you here.
I am new to this sort of page so I do not know how to keep things organized. I posted a video of the race on my "page".
Hi Greg!
Thanks for your welcome-mail, i am happy to be listed on your site! A lot of informations - also in english - can be found on our website www.solarwave.at
Kind regards, Michael
thanks for the complement Greg. I was out sailing today had a nice run in with an afternoon squall. it was a blast. cheers
Hi Greg, thanks for the profile comment. Like others here, I am wrestling with questions of propellers and battery packs for my 8m sloop. I'll post more when things have become a bit clearer. Best regards, - Martin
Hi Greg, Thanks for the welcome. I've got some questions.
First of all, I am reclaiming a 32ft Nantucket Clipper after she was stripped and left in a barn for 10 years. The old Sabb diesel is out and in my garage. My thinking is that I keep the underpowered diesel cause it sounds like the engine in African Queen and is miserly on diesel or repower. As I look at the electric option I am finding that I could get more thrust from an electric than the 10 hp diesel and not gain more weight or much more. The Sabb weighs 450 lbs + fuel and extras.
Now I'm looking at motors and controlers to put together a DIY system so I'm looking for answers to selection questions. I'll ask them in the forum but will involve things like are the rated RPMs for a motor and indication effect on regeration. I'm also interested in linking a drag generator with solar panels and wind gen and emergency back up organic burner. My goal is for long term livaboard cruising. A passage through the Panama Canal and as far as it is fun. I think I can enjoy myself more if I'm free from paying tolls to oil companies not to mention being a good human and not messing up our home.
Nice to meet you Greg,
Walter Graupner
Hello Greg, thank you for the welcome and for your comment. As yet, most of our products are not available to purchase, however we are working with several companies developing battery systems for their products. We will keep you informed with updates and thank you for your interest in OXIS Energy.
Thank you! She is a great deal of work, but it is (supposed to be) a labour of love.

Peeks into the new Lulu & Lilly Studio….
Posted by: | CommentsAfter you all have waited so patiently…
I finally have a few moments to show you a bit around the new studio space!
I have been blessed with so many wonderful clients these last 6 weeks, I have had to focus on them and not the blog.
I do have some fun things planned to share with you over this summer, so I will try to post those more timely
Without more ado… here is our new little creative workshop!
In this space we will host creative events, workshops, shopping events (our first one is being planned right now!), meet with clients and create unique finds for home and life! It is a small space, but we will use it very efficiently.
This shot is looking out into our entry vestibule and our changing inspiration board.
Here are our desks… this area will have some color added to it soon, (some creative painting techniques from Alicia), along with a place to hang fabric swatches.
One of my favorite fabrics…. reinventing a dated chair. (I also have this fabric in my other office!)
The place were creative projects get done….
Some of Lulu & Lilly's merchandise that is for sale. Custom pillows, vintage pieces, artwork, frames, and little treasures. There is even more coming…. wait until you see what we have planned for fall!
Maybe the perfect thing is waiting to go home with you?
Our past projects board in the vestibule of our entryway. Alicia and the Studio were featured in the Twin Cities Metro Mag during the month of April… a delightful article about my artistic partner and her business… written by the uber talented Cy Winship!
Thanks Cy for the wonderful kudos…
Lastly… when you come to visit us… this is your view into our space.
So… welcome!
Please come by to visit us soon… we are by appointment only, so please call first to make sure we will be at the Studio. We'd love to show you around our little space and introduce you to all of the current Lulu & Lilly projects!
Thanks for stopping by and thank you even more to our fabulous clients, friends, and associates who has helped make this new creative playhouse a reality. We couldn't have done it without you. We are blessed!
Before Photos of the New Studio!
Posted by: | CommentsOkay, I thought I better share some of what is going on in our space!
Progress has been slower than we desire in the remodel and construction of our new studio space, but none-the-less, it is finally moving along! We are a bit further than these photos will show now, but I will give another update soon, as things are changing every day around here.
To start off with… this space was awful when we signed the lease…. a dark, dirty storage room in the lower level of the mansion that had not been rented out before. We knew it had potential for our first joint studio space… so we plunged ahead anyway!
Here is what we found….
Just to let you know… none of the stuff in the space was ours at this point, so it the cleaning staff had to remove all the items stored there before we could even get to the next step.
Oh, these pipes… they have been quite the challenge. We have chosen to ignore the ones on the ceiling (as most other tenants on our level have) but the ones coming down the wall are being encased in a wall for the most part.
The joy of old buildings!
Okay… this is a small hint as to what is to come for the space. We used some inspiration from this House Beautiful issue to add some design and style to our space. To transform this space we will definitely be pulling all of our design tricks out. Decorating with paint and color will be the most transforming elements. In the next post… I will let you in a bit more on what that inspiration direction is!
That's all for today… thanks for stopping by!

Once upon a time on a very foggy day, I walked for 30 minutes to what seemed like the end of the earth in the freezing cold. All to reach this place,
What is that place? Well that's the magical part, that my dear readers is the wonderful Athletic Club, a fitness centre of the most elite caliber reserved exclusively for dear people such as you and I. Actually, I made up that last part, but honestly I can't imagine that a fitness club gets much better than that. AND THE PRICE! Oh my goodness let me talk to you about the prices. For between $40-50 per month (paid in bi-weekly installments) you get full-access. I've done some shopping around and other clubs that offer far less seem to charge around the same amounts. Honestly people, after reading this post, if you don't get what I get, you and your club need to have a serious discussion .
I didn't want to take photos inside, I thought that would be creepy. So all the photos that follow are from their website. Actually most of the pictures are 3D generated images, but trust me they are very close to what the gym itself actually looks like inside.
This is on the second level in the co-ed cardio room. All of the machines do have televisions which is awesome! I remember at my old gym there were few televisions scattered about on the walls, but they were so hard to see. I personally find that cardio can become very boring, so I appreciate the distraction. Not only that but I like that I can still watch my favourite shows while working out. I know #lazyass.
I'm very glad that they have the selection of machines that they do. I've never seen a gym with such variety, and also the sheer numbers. It's clear that they pay attention to which machines are the most popular and have been sure to make sure that there are more of those types. I also noticed that even among the machines that are the same types, they have selected a few different brands. This is nice because some people might be used to different interfaces or feels. Even personally, I found one type of treadmill that I would never use because when I was trying to operate it I found the interface very difficult and frustrating. I then went to another that I found much more simple and I am sticking with it.
Now the lounge doesn't look quite like this (never saw a fireplace), but it does have the billiards table. Members can buy smoothies and other drinks as well as some snacks. I actually think that the prices are quite good. I assumed they would be more expensive because of the convenience (finish workout, can grab smoothie right away). I found after comparing that their prices for energy drinks are actually cheaper than at regular stores and their smoothie prices are pretty standard.
The change room and shower area is quite nice. The floors are heated and it is very large and spacious. They also provide hair dryers so we don't have to bring our own, and they aren't like the cheap Conair ones you get from the drugstore. Overall, I feel like i am walking into the spa when I come here haha.
There are many different yoga and fitness studios and they have a nice variety of programs. The studio in the image is the sky studio which means that it has a skylight and one wall that opens to become a giant window. The focus of the classes in here are to become in touch with nature as a method of relaxation. Each of the studios is a nice size and I haven't had issues of feeling crowded in the classes.
There is a gymnasium and they will have sports activities. Unfortunately it is still under construction so I do not know what it looks like. I hope it opens soon because I really would like to take kickboxing classes which are only offered in that facility.
And the entrance really does look like that!
So far I am definitely loving the gym. I was so nervous to enroll because I was afraid that I would feel intimidated going to a regular gym. I felt intimidated going to my university gym even though I was around people my own age, I was afraid that in this gym I would be surrounded by crazy body builders and staff who would look at me like I was a fat idiot trying to figure out all of the machines.
Luckily the staff is extremely friendly and everything there has felt so comfortable. It feels like a natural extension to my day to go there.
Now for everybody reading, don't be wooed by the beautiful photos and my word alone. Before joining any gym you should definitely get a tour and maybe ask if you can have a trial period so that you can attend and get a feel for it yourself. Everybody needs to find the gym that suits them, makes them feel comfortable and welcome. If you don't feel comfortable there, then you won't want to go and in the end you might fail on your goals right?
If you have any questions about my gym or membership, please don't hesitate to ask! And below is their official website where you can find all of the photos (except for the first) that I used in this post and more.

January 26, 2013 at 7:00pm
Doors Open: 6:00pm
Prices: $69.50 / $55 / $35
On Saturday January, 26, Muse attracted nearly 20,000 die hard fans to Downtown Los Angeles for what would be their last of three performances at Staples Center. Doors opened at 6:00pm and the UK-trio kicked off the night with their newest dub-step single, "Unsustainable", from their recent album, The 2nd Law.
Muse, known for their fascination with technology and science, delivered what many say was their most visually compelling show to date. For aesthetic appeal, live footage from the band's music videos was projected onto flat screens that surrounded the stage. At one point, after a much anticipated rendition of "Hysteria," an inverted pyramid made up of more screens descended from the stage ceiling. In addition to the array of moving video screens, band members continued to perform with custom instruments that lit up and responded to the played notes throughout the two-hour show.
In 2011 Muse took home the Grammy Award for Best Rock Album for The Resistance. The band has also earned four Gold Albums, and over the course of their career have won multiple Brit Awards, MTV Europe Music Awards, NME Awards, Q Awards, and many others. They have released six albums, 1999's Showbiz, 2001's Origin of Symmetry, 2003's Absolution, 2006's Black Holes and Revelations, 2009's The Resistance, and this year's The 2nd Law, which earned them their highest-ever debut on the Billboard album chart when the album bowed at No. 2 a week after its release. The album's first single "Madness" is currently in its 9th consecutive week at No. 1 at alternative radio. Muse will kick off a tour of the United States in January 2013.
Muse kicked off their 2013 North American Tour in San Diego and will finish on April 26 in Quebec City, Quebec before taking their show abroad.

Feast Day: The Archangels Michael, Gabriel and Raphael, Messengers of God
Who are the archangels?
"Those who deliver messages of lesser importance are called angels; and those who proclaim messages of supreme importance are called archangels." The Catechism explains: "From infancy to death human life is surrounded by their watchful care and intercession. 'Beside each believer stands an angel as protector and shepherd leading him to life.' Already here on earth the Christian life shares by faith in the blessed company of angels and men united in God" (No. 336).
One of a multitude of images featuring St Michael the Archangel doing battle with Satan
Today we celebrate the Feast of Sts. Michael, Gabriel and Raphael: Archangels. Though we cannot know of all the many times these magnificent spirits and powerful allies have entered into history to accomplish God's will, protecting us, driving away demons, and bearing forth messages of God's providential plan of salvation, some of their specific actions are recorded in Sacred Scripture, and, in each case, we obtain a glimpse into their ardent love for God, intently focused wills and formidable intellects.
"Who Is Like God"
In the Office of Readings -- from The Liturgy Of The Hours, which is a part of the official, liturgical and public prayer of the Church -- antiphon we read: "The sea grew turbulent and the earth trembled when Michael the archangel came down from heaven."
As we read in Scripture, it was St. Michael who long ago led the battle against Satan: "Then war broke out in heaven; Michael and his angels battled against the dragon. Although the dragon and his angels fought back, they were overpowered and lost their place in heaven. The huge dragon, the ancient serpent known as the devil or Satan, the seducer of the whole world, was driven out; he was hurled down to earth and his minions with him" (Rev 12:7-9).
The name Michael means "who is like God." St. Michael's will is focused, immovable, and entirely driven toward accomplishing goodness: he is a protector of souls, and wields his unrelenting sword of righteous justice against the poisonous and vindictive aspirations of the one who is known as a liar from the beginning. During a visit to the Sanctuary of Saint Michael the Archangel, the Venerable John Paul II said, "The battle against the devil . . . is the principal task of Saint Michael the archangel."
When St. Michael the Archangel appeared to the three children at Fatima in 1916, preparing the way for the apparition of our Blessed Mother which was soon to follow, he said to them, "Fear not. I am the Angel of Peace. Pray with me." Then, prostrating himself, he repeated three times: "My God; I believe, I adore, I hope, and I love Thee! I beg Thee forgiveness for those who do not believe, do not adore, do not hope, and do not love Thee!" In this simple yet wonderful prayer of profound meaning, St. Michael clearly reveals his burning adoration and love for God, as well as the fact that, deep within the center of his being, he also bears great love and concern for men. How serious and committed this warrior is! St. Michael offers us a model of unwavering dedication, focus, fearlessness, and trust in God's sovereign goodness and power.
"God Is My Strength"
Gabriel means "God is my strength." As we read in the second antiphon of the Office of Readings, the angel Gabriel appeared to Zechariah and said, "Your wife Elizabeth will bear you a son, and you shall name him John" (see Lk 1:13). Thus St. Gabriel announced the coming of John the Baptist, the greatest prophet of the Most High, who would go before the Lord to prepare his way.
It was St. Gabriel who was sent from God to Nazareth, "to a virgin betrothed to a man named Joseph, . . . and the virgin's name was Mary. And coming to her, he said, 'Hail, favored one! The Lord is with you'" (Lk 1:27-28).
St. Gabriel's message announced a pivotal moment in humankind's history: the Savior was, by the power of the Holy Spirit, to be conceived in the womb of the Virgin Mary. The Archangel who draws his strength from God brought us the message of strength in which we draw our hope: God Incarnate was soon to enter history for love of man.
Pope St. Gregory the Great wrote: "He [Gabriel] came to announce the One who appeared as a humble man to quell the cosmic powers. Thus God's strength announced the coming of the Lord of the heavenly powers, mighty in battle" (excerpt from Hom. 34, 8-9).
"God Is My Health"
Raphael means "God is my health." St. Raphael is one of seven angels "who enter and serve before the Glory of the Lord" (Tob 12:15). The meaning of Raphael's name reflects the fact that he touched Tobit's eyes in order to heal them of blindness.
In the third antiphon of the Office of Readings, we are reminded that Raphael stands before God: "I am the angel Raphael, I stand in the presence of the Lord; as for you, bless the Lord, and proclaim his wonderful deeds."
When Tobit and his son Tobiah were discussing how they should repay St. ...

To God be the glory! Magnificent article and video. We are in the hands of God, let it be done according to His will. Whatever happens to this nation, let us unite in faith in this country as never seen before. There is a purpose to all things and I pray that this time of suffering and sacrifice will unite us and will bring God's holy church finally together. I believe our time here is going to get much, much worse and we will be tested as we have never experienced before. Who will remain faithful and who will fall? Our prayers for the intercession of Our most Blessed Lady and Archangel Michael call us to prayer. There is no more powerful defense than prayer, prayer, and more prayer. Prayer, fasting and sacrifice. Arcangel Miguel, intercede por nosotros, se nuestra defensa contra las mentiras de satanas.

As a communications worker here in Afghanistan I take comfort in the knowledge that the Patron Saint of my job is an Archangel. I feel the comfort of the his wings around me as I proceed to ensure a clear and concise message is delivered and one day it will be a resounding "Yes" to peace on earth just as Mary said to him as well.

To Angel Raphael's words -Standing in the presence of the Lord is standing before the Glory, to a small understanding that when Moses wanted to see His Glory, God shielded Moses with His hand,& Moses seeing only the back parts of The Lord, lest he die facing the Glory, the best that a man can get standing Before Him is to see his feet. To the angel unto the Church of Thyatira said the Son of God who hath His eyes unto a flame of Fire & his feet as fine brass---. As off the Father, the Son the only begotten one, declareth Him.

Thanks for another great and well written article. We humans have such a great resource in the angels but we let it go to waste. Vatican I wisely turned to St. Michael to defend us in battle against satan, but Vatican II tragically did away with the Prayer to St. Michael after Mass. Many people believe in Angels but don't know how relate in prayer with them. It is sad that the Catholic Church CCC's ignore this important element of our faith. I encourage all to say the prayer to St. Michael following the rosary. It promises to be a wonderful experience.

How blessed we are, to have the angels by our side. Of all God's beautiful creatures, the angels are among my favorites, always there to talk to, protect, and guide us. Angels make the hard things in life easier, and they rejoice in the good works their charges, people, create. Let us honor them as our friends and protectors!

Loved it! I love Angels and thank God for them!

Least we hear about them once a year. I know some parishes are beginning to say the prayer to St Michael after Mass. We used to say that every day when I was a kid. We need to do it again.

Undergraduate Research Grant For Individual Conference Attendance
The Undergraduate Research Program accepts proposals from individual students to support travel to attend academic conferences. In most cases, the maximum award is $250 to cover travel, ground transportation, accommodations, and the conference registration fee. Dining expenses will not be supported. Any cost overruns will be the responsibility of the student unless specifically cleared by the Undergraduate Research committee.
If awarded a conference travel grant, the student is expected to complete the following:
- Meet with the Director of Undergraduate Research, Dr. Sara Sewell, soon after the announcement of the award. Email Dr. Sewell (email@example.com) to set up an appointment.
- Make all financial arrangements for the conference through VWC's Business Office with Ms. Midge Zimmerman. You may contact Ms. Zimmerman at email@example.com.
- After the conference, submit an itemized expense record to Dr. Sewell.
- After the conference, submit 2 or 3 photographs of you at the conference (i.e. presenting a paper/poster or with a conference sign/banner). These pictures might be used for publicity.

I would like to see a combined project proposal with needed improvements to the farmers market and Lost Park, located just 300 feet north of the market's location. Such an improvement project would benefit Lost Park and I believe the market too. In addition to providing more permanence and prestige to the farmers market by directly connecting with Bidwell Park, a state-recognized regional treasure, the First Street lot is larger and cooler than its present lot area. The First Street lot will also soon be more accessible and visible than the present farmers market location, due to the traffic entering the downtown from the east being redirected along First Street by the couplet project traffic circle.
Is this an opportunity for the city, the market and even some downtown merchants? Might the City Finance Committee direct staff to also provide details on a possible bathroom/office located in the First Street parking lot or Lost Park? Could the farmers market seriously consider signing a long-term lease for using the First Street parking lot? Would thorough and careful consideration of all these new circumstances together with more cooperation produce benefits for everyone?

Cyber security
Cyber security has received a thorough debate within the Obama administration. Now it looks like the Homeland Security Department will retain at least some role in setting standards and policy - even as a new White House office is established for cyber security. It's taken a month for the administration to get its final report out after the 60-day review. Why? Because lots of agencies and panels were fighting for a piece of the action. But Congress has yet to weigh in. I'm Tom Temin.
