Ojai Studio Artists celebrate at the Ojai Valley Museum
Hang 10" Exhibit Reception and Ojai Studio Artists 2012 Scholarship Award Presentation
On the evening of Saturday, June 2, 2012, between 5 and 7 p.m., the prestigious Ojai Studio Artists will celebrate a multi-purpose event at the Ojai Valley Museum. A reception for the current "Hang 10" exhibition will be combined with the presentation of awards to their 2012 art scholarship recipients. The evening is free and open to the public. Hors d'oeuvres and a no-host bar are included in the festivities.
The current Ojai Studio Artists 10th Anniversary Group Show has been on view since April 19th. Entitled "HANG 10," the exhibit typically closes after the 2012 Ojai Music Festival concludes in early June. Consequently, it is traditional for OSA to host a reception towards the end of the exhibit's run, because the scholarship recipients are home from their respective schools and they are available to attend a June ceremony.
In addition to the 57 works of art in the Ojai Studio Artists "Hang 10" group show, there is a satellite exhibition in the Alcove Gallery sampling the art of the OSA 2012 Scholarship Awardees. This year, the nine chosen artists range in age from seventeen to thirty-five and are either art students in academia, or, being taught through private lessons. The two dimensional works by scholarship recipients Edaan Byle, Megan Cerminaro, Holly Johnson, Lindsay Luckenbach, Michaela McEttrick, Julio Xicotencatl Rodriguez, Claire Sowa and Jamie Swan are exhibited with sculpture by Tristan Antoni Walczak in the gallery. These artists were chosen from a wide selection of submissions and were juried by a committee of OSA members. The annual scholarships are part of an on-going program created to recognize talented burgeoning local artists and to help them finance their art education throughout the course of one year.
The Ojai Studio Artists Closing Reception combined with the Scholarship Awards Presentation is a favorite evening at the Ojai Valley Museum. This museum event celebrates the mature artist along with the emerging, artistic talent that is so prevalent in the Ojai area.
The Ojai Valley Museum, established in 1967, is generously supported in part by Museum Members, Private Donors, Business Sponsors and Underwriters, the Smith-Hobson Foundation, Wood-Claeyssens Foundation, City of Ojai, Rotary Club of Ojai, and the Ojai Civic Association.
The museum is located at 130 W. Ojai Avenue, Ojai, CA. Admission: free for current 2012 members, adults - $4.00, children 6–18 - $1.00 and children 5 and under – free. Gallery Hours are Tuesday – Saturday 10 to 4 pm; Sunday, noon to 4 pm. Tours are available by appointment.

Fabiola Esparza, 15, was a passenger on a 2001 Polaris Virage personal watercraft being driven by Andrew Gutierrez when Douglas Lane turned his larger boat in front of the watercraft. Gutierrez eased off on the throttle and attempted to steer out of the boat's path, but the watercraft failed to respond and collided with the side of the boat.
Esparza suffered a severe traumatic brain injury to her frontal lobe, destroying her executive-function skills, including her judgment and decision-making, and leaving her with the functioning of a 5-year-old child. She will require 24-hour assistance and supervision. Her billed medical expenses of about $2.2 million were paid by insurance for about $500,000.
Esparza sued Polaris Industries, Inc., alleging that the watercraft had an off-throttle steering defect that prevented the craft from being steered once an operator released the throttle. The plaintiff asserted that Polaris was aware of the defect, which could have been fixed for $30 per vehicle. To show Polaris's conscious disregard for safety in connection with her claim for punitive damages, the plaintiff offered an internal company email in which Polaris's managing engineer wrote to company safety officials, "I just can't see us putting $30 more into the boat with our business in the state it is in."
Esparza also sued Lane, alleging that he was negligent and reckless in speeding, turning directly in front of the watercraft, and operating his boat while intoxicated. The plaintiff offered evidence that Lane's blood-alcohol content was about three times the legal limit.
The plaintiff presented evidence that she would require a licensed vocational nurse and a life-skills trainer, each at a rate of $45 per hour, and that she would need lifetime attendant care on a 24/7 basis. She also sought about $1.4 million in lost future earning capacity. Under California law, evidence of past medical expenses was limited to the $500,000 paid to satisfy the bills.
Polaris denied that the watercraft was defective and argued that the boat operators were solely at fault. Among other things, the company argued that Gutierrez was operating the Virage too fast for conditions given that there were other boats in the area and that he was negligent in handling the watercraft. The defense agreed that Esparza would require supervision but disputed that she would require the specialized care claimed.
The jury awarded $21.7 million, allocating fault at 56 percent to Lane, 24 percent to Polaris, and 20 percent to Gutierrez. Liability for noneconomic damages is joint and several in California. After allocation of fault, Polaris is responsible for approximately $11.5 million.
Citation: Esparza v. Polaris Indus., Inc., No. BC429211 (Cal., Los Angeles Co. Super. July 23, 2013).
Plaintiff counsel: AAJ members Larry Grassini, Lars C. Johnson, and Roland Wrinkle, all of Woodland Hills, Calif.

Andy Whing positive over Oxford United return despite third operation
8:50am Friday 31st January 2014 in Sport By David Pritchard, Chief Sports Reporter covering Oxford United. Follow us on twitter: @oxfordmailoufc. Call me on 01865 425458
ANDY Whing remains upbeat about returning to fitness in early March despite having a third operation in six weeks.
The midfielder had surgery in December to re-attach a tendon in his groin to the bone.
It went well, but the wound needed clearing out earlier this month.
That failed to completely solve the problem, so a plastic surgeon was needed to attach a vacuum pump.
Whing admits having a tube attached to a motor for several days was uncomfortable – and attracted some strange looks – but it appears to have done the trick and was removed last week.
He said: "I looked like a right numpty going on the train, but luckily it came off after four or five days.
"There was a big tube and when I was walking it kept getting caught on doorknobs, it was a nightmare.
"Once it's healed I can start doing exercise outside.
"I'm still hoping for early March, which was what we thought from the second op."

More than a dozen newly-passed laws impact the Texas Concealed Handgun Licensing Program. CHL instructors say at least half of those laws could directly affect East Texans.
The biggest change state legislators made when it comes to getting a concealed handgun license is the certification course itself. Previously, it was ten to fifteen hours long. Classroom training will now be a maximum of six hours long. For instructors like David Frick, that means teaching the same amount of information in less than half the time.
"Thereal kicker is going to be how we're going to be able to handle the Q and Apart," said DPS-certified firearms instructor David Frick.
Frick says it does concern him that his students may want or need more time than he can give them.
"I don't know of anything we can do at this point; legislators don't call us in and ask us anything," Frick said.
Additionally, the four hour renewal course in which CHL holders demonstrate their proficiency has been eliminated.
"That means that they can go right to their computers and they can renew their license online," he said.
Other changes include:
"That was a suspension, a 30-daysuspension, if they were cited for carrying a handgun of different category. Now the category does not matter," Frick said.
Despite the changes, Frick still encourages people to take it upon themselves to expand their handgun training.
"Absolutely," he said, "that can be a real...uh...jury saver."
The majority of these laws have already taken effect. The law eliminating the social security number requirement for a CHL doesn't start until next January.

Rose Madden
Administrative Assistant, Food and Agriculture Institute
Rose is the new part-time Administrative Assistant for the Food and Agribusiness Institute. She provides administrative support to Erika French-Arnold and Greg Baker. Together, with a great team of student assistants, Rose helps coordinate speaker events, the annual dinner, marketing the FAI concentration within the MBA program and to undergraduate students, plan immersion trips, field trips, seminars, and conferences. While not working at FAI, Rose splits her time as the Organic Garden Manager at the Forge Garden, SCU's educational and demonstration garden.
Rose was born in Vermont, and raised on Nantucket Island, Massachusetts.She developed a love for nature, horticulture, and gardening at an early age and worked as a landscape-gardener during the summers. She attended Santa Clara University for her undergraduate education, earning degrees in Political Science and Environmental Studies (class of 2009). During her senior year she traveled abroad with the School for Field Studies and spent three months in rural Kenya. In Kenya she studied the impacts of tourism, wildlife populations, environmental degradation, and socio-economic challenges on the local people. Learning about, and witnessing the struggles of developing nations first hand, especially in the context of agriculture and economic development, impacted Rose's course of study and career choice.
Upon returning from Kenya, Rose began interning and volunteering at Full Circle Farm, a non-profit, community-based farm in Sunnyvale, CA. She was hired as the Assistant Farm Manager, and catapulted into the role of Farm Manager a year-and-a-half later, when the former Farm Manager resigned. In the four years she spent managing organic crop production at Full Circle Farm, Rose developed a strong understanding of the economic, social, political, and of course, agricultural knowledge that goes into running a farm and a non-profit organization. She helped Full Circle Farm grow its production buy 40%, developed new fundraising events and strategies, and was a lead project manager for a $100k capacity building grant.
Now back at Santa Clara University, Rose is excited to apply her community development and agricultural skills to her new roles in the Food and Agribusiness Institute and at the Forge Garden. She intends to go back for her MBA and continue to work in fields promoting organic agriculture, local food security, and ecological health.

In the aftermath of Monday's parasailing incident, the focus turns to regulation. What practices are in place to prevent these tragedies, if any and who is ultimately responsible?
News 13 talked exclusively to the world's leading safety expert on parasailing, who had strong opinions to share.
Mark McCullough is veteran of the sport with more than 30 years experience. He's the inventor of modern parasailing technology, and an expert witness for every parasailing fatality case since the 1970s.
Tuesday, he viewed that shocking footage of Monday's accident that has circulated YouTube.
"Now, in watching that video tape that was online, clearly that weather was not parasailing weather," said McColloh of the storm clouds and winds visible in the clip.
The Chairman of the Parasail Safety Council said regulations should have been in place to keep operators from flying that parasail on Monday; but currently, there are no laws that restrict flying due to bad weather or equipment inspections.
"There are some consensus standards nobody can agree amongst industry operators. There's a lot of discrepancy," said McColloh.
He said it gets down to operator integrity.
In this case, the operator is Aquatic Adventures and boat captain, Tyler Churchwell.
While no charges have been filed for this incident, the company is at the center of two lawsuits; one for alleged negligence in poor weather conditions, resulting in injury.
Churchwell has faced his own maritime infractions. He's previously charged with careless operation of a vessel, operating a water craft without a flotation device and twice with the improper towing a skier.
"Up until a month ago the just got a slap on the wrist or got their license taken away and they would get a small fine. Now, you can do jail time. You can become a convicted felon," said McColloh.
That is if the rider is killed or seriously injured.
McColloh referenced a 2013 case out of St.Thomas, which found the boat captain and parasail company owner guilty of a felony following the death of one of their riders.
It's a warning said Panama City personal injury attorney, Wes Pittman.
"If the skies are getting very dark and ominous looking, or rain is coming down, they're put up in fog or in high winds. It's a recipe for disaster," said Pittman.
It's a disaster he said could have and should been prevented.
Two matching bills in the Florida Legislature were proposed in 2011 and 2012 to strengthen safety regulations for parasailing. Both died in committee.
Currently, the FAA regulates parasails as kites, but that's only in the air.
When on a boat at least three miles from shore it's the Coast Guard's jurisdiction, and when you're three miles out, jurisdiction belongs to the Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission.
It makes regulating the sport quite the conundrum according to McColloh. He said parasail operators often receive waivers, allowing them to operate at the will of the boat captain.

Winchester civic chiefs set to hold council tax
3:48pm Tuesday 12th February 2013 in Winchester
WINCHESTER civic chiefs propose to freeze their council tax increase for the second year running.
The ruling Conservative group on the city council, led by Keith Wood, wants to keep the average band D charge at £126.27.
A report on the proposed tax will go to the Cabinet meeting tomorrow (WED). The full council is due to make a decision on February 21.
Hampshire County Council is due to set its tax on the same day, with the fire service following on February 24.
By not imposing an increase, the city council would be set for a windfall as the Government has pledged to give a grant equivalent to the council having set a one per cent increase.

The North Carolina Department of Justice announced a former Wayne County deputy was arrested on several counts of obstructing justice and destroying evidence.
Randy Avon Thompson surrendered to SBI agents at the Wayne County Magistrate's Office, the DOJ said. Thompson faces four counts of obstructing justice and four counts of stealing, altering and destroying evidence.

Patricia Watson Shaw, a native and longtime resident of Mt. Vernon, died on Oct. 24, 2013, in Boonton, N.J. She was 86 years old. Private services will be held at a later time in Mt. Vernon.
The daughter of Harold G. Watson and Dorothy Emmerson Watson, she spent her early years in Springfield while her grandfather, Louis Lincoln Emmerson, served as Governor of Illinois.
She attended Walnut Hill School in Natick, Mass., and Northwestern University in Chicago. After World War II, she married John Livingston Werner and had two children, John and Hank. In 1956, she married Samuel Leslie Shaw and gave birth to twins, Gregory and Leslie.
She and her husband Sam were married for more than 50 years. They loved socializing and sailing and touring the Bahamas on their boat. Pat also had a keen interest in education and helping disadvantaged children. She served several terms on the Mt. Vernon Township High School school board. She also launched Project Excel, a volunteer tutoring program, in Mt. Vernon in the mid-80s.
When she and her husband retired to St. Simons, Ga., she worked with St. Simons Presbyterian Church to organize a tutoring and mentoring program for children in St. Simon's Elementary School. She also supported the church's efforts to help homeless people and served in the Stephen Ministry.
In 2010, she moved to Boonton, N.J., where her daughter Leslie lives. She served as a volunteer tutor with the Suburban Cultural Education Enrichment Program (SCEEP) at the Community Church of Mountain Lakes until her declining health forced her to stop. She supported Roots & Wings, an organization dedicated to helping former foster children make the transition to independent living. She also wrote a humor column—"Standing Pat"—for the newsletter of the Victoria Mews Assisted Living Facility.
Pat was an optimist. She loved life. She developed strong friendships with people who admired her spirit, strength of character and kindness wherever she went. And she believed in the importance of lifelong learning, studying navigation, marine biology, foreign languages, art, music, history and theology at different times in her life. Most of all, she was deeply devoted to her family.

has launched Giotto Spot 400 CMY, a brand new moving head projector designed for use in high-profile entertainment applications, in concerts, theatres and television studios. Giotto Spot 400 CMY offers the most advanced features in its class, including 400W hot re-strike MSR lamp, 11°-22° motorized zoom, advanced CMY colour generation system + 1 colour wheel with 6 colours and white, 2 rotating indexable gobo wheels and 1 animation wheel, linear iris, linear frost, linear CTO filter, 1 rotating prism, electronic ballast, absolute silent operation and cooling.
Giotto Spot 400 CMY is fitted with a 400W discharge lamp, used along with an optical group that gives extraordinary luminous power (12,000 Lux at 5 m.), the ideal choice for the countless applications in which a less powerful fixture would be insufficient and a more powerful one excessive. The electronic ballast (90-245V / 50/60Hz) ensures bright flicker-free light. The motorized 11°- 22° zoom gives beam angles otherwise only obtainable with more expensive fixtures.
SGM's Giotto Spot 400 CYM
Giotto Spot 400 CMY offers lighting designers an advanced CMY mixing colour system made of 3 palettes, which allows to obtain a uniform light beam and an infinite range of shades, from the most saturated to the softest colours, with efficient control of their tones; The CMY system is integrated by a linear CTO filter and a further colour wheel with 6 colours + white. Giotto Spot 400 CMY has a comprehensive series of features to create a wide variety of lighting effects: 2 customizable gobo wheels (8 interchangeable rotating indexable gobos + white each), one interchangeable animation wheel, motorized focus, linear iris, 1 multi-facet rotating prism, etc.
Giotto Spot 400 CMY was designed paying great attention to absolute silent operation and cooling, a key priority for theatre and television applications. The head movement and the fixture's internal mechanism also have an extremely low noise level. Cooling is via convection, thanks to the mechanical connection of the dichroic reflector with a metal heat sink which disperses heat towards the rear of the fixture; two very low-speed fans are only triggered when necessary, ensuring sufficient air circulation for perfect fixture operation even with a high surrounding temperature (up to 50°C).
A phonometric test in an anechoic chamber of a Giotto 400 made by Istituto Giordano S.p.A. shows a noise level of 31.8 dB at 1 mt. Giotto Spot 400 CMY is powerful and versatile, yet compact and light weight; in fact, the fixture can be easily transported and installed by a single operator, thanks to the practical handles and 'Fast Lock' hanging clamps. User-friendly maintenance is ensured by facilitated head opening and easy access to internal components; relamping can be done rapidly without moving the lamp holder.
SGM has also launched the Palco, an architectural fixture for indoor and outdoor use (insulation degree: IP65) with avant-garde technology and unusual, particularly stylish lines that enable it to blend harmonically into the architecture and scenarios being illuminated. The fixture's main innovation is its use of a series of high-power Luxeon LEDs as a light source (with RGB colour mixing - 5 blues, 20 greens and 24 reds).
Both products will be seen at ProLight and Sound in Frankfurt, Germany, in March 2004.

The Bears are 0-for-4 in their attempts to sign a quarterback after backup QB Caleb Hanie's shoulder injury suffered against San Diego on Saturday will keep him out of at least one preseason game.
Todd Collins joined Trent Green and Damon Huard as veteran quarterbacks rejecting offers from the Bears, and a league source told ESPN Chicago that Josh McCown has been ruled out as a backup option.
The quarterbacks being courted by the Bears are worried that Chicago just plans to keep Jay Cutler and Hanie on their final roster, meaning they would just be filling a need for a few weeks in the preseason. Rookie QB Dan LeFevour is the current third-stringer, and he's likely to be on the practice squad when the season begins.
NFL.com reported that Collins' agent, Brad Blank, asked for a modest signing bonus and the Bears declined, offering no guaranteed money to any of the veterans.

Reviews by Andreji:
3.38/5 rDev -8.4%
The Hd100B enjoys a fabulous location in downtown berlin, in a fantastically calm passage of the restless Potsdamer Platz. but the place itsel is a bit too austere for my taste, no ambience at all, outside you'd feel as in a prefabricated mall cafe and inside a prefabricated hotel restaurant. the service was no good either; even though perhaps 4 or 5 tables were currently busy (for the 5 or 6 waitresses) our sitting outside still drew some looks of ennuyance and delayed service.
The menu is very poorly translated, and even the specs in the menu are highly incomplete. There are, in fact, 100 beers, but the list is inflated by numerous less-than-amazing specimens although they do retain some brilliant german beers, like salvator, paulaner roggen, schlenkerla among others. i was amazed not finding koelsches or alts.
food, while highly expensive, was very good- we tried the goulasch and the roasted camembert. the eisbein someone ordered in another table was nice looking, too.
all in all, pricey with a tone of tourist trap-ism but not an entirely mediocre experience in the thriving downtown berlin.

Have visited the Charlottenburg bar on a couple of occasions, most recently this spring
Yes - it's a bit gimmicky and some of the '100' beers (in reality it's not likely to ever be 100 as my friends and I have requested a couple that weren't in stock!) are beers you wouldn't bother with on a trip to Deutschland (ie Guinness!)
but there are a few interesting German beers that you may not find in other bars in Berlin
Both times I've visited we've sat outside in the beer garden and people watched, it's a fairly lazy/quiet back street to be honest!
Charlottenburg is a 10/15 minute train journey from Berlin Hbf, and the venue is 7 or 8 minutes walk from Charlottenburg station
On both my visits, we've been stopping on the Kurfurstendamm, so the Haus der 100 Biere was on the way to the station to access central Berlin
Like many of my other reccomendations of my reviews - not worth going out of the way for, but if you're in the area for whatever reason , pop by!

I visited this place under recommendation of reviews on this site. As it's supposed to be one of the prime watering holes for many a Berliner, I decided to pay It a visit during my week there. The abundance of plants definitely attracts a good amount of wasps during hot weather, but despite having to swat at the pesky little buggers constantly, I'd say the outside terrace of Mommsen-eck is quite a nice place to be hanging out on. Decent selection of mainstream German and Belgian bottles with a few from other parts of the world, but don't expect anything from a tiny microbrewery to rock your world on this beer list. As a previous review stated, most joy in this place is to be found in the tap list. For those wanting to pay a strategic visit: every Sunday, all day, you can get one beer off the tap selection for only €2.50, definitely a good deal. Something else Mommsen-eck specializes in, is reasonably priced classic German food. The "two horse turds on hay" (classic Berlin meatballs on a bed of sauerkraut with coleslaw and baked potatoes) is yummy, fun (presented in a shovel) and a good meal for €11, though the coleslaw seems a tad superfluous. The menu includes lots of other Berlin specialities and the obligatory poncy Italian stuff to keep any hungry client happy. With its very reasonable prices and well-balanced synergy of beer and food, Mommsen-eck is easily a place to spend half a day without ending up completely skint. From what I've seen, I do have to say service is incredibly slow due to the clumsy outdoor layout. Going inside to place your order doesn't really help, as you will only bump into the waitress who then - friendly as ever, admittedly – urges you back to your seat.

Situated on a corner, with some tables outside this place is one of the best place to drink real german food and have good beer.
Inside there are beer bottles all over the place some are repeated but probably have more than one thousand. outside the restrooms there are interesting poster with brewers brands, german beers and all around the world beers.
The food was good, at reasonable price, theey have around 10 tap beer probably more, the waiter help to select a couple, really nice selection.
I would highly recommend it

NOTE There are TWO locations of 100 bieres -- one near Potsdamer Platz and one in Charlottenburg/berg (spelling seems to vary)
We went to the original in Charlottenburg and after visit #1 last night we are favorably impressed. VOM FASS they have Andechs Doppelbock Dunkel. VOM FASS. Did I mention its on tap? I beleive that is quite rare. Gorgeous body and lovely chocolate malt. A bit pricey at 3.85 for .4l (goblet) but YUMMY and an unexpected delight to find it here in Berlin.
Autumn menu lists pumpkin soup and several game dishes. I will update entry, but for now, this was definitely an A- experience.
On other sites I read less flattering things about the new location at Potsdamer Platz, and I beleive the new is the location that several (low rated) posts are referring to.
To get to the ORIGINAL location, closest stations are S9 Charlottenburg or U7 Wilmersdorfer Strasse. Cross under S tracks on Wilmersdorfer Strasse. On the corner, near fountain, one large block (two small ones) on your left.

Found this place on some flyer when there. Like below I was really optimistic just to be gravely disappointed. There was a heavy dominance on pilsners, and not even good ones. Lots of macro logos dominated the menu with few unique or good brews. Not really a stretch of the imagination. Atmosphere was really hampered for me as this place really leaned more toward a family restaurant than a bar. The bar area was dead and the place was clearing out early in the evening.
I ended up merging tables with a group of exchange students whom got us more attention with the wait staff, whoooom, were worthless when it came to beer knowledge. Hell, I gave up on looking through the menu at one point and just ordered 'Anything but a pilsner.' well.. thats what they brought me. The bartender was more fascinated with learning English off the Americans and talking American politics, rather than serving too. Eh, thumbs up on that... I think.

We came here with a group of friends very excited about the 100 biers. It is a very woody place, dark wood with a beautiful brass bar. The closet o' proper glassware is visible when you walk in. We found our seat and were quickly visited by a waitress with the "International" menu.
They have about 15 beers on tap. Unfortunately, most are pilsners. Now I like pilsners, and have really grown to appreciate them since I have lived here, and I understand that I am in the heart of Pils country, But this being the "House of a hundred biers" I guess I let my optimism get the best of me. I was quite disappointed. They did have a couple other styles on tap. The Hefe, a bock and some "red-blond" beer and we all tried them, but i cant say they were super fresh. they were still OK. They did have a nice bottle selection.
The food was pretty good. A friend of mine ordered the "Horse Droppings on Hay" which was a mound of sauerkraut with 2 meatballs on top, served in a giant silver shovel. Quite entertaining and quite good.
Anyway, give it a try.

This was my favorite beer bar in Berlin for three years (87-90), I revisited in 2005 and again in Jan 2007. The British sector had some good watering holes and this one is still going strong.
It is a great place to have a draught beer, 15 different (Andechs Doppelbock dunkel, Duckstein, Klostriker Schwartzbier, 6 German Pilsners, a Kolsch, Weihenstephen Hefewiessbier and some non-German beers also.) There is always a draught beer of the month at a cheap price, this visit it was Warsteiner Pils.
The bottled selection covers the world, mostly well known brews, but still very impressive, especially in Berlin, where beer choice is not a big thing yet.
The staff are all pretty young ladies, with one young lad pouring the beers for them all, he works bloody hard, the girls just look good, I hope they share their tips with him.
Very German in decor, all wood and heavy tables. The conservatory doubles the size of the place, outside drinking is also available.
The food is big, bold and good. They have specials on various nights and huge buffet breakfasts that go on until 12.00 (as well as other breakfast options), on Sundays and holidays it extends into a buffet brunch until 15.00. We shared a cheese platter on my last visit and the four of us couldn't finish it.
This is a lot better than the new place they have set up in Potsdammer Platz, this is the original and is well worth seaching out.

Jenna Bush: Texas I Do's
Jenna Bush, First Daughter, author, teacher, and bride-to-be, is sitting at a table at Da Silvano in downtown Manhattan, happily tucking into a plate of vegetable lasagna and telling me all about her upcoming May 10 nuptials to Henry Hager, a former White House and Department of Commerce aide whom she met in 2004. She tells me that he asked her to marry him last August on top of Maine's Cadillac Mountain, the first place the sun hits the United States, and how she was grumpy and mystified as to why in the world he had roused her from the tent at four o'clock in the morning to start hiking in the dark, but that then, naturally, she was thrilled. She shows me her ring, a round diamond that belonged to the groom's maternal great-grandmother, reset (with advice from her twin and "best friend," Barbara) and flanked by two round sapphires.
We look at sketches of the short Lela Rose dresses, in varying shades of chiffon, to be worn by the fourteen girls who are part of what Texans call a wedding "house party." (Barbara is the only bridesmaid.) Jenna tells me about her own dress, a "very structured" organza Oscar de la Renta gown, with embroidery and a bit of matte beading, that is "simple and elegant" with a bit of a train but somehow "still casual." There are no pictures, she says, because "I'm sort of a traditionalist and Henry's a major traditionalist, and the one thing he doesn't want is to see me beforehand or to know what the dress looks like."
She sounds like every other excited young (she is 26) woman on the eve of her wedding day, except, of course, she is not: She is the daughter of the president of the United States and only the twelfth to be married while her father is still in office. When Tricia Nixon, the sixth—and last—bride to be married in the White House, said "I do" in a 1971 ceremony for 400 in the Rose Garden, Life magazine put her on the cover and described the event as "akin to American royalty." More than 35 years later, the hunger to see the closest thing Americans will ever get to an actual royal wedding has not, apparently, abated. When the White House confirmed that Jenna would marry, one commentator, Doug Wead, author of All the President's Children, went so far as to make the tasteless claim that "only finding Bin Laden could do more" to boost her father's flagging standing in the polls. More than once, she was exhorted to "give the nation" a full-blown White House wedding.
"I did feel some pressure," she tells me. "I went back and forth a lot, and I think it's flattering that people are interested and want to be a part of it." In the end, though, with the support of her parents, she decided against a public, almost "state" event on taxpayer-funded property. "That's not really my personality. There's a glamour to it, I know, but Henry and I are far less glamorous than the White House."
Instead, she will marry at 7:30 at night (in an attempt to escape the heat) in an outdoor ceremony followed by dinner and dancing under a tent at her family's ranch in Crawford, Texas. "It's my home. I was raised in Texas, and it just felt right," she says. "It means a lot to Henry and me to be outdoors. We wanted something organic and low-key." They also wanted something fairly intimate, so to that end more than half the 200 guests will be family and the rest close friends. "My parents have been really wonderful about having only the friends who really know both of us."
Laura Bush, who planted hundreds of acres of native wildflowers and grasses at the ranch, confirms that the event will be "very natural-looking."
"We're using colors that are already in the landscape," Mrs. Bush says. "The blues of the lake, the greens of the grasses, the different colors of the wildflowers, which are predominantly lavenders and blues and yellows in May." (Hence the attendants' dresses in the same shades.) "It's not going to be black-tie, and there will be lots of fun music." The dinner itself will be seated, with the usual toasts—Barbara tells me she's been working on hers "since birth."
Practically, both mother and daughter know that in some ways it would be easier to be married at the White House. "Everything is there and done for you," Jenna says, adding that her mother did not even hire a wedding planner. "She's so aesthetically particular that she didn't want to have to tell somebody else how she wanted something to look." She laughs: "I think she forgot how busy we both are."
In addition to planning the wedding and her full schedule of official duties, the First Lady has penned a children's book with Jenna, Read All About It!, which will hit stores just two weeks prior to the wedding. Designed to encourage young students to read, the book was inspired by anecdotes from both women's teaching careers—after graduating from the University of Texas with a degree in English, Jenna taught third grade for a year and a half at D.C.'s Elsie Whitlow Stokes charter school, and she plans to return to the classroom in the fall. "My dad loved to hear all the funny stories about what my kids did in class, and then I found myself being exactly the same way when Jenna was teaching," Mrs. Bush says. "We discussed the book for a year, but Jenna really wrote it. She has a very project-oriented personality."
It was the second book for Jenna, who wrote last year's Ana's Story: A Journey of Hope after completing a UNICEF internship through Latin America and the Caribbean with her close friend (and wedding attendant) Mia Baxter, who took the photographs. The story of a badly abused, HIV-positive single mother, Ana's Story is aimed at a teenage audience and was lauded in no less than Foreign Affairs for fusing "missionary benevolence, empathetic feminism, and confessional psychology into a moving and effective call to action." While Jenna was promoting the book on Ellen, the talk-show host prodded her to call her parents at the White House—just to prove she could get through—in a clip that is now a YouTube classic.
Jenna, famously cited for underage drinking in college, was for years portrayed as the wild twin. "She has a very fun and exuberant personality," says her mother, "and I think that was sometimes seen as a party personality." Whatever the case, these days Jenna is remarkably focused and down-to-earth, and she has always been something of a homebody. She chose to stay in Austin to attend UT while Barbara went off to Yale. And when she returned from her UNICEF tour in June 2007, she moved into the residential quarters of the White House with her parents, having supper with them when their schedules allowed and taking morning yoga classes with her mother.
"Jenna is totally, totally unspoiled," says Oscar de la Renta, adding that her dress reflects that. "It is in no manner a grand dress. There is zero pretense." Jenna's fiancé, whom she still insists on referring to as her "boyfriend," says, "What I love about Jenna is that she is ready to get out and experience the world. We are both very adventurous." Indeed, before their engagement, they went on what Jenna jokingly calls the "make-it-or-break-it tour," a road trip that began in Midland, Texas, where they visited her maternal grandmother and namesake, and ended in Portland, Oregon.
When Henry, who graduates from the Darden School of Business at the University of Virginia a week after the wedding, decided to ask for Jenna's hand, he talked to Barbara first and then he went to the president, an encounter he seems to have handled with aplomb. "On that day, at that moment, he was just the father of the girl I was in love with and wanted to marry." For Jenna, the conversation came not a minute too soon. "I pressured the hell out of him," she says, grinning. "The first time he told me he loved me, three months into it, I said, 'Oh, I love you, too; don't you want to get married?' And he looked at me like, 'Who is this girl?' "
Now that the big day is finally upon her, she says she is far more interested in the future. "Both Henry's and my parents have been married forever. They've been through a lot, and not only have they stayed married, they have good marriages." She tells me her friends constantly ask her things like how she's going to wear her hair, but that so far, she hasn't let herself worry about the details that consume most brides. "It's funny because I thought I would be far more obsessed with the wedding," she says. "And I can't wait; I think it will be fantastic. But Henry and I are both more excited about afterward, you know? About being together."

The Los Angeles Dodgers are up for sale. Or, the Los Angeles Dodgers are almost up for sale. Pretty soon, their financial details will be released to interested buyers, and shortly after that, the team will be put up for auction. The winner of the auction will be the new owner of the team. It works like an auction.
We don't yet know who all is going to get involved in the bidding. We know that Mark Cuban will probably be among them. And now we know that there is another group in contention - a group with an awful lot of name power. And financial power. A lot of financial power, too. Via the LA Times:
[Magic] Johnson announced Friday that he had joined forces with Guggenheim Baseball Management, an arm of a financial services firm that controls more than $125 billion in assets, in hopes of buying the Dodgers.
The group includes Magic Johnson, Stan Kasten and Mark Walter. Johnson is known for all of his basketballness. Kasten is the former president of both the Washington Nationals and the Atlanta Braves. Walter is the CEO of Guggenheim Partners, which supports Guggenheim Baseball Management. Walter is the guy with all of the money. Johnson and Kasten both have money, but they do not have money like Walter has money.
If this group were to win the bid, here's how things would work:
- Walter would quietly provide money like a bottomless wallet equipped with a malfunctioning digital voice box
- Kasten would oversee the baseball things
- Johnson would be involved too
The LA Times reports that Johnson could help with free agent recruiting, like he used to with the Los Angeles Lakers. Maybe that could work, but I dunno, basketball isn't baseball and time has passed.
Johnson: And that's why I think you should sign with the Los Angeles Dodgers!
Pujols: I have a very limited understanding of who you are.
Pujols: Did you ever play baseball or do anything with baseball?
Pujols: Are you really just allowed to go by 'Magic'?
That's the snark, and here's where I point out that Johnson has been a tremendously successful businessman since retiring from the NBA. He could conceivably do a lot of good for the Dodgers, and, obviously, he's impossibly popular in the area, which couldn't hurt. The Dodgers have a wounded image in Los Angeles, thanks in large part to Frank McCourt and the Bryan Stow incident, and the presence of Magic Johnson might help to repair what was once a more devoted, passionate bond.
Major League Baseball, certainly, wouldn't be opposed to having an icon like Johnson involved, and beyond him, Kasten has a proven record of knowing what he's doing, and Walter has a proven record of having a lot of money, so much money. This looks like something of a dream team swimming in the beclouded pool of potential bidders.
But of course, this isn't up to Major League Baseball. The Dodgers will be up for auction, meaning the Dodgers will presumably be sold to whichever individual or group makes the highest bid. That could end up being Guggenheim Baseball Management, but it could also easily not, so there are no guarantees here. Magic Johnson and the Dodgers? Maybe. Possibly even probably. But definitely not definitely. That was an annoying sequence of words to write and probably read.
