Best of 2009 : My Favorite Things of the Year!
Best of 2009 : My Favorite Things of the Year!
Oct 30, 2009
Tazo Refresh Tea
I've never met a mint tea I didn't like, and this one is among the best (though, in truth there's a convenience factor as well, since it's what starbucks carries). In the past year my cup of refresh tea (actually an herbal blend, not a true tea) has become a daily addiction. It does wonders to settle the stomach - whether from stress or other stomach upset, and tastes great without any sweetener. Plus it's caffeine free which is a necessity for me. Tip - if you get the Venti size at sbux, get two bags.
Wahoo's Fish Taco
This has become a weekly haunt for my family. With the brown rice and tofu additions to the menu, plus the very fresh and tasty fish, we can get a great meal that pleases the whole family, relatively quickly, and still eat healthy. They are super kid friendly, and even though it's a chain there's an awesome mom & pop neighborhood feel that keeps us coming back every week! Value is reasonably good as well. Plus, you can sticker the place wall to wall ... as I've done to my local shop with
stickers : )
Sharp DT510 720p DLP Home Theater Projector
Gotta give huge props to my husband for this GENIOUS idea. It's the best addition we've ever made to our home entertainment options. Not the cheapest thing... but worth every cent! The quality is fantastic, and the screen he got to go with it is HUGE!! (i.e. the entire wall). It also rolls up nicely to disappear (revealing our flatscreen which actually winds up looking smallish after you start at the huge wall-sized screen for a while). It's seriously like being in a movie theater. We also take it outside for backyard screenings in the summer. Too fun... drive in at your own house?! With the price of babysitters, and box office tickets, we recouped the cost of this baby in no time. Tip: toggling between projecting from your cable/DVR, DVD/playstation, and/or computer requires some relatively good knowledge of home electronics and a good "switcher" (or that's what I think I've heard my husband call it ; )
Amazon.com Subscribe & Save
I'd imagine there are a plethora of products this service would come in handy for -- personally, it's something I couldn't live without for having diapers and wipes shipped to our house. Not having to run out for late night diaper runs is priceless, and they really have thought of everything. Free shipping plus a discount put the service right over the top for efficiency and benefits. They make it incredibly easy to change the ship dates - make it sooner, or push it back, or skip one, all with no charge and just one click. Fantastic idea and awesome for busy families on the go.
See the full review, "
Great service for bargains AND convenience, plus current special! 30% off Diapers & Wipes
Oh, how I love Etsy. Need to do a full review for sure. How cool to get fantastic quality, handmade, totally original products -- AND be supporting small independent craftsmen and women?!? It just doesn't get any better. They have everything under the sun, but my obsession is the baby / kids clothing. SO CUTE!! We get so many compliments it's borderline ridiculous. And shockingly, few people recognize the site when I tell them that's where we got whichever fun frock they're commenting on. They have killer jewelry too, among many other things. Tip: If you make anything handmade, you should look into being a seller for sure.
iPhone 3G Visual Voicemail
I think even the most avid mac lover has somewhat of a love-hate relationship with their iPhone. It's so genious in so many ways, and also so flawed in several others. One feature that's beautifully executed though, is the visual voicemail. I only wish it offered a tally of the number of hours saved from not wasting time skipping through messages, replaying for missed phone numbers, backing out to then dial the call back number... the list goes on. Voicemail is notoriously inefficient, and this idea has seriously revolutionized that issue. Tip: Even once you've deleted a message, you can still access it by going into the deleted messages screen.
Crocs for Kids Cayman Sandal
Gotta admit, I was very cynical when this seeming yuppie craze hit the scene. They're rather strange looking after all. I've now come to LOVE them.. for my toddler that is. Not sure you'd catch me in a pair however. For kids though, they're super functional and versatile. They take a true beating, which most kids shoes can't claim.. not matter how pricey they are. Washing off everything from paint to mud, and dog poop to potty-training accidents is a total breeze. Well worth the price, and they also don't seem to get outgrown as quickly as other shoes. Tip: I've heard from several sources these aren't great for developing feet in early walkers. They do sell them in sizes for 1 year olds, but I'd hold off until at least 2yrs old - and even then they shouldn't be used for primary footwear all day long or on the playground, where secure sneakers are still best.
English Mastiff
Ok, caveat: I'm a big dog kinda girl. We had a St Bernard for 14 years (I know, amazing for a large breed, right?!) - and I'm a huge fan of the "gentle giant" breed. The Saint's aren't cut out for warm weather though, so we tried a Mastiff for our next dog... and he is AWESOME. He has no idea how big he is (currently 115lbs @ 9 mos), so that can be a little much w/ them barreling around. BUT he's so docile and laid back, great with our toddler (incredibly tolerant and patient with kids!), super loyal, not overly barky (only when needed ; ), and very well behaved (with exception of some typical puppy chewing). Love Love Love.
Nissan Murano
When my lease ended this year, I shopped around and came to the conclusion that I already owned the perfect vehicle for my needs and lifestyle. With under 20K miles on it, buying out my lease made total sense, and my fantastically reliable, comfy, super-luxurious-for-the-$$ car is mine for keeps. If they'd just make a hybrid already!
"Family Time" by Ziggy Marley
Probably my favorite kid's music discover of the year, by far.
See the full review, "
Fantastic music I'd listen to even if I didn't have a kid!
This may be obvious.. but it's changed my life dramatically in the past year, so I had to include it. It's simply not scaleable to keep in touch with nearly as many people in my life without this killer communication tool. I keep my network intentionally as small as possible, which makes it work best for me. For all the reasons I didn't understand the glory of texting before I tried it, Facebook had the similar effect. There's just something fantastic about communicating with everyone you know without them having to be available at the same given time.
Barack Obama
Perfect? No. Inspiration beyond belief and a presence unlike any we've seen in politics in decades? Sorry, just can't argue that one. Personally, he's given me more thought provoking moments and also moments of joy than any politician in my lifetime.
Michelle Obama
As a working mom, and a bi-racial woman, Michelle resonates with me on so many levels I've lost count. Much like I feel about her husband, I'm so grateful to have a figure like this to experience first hand.
Architec Gripper 5 x 7" Cutting Board
Who knew that a "bar board" would be my favorite kitchen tool of the year?! It's just an ultra-mini cutting board, but if you use the cutting board constantly, as I do, it's awesomely convenient. Cooking for a young child means lots of small portions, for snack time or fixing lunches etc. - and this is perfect for those situations. Without bothering to pull out the big full size board, you can just whip this little guy out and also wash in seconds. Mine rarely makes it back into the cupboard, and just sort of lives in the dish drain - I use it that often. Tip: buy a couple, because they do get groove marks from the knives after a lot of use.
The Art Zone Children's Studio
This place is just pure genious. It's the most creative place I've ever seen for kids to do every possible type of art you can imagine. Super free form, yet structured enough, wonderfully creative atmosphere with paint splattered everywhere, and every toddler's dream... a MUD ROOM! The staff is excellent, and you can host b'day parties there as well. Every neighborhood should have one of these on the corner (for now though, it's just a tiny, independent little treasure).
There really are no words for how passionately I feel about the benefits of having a great doula involved in your pregnancy and birth. I had the chance this year to witness the hugely positive impact for some friends and family... and the total opposite for some who chose to pass on the idea. In the end, it was a reminder of all they have to offer and encouraged me to help however I can to get doula's integrated into the standard care all moms to be receive.
See the full review, "
A Doula : The MUST HAVE for Expecting Parents
A must-have compliment to the aforementioned home projector ; ) For parents who don't get out to the theater much ... or just movie fans in general, this has become like having a cell phone and internet for me... just gotta have it. They make it so easy, so convenient, and so affordable - what is possibly not to love?!
Trader Joe's
Just plain couldn't live with out TJ's. I'm there at least once a week, if not a few times, and am totally addicted to getting convenient, healthy, and super affordable fare for my family. The disappointing downward spiral of the produce hasn't even been enough to break my habit (instead I'm now also addicted to farmer's markets!). The staff is a huge draw for me too, as well as the community feel.

I Heart Trader Joes
Sweet Potato Fries
I love french fries. Always have, always will. Also love any combo of salty & sweet. Feeling like I'm making a healthy-ish twist on a junk food is brilliant, plain and simple. Since these have become standard fare on many more menus, I'm even more addicted. Plus, trusty Trader Joes has a frozen variety you cook in the oven.
Probably not an exaggeration to say my experience with Lunch has been life changing (both working for and using the site ; ) The way I look at self expression, social media, and being open minded have all been really impacted, not to mention the TON of new things I've learned from the contributions on the site. And we've barely scratched the surface of Lunch's potential!
I know it's not newsbreaking, but nonetheless, Target just freaking rules. They've not lost their knack for providing stylish, affordable, and innovative products across all categories. Score of the year ... ruby red sparkling slippers for my daughter's 11th hour Dorothy costume on Dress Like Your Favorite Literary Character Day at school. Who carries toddler sized ruby red slippers year round?! Score for Tar-jay!
One of my favorite songs of the year... totally sappy and luvvy dovey, but super sweet. It even made the soundtrack for some of our families home movies... a guaranteed tearjerker in that context ; )
Houston's (Manhattan Beach)
I've had a funny progression with this restaurant. From staying as far away as I could, with perceptions of it being too dark and too pricey, to frequenting multiple times a week. Crazy? No, what's crazy is the quality of the food - it'll darn near ruin you for all other restaurants. Impeccable servers as well. Must haves: Mexico City Soup, Tortilla Soup, seasonal veggie sides, ceasar salad w/ chicken (and the best croutons you've had in your life!). Delish.
Tiny Prints
In the interest of disclosure, you should know that I LOVE paper. Yes, just paper in general. Particularly, contemporary, well designed, cool stationary and cards. I'll easily pay $7 or $8 for an embellished, ultra creative, original card. To that end... meet Tiny Prints! Great web site that offers customized photo cards (and the whole slew of invites, etc) with cool, modern design. Excellent customer service, great, easy interface w/ ability to save drafts. Been doing holiday cards there for a few years running now.
This will make my list perennially.. and I've concluded this year that there is almost nothing that it doesn't compliment. I've even started adding it to meatball sandwiches!!! Don't scoff until you try it, seriously.
Yo Gabba Gabba!
Very fun find, and a must see if you have young children. Crazy as it is, you won't find something much more original!

Don't Miss This Toddler TV Treat
Almay Oil Free Eye Makeup Remover Pads
A fantastic find for contact lens wearers! Totally not irritating to the eyes- I've used these religiously for years now. I'd say they do a pretty great job of removing mascara - though sometimes it takes a couple to get the job done. Mainly love the convenience of the packaging and that they don't have too strong of a scent (very mild). A great staple for your make up kit!
True Blood
Well, really just Season 1 of True Blood... Season 2 was awful. Nonetheless, if you didn't catch the first set, get them on DVD. Very creative and well done in that initial season.

Compelling & Oh-So-Smart: Fangs as Civil Rights Issue
Izze Sparkling Soda
Yum and Yum. Got onto these while prego and searching for something fizzy and caffeine free. The are delicious, it's just that simple. Plus cute packaging and a ton of flavors.
Excedrin Migraine Caplets
I sort of have a love hate relationship with these pills ; ) Sadly, I've had a surge of frequent migraines (boo!), and after experimenting w/ the suggested 2 pill dose, wound up discovering that ONE pill does the trick. The full dose will really jack you up... especially if you're not used to taking caffeine in large quantities. Not cool to trade a headache for a stomach ache and jitters ; ) BUT great to have a non prescription option that actually works... when used in moderation.
Diet Hansen's Soda
I'm so very into the pomegranate flavor, however while updating the wiki just now I saw that this soda contains Splenda. Blech! How could I not have noticed that. Buzzkill -- but other than that these taste great and actually don't have that typical Splenda aftertaste. Plus caffeine free is always a win for me.
What did you think of this list?
Fun to Read

Yes! I'm psyched to finally see this list - it's so all-encompassing! Glad to see the Refresh tea made the top the list - it certainly is delicious! I'm really interested in checking out Tiny Prints..it sounds awesome as I too LOVE paper (I'm sort of a pack-rat too, which doesn't help...) I'd love to know if you recommend any great paper stores in the Los Angeles area, too! :)
November 05, 2009
omg, the paper stores here have gotten me into MUCH trouble. my mom-guilt now prevents me from blowing quite as much $ as I used to on stationary and cards.. but i'd love to live vicariously through you! check out Card De A in redondo, very cute, as well as Pulp on la brea, and Soolip over near robertson. also, Christie in manhattan beach is awesome and there's Wrapsody is in marina del rey... oh there are just so many good ones! the recently put a Papyrus in MB too - that one's a chain and has a web site as well. another fun find is to track down the boutiques from places like chicago, and see which have online stores as well. have fun!
November 06, 2009
Uh uh...looks like my bank account is about to be in jeopardy :) I can't resist cute cards and paper keepsakes (knick knacks?) Thanks for the tips!

Could you PLEASE talk to @
about the benefits of the Sharp Projector?? I feel like that's the last missing piece in putting together my ultimate home theater! I especially like the part about how it saves money on babysitters. "We're losing money by not having one of these things!"
October 31, 2009
I could do a full testimonial, to be sure... in fact, next time you guys pay a sitter why don't you just come over to our living room for a movie instead! That'll sell her for sure ; ) Totally not kidding either - that's a legit offer!

Great list... this could actually be Oprah's list. But Lunch barely beat the excedrin migrane pills which you have complained have made you sick?? come on!!

I honestly fizzled out on the rankings after the first few... I'm not as stack-rank-minded as you are ; ) That said, I started playing with the ranks a bit just now, since you had a valid point there.

Great list, Melissa! There's a lot of goodies on here, some of them I've become slightly addicted to because of you (Etsy) but, you didn't have Glee on here which is the other addiction that I have because of you ;p
October 31, 2009
thx! Glee is falling a bit off it's mark for me as the season wears on. It's still a fun ride, for sure... but couldn't quite make the faves of the year cut ; )

Jeff Siegel's Santa Anita Analysis (Sunday, Apr. 15, 2012)
Sunday's program begins with a bottom rung claiming sprint for fillies and mares that offers two short-priced contenders among the six starters. #4 Queenie Marini, runner-up in her last pair, gets an extra half furlong to work with today and this late-running sprinter will be doing her best work in the final furlong. #6 Mo Cheese drops to her lowest level ever while shortening up and returning to the main track. She lands the cozy outside post and likely will fold into an ideal pace prompting position.
The second half of the early daily double seems like a logical spot for #2 Blue Samurai to break through with a rare win. She's one-for-21 lifetime but is re-equipped with blinkers while retaining Rosario and looks capable of wearing down the front runners late.
The third race, an extended sprint for $40,000 claiming 4-year-olds, may boil down to #3 Palio Prince and #4 First Strike. The former, listed at 7/5 on the morning line, is a first-off-the-claim play for Spawr and switches to Rosario after finishing an okay third over a sloppy track he may not have cared for. He should draft into an ideal pace prompting spot in a field with little early speed. First Strike has been overmatched of late but isn't today. He's a route-to-sprint play and returns to the main track, over which he has had past success. Flores should have him rolling in the final furlong.
Maiden claimers meet over a distance of ground in the fourth race and a case can be made for at least three of the six entrants. #1 Ricsprentiousgal adds blinkers and should be on or near the lead throughout from her rail post. The O'Neill-trained filly may have been best vs. similar last time out and with clear sailing today could be along in time. #3 Freckles Galore, in the money in her last pair, won't have to improve much to beat this field and retains Bejarano. #6 Call Me Lucy has been chasing tougher, fits on speed figures, and seems very likely to improve with the switch to bug boy Flores. All three are worth using in rolling exotic play.
The fifth race is a rare maiden claimer on turf down the hillside course and this is another affair that may require a spread. #2 Fast Moka Too drops in for a tag for the first time and is a solid fit in this league on numbers. She switches to Rosario and may be quick enough to make the lead against this group. #5 Valoria is another maiden to maiden claiming dropper and should fit with these after a two month break. The Shirreffs-trained filly figures to do her best running from off the pace. We'll try to get by using just these two; you may feel the need to go a bit deeper.
#2 Bronze Beauty has been burning up the track in the morning while getting fit for her debut and the daughter of Latent Heat looks ready to win at first asking for Shirreffs in the sixth race. She lands Rosario and catches an unclassified field, so we'll put her strongly on top while also including in our rolling exotics the second time starter, #6 Magical Band, who also has been sharp in the morning of late and seems sure to benefit from having a useful experience in a fairly tough race last month.
In the seventh race, #4 Obviously was an unlucky loser in a very promising U.S. debut for Mitchell last month and likely will be a short price to make amends today in a similar downhill turf dash for conditioned allowance sprinters. He's come back to work impressively since that race and seems capable of producing a winning late kick. #6 Luckarack, first off the claim for Ted West, retains Rosario, has looked extra sharp for his new connections in the morning and has consistently posted very strong speed figures lately. He was stakes placed down the hill during the autumn meeting and may be a better type now. These are the two we'll be including on our rolling exotic tickets.
Trainer Bob Baffert has the eighth race surrounded with a pair of very talented (and uncoupled) fillies. #3 Contested broke her maiden for fun recently and did it with a huge figure; she'll be double tough right back and surely will be a very short price. #4 Tiz the Tide also looked quite good graduating earlier this meeting – though not as quickly as her barnmate – but the daughter of Tiznow has plenty of upside and should make a run for it.
#2 Dylan Donnelly looks ready to graduate in the finale, a mile turf event for state bred maidens. The son of Tribal Rule was nosed out in a similar affair last month while nearly three clear of the rest and has trained well since for Mitchell. He'll be a short price and deservedly so.

Beginning Friday, expect large crowds in downtown Atlanta. In fact, police estimated up to 190,000 extra visitors a day through the weekend because of several big events.
Ringling Brothers and Barnum & Bailey Circus will perform through Monday at Philips Arena. Morning and evening shows are scheduled for the weekdays. Saturday and Sunday will include a third, afternoon performance.
Monster Jam is scheduled to take place Saturday at 7 p.m. at the Georgia Dome. Drivers of the world's most popular monster trucks perform big stunts, typically to sell-out crowds.
The Georgia World Congress Center will also host two large events: the Bronner Brothers International Hair Show and the Cheersport Nationals. Both events attract thousands.
Residents offered visitors their advice for navigating the city.
"Obey the parking meters. Big weekends like, the metermaids love to make money," chuckled Bobby Sauer.
In a written statement, Atlanta police reminded people to take MARTA downtown or carpool. If taking your car, don't leave valuables inside, such as cash or electronics.
Extra police officers will patrol downtown.

Product Details There may not be a big selection of womens bug costumes, however this lady bug outfit is one of the most adorable and yet sexy Halloween costumes available. The look is very feminine, depicting one of the most well known spotted insects. Forget about scary Halloween costumes this year because cute is in! The look is easily recognizable as well. The design of this bug costume focuses on black spots. A pair of red stockings complete with round, black spots rise well over the knee, and include a single white and yellow flower shape on the top of each cuff. Find your favorite black heels to go along with the color scheme. The short costume dress includes a layered black skirt, with plenty of frills and volume. The shiny, red bodice features additional black spots and a strip of black across the bra area. Thin spaghetti style straps run over each shoulder and a third flower comes attached to the bust line. The adorable black antennae are bent playfully and end in big red pom poms. No insect costume is complete without a set of fluttery wings, and this one features uniquely shaped red costume wings with similar black spots!

A white 1990 Ford Econoline van with red and blue trim pulls into the parking lot.
Home. Is it defined by where you're from or where you currently live? Is it the physical hall or the feet running through it?
The beach lifestyle – its sights, sounds, colors and culture – has been steadily woven into Mike Faherty's life, so it seems fitting that he and his twin brother would create a clothing brand that reflects that endless summer experience.
At first it was mostly fishermen who headed out to "the End," unassumingly bringing in their catch of the day a few mere miles from the posh and the famous in the Hamptons.
In celebration of the American summer and our country's spirit of adventure, exploration and preservation, we are honoring the great Outer Banks – one of our nation's most distinct and scenic blends of sea and sand.
With palm fronds leaning over blue waters and deep limestone caverns opening into the earth, Tulum, Mexico, offers the treasures that the former Mayan Empire hoped to hold forever.
With the proliferation of digital recordings, music has never been more portable or easy to acquire and preserve.
A massive, abandoned fort. Sand islands. Legends of shipwrecks and treasure. It may sound like an adventure conjured up by Robert Louis Stevenson, but this is a place you can find about 70 miles west of Key West in the Gulf of Mexico.
When the summer heat beats down, our inclination is to simplify what we wear and drift toward the causal.

The 2011 legislative session is nearly over. Will Rick Scott come out a winner?
By Aaron Sharockman
Published on Friday, May 6th, 2011 at 10:07 a.m.
Florida Gov. Rick Scott will watch the 2011 legislative session end on May 6, 2011, without serious movement on many of his most prominent campaign issues.
The budget will include provisions to fund just a tiny fraction of the $459 million corporate income tax reduction that Scott proposed, and none of the school property tax cut Scott proposed.
The Legislature is unlikely to deliver to Scott Arizona-style immigration reforms like he promised during his primary campaign against former Attorney General Bill McCollum. The proposal has failed to gain traction, even in the Republican-dominated Legislature.
On pension reform, Scott wanted to make state employees direct 5 percent of their salary to their retirement, and he wanted to move workers to 401(k)-style plans. In the end, it appears he'll get 3 percent, and the traditional pensions will stay.
And the list goes on.
No two-year budget. No massive spending cuts to the Department of Corrections. And not even a full 5 percent government workforce cut.
Yet there are clear successes Scott can claim. A bill to require people receiving cash welfare assistance to first pass a drug test has passed both chambers and will head to the governor's desk.
He appears poised to receive many of the education reforms he sought -- including changes to benefit charter schools and increases in virtual learning. And Scott already has signed legislation that links teacher pay increases to their students' performance on end-of-year-exams.
PolitiFact Florida has been tracking 59 of Scott's campaign promises. As the session ends, we plan to update many of them to see how Scott fared.
Stay tuned.

In a statement to Fox13, International Paper says they are looking to expand. They did not say if they will do so at their current headquarters on Poplar.
Keeping the company local could take unprecedented incentives offered by Memphis and Shelby County. But, Memphis and Shelby County need the state's help to entice International Paper to stay.
A source close to the negotiations tells Fox13 that IP is asking for a tax break worth nearly $100,000,000. But the source says, over the course of the deal, Memphis and Shelby County would see a return on investment of more than $400,000,000.
International Paper recently purchased a company out of Austin, Texas and is considering moving that company to Memphis.
A spokesperson for International Paper said in a statement, "In an effort to meet current and future office space needs for its global headquarters, International Paper is evaluating options for additional space."
The source says IP is considering three options: adding another tower to the current facility on poplar, using land for a new facility, or moving out of town.
The source says the State of Mississippi is now jumping in to offer incentives.
And, in its statement, International Paper made it clear Memphis is not a shoe-in for continued growth for the company, saying, "We are not ready to go into detail about the evaluation process at this time, nor what those options are. We can say that this is a necessary and important step as we plan for International paper's future."
International Paper employs about 2,000 people, so getting the company to stay in Memphis and expand is a top priority for city and county officials.
In a joint statement, the mayors of Memphis and Shelby county say, "We take the position that we must do whatever we can reasonably do to retain this company in Memphis and Shelby County as a strong local partner in our business landscape."
But, the local governing bodies cannot approve this deal on their own. The state needs to approve any incentive deal over 20 years. The company also did not indicate a timeline on any decision making process.

Employee Testimonials
I like to work for an Erickson Living community because the people here are all totally dedicated to the well-being of the residents. The staff are really friendly and everyone works as a team. The atmosphere is very warm and supportive.
Peter Dawson, Certified Nursing Assistant
This is such a positive work environment with so many interesting residents to learn from. I also appreciate that the leadership trusts me to do the things that I think need to be done to assist the residents in their spiritual life. However, if I had to put it simply, I like working at Erickson Living because everything you do is appreciated and valued.
Bert Moore, Pastoral Ministries Manager
If I was to sum up the beauty of working here at Erickson Living, it would be all about the extended family we get by being here....After 6 ½ years here in the Dining Department, I have been given the opportunity to make lifetime friends and have so many wonderful moments through being a part of their everyday existence through feeding and receiving "food for thought" on a daily basis as well as feeding their stomachs. Here in dining, Erickson has given us a unique way to make work seem less than a day at the office but more like a day at the dinner table with your family.
Kevin Morrow, Service Manager
My name is Shanique Wray, and I am a certified nursing assistant. I love working at my community because the facility is clean and I am valued by co-workers, my supervisors and my director of nursing. One of the other significant reasons why I love working for Erickson is that all the benefits are excellent for employees.
Shanique Wray, Certified Nursing Assistant
I work for a company that cares about their employees and gives them the opportunity to grow and succeed within the company, a company that cares about serving people and makes a difference in their lives. Working in the dining service, with a strong leadership and team, makes it even more enjoyable to get up and come to work every morning.
Mohammad Bayan, Service Manager
It is so hard to sum up why I like working at Erickson Living in one sentence...Erickson Living has become my second family. Between the residents and staff, I feel like I am coming to my second home when I arrive at work. I have the pleasure of enjoying the residents' life stories during my day along with sharing and meeting common goals with my co-workers. When I was a kid, I would get cranky on Sunday nights because I had to go to school on Mondays...now as an adult I get excited on Sunday nights because I am going into a week of new experiences, challenges and fun!
Danielle Hillman, Reoccupancy Manager

Meaningful Consultation
by Chris Bowers, Mon Sep 12, 2005 at 12:47:44 PM EDT
Yeah, that's a crossword puzzle.
Update: The more I think about it, the more important I think this picture is. All day, Republicans pounded home the idea that they were all already going to vote for Roberts, and that Roberts didn't have to really say anything during the hearings. In other words, their main message today was that the hearings are pointless, both because we won't learn anything from them and because Roberts will be confirmed anyway. For example, check out this editorial from the Washington Times:At the risk of heresy, I want to ask a simple question: Why are we having these hearings? After all, there is little doubt Judge Roberts will be confirmed. Unless he has a secret history that will, miraculously, soon be revealed, the final result -- already confirmation by a solid majority -- is a foregone conclusion. Even the votes against Judge Roberts -- such as Sen. Barbara Boxer's promise to vote "no" unless he expressly agrees to uphold Roe v. Wade -- are unlikely to change.(...)
So, again, why have hearings? Senate votes aren't affected, and history demonstrates the Senate is perfectly capable of judging a nominee without them -- if it wants to. Yet, in this case, we will hear not only from the nominee, but also, more importantly, from all the interest groups, pro and con, vitally interested in the nomination.
And that, I think, explains why we will have the hearings. They aren't for the senators, who likely know how they will vote. The hearings are for the interest groups and their constituents.This also seems to be the sentiment Coburn is trying to get across by openly completing a crossword puzzle during the hearings, live on television. The basic consrvative argument here is that the hearings are pointless--everyone should look away. There is nothing to see here.
This is a very good strategy for the Republicans in the Senate. Poll after poll has shown that the majority of America really isn't paying a lot of attention to Roberts anymore, pretty much because of Katrina. The entire Republican strategy today plays into our newfound national apathy toward the hearings.
Unfortunately, we are going a long way to playing into this stealth strategy. Throughout the progressive blogosphere, there was a surprising dearth of posts about the hearings today. Katrina posts and searches still outnumber Roberts posts and searches by a wide margin. This means we are on the brink of defeat, since the hearings for Roberts will be over on Thursday night, and the Katrina aftermath will be with us for months, if not years.
If we are going to have any shot of changing the complexion of this hearing, we in the blogosphere are all going to have to start paying a lot more attention to Roberts, and start doing this right now. Most people are undecided on Roberts, and they will remain such as long as they are not paying attention, which works for the Republicans. This is a tragedy, because in the midst of Bush's greatest failure, he is on the brink of securing his greatest victory. Come on Peoplewalk and chew gum at the same time.

Singled Out: "When You're Speaking The Truth, It's Easier To Write"
Tuesday, Sep 13, 2011 4:40PM
[SOHH highlights a single each week and offers a unique look at the song. After alternative rap group Nappy Roots opened up about the real life inspirations behind "Hey Love", East Coast spitter J-EyE tells listeners why "This Goes Out" to all of those who choose to stand tall.]
I'm not necessarily the dude that's gonna be the loudest in the room, so I use my music to [speak for me]. This track was completed in 45 minutes. When you're speaking the truth, its easier to write.
The track came together [after] being inspired by the [beat] itself and wanting to do something that kinda gives people an idea of who I am as an artist as opposed to some of the other artists that are out there.
"This Goes Out" gives my story.
There's a message in every record, regardless of the [song's] direction. I think when you listen to a J-Eye record, [you'll find] inspiration for music and life. With this particular track, its all about being yourself and not being afraid to support the artists that are being themselves, as opposed to following the hype.
Dudes that are like that are [people like] Freddie Gibbs, he's kinda on the come-up, actually he's on the cusp now. Somebody who doesn't get alot of recognition is Maino. He's definitely somebody who's being himself; he's not the best lyricist in the game but he tells his story.
J-EyE is an East Coast MC who carries a message with each song released. In addition to his previous projects and work with other artists, he recently released the project Music, Heartbreak, Humility.
Check out the J-EyE track "This Goes Out" below:

Recent Panama Reviews
Island Paradise
I was very delighted to find such a well Appointed, accommodating, yet Eco- friendly lodgings in boca del toro. The house is beautiful- open, airy rooms with wood flooring and a beautiful view from everywhere in the house. Being over the water provided a nice breeze and a restful sleep with the gentle water sounds. With the modern amenities and local flavor, I found it to be the best of both worlds! A perfect spot for a getaway!
A very nice new condo w excellent amenities
The Rio Mar condo was great. Brand new, very clean, well stocked, great location with very nice amenities. The 22nd floor balcony was wonderful. I enjoyed just watching the ever changing ocean & beach down below. Rio Mar beach has a lot of character. It is definitely the best beach in Panama for surfing & exploring caves & just enjoying the natural beauty. The owners took excellent care of us. They were always available to answer our questions. They have a very detailed notebook with info about the condo to make your stay more enjoyable. My husband was thankful for the high tech smart tv & dependable internet connection so he could work during the day. The on site restaurant was very good. The pools & public social areas were very relaxing. Rio Mar condo is close enough to the conveniences of Coronado but not too close either. It is very quiet, safe, & beautiful at Rio Mar. It was truly our home away from home. We would love to come back & would recommend this condo to friends & family.
Best Spot in Bocas
My wife and I stayed at Villa Paraiso for 8 nights. This is by far the best place to stay in Bocas. The location is perfect - on the beach, quiet and only a 5 minute taxi ride to town which cost $1.50/person. You will not find a nicer lodging option in Bocas and the Cottrell family are some of the nicest people you will ever meet. The house also comes with several complimentary perks like bicycles, snorkel gear, kayaks, and more. We highly recommend you rent a 4 wheeler from Flying Pirates (they have an exclusive to 1500 acres of jungle). We paid $200 for a 5 day rental and had a chance to see parts of the island you cannot see otherwise. Plenty of excellent dining options - be sure to check out the recommendations on TripAdvisor as that was our guide and you can't go wrong. Highly recommend!

The following was written by Candice Davenport, Public Health Nurse at the Maplewood Health Department. Davenport has a BSN degree and a Masters in Public Health and Community Health Education.
The recent occurrence of chickenpox (varicella) in our school district brings home the importance of up to date immunizations, especially in a child's developmental school age years. In order to prevent any further spread of vaccine preventable diseases like chickenpox, measles and pertussis, please follow the recommended vaccination schedule provided by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/schedules/easy-to-read/index.html. This webpage provides the recommended schedule for all age groups for infants, school age children and beyond. And yes, even moms and dads and grandparents need vaccination boosters too, even all the more important if you are caregiver of a young infant or a child with a weakened immune system.
Every year, the Maplewood Health Department conducts immunization audits at our childcare centers and schools. In partnership with our school nurses and childcare directors, we work together to ensure that all childrens' immunizations are up to date to provide 'herd immunity' among our students. The township also provides influenza vaccination clinics during the fall and winter as a service to our residents.
Vaccinations are one of the top ten achievements of public health and we have made great strides to eradicate diseases such as polio and rubella. But diseases do not stop spreading and this event highlights that in our present day, we are still vulnerable to preventable diseases like chickenpox, or pertussis, measles and other bacterial and viral diseases.
It is important to remember that if you or your child does not feel well, to please stay home if you are sick; this not only pertains to absence from school but also afterschool activities to reduce the spread of disease to others.
If you have any questions about chickenpox or the chicken pox (varicella) vaccine, go to: http://www.cdc.gov/vaccines/vpd-vac/varicella/downloads/PL-dis-chickenpox-bw-office.pdf
Finally, diseases like chickenpox in the community are few and far between in the last decade. Hard to believe when some of us can remember getting chickenpox as a rite of passage in childhood. However as with all vaccine preventable diseases, they are communicable diseases which means they can spread within a community by close contact, sneezing or coughing. There are also avoidable health complications that can occur with these illnesses.
Let's keep our children (and ourselves!) healthy. Make sure their vaccinations are up to date- at any age.

"Two million hearts for Angel Baby Shampoo and Body Wash. I have to admit I have "stolen" this from my daughter to use for myself. The smell is wonderful! It also does not dry out my (or my 18 month old's) skin!" Kirsten
"Love this product! It smells and works great. I love that it is truly toxin free so I don't have to worry about what I'm using on my baby. I highly recommend this wash and will def. be buying more." Sarah
"I am so impressed how soft and fresh it makes my little one feel, and smell. I love that it is natural so I feel like I am doing the right thing by my precious baby girl." Thea
"I have a raving review of the Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash. My daughter (19m) has had cradle cap almost since she was born. I switched to an "all natural" shampoo, hoping to help it, and it helped for a week or so but then it got worse. I just ran out of that bottle a week ago. Decided to give your shampoo a try (I liked the ingredient list), and we sold it at my work. I wasn't expecting it, but one week to the day later, the cradle cap is GONE. I didn't do anything else different, I didn't even try to pick or scrub the cradle cap, as I have in the past (it's been a stressful week and bathtimes have been short). I was shocked! Will definitely buy more and recommend it to anyone!" April
"First I wanted to let you know that originally I had been using California baby wash and lotion with Angel Baby Bottom Balm on my son. He was diagnosed with eczema- so I have to be very careful with what I use on his skin. Well- eventually I switched over to using Angel Baby Lotion and just a few days ago I switched to using the baby wash as well. My son's eczema has improved leaps and bounds- I just love how quickly I saw the improvement. When I switched to the lotion, almost all breakouts ceased. Now that I've switched to the baby wash as well, the patches have almost all disappeared! Love love love your products!" Becki
"I received this baby wash as a gift when my son was born & fell in love with it! The smell is blissfully fun & fresh, the easy-pump bottle ensures every drop is used, it rinses easily from baby's hair and body, leaving nothing but a clean, sweet-smelling baby behind! I have been known to use it in the shower, too! The best part? No chemicals or toxins to worry about! This baby wash makes bathtime super fun in our house! Wish I could give this 10 stars!!" Monica R.
"I LOVE this product [Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash]!! My kids seem to like it as well! It smells wonderfully fresh and leaves my kids' hair and skin super soft. I know the product says that it 's not 'tear-free', but the times that the soap has gotten in my kids' eyes, they have not once complained or had their eyes water up. I highly recommend this amazing ALL natural soap on every baby." Julie
"I love to crawl in our big oval tub and sink in with my two month old son and five year old daughter, after she announces, "Family bath night!!" and grabs this heady, heavenly shampoo for us all to slather on like ambrosia. Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash makes your baby's head smell even yummier than it already does (really!) and is oh-so-gentle for bathers of all ages. Highly recommend!" Erin
"I love this wash! I love knowing that it is toxin free so I know exactly what is going on my precious son. The smell is divine! Orange with a hint of vanilla. The wash is very mild and the foaming pump makes using it easier. My son had horrible eczema and I was all the time trying different products but it always came back. After learning about all the harmful toxins and ingredients of the typical baby product I made the switch to Earth Mama. My son's eczema was cleared up after using it for only a week. I truly believe that my son was have a reaction to all those harmful toxins. So glad that this product cleared up my son's eczema! It is a life saver. I will never use anything else on any of my children. :)" Brittany
"Another quality product from Earth Mama Angel Baby. I love the fact that this is both a shampoo and a baby body wash... what a time saver! Plus, my little girl smells so good when she gets out of the tub. Awesome product!" Nikki
"I have all of my children using this wash and they all love it. I wanted to make sure they weren't getting any chemicals and toxins that are in most body washes. My son especially talks about how good it smells and he loves the fresh orangey scent. I love the peace of mind knowing I am doing all I can to help their bodies grow and develop without the poisons that are in so many products today. The lather is rich and we love the pump bottles. Heavenly!" Erin G.
"My kids all have super sensitive skin. I have tried so many natural washes for them, and my middle boy always seems to have eczema (especially behind his knees). After using Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash for a few weeks now, I have noticed a huge difference in his skin. I still need to smother him in coconut oil because his is so dry, but the eczema seems to be toned down quite a bit. My oldest loves the smell! It is a great product! I recommend it to all of my clients!" Bethany
"I love Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash so much! My son thinks its so much fun to help me push the button to get the shampoo out. He is two and I have been looking for a product that will not dry out his skin, cause a rash, and/or take forever to rinse off. This product does everything I was hoping for and more. He always smells so fresh and clean after the bath or shower now and I love how easy it is to get his hair suds and wash it out. My son is not a fan of water on his face and this body wash/shampoo washes out clean and fast. I feel like he gets really clean without much scrubbing involved. It has also helped him decrease the amount of rashes he gets. I get this now for all my friends when they are expecting. I think its the best product out there for little ones. It's like I made it myself without the hassle." Kirsten L.
"This is by far the best shampoo in the world. :) I could personally smell it all day! I love the pump so you get the perfect amount and the bottle lasts so much longer. The foam is awesome so you can see how much area you've covered. It cleans marker off of arms, sticky unknown stuff off of hands, leaves your child's hair shiny and smelling fresh, and did I mention it smells amazing?" Michelle L.
"This is the only bath product we use now. My new baby girl was born December 2nd and broke out terribly whenever we used the "regular" baby wash, so I bought some Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash to try after hearing good things about it online. The price was right, especially since I ended up lucking out and catching it on sale ... it seemed like it was meant to be ;) Anyways, I bathed her that night and absolutely loved the gentleness and the ease of a foam. Oh and the smell... mmmmm this is what baby girls are made of :) We now do not buy anything else for our daughter, and now use the Angel Baby Lotion, too. Anytime someone holds her they comment on how sweetly she smells. <3 Love the product and recommend it to everyone, not only babes with sensitive skin!!" Melanie S
"I love the Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash! The best thing I like about it is that it is completely all natural, and it does not dry the skin out at all! It is also very moisturizing; we can wash with it without having to put lotion on afterwards! And a plus, it smells great!" Taci
"We love this baby wash so much! It smells lovely and the all natural ingredients are a MUST! It foams easily so I rarely use more than 3 squirts to wash my baby. That makes it last a long time! I buy it as a baby shower present for all my new mom friends!" Krista
"Best product I've used for baby wash. Have to order this from America because haven't seen this in our stores in Europe. Value is just great and one 160ml bottle lasts months." Angel
"I love this baby wash!
Aside from the intoxicatingly delicious smell, the super soft foaminess cleans my little girl's sensitive skin very gently.
My daughter and I both have a skin condition called Keratosis Piloris, and it causes harmless (but embarrassing) bumps on our arms and legs. I was hoping she wouldn't get this hereditary condition from me, but she did. Most soaps can worsen the harsh feeling of the bumps. The Angel Baby wash actually helps soften the feel, and for me, makes me less self-conscious about them! I'm excited to try the lotion, which I just ordered to see how it handles these annoying bumpies.
Thank you Mama!" KaciMama
"Very gentle but also does wonders. My daughter had a little cradle cap, I tried everything that people told me... put oil etc. This was the only thing that didn't irritate it and also really helped it heal. And a little bit goes a long way." lil11ro
"This is one of my favorite EMAB products. It cleans great, smells wonderful, and I don't have to worry about any nasties in my daughter's bath. It smells so wonderful, and is so gentle on the skin I use it for myself too!" Ilanna
"I just wanted to let you know how much I love your products and teas. ... My most recent favorite is the Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash. It's not just for little Angel Babies. I had been searching for a reasonably priced 100% natural face wash for a very long time. I have always loved face washes that have the instant foam feature and ones that smell just as good as they work. So I figured I would give it a shot. It's PERFECT! It smells amazing (literally lifts my mood every time I use it), it gently & effectively cleans my ultra sensitive skin and it dose not leave it feeling dried out and parched like traditional face washes. It's the only thing my husband and I use on our face! And I also love that I can double it as my body wash and my daughter's too! (So that's less packaging taking up space in our showers and ultimately the landfill.) Thank you for creating products that we can trust on not just our children but ourselves as well!" Sincerely, Amanda M. G.
"WOW! I love the Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash. What a pleasant surprise the scent was--really refreshing and nice smelling. Not gonna lie-sometimes green products don't smell very nice-this one is yummy smelling! A great product with none of the yucky stuff in it;)" thenorwexchick
"My baby Bonnie LOVES this wash, and I love that it rinses so easily! Our whole family loves how Baby smells after her bath - sweet but not overpoweringly so. Thanks for this fantastic product!" Ann
"I love this product. It smells great and seems to last forever! Thank you for such a wonderful product!" Liam's Mama
"This is the only product I will use on my daughter! And the smell is so soft and delicious!!" lexiboo
"I ran out of my facial cleanser, and I bought the baby shampoo/body cleanser [Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash] the other day for my baby. I have used it on him twice, and I love the pump, the foam, the easy rinsability, and the smell, so I used it on my face tonight. It took off makeup better than my regular cleanser, and it left my face soft! I plan to keep using it, double-duty! Makes it a lot easier to have one thing for both of us." Stacy Wiegman
"When my son was born he had the WORST eczema. I tried everything. Then I got Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash and Angel Baby Lotion. In TWO BATHS it cleared up completely. The pediatrician now recommends it to all the angel babies in her practice. And we use both products still (he's 18 months old). Thanks!" Kristi P. Fairfield, CT
"I had another Angel Baby this year and have used nothing but your products on her delicate skin. It may be just me, but she always seems to smile even wider when I use the Angel Baby Shampoo and Body Wash and finish off with the Angel Baby Lotion and Angel Baby Oil after her bath. Thank you, thank you, thank you for selling natural, chemical-free products that I can feel good about putting on my Angel Babies!"
Cathy from Westmont
"EMAB got me through this pregnancy! I had heartburn like you WOULDN'T BELIEVE...the Earth Mama Heartburn Tea REALLY DID help! Had a c-section and have been using the C-Mama Healing Salve™. I am unable to breastfeed due to medical reasons, so that No More Milk Tea came in very handy as I tried to "de-gorge" my poor breasts, who have now gone back to their droopy selves! And of course...the Angel Baby Bottom Balm. I change her and she is ALL RED, put on the Angel Baby Bottom Balm and the next change...she is white again! I'm so glad I can actually use the products. Of course Amaya, my oldest, loves her Angel Baby Shampoo and Body Wash and now I have real baby to use it on. I just wanted to let you know that you create some really sweet products! xoxox," Julie K. Portland OR
"We love your Earth Mama and Angel Baby products! I used most of your Postpartum Recovery products. For more than a year we have regularly used the Angel Baby Lotion, Angel Baby Shampoo and Body Wash, Angel Baby Bottom Balm, and Angel Baby Diaper Rash Soap on our 16 mo. old daughter. We also use the Angel Baby Bath Blossoms on occasion. We love the new 1 Liter refill size in the Angel Baby Shampoo and Body Wash and wish the lotion also came in a larger bottle. Seems like we go through a ton of it! Thanks for making gentle, safe, and wonderfully-smelling products! Jennifer S. Austin, TX
"Oh my yumminess! I love the products I have ordered over the last year from Earth Mama Angel Baby!! I am constantly searching for organic options for myself and my lovely babies. I have used the Earth Mama Body Butter, Angel Baby Lotion and Angel Baby Shampoo and Body Wash exclusively for a year now. My husband LOVES the smell of our skin, and since we all smell gently of tangerines and line dried linens, who can blame him! Your products are good for the skin, the environment and greatly put my mind at ease as to what I am slathering all over my kids, and myself. Your washes and lotions are heavenly, thank you!" Andrea
"My son Tristan and I absolutely adore your products — we use the Angel Baby Lotion, Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash and Natural Nipple Butter daily (I put this on his cradle cap and chapped cheeks, too)! Thanks for making such amazing, worry-free products for mama and baby :)" Marianne and Tristan

"The first time I met Elaine was when we were both playing Carnegie Hall. I ran out of hairspray and went next door to her dressing room to see if I could borrow some. She gave me some and told me I wasn't allowed to spray it near her. I went outside in the hall and sprayed the crap out of my hair. From that moment on we were friends. I idolize her and I hope to have a career with as much longevity as hers. Absolutely great!"

---- — LONDONDERRY — With the state backing out of retirement fund obligations, the Town Council asked Sen. Sharon Carson, R-Londonderry, to explain any options and paths the town may take.
Since the state has not been contributing to retirement funds as once promised, taxpayers must pick up the cost.
"This is clearly a broken system," Council Chairman John Farrell said. "The legislative side seems to be the obstacle at this point."
This problem is not recent, nor is it because of any recent legislative action. The state retirement system has been flawed since the late 1980s and early 1990s, officials said.
At that time, the economy was more stable and better benefits were promised to government employees. Now that people are earning less and the economy is in a slump, the state cannot afford to pay for expensive benefits, Carson said.
In last year's budget, 12 percent of a police officer's salary was going toward retirement. This year, nearly 25 percent is going toward retirement funds, and next year it is expected to be more than 30 percent. More than 27 percent of a firefighter's salary is contributed toward retirement funding this year. Retirement funds take up about 2 1/2 percent of the town budget, Councilor Tom Freda said.
"How do you expect us to keep paying an additional 50 percent into retirement plans each year?" Freda asked Carlson. "The payout keeps getting pushed to us."
Because of the deep-rooted problems in the state's retirement system, there is no overnight solution, said Martin Karlon of the New Hampshire Retirement Fund.
The state could not do a defined contribution to the retirement fund as other states have done, because the amount the state owes to the fund is already too high, Karlon said.
Another factor is the age of retirement. Residents are working later into their lives, contributing more into their retirement fund, Carlson said.
"It's almost malpractice to hire town employees rather than the private sector at this point," Freda said.
There have been about 60 recent legislative changes to the New Hampshire Retirement Fund to prevent anything like this happening in the future. In addition, new employees hired by the town will not have the same medical benefits as current ones, saving the town money, Carlson said.

Sick and tired of ice fishing shelter lights?
We sure are, or more accurately, were… Everytime you turn around another set of so-called "new and improved" or "revolutionary" shelter lights lands on the store shelves. We say hogwash. Most don't live up to half the hype. But in Frabill's world, you can't poke at the problems without offering solutions. So we did, and our shelter illumination solutions travel by the names Super Bright Shelter Light and Super Bright Shelter Light Bar.
It's best to identify the problems to illustrate our solutions – those solutions materializing as features on the final product.
Problem: Fish houses are warm, but inherently dark, even by day. Tough to gather enough light to perform basic tasks like tying on a lure or monitoring a bobber.
Solution: Frabill® brings the light, and lots of it. The single lens of the Shelter Light kicks out a scorching 70 lumens. Science aside, in a real and typical fish house setting, that's like a miniature sun pointing at the objects of your attention. On the Light Bar, four individual 18 lumen lenses join forces to generate 72 lumensof ambient light, equally distributed light that illuminates the entire shelter.
Problem: Light needs to hit what want, when you want. Most shelter lights are fixed, their dull glow pointing in a single direction. You end up having to inconveniently move the action to the light rather than the light coming to the action.
Solution: Frabill's Shelter Light and Shelter Light Bar are fully directional. The single beacon of the Shelter Light twists and turns to cast light wherever it's needed. Want to illuminate the minnow bucket? Push the lens and it pivots on command. On the Shelter Light Bar, each of the four lenses pivots, giving you more lighting control than a stage at a Broadway musical.
Problem: The current slate of shelter lights mount poorly and must be removed when you collapse the shelter, or suffer the consequences – a pile of shattered plastic on the fish house floor.
Solution: How about a good snug fit and intelligently engineered shape and size that easily opens and closes with your portable shelter, never putting the lights in harm's way. Both Frabill's Shelter Light and Shelter Light Bar feature beveled backs that snug-up to any pole system, and are held firmly in place withan adjustable Velcro fastener.
