Work-hard, play-hard thinking predominates in our culture. We've been sold...
In most cases, I'm a terribly traditional cook. If there is a longer, slower, more manual way to do something, almost invariably I will prefer it. But even I push tradition aside when I find an alternative that is not only easier but also tastes as good or better.
Which brings me to polenta, a dish that is about as traditional as Italian cooking gets.
As someone who was always exploring ways to avoid the constant stirring that polenta seems to require, I was skeptical. But there's no arguing with the results: Mix water, cornmeal and salt, and bake without disturbing, stir and then bake a little longer. The result? Perfect, deeply flavoured polenta. Since then, what had been an occasional luxury has become a weekend staple.
Can there be anything better on a chilly night than a big bowl of polenta topped with a ragu with sausage and short ribs? Well, yes, actually. Lately I've been trying a new twist on polenta. Instead of making it in a pot, I use a gratin dish and then, once the polenta is cooked, I strew over some toppings and return it to the oven for one last bake.
The beauty of it is that you can make so many great toppings in the hour or so the polenta is baking.
One of my favourites, inspired by an idea from Yotam Ottolenghi's Plenty (Chronicle Books, $39.95), is to sauté mushrooms and arrange them over the top along with shredded Fontina cheese. Or you can make a quick tomato sauce, studded with browned cubes of pancetta. I've made this the simple way — with just onions and garlic — but I find that adding diced carrots and celery gives a sweeter, more rounded flavour to the sauce.
One word of advice: Even stores that should know better will sometimes sell finely ground cornmeal as "polenta." It's not. The flavour is more bitter and the texture is stiffer. You want coarsely ground meal.
Considering how easy it is to make, and how delicious, it's an investment worth making.
Polenta Gratin With Mushrooms and Fontina
Makes 6 servings
1 cup (250 mL) polenta
4 cups (1 L) water
6 oz (165 g) crimini mushrooms, sliced
4 oz (115 g) oyster mushrooms, bottoms removed
2 fresh shiitake mushrooms, stems removed and sliced
1 clove garlic, minced
1 sprig fresh rosemary
¼ lb (115 g) Fontina cheese, sliced
Heat the oven to 350 F (180 C). Put the polenta in a 2-quart (2-L) gratin dish, and stir in the water and 1 tsp (5 mL) salt. Bake for 45 minutes. Stir in 2 tbsp (30 mL) butter and return the polenta to the oven for 15 more minutes.
Heat 2 tbsp (30 mL) butter in a nonstick skillet over medium-high heat. Add the mushrooms and sprinkle with ¼ tsp (1 mL) salt, or to taste. Cook, stirring frequently, until the mushrooms give up their moisture, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and the rosemary and continue cooking until the mushrooms are dry, 3 to 4 more minutes.
When the polenta is done, taste and add more salt if necessary. Tear the soft Fontina slices into shreds and distribute them over the top of the polenta. Scatter the cooked mushrooms over the top and return the pan to the oven until the cheese has melted and begins to brown, about 5 minutes.

Polenta Gratin With Pancetta and Tomato Sauce
2 tbsp (30 mL) butter
2 tbsp (30 mL) olive oil
¼ lb (115 g) pancetta, cut in ½-inch (1.2-cm) cubes
½ cup (125 mL) diced onion
¼ cup (60 mL) diced carrot
2 tbsp (30 mL) diced celery
3 cloves garlic, minced
2 cups (500 mL) chopped tomatoes, with their juice
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 oz (30 g) grated Parmesan
Heat the oven to 350 F (180 C). Put the polenta in a 2-quart (2-L) gratin dish and stir in the water and 1 tsp (5 mL) salt. Bake for 45 minutes. Stir in 2 tbsp (30 mL) butter and return the polenta to the oven for 15 more minutes. Taste and add more salt if necessary.
While the polenta is baking, heat the olive oil over medium heat in a large skillet. Add the diced pancetta and cook until it is browned, about 10 minutes.
Pour off all but about 1 tbsp (15 mL) of the fat and add the onion, carrot and celery, and cook until the vegetables have softened, about 7 minutes. Add the garlic and cook until fragrant, about 3 minutes. Add the chopped tomatoes, season with ½ tsp (2 mL) salt and freshly ground black pepper, and cook until the liquid has all but evaporated and the tomatoes have thickened into a sauce, about 15 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, and remove from the heat.
When the polenta is fully cooked, spoon the pancetta and tomato sauce over the top. Scatter the Parmesan over the top and return to the oven to bake until the cheese is melted, about 10 minutes.

Sumgayit (Azerbaijani: Sumqayıt; also, Sumgait, Sumqayit, and Sumqayyt) is one of the largest cities in Azerbaijan, located near the Caspian Sea, about 31 kilometres (19 miles) away from the capital, Baku. The city has a population of 308,700 (2009 census), making it the third-largest city in Azerbaijan after the capital Baku and Ganja. The city has a territory of 83 square kilometres (32 sq mi). It was founded on November 22, 1949.[1] Two settlements are within the city administration: Jorat and Haji Zeynalabdin, a settlement named after oil businessman and philanthropist Haji Zeynalabdin Taghiyev. It is home to Sumqayit State University.

According to the local folklore the city is named after the Sumqayit River. In retrospect the legend tells the tale of a hero by the name of "Sum", who is chosen by the community to fight a monster that was blocking the Sumqayit River. Sum eventually manages to kill the monster, but when the river is released he is swept by the waters and never seen again. After that, his beloved, Jeyran, inconsolable by Sum's disappearance, would go to the river and cry "Sum qayıt!" (which means "Sum, come back!" in Azerbaijani). So the river became known as Sumgayit, upon the city was named after.
Medieval era[edit]
According to historians, Medean tribes lived in the area. During the construction boom, when the foundation of the executive power building was being excavated, remains of an ancient caravanserai along with personal items and kitchenware was found at the site.
The first reports of settlements at the present site of Sumgayit were in 1580, when English traveller H. Barrow mentioned Sumgayit in his writings and in 1858, when Alexander Dumas wrote about the area in his memoirs Trip to Caucasus, although nothing substantial was created on the site until the Soviet Union gained control over the area in the 1920s.[2]
Modern era[edit]
Following the politics of glasnost, initiated by Mikhail Gorbachev, civil unrest and ethnic strife grew in various regions of the Soviet Union, including Nagorno-Karabakh,[3] an autonomous region of the Azerbaijan SSR.
On 22—23 February 1988 violence broke out in the town on Askeran, resulting in the death of two Azerbaijanis.[4] The news of the Askeran clash along with ongoing deportation of Azerbaijanis from Armenia sparked the Sumgait pogrom against Armenian residents of the city of Sumgait in Azerbaijan on 27 February.[5] The violence was led, to some degree, by Azerbaijani refugees from Armenia, perhaps as many as 2000[6] of them made even more desperate by being forced to take shelter in the appalling conditions of Sumgait's shantytown.[7] The pogrom resulted in the deaths of 26 Armenians and 6 Azerbaijanis. As a result, the entire Armenian population fled from Sumqayit. The violence during the Askeran clash and the Sumgait Pogrom marked the starting points of Armenian-Azerbaijani conflict, which triggered the Nagorno-Karabakh War.[8]
Later the city became home to a number of Azerbaijani refugees internally displaced persons. Most of them where from Qubadli and Zengilan regions.
The first studies in architecture and urban planning of the city of Sumgait were carried out by Azerbaijani and Soviet scientist, academician of the International Academy of Architecture of the Eastern Countries, honored architect of Azerbaijan SSR Dr. Kamal Mamedbekov (PhD in theory and history of architecture and restoration of architectural monuments). The result of years of research were numerous scientific publications and a book about architectural and planning development of the city of Sumgait.[9] Mamedbekov donated a large number of graphics and illustrations made by him to the archives of The City Museum.
Cultural establishments[edit]
During the Soviet rule of Azerbaijan, Sumgayit was believed to have the longest and cleanest sea side park in the republic. The Culture and Leisure Park was laid on 23 ha of Sumgayit coastline in 1967. On August 17, 1978 the park was given the name of a distinguished Azerbaijani poet Imadaddin Nasimi. The same year, the city administration raised the Peace Dove monument in the middle of the park assigning the city a symbol of peace. The flora of the park includes 39 types of trees. Events of 1990's such as the Black January tragedy and Nagorno-Karabakh War, led to establishment of Stars (Ulduzlar) and 20 January Monument monuments in the park. In the eastern section of the park, Shehidler Khiyabani similar to Martyrs' Lane in Baku was established as burial ground for thousands of soldiers from Sumgayit who died during the war. According to the Decree No. 132 of the Cabinet of Ministers of Azerbaijan dated August 2, 2001 the park was given the status of national historical importance. Its current size is 80 ha. In addition to Nasimi Culture and Leisure Park, the city administration built Ludwigshafen Park in 1997 in celebration of the 20th anniversary of twin-city relations between Ludwigshafen and Sumgayit. In 1999, Heydar Aliyev Park and Luna Park were built in the rapidly growing city.[10]
The city has extensive communication with Baku through bus services. The building of new subway line from Baku is currently planned.

Contemporary period[edit]
Sumgayit Contemporary Period Timeline[12]
Year Event
In 1935, the Soviet government decided to develop heavy industry in the Absheron Peninsula, and the future location of Sumgayit was chosen based on its proximity to Baku and its key position on existing railroad lines.
Between 1938–1941, a thermal power station was constructed to power Baku's growing petroleum industry. This was soon followed by more heavy industries. Due to World War II the construction of the area stopped and resumed in 1944, when metallurgical and chemical plants were constructed and put into operation. The first production of Sumgayit Chemical Plant led to a rapid growth and construction boom, creating a new job market, and a need for a resident population. In 1949, Sumgayit gained official city status according to resolution of the Supreme Soviet of Azerbaijan SSR. In 1952, a tube-rolling plant delivered its first produce thus developing black metallurgy production in Azerbaijan. The same year, another new Synthetic Rubber Production Plant started its operations producing ethylene obtained from oil. Operations at Sumgayit Steel Processing Plant and Sumgayit Aluminium Plant were commenced in 1953 and 1955, respectively. In 1957–1955, a number of scientific research facilities and cultural centers were built, leading to further development of the city infrastructure. In 1960, authorities started building the Petroleum Chemical Factory, the largest in Europe at the time. From 1961 through 1968, a brick-producing factory, a polymer construction materials industrial complex, a phosphor production plant were built. In 1970-1980s, light industry and mechanical engineering facilities were added to the industrial base of the city. By the end of the 1980s, Sumgayit was already the center of the chemical industry of the USSR.[2]
Statistics shows that Sumgayit education have been higher from the past. According to statistics, the number of adopting to universities is higher in Sumgayit. There are lyceums and ordinary schools in Sumgayit. In the schools ranking list of Sumgayit, Sumgait Private Turkish High School is the first.[citation needed] Also, TTEL and TET Gymnasium are top schools of Sumgayit. One of the top schools is Idrak school lyceum. It is a newly opened school, founded in 2008. There is a university in Sumqait. Sumqayit State University (Azerbaijani: Sumqayıt Dövlət Universiteti), is a public university located in Sumqayit, Azerbaijan. The university has seven departments and approximately 4000 students.
Sumgayit was credited as the main regional driving force behind rock bands of the 1990s including Yuxu, Miraj, Mozalan, and Sirr.[13][14]
The city has one professional football team competing in the top-flight of Azerbaijani football – Sumgayit PFC, currently playing in the Azerbaijan Premier League.
As a result of the Soviet planning of the industrial boom era, the city became heavily polluted. Soon after Azerbaijan's independence, the industrial sectors went into decline. The Absheron Peninsula (which consists of Sumqayit, Baku and the Absheron Rayon) was considered by scientists to be the most ecologically devastated part of Azerbaijan. The city was known for its children's cemetery, known as the "Baby Cemetery" which contains many graves of infants born with deformities and mental retardation that were further complicated by the lack of adequate medical care for the poor.[15] Sumgayit was named as most polluted place on earth by the US based environmental group the Blacksmith Institute in 2006 and placed on their list of The World's Most Polluted Places by Time magazine in 2007.[16] The report noted the former Soviet industrial base was polluting the local environment with industrial chemicals like chlorine and heavy metals. The report also mentioned cancer rates in Sumgayit were as much as 51% higher than the national average and that genetic mutations and birth defects were commonplace.[17] The city administration prepared an environmental protection plan for 2003–2010 which has been steadily decreasing the levels of pollution to minimal. The program oversees 118 activities aimed at minimizing pollution at all possible levels of economic production. The program was prepared with participation of all industrial enterprises in the city and its enforcement is being regulated by the executive power of the city. For instance, the amount of waste water from industrial production went down from 600 thousand m3 during 1990's to 76.3 thousand m3 in 2005. Solid waste went down from 300 thousand to 3,868 tons a year. The World Bank has issued a loan to the Azerbaijani government for construction of a burial range for mercury waste.[18]

Great room with very hip décor. It was within walking distance of the Hollywood Bowl.
I did not like the fact that we woke up to the sound of buzz saws and hammering. My husband and I were celebrating our 34th wedding anniversary. We went to the Hollywood Bowl and I splurged and got what was for us a very expensive one night stay.I was also bummed out that the outside bar, the Library is only open Thurs. - Sat. I guess I missed reading about their hours were limited to certain days. I think that's a big inconvenience to customers!! I accidently left my phone charger and didn't get any help from them about mailing it back.They apparently don't care.

Poor 1.0
The rooms are newly remodeled. All new furniture, fixtures, flooring, etc. The bed was super comfortable and the entire room was spotless. It's conveniently located in an area near a lot of night life.
The hotel was extremely noisy at all hours of the day and night, and since there is only bamboo flooring and no carpet, there is no soundproofing. You hear absolutely everything that happens in the hallway and in every room around you. EVERYTHING.Despite the nice, clean room, my stay could not have been more unpleasant. The clerk who checked me in upon arrival was incredibly rude and acted as if I was inconveniencing him by simply being there. He explained the parking pass charge (It's $12 to park and there isn't enough space for all guests by a long shot. They don't tell you that in the hotel description) and the strict non-smoking policy for my room as though I'd already violated them. I dropped my things off in my room and called for a cab to tak...

R: the Leading Statistics Language and Key Weapon in Advanced Analytics Today
David Smith (Revolution Analytics):
Of course, this isn't the first time that R has been embedded into a data warehousing appliance. IBM Netezza's iClass device integrates with Revolution R, and AsterData, the Teradata Data Warehouse Appliance, and Greenplum all provide connections to R as well. Here at Revolution Analytics, we think that such enterprise-level integrations with R serve to grow the R ecosystem and serve as validation of R as a key platform for advanced analytics. As CEO Norman Nie said to GigaOm this weekend,
"Oracle's announcement to embed R demonstrates validation for the leading statistics language and offers further evidence that R is a key weapon in advanced analytics today"
And let's not leave aside the strategic partnership between Revolution Analytics and Cloudera to include RevoConnectR in the CDH.

How the WSJ magazine fails its readers
Lucas Conley's piece on Ugg for the WSJ's magazine is a perfect example of why the WSJ shouldn't have a glossy, fashion-friendly magazine.
Conley does a reasonably good job of covering the way in which Deckers Outdoor Corporation, the American company which owns the Ugg trademark, has become a highly-aggressive trademark troll, and in the process has helped to decimate a small but longstanding Australian industry. But having found that story, he buries it, and ends up capitulating to all the evil impulses of the fashion industry.
If you read closely, you'll find Conley explaining how, despite the fact that "uggs have been a cottage industry in Australia for decades", Deckers became extremely aggressive when it comes to those small local companies, slapping them with cease-and-desist orders and in general trying as hard as they could to use trademark law to shut down anybody who might be considered a competitor. It won in the US against Koolaburra, a US firm importing sheepskin boots and selling them under the name "ug", although it lost in Australia against Uggs-n-Rugs, a 32-year-old sheepskin outfitter. But the big picture is clear:
While Deckers may have lost the Australian trademark battle, the company is winning the war. Today, Deckers owns "ugg" trademarks in over 100 countries, protecting them with high-tech anti-counterfeiting tools and a sophisticated network of lawyers, customs officials, corporate coalitions and private investigators. "Counterfeiting is one of the plagues of a popular brand," says Leah Evert-Burks, Deckers' inhouse counsel and director of brand protection. "There are some anti-counterfeiting measures I can't even talk about. It's amazing what you go through when you get involved in this world."
By Deckers' count, last year the company terminated over 20,000 eBay auctions, shut down over 2,500 websites, and accounted for some 60,000 pairs of counterfeit boots seized by customs officials. While Evert-Burks emphasizes that the vast majority were blatant criminal operations out of China (which often glue inexpensive cow suede to the exterior of the boot in place of twinfaced sheepskin), Stewart says he still receives complaints from Australian vendors who have been lumped in with counterfeiters.
Like a global mute button, the threat of legal action has stifled the Australian ugg industry's efforts to market internationally. The McDougalls claim to have lost 90 percent of their international business since 2004. Their daughter gave up entirely after Deckers shut down her eBay business. "Almost anyone who sells anything with the word ug, ugg or ugh is infringing on their trademark," Bronwyn says. "There's no argument."
At the same time, however, Conley, or his editors, go to great lengths to be as friendly as possible to Deckers. For instance, he doesn't actually come out and say that uggs have been a cottage industry in Australia for decades: he feels the need to call them "generic uggs" instead, as though they were somehow copying the Deckers Uggs long before the Deckers Uggs even existed.
What's more, throughout the article, the Deckers product is referred to in all caps, as an UGG. No self-respecting newspaper style guide would ever allow such a thing, but glossy fashion magazines never had any self-respect in the first place, and it's clear which side of the line the WSJ magazine falls.
Worst of all, however, is the sidebar, which compares Deckers' boot to the competition:
The UGG Australia Classic boots come in short (midcalf) and tall versions. Any variation on these heights are not genuine UGG boots.
A genuine UGG has the registered trademark symbol ® next to its logo on the label…
Some fakes use synthetic "fleece".
My emphasis, but you get the point, which almost tips into self-parody here:
Deckers' UGG boots are made in China, so if the label says "Made in Australia," it is not an UGG.
The point is that there are lots of Ugg boots. The most popular Uggs are made by a US company in China. That company owns a bunch of trademarks, which somehow means that the WSJ can talk with a straight face about "genuine UGG boots", while saying that all other Ugg boots are fakes. But the fact is that an Australian Ugg boot, made by a company which long predates the Ugg trademark, is by any sensible definition just as genuine, if not more so, than the boots that the WSJ is falling over itself teaching us to recognize and distinguish.
Yet somehow Conley feels impelled to inform us that if a boot is made in Australia — the home of the Ugg boot — then "it is not an UGG".
To give an example of how ridiculous this all is, imagine that an American company — maybe even Deckers, you never know — decided to buy up a small knife-making company in Thiers, France. And say that after doing so, it started to register the name Laguiole, and the famous bee symbol, in jurisdictions around the world.
Deckers then decides to outsource production of Laguiole knives to China, while at the same time slapping anybody else trying to sell Laguiole knives with a cease-and-desist order. It starts impounding any Laguiole knives which are imported into the US, and shuts down any market in Laguiole knives on eBay or in other marketplaces.
Laguiole knives have been made by thousands of French craftsmen for over 150 years, but suddenly there would only be one "genuine Laguiole® knife", and all the others would, overnight, be branded "counterfeits" or "fakes"; their sales would collapse, while Deckers would essentially hijack all of the brand value which has been painstakingly built up over the generations. And heaven forfend that anybody else try to make Laguiole knives in China — those would get seized at customs, and branded as "blatant criminal operations" by Deckers' in-house counsel.
If that were to happen, one would hope that the WSJ would try to expose the evil trademark troll, instead of running gushing articles about how the company was serving up "stunning results in the midst of a global recession". It certainly wouldn't — one hopes — tell its readers how to make sure they were buying a genuine Laguiole® knife rather than an expensive French "fake".
Conley mentions in passing, in his piece, that after Deckers lost the lawsuit in Australia, it failed to pay certain legal costs of the winning side, as required under Australian law. If he ever asked Deckers counsel about this, there's no sign of it in the story. Instead, he concludes with a paean to a highly-successful company:
Although UGG is not the haute couture brand it was years ago—the darling of fashion spreads, the envy of A-list gift bags—its sales are bigger than ever. That "alpha consumer," the mother picking up her kids at private school in the Range Rover? While she may no longer roll up in a pair of the latest UGG boots, her counterparts at the neighboring public school are pulling away in Explorers full of UGG-boot-wearing adolescents. UGG Australia has become a mainstream brand, always in stock—found in several stores in any mall—and begrudgingly approved of even by its critics for its comfort and utility. It's an appropriate irony; the humble boot of the masses has come full circle—albeit with a trademark this time. And that's fashion, according to Simonton. "Things come back," he says, "but they're never quite the same."
Well, "irony" is one way of putting it: the humble boot of the masses is still a humble boot of the masses, but now it's wrapped up in aggressively-enforced trademarks, ensuring that all the profits from that humble boot accrue to a single multi-billion-dollar multinational corporation. But yes, "that's fashion". And you can be sure that a glossy fashion-focused magazine is never going to cut against the grain of the fashion industry when it comes to issues surrounding trademark law and intellectual property.
Which is why it's crazy that the WSJ tries to cover the fashion industry from within the covers of a glossy fashion-focused magazine. The conflicts are far too big — and, as this story shows, the winner in those conflicts is always going to be the big fashion multinational, rather than the magazine's readers.
Update: It turns out there already is a Laguiole trademark troll! Thanks to vb2b, in the comments, for the link.

Simple. In this country, we make nothing except this ethreal bullshit called "Intellectual Property." This fantasy must be protected at all costs. That's why you got fake American uggs shutting down the original Australian uggs by labeling them fake (truly a Kafkaesque situation), why you have Microsoft colluding with the Russian OMON to harrass human rights activists over phantom "pirated software" etc. Disagraceful.
The problem at the core of this is that generic terms (as 'ugg', apparently, was in pre-1970 Australia) cannot and should not be trademarked. That's Intellectual Property 101. There could be a potential article in there somewhere that deals with the failure of trademarking system that allowed the term to be trademarked in Australia in the first place.
On the other hand, the term most likely was not a generic outside Australia (99.999% of non-Australians probably never heard of the word before Deckers started the move to commercialize them), and, in these countries, there's no problem at all – when companies like McDougall try to capitalize on worldwide success of Deckers by pushing their products in the US, the trademark law justly protects Deckers.
Maybe worth noting that most uggs sold here in Australia make a point of carrying the "Australia Made" logo in order to charge the AU$80 cost. You can find the cheap Chinese ones too, but you don't pay as much.
Maybe you should call this a "Genuine blog, written in the USA, manufactured by imported parts".
I would argue that this is a major failing with intellectual property law. There is simply no reason that a single company should be able to trademark/copyright ideas, designs and words that are already in general usage, as Ugg boots clearly are in Australia. Maybe McDonald's missed a trick by not trademarking the "burger" and its specific collection of ingredients, then it could have been a monopolist, or maybe I should look for a product recently launched in the US and apply for the European copyrights?
That probably wouldn't work as the Europeans would recognize such as total BS. Greed has killed America, and it ain't stopping anytime soon.
As it happens, Laguiole has already been deckered:
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnew s/europe/france/7806861/French-town-in-r ow-with-Laguiole-knife-maker.html
Hmmm….small concerns in Australia being eaten up by big corporates…that rings a bell.
Talking of the Journal's owner Rupert Murdoch, his troubles are mounting: new data suggests the Times paywalls are a calamity, Newscorp is hugely overdependent on the English soccer income, MySpace is collapsing, the Andy Coulson affair is making the WSJ look like liars…and the BSkyB grab at cash-flow sorry, takeover process is getting bogged down.
http://nbyslog.blogspot.com/2010/09/excl usive-online-times-titles.html
I just discovered this article and it contains a lot of inaccuracies. It also omits several important facts. Before the mid-1990s, when Deckers bought the rights to the "UGG" trademark (and the company Ugg Holdings) from an Australian, and tiny companies with similar names in places like Cornwall and New Zealand, a typical Australian ugg boot "factory" consisted of a shack at the edge of a sheep farm, with two or three people working there — all members of the sheep herdsman's family. They made, at most a few hundred thousand dollars a year. Ugg boots were considered a lower-class, trashy type of footwear, worn by young suburban thugs called "bogans" who didn't have any money. The American equivalent term would be "white trash." In the UK you call them "chavs."
Then Deckers embarked on a very clever and expensive marketing campaign, giving away thousands of pairs of boots not only to celebrities such as Pamela Anderson, Sarah Jessica Parker, Cameron Diaz and Oprah Winfrey, but also the entourage and fans for each celebrity. They carefully sought product placements in trendy films and TV series. The strategy paid off and Oprah named UGG brand boots one of her "Favorite Things" two consecutive years.
The UGG brand boot is now a high fashion item like Jimmy Choo shoes and Ralph Lauren sportswear. Instead of a few hundred thousand dollars in sales to a crowd of suburban Australian chavs, Deckers has just reached US$1 billion in annual sales worldwide. They have every right to protect the lucrative worldwide market that they have created, because they're the ones who created it. The little Australian shacks on the edges of the sheep farms have every right to sell their wares in Australia but Deckers planted the seeds in the rest of the world, and now they're reaping a bountiful harvest.

CROWN POINT | The quarter of a million dollars in new revenues set to hit Lake County solid waste district coffers in 2014 will come from the thawing of a long-frozen tax levy, the county treasurer said Tuesday.
The Lake County Solid Waste Management District had reported last week that $249,000 in new revenues would be coming to the district courtesy of the newly adopted local option income tax.
But after looking further into the issue early this week, Lake County Treasurer John Petalas said the money actually would be coming from a thaw in the district's frozen property tax levy. The property tax levy of all local government units had been frozen since 2007 by the Indiana Legislature in an attempt to force tax reform and the adoption of a local option income tax.
Earlier this year, the Legislature thawed the levy freeze, and the county finally adopted a 1.5 percent local option income tax.
Petalas said the waste district became confused that the $249,000 in new revenue was coming from a portion of the income tax. A line item in the district's proposed 2014 budget listed the revenue as "CEDIT," incorrectly indicating it was from new income tax revenues rather than from the thawing of the previously frozen levy.
Petalas also said the money is now estimated to be $253,343.
Controversy erupted last week when a proposal to use the money for waste district employee pensions was made public by district board Chairman David Hamm.
The money has since been earmarked for other "contingency" purposes in the proposed 2014 budget.

Gettin' my healthy on
No more junk food! I'm going to actually change up my diet & get back to exercising from tomorrow! I'm not following any fad diets - I'm going to stick to eating my veggies, meat, & dairy products. I'm not going to eat junk food whatsoever. I realized I'm an emotional eater & I absolutely have to stop eating just because I'm bored or I'm watching a movie. I have the worst habits when it comes to eating food! When I go to the movies I will always get a soda & cheese popcorn & it's horrible because of the amount of calories I'm consuming!
I'm also going to follow this easy & effective workout, it's called The 100 Workout. This little workout is so convenient as it can be done about anywhere - especially when you're feeling too lazy or just can't go the gym!
It includes:
• 100 jumping jacks
• 90 crunches
• 80 squats
• 70 leg lifts
• 60 jumping jacks
• 50 crunches
• 40 squats
• 30 leg lifts
• 20 jumping jacks
• 10 minute jog/run
I'm going to do this everyday, i.e., Monday-Sunday. I made a few points to follow for this everyday routine if any of you guys want to join in:
1. If you're going to start this routine, I advise you to be ready a day before. Try to sleep early; 10:30pm/11pm would be great!
2. Wake up at either 7am/8am. You're going to be getting 8-9 hours of sleep & I think it's enough!
3. Eat something before you start working out! (If you don't know what to eat, start with cereal & a fruit like a banana, because it's an energy booster. If you don't eat anything, you won't have enough energy to workout!) This is why it's advisable to wake up at 7am/8am. You need an hour or two before your workout.
4. Start with The 100 Workout!
5. After the workout, during the rest of the day, make sure that you do not eat any junk food at all! Stick with healthy foods like veggies & fruits, lean meats & low-fat milk/yogurt! For snacks, eat a granola bar or a fruit & make sure to drink looots of water! Water is your new best friend - especially hot water. It really fills your tummy up.
6. Repeat tomorrow!healthy health exercise the 100 workout

Heavy backpacks hurt- how to lighten the loadWednesday, September 17th, 2014
Pain and strain. Did you know heavy backpacks can be the cause of posture and back problems? Many children with special needs have musculoskeletal issues. A very heavy backpack may add additional challenges to an already sensitive child.
Yesterday, on my way to work, I noticed a group of kids headed for the bus stop. I could not help but observe their gigantic backpacks, full to the brim, and noticeably heavy. One little girl was struggling to stay upright as she shifted the weight of her backpack from left to right, in an effort to hurry along and catch her bus.
The daily carrying of heavy packs can cause muscle strain and pain, and may lead to back, shoulder or neck injuries. The American Occupational Therapy Association (AOTA) has designated today as National School Backpack Awareness Day. They are holding events in different areas of the country. Even if you don't make it to a backpack event, it is well worth your time to read AOTA's tip sheet on Backpack Strategies for Parents and Students.
AOTA offers strategies on how to lighten the load, pack the backpack properly and wear it correctly. For instance, did you know that the pack should not weigh more than 10% of your child's weight? (If your child weighs 80 pounds, the loaded pack should not weigh more than 8 pounds.) Also, you can make hoisting a pack easier by packing the heaviest items close to your child's back. Using both shoulder straps is also key to minimizing injuries. Learn more helpful tips on their sheet.
So, help your child "pack it light and wear it right." You could well avoid injuries and pain with a few simple changes.
Note: This post is part of the weekly series Delays and disabilities – how to get help for your child. It was started in January 2013 and appears every Wednesday. Go to News Moms Need and click on "Help for your child" on the menu on the right side to view all of the blog posts to date.

text: ShareBenchmark PayPal IntegrationApr 01 2014, 09:00 AM by Dorothy Le If you are reading Benchmark's business blog, you are most likely a small business owner. If you are a business owner (especially e-commerce), there is a 99% chance that your company incorporates Paypal accounts. Paypal has definitely changed the way we pay for products and services online. Previously, it was a bit of a hassle trying to type in your entire credit card number for one purchase, then going it over once, and then twice to make sure there are no missing numbers, only to press send and get those annoying red asterisks because you missed a digit. That's why all online customers have rejoiced over the freedom that Paypal brings. No more shuffling to see which credit card to use in case one gets decline, no more worries of a hacker downloading your account data from the online store, and a plethora of other dangers. As for an online retailer, the amount of mix-ups and confusion trying to keep track of all the credit cards numbers and accounts can enough to make anyone pass out in distress. If you are one of the wise ones that have chosen Benchmark Email to help you with your company, then we have a treat for you. One of our several integrations includes the Paypal plugin, which allows you to add your Paypal customers to one of your existing Benchmark contact list. What's the point, you ask? Well if somehow your business makes a terrible mistake and swiped out all your customer's entire Paypal accounts and their money was gone, you simply have to look up one contact list to find the specific customers to reimburse out of your own pocket. Juuuust kidding. Just like how Benchmark allows you to segment your contact list into specific groups (New subscribers, Long-time customers, Potential customers, Calls and complains too much, Big Spenders), it is suggested to segment your Paypal users into a list too. Just like how you can create specific content and campaigns for each segmented group, you can also the same for your Paypal customers: special discount for all Paypal users, articles on online safety tips, latest Paypal updates, etc. It all goes back to utilizing email marketing for all aspects of your business. This plugin is more than just a technical integration between two online softwares. It is another opportunity for you as a business owner to identify the different groups in your customer base and create the best campaigns that will fit each group well.

Condoms are 98 percent effective when used perfectly, but only 82 percent effective with typical use. Wearing a condom that is too small or too big (Come on, guys! We know you don't ALL need Magnums) can make a difference in how effective a condom is at preventing pregnancy. Wear a condom that's too tight and it could break. Wear one that's too big and it could slip off.
From Annie Shapiro's RH Reality Check article, "Here's a Secret: Size Really Does Matter," August 16, 2012.
Condoms that fit well work well, so choosing a kind you like and putting it on correctly is important for having safer sex. Pick up a few for a practice session (you may even be able to find them for free) or download CondomPro for iPhone if you want some virtual practice. Try different kinds until you or your partner find one that's just right.
Here's a Secret: Size Really Does Matter
This article by Annie Shapiro of the Reproductive Health Technologies Project (RHTP) is cross-posted from RH Reality Check.
As an avid sports fan, I spend many hours watching sporting events with my guy friends, and the conversation always seems to veer toward sex. I act annoyed that the boys just have to bring it up, asking me questions I would prefer not answer or consider. But, I must admit I actually enjoy these "sex talks." I love watching NBA star Kevin Durant make an unbelievable three-pointer while sharing stories and information with friends.
I remember one evening in particular in the lounge at my friend's apartment building. We discussed our high school sex-ed classes. Although our teachers demonstrated how to put on a condom, it was much more difficult on our first attempt. Practice makes perfect, right? Struggling to put a condom on, though, can be a real turn-off. (If only young men and women were taught some sexy tricks to practice safe, and hot, sex.)
We also talked about how to know what size condoms to buy. The boys said they use whatever is cheapest or what is guaranteed to feel the best. But in this instance, size is just as important as pleasure.
Condoms are 98 percent effective when used perfectly, but only 82 percent effective with typical use. Wearing a condom that is too small or too big (Come on, guys! We know you don't ALL need Magnums) can make a difference in how effective a condom is at preventing pregnancy. Wear a condom that's too tight and it could break. Wear one that's too big and it could slip off.
How can we expect young people to engage in safe and healthy sexual activities if we never inform them that both size - condom size that is - and correct use matter?
Fortunately there are a variety of innovative male contraceptive products either on the market or in clinical trial that will make putting on condoms easier and offer contraceptive alternatives.
South Africans developed the ready-to-wear Pronto condom. The condom is in an applicator and one simply has to break the packaging, stretch, and pull down. This design limits the time it takes to put on a condom and the potential for mishaps. This condom, or others like it, could really help close the gap between potential and real effectiveness; however, this condom is currently not for sale in any nation outside of South Africa.
There is also the prospect of a new male contraceptive gel. The University of California Los Angeles Biomedical Research Institute shared its study that combined Nestorone and Testosterone to lower sperm count in men. However, this option will not be available for a few more years due to the need for further testing.
A couple of other options appear promising in theory, but not all that attractive to potential male consumers. A testicular contraceptive injection is being tested in India and the use of ultrasound to kill off sperm-growing cells is also being studied. Let's be real - pap smears and speculums are not exactly comfortable so I guess I can understand if some guys are not that excited about zapping or stabbing their testicles.
This is just a glimpse of what may come in the near future, but we still need to continue to push for research, development, and testing of new technologies. The more options that are available to sexually-active young people, the more likely we are to find one that fits our personal sex lives and protects us adequately.
Until this happens, we have to stop short-shafting men (pun intended). We need to teach young men and women how to use a condom properly, including knowing which size to use.
Annie is currently a senior at George Washington University, pursuing a bachelor's degree with a concentration in International Affairs and History. She has held several internships at non-profit organizations, including at the Reproductive Health Technologies Project, the Rape, Abuse, & Incest National Network, the Equal Rights Center, and the Asia Foundation's Women's Empowerment Program. Annie also participates in a variety of student organizations on campus and is the Secretary for Delta Phi Epsilon Professional Foreign Service Sorority.
BeforePlay and Beyond
This isn't the first time we've posted about Beforeplay.org and it probably won't be the last. We're so psyched to be working with them and to see them getting some much-deserved media attention. Though their excellent, locally tailored campaign is all their own, you may have noticed traces of Bedsider on the website itself.
Martha Kempner noted in her RH Reality Check piece about the Colorado-based campaign that there "are now countless websites devoted to sharing information about contraception, STDs, and sexual health…each has a slightly different audience but I do question whether we could do even better if we just pooled our resources to make existing sites better rather than continue to put up new ones." It's nice to be able to say that in this case, Bedsider and the BeforePlay folks did just that. BeforePlay uses Bedsider's health center and emergency contraception (EC) finder databases and their team helped us to improve the information the databases offer on Colorado health centers and EC. BeforePlay also used some of our information and images (the method detail pages and "Real Stories" will look particularly familiar to Bedsider users) in their birth control section.
We've put a lot into our site with the goal of being a resource to individuals as well as health care providers and other partners, but we can't be all things to all audiences, so we love that the BeforePlay team took what they found useful from Bedsider and tailored it to Coloradans. We hope to work with other state and local partners in similar ways going forward. There are plenty of ways to use our resources already by embedding videos from our YouTube channel or using our free birth control finder on your own website. We also invite you to reach out via info[at]bedsider[dot]org if you know of a state or local initiative you think we should work with.
And now, another BeforePlay video we love for your viewing pleasure:
The High Costs of Birth Control: A Major Barrier to Access
Interesting piece on RH Reality Check about the role cost can play in birth control access. Not exactly a surprise, but it's good to be reminded that helping people find affordable options (ahem—like we do with our Free Birth Control Finder!) is worthwhile, as is (ahem the sequel) making sure birth control is covered by health insurance…

What's your favorite room in your home?
I live in an L.A. condo during the work week and in San Diego on weekends. At home, I love the sitting room just off my master bedroom. There's a big bay window, a couch, chair, fireplace — and it has the best view of the ocean from that room. It feels like you're sitting in a cloud. There's always an ocean breeze and you can hear the fountains in my backyard. It's cozy and wonderful.
What's on the nightstand next to your bed?
In San Diego, I have piles and piles of books next to my bed, including The Name Above the Title about filmmaker Frank Capra. In L.A., I have a sketchpad and a ton of drawings. There are drawings all over the place.
If you weren't a designer what would you be?
I'd be a full-time mom. I think that's one of the most important jobs. And I loved being a teacher. Wore me out, but I loved it. Really hard work but I never went home tired.
What's the most exciting thing that's happened to you on the job?
Well, I met my husband. He worked for homeland security and had nominated a family for a home makeover. Most people nominate themselves, but he nominated this family who really needed help. What a guy. He's amazing.
Did getting married change the colors of your life?
Well, I like the restful colors. I'm really inspired by sand, sea and sky. Then I marry this great guy and he likes red. I don't like to generalize, but I'm going to go ahead and say that men are drawn to Hot Wheels racecar colors. Most of my male clients seem to be fine with any color that looks like a Ferrari. Just look at the set of something like ESPN and you'll see all those lurid colors men like, screaming red and yellow. I had five sisters so I love the change. Anything red, green, blue and black — that's fun.
