Writing with an exuberant love of language and detail, Anjelica Huston shares her enchanted childhood in Ireland, her teen years in London,
Academy Award-winning actress and director Anjelica Huston has received honors from the National Society of Film Critics; the Independent Spirit Awards; a Golden Globe Award; as well as multiple Oscar, Golden Globe, BAFTA, and Emmy awards and nominations. Anjelica most recently starred on the hit TV show Smash.
The acrtess' new memoir might not be the kind of thing you'd expect from a longtime A-list actress and daughter of film royalty. Forget the glamour and debauchery of the familiar Hollywood tell-all.

How would VERA/VSIP affect retirement pay?
January 31st, 2012 | Creditable service: CSRS Creditable service: FERS CSRS annuity computation DOWNSIZING Early retirement RETIREMENT Special retirement supplement VSIP
Q. I am a Civil Service Retirement System/Federal Employees Retirement System offset employee with 31 years of service, and I have been offered Voluntary Early Retirement Authority and Voluntary Separation Incentive Payments (VERA/VSIP). I would like to know how a VERA/VSIP would affect my retirement. I have been depositing the maximum in my TSP account, and I see that the government is not required to match it. Does government matching or not matching my deposit depend on the agency I work for?
A. To estimate what your annuity would be, use the formulas for each retirement system:
FERS: 0.01 x your three highest consecutive years of average salary (your high-3) x all years and full months of FERS service.
CSRS: 0.015 x your high-3 x 5 years of CSRS service, plus 0.0175 x your high-3 x 5 years of CSRS service, plus
0.02 x your high-3 x all remaining years and full months of CSRS service.
Unused sick leave that doesn't exceed the amount you had to your credit when you transferred to FERS will be added to your CSRS service. If you retire before 2013, half of any remaining hours will be added to your FERS service. In both cases, hours that don't add up to a month (approximately 174 hours) will be dropped.
As a FERS employee, if you retire before age 62, you will be entitled to the special retirement supplement, which is approximately the amount of Social Security benefit earned while you were a FERS employee. Here's the formula: Social Security benefit estimate provided by the Social Security Administration x total years of FERS service rounded up to the next higher year divided by 40.
The basic rules on the amount of a Voluntary Separation Incentive Payment are as follows: An amount equal to the severance pay you would be entitled to, without an adjustment for any previous payments made or an amount determined by the head of your agency, not to exceed $25,000. Only your agency can tell you if you're eligible for a VSIP and, if so, in what amount.
Another Fed Says:
February 1st, 2012 at 1:22 pm
To me it sounded like the person asking the question is a CSRS Offset employee not a FERS employee. They wouldn't receive matching TSP from any agency if they are CSRS Offset. The information regarding retirement plan annuity calculations sounds correct though.
Pat P Says:
February 1st, 2012 at 2:27 pm
It looks like this person is trying to say they are CSRS-Offset. CSRS-Offset employees, like straight CSRS, are not entitled to the TSP match, by law. This is because CSRS and CSRS-Offset get the higher percentage for retirement, nearly twice what FERS employees get. The TSP match for FERS is an attempt to makeup for that.

Payrolls Probably Rose in November as U.S. Economy Grew - Bloomberg
An increase in November payrolls probably pushed U.S. job gains past the 1 million mark for the year as the world's largest economy strengthened heading into 2011, economists said before a report today.
Actually, they were up 39,000, not even enough to keep the percentage rate from increasing. Yikes.
This is how it feels to be an Apple shareholder this week.
If you haven't heard, iPads are sold out nationwide and it's not even out yet, and the Wall Street Journal just confirmed that iPhone 4.0 is coming in June. Just for kicks, they led everyone to believe there'll be a Verizon and Sprint iPhone by Christmas, too. You're welcome.

AppleInsider | Apple to build 8-10M iPads in 2010, begins shipping preorders
In a new note to investors, analyst Katy Huberty with Morgan Stanley said suppliers for the iPad have currently forecast 2.5 million iPads to be shipped in the first three months of availability, from March to May. In all, Apple will ship between 8 million and 10 million by the end of 2010, suppliers said — a number much higher than the previous expectation of 5 million.
My forecast was for 1.5 million by the end of the first three months, and ten million by the end of the year. I think if Huberty's right in the short-term, then she's shallow on the long-run number. 2.5 million should convert to ~12 million units by the end of the year. The acceleration in sales is going to be incredible once the app scene picks up and provides a torrent of compelling reasons to own the device.

On Apple's $40 billion, and the question of dividends
Apple has not declared a dividend since December of 1995. After the last shareholder meeting, Steve Jobs stated that the money was best left in the bank so there would be no question of loans if something big was to be bought. "The cash in the bank gives us tremendous flexibility," explained Steve.
That's true, but that's not the reason for no dividend. Dividends necessarily impact market capitalization negatively. Few things, in my mind, are as important to Mr. Jobs as Apple exceeding Microsoft in terms of market capitalization. AAPL needs to get to around $300 per share for this to happen; it's trading at $235 today after trading as low as $78 a year ago. Jobs will do nothing to harm his ability to reach this goal, unless it's significantly positive for the business. For example, long-term component deals, minor acquisitions and similar methods of using that warchest are fine. Simply "giving it away" to shareholders that are already seeing a gigantic yield? Never.

Realizing Money Just Symbolic Illusion, US Economy Grinds to Halt
Bernanke, who then paused for a moment, looked down at his prepared statement, and shook his head in utter disbelief. "You know what? It doesn't matter. None of this—this so-called 'money'—really matters at all." "It's just an illusion," a wide-eyed Bernanke added as he removed bills from his wallet and slowly spread them out before him. "Just look at it: Meaningless pieces of paper with numbers printed on them. Worthless." According to witnesses, Finance Committee members sat in thunderstruck silence for several moments until Sen. Orrin Hatch (R-UT) finally shouted out, "Oh my God, he's right. It's all a mirage. All of it—the money, our whole economy—it's all a lie!"

PORTAGE | The Portage Township School Board this week approved a five-year lease/purchase agreement to equip all district buses with GPS equipment.
The agreement with Synovia of Indianapolis will cost about $230,000 over the five years, and will cover equipment, software and maintenance for 104 district school buses.
Director of Support Services Dave Harman proposed the project. Presently 40 buses have GPS technology attached. Expanding the program, he said, will allow greater tracking capability of school buses not only by the transportation department, but, in the future by building principals and parents, as well.
Its goal is to also help more efficiently manage the fleet by providing data for route management. It will also provide data for payroll efficiency.

New, ultra-thin Motorola XT1021, XT1022 and XT1025 to be launched next month?
While the resolution of the new handset's 4.3-inch screen isn't known, Tecnoblog received a screenshot that reveals other features: Android 4.4 KitKat, a 1.2GHz dual-core processor of unknown provenience, 5MP rear camera, 1GB of RAM, 4GB of internal memory (probably expandable via microSD), and a 1,900 mAh battery.
Earlier this month, the XT1021 was approved by the FCC, which revealed that the handset has AT&T-friendly 3G connectivity (WCDMA 850 / 1900 MHz). Of course, this doesn't mean that AT&T intends to release the smartphone, although it could do it.

Slovakia beats U.S. to reach world hockey quarters
Helsinki, Finland (Sports Network) - Slovakia needed a win Tuesday in its round-robin finale to reach the quarterfinals of the 2013 World Hockey Championship and did just that with a convincing 4-1 victory over the United States.
The Americans would have claimed first place in Group H with a win, but fell behind 3-0 and never recovered. The U.S. and Russia are tied for first, but Finland can claim the top spot in the group with a win against Latvia later Tuesday.
Branko Radivojevic scored just 15 seconds into the game after a misplay by American goaltender Ben Bishop and Martin Bartek made it 2-0 at the 3:44 mark. A Craig Smith penalty midway through the second led to a power-play goal from Rene Vydareny for a 3-0 Slovakia cushion.
Danny Kristo scored in the final minute of the second period for the U.S., but Rastislav Stana turned aside all seven American shots he faced in the third and Marko Dano found the empty net to seal it for Slovakia.
Stana finished with 20 saves for Slovakia, which will finish fourth in the group and will face the group winner in Thursday's quarterfinals.
Bishop stopped 22 shots for the Americans, whose quarterfinal opponent will be determined after the Finland-Latvia game.
Switzerland, meanwhile, completed an undefeated round-robin slate with a 4-1 win over Belarus and wrapped up the top spot in Group S, two points ahead of Canada.

The first electronic antiskid braking systems (ABS) were introduced 25 years ago. Since then the original ABS setups have evolved from basic systems designed to combat wheel lockup and skidding under braking into traction control systems that also prevent wheelspin under acceleration. By the late '90s, some high-performance sports cars morphed the technology even further, introducing electronic stability control (ESC) that automatically brakes individual wheels as needed for improved handling and steering control. ESC is so effective in preventing accidents that the Feds have mandated that every new U.S. car and truck be equipped with ESC by 2012. Yet all along, mainstream engineers have insisted it was impossible to safely retrofit OE systems into earlier cars.
And whether due to street market liability concerns or the outlaw status of ABS in most racing series, the aftermarket has so far failed to develop even a basic electronic ABS retrofit kit, leaving it up to pioneering individuals to point the way. One man who wasn't afraid to throw away the book is Matt Jones, an engineer at Art Morrison Enterprises. He's successfully swapped a full ESC system into his '69 Camaro. Powered by a modern LS engine and shifted by a T56 six-speed, the car's been thoroughly modernized with a Morrison front subframe and rack-and-pinion steering up front, along with a Morrison three-link supporting a 9-inch Ford rearend out back. The sheetmetal and dash are now about the only remaining original parts.
How It Works
Original, pure ABS stopped wheel lockup and skidding under braking by pulsing the brakes if it detected an incipient lockup condition. Depending on the system's sophistication, there could be two, three, or four channels (data sensors) that communicated with the brake computer (EBCM or electronic brake control module). Usually found on high-end sports cars, the four-channel systems offer the best response and are easier to retrofit.
To control vehicle stability in addition to braking, the latest ESC integrates steering angle, yaw, and lateral acceleration sensors into the EBCM. Based on the data from these sensors, plus four-wheel speed sensors, the EBCM software determines if there are any abnormal differences between the speeds of the right and left front and rear wheels. For example, if a car oversteers when cornering and the rearend starts to come around, this increases the speed differential between the left and right front wheels; conversely, understeering results in a loss of front traction, decreasing the left and right wheel speed differential. If the speed differential is outside of normal parameters, the system tries to resolve the problem by applying counter-braking at individual wheels. In production applications, the EBCM may also tie into the engine control unit (ECU). When interconnected, the typical control strategy is to first reduce ignition timing when wheelspin is detected, then reduce throttle angle if the timing reduction didn't work, and finally apply the brakes to a particular wheel.
Which Donor?
Currently the EBCM can't be reprogrammed. You'll need to find a donor car with similar overall weight, front/rear weight distribution, center of gravity, roll rate, and wheelbase. Never use a front-wheel-drive setup on a rear-drive car. Avoid truck units; designed to be much more tolerant of widely varying load conditions (empty or fully loaded), they generally exhibit excessive lag time in a spirited sports car. Although more readily available, a system out of an econobox—even if rear drive—is also less desirable compared with one from a higher-end car like a Camaro, police car, or Corvette.
Jones picked a Bosch ESC used on the '02 Z06 Corvette as the best solution for his early Camaro. It helped that Jones' car was already running Morrison's replacement front subframe that uses the late-Vette suspension—the front knuckles and rotors were already set up to accept the Vette sensors. Overall, Jones feels the Corvette setups are very adaptive to high-performance, similar-weight-class cars. The Z06 EBCM has the most aggressive programming, but the architecture on any '01 to '04 Vette should be similar. If all you want is ABS and possibly traction control without full ESC, a '99 to '02 F-car (Camaro/Firebird) four-channel EBCM is more available and affordable.
Wheel Sensors
Besides the early GM Camaro/Firebird, Morrison also offers frames or subframes for second-gen F-cars, C1 Vettes, and one-off customs with the Vette suspension and its ABS-compatible steering knuckles (as a company, Morrison doesn't officially support ABS conversions, though). For those cars still retaining original-style front ends, Speed Tech has bolt-in 6061-T6 forged-aluminum steering knuckles with Vette-type, bolt-in hub assemblies for many older GM cars.
Old-school knuckles that still take separate, nonsealed wheel bearings must use brake rotors that have the proper clearance for the reluctor wheel. One solution—particularly for old GM A-bodies (Chevelles and clones)—could be knuckles from late-GM B-cars (Impala and clones); the '94 to '96 variants with lightweight, four-wheel disc brakes have ABS mounting provisions on the knuckles and integral-hub, 12-inch rotors with the proper clearance. (Redrill the big B-car's 5-on-5-rotor bolt pattern to match the smaller GM car's 4-on-4¾–pattern wheels.)
Vettes have an independent rear, but like most muscle cars, Jones' Camaro runs a solid axle—in his case a 9-inch Ford. Solid rears need the axles machined to accept the ABS reluctor wheel. The Strange axles in Jones' rear use GM-style, 47-tooth reluctor wheels out of a '99 to '02 F-car with traction control. Getting the rear sensor to function properly and clear the parking brake internals and axlehousing mount is, Jones says, "the most difficult part of the whole system. As it turns out, GM has a similar setup to Ford's rear ABS sensor. Wilwood's in-hat parking brake is modeled after a Ford, and my Torino-style housing ends are also Ford based, so really the rear setup is like a Ford, only using a GM sensor and reluctor wheel."

Shout-out to Australian Ludum Dare participants!
Posted by dougalicious (twitter: @dougalicious)October 1st, 2012 10:56 pm
I'd love to know how many Australian Ludum Dares happening for this October challenge?? And especially anyone in Canberra? Being a sole developer gets a bit lonely, so it would be cool to crack a beer with a fellow bleary eyed Ludum Darium at some stage during the comp and share progress and maybe even have a play of your game…

is an outstanding 1907 Bee smoker manufactured by the A.I. Root Company. The back of the smoker is printed with "Manufactured by the A.I. Root Co. Medina, Ohio USA Bee Keepers Supplies Pat'd 9-22-'03, 9-5-'05, 6-4-'07".
The A.I. Root Company was founded 1869 in Medina, Ohio by Amos Ives Root asa manufacturer of beehives and beekeeping equipment. The company in its heydaywas shipping four railroad freight cars of beekeeping equipment a day. The company later installed printing presses and published the magazine Bee culture and the book "ABC of Bee Culture". The company has since retired its printing presses.In 1928 the company began a transition into candle making after a local priest made a request for high quality Liturgical candles. The production of beekeeping equipment was reduced and eventually completely phased out.Amos Ives Root began his career as a jewelry manufacturer and took up beekeeping in his twenties as a hobby. Among his major contributions was a method to harvest honey without destroying the beehive . He became a nationally- and internationally-known expert and a wealthy businessman.Always enthusiastic about technology, he took great interest in the newly-invented automobile , purchasing an Oldsmobile Runabout in 1903. He held strong Christian beliefs, and wrote about his ideas and observations of contemporary society in his trade journal Gleanings in Bee Culture .When he read sketchy newspaper reports about the Wright Brothers in early 1904, he decided to visit them and learn more. He drove his car nearly 200 miles on primitive roads to Dayton. On September 20, he witnessed Wilbur Wright fly the first complete circle by a heavier-than-air flying machine. He apparently also saw several other flights. Greatly enthusiastic about aviation, he delayed publishing an account of the flights in his magazine until the following January at the request of the Wrights. That article and follow ups he wrote were the only published eyewitness reports of Wright Brothers flights at Huffman Prairie , a pasture outside Dayton w the Wrights developed the first practical airplane. He offered his reports to Scientific American magazine, but was turned down.In the late 1920s, his company transitioned to the manufacture of specialized candles for liturgical and other uses. The original brick factories still exist and still produce candles. The company is still owned by the Root family and is run by his great grandson.

Munising, Michigan
3 days ( 27 miles)
Runs- May, June and September on Demand- minimum paddlers- 6
July and August- minimum paddlers 12
Munising Bay is one of the most protected bays found along the Lake Superior shoreline. Sheltered from the north by Grand Island, which is about the same size as Manhattan Island in New York City, the winds and waves of Lake Superior very rarely keep us from getting on the water.
Grand Island possesses many unique features and provides a variety of recreational opportunities. This newly established National Recreation Area is home to unique vegetation, a substantial black bear population, peregrine falcons, bald eagles, whitetail deer and loons. The northern end of the island provides picturesque sandstone cliffs reaching over 200 feet high, and the southern end holds excellent camping opportunities on the sand beaches located around the coastline.
Grand Island is just a short paddle across the East Channel of Munising Bay from our departure point at Sand Point. This crossing is (.7) of a mile. This is our preferred departure point for the day trip. Paddling along the east side of the Thumb you will encounter many sea caves and waterfalls. Also the historic East Point lighthouse and an eagle's nest are seen. Paddle over a shipwreck and explore a beautiful cove for agates and other beautiful rocks. If the wind and wave conditions make the Sand Point departure point to rough, we then often can depart from Powell Point. We reach the shoreline at Williams Point on the southern tip of the Island and then proceed on a northeasterly course into Murray's Bay. Murray's Bay is about 2 miles long and ¾ miles wide and very well protected. Paddling around the shoreline and to Muskrat Point one can still visualize the past when the Native Americans occupied this southern part of Grand Island with their villages and trading Posts. The secluded north shore boasts pristine beaches and offers a clear view of the stars and night sky like you've never seen before.

Saying Goodbye . . . Again.
The last two years have been a rollercoaster of emotions to say the least. There have been ups and downs to such extremes that it leaves me wondering how I've managed to piece together anything that resembles a normal and happy life. But, hindsight being what it is, I can look back now and recognize the progress I've made as a grieving widower and a single father to an amazing little girl. These past two years have had no shortage of emotional hurdles to overcome, some small and some large, but none as big as saying goodbye to the home that Ali and I built together. The home we started our married lives together in. The home we brought Olivia to after she was born. The home we turned from a shabby little fixer upper into an award winning showcase property (according to the Price Hill Press!). In many ways it felt like the last vestige of the life that we set out to build together. It felt as though leaving that house would be the first step in a new life that Olivia and I would build together. . .without Ali.
We said goodbye to Ali two years ago but her presence has remained undeniable in that house. Every square inch of it was carefully and thoughtfully decorated by her and it was as if she had never left. I remember, in the days and weeks after she died, it was impossibly difficult to live there day in and day out with constant reminders of the loss we all suffered. I walked around the house with blinders on just trying to avoid looking at every little item that she left behind. And slowly those reminders of the pain turned in to little moments of comfort. I knew she was gone but I could look at her things, all those untouched little artifacts, and know that she was there with me. I found comfort in bottles of shampoo and drawers full of socks and jewelry still neatly organized. But always in the back of my mind I knew I would eventually have to say goodbye to the shrine that I was building up in my mind just like I had to say goodbye to her.
Ali and I bought our house on the day before our wedding and we thought that having some of our wedding photos taken in the empty house would be an appropriate and memorable way to commemorate such a big step in our lives (see the original wedding day session here). As wedding days go, it all happened in a blur, but those images represent some of the happiest moments in my life. It was the beginning of what we planned on being a long and happy life together. And so, when it came time to pack up the house and schedule the movers, I struggled with the thought of saying goodbye and walking away without something to commemorate such a big step in mine and Olivia's life. Having world-class photographers in the family is a nice perk that I try not to abuse, but I managed to sneak into Melanie and Adam's busy schedule and we set out to once again do a photo session in that empty house. Only this time I would have a different partner, although one just as beautiful. It was fun and strange and sad and comforting and just about every other emotion you can think of. And, it wasn't until I drove away that the significance of what we had just done hit me like a ton of bricks. These would be the last memories in that house.
Side by sides from the original photo session on our wedding day.
I did it for me. I did it for us. I did it so I would have something to show for the love and beauty that occupied that house for a short time in our lives. I wanted to be able to show Olivia the place where her mother and I started our lives together and dreamed of raising children. I thought it would be much harder to say goodbye in this way, but as I sat in the driveway, ready to drive away for the last time, I realized that it's just a house. The memories of Ali don't live in that house. They live with us, in our hearts. We take them with us wherever we go and they will live with us in our new house too. A house is just a house. Yes, I will miss it but I still have the memories of Ali and I still have Olivia, the most precious evidence of the love Ali and I shared and still share. Since Melanie posted the photos on her blog, many people have asked me how I felt while doing that photo session. What I want them to know is that this isn't a story about grief and loss and hurt. Yes, I've gone through those emotions and still do but that's not what I want people to see in these photos. This is a story about love. The pain is nothing compared to the love that I feel for Ali and Olivia and that's the story I want these pictures to tell to Olivia in the years to come and anyone else that sees them. The pain will subside little by little but the love never will, no matter where we live. Our lives will continue down a curvy and uncertain path but Olivia and I will be able to look at these photos and know that for a short time there was a place where I was the luckiest man in the world, even if just for a little while.

Welcome Home.
I have so much to say but words are escaping me lately so I will get out what I can. 6 years ago this month, we bought our first home in Westwood. We poured our hearts, souls and a shit ton of money into making it our own. I loved that home. It was so good to us and we were so thankful to have been gently eased into homeownership.
When we decided to list the house I just knew I would sell in 2 weeks or less. It was priced cheap for a fully renovated house on a great street. In fact almost every single one of the inspectors/contractors/appraisers/whoever else I paid money to that had to come into the house immediately said how perfect and beautiful it was. All were floored at the selling price and THREE of them were mad they didn't see it listed because they wanted it! As most of you know, my sister Ali lived with us there. (She's the real reason the front yard no longer looks like the forest shown below. She insisted we tear it all out and plant new. She was good at spending our money.) But I was also confident Ali would see to it that the transition from one home to the next would be as easy as possible on me. Sure enough, 2 weeks and a lot of prayers later, we accepted an offer. Packing up began and the (stressful) buying process began.
Now I knew leaving the house would be hard but I had been so anxious to get into the new house that I wasn't feeling very emotional. And then came moving week. Gah. Ali barely lived with us for a year and a half. That's not even a long time. But in that short period, loads of memories were formed. Unforgettable ones. When my sister passed, at least I still had our house full of memories. I could close my eyes and see her on the couch next to me. Hear her footsteps above me. Hear her yelling at me from the kitchen that Adam didn't do his dishes again. See her out the living room window cutting not just mine, but our neighbors grass at a jogging speed (to get exercise) as she crossed through 3 yards back n forth. All of those memories were readily available when I needed them just by looking around.
When I started reorganizing and de-cluttering (like a million diff times) pre listing, I would find things she left behind at my house that I didn't realize. Mostly just piles of crap in the basement that was once were her super cool goodwill purchases and needing to be taken back, immediately. But then there was the bin full of college photos and other randoms where her smile was ear to ear. I could hear her laughing. Then there was her Michael Jackson memoribilia board with a record, sequin glove, cassette and a printed autograph. My tears turned into laughter and I was able to go back working. On the last night at our house I laid on our mattress on the floor next to boxes and my broken down bedframe just absorbing as much as I could. It's so silly to think the memories weren't coming with us to the new house, but it was the feeling I had over closing my last open chapter to her life, with me.
The second day after we closed, I went alone to a mostly empty house to clean for the new owners. Wouldn't you know the only things that remained hidden for me to find were Ali's! I know she did that just for me. Closure I guess? Upstairs I found her round brush wedged between the sink and the wall. The back of her old closet was open to crawlspace. There I found a couple of her (14 thousand) totes. (I actually left them there, just because. And also because they were ugly, which is probably why she originally left them.) As I vacuumed the upstairs one last time, I was
not really shocked to see glitter from her over dramatic Christmas tree still stuck in the wooden floor boards. I cried. A lot. I was very thankful the new owners didn't come to get the keys then, because they may have thought I was a real nut job. And after I finally gained my composure I went to the basement to gather up odds and ends and I caught a glimpse of color wedged behind some old door frames resting against the wall. It was one of her many $2 hula hoop impulse buys. If you know her, you can easily understand why that's funny. Again my slow falling tears turned to laughter and I called Adam to meet me at the house because I couldn't walk out the door alone, forever. So just like he carried me through the threshold on our wedding day, he carried me out. And I say that laughing because we aren't romantic. I actually wanted to gag just writing that sentence.
Here were are 6 years ago. (I'm pretty sure I just finished playing 3 back to back soccer games.) Lilo looks like a baby fox. HA! I really REALLY wanted to get an updated picture of the 5 of us with the sold sign but unfortunately that didn't work out. Wouldn't that have been adorbs? BOOO.
And now we start a new chapter. A very exciting and overwhelming one. Our house is much bigger and has a lot more space for the kids to mess up and for me to clean. Really, just more space to lose them and for them to do bad things that I can't see. And now we have 3 floors that we use daily. Both Nori and Adam complain about the amount of steps they have to walk, but I'll tell ya, I'm appreciating the extra exercise. (Sad that I consider that exercise?)
I'm SO happy the buying process is finally over and we are settled in. Shout out and many thanks to Frank at Option Financial for busting his ass to allow us to close on time! I'm pretty sure no other lender lets clients meet til 1030pm on a weeknight and responds to phone calls at any hour of ANY day. Anywho, we love it already. Took a couple weeks but I kinda don't feel like I'm house sitting anymore. Bonus is, I've known a handful of our neighbors for 10+ years and on top of that, there are kids everrrrrywhere! Over the weekend there were some school age boys hanging out on our retaining wall. I went out to introduce myself and they're response was, "Hey. We just like to hang out here. It's our spot. You got kids for us to play with?" I love it. Nori is in kid heaven. Adam and I are back on our old stomping grounds and he picked up his old running route from college. I can't believe we are those people but we really are, Westsiiiide fo life.
I've been instagraming bits and pieces of the house interior. Maybe one day when it looks more like what I want, I'll share here.
Ps. The old owners told us after closing that the bushes in the back were rose bushes. It was a very pleasant surprise to wake up yesterday and see them full of PINK blooms!! So I guess Ali did find her way here after all.
Heart, Melanie.
Ps. Brittany and Brian are moving too!
pmhs walk 2013
Thanks Purcell Marian for donating some of this years walk proceeds to the library in Ali's name again! We had fun bringing up the rear AGAIN. ps. Adam is missing because he had to go play golf that day and leave the walk early.
pps. We are still planning on doing an event this year on Ali's bday weekend (july 20th), we are still talking about what we want it to be like, perhaps not a walk…more of a picnic?
Love, Melanie
Dear Ali
Ali B-
Let's start with I think about you every day.
It has been a long journey and I knew for a very long time that Scott was the one. And in many ways I know that you had a hand in making sure that he was my future.
It was March of 2011 and you were too sick with the "Flu" to celebrate Birthday Week. I still have a copy of the email that you sent to plan part of the festivities….
"So either we can go out on Friday and act our age (not 21) and go to fine dining brunch the next day
We can do shots, dance on bars, serve behind bars, make out w random boys and puke. And then crave greasy $1 menu food and fountain sodas..
Up to u Lisa, what kind of Bday are u looking for?"
It was after March that we understood the magnitude of your illness. I cherished my weeknights spending time with you and helping Olivia. I would share my crazy weekend adventures and always made you laugh. One Tuesday night it happened to be my night at the Nunery's. I told you the story of how I confessed to Scott that " I liked him more than everyone else, and I am not sure what to do with that…". And, that I had canceled dinner with him to spend time you. You scolded me for skipping a date to do your dishes. But deep down I knew that with you was exactly where I needed to be.
I knew then how serious this was and spending time with you was the most important thing to me. I cherish every minute.
Scott didn't understand the magnitude of the situation. I didn't do a great job of communicating to anyone but the Xavier girls at that time, and our friendship suffered.
I stood in church where you and Ben were married as we prepared to lay you to rest. As I listened to Ben's words, I selfishly thought to myself that you would never be here to celebrate in my wedding.
Later that month, Scott and I were able to work on friendship, and that turned into a relationship. The next year we were engaged. On April 12th, I married my best friend.
From the time Scott proposed and everyday of planning I thought…"what would Ali do, what would Ali wear, how would you decorate this?" You class and style have had an influence every step of that way. The church's pink Easter flowers were a surprise decoration.
Thank you for letting me borrow your bracelet. I know that it was a favorite. The pearls and bling matched my dress perfectly. Shan, Kerry, Mart and Jack thank you too. (You know we had to buy Shan's shoes for her).
You proved me wrong and I am so very thankful that you were part of Scott and my day in ways we could have never imagined.
With Love~
Thanks for writing that, Lisa. So very sweet.:) I just posted Lisa's wedding pics on my photo blog. You can see them HERE.

Beverly Cleary's 'Ramona and Beezus' Works For Young AdultsSubmitted by BrianTT on July 23, 2010 - 1:18pm
Rating: 3.5/5.0
CHICAGO – "Ramona and Beezus" may not be the perfect film that Beverly Cleary fans hoped for when they fell in love with these characters but it is successful on its own terms in its refusal to talk down to its pre-teen audience and through the massive future star-power of its talented young stars. I admittedly have a soft spot for any film that places teachers on a higher pedestal than businessman and effectively teaches young viewers to stick to their creative visions. It's flawed, but "Ramona and Beezus" works.

Unbelievable: Group Wants to Give Away Free Guns in High Crime Neighborhoods
"Forget gun buybacks, now get ready for a gun giveaway. The man behind an effort to put free shotguns in the hands of homeowners says hell dole them out in the Big Apple by the end of the year and the lawmen may not be able to stop him… His privately funded group wants to give New Yorkers in high-crime areas a $200 shotgun and free weapons training — assuming applicants pass all the legal background checks." (NYDN)
Our take:
- Fighting violence with more violence is not the answer.
- Arming neighborhood vigilantes is one of the single most dangerous plans to militarize our communities.
- Violent crime is not decreased by handing out more guns to perpetuate mayhem and violence.
Think this outrageous? Sign the petition to decrease gun violence here.

My take: your not fighting violence with violence, you're replacing victims with people that can defend themselves....

Many New Hampshire residents would like elections to be about the fiscal issues of taxing and spending and business regulations, while leaving the social issues to fend for themselves. But the various threads that make up the fabric of society are not so easily separated without rending the whole garment. Consider the Constitution of the United States, for example. A government of limited, delegated powers presupposes a free people, and freedom requires a moral people.
Those 30,000 Wal-Mart employees who are losing their health insurance aren't alone. There's another huge wave of cancellations of health plans coming.
Six Years Later: The Clear Connection Between Barack Obama and The WeathermenWritten by Tom DeWeese
In more than forty years, Ayers, Dorhn, Rudd, and Jones were not heard from in the mainstream media. They had not been an issue in any presidential election. They did not openly promote or support a candidate, snubbing even John Kerry and Bill and Hillary Clinton as not being revolutionary enough for their agenda for the destruction of America. Until Barack Obama. These four are dedicated Marxist revolutionaries. Why Obama? You don't need a Weatherman to know why.

How to reset Lion back to the Setup Assistant
When preparing a Mac for sale/passing on, I do wipe the drive (usually with seven-pass data overwrite) and reinstall the OS. But as others have said, if you want to install software such as the iLife that came with the computer, you need to create an account to do so. I also include the original disks, but most computer users aren't tech-savvy enough to install the software if it's not on the drive. I also run software update as others have mentioned. My experience in technical support for friends shows that non-tech people often don't install updates even though you get notified and it's a one-click process. I consider it good manners when selling a Mac to ship it in an up-to-date condition that provides a proper 'out of the box' experience (I.e. the Setup Assistant). Hence this hint. :-)
How to reset Lion back to the Setup Assistant
I approach passing on computers to others exactly the same way; your work on this hint is much appreciated. :)

Ritual Front are a neo-folk band from St. Petersburg, Russia, and The Sun Of The Dead is their new EP, following their Lightnings Over Crimson Hill release of 2005 and several compilation appearances. As often seems to be the case with Russian bands, I can find information in Russian, but, frustratingly, nothing much in English. Anyway, Ritual Front is a duo consisting of singer Michael A., who also plays keyboards, melodica and tambourine, and guitarist and drummer Roric. They also feature several guest musicians, who bring in more acoustic instruments, including flute and violin, which adds to a nicely organic folk sound, without excessive reliance on keyboards to bulk out the music.

John Gorka's 'Bright Side Of Down' is CD of the week on High Plains Morning
By Mike Fuller
'Bright Side Of Down' is John Gorka's 1st record in 4 years, and it was well worth the wait. First coming to prominence in the "new folk" boom of the early 80's, (he won the Kerrville New Folk award in 1984) Gorka is well-known for his beautifully crafted, insightful, wry and honest songs. We have the opportunity to preview this record all week on High Plains Morning before it's official release on March 4. Tune in!

1/1 Photo of Southern Yellow Squash Casserole
Prep Time:
Cook Time:
25 mins

Also known as Summer Squash Casserole, this is a very simple yet authentic Southern recipe that my family has been making for years. This casserole goes very well with those summer, fresh vegetable dinners and is also a hit at pot luck dinners, family reunions, or any other gathering of people. As with all good southern food, make sure you have your bottle of bright red paprika ready to sprinkle on top. Enjoy!
