May 26, 2003: Monday
After getting up 3am to make the flight from Denver to Mazatlan via a short
breakfast layover in Phoenix, my teammate for the week, Jobey Siciliano, and I
finally made it to the Plaza Gaviotas hotel which is located right in the middle
of where you want to be in Mazatlan and right across the street from the ocean.
By noon we were sitting oceanside having lunch by sea, not a bad way to start a
trip at all. The rest of our Hermosillo, Senora based VH-Norson, Tecate Lite
team arrived that evening, got us all registered and we were good to go.
Just before sunset Joby and I sat up on a rooftop patio and watched surfers
taking advantage of a point break that was just up the beach. It is incredible
that thousands of miles earlier these 3-foot waves were huge 50-foot swells
coming off of Alaska; the self-generated power of the earth is an amazing thing
It is also incredible that this morning we were thousands of miles and a
world away from all of this.
May 27, 2003: Tuesday
Etapa 1
Todays opening stage was a 4k point-to-point ITT that went right along
Mazatlans spectacular coastline. Although you dont appreciate it at 185bpm,
the views from the course are absolutely incredible! There are a few small
islands about ¼ mile off shore and pelicans are everywhere skimming along the
top of breaking waves, surfing the updraft that is created.
When I raced in Hermosillo, Senora earlier in the year I did not bring any
aero equipment and really regretted the decision. I was not going to make that
mistake again and although I was not about to travel here with 2 bikes I did
bring clip-on aero bars, TT helmet and a disk wheel. This is not as fast as my
normal TT bike but it is much better than nothing!
Since the course was so short we had enough time in between our respective
start times to pass my wheels around to a couple of the other guys on the team.
Most of them have never used a disk wheel and were really fired up just to get
the chance to ride one.
Just before I started it was nice to see a familiar face in the crowd, Jesus
Zarate (ex-Mercury rider). He is now racing for the Equipo Chocolate-Mayordomo,
a Mexican candy bar manufacturer. He is such a good guy, not to mention
incredible rider, I was glad to see that he is doing well and still stomping it
on the bike.
My race went OK; I am still trying to figure out how to ride a good TT, some
day I will get it right. I started out a little too hard and was really paying
the price by about the ½ way mark. I managed to recover, catch my minuteman and
finish strong with a time of 5:18, about 10 seconds off the podium. This has
put me in 12th place GC but by gaining only 5 seconds I would be able to move
into the top 5.
May 28, 2003: Wednesday
Etapa 2
We have set up an agreement with a tiny restaurant that is just around the
corner from our hotel called Palapa (a palapa is a traditional wood and palm
roof that is common on many buildings). The food that we are getting is hand
made by a family for us; our OJ is even freshly squeezed! They are cooking all
of our meals and the team will pay for them at the end of the trip, 30 pesos per
rider per meal (which is about $3). It is so cool that they are not worried
about us skipping town without paying and it is interesting that no one other
than Joby and myself think that it is a little bit odd. I think that it has
something to do with the amount of respect that people generally seem to have
for each other here or possibly the lack of respect that many have in the
This morning after breakfast we put in our dinner order for after the race,
this way the food will be all prepared when we walk in at 6 oclock.
Todays race was a 115k-road race that is a rolling out-and-back course that
heads north out of Mazatlan along the ocean and then back south along the same
road. Our plan was to set up the lead-out train 2k from the finish and have me
go for the stage win. An added bonus of the stage win is that with any time
bonus I could move up in the GC
that was the plan anyway.
The racing was good with plenty of attacks coming whenever the pace dropped
below 25mph. The only negative to the racing is that the Mexican powerhouse,
Equipo Tecos-Mercurio has 15 guys entered in the race and they have the
horsepower to chase down any move that they are not completely happy with.
About an hour into the race, with the pace holding a steady 30mph in the
gutter I managed to hit one of the worlds biggest topes (those little turtle
like reflectors on the side of the road) and got a rear flat. I thought that
our team car was in the caravan but they had stopped to help someone else out
and I had to sit on the side of the road for over 5 minutes before they finally
came along to give me a wheel change.
The big bummer was that one of the commissars stopped with me and would not
allow our driver, Santiago Lopez, to pace me back up to the pack. It was early
in the race and with 65 miles left to race I was super worried not only about
not getting back to the pack but about missing the time cut as well.
I put my head down and ITTed as fast as I could and even though I was keeping
my speed up around 30mph I was still losing time on the field. After an hour of
only closing 2-minutes, one of the support vehicles came by and gave me a short
but super fast tow, although it was not for too long it was enough to get me
motivated to go hard again.
This was one of the scariest tows I have ever gotten (
not that I have
ever been towed before). I was holding onto the open window of the passenger
side door and the driver put the hammer down. We were ripping along at 55mph
and I was praying that I was not going to end up under the truck instead of next
to it. To stop my bike from wobbling I pinched the top tube between my legs and
was holding onto the bar on for dear life. It was 95 degrees out and 100%
humidity I was completely covered in sweat and my knees kept slipping around on
the top tube. I was too concerned with making up time so I dared not chicken
out and let go.
After about a minute we started to catch some riders who were dropped and the
driver motioned for me to let go of the door. The main peloton was still a way
up the road but catching riders was good for my motivation and I continued to
drive it along.
I passed bunches of little Mexican riders who were not able to hang on to the
field in the crosswind and some jumped on my wheel for a free ride home. By the
time we reached the META (finish) I had passed about 35 riders and finished in a
groupetto of at least 15. My hopes of moving up on the GC have gone right out
the window but my teammate David Solomon from CD Obregon in Senora finished 2nd
on the day and has moved up to 3rd overall. Since I finished so far down today
I now have the freedom to go on the attack and I may not get chased, well see
May 29, 2003: Wednesday
Etapa 3
Today was a point-to-point road race that started 125k north of Mazatlan and
came straight down along the coast with the last half of the race being on the
same course that we raced yesterday. The race started with 9 neutral laps
around the town square, just to give the people who lived in the town a little
On the last of our parade laps I managed to hit a pothole and once again
immediately flatted. I cut the course to where the car was parked and after
getting a quick change from our mechanic and with only having to chase for 1k I
regained contact with the field. I was worried about flatting again and did not
want to have another day like yesterday.
With a stiff side/headwind coming off the ocean, whenever the pace picked up
the field would go single-file along a cement barrier that separated the
highway. The barrier was a challenge in and of itself. The cement portion was
about 3 feet high with a thick fencing which stood another 3 feet on top of
that. The wall was not the only problem; every so often the fence was broken
and hanging out into the road. There were a few occasions where my knuckles
were actually hitting the fencing; needless to say I was a little nervous about
About ½ way into the race one of the riders on Equipo Canels Turbo got a
little too close to the cement wall and ended up sliding along it NASCAR style.
I was about 3 bikes behind watching the sparks coming off of his left pedal as
wondering if he was losing skin on his hands as his bars also scraped along the
cement. This guy must have some fantastic karma because he managed to push off
the wall, right himself and not fall or take anyone else down, although he did
get an earful from everyone around him.
Once again the racing was very aggressive and I managed to get into the only
break of the day but even we only managed to stay away for 20 minutes. Equipo
Tecos-Mercurio were more content to send most of their 15 riders to the front
and they just rode a hard tempo all day. The final 20k were very fast and the
lead group was whittled down to about 25. I was sitting on Jobey with David on
my wheel doing the whole bar-banging routine trying to stay up at the front.
With 3k to go, 2 guys attacked and got a small gap on us; we were caught off
guard and Jobey was forced to chase them down. We caught them with 2k to go but
Joby had burned all his matches. Immediately two more Tecos riders jumped but I
was ready for them and slipped in 3rd wheel with David still glued to mine. We
were place perfectly but the first guy ran out of gas and his teammate wouldnt
take over since we were still over 1k out.
David got a bit anxious and I was getting boxed in and our lead-out train
completely fell apart. David was trying to sprint from a k out and I was
getting swarmed from every direction. In retrospect I should have put the
hammer down as soon as the first guy cracked but my hesitation killed our
chances; live and learn I guess.
I am a little nervous for tomorrow, it is a long day that finishes with a
20-mile climb and the last 4 miles are supposedly heinous. Hopefully I will get
in a small early move that gives us a nice gap before we start going up; it
never hurts to dream.
May 30, 2003: Thursday
Etapa 4
Today was one of the more difficult rides that I have done in a while. The
race was only 80 miles with a big climb at the end. I thought that it would be
no problem hanging in and at the base of the climb help get David into a good
position and then spin my way on in to the finish in the groupetto. Rarely do
things pan out as planned.
The race ended up being slightly up hill all the way with the last 2/3
turning into what felt like a death-march. There were the normal attacks that
started up just after the neutral zone ended. I even went on the move a few
times but I quickly figured out that the only way people were going to get out
of the peloton was out the back.
About 20 miles in we hit the first of 3 starter climbs that were all about
3k long, one right after another and insanely hard. I positioned myself at the
front about 7 wheels back for each, where I would not have to worry about people
gapping or surging. This worked out well, I had to climb hard but I did not
have too much trouble holding the wheel in front of me. By the top of the 2nd
climb the main field was becoming much smaller and the attacks completely
stopped, guys were starting to get tired, scared or both.
My main problem today (other than I am not a great climber) is that I had no
idea what the course was like, how long the climbs were or where the META was.
By the top of the main climb, which was over 20 miles long and you had to climb
in your 2 easiest gears, I was solamente, riding in no man's land. I was about
90 seconds behind the second group on the road and there was no one in sight
behind me. I like to think of this situation as being one of the weaker
I say this because there are the pure climbers (of which there were about 10)
who were riding for the win and who were also way up the road. Then there is
the 2nd group (of which there were about 15) who are good climbers but are not
strong enough to ride for the win, this is the group that I am about 30-watts
shy of being able to ride in. On the plus side there were a ton of guys who
were farther behind me than I was from the leaders (did that make any sense?).
When I reached the top of the main climb there were some guys on the side of
the road cheering and I yelled at them Cuantos kilometros? referring to the
finish and they answered, Venga, venga, un poquito mas (go, go only a little
more). I then passed another rider who basically said the same thing. On a
side note, Jobey and I are the only Americans here and we must stand out
something fierce (or word has gotten out about us) because almost everyone talks
to us very slowly and very loudly in Spanish. Not that that is much help to me
because my Spanish is atrocious no matter how slow you talk to me.
The finish ended up being at the top of the NEXT 5-mile climb. When I was
descending down from the main climb I was certain that I had somehow missed the
finish but I finally saw part of the caravan about 10 switchbacks up the road.
When I was about 5k from the top a police officer decided that he was going to
be my personal escort up to the finish. He was just chatting away to me out of
his passenger window, I had no idea what he was talking about but I just smiled
and every once and I while I would say como? (what?) and he would repeat
whatever he had just said and then continue on. I guess that he thought that I
was just too winded to talk back.
3k from the finish we passed by a huge group of school children who were
begging for our empty water bottles, they were all chanting botalo, botalo,
botalo. I was completely out of water so I tossed a bottle on the ground near
them, what a mistake that was! I was swarmed Tour de France style from all
sides. The kids did not care if I ran them over; they only wanted the coveted
I finally finished and got the scoop of what happened in the race. David had
a great ride and finished 5th on the day and managed to get himself into the
leader's jersey by a slim yet comfortable 30 seconds. This means that our work
is cut out for us tomorrow, we need to keep the field together or have David in
the break. As long as he finishes with the front group we will be able to win
the overall.
May 31 2003: Saturday
Etapa 5
Toady was the day of truth for us and we went in feeling confident that we
could defend the leader's jersey. With only 5 guys within striking distance we
knew what we had to do to keep the jersey. The course was a 3k hotdog
out-and-back loop along the main boulevard that parallels the ocean. The field
was sure to break up from the stiff side wind and the yo-yo effect that was sure
to happen at each turnaround.
Our team was very attentive straight from the start; I think that everyone
was a little overanxious to help out. I was only following the moves that had
one of the 5 danger men while some of the other guys were chasing down anything
that got a gap on the field. There is nothing wrong with this except that they
were burning up valuable matches that they might need later on in the race.
Again the race was packed with attacks and I was just trying to keep myself
near the front. Then the worst-case scenario for us happened. The group was in
the gutter and we were absolutely flying along, it was everything I had to just
hold the wheel in front of me (and I was 3rd wheel!). After 2 laps I found
myself in a select group of 6 that contained 4 of the 5 danger men and our GC
man, David, missed the move.
I sat on the back of the group, not working, waiting for the team to bring
our group back or bridge David up. A few laps later we had established a good
gap on everyone and David was without any teammates and was losing ground fast.
This was a tough spot for me to be in. Since I had David chasing I was not
obligated to do any work in the group, which meant that I had a free ride to the
finish. I was also feeling great and knew that I had a great chance to win the
The team was calling for me to drop back to try and help David but I knew
that there was no way we were going to bring the break back. I managed to
swallow my pride, be the team player and sat up to help him out. He was over
1-minute back and 2 groups behind us. When they caught me I pulled for 2 laps
as hard as I could and then tried to sit in and take a break but no one was
willing (or able) to help and David was too wasted to work. I kept pulling and
we caught the second group on the road but we were not taking any time back on
the lead group.
In the end we finished over 1-minute behind the lead group and David dropped
to 5th on GC. Everyone was a bummed out but I think it was a good learning
experience for everyone. In hindsight maybe I should have just sat on the lead
group, David would have still gotten 5th but we may have gotten the stage win as
All in all it was great racing, and the guys on Equipo VH-Norson/Tecate Light
are great. There has already been some talk about them coming and doing some
racing in the US and of us possibly coming back to do some more racing here.
If anyone is able to make it down to Mazatlan in the near future, be sure to
visit Pura Vita for the best mango smoothie you have ever had, go to Joe's
Oyster Bar on a Saturday night for dancing until 4am and be sure to eat all of
your meals at Palapas, it is the best $3 you will ever spend.
Vatos Locos Forever,

Jenna Fischer and her husband Lee Kirk are relatively new parents (to 22-month-old son, Weston), so it was a luxury to spend a night out in New York City Monday.
The pair attended a special screening of Girl Most Likely (starring Kristen Wiig and Annette Bening), hosted by The Cinema Society and Brooks Brothers. Afterwards, the couple headed over – along with much of the cast – to a rooftop party at Hotel Americano.
"They were adorable," says an onlooker. While guests sipped Kim Crawford Sauvignon Blanc and Pinot Noir, "Jenna munched on a beef slider, and Lee stayed close to her most of the night. They were laughing and smiling," as they mingled with other celeb guests.

Yes, the cast of The Office heard the return rumors too – and no, they weren't going to spoil the surprise.
"It was so thrilling. We all just flat-out lied," John Krasinski tells PEOPLE with a laugh at Massachusetts General Hospital Cancer Center's The One Hundred Gala, held Wednesday in Boston.
"I lied to Letterman! I have to apologize to him for that at some point. It was just one of those things that we all vowed and had to protect," the actor says of keeping Steve Carell's last hurrah under wraps. "Look what happened – it was the best. The 'that's what she said' was the perfect use of Steve."

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This school has the best Chemistry teacher and students. They are doing work at a college level.
Kansas City is lucky to have such a great school!! What a positive difference these teachers make in the lives of children.
I've been a parent at this school since 2000. Lincoln is one of the strongest public high schools in the region. The school ranked tops on state assessments and in national rankings, the school surpassed the Johnson County, Kansas, and suburban KCMO high schools. It's wonderfully diverse, has a lot to offer families and gives students an introduction to living in a multicultural society. It's a winner!
The teachers seem to not care about the students. I had a meeting with the Vice Principal about academic probation and he said the teachers would keep in touch if my sons grades started to slip. I only recieved 2 calls during the entire school year about my son's progress and the second one was just to suggest I transfer him to a different school in the middle of the semester.
This is a wonderful school in my opinion. I am a 9th grader at LCPA and have been going to Lincoln since 6th grade and i am proud to say that i go to Lincoln College Prep Academy. The one down fall to Lincoln is its very uneventful, you basically are going through the motions until you graduate. I do wish there were more fun ways to learn but that's with all schools. One plus is it is very diverse many different races and people go to this school, yet its not segregated in any way. Like every school there are cliques and the "mean girls" but bullying is disciplined very well (even though it seems every year we get a new administration due to KCMSD). If your in the KCMSD Lincoln is a great choice for your child.
Good to see the "old castle on the hill", is rated so highly. A 9 out of 10 speaks for itself. This school is the beacon light for the district. As an graduate of the school back in the mid 90's, I am proud. I now, am seeking similar results for elementary schools for my children.
I have a child who graduated in '07 and a child who is now a sophomore at the school. While not pefect, this school does prepare children for college and life. The diversity, the strong performance on MO MAP test, the stellar band, Robotics, Latin and Debate make this a school worth checking out.
My son is a junior this year. I also so have a son who graduated in 06 from here. This school is definetly not the school it used to be. Principals changed too many times and the teachers too, No college prep certified teachers in the class room. Counselors are not as good as they used to be either. TheY don't seem to care.
This school is alright. It's not perfect, but it's not terrible. It's better than most schools in the KCMSD (Kansas City Missouri School District) because of its history, extracurriculars, and higher requirements for graduation. It offers a nice IB and AP dual credit program for those who want to try and enter college as a sophomore, because I know many of the school in the district don't really have anything like that. But, some troublemakers tend to slip in through the cracks a little too often and teachers and security aren't really doing anything about it. Our principals have changed every year I've been here (4 years- I'm a senior), and the rules have changed too often to have definite structure. Such is an inner city high school.
This school has wonderous activities, helps my child learn,and makes us both happy!
this is a perfect school for any child. They have well rounded courses. 4 different languages and many electives to choose from/ my daughter got mny scholarship offers when she graduated Lincoln
I am now a sophomore at Lincoln an dit is a wonderful experience. It is valued because of its urban location and population, and how it exceeds above suburban and prestigious schools. Definitely the school to go to if you want to continue your educational journey in college...
I've attended Lincoln Prep since sixth grade and currently I'm a junior at lincoln. i love this school. Not only are the students great to be friends with but this school has a rigorous academic program. i've taken IB and AP classes here and the school pays for alot of the expenses. I know that at other IB world schools, the students and their parents usually have to manage to pay off all thier IB or AP expenses, but at Lincoln, the school usually pays for a majority of the expenses if not all. I'm going to miss this school dearly. Next school year, I will be in Virginia, and attending a different school. based upon research I've done, the schools in danville, virginia do not add up to lincoln at all. i wish that I didnt have to leave. Anyone who attends this school are lucky and should be greatful. ,
I am a current student at Lincoln. I'm now a freshman and I attended the middle school my 6th through 8th grade years. I absolutely love my school. Even though recently we've got new principle's and are having some issues with the new presence, I still love lincoln. No school is perfect and all have a problem here or there. I think that all of my teachers are very helpful and want to make us students the best we can be. I've played volleyball and attempted swim team. I'm also in the school's band. (Which is one of the best) Due to the current district changes, I now have to leave this school that I'm proud to attend and go to Van Horn. . . Even though I sadly have to leave, I will always remember all the school and it's teachers have given me. Felicia
This school does not live up to its reputation.From the outside it seems to be better than the average school when really its not. The only thing that is really better is the discipline. The staff is made up of people who are either absent most the time or very inept.
My daughter is graduating this year from Lincoln College Prep and overall I would not say it has been a good experience. If your looking for a safer school than the usual KCMO school it is definitely that but that as about all i can say about it that is positive. We found the principals in both high and middle school to be basically absentee the office staff to be uncooperative and some of the teachers were actually insulting calling whole classes spoiled brats and worse, some teachers we even found to be borderline senile.
I cannott speak for the present, but when I went there for both middle and high school from 1994-2001 it gave me a solid academic foundation for success in college. Lincoln has rightfully gained the reputation of being the district's flagship, and its teachers (at least formerly) are some of the best you could ever want. I recently graduated from college, and can testify that no college course I have taken equals the difficulty of some of the AP and IB classes I took at LCPA. It deserves the aura of being the best school (private or public) in the Kansas City area. LCPA, thanks for seven years of wonderful memories and a solid educational base for my undergraduate and graduate studies. -Harvey Munshaw LCPA c/o 2001
Now don't get me wrong this is a very smart school but the kids are awful. Constantly fighting and smoking, the behavior is awful I would'nt reccomend it.
Hello, I am a former student of Lincoln Prep. I encourage all parents to send their students here. Many in my graduating class, including myself, went to college with sizeable academic scholarships. Additionally, we also entered college with credits already posted onto our transcripts. The administration has changed since 2004, but the spirit of the school is still one of learning and achievement. The school has a great reputation in the city, and is strongly backed by its alumni. This school is the one beacon of light/hope in an otherwise dreary school district. Parents please stay actively involved in your child's education. It makes a HUGE difference! -Jasmine Taylor 2004 Graduate
The 2004-2005 school year will be my sons final year in LCP Middle. I have found that they work is appropriate and there is a lot of it! Most of the teachers are great and help the kids along the way. We have run into a couple though that do not seem to have the kids' best interests at heart.

Our thanks go to all those who have helped us and are still helping us to realize this ambitious project with their expert advice or assistance. Special thanks to all the instrumentalists, too many to mention, and Dr. Matthias Bertsch from the Institut für Wiener Klangstil. Very special thanks to Professor Heinz Preiss and his daughter Sigrun for allowing us access to the Streitwieser Collection.
But soon after we started work things began to snowball, and what had started out as a "little back-up service" grew and grew until it had become a project in its own right, and of a size worthy of the Vienna Symphonic Library project.
The Internet makes it possible to combine texts, images and sound in a unique way. So what could be more logical than to present the instruments of the modern-day orchestra, and those which may one day join them, in such a way that their history, appearance and above all their sound can be explored by the user him- or herself? The result, Instruments Online, contains a multitude of topics relating to instruments and music and a wealth of information the like of which has never been seen before. It is aimed at everyone and anyone who is interested in music, be they professional musicians, students, sound technicians, composers, arrangers - in short, anyone who wants to know which sounds can be produced by a particular instrument and how those sounds are produced.
One of our aims is to make Instruments Online interesting for beginners and advanced musicians. To this end more complex topics and concepts will, we hope, be made accessible to everyone via links to a glossary. In this way it will not be necessary for the user to have any specialist knowledge of music or the areas of science covered.
But if you do need any additional explanations, feel free to send us an e-mail to email@example.com we´re happy to answer any queries.
What makes Instruments Online so different from other instrument studies is the inclusion of sounds: explanations, descriptions, range, timbre and playing techniques are backed up by the corresponding sound samples, which makes for a much wider range of experiences and consequently a far greater learning potential for the user, way beyond the possibilities of conventional and "literal" media. It is our intention not only to inform all those interested in music about sound but also to open their ears to the fascinating world of instrumental sounds.
We hope we´ve whetted your appetite!
Your instrumentologists,
Sabine Tucmandl + Stephan Reisigl

Umpires Erasmus, Dar not to be replaced for Ashes despite `bungled` Broad, Trott decisions
London, July 14: Match officials Marais Erasmus and Aleem Dar will not be forced to step down from umpiring the Ashes series despite their bungling of the decisions over England''s Stuart Broad and Jonathan Trott, which overshadowed the Ashes opener.
According to the Daily Express, England made representations to the International Cricket Council (ICC) after Trott was given out LBW on review in England''s first innings by third umpire Erasmus, who contentiously overruled the not out verdict of on-field umpire Dar despite the unavailability of Hot Spot technology.
The report further said that Australia was angered when Dar missed a clear edge from that was caught at slip via a deflection off wicketkeeper Brad Haddin.
However, the ICC has allowed both Erasmus and Dar to continue to officiate the series, despite Broad declining to walk, as the Australians were unable to refer to it, having used up all their reviews. However, the report said that Asad Rauf and Billy Bowden have been demoted from the ICC''s elite umpiring panel, and eight of the 12 top-tier officials are ineligible because they are English or Australian.© ANI

Political chatter from DC and NYC, the amNewYork way
The Boyles talk Edwards
By Meg
The Edwards affair seems to have struck a nerve with a lot of people I know. Ill be honest with you, Politirazzi readership: I couldnt care less about political affairs of the heart unless, of course, the scandal involves outright abuse of power.
I might be interested in reading about an affair where the politician in question and this is just a hypothetical off the top of my head had been shuttling his mistress to and fro the Hamptons via personal NYPD escort, but a good, old-fashioned, toe-tappin-on-the-bathroom-floor-type Washington sex scandal has really never aroused (insert Beavis and/or Butthead laugh here) my curiosity or concern. Hence my complete lack of interest in Johns liaison dangereus.
But maybe Im missing something? The fact of the matter is that no politician Ive ever voted for has been involved in a sex scandal.
Clinton? I was so totally over him by the time Monica hit the news. McGreevy? More like McSkeevy. Spitzer? Hey, karmas a bitch, buddy.
So I thought it necessary to get the perspective of someone who voted for Edwards. Unfortunately, I could only find one: My brother, Kevin, a registered Democrat who voted for Edwards in the N.J. primary in February. (Remember, Edwards dropped out of the race in January. Yeah, stubbornness runs in the family.)
Meg Boyle: Thanks for talking to us today, Kevin.
Kevin Boyle: Thanks for having me, Meg.
MB: So, how stupid do you feel right now?
KB: I dont feel stupid at all. John Edwards is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.
MB: Have you spoken with John? How is he?
(continued) KB: I havent had the pleasure of speaking with him, per se, but I hear that hes in wonderful spirits. Hes constantly in the papers and is being shot from very flattering angles. Whats not to be happy about?
MB: I know you respect John greatly as a politician. Do you now also respect him as a ladies' man?
KB: This scandal is just further evidence of his greatness. Some of our greatest presidents have been ladies men. JFK, Clinton, Michael Douglas in that movie where he gets it on with Annette Benning ... John is in mighty fine company indeed.
MB: Kevin, you voted for John Edwards during the N.J. primary in spite of the fact that he had already dropped out of the race. Do you stand by that vote or do you secretly wish you'd voted for someone else? Hillary, perhaps?
KB: Definitely not! I stand by my vote completely. I still think Edwards would have made the best candidate. Besides, I think we all know what happened the last time a woman tasted the fruit of power, if you catch my meaning
MB: (Groan.) What's your personal opinion of all this hoopla?
KB: John Edwards is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.
KB: Um, I just did.
MB: I know. I wanted to have my Brokaw moment. Sorry. Anyway, what does the future hold for John Edwards?
KB: As I understand it, hell be hosting a DNC fundraiser at Scores on the 16th. After that, who knows? Maybe headquarters? The skys the limit.
MB: Kevin, is there a message you'd like to send John Edwards?
KB: Yes. John, thanks to you Ive seen the power of expensive haircuts. Its a life lesson I will take with me always.
MB: Do you think Edwards should go ahead with the paternity test? I think he should and then announce the results on Maury Povich! Anyone? Anyone?
KB: No, thats a stupid idea.
MB: Kevin, thanks again for your time. Any final thoughts?
KB: John Edwards is the kindest, bravest, warmest, most wonderful human being I've ever known in my life.

What is a brow lift?
Published On: Oct 25 2012 10:57:11 AM EDT

Do you have unwanted wrinkles on your forehead? Those wrinkles can be minimized with a brow lift.
According to the American Society of Plastic Surgeons, a brow lift can reduce creases and wrinkles that occur on the bridge of the nose, creases in your forehead (commonly called frown lines), and reposition a sagging brow.
These improvements are typically made surgically.

There's nothing quite like the first big red carpet event of the season to kick-start your Monday morning and last night's Golden Globes didn't disappoint. The Brits stormed the awards ceremony with Danny Boyle's Slumdog Millionaire picking up a best film gong and Kate Winslet scooping two awards: best supporting actress for The Reader and leading actress for Revolutionary Road. (If you didn't stay up all night then allow yourself a diversion from work right now and check out her weepy, overwhelmed acceptance speech right here). And then of course there were the dresses. From the downright perfect (Eva Mendes in Dior, incidentally the most worn design house of the night) to the dazzling newcomers (Freida Pinto in Christian Lacroix we salute you) to the white-ruffled contingent (Sandra Bullock did us proud in Dior) and the oh-dear-god-did-you-get-dressed-in-the-dark brigade (naming no names, Renee). Check out what we thought of who wore what below and add your own comments to the You, The Fashion Jury Golden Globes special. Make them fashiontastic enough and yours could even end up printed alongside our fashion's teams assessment of the Golden Globes fashion in next Tuesday's issue of Grazia. No pressure, then!
You, The Fashion Jury: Best Dressed from the Golden Globes
Kate Winslet
Kate gets serious style points for this LBD (that's long black dress in red carpet speak) by Yves Saint Laurent.
Jennifer Lopez
Wowser! Jennifer Lopez is back to doing what she does best: showing some serious skin in an incredible Marchesa gown with jewellery by Lorraine Schwartz and Roger Vivier shoes.
Angelina Jolie
We predicted Miss Jolie would opt for a floor length Grecian piece, but although she chose to accessorize her Jimmy Choos with this slashed Atelier Versace number, we're getting a little tired of the nude palette, floor length gowns...
Cameron Diaz
Cameron always looks fabulous in colour! Her Chanel Haute Couture number is bang on trend with the asymmetric one-shouldered cut, but is it too casual for the Globes?
America Ferrera
We totally nailed the prediction as far as the silhouette of America's gown was concerned: and she looks totally hot in this shimmering one-shouldered Oscar de la Renta prom dress.
Amy Adams
Another homerun for Oscar de la Renta with this black beaded showstopper, but forgive us if we're wrong – doesn't this dress so look as if it belongs in Andalasia?
Anne Hathaway
There's no doubt Anne Hathaway sizzles in a shimmering strapless blue gown from the Giorgio Armani Prive collection, but we wish the young star took a few more red carpet risks sometimes.
Elie Saab hits another winner as Beyonce embraces her curves in a heavily jewelled couture dress slashed to the thigh. Work it girl…
Blake Lively
She's certainly channelling Serena in her Nina Ricci number, but for goodness sake, give the girl some breathing room!
Demi Moore
Demi plays it safe in this Dior peach silk chiffon creation, but we're not so sure about all that bling. We wonder if she was taking style tips from 19 year old daughter Rumer…
Drew Barrymore
Hmmm, now we love you Drew, we really do, but we're pretty sure you can do better than this… Yes, your dress might be Dior Haute Couture and custom made by John Galliano, but that's simply no excuse for your 50's bouffant hair. Sort it out please…
Eva Longoria
Great Reem Acra fishtail gown but we're not so sure about the fake bake. Or the spray-on silhouette.
Freida Pinto
We just can't get enough of the Slumdog Millionaire star, and already decided that she was the one to watch before she turned up in this floorlength Christian Lacroix creation.
Eva Mendes
Whoever is dressing Ms Mendes at the moment deserves a big fat pat on the back. While she has been looking wonderful of late on her The Spirit red carpet tour, she looked perfect last night in a white strapless Christian Dior dress, set off with a touch of colour by the beautiful turquoise Van Cleef and Arpels necklace. Ladies of red carpets everywhere...take note.
Kate Beckinsale
It might be typically Kate but then again the Globes are all about old-school glamour... and this figure-hugging J Mendel gown totally works.
Maggie Gyllenhaal
We love love love this woman. There's absolutely nothing in this Lanvin ensemble that we don't like, and we're so into leopard print right now we're thrilled that Maggie was brave enough to pull it off of the red carpet.
Rachel Evan Woods
One of the dresses of the night as far as we're concerned. Evan opts for an Elie Saab dress that showcases her as one of the most exciting new girls on the fashion block this year. We love.
Renee Zellweger
Ouch. Renee's long been a fan of Carolina Herrera's show-stopping pieces, and the dramatic fishtail on this black satin skirt is definitely Golden Globes worthy, but we wish she'd opted for something other than a nude Spanx bodysuit to wear underneath.
Salma Hayek
Woah there. Salma sizzles in this Bottega Veneta piece, but there's rather a lot on show here we think. Mind you, if you've got it, flaunt it…
Sandra Bullock
The lovely Sandra would make us smile in anything! She does love a white frock come award time and this floorlength dress by Dior not only enhances her figure in all the right places, but it also proves us right in our Friday theory that white is THE colour of the Golden Globes.
Sally Hawkins
Another Brit who did us proud last night was Happy-Go-Lucky's Sally Hawkins who picked up Best Actress in a Musical or Comedy. Now we may not recognize the full black dress that the teeny-tiny actress wore, but the jewellery and the up-do were perfect for her small frame.
Marisa Tomei
We love that Marisa will always take a risk on the red carpet and she didn't disappoint last night. While her monochrome Oscar de la Renta dress isn't typical of award dressing, it brought the red-carpet kicking and screaming into 2009 and we thought she look fabulous.

I love to travel and enjoy getting there by the least traveled road. My love of travel and passion for being eco-conscious have found the perfect union at ZenEstate.
I believe living green doesn't have to mean huge sacrifices or lack style. My locations provide comfort, beauty and minimize any negative impacts on the environment. To accomplish this, we provide habitat, we limit certain activities, we provide green furnishings, we carbon offset, we compost, recycle and much more.
The Travel Lightly philosophy means you don't have to pack everything including the kitchen sink and it means we'll support your green habits when you are on the road. We are so pleased to hear from folks that we're doing a great job. Read reviews and guest book comments for all our locations.
Additionally, when you travel, whether you sleep in a tent or the presidential suite, the customer service you receive should be outstanding. So we take extra steps for all our guests. We offer items, you just can't get in most hotels and certainly not for free. For example, we stock doggie treats and make sure every princess has access to a tiara and a tea party set (no matter how old she is).
I hope you love your stay with us at ZenEstate. We're going to work hard to make sure you do

The historic acceptance speech is ready for delivery.But not because Texas A&M quarterback Johnny Manziel believes all the straw polls that suggest he will become the first freshman to claim the Heisman Trophy when the winner is announced tonight in New York.For Manziel, winner of the 2012 Davey O'Brien National Quarterback Award, the point is preparation.Just like the redshirt freshman readied for each opponent while setting a Southeastern Conference record with 4,600 yards of total offense and leading No. 9 A&M (10-2) to a Jan. 4 berth in the AT&T Cotton Bowl Classic at Cowboys Stadium."If you are going to New York, you have to be prepared because you never know what the outcome will be," said Manziel, one of three Heisman finalists in a field that includes two seniors: Notre Dame linebacker Manti Te'o and Kansas State quarterback Collin Klein.No freshman in the award's 77-year history has had to deliver an acceptance speech at the Heisman presentation ceremony.But all signs Friday pointed toward a Manziel victory, with the website StiffArmTrophy.com projecting "Johnny Football" to receive 80.8 percent of available points on Heisman ballots based on feedback from 180 voters.Manziel received 105 first-place votes in that sampling, more than double the total for Te'o (49) or Klein (10).The highest freshman finish in a Heisman race came in 2004, when former Oklahoma running back Adrian Peterson finished second to USC quarterback Matt Leinart, a junior that season.Peterson, in an interview with The Associated Press, made it clear this week that he considers it long overdue for Manziel to break through the glass ceiling that stopped him."Hopefully, they don't rob him like they did me," Peterson said. "I hope he wins."Other players and college football analysts who joined Manziel in Lake Buena Vista, Fla., for Thursday's telecast of The Home Depot College Football Awards agreed that the freshman factor -- a sticking point to some voters in the near-miss Heisman campaigns of Peterson and Georgia running back Herschel Walker (third in 1980) -- should no longer be in play in 2012, four decades after freshmen became eligible to compete for NCAA varsity football teams in 1972."The Heisman is supposed to go to the most outstanding player in all of college football," West Virginia receiver Stedman Bailey said."I think Johnny Manziel is pretty deserving of it. He's a great player. He's a winner. I don't think it should matter if you're a freshman.... If you're the most outstanding player in the country, then that's what you are."Baylor receiver Terrance Williams said: "If you're out there putting up numbers and making plays, then your age or your class shouldn't define who you are. I don't understand why some voters feel that way."Manziel, 20, made it clear that he is prepared for any outcome and understands that "people have their different opinions" about the worthiness of freshman candidates.He also understands the basic premise of college football's top individual honor."It goes to the most outstanding player in college football," Manziel said. "If that happens to be me, then that's something that I'll cherish for the rest of my life. If not, then that's just kind of how the cookie crumbles, I guess."After being made off-limits to media members throughout the regular season by A&M coach Kevin Sumlin, Manziel has weighed in on multiple topics for the past two weeks.Among them: Until blossoming as a football player in high school, Manziel thought he'd have a career in professional baseball.He cited his June 29 arrest in College Station on misdemeanor charges of fighting and presenting fake identification as "a critical mistake in my life" that led to changes in his off-field approach.And he was stunned Thursday night when his Twitter account, @jmanziel2, received follower No. 100,000. By Friday afternoon, the count had reached 108,721.As "Johnny Football" prepares himself for the possibility of making Heisman history tonight, here is a look at Manziel in his own words:On lessons learned from his arrest: "That was ... a critical mistake in my life. The first thing that goes through your mind is just how many people that you've let down. It's something that I look back on as one of the biggest mistakes of my life. And, from there, I've had to make a lot of changes in my life. I'm really more aware of my surroundings ... and more of a homebody."On his sports-related goals as a young athlete: "I always thought since I was a little kid that I would play pro baseball ... I wanted to play for the Rangers. I wanted to play shortstop. Then football came around and took center stage and I kind of ran with it."On his huge Twitter following: "I think the positive feedback you read is awesome, to really hear what people think about me and how I'm their role model and stuff like that makes you feel great. As far as my tweeting, I just try to let people know a little bit more about who I am and what I do throughout the day. I'm just a normal kid like everybody else."On having uncle Harley Hooper, who owns multiple men's clothing stores, help select his suit for tonight's Heisman ceremony: "My uncle is somebody I've looked up to. If I wanted to dress like somebody, I would dress like him every single day. He's one of the best dressers I've been around."On his gift for unscripted big plays: "I never really intend on going out there and just running around and freelancing. It's just an instinct, for me, that takes over. I'd love to sit back there and get the ball out and not have to worry about running around in circles."On inheriting his competitiveness from his father, John Paul Manziel: "My dad still thinks he can beat me in baseball, football, golf, ping pong.... He's a scratch golfer. But I think I can take him in everything else."On fans and media members who label him as a "legend": "I don't know if I'd really consider myself a legend. It's more of a folk tale, I guess, right now."On advice he'd give to young quarterbacks: "If you're going to play football, play it with all your heart. It doesn't matter if you're 5-10 and want to play quarterback. Look at Doug Flutie.... It doesn't matter how big you are or how fast you are. Just play with a lot of heart and leave it on the field every time."On the opportunity to join John David Crow, the 1957 recipient, on A&M's list of Heisman Trophy winners: "It's something that would be one of the best memories of my entire life ... to bring the Heisman Trophy back to Aggieland for all these fans, after all the years of football that it's been since we've had a Heisman Trophy winner. To really bring the excitement and really bring some of the positives back to Aggieland would be something that would be the ultimate goal."Elite company Texas A&M's Johnny Manziel can become the first freshman to win the Heisman and the eighth player from a Texas school:

Non-contest poetry book publishers and the paradigm
So what new model of poetry publishing can be developed, given the cultural marginalization of the art? I've felt for a long time that e-publishing, which is changing the landscape of prose publishing very quickly, will exert a similar transformative effect on po-biz. Perhaps a little more emphasis on biz -- on how to attract audiences and book buyers -- would help.
4 comments:
How about the nanopress model (which includes the e-publishing option)? http://thenanopress.wordpress.comReplyDelete
Nice post, Rachel - the natives are, indeed, restless..
Interesting new model, Nic, thanks for alerting me to it. As usual, you ride the leading edge of the wave. I can always count on you for new ideas! I think the new paradigm will be very exciting and will re-energize poetry. I think we're already seeing it, if we know where to look. I'll look at the nanopress model.ReplyDelete
Hope you don't mind I posted your link up at Anis' article - I think it's a great resource! (And I twittered it last night at the poetparty, too...)ReplyDelete
Rachel, Thanks for opening the discussion. We clearly need some new paths to publication.ReplyDelete
Nic (I tried to leave a comment on your blog but it didn't work), I am encouraged by your nano-press model, but I am not clear how it differs from self-publishing. Surely self-published poets work with editors, too ?

No Bake Pots De Crème
I promised my daughter Pots De Crème* a long time ago. Today, I finally made good that promise because I realised my semi-sweet chocolate chips were expiring soon! Ooops. Heh. Well, she doesn't need to know. ;)
* Pronounced "poh duh KREHM".
Anyway, I searched around for Pots De Crème recipes, and noticed they all involved either raw eggs or baking in a water bath. Hmmmm, not exactly my cuppa. I wanted a chocolate custard that was cooked in a saucepan and then poured into serving glasses of my choice, before getting chilled in the refrigerator. Does this still count as Pots De Crème? Oh, it doesn't matter. I just wanted convenience.
So I googled "no bake pots de creme" and grabbed the first recipe that surfaced from the Net. It turned out to be really easy and fuss-free. In fact, it was quite similar to making Crème Pâtissière. Best of all, there was no baking involved, and within an hour, we could all delve into the creamy centres of these wicked Pots of Cream.
(from heights eats)
- 2 cups heavy cream
- 1 tsp instant espresso powder (or instant coffee)
- 115g semi-sweet or bittersweet chocolate, or a combination
- 6 egg yolks
- 3 tbsp sugar (I halved it because I was using semi-sweet chocolate)
- Dash of salt (preferably sea salt)
Note: I halved the recipe but kept the amount of semi-sweet chocolate as stated (I had to finish up as much chocolate chips as I could, right?) ... and that resulted in a firmer texture. Nonetheless, it was heavenly ... melt-in-the-mouth rich and velvety smooth when eaten.
1. Heat the cream, espresso powder and chocolate in a medium saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally. Meanwhile, beat together the egg yolks, sugar and salt in a medium-large bowl. Set aside.
2. When the cream mixture is almost at a simmer (ie, almost about to boil but not yet boiling), gradually pour it into the bowl with the egg yolks, whisking to combine as you do so. Pour the mixture back into the saucepan and heat, stirring almost constantly, on medium-low until the mixture thickens and coats the back of a spoon (or reaches 175-180 degrees, if you have an instant read thermometer), about five minutes. Do not let the mixture overheat or worse, burn. This is how the chocolate custard looks like when it's cooked:
You should be able to see streaks as you whisk or stir.
3. Leave the custard in the saucepan to cool slightly before pouring into serving ware of your choice, and then place into the fridge for chilling. As soon as the custard firms up, it is ready for eating. If you are in a hurry to serve this, obviously, using smaller cups will hasten the chilling.
4. (Optional) Serve with whipped (flavoured) cream, or a drizzle of light cream, or with chocolate shavings.

I've made something similar before from the "Weekend Baker'' cookbook. It is a cinch to do, yet looks so impressive when you bring it to the table. One taste is all it takes to be hooked. ;)ReplyDelete
Hi Ju, great dessert and I have put off making this for so long. You've now given me the inspiration to try it out soon. Love how your pictures have evolved over the last couple of months and they are now absolutely stunning!ReplyDelete
Thank you everyone. :)ReplyDelete
RV: This is the first time someone commented that my photos are poetic, and it's a huge compliment to me! Thank you.
Trix: I wish. I would love a job as a food stylist. I get to play with props all day. Woot!
Jo: Thanks! I do realise that there is a huge difference in my photos from just a couple of months back. And it's all thanks to my new camera. I wouldn't be able to take shots like these without it.
Hi Ju, Thanks for sharing. This is really a fuss free and yummilious recipe. Superb photography. Love it. Made it yesterday and post it into my blog.ReplyDelete

How to Make Jello
Jello is one of the first foods that a baby can eat. It is one of the favorite desserts that children as well as adults enjoy. Jello is easy to swallow, comes in many flavors and is great when made into a mold and served on a buffet table. Jello is easy to make either alone, or with fruit mixed in it.
- 1 Packet of Jello
- 1 cup of water
- 1/2 cup of sugar
- a wooden spoon
- a glass
We could really use your help!
business operations?
product development?
- Jello is great for soothing a sore throat, or when on a liquid diet.
- Jello comes in many different flavors, mix them for a entirely different change of taste.
- For a change, add fruit cocktail or sliced banana to the bottom of the dessert glasses and pour the hot jello over it.
- Follow the directions on the box for further directions and tips.
- Feed it to babies in a more liquid form by not allowing it to jell completely. Stir it and when slightly set, place in a bowl and give it to the baby.
- Serve topped with whipped cream.
- Buy a jello mold shaped as you prefer, and pour the hot jello mixture, with fruit added into the mold. Allow to set overnight. Great for parties or dinner deserts.
- Jello is not a vegetarian dessert. Gelatin is a protein produced by partial hydrolysis of collagen extracted from the bones, connective tissues, organs, and some intestines of animals.
Things You'll Need
- Box of Jello
- Mixing bowl
- Dessert dishes
- Wooden mixing spoon.

Jo Koy
From filling sold–out clubs across the nation, to appearing weekly as a regular on Chelsea Lately, Jo Koy has come a long way from his modest beginnings at a Las Vegas coffee house. His infectious, explosive energy onstage, insightful jokes, and family–inspired humor crosses all boundaries. In 2007, Variety magazine named Jo Koy one of the "10 Comics to Watch!" Raised in Tacoma, Washington, Jo credits his mother for his comedic and acting talents. Encouraged by his mom, Jo participated in school talent shows and presented impromptu performances for his family and friends. This loving support led to the Las Vegas coffee house, and inspired a move to Los Angeles. In 2005, Jo hit the "opportunity of a lifetime" with a performance on The Tonight Show with Jay Leno. He became one of a select few ever to receive a standing ovation. Since then, he has appeared several times throughout the years. A single father, Jo Koy was inspired by his son and began working on his first Comedy Central special "Don't Make Him Angry," which aired in January 2009. His much–anticipated second Comedy Central special "Lights Out" aired in October 2012, and is now available on DVD. Jo has appeared on various VH1 I Love series, as well as The Joy Behar Show, Jimmy Kimmel Live, Last Call with Carson Daly, and Jamie Foxx: Laffapalooza. He is a regular headlining comedian at the world famous Improv, tours the college circuit nationwide, and performs in comedy clubs both in the U.S., and internationally. A firm believer in service and giving back to the community, Jo is currently working with The Lupus Foundation bringing awareness to this cause. Jo resides in Los Angeles, California. - See more at: http://jokoy.com/bio/#sthash.Qlbvee3F.dpuf

Organizing those photos can be an overwhelming task. Keeping photos organized on a computer can start with having everything arranged chronologically by date. And backing your digital photos up to an external hard drive, or photo-saving service online is good idea. What about printed photos? If you have stacks and stacks of printed photos, here is a project that will help organize those photos with some creativity and focus.
After organizing my scrapbook products recently, I found that it is more productive having my paper and embellishments organized by theme. I decided that organizing my photos this way would give me a group of photos to work on scrapbook projects with. Then when the photos were gone, I could print more from my online gallery.
You can start this project today!
Just take a stack of photos and categorize them. Here is a list of categories or themes you could use. You will also have some of your own categories to add to this list:
Holidays and Traditions
And the list goes on!
Using the clear 4x6 boxes, you can label each box with what pictures can be found inside. Use your fun, paper crafting skills to make the photo holders creative or coordinate with your craft room.
These boxes are easily portable and can be taken to a crop or gathering of friends. Taking your printed photos out of their ordinary stacks and rearranging them in a way you will begin to use them again is a great start for getting your photos out and scrapbooking them!
