My boy of fall!!
Today was Isaiah's 1st flag football game! We had a little bit of a late start but we made it. He was excited to play and once the game started he was really into it. His pants were too big so we made a stop ofter the game to get the extra smalls for next week! Zachary is an assistant coach and he is so proud.

1st day of school!
Today was the boys first day of school. Well, not Noah's and he was not happy about this at all! Zachary started 5th grade today! Where does the time go? He was not really feeling pictures this morning so I only got one from him! I think he was a little nervous.
Isaiah on the other hand was more than ready to go! He wanted to ride the bus this morning and didn't want me taking him at all. This mom was not going to do that so I drove him to school where he promptly told me to let him out at car pool?! I didn't and parked and then he ran into school as fast as he could. They couldn't be more different! He did let me take a few pictures of his first day! He was so proud and it made me proud too.

It's baseball time again
When we found out we were moving out here we wanted to get the boys involved pretty quickly. That way they could make new friends and get into a routine and back to some sort of normal again! Z is a baseball loving kid. He has played since he was 3 and hasn't missed a season yet. We signed him up for Fall baseball here in IN and he is now a Blue Jay! He has his first game on Sunday and they won 17-4!

Happy 5th Birthday Cesar Isaiah Sanchez
Wow! Where does the time go? It seems like yesterday that I found out I was pregnant again after 4 years and a lot of heartache. I was so ready to be a mommy again! All my life I wanted to be a mommy. A mommy to a lot of babies! Little did I know what this little baby would bring!
To say his daddy was overwhelmed would have been an understatement! He was blown away by this little baby who would have his name. Cesar Isaiah Sanchez arrived quickly and pretty easily. That was the last thing that has been easy with this boy!
Today my 5 year old boy will be starting Kindergarten on Wednesday and is a ball full of energy! I am beyond proud to be his mommy, even on the rough days! He know only one speed, fast, and does everything this way. He loves his brothers, most of the time, and play so rough it's sometimes scary for this mommy! He is super smart and super loving when he is happy but his mood can change in a heartbeat if you are not careful!! He keeps me on my toes and I love every minute of being his mommy.

I never knew I was a CA girl
Who knew that when I moved across the country 4 years ago with two boys and one on the way that I would become a CA girl. As an Army wife I knew that we would be moving a lot, to a lot of places. Some I would want to go to and some I would not. In my head I knew this, it was my heart that would have a hard time understanding. I was born and raised in KY. I lived there for almost 30 years of my life, in a small town, a real small town. I loved every minute of it. I loved going to the grocery and running into people that I knew. I loved that almost everyone had a story about my Granddaddy. I graduated from the only high school in town and still run into a lot of the people I graduated with when I return for a visit. I would have NEVER in my wildest dreams thought that west coast living would be where my heart longed to be.
When I met my husband one of the first things he told me was that he was moving back to California as soon as possible, well that and he was deploying to Iraq soon, he was pretty much telling me this would never work. In the back of my head my stubbornness was thinking that I would change his mind and he would LOVE KY! We moved to CA back in 2007 and I hated every minute of it. We were only there like 4 months and the Army saw fit to move us back to Ft. Knox, I was super happy to be back "home". I think I had a lot of growing up to do then. I had never really moved that far away from my family and I was lonely. It was summer so I really didn't have the chance to meet anyone and I didn't make any friends. We moved back, Isaiah came, and we did ok.
In 2009 when the opportunity came to move AGAIN to CA through the Army we decided to try it. Cesar had never really had the chance to live close to his family and I just thought it was his "turn" so to speak. Once again we packed up and moved across the country, this time with 2 boys and Noah on the way in less than a month! This time was a whole lot different. Zachary started school when we got there and I got involved in the PTA and met some really great friends! We had a great house that fit our family perfectly and it was right around the corner from my in laws. I totally fell in love with SoCal! I felt right at home there. I still missed my family. My sister and the kids were always on my mind. It was hard having Noah in CA and none of my family being able to see him until he was almost 3 months old. Z loved his school and he met some great friends so the transition wasn't as hard this time. We got involved in baseball so that kept us pretty busy too.
SoCal got in my blood! The weather is to die for and there is so much to do so close. Who in their right mind wouldn't want to live 45 mins from Disneyworld!!!! This was the icing on the cake for this Disney lover!
More importantly than the attractions were the friends I met. They totally took me in, this girl from KY, and welcomed me into their group. Who knew there would be a mom there who would have boys just as wild as mine and would love them anyway!?
We made a lot of memories in the past 4 years. Our boys became the best of friends doing everything together. I gained a whole new Mexican family. This white girl fit in just fine too! I mean I am even a Nina now to the worlds most cutest newborn little boy!
Not to mention my wonderful sister in law I have in CA. Us white girls have to stick together in this crazy Mexican family we married into! I love every minute of it, most of the time :). It's nice to have someone to talk to that just gets it. She loves country music, she loves cowboy boots, and she gets my husband. Could it get any better?! The other nice thing, she lets me dress her daughter. I am so girly and in this house full of baseball uniforms and dirt I don't always get to buy to much pink! Kayden is my CA princess and she usually lets Sissa put bows in her hair and buy cute girly clothes. For a little bit longer anyway!
Then comes the call that we have all been dreading....we are moving again?!!? WHAT?! It seems like I just got all the pictures hung up and things just so in my house and they are coming to pack it up?! You have got to be kidding me?!
Yes, with a promotion comes a move. While I am super proud of my MSG hubby I hate what comes along with it.
So off to Indianapolis it is with all 3 boys and a new adventure. We are sad to leave CA and we are already missing our friends and family we are looking forward to the time that we get back home once again. The up side to this move, I am only 3 hours away from my KY family and my wonderful nephews and my KY princess!! So I will embrace this next 2 years and count the time until we get back to where my heart belongs, CA!

Isaiah plays flag football
Well this post was supposed to include Z's first baseball practice, however, due to circumstances beyond, WAY BEYOND, my control that post will have to wait until next Sunday!
We are a sports loving family as many of you know so when we first learned where we were moving Cesar and I started looking at the sports programs in the area. We found fall baseball for Z but not for Isaiah. Well, I knew he wouldn't want to be left out so we decided to sign him up for flag football. We lucked out on the coach, he happens to be my Aunt's future husband. Coach Barry is great, he even comes and picks Isaiah up for practice and made Z an assistant coach! Isaiah loves it and we are looking forward to cheering on the Bulldogs and my own boy of fall on Saturdays soon!

The Indiana State Fair and the NF walk to support Joe!
Last night my cousin Katie and I loaded up 5 boys and meet Grammy and Barry at the fair. It was bracelet day and we were determined to get our moneys worth out of those bracelets! Wow! It almost put me in the poor house to take the 3 kids to the fair for the night. It wasn't crowded at all and the boys had a great time riding rides and eating junk, I mean that's what the fair is for right?! We didn't get home until almost 11 and they were wore out for sure!
sharing nachos
riding the roller coaster
Noah knows no fear
Noah was trying to pull Barry in the wagon
He would have rode the Tilt-A-Whirl all night
The next morning we all woke up early to support the NF walk here in Indy. NF is a cause dear to our heart because of my wonderful friend Sarah and her oldest son and Z's best friend in the whole world Joe. We try to attend the NF walk with Team Joe-Joe in CA and this year we happend to start our own team, Team Joe-Joe East Coast to support them even when we are far away! Noah was not having any photos this morning, he really didn't even want to wake up,so that is why he is missing!
Next up Isaiah's first flag football practice and Z's first baseball practice!

An Elkhart woman was airlifted to a Fort Wayne hospital after a head-on collision late Friday afternoon in Elkhart County.
Another woman is also in the hospital tonight.
Police say the accident happened just after four o'clock at County Road 50 and State Road 15 in New Paris.
36-year-old Stacey Adams was driving south on 15 when she crossed the center line to swerve out of the way of another vehicle at the intersection.
She hit a car driven by 58-year-old Amanda Graber of Goshen who broke her right hand and ankle. Graber was transported by ambulance to the hospital; Adams was airlifted from the scene.
The accident remains under investigation.

In June 2014 MiniClick published 5 photo publications including 'I Dare the Wave, A Life to Save' which showcases a collection of photographs by me based around one of the more eccentric members of Brighton swimming club: Dave Sawyers. Originally they just wanted to publish a set of pictures of Brighton Swimming Club. The Club is the oldest swimming club in the world with continuous membership and which I've been documenting since 2003. Early during their edit MiniClick realised that there was such a wealth of images that it was going to be tricky to edit it down so they decided to focus on one club member in particular.
You can purchase a copy of I Dare the Wave, A Life to Save here in MiniClicks online shop, you can also watch a video of me talking about the project below.

This Refcard presents a basic blueprint for deploying Apache Hadoop HDFS and MapReduce in development and production environments. Check out Refcard #117, Getting Started with Apache Hadoop, for basic terminology and for an overview of the tools available in the Hadoop Project.
Apache Hadoop is a scalable framework for implementing reliable and scalable computational networks. This Refcard presents how to deploy and use development and production computational networks. HDFS, MapReduce, and Pig are the foundational tools for developing Hadoop applications.
There are two basic Hadoop distributions:
The decision of using one or the other distributions depends on the organization's desired objective.
Cloudera offers professional services and puts out an enterprise distribution of Apache Hadoop. Their toolset complements Apache's. Documentation about Cloudera's CDH is available from http://docs.cloudera.com.
The Apache Hadoop distribution assumes that the person installing it is comfortable with configuring a system manually. CDH, on the other hand, is designed as a drop-in component for all major Linux distributions.
Linux is the supported platform for production systems. Windows is adequate but is not supported as a development platform.
Every system in a Hadoop deployment must provide SSH access for data exchange between nodes. Log in to the node as the Hadoop user and run the commands in Listing 1 to validate or create the required SSH configuration.
|Listing 1 - Hadoop SSH Prerequisits
The public key for this example is left blank. If this were to run on a public network it could be a security hole. Distribute the public key from the master node to all other nodes for data exchange. All nodes are assumed to run in a secure network behind the firewall.
All the bash shell commands in this Refcard are available for cutting and pasting from: http://ciurana.eu/DeployingHadoopDZone
Cloudera simplified the installation process by offering packages for Ubuntu Server and Red Hat Linux distributions.
CDH packages have names like CDH2, CDH3, and so on, corresponding to the CDH version. The examples here use CDH3. Use the appropriate version for your installation.
Execute these commands as root or via sudo to add the Cloudera repositories:
|Listing 2 - Ubuntu Pre-Install Setup
Run these commands as root or through sudo to add the yum Cloudera repository:
|Listing 3 - Red Hat Pre-Install Setup
Ensure that all the pre-required software and configuration are installed on every machine intended to be a Hadoop node. Don't mix and match operating systems, distributions, Hadoop, or Java versions!
If you have an OS X or a Windows development workstation, consider using a Linux distribution hosted on VirtualBox for running Hadoop. It will help prevent support or compatibility headaches.
This Refcard is a reference for development and production deployment of the components shown in Figure 1. It includes the components available in the basic Hadoop distribution and the enhancements that Cloudera released.
Whether the user intends to run Hadoop in non-distributed or distributed modes, it's best to install every required component in every machine in the computational network. Any computer may assume any role thereafter.
A non-trivial, basic Hadoop installation includes at least these components:
Enterprise users often chose CDH because of:
The steps in this section must be repeated for every node in a Hadoop cluster. Downloads, installation, and configuration
could be automated with shell scripts. All these steps are performed as the service user hadoop, defined in the
prerequisites section.
http://hadoop.apache.org/common/releases.html has the latest version of the common tools. This guide used version 0.20.2.
|Listing 4 - Set the Hadoop Runtime Environment
Pseudo-distributed operation (each daemon runs in a separate Java process) requires updates to core-site.xml, hdfs-site.xml, and the mapred-site.xml. These files configure the master, the file system, and the MapReduce framework and live in the runtime/conf directory.
|Listing 5 - Pseudo-Distributed Operation Config
These files are documented in the Apache Hadoop Clustering reference, http://is.gd/E32L4s — some parameters are discussed in this Refcard's production deployment section.
Hadoop requires a formatted HDFS cluster to do its work:
hadoop namenode -format
The HDFS volume lives on top of the standard file system. The format command will show this upon successful completion:
/tmp/dfs/name has been successfully formatted.
Start the Hadoop processes and perform these operations to validate the installation:
|Listing 6 - Testing the Hadoop Installation
You may ignore any warnings or errors about a missing slaves file.
|Listing 7 - Job Completion and Daemon Termination
That's it! Apache Hadoop is installed in your system and ready for development.
CDH removes a lot of grueling work from the Hadoop installation process by offering ready-to-go packages for mainstream Linux server distributions. Compare the instructions in Listing 8 against the previous section. CDH simplifies installation and configuration for huge time savings.
|Listing 8 - Installing CDH
Leveraging some or all of the extra components in Hadoop or CDH is another good reason for using it over the Apache version. Install Flume or Pig with the instructions in Listing 9.
|Listing 9 - Adding Optional Components
The CDH daemons are ready to be executed as services. There is no need to create a service account for executing them. They can be started or stopped as any other Linux service, as shown in Listing 10.
|Listing 10 - Starting the CDH Daemons
CDH will create an HDFS partition when its daemons start. It's another convenience it offers over regular Hadoop. Listing 11 shows how to validate the installation by:
|Listing 11 - Testing the CDH Installation
The daemons will continue to run until the server stops. All the Hadoop services are available.
Use a browser to check the NameNode or the JobTracker state through their web UI and web services interfaces. All daemons expose their data over HTTP. The users can chose to monitor a node or daemon interactively using the web UI, like in Figure 2. Developers, monitoring tools, and system administrators can use the same ports for tracking the system performance and state using web service calls.
The web interface can be used for monitoring the JobTracker, which dispatches tasks to specific nodes in a cluster, the DataNodes, or the NameNode, which manages directory namespaces and file nodes in the file system.
Use the information in Table 1 for configuring a development workstation or production server firewall.
|Secondary NameNode
|Backup Node
The Hadoop daemons also expose internal data over a RESTful interface. Automated monitoring tools like Nagios, Splunk, or SOBA can use them. Listing 12 shows how to fetch a daemon's metrics as a JSON document:
|Listing 12 - Fetching Daemon Metrics
All the daemons expose these useful resource paths:
Each daemon type also exposes one or more resource paths specific to its operation. A comprehensive list is available from: http://is.gd/MBN4qz
The fastest way to deploy a Hadoop cluster is by using the prepackaged tools in CDH. They include all the same software as the Apache Hadoop distribution but are optimized to run in production servers and with tools familiar to system administrators.
Detailed guides that complement this Refcard are available from Cloudera at http://is.gd/RBWuxm and from Apache at http://is.gd/ckUpu1.
The deployment diagram in Figure 3 describes all the participating nodes in a computational network. The basic procedure for deploying a Hadoop cluster is:
The Apache Hadoop documentation shows this as a rather involved process. The value-added in CDH is that most of that work is already in place. Role-based configuration is very easy to accomplish. The rest of this Refcard will be based on CDH.
Each server role will be determined by its configuration, since they will all have the same software installed. CDH supports the Ubuntu and Red Hat mechanism for handling alternative configurations.
Check the main page to learn more about alternatives. Ubuntu: man update-alternatives Red Hat: man alternatives
The Linux alternatives mechanism ensures that all files associated with a specific package are selected as a system default. This customization is where all the extra work went into CDH. The CDH installation uses alternatives to set the effective CDH configuration.
Listing 13 takes a basic Hadoop configuration and sets it up for production.
|Listing 13 - Set the Production Configuration
The server will restart all the Hadoop daemons using the new production configuration.
Pick a node from the cluster to act as the NameNode (see Figure 3). All Hadoop activity depends on having a valid R/W file system. Format the distributed file system from the NameNode, using user hdfs:
|Listing 14 - Create a New File System
|sudo -u hdfs hadoop namenode -format
Stop all the nodes to complete the file system, permissions, and ownership configuration. Optionally, set daemons for automatic startup using rc.d.
|Listing 15 - Stop All Daemons
Every node in the cluster must be configured with appropriate directory ownership and permissions. Execute the commands in Listing 16 in every node:
|Listing 16 - File System Setup
CDH daemons are defined in /etc/init.d — they can be configured to start along with the operating system or they can be started manually. Execute the command appropriate for each node type using this example:
|Listing 17 - Starting a Node Example
Use jobtracker, datanode, tasktracker, etc. corresponding to the node you want to start or stop.
Refer to the Linux distribution's documentation for information on how to start the /etc/init.d daemons with the chkconfig tool.
|Listing 18 - Set the MapReduce Directory Up
|Listing 19 - Minimal HDFS Config Update

If I had to choose a theme for 2012, I'd predict "integration and unification." Some vendors and utilities are trying to unify network management via NOCs (network operating centers). Others want to unify distribution operations with expanded distribution management systems (DMS). And now a few firms are striving to unify customer-facing programs such as advanced metering, demand-response and EV charging.
I recently joined the advisory board of a firm devoted to the latter concept. Once I had a look under the hood, I was so intrigued that I asked SGN News Editor Doug Peeples to take a look and report on what he found. You can read his story as a description of one company's solution. But between the lines is a story about an important theme. Whether you work with Calico, one of its competitors, or you build it yourself, you should be searching for ways to integrate and unify operations. The "swivel-chair interface" just isn't good enough anymore. – Jesse Berst
By Doug Peeples
SGN News Editor
While it may sound a little too good to be true, that's a taste of what Bellevue, Washington-based Calico Energy Services says it can deliver with its Unified Operations Center. The company says its platform, the Energy Intelligence Suite (EIS), offers utilities ways to streamline operations, cut costs and find new revenue streams by providing a centralized control center that brings together all that data as well as devices, software engines and applications.
Tom Doggett, chief marketing officer for Calico Energy, took a little time out from the Smart Energy International conference in San Francisco last week to lay out what the Unified Operations Center can do. "What brought us to where we are is the convergence of all the issues and drivers for utilities to dynamically control energy use. Fundamentally, you've got access to all the data for better decision making."
What's in it for me?
The OpCenter, as it's also described, gives utilities an out from siloed, rigid programs that take a "linear" approach in that they can do one thing and that's it. Here's a sampler of what the EIS platform can provide for utilities:
· Insight: Improved decision making, load management and pricing strategies by pulling the utility ecosystem together and providing advanced analytics and forecasting in a variety of areas. And EIS Insight, a new module in EIS, offers a configurable dashboard for comparisons between diverse data sets and along with other functions.
· Control: A centralized control console for utilities to develop, test, implement and fine-tune load management programs.
· Flexibility: The ability to develop program strategies for operational needs, business goals and regulatory requirements – now and in the future.
· Impact: Solutions to improve customers' experience and lower costs with enhanced grid stability, event automation and effective energy management programs.
"Calico started as a professional integrator in utilities – and decided there was a need for something that was device agnostic – a service-oriented architecture that can connect more efficiently than a wired connection." The evolutionary process that governs how the EIS and OpCenter work, he explained, goes like this: Start with disconnected energy management, then move on to targeted energy management through data aggregation and enterprise-wide analytics to hit the sweet spot: dynamic energy management.

Wofford drops home game against Samford
Updated On: Oct 26 2013 09:53:15 PM EDT
Andy Summerlin shook off an early game interception that was returned for a score, and passed for 259 yards and a pair of touchdowns as Samford edged Wofford 34-27 in a meeting of Southern Conference unbeatens on Saturday.
Summerlin was intercepted three times, first by Alvin Scioneaux, who returned it 33 yards for an early 7-0 Wofford lead. But Jeremiaha Gates and Summerlin each threw TD passes to Chris Cephus as Samford (6-2, 4-0 Southern) surged ahead 14-7 by the end of the opening period.
Wofford (5-3, 4-1) fell behind by as many as 11, but rallied into a 24-24 tie when Ty Gregory scooped up teammate Donovan Johnson's fumble at the 2 and punched it in.
Samford scored twice more - a 38-yard field goal by Warren Handrahan and Summerlin's second TD pass, a 26-yarder to Jauan Davis.
A 30-yard field goal by Kasey Redfern pulled Wofford within 34-27.

CRIDERSVILLE ÔÇö Resident safety and property concerns were brought to Cridersville Village Council membersÔÇÖ attention on Monday.
Cridersville Police Chief John Drake requested Cridersville Village Council members schedule a Safety and Street Committee meeting to discuss a concern regarding the semi-trucks driving down Carlisle Street to the lumber yard.
The issue was brought to his attention by Cridersville resident Donna Brossman, who said the trucks have been speeding and causing property damage. She brought photographs to councilorsÔÇÖ attention of the damage the trucks have been inflicting near her house.┬á
ÔÇťThey cut up my yard, they run through the stop sign, they go over the sidewalk ÔÇö it cost the city a lot of money to put that sidewalk in,ÔÇŁ Brossman said.┬á
Her concern was not only for the property, but her safety as well.
ÔÇťSome day they are going to roll,ÔÇŁ Brossman said. ÔÇťI just hope they donÔÇÖt run down my house.ÔÇŁ
Safety and Street Committee members scheduled a meeting for 7 p.m., Oct. 24 to discuss further action.
While discussing traffic concerns, Mayor Lorali Myers said she has seen an excessive amount of speeding vehicles entering Cridersville on Reicheldefer Road. She recalled one vehicle she estimated was traveling 50 mph coming up to the stop sign. The street is posted 25 mph.
ÔÇťI donÔÇÖt want the blood on my hands because we didnÔÇÖt stop this,ÔÇŁ Myers said. ÔÇťWe need to slow the traffic down on Reicheldefer Road.ÔÇŁ
Councilors and Drake discussed the possibility of keeping police cruisers on the road to keep an eye on reckless motorists.
ÔÇťI hope council supports me on this,ÔÇŁ Myers said. ÔÇťWe want whatÔÇÖs best for our community.ÔÇŁ

I met Nutritional Health Coach Madeleine Shaw a couple of months ago at an SBC workshop and after mopping the sweat from my brow I told her that I was curious about going paleo. The food philosophy, which has been getting a lot of attention lately from bloggers and the media owing in part to its popularity among A-list fitness fans such as Miley Cyrus to Megan Fox advocates ingredients that our Stone Age ancestors would have eaten 8,000 years ago. In a nutshell paleo means ditching processed foods, refined sugar and basically anything that we know is not good for us and instead enjoying natural ingredients, including meat, fish, nuts, seeds, berries and green vegetables.
Luckily for me (and anyone interested in finding out more), Madeleine has just launched a 5-day programme with EatEvolve, the UK's first pre-made paleo meal delivery company. EatEvolve are not big on the word 'diet', like Madeleine they see paleo as a lifestyle rather than a quick fix and like all lifestyle changes switching to paleo does involve a certain level of commitment. The meals in Shaw's Get The Glow programme are all wheat free, dairy free and gluten free and EatEvolve swear by the principle 'No sugar, no grains, no nasties'. This doesn't mean giving up fat altogether - there are plenty of quality omega 6 fats on the menu - but saying goodbye to sugar and snacking is essential.
Here are 5 other things I discovered when I embarked on Madeleine's Get The Glow program with EatEvolve...
1. It's the perfect way for a newbie paleo to get a (literal) taste of what it's like to eat clean... Meals are delivered in vacuum pouches, which can be stored for up to 7 days or frozen and ensure nutritional integrity remains intact. A welcome pack is provided highlighting the mains and recommended sides, but it's easy to mix and match depending on your schedule and tastes. If you've never gone paleo before and aren't sure what to expect, the cleanse gives you the opportunity to dive in without having to check labels and learn a new repertoire of dishes. Having said that the experience really inspired me to experiment with my own paleo dishes once I'd completed the program.
2. It's VERY filling... Traditionally my meals have been based around brown rice, quinoa and potatoes and although I eat plenty of vegetables and fruit too, I wasn't convinced that I would feel full if I cut the carbs. This is definitely not something you have to worry about with Get The Glow. All the meals are made up of two pouches (a main meal and side dish) and everyone who saw one of my plates during the cleanse was amazed at just how much food I was consuming. That's not to say that you'll be overeating - all the meals range between 450-600 calories per meal, but the recipes are nutrient dense and made with free range/ grass fed meat and organic seasonal vegetables.
3. It's not all about the food... During the cleanse, as well as saying no to sugar and snacking, Madeleine suggests certain lifestyle adjustments in order to get the most out of the experience. The main thing that I struggled with was saying no to my morning latte, as the only liquids recommended are fresh water, coconut water and herbal teas. It's also suggested that you sleep between 10pm and 6am, as these are the best times for optimum detoxification so that rules out that post work glass of wine. What you may feel you're lacking in sugar and caffeine can be made up for with pampering: long baths, yoga, meditation and making time for yourself are all cleansing essentials.
4. It's great for the gut... One of the main focuses of the program is healing the gut, as Madeleine explains, 'it is where we absorb all the food. If we don't have a good digestive system then you won't be absorbing all the goodies we put in our bodies.' As well as starting the day with warm water and lemon to get the digestive juices moving, probiotics are provided in the pack to heal the inner eco system and beat the bloat.
5. It's seriously tasty... With dishes including Red Thai Curry, Chinese Pork and Rhubarb Crumble, this is not your average cleanse. Get The Glow is all about eating in a way that you can sustain once you've completed the program and re-educating the body and mind to enjoy natural ingredients rather than reaching for packaged products every time you're hungry. I was also left with increased energy and an enhanced appreciation of quality food.
Get The Glow starts at only £25 per day. Visit eatevolve.com and madeleineshaw.com for more.

text: Sec. Sebelius: 'We're About To Make Some History' Print article Send a Tip by Wynton Hall 30 Sep 2013 post a comment With just hours to go until the government's Obamacare healthcare exchanges go live nationwide, Health and Human Services (HHS) Secretary Kathleen Sebelius said on Monday that Obamacare's grand opening will be a historic success, "shutdown or no shutdown." "We're about to make some history," said Sebelius. "I think some very positive history for lots of families." Obamacare call centers and so-called "navigators"--those tasked with helping get people enrolled in Obamacare--will not be affected in the event of a looming government shutdown, said Sebelius. The HHS Secretary conceded that Obamacare's grand opening is "likely to have some glitches" for the 36 exchanges under HHS's control but reassured citizens that HHS "will fix them and move on." Sebelius added: "Oct. 1 is not the end of anything; it is the beginning."

The recent political chatter about "Obamacare" before the Supreme Court of the United States got a great deal of media attention. President Obama added fuel to the fire when he declared, "Ultimately, I am confident the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically elected Congress."
For someone who was a law professor those words were absurd. Even if a bill passed unanimously in the house and senate, it could still be overturned – if the law was in violation of the Constitution.
Nelson Rockefeller's nomination for Governor in 1958 was partly an upstate revolt against the continued domination of party affairs by the Nassau Republican organization. Rockefeller was a man who always had bigger fish to fry, and throughout his almost 15 years as governor, he often went out of his way not to step on the toes of the touchy Nassau GOP. That's why Nassau is the only large New York county without a state office building. Respect the turf.
Just before taking office, Rockefeller announced that State Senator William Hults would be Commissioner of Motor Vehicles, but not until the end of the 1959 legislative session, so that Glen Cove, North Hempstead, Oyster Bay and a sliver of Hempstead wouldn't lose their Senate representation until 1960.
The Nassau County district attorney's (DA) office makes a cameo appearance in Empty Mansions, an incredible book about Huguette Clark (1906-2011), the Manhattan-raised heiress whose generosity and eccentricities were legendary.
Now that Ryan Murphy, a creator of television's "Glee," has optioned Empty Mansions' film rights, I imagine a scrum of top actresses are vying to play Clark.
Written by Mike Barry, firstname.lastname@example.com Thursday, 28 November 2013 00:00
The just-released Long Island Railroad Massacre is a compelling documentary about one of the most notorious crimes in Nassau's history, and a must-see if you lived here in the early 1990s.
Charles Minn, its director, will screen the film on Saturday, Dec. 7, at 2 p.m., at the Cinema Arts Theatre in Huntington, and preside over a question-and-answer session afterwards. The date has significance. Twenty years earlier, on Dec. 7, 1993, six commuters were killed and 19 other people were wounded by a gun-wielding Colin Ferguson while traveling eastbound on the LIRR between the New Hyde Park and Merillon Avenue stations. Investigation Discovery (ID), a cable channel, is airing the film as Terror on a Train on Wednesday, Dec. 4 at 10 p.m. ID is carried on Cablevision's Channel 171 and FiOS's Channel 123.
I saw the documentary at a Manhattan theater this month, and didn't know until afterwards that two of the LIRR commuters wounded by Ferguson, and interviewed for the film, were seated behind me: Robert Giugliano and John Forni. Giugliano provides a few of Long Island Railroad Massacre's most riveting scenes, describing the last moments of a passenger seated near him on the ill-fated 5:33 p.m. train to Hicksville from Penn Station, and disclosing how it took him years to recover emotionally from Ferguson's rampage. Meanwhile, Forni, in a surprisingly calm manner, explains what it is like to get shot multiple times and live to tell the tale.
Other testimonials stay with you. Arlene and Jacob Locicero, the parents of the late Amy Locicero Federici, talk movingly about how they donated their 27-year-old daughter's vital organs when it became clear she would not survive. The Lociceros have over the past two decades been activists in the field of organ donation, counseling families who have just lost loved ones. Mi-Won Kim, the sister of the late Mi Kyung Kim, a 27-year-old who was murdered on that same train, bears additional witness to the pain Ferguson inflicted on dozens of families, as do Joyce and Karen Gorycki, the widow and daughter, respectively, of the late James Gorycki. He was 51 at the time of his death. Neither the family of 30-year-old Maria Magtoto nor that of 24-year-old Richard Nettleton, two of the six people who died in the LIRR massacre, could be reached by the filmmakers.
Rep. Carolyn McCarthy (D-Mineola), widow of the then-52-year-old Dennis McCarthy, another Ferguson victim, is the name most long-time Nassau residents associate with the tragedy. She is featured prominently in the documentary, recounting what life was like for her, her husband and their son, Kevin, who was severely injured that night by a gunshot wound to the head, before Dec. 7, 1993. Rep. McCarthy's views on gun control sound the same today as they did during her first successful run for Congress in 1996. If you want to hear something new, listen closely when Kevin McCarthy talks about the grandchildren his father never lived to meet.
The law-and-order-related interviews offer valuable insights, as well, and complement the archival footage of Ferguson's 1995 trial in Mineola, where he served as his own attorney. Ronald Kuby, Ferguson's counsel at one point, was interviewed and offers vivid anecdotes about the judicial proceedings. So, too, does then-Nassau County assistant district attorney George Peck, who prosecuted Ferguson and is today a judge.
Brian Parpan, a retired Nassau County homicide detective, gives details about the gruesome crime scene, and what he saw that night was something he'll always remember, Parpan told Minn. Parpan also notes he was the only witness called by Ferguson at the trial. Given that Parpan was not on the train that night, and could not vouch for Ferguson's alibi — that an unknown white man had reached into Ferguson's bag, stole his gun, and started shooting everyone — it was a futile gesture, if the goal was to prove Ferguson's innocence.
Ferguson is in an upstate prison and won't be eligible for parole until after 2300. That's not a typographical error; his first parole hearing is set for nearly two centuries from now.
Long Island Railroad Massacre affirms that, while Ferguson's victims are missed and remembered fondly, the person convicted of killing them has been largely forgotten. More on the film is at www.lirrmassacre.com

I spent the morning at a photo shoot for a fabulous story we'll be bringing you in an upcoming issue. I don't want to give away any details on that one because it's going to be a great surprise. But the shoot was in such a gorgeous setting—a 17th century home on the North Shore of Boston—that I had to snap some photos to share with you the lilacs in full bloom, the nest of baby robins, and fields in that tender green of the early season. Enjoy!

DEFINITION of 'Held To Maturity Security'
Accounting standards necessitate that companies classify any investments in debt or equity securities when they are purchased. The investments can be classified as held to maturity, held for trading or available for sale. A held to maturity security is a debt or equity security that is purchased with the intention of holding the investment to maturity. This type of security is reported at amortized cost on a company's financial statements and is usually in the form of a debt security with a specific maturity date.
INVESTOPEDIA EXPLAINS 'Held To Maturity Security'
Unlike held for trading securities, temporary price changes are not shown in accounting statements for held to maturity securities. Since stocks do not have a maturity date, they cannot be classified as held to maturity securities. The interest income received from a held to maturity security is run through the income statement, however the gains and losses go through comprehensive income until it is realized.

And judging by these numbers and the love for the film, it doesn't look like 'Frozen' is going to "Let It Go" so easily.

Terry Gilliam's The Zero Theorem
By Stephanie Zacharek
As if written by a robot whose frame of reference wasnt human reality but merely fairy-tale romantic comedies, Love, Wedding, Marriage strips genre tropes down to their scrawny, brittle bones. Inspired to become a marriage counselor by her mom (Jane Seymour) and dads (James Brolin) bedrock fidelity, Eva (Mandy Moore) alienates new spouse Charlie (Kellan Lutz) when she discovers that her parents are on the verge of divorceright before their 30th anniversary party!and zealously dedicates herself to saving their union. Complicated by inconsequential bit players, her mission is marked by endless contrivances, none more tone-deaf than Brolins sudden Orthodox Jewish piousness, which has him spout kvetching and meshuggeneh as if the Yiddish words were punchlines themselves. Actor-turned-director Dermot Mulroney engages in a Guinness World Recordcourting number of bland shot-reverse shot sequences, though his films ungainly visuals are no flatter than dramedic scenarios involving Brolin drunkenly stomping on a fish, Seymour suffering through awful speed-dating sessions, and multiple revelations about secret affairs, nuptials, and children that elicit wide-eyed exasperation from a monotonous Moore. Comprised only of half-hearted melodramatics and schmaltzy bromides, the film offers nothing new but plenty of things that are old, borrowed, and apt to make one blue.

Rand Paul: Obama is trampling civil libertiesMarch 7, 2014 @ 12:51 pm (Updated: 1:00 pm - 3/7/14 )
OXON HILL, Md. (AP) — Kentucky Sen. Rand Paul says President Barack Obama is running roughshod over Americans' civil liberties.
Paul on Friday told an annual gathering of conservative leaders and activists that Obama had violated the Constitution by backing drone strikes on American citizens and the collection of millions of Americans' telephone records in a secret surveillance program.
Paul quoted the Founding fathers as well as Pink Floyd. He urged conservatives to join his efforts to stop what he deemed unconstitutional measures.
In his words: "Government unrestrained by law becomes nothing short of tyranny."
The Kentucky senator was an afternoon speaker Friday at the annual Conservative Political Action Conference in suburban Maryland. He is among several prospective presidential candidates at the three-day conference and attracted the largest crowd so far.

best fish & chips
- g
- girlwonder Jan 22, 2008 05:53 PM
Where oh where can they be?
Think fish keg in Chicago.....
I am looking for breaded not battered
Thanks all!
re: Bob Brooks
are these places breaded or battered?
re: girlwonder
Ye Olde King's Head is battered and it's good (if a little thick on the batter) and the chips are great.
Here is a prior thread on this subject that will give you a lot of places to consider. We tried the new place opened by Santa Monica Seafood on Wilshire Blvd. @ 10th Street and I was not very impressed. Kind of an off putting taste to the batter maybe due to the oil possibly.
re: Servorg
What is the new place associated with Santa Monica Seafood? Is that the 10th Street Cafe? Why have we not heard more about it?
re: axeled
The 10th Street Cafe is on the S/E corner of Wilshire at 10th in Santa Monica, in a former Carl's Jr., with parking in the back. It is indeed run by the folks from Santa Monica Seafood, and eventually is planned to be their new home. (Their current shop location is being taken over by some industry production house.) As now set up, 10th Street Cafe is fairly large but very basic -- you order and pick up at the counter and there are plenty of tables. Unfortunately, they use plastic utensils, trays, and squeeze-packet ketchup, and soft drinks are from cans. But that said, I've enjoyed the food very much. They serve spicy tuna burgers and fried calamari and the like for about $6.95, daily specials of fresh fish served with rice and veggies are about $13. I had a very delicious and satisfying fish and chips -- three discs of cod in a light very crispy batter, the fish juicy and not overcooked, accompanied by some thin fresh-cut fries and cole slaw, all for under $10. When they opened in the very late fall they closed at 6, when I went last month they had extended their hours until 7. Very friendly and accommodating service -- when I asked about their clam chowder they immediately offered me a small taste, and it was delicious, a must-order next time or on these cold, rainy days. While the place is a bit spartan, those dining when we had a late lunch seemed to enjoy the sense of a shared discovery. My understanding is that they will operate in the present form through the spring, then there will be a remodel to reconfigure and transfer the fresh seafood market, and then they will re-open as both later in the summer.
re: nosh
Thanks for the update. Had I know the connection, I would have tried the cafe a long time ago. I have family in OC and have always been a little disappointed that the SM Seafood down there has had a much better repertoire (lunch and dinner meals with sides, etc. and places to sit and eat. I have always claimed that the clam chowder at SMS is the best anywhere. I will be heading to 10th Street tomorrow to pick some up for dinner. I can't imagine how that is going to be a god location for there new digs, but it is closer to me, so I'm looking forward to it!
re: Bob Brooks
The best fish and chips is at Finns in Calabasas...only the Ivy in London is better and cost 3x as much.
re: danikm
I've recommended Michelia's several times here before; unfortunately it is closed (or closing):
re: Fru
I forgot about fish king but as I have said before; I am not looking for traditional. I am looking for breaded and fried fish. It brings me straight back to my days in Chicago while attending culinary school.
I would get a bag of what was probably scrod that was BREADED and fried.
It made studying fun. I am just looking for a version of it. Not the english pub style.
Too bad about Michelia's....
re: girlwonder
I think most chain restaurants do it breaded. Also, Barney's Ltd (not Barney's Beanery) in old town, Pasadena does it breaded. I don't like it breaded so I don't eat that there. But their turkey dip is sooo good.
re: Liz
Liz - Did you ever try the suggestion I made back in June??
i know these are battered but they're the best in LA: Malibu Seafood
re: jeremypb
i grew up on cape cod so ive had my fair share of authentic fish and chips. malibu fish is the best fish and chips ive ever had. they are quite awesome!
re: RoachCoach
Thanks roachcoach.
This might be my only other alternative.
I like the fish n' chips at the Olde Ship in Santa Ana. Didn't know how far out of LA you were willing to go. Traditional fish n' chips are definitely NOT breaded. They are always battered and deep fried (not the healthiest option, though, to be fair). And their sticky toffee pudding is also not to be missed. Yum!
re: FoodieKat
But she didn't ask for traditional. She asked for breaded.
The Redwood Bar & Grill has excellent breaded F&C. I normally prefer battered myself, but a friend I was there with shared some of hers with me, and even after having cooled off a bit the fish was very good. I suspect the breading is panko - can't think why anyone would use anything else - and the fish was moist, tender and flavorful, which is often not the case with the battered version.
re: Will Owen
So then they must have changed the recipe from their menu description?
Craftsman Fish and Chips – $13
Beer battered cod filet with redwood slaw and thick sliced potato chips
re: Servorg
Dang! I know I didn't have THAT much to drink! Maybe they've managed to make it taste breaded? Or changed the recipe - this was well over a year ago, not long after the remodel.
Now I'm just going to have to go down there and see for myself...
re: Will Owen
We don't get downtown all that often or I would give it a go too. Their menu description sounds delicious. My only complaint would be that they are serving "potato chips" and not true English "chips" (french fries) with their fish.
Looking forward to reading all about your visit.
re: Servorg
Oddly enough, I remember eating steak fries (my personal favorite variety) with what I tasted, though those may well have been the ones that came with my burger. Most places that have different kinds of fries on the menu will usually allow substitutes - I know Hamburger Hamlet does, so I'd think a nice pub like this would too.
re: Will Owen
is this redwood bar and grill on 2nd?
re: ns1
Oui. Masterful rehab job, if you've ever been to it in the old days - cleaned and retrimmed the upholstery, washed all the old cigarette schmutz off the walls, revamped the menu so the food's really good instead of just OK, and worked in this goofy pirate theme (Aaarrghh!). All clean and nice, and even MORE soulful than it was. Killer bar, too.
re: Will Owen
Interesting, I drive by it all the time and never thought to step in. Time to search the boards...
I'm curious why no one has mentioned Andria's in Ventura. Never been myself but have heard lots of positive reviews. Thoughts?

Roughly 110 miles from Freeport, I plunged six feet down from the M/V Fling, into the Gulf of Mexico to explore the Flower Gardens Banks National Marine Sanctuary. Here, rays of sun stream through Jolly Rancher-blue waters, a setting unlike anything near the shore. A school of fish gathered under the boat and a torpedo-shaped barracuda hung motionless in the water 20 yards away. Admiring his buoyancy control, I swam down to the reef, clearly visible 80 feet below.
Under water, light behaves differently; colors sparkle, then fade. Sounds magnify and distort. Liquid cradles a body accustomed to mere air. Down and up become abstractions. Swimming equals flying. Water replaces atmosphere, and the sea floor or lake bottom might resemble a barren moon or the most riotous field of flora imaginable.

LEE COUNTY, Fla.- Scammers are at it once again, this time targeting Earthlink e-mail account holders with threats of closing their accounts if they don't respond to the request to "update" their account information.
The sender, who claims to be from the "Earthlink Technical Support Team", warns that if the user does not respond within seven days, he/she will permanently lose their e-mail account.
In an effort to confirm the legitimacy of the e-mail, contact was made with a representative from Earthlink's Fraud Department who confirmed the e-mail is a hoax.
This now all-too-common scam is an attempt to gain personal and financial information by enticing the user to "click" on an attached link, which sends the unsuspecting user to a third party site run by thieves and scammers. Unfortunately, users who respond to the scammers request to provide information such as their date of birth and social security number will more then likely become a victim of identity theft.
"Phishing" scams like this one are made to appear as if they are from a legitimate retailer, bank, organization or government agency. The Lee County Sheriff's Office encourages you to look for these signs when contemplating the possibility of a fraudulent e-mail:
-Generic greeting such as "Dear Customer"
-Alarming or urgent statements requiring immediate action
-Unexpected e-mails with links or attachments
If you have responded to a phishing scam like this one, take these steps to minimize damage:
-Report the incident to the three major credit reporting agencies
-Report the incident to the credit card company you gave the scammer
-Change passwords to compromised accounts
-Routinely review your bank and credit card statements
-Scan your computer to check and remove unwanted software
-Contact the Lee County Sheriff's Office Fraud Line (477-1242)
