My case is 15 yr. old Federal. It was working OK(I have some noise issues) and today I am noticing my chocolate is a bit tacky. Not melted tacky but a rough and slightly sweaty/sticky feel to it. I called Federal and they told me to up the humidity and lower the temp...Would love any other thoughts/experiences? Also am trying to find out if my chocolate will recover or if I should nix it.
Also, the Federal guy said I should not keep my Truffles in a case that is set between 60-70 degrees...how do you handle mixed cases(truffles and regular chocolate items.)

Hi, I don't understand American measurements in temperature, but just wanted to comment on the advice you received from Federal. Humidity is as much a killer of chocolate as temperature, so to say to turn the humidity up seems like a very bad idea - you are just adding more moisture into the air.
It sounds like your chocolate may have been exposed to moisture given your description - so perhaps it got a touch too warm and a little too humid.
All the best
Hi Stu,
That's why I posted...it seemed counter-intuitive to turn up the humidity when it seemed this was the issue I was having but the gentleman at Federal insisted this was the fix. His reasoning being that if I turned up the humidity the heater that runs the humidity would run a shorter amount of time. To be honest it sounded like he was reading out a manual and didn't really know what I should be doing. I could be way off base and don't want to disparage him if he was giving me the correct advice.
I was also hoping to get "chocolate" advice...so thanks. Open to any other suggestions as well.
Dear Jody,
It does sound like you are having problems with humidity in your cabinet. I have a similar case, and although it has a dial to control humidity, and a tray to drain off the water, it really isn't effective as a dehumidifier. I find that I need to remove various items (especially pieces with fine salt, powdered sugar, or other particularly hygroscopic particulates) overnight to a humidity and temperature controlled environment to keep them from absorbing moisture. I have tried adding a small dehumidifier to my display case (in the lower compartment) without much obvious success. Best wishes!
You are having humidity issues in your case.
First of all, is your case a gravity coil or forced air?.
Gravity coil is where you have a metal "box" hanging directly underneath the ceiling of your case. Worst thing for chocolate. Forced air is where the coil is underneath the bottom, and a fan blows cool air through vents up.
Refrigeration is kind of a two part system, but it doesn't "make" things cold, it removes heat. You have a compressor which compresses a gas (in a 15 yr old case it would r-12). This gas is pumped in a line to the second part, called the coil or an evaporator. Here the gas expands, and as it expands it absorbs heat, is pumped back to the compressor, where it expels the heat as it is re-compressed.
Humidity is another issue. Where ever you have two temperature extremes, you will have humidity--just like when you take a jug of milk out of the fridge and let it sit on the counter for a few minutes, the outside of the jug will "Sweat".
If none of this is making any sense at all, I had a similar problem in the summer. My case runs at 17-20 C (somewhere around 70, I guess), but when I came in one morning, my chocolates were all sticky and developed sugar bloom. Someone hadn't shut the sliding doors tightly enough, and warm air leaked in. Warm air + cold air= humidity.
So I guess the first thing would be to look for air leaks or excessive opening of the case.
The second thing would be to get rid of of a gravity coil case. It's fine for deli stuff, but not for tempermental chocolates. Most newer cases are forced air.
I hope I am making sense.....

Short staffing/call ins
- 1Feb 5, '12 by paddlerI'm new to a large SNF with 3 units. All nurses are excepted to float all units ("so nobody gets in a rut", but really it feels like nobody is able to get into a time efficient groove because of this). We work 8.5 hour shifts. There are frequent call ins on both the Aides and nurses behalf. There is high staff turnover. Worse is, the schedule is poorly staffed to begin with. Nurses and aides are asked to work doubles ALL THE TIME, and we get called on our days off to cover shifts. It's crazy. It's making me feel like I should just move right in to the facility so I can be available at a moment's notice. (Kidding of course, not that I WANT to be available all the time). There are 2-3 aides per unit, no bath aide, and each aide generally is assigned 12-13 (sometimes more) residents. The nurses get 18-25 patients a piece. There is no admission nurse, unit coordinator, or assistant so if by chance an admit gets put on your unit (with no notice of course), you have to suddenly fabricate 2 hours of time in your already completely busy day to complete the 600 pages of admission charting. There is no team work, as in, the next shift accepts responsibility for following through with uncompleted admission charting. The onus is on the nurse who was on shift in the unit during the time the patient was admitted, not that they had any say in the matter. I have come in on my day off to complete admission documentation because of this. Imagine getting two admits? (shivers)
Are these staffing issues normal where you work too? To me, this is completely insane and I may have to become part of the "high staffing turnover rates" because of it.Last edit by paddler on Feb 5, '12
- 3This does not sound unique to me. Chances are high that it would be the same set of circumstances or similar at the next job.
- 0You are not the first that may be a little disillusioned. It happens to almost everyone some time after they start out. Trick is to figure out how to continue without letting your disappointment cloud your entire existence, but that could be said for many lines of work.
- 1I found it a little difficult to get used to people complaining all the time about shift to shift transfer of duties. Nobody could understand the concept of "24 hour operation", but then, I was not the type to slouch around and leave tasks for others that I could have accomplished on my own shift.
- 1Mar 8, '12 by MK1908I can relate to the short staffing/call-in issues. At my facility it happens all the time. As a result of this, staff end up getting mandated to stay (RNs work 12-hour shifts, CNA's work 8 hours) while the staffing coordinator tries to find someone to come in. The staff is getting burned out, which I believe is contributing to the increase in turn-over and call ins. Positive reinforcement and praise goes a long way in helping someone realize that they are important and are needed at the facility.
- 2Mar 8, '12 by nursecathiWe have plenty of call ins at my facility too. It's mostly CNA's. Don't have much of a problem with most of the nurses. One, in fact, has a two year perfect attendance record! And teamwork? Ha! I have started a new program this year to try to help that. We have monthly team work awards. We have a box to put the votes in, staff votes for the co-worker they think deserves it. I bought prizes--nothing fancy, a "great teamwork" badge holder pin for the nurses, a special CNA badge holder pin for the aides, a sports bottle and they get a framed certificate which is hung in the staff break lounge for all to see. They have to write a reason the person deserves the award (to keep from ballot stuffing). Those with the most votes at the end of the month wins. We have a little "ceremony" in front of everyone to announce the winners. One nurse, one CNA each month. I've tried having "mini muffin Mondays"--I spend all day Sunday baking and take them in. I've bought lunch for the weekend staff. I send messages thanking them for all the hard work on Caretracker. In all these efforts, nothing seems to work much. We still have call ins and turn-over. I know you can't "buy" them but I thought showing them a little appreciation would help. If anyone comes up with an answer, please share!!
- 0Mar 24, '12 by CrystalRN11I agree this is totally insane. A place I know has the same nursing and cna shortages on a daily basis, I feel bad for the staff. They are union and agreed to mandating in their contract, but it's the same people over and over again. Management will not hire any more for whatever reason. It's a very difficult cycle.
- 0Mar 26, '12 by MK1908My facility was finally able to hire more staff, but I'm afraid that the people with negative attitudes about staffing/call-ins and the new hires seeing people get mandated will scare them away. A few of the new staff are right out of school. I'm doing my best on an individual basis to make it a point to tell the new hires how glad we are to have them and that we appreciate their hard work. Retention is a big issue in our facility. If things get tough or challenging, staff quit. Any other ideas on how to try and retain my new nurses/aides?
- 2Mar 27, '12 by Nascar nurse, ASN, RNQuote from MK1908My biggest rule for myself as a manager is always praise in public and give constructive criticism in private. I make it a frequent point to give a shout out to someone who did a great job.Any other ideas on how to try and retain my new nurses/aides?
With new staff I often find myself needing to re-educate them on something. I usually put a "love note" on their time card asking them to come see me and I really call them a "love note". It's just my way of saying "Hey, come see me and don't be afraid you're in trouble but I need to explain something better". The first couple times they come in hesitating but after a bit, they walking in smiling asking "What did I do wrong now" with no real fear. I actually love hiring new nurses and I love helping them to become really good nurses. I am so proud of them as I see the constant improvement and watch them gain confidence in themselves. Many are very eager to learn and willing to accept and learn from mistakes. Admittedly, some don't get it, don't want to get it or whatever - they just eventually gotta go. The good outweigh the bad by miles.

Hit us up and put "D3 Lacrosse" in the subject line to get on our radar.
We'll start off with some of the big story lines, because that's the way this thing works.
Cortland Tops Stevens in OT – See Game Photos and more, here.
0-2 Tufts Beats Stevens – Rough week for the Ducks. If you believe our report, Stevens was never really in this one. I watched the webcast and had similar thoughts. Getting 27 players back from suspension certainly helps, and when you combine this win with Tufts two one-goal losses to quality NESCAC teams early it is clear that the Jumbos are certainly contenders. If they wear brown more often, this is doubly true. Ok, that is a lie, but the brown looks good.

Stevenson Rout in first MAC game - What a surprise, Stevenson absolutely destroyed the opposition in their new conference opener. It may take some time before we see Stevenson involved in another interesting in-conference game. 19-3 over Elizabethtown is a good start to the AQ for the Mustangs.
How serious are those camo sideline jackets for Stevenson? I'm actually jealous and love those, even thought I'm usually not a huge camo guy.

Classic Cabrini - You knew this was coming. Cabrini loses to someone good, or someone bad, and then they win a big game, then lose, then win. It's classic Cabrini. Just when you think they're out, they win. When you become a believer, they lose. I like Cabrini, but come tourney time you need consistency, and the ability to string together multiple wins… Cabrini doesn't have that yet. Hey Clay, how'd I do for an explanation there?
Classic Bates Vs Wesleyan – You can almost guarantee than any year in which Wesleyan gets ranked in the Top 20 early, or starts to receive votes, they will lose to Bates. The Cardinals looked great early, topping Williams, Hamilton, and Lasell. They lost to Bates 7-5. I secretly think Astap loves sticking it to us more than anyone else. I guess that's not so secret anymore.

Lil Wayne)' The Honesty Hour September 25, 2013 Music Videos 1 Comment Paris Hilton signed with Young Money earlier this year and immediately got to work. Now, the hotel heiress unveils a teaser for the music video for her big comeback single, "Good Time," featuring mentor Lil Wayne. "Are you having a good time?/ 'Cause I'm having a good time," she talks over the dance-inspired beat. "And I might be a bit tipsy/ But that's okay 'cause you're with me." "Good Time" will arrive in full on October 1. Paris' sophomore studio album is slated for release in 2014, and is said to feature collaborations with Flo Rida and Snoop Dogg.

Nehalem Bay Crab Derby Returns with a "Battle of the Bay" and a "Booby Prize"
NEHALEM BAY, OR -- May 2012 -- The Nehalem Bay Crab Derby will return to the Oregon Coast Saturday June 9th. Kelly's Brighton Marina is hosting the competition as a fundraiser for the non-profit Rinehart Clinic and the North Coast Wildlife Rehabilitation Center. Among the grand prizes in the heated competition is a free vasectomy compliments of the Rinehart Clinic.
Here's how the competition works: On Saturday morning before the Derby begins, event staffers will release 26 tagged crabs into the Nehalem Bay at Kelly's Brighton Marina and 26 tagged crabs at the Jetty Fishery. The released crabs represent thousands of dollars in prizes ranging from gift certificates to coastal hotels and fishing gear. This year in addition to the vasectomy, the Rinehart clinic is donating the Booby Prize – a free mammogram. At 5pm, organizers randomly draw the numbers and match them for prizes.
"We were all sitting around the crab shop one winter and drummed up the idea of a Dungeness derby to lure Portlanders to town," said Kelly Laviolette of Kelly's Brighton Marina. "We wanted to have the proceeds benefit The Clinic but we needed a hook and that's when we came up with the idea for the free vasectomy," said Laviolette.
This year, Saturday's festivities will take place at both Kelly's Brighton Marina and The Jetty Fishery. In a friendly Family competition, the two Marinas will be competing in the Battle of the Bay. The Marina that produces fewer tagged crabs will make the bigger donation.
Derby dates coincide with the yearly Free Fishing Weekend, when no license for crabbing, clamming or fishing is required. Additional activities include a Children's Art Competition, Clam and Oyster Walk, Beer & Wine garden, and a local farmer's market section. The Rinehart clinic will be providing free blood pressure screenings on site and The Wildlife Center will be providing an up-close and personal exposure to rescued wild animals such as several species of owls and eagles. No experience is necessary, as staffers will be on hand for instruction. Reservations for taking part in the Crab Derby are not required, but recommended by calling Kelly's Brighton Marina at 503-368-5745 or go to

A local island just off of the coast of New Zealand might be imagined as running rampant with indigenous plant life, yurts, wild life and not a whole lot to it. Patterson Associates Architects changes that vision of the Waiheke Island with their "Local Rock House."
The residence utilizes local rocks (hence the name) to belong in its setting and help the residents feel the same. An intimate living area, rock mass bridge and grotto style courtyard are all amazing elements of this rustic home. Bedrooms provide privacy with lookout areas and cantilevered upper terraces. With beach access, this rock home can do no wrong.

Philosophy of Fox Vs Philosophy
May 17, 2012 - John Stack
I claimed in a recent blog that the "vast majority of hate crimes and hate groups are Christian white conservative racists". I understand some people can misunderstand this quote. Does it say all whites are racists? No. Does it say all Christians are racists? No. Evan a cursory look at this tells you that I did not call all Christians, whites or conservatives racist. I did say that racists by and large are white, and/or Christian and/or conservative. Lets be very basic. If I say all grass is green, I do not mean the converse that all things that are green are grass. (Ie- the inverse is not true, the converse in not true, but the contrapositive is true – if not green, then not grass)
That being true, what is the makeup of hate groups in America? The Southern Law Poverty Center and the ADL and the FBI keep lists of the hate groups in America. So, my supposition is that the vast majority of hate groups are White, Christian Conservative. Lets take a look at the list of hate groups in America. I guess if I were to follow my comrade Rick's scientific methodology, I'm sure I will find out most of the hate groups are black, non-Christian liberals. Lets see who the SLPC includes in their list of 1002 Hate groups : neo-Nazis, Klansmen, white nationalists, neo-Confederates, racist skinheads, black separatists, and border vigilantes. Yup Rick. Liberals all. Lots of muslims too…
What other violent groups are there? Well, the second largest group monitored are the extreme right anti-government 'Patriot' groups. These are not your local American Legion members like my uncles peter and John or my grandfather George. No, these Patriot groups see the federal government as their biggest threat and condone a violent take over of these institutions (such as Timothy McVeigh who I don't remember as a card carrying ACLU member). The SPLC documented 824 of these groups in 2010. Militias, the paramilitary arm of the Patriot groups, counted 330 groups among there numbers in 2010.
The next largest group the SPLC documents are Nativist Extreme groups. The SPLC defines these as ' organizations that go beyond mere advocacy of restrictive immigration policy to actually confront or harass suspected undocumented immigrants or their employers ". There were 309 such groups in 2010.
The SPLC also keeps a current list of 'hate incidents'. In 2011-2012, it shows 34 incidents in New York – they were almost all anti—Jewish, andi – muslim, and anti- gay and anti-black incidents. (one was where the Virgin Mary was painted black and its unknown the belief behind that). None, (amazingly I guess) were against pro-life, anti-gay, anti-arab, anti-jewish people.
Yeah, there is hate in all corners. I'm would never say a Democrat or a Liberal or a gay person can't be bad, hateful or evil. But, as I said the VAST majority of these hate groups and hate crimes are committed by those associated with far right conservative beliefs. This is a fact. This is not an opinion. The SPLC, the ADL and the FBI all agree upon this.
I also disavow the people who try to use democrats/liberal ideology to keep in the news. For every Al Sharpton, there are hundreds of Aryan Nation groups. Look onlineand you will see hundreds of blogs saying 'liberals are the most racist group' blah blah blah. But, there is no evidence whatsoever backing it up. Yet, there are mountains of evidence supporting the hate groups aligned with far right ideology.
The latest: 2011 marked the first year that in the US, more non-white babies were born than white babies. The tide has turned. Keep spitting into the wind. We know what will happen if if you don't.

Anyone living and entering Potters Bar in the last 45 years will believe that Potters Bar forms part of the county of Hertfordshire when in fact it lies within the ancient county of Middlesex.
Middlesex was recorded in the Domesday Book as being divided into six hundreds of Edmonton, Elthorne, Gore, Isleworth, Ossulstone and Spelthorne.
North-western suburbs of the city of London steadily covered large parts of Middlesex, the coming of the railways enforced this and in 1888 these areas became part of the county of London.
The next few decades saw the urbanisation of much of Middlesex by the expanding suburbs of London. By the end of this period many borough demanded independence from the Middlesex County Council as county boroughs. If this was granted Middlesex would have been left as an area with three unconnected fragments in the west, south-east and north of the county.
Instead, in 1965 nearly all of what was left of Middlesex was subsumed into the newly formed Greater London Authority. The area of Potters Bar was one of the few areas ceded to one of the other county councils, for us it was Hertfordshire County Council.

So I was excited when I was invited this past weekend to swim at Sheraton Waikiki's new infinity edge pool. It's pretty much the same as my Uncle's pool; that is if my Uncle's pool received a $6 million upgrade, and was moved from Aiea and perched mere feet above the most iconic beach in the world. Did I mention that you can drink cocktails in the pool? Aside from using the bathroom, there's pretty much no good reason to ever leave the pool…so we didn't.

Poolside pupus.
My friends and I camped out at a corner near the pool's signature bar, Edge of Waikiki. After the first sip of our tropical drinks, we unanimously decided that it was the best day ever... and it kept getting better. Our euphoria must have been contagious, because by dusk (yes, we stayed in the pool till dusk), we were clinking mai tais with pretty much everyone in pool-adise.
For years, Sheraton Waikiki has boasted having the best view of Waikiki Beach and Diamond Head from 30 floors up at Twist at Hanohano, but I think the view from 30 floors down is just as amazing.

Case 1—Eyelid Nodule
AS, a 28-year-old man, presents to the pharmacy with a "lump on his eyelid" that he first noticed the day before and describes as being tender to the touch. He reports no pain or discharge from the eye, but indicates the nodule is starting to cause some mild irritation. He has not had any recent trauma to the eye. Upon inspection, you notice some localized swelling and redness where the nodule is located (at the base of an eyelash), and that it does not appear to be associated with a loss of lashes or discoloration of the surrounding skin. Identify AS's condition and describe appropriate self-care strategies to alleviate his symptoms.
Mild disorders of the eye and eyelid are common reasons patients seek the advice of a pharmacist. AS is most likely suffering from an external hordeolum or stye—an acute inflammation of the eyelid that usually arises from an occluded eyelash follicle or tear gland. For patients with symptoms of serious ocular disorders, referral for evaluation by a physician or ophthalmologist is critical to prevent treatment delays or vision loss; however, AS reports generally mild symptoms. He does not report crusting, scaling, or significant reddening of the eyelid, which could indicate infection. Skin cancer of the eyelid, which can present as discolored nodules and a loss of eyelashes, is also an unlikely cause of his ailment. Styes usually resolve spontaneously, but for bothersome symptoms, patients may be counseled to apply warm compresses to the affected eyelid for 5 to 15 minutes several times per day—using a new compress each time and not using compresses that are too hot to minimize irritation and injury to the delicate eyelid skin. Homeopathic eye drops and ointments may be used for symptomatic relief of redness, discomfort, and irritation; however, there is little evidence to indicate that these products expedite healing or resolution of the stye itself. For symptoms that worsen or persist for more than a week with self-care, physician referral is warranted.
Case 2—Itchy Rash
MG is a 39-year-old woman who comes to the pharmacy complaining of an itchy rash all over her legs. She first noticed the rash after she went hiking through a wooded area 2 days ago. Upon inspection, you notice linear streaking that looks like a mild dermatitis. What is MG's condition, and how would you treat it?
MG's rash is likely poison ivy, based on her history of recent outdoor activity. The goals of selftreatment include protecting the area to prevent itching and excessive scratching, which may lead to open lesions or secondary skin infections. After exposure to the poison ivy plant, the patient should wash the affected area to remove any remaining allergens within 10 minutes of exposure. Although MG is not likely to benefit from washing her skin 2 days after exposure, it is prudent to recommend she wash exposed clothes to prevent the rash from spreading due to indirect contact. Because her rash is mild, it is recommended that MG apply cool compresses of either oatmeal bath or calamine lotion. The addition of menthol (0.25%) and phenol (1%) to the calamine lotion can also be an option to alleviate itching. The American Academy of Dermatology also recommends the use of topical steroids to relieve localized itching or swelling for mild cases of contact dermatitis.
MG should apply a steroid cream twice daily for 2 weeks or while the rash persists.
Patients experiencing severe symptoms, (eg, having numerous bullae, extreme itching, irritation, or swelling of extremities); a rash covering more than 25% of total body surface area or affecting the face, eyes and eyelids, or genitals; and children younger than 2 years of age are not candidates for self-treatment and should be counseled to seek physician referral.

Can Chocolate Eaters Weigh Less?
Chocolate is inherently rich in magnesium, potassium, beta-carotene, vitamin E, niacin, and folic acid
In a letter published in the Archives of Internal Medicine, researchers have announced an association that is sure to please chocolate lovers: a preliminary study has found that people who ate chocolate frequently had a lower BMI (body-mass index) than people who ate chocolate infrequently or not at all.
They collected data about diet, physical activity, and mood from 1,018 healthy adults. They also calculated BMI for each participant using their height and weight. BMI is a measure of weight relative to height and is commonly used to diagnose underweight, overweight, and obesity.
Frequent chocolate eaters are thinner
The researchers made the following observations:
The researchers said their findings agree with previous findings, "suggesting that diet composition, as well as calorie number, may influence BMI." They note that chocolate has demonstrated other positive effects such as improving insulin sensitivity, lowering blood pressure, and reducing cholesterol levels, all of which suggests that chocolate may protect against cardiovascular disease.
What everyone should know about chocolate
These current findings about chocolate and weight are preliminary, since they have been published as a letter and have not yet been reviewed by other researchers. Nonetheless, dieters trying to lose weight may feel encouraged that indulging modestly in dark chocolate may still be reasonable. Here are some other things to remember about chocolate:

Lasers could be used to kill mosquitoes en masse, stem malaria
A relic from the '80s, Reagan's "Star Wars" program, or Strategic Defense Initiative, involved lasers designed to shoot down satellites. Decades later, I'm happy to report that we're looking into how to turn those lasers on mosquitoes.
Yep, you read that right — we're finally going to war with the buggers.
Some high-caliber researchers, including Nathan Myhrvold (formerly of Microsoft, pictured top right) and Jordin Kare (a former employee of the Lawrence Livermore National Laboratory, which is a serious weapons lab), are looking at how lasers could pinpoint and eradicate one of the pests from a distance. An early demonstration showed promise, as mosquitoes inside a glass box were lit up by non-lethal beams from 100 feet away.
The scientists aren't working on producing a better American picnic, though. The real target is malaria, which kills around a million people every year — most of them in developing countries.
It's all part of a serious initiative backed by the likes of Bill Gates, the UN and non-profits such as Malaria No More to fund vaccines and preventive technologies that could curtail the spread of the deadly disease. Mosquitoes have proven resistant to previous attempts to dissuade or poison them — let's hope they don't become invulnerable to lasers, too.

NEW YORK, February 7, 2012—When running a themed race, like Disney's Princess Half Marathon or Bay to Breakers in San Francisco, it's awfully tempting to run in costume. Wearing a super hero cape for a Spartan race or fairy wings for a Disney run can be a fun way to get into the spirit. But for the women behind Team Sparkle, it's more than fun. It's a way of life.
Kelly Lewis, Carrie Lundell and Elise Wallace are spreading the power of sparkle with their line of sparkle skirts, sparkle sleeves, racing legs and fairy wings for runners. They encourage runners to put together do-it-yourself costumes made of running-friendly fabrics so they can spread the sparkle spirit at races nationwide.
"You can wear something fun, you can wear something technical and still run fast," Lewis says of the Team Sparkle spirit.
I met the ladies at the Tinker Bell Half Marathon and was struck by their passion for flair. They manned their booth at the race expo as Tinker Bell, Snow White and Sleeping Beauty. For the half-marathon itself, Lewis ran as Captain Hook to Lundell's Peter Pan (pictured above). Every costume they come up with is built around an appropriately colored sparkle skirt and an assortment of other items that they either have in their closets or found for the occasion.
Some runners rely on ready-made store-bought costumes, like the one I wore for the Tinker Bell Half Marathon. But not every fabric is made to swish. My Tinker Bell costume sure was cute, but it rubbed me the wrong way, literally. To avoid the dreaded chafe but still get your costume on while running 13.1 or even 26.2 miles takes a certain kind of know how.
"You can actually make a functional running costume," Lewis says, rather than wear a children's costume made of scratchy, unforgiving material. "I knew there just had to be a better way—to wear something that was comfortable, that you could run fast in and not chafe and still have fun in."
The three friends, who are long-time runners and triathletes, started Team Sparkle three years ago almost by accident. A seamstress by training with a college major in fashion design, Lundell had been making sequined skirts for her daughters to play dress-up. When one of her daughters insisted on wearing the skirt on a mountain biking trip, Lundell was surprised to find the skirt helpful; she could see her daughter from far away as her skirt sparkled in the sun.
She had an idea for the Surf City USA Marathon in Huntington Beach, Calif., which the three women were planning to run together.
"Carrie said, 'You're going to think I'm crazy, but I think we should wear these sparkly skirts for our race,'" Lewis remembers. After all, eye-popping colors and unusual clothes are easier to spot in a sea of runners than the usual parade of black shorts and white tanks.
"We got so many people complimenting us and asking us about them during the race, that we thought maybe we should see if we can sell these," Lewis says. Thus Team Sparkle was born.
While they initially made the skirts themselves, their business quickly outpaced their ability to sew. After all, Lewis, Lundell and Wallace are all busy moms with eight kids between them, ranging in age from 2 months to 9 years old. Team Sparkle's skirts and racing sleeves are now manufactured in California, and their racing legs are made in Kentucky. All of their materials are runner friendly lightweight poly-nylon or poly-cotton blends.
But it wasn't until Lewis ran the Disneyland Half Marathon in September of 2010 that she got the idea to start a costume guide for runners.
"There weren't a lot of people who dressed up for it," she says. "I ran as Tinker Bell and it was just so much fun to run as a character. That's so much of what the Team Sparkle spirit is about."
After the Disneyland Half, Lewis was completely taken by the idea of running in costume. "I thought, 'Okay, what else can I dress up as?'"
Lewis's ideas are abundant. Simply perusing the Team Sparkle costume guide shows she's given this a lot of thought. One of my favorites: running as Tweedle Dum and Tweedle Dee from Alice In Wonderland. Lewis's own personal blog, According to Kelly, also includes tips for runners wearing wings and other accoutrements.
It's one thing to run in costume at a race like the Tinker Bell Half Marathon, where half of the runners are wearing something with flair. It's another thing to do it at any given race.
"You get the true sparkle experience at a normal race when everyone else is in shorts and you're in a sparkle skirt," Lewis says, like when she ran the Las Vegas Marathon dressed as Elvis, complete with a pair of sunglasses—at night.
"Accessories are the key," she says. "They can make a costume."
She gives an easy Ariel costume for The Little Mermaid as an example. "Wear a purple sports bra and a green skirt," she says. "If you put on a red hat and a seashell, everyone knows who you are."
Accessories are also one of the best ways to signify who you are without having to wear heavy, hot, or scratchy clothing.
"When you're talking about the Disney princesses, one of the best costume accessories that you don't want to overlook are arm sleeves," Lewis says. Her next race is Disney's Princess Half Marathon on Feb. 26 in Walt Disney World. "Arms can get hot and uncomfortable, but you can easily adapt arm sleeves to give people an idea of what you're doing."
Another key princess accoutrement, she says, is headgear. "All the princesses wear headbands or a crown," Lewis says. "And don't forget the shoes. Wear pom-poms for Tinker Bell shoes. As Snow White, put big red bows on your shoes."
To build an entire look, she says, you don't have to spend a lot of money. "Keep it simple and look at stuff in your house," Lewis says. "Utilize your kids' stuff."
And of course, always give your costume a test run. "Make sure you can handle the distance you're going to run in it," she says. "Make sure it doesn't chafe or bob. If you can do 6 miles in it, you can do 13."
Team Sparkle hopes their sparkle skirts and sparkle sleeve can help inspire an endless number of costumes for runners, no matter the race they are targeting. Their costume guide is constantly growing and includes Disney characters, super heroes, elves, pirates and more.

Hollywood Dream Homes
From mind-blowing glass mansions to chic Hamptons estates, here are ten movie digs that make us want to crawl right into the silver screen
By Seth Michael Donsky
Lake House (2006)
This innovative and modern home on stilts was actually a film set that was dismantled at the end of the production of this popular romantic comedy. The film tells the story of an architect (Keanu Reaves) who, through the mailbox of his former lake house, exchanges life stories with the new tenant (Sandra Bullock), but two years later. Way more than the time-travel love story, it's the focus on architecture that really sells us. Set in Chicago, the film frequently pays tribute to the city's great and influential architectural history—in one scene, a character even refers to this house with a low, sweeping roofline and window-filled walls as "Le Corbusier meets Frank Lloyd Wright."

Despite the devastation caused in New York by Hurricane Sandy, the New York Marathon will go ahead on Sunday as scheduled, New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg said on Wednesday.Marathon officials had been proceeding as planned to stage the annual event that runs through all five boroughs of the largest city in America, but they were awaiting final word from city officials regarding the staging of the race.Flooding and power outages remained common around the city and subway and other transit systems remained shut down because of the damage caused by the killer superstorm that blasted ashore late Monday in nearby New Jersey.Mary Wittenberg, president of the New York Road Runners, said the organising group was set to hire private contractors to replace city workers who would typically handle such things as security and medical needs for the race.Many of those workers will be spending all week helping New York pull together after the storm shattered buildings and trees in a pre-Halloween horror show.Wittenberg said the race could serve as much-needed inspiration to New Yorkers and help boost some businesses that suffered storm-related losses.
NBA delay
However, damage across New York from Hurricane Sandy forced the NBA to postpone the Brooklyn Nets' home opener against the New York Knicks originally set for Thursday, the league announced.
The long-awaited game, the first for the club in the new $1 billion Barclays Center since the club moved from New Jersey after last season, did not immediately receive a rescheduled date.A day after vowing the game would go on, the league was told by New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg that the smartest move was a postponement."Mayor Bloomberg informed us this afternoon that after further analysis of the damage caused by Hurricane Sandy that he felt it was in the best interests of the city of New York, the teams and our fans that we postpone the Knicks-Nets game," NBA deputy commissioner Adam Silver said.
"We're definitely disappointed not to be able to play because it was the home opener"
Brookly Nets guard Deron Williams
"Our thoughts are with all those affected by this devastating storm."The showdown was to have been the first home game for a Brooklyn-based sports team since Major League Baseball's Brooklyn Dodgers moved to Los Angeles after the 1957 season."We're definitely disappointed not to be able to play because it was the home opener," nets guard Deron Williams told ESPN."A lot of people have lost homes, have lost loved ones, so in the grand scheme of things it's really not that important.
"There's high water in a lot of places. There are a lot of problems out there."

Guardian has new Arctic Correspondent for the next year
The disappearing world of the last of the Arctic hunters | World news | The Observer
The disappearing world of the last of the Arctic hunters
In the first of a series of dispatches, Stephen Pax Leonard reports on the unique culture of the Inughuit as the sea ice that has supported their ancient way of life melts beneath them
Doomed, I tell you, doomed. If it isn't the ice disappearing it is the the US Air Force dropping hydrogen bombs, or strict hunting quotas, or the abandonment of Greenland's One Price Policy...
"It is late September in the High Arctic, the outside temperature is -3C and there is little hope of the sea ice forming any time soon."
Except it has been reforming at a record rate.
Do you know how bad it is?
Global warming has a human cost too, tearing families apart. To visit their Canadian relatives, these people would now have to fly to Copenhagen 4,000km away then across the Atlantic to Montreal and up from there.

Time again for my latest portfolio results, this time for the May expiration month. As always, I will break down the sources of my results so that you can keep track of how each strategy is doing. Beyond the actual numbers, this report is meant to give you an over-the-shoulder look into my trading and the lessons I've learned.
For several reasons:
1. To keep me headed in the right direction. Sure, I could keep this all to myself but sharing this information publicly helps to hold me accountable and continue to try and outdo myself.
2. I want to be honest and transparent. If anyone talks about making money trading options, I think that's really the only way it should be. Wins, losses, successes and failures – the whole deal.
3. I know it inspires a lot of people to take action.
You can access previous portfolio results via the links below:
Portfolio Results
Iron Condors and Credit Spreads were a poor performer for the first time in a while. The rest of my trading was pretty light.
Important Events in May
May was my first losing month since August 2011, primarily due to one trade in GDX. For the month I was -$3,340.25 for a return of -2.39%. During the same period, the S&P 500 moved from 1378.53 to 1295.22 for a return of -6.04%, so at least I outperformed the market, but that is a small consolation. For the year I am +2.79% versus +2.99% for the S&P 500. After 5 months of the year, I am a bit behind my goal of 1-2% per month so I need to pick up my game over the next few months.
My RUT monthly iron condor continues to do well, with a profit of $1,714 this month. Can't remember the last time I had a loss on this trade.
An AAPL iron condor was looking really good, until I got too aggressive and rolled the puts higher which turned a $650 profit into a $450 loss. This was particularly disappointing as the entry point initially was near perfect as implied volatility hit 45% and then dropped to 30% a few days later.
The main culprit for my poor performance in May was a GDX Bull Put Spread that lost $4,611. My entry point was pretty good I think and I would enter the same trade again based on those conditions. I entered on 4/26 following 2 bullish candles out of the last 3 on increasing volume and oversold levels on the main indicators. There were a couple of good days and I was sitting on a small profit, then it was all downhill from there. I adjusted the trade by rolling down the strikes but eventually I hit my point of max pain and had to walk away from the trade based on my risk management rules. My exit was within a few hours of the eventual bottom and I even said at the time that "while I do feel that a capitulation bottom is imminent, with the market acting incredibly weak, risk management and capital preservation has to now be the focus". Sure enough, GDX bottomed and has been rallying ever since. At the time, markets were incredibly weak and there was a lot of talk of another flash crash.
This trade did affect me psychologically, but I was able to bounce back after a day or two. I was pretty impressed with my ability to pick the exact bottom (sarcasm), but at the end of the day the risks of holding the position overnight were too high. My delta was getting very high and another big overnight gap down would have been pretty disastrous. While unfortunate, I still feel getting out was the right decision and thankfully I have made back all of the losses so far in June (check back in a few weeks for the June results).
I appreciate you taking the time to stop by and read my articles and results. If you have any questions, please email me at email@example.com.
Here's to your ultimate success!

If a key goal of copywriting is to convey meaning quickly, then it's important to write with clarity. Mistakes and ambiguity slow the reader down. Here are 15 copywriting issues that I see often.
Which do you want – more hits to your website or more customers for your business? One doesn't automatically lead to the other.
Sales-focused website content is only relevant to customers during that tiny, tiny window when they are actually buying what you sell. To get them to engage with you the rest of the time requires an objective understanding of what really motivates them.
"Labrow Marketing didn't give us a good website – it gave us a great website. People now find us and our jobs on search engines and the site is contributing to our business growth." Nick Bate, Blue Eskimo
"I believe Labrow Marketing is one of a very rare breed of companies which have the ability to grasp an understanding of a business and its market and convert that into common sense and pragmatic marketing collateral that really works." Andy Parker, Carpenter Oak & Woodland
"We found Labrow Marketing to be a breath of fresh air. He got to grips with things very quickly, was able to act with the minimum of direction and always came up with the goods. He demonstrated an ability to understand our business from a commercial perspective and translate that into very effective marketing. He was responsive and always had an eye on quality." Peter Sherry, chief executive, National Skills Academy for Logistics
"Peter Labrow is a real pleasure to work with. He is extremely thorough and always delivers high quality ideas and end-products. His knowledge of marketing is a real asset to any business, both in the short and long term." Kelly Norris, Stratum
"Peter Labrow has been providing us with our marketing for almost a decade. He is able to work with the minimum of steering and comes up with the goods every time." Bill Walker, QA
"Peter Labrow listens and understands quickly – both technically and as a marketer. He is not afraid to question or challenge what we want to do (but does it very politely and really makes you think)." Catherine Williams, St Ann's Hospice
"Peter brings an extraordinary ability to deliver a highly effective solution to a brief, combined with exceptional strategic and practical insight into the opportunities and business impact. A straight talker with a sharp wit and zest for life and people, Peter adds a lot of professionalism and fun to our projects." Miles Corbett, Transition Associates
"Peter Labrow provides the kind of experience that is missing with a lot of today's Web kiddie designers. He's been building websites for years and has worked with some high-profile companies. If you want great Web design with a lot of marketing input, Peter's your man!" John Lawton, Harlequin Training Solutions
