Windows 7 Professional 32-bit
Backing Up
My friend was showing off on his Mac the otherday and showed me something that I was impressed with, time machine. I was amazed how it constantly backed up the computer and how you was able to go back in time and are able to restore it to a certain time in the past. I was therefore wondering if there was a Windows alternative, as I have been looking online and have found nothing and was wondering if anyone out there knows if such a product exists and is it worth it?

There are such applications out there but historically they have consumed so much resources whilst they continually read/write to the HDD that they have been abandoned.
Take the old 'GoBack' program. Used it once for a short time and it came straight off.
I just rely on SyncToy now to backup my changed/new 'data' hourly.

You can change your System Restore options quite easily. Just program frequent Restore Points at regular intervals, and you essentially have (almost) the same thing.

Windows 7 Ultimate x64
The Acronis True Image software offers something called "non-stop backup", which is very similar I believe to what Apple does with Time Capsule. While I own True Image, I simply create images when I want them, versus letting the software run constantly and keep me backed up.

I just got my NAS today, and I got Acronis True Image OEM (on the disk it says Acronis True Image V1.0)......will it be any good, or fairly limited?

In this paper we investigate the use of 'Generic Types' as design patterns to assist in the specification of planning domains. Current planning technology uses induced patterns discovered in a domain specification to speed up plan creation. We argue that such generic types can also be used to help a domain author to develop a design for a domain at specification time using concepts at a much higher level of abstraction than is normally provided by domain specification languages.

Well, after the excellent response to my first Cool and Strange Music article, I have decided to make this a once a month regular column. I figure this way, I can never ever run out of something to write about as there will always be cool and strange music as long as the sun rises from the east and their are bizarros in our midst.
Many people who did take my recommendations for CDs and actually bought them all wrote to me to say, "Thanks." In fact, not a single one complained that I recommended a "turkey." So today's CDs all carry the "Mike (in Tokyo) Rogers guaranty of quality."™
I've also decided to open up the "airwaves" to new artists who sent me their music and asked me to recommend it — if I liked it. And I sure got a winner this time! So if you are an artist and want me to review your music — Send me an e-mail!
Not only have I used my very well trained (and worn out) ear to find bits of gold that deserve a place in your CD collection, but every CD I have recommended here today has been approved by my kid, Wray, using the scientific methodology of the "Baby-o-Meter."™
If I play a tune and Wray likes it and smiles, well then you know you've got a winner. He just giggles and bounces around the room whenever I play Perrey-Kingsley!
Another concern this time through our adventures in fine listening will be the availability of finding the CDs on-line through Amazon.com. Some people mentioned that they went to their local CD-O-RAMA super store and were not able to find the recommended CDs. Of course not! These CDs are only for those interested in Cool and Strange Music — Top 40 Hit-Parade-Of-Hell fans need not apply! This music is for only those who want to be above the riff-raff and wish to find aural bliss as well as impress their friends with their musical finesse.
In today's article, besides recommending cool music I will also be telling you some of the secrets of the lame and famous rock bands that disgrace the airwaves. Today I'm slagging off Aerosmith. Why? Why not? They deserve the rotten raspberry as much as the next guy!
My first highly recommended CD is:
Robert Drasnin was the music director for CBS television in the 1960's where he scored the music for such shows as "Lost in Space," "The Man from U.N.C.L.E.," and "The Wild, Wild West."
This album was originally released in 1959 and it is the ultimate in "Space Aged Bachelor Pad" music. Fans of Les Baxter will argue that Les was the king of "Exotica music" and I might agree. But this record stands up to the best that even Les Baxter had to offer. And the sound quality of this CD is superb! Which is one of the complaints I have about Les Baxter CDs (I hate surface noise). This CD will take you to another place in another time; relaxing on the beaches of the South Pacific without a care in the world!
Not only that, "Voodoo" is music that soothes the heart of the savage beast… Great for background music, barbecue parties, or even when you are trying to deal with heavy traffic and people with road rage… Just roll up the car window and enter the Tiki room.
Be forewarned though, this album does not come complete with glow skulls, flaming torches, a moonlit beach, and forbidden love…. You'll have to provide for that yourself.
The String Quartet Tribute to Kiss
Okay. I can already hear you now! I hate Kiss too. I have always hated Kiss. I have never even bought a single Kiss record in my life, even though they were famous when I got into college. But this CD is amazing! You can tell that the people performing on this CD are really into what they are doing. Lots of these "String Quartet Tribute" CDs are "tired" but this one really has some guts. My kid loves it. My dad, who is 75 years old, thought it was way cool. The violinist plays some awesome solos and you just know they couldn't do it justice unless they were totally into the tunes! And these guys are! I dare you to play this in the car with Grandpa and Grandma as well as your snotty 16 year old and not have them all humming along!
The String Quartet Tribute to Kiss? Yes. The rock band Kiss? No. And speaking of crappy rock bands that I dislike with a passion, let me tell you about the time I met Steven Tyler of Aerosmith. As my regular readers would know, I am an anarchist. So I don't want the government to pass any laws. But if there was a law I would agree with it would be that Heavy Metal rock bands cannot play ballads under penalty of death!… So now you know why I don't like Aerosmith.
Anyhow, I went to the Aerosmith interview dressed up as the "masked D.J." The masked D.J. wears a pro-wrestlers mask and spends his life fighting against the crime of crummy music. So when the word came out that Aerosmith were in town, you just knew that the masked D.J. had to be there.
The bands crass ruffians, I believe that they are referred to as, "Roadies/Managers" weren't going to let the masked D.J. into the room to do the interview. They were afraid that the masqueraded one would foul the mood of the "Godly ones" who were busy having their boots licked at every turn and corner. But, destiny was not to be denied.
When I, er, the Masked D.J. finally weaseled his way into the room, the interview started. The Aerosmith guys didn't know what to make of this entire affair. But I quickly put their minds to ease when I said:
"Oh I go back with you guys. I'm a fan from way back when… Since high school, I've been an Aerosmith fan! Oh yeah. I just love you guy's music! Wow! Rock and Roll all night!" (That's a song by their rivals, "Kiss.") And I began to sing, "I wanna rock and roll all night. And party everyday. I wanna rock and roll all night. And par—ty everyday!"
I started playing the air-guitar and asking the group to sing along. They just sat there stone cold, quite unamused, and staring at me. The lead singer, Stevie Tyler, was mad.
"Hey dude, what's your problem?" I said. The record company people and the promoters were all in a near panic.
Things got better when I asked them which guy was the cat? Which guy had the star on his eye? Then the bassist said, "I was the cat!" And that was the cue for the rock gods that all was okay.
Aerosmith started singing the Kiss song "Rock and Roll all Night" for me. I had prevailed. The interview was a success.
The String Quartet Tribute to Garbage
Yeah, yeah I know what you're thinking… A string quartet tribute to Garbage!? But really, Garbage is the name of a kind of famous British rock band. Now why am I recommending this CD? Well, because these versions of the original songs are really great and also, because anyone who likes strings will enjoy this whether they know the originals or not. Garbage makes quite melodious music in this day and age of noisy rock and roll. Never heard of Garbage? Well that's because they're not as trashy as the top 10! Grandpa & Grandma will dig it big time. The baby-o-meter scores a huge smile every time!
Jean Jaques Perrey / Moog Sensations
Jean Jaques Perrey is 1/2 of Perrey-Kingsley and I can't say enough about this fantastic artist. Seriously, I have never met anyone in my entire life who didn't like this kind of music. It's like being a kid in a candy store. Even though you've probably heard a few of these songs before, this CD will take you back to the days when you were a six-year-old kid shopping in a candy store with your mom. Really! Imagine holding hands with mom and looking at all the wonderful colors of the world! That's what this music is like. Just perfect for the parents to teach the kids that classical music doesn't have to be boring! By the way, grab this CD while you can because Jean Jaques Perrey is now 85 years old — And he won't be around for too much longer!
Slim Cessna's Auto Club / Always Say Please & Thank You
I generally hate today's country music with a passion too, but this is different. Easy to listen to and the lyrics are quite funny and romantic. Even if you just throw this CD on for background music, you won't be disappointed. Slim Cessna offers that slow, take-it-easy beat and rhythm that is what once was country music's claim to fame. Rockers will enjoy this as well as lovers of the true blue deep South. Makes my mouth just water for some grits and gravy. Will it become a top 10 Country music chart hit? No way…. It's just too damned good for that!
Bruce Springsteen / Born in the USA
I guess this is as good a place as any to give you a run-down of my checkered past as well as my qualifications for recommending CDs. I am proud to claim that I am the only radio personality in Japan to have been fired from every major radio station in Tokyo at least once. Some of them have fired me more than once. And one station has fired me three times!
Most people wouldn't admit to being fired. But I'm proud of it. Why? Well if you've ever heard just how bad the radio stations are here in Japan, you might either want to hang yourself or just settle for getting "canned."
Stations in Japan broadcast the most incredibly idiotic droll you've ever heard. Yes, I know stations in America are pretty bad too. But this is where Japan has America beat. American radio stations, and American "pop music" in general, can only aspire to be what Japanese pop radio has already become: Dum — That's spelled correctly, d-u-m. It's dumber than dumb.
Here's some typical hard hitting interview questions that are asked by Japanese interviewers to rock stars from the west:
"What is your favorite color? What is your favorite food?" Or;
"Do you like Japan?" Or;
"What kind of girls do you like?"
Don't think that I'm making this kind of stuff up either. These are real questions that most Japanese interviewers ask — And these people can ask these questions with a straight face.
So you know that if I keep getting fired and then re-hired, I must be doing something right!
Mike Perlowin / West Side Story
This CD came to me from one of the readers of LewRockwell.com. When he first wrote to me and told me he played the pedal steel guitar I was, well, unimpressed. He asked if he could send the CD to me and, me being an extremely nice guy, I said, "Okay."
I get over one hundred CDs sent to me every month from various record companies here in Japan. And I'm not exaggerating when I say that 99.9% of them are junk (I usually keep the CD boxes and throw the CDs away). So when Mike's CD arrived in the mail, I sighed and thought, "Oh well, he went through all the trouble sending it to me, might as well listen to it once…"
And what a surprise I got! This CD is great! Mike does something very special with the Leonard Bernstein and Stephen Sondheim musical, "West Side Story." You have never heard pedal steel guitar like this! You have never heard the "West Side Story" like this either!
The entire album just flows. I was chuckling and singing along to every tune on the CD. In fact, I haven't been able to get that "Jet Song" outta my head for these last two weeks. What a find this CD is! A true diamond in the rough.
And it's not just me who thinks this is a fantastic piece of musical artistry! Mike has gotten some rave reviews for this CD and has even wrangled his way into having Tower Records independently carry this item!
Now I know just how hard it is to get a store like Tower Records to carry an independent item. Why do I know this? Well, several years ago, when Tower Records Asia ran their own record label, I was the guy in charge of it. On paper, the only person above me was the president of Tower Records Asia, a very nice guy by the name of Keith Cahoon.
Keith taught me all the ins and outs of music retailing so I know that it is nearly impossible to get the biggest record chain-store in the world to carry your product if you are not with a major label. But the Tower folks can recognize a masterpiece when they hear one — They should; they're professionals! I just can't say enough about Mike Perlowin's "West Side Story." Buy this CD now and be the first on your block to find what just might be the best CD this year! Five stars!
Prefuse 73 / One Word Extinguisher
I'm recommending this CD today for those of you who have a bit of adventure in your hearts. I can't really categorize this album in any genre besides the ambiguous term "progressive music." I do know that this album is stocked in some stores in the instrumental, electronic hip hop section. But I can't really figure out why. I suppose it's because the brains behind this work is a young guy named Scott Herren. I met Scott once and he has moved out of the United States and into Spain so that he can "get the vibe of the old country." And he has it here on this record. There are some incredibly beautiful tracks on this album (like "Storm Returns") that I cannot classify as anything other than "modern electronic classical music." I think that if you like Wendy Carlos with a bit of an uptempo flair, then Prefuse 73 would be a refreshing surprise. This album goes from jazz, classical, even a smooth jazzy Hip-Hop "after hours" lounge sound — And I don't usually like Hip Hop, by the way. But I love this.
I'll bet everyone in the family who wants to hear something new will find this a more than satisfying record. Prefuse 73 is true genius.
This is the soundtrack for the 1962 double Oscar winning movie, "Hatari" starring John Wayne.
Everyone will love such standard classics as "Baby Elephant Walk" and "Your Father's Feathers." In fact, I think "Baby Elephant Walk" was one of the first songs I ever liked when I was a small boy. I was quite surprised to find this album available on CD as I saw an LP of this disc at a garage sale for $75 dollars one time! But leave it to the British to re-issue this classic. If you are unfamiliar with this soundtrack, then I promise you that you will love it from first listen. If you have heard this already, then you know what a treasure this CD is. This disc has been remastered with the original sleeve design.
And, just in case the little ones don't even want to give this CD a chance, throw on the "Theme From the Pink Panther" by Henry Mancini first. The kids will all say, "Oh! The Pink Panther? I love this music!" And when they do, you've got them! If it's raining or cold outside, play the CD. Everyone will immediately get hooked — After that you just reel 'em in!
Well, that's all for this months Cool and Strange Music. Don't forget that Christmas is just around the corner! Don't waste time, gasoline, and money by going to the shopping mall at the last minute and fighting with the crowds (when you wind up buying something you don't really want anyway!) Buying through Amazon.com is anywhere between $4 to $5 cheaper per CD and, if you order more than $25 dollars at once, you'll get free shipping!
As a good friend of mine would say, "That's better than swallowing a piece of un-cooked spaghetti sideways!" How can you beat a deal like that?
They say, "It's the thought that counts," right? So put some thought into it this year, buy some really tasteful music for you and yours and spend a relaxing Christmas season avoiding the rush.
By the way, I gave my 16-year-old daughter, who is a hard-core Kiss fan the "String Quartet Tribute to Kiss" for her birthday. At first she didn't want to listen to it. But a little coaxing from me and now she likes it! In fact she plays it while studying because since it is a smooth, relaxing instrumental album, she says it doesn't interfere with her concentration!
Score one for Daddy and the String Quartet!
Finally, I'd like to request that those of you who do themselves a favor and try out some of this music to drop me a line and let me know what you thought of today's picks!
Mike (in Tokyo) Rogers [send him mail] was born and raised in the USA and moved to Japan in 1984. He has worked as an independent writer, producer, and personality in the mass media for nearly 30 years.

Ottawa's top two tailbacks Michael Baer and Dexter Hayes missed Saturday's homecoming game against Bethany because of injuries.
Then Gene Dydell went out against Bethany with an ankle sprain. No worries.
Freshman Tanner Staats along with converted linebacker Jeremy Cabrales looked the part of starters, despite getting their first collegiate carries in Ottawa's 56-20 win over the Swedes at Peoples Bank Field.
Staats finished with 63 yards rushing on 15 attempts and scored two touchdowns. He also had a kickoff return for 57 yards. Cabrales bulldozed through the Swedes for 19 yards on eight attempts.
Kodee Wood, who has been a starter at tight end, stepped in at fullback and had three rushes.
For Staats, this was an opportunity he had been waiting on. The Paola freshman had been used at receiver until Saturday.
"I went out and worked hard and did what I could," Staats said. "It paid off."
"After the first kickoff return, it pretty much left me," he said. "It was a little bit different than I thought it would. Game speed is a lot faster than practice. Especially with our no-huddle offense. It is all on the fly."
Staats had little varsity time with just one catch for 10 yards coming into the game.
"It was a little hard because coach wanted me to learn wide receiver at the same time," Staats said. "They were putting in wide receiver and running plays. They tried to dumb it down for me. It felt great. As receiver, you don't get much [contact].
"It was exciting. I studied my playbook hard. It all felt real natural. I went out and played. The big guys opened things up nice for you."
Staats found the end zone twice.
"I have been smelling it all year," he said. "I had a chance a couple of games ago. I finally got it in varsity game."
The Ottawa offense rolled up 460 total yards, including 181 yards on the ground with the patchwork backfield.
"We were clicking," Staats said. "The running backs were reading it good. The quarterback was reading the defense. Receivers were running their routes great. When you get all the parts of the machine working together, the machine runs great. Even if some of the parts are not as great as they used to be ... if everything works together, it all falls into place."
Ottawa scored four touchdowns on six possessions in each first half. Ottawa coach Kent Kessinger began to pull the starters after scoring on the first two possessions of the second half as Ottawa built a 42-12 lead.
"At halftime we talked about what we could run," Kessinger said. "I went back to our script. Everything seemed to go pretty well for us. We were able to throw the football well, run the ball well. We did a lot of good things offensively."
The coach liked how the running backs performed.
"We had to do a little bit of piecemeal," he said. "It was really nice to see Tanner Staats run really hard and Jeremy Cabrales did some great things leading up to the hole. We were able to do motion stuff and run power game. It tells me the O-line was getting a push on things."
Shane Gimzo finished 17 of 21 passing for 230 yards and rushed for 56 yards on 12 carries in eight series. He accounted for five touchdowns (three passes and two rushing).
The Ottawa defense played up and down. Bethany's Tevis Linnebur, the conference's leading rusher, had close to 90 yards in the first quarter. He finished with 137 yards.
"He is a good running back," Ottawa defensive coordinator Josh Homolka said. "He is tough. He knows how to run the power play and counter play.
"At points, we did a good job of stopping it. We have to be more physical. We made plays when we had to.
"They have good players. Give them credit. Their offense is good enough to score points. We have to play better upfront. We gave up three drives. A bunch of drives we played well in. We have to get stops."
No. 19 Ottawa (6-2, 5-1) plays its final home game of the season 1:30 p.m. Saturday against Friends.
B — Wollenberg 1 run (kick failed).
O — Adamson 16 pass from Gimzo (Stamp kick).

Report a Problem With A Review
of Boomerang BBQ was Vermont Flatbread - Pittsburgh , PA
Complete the form below to tell us about the problematic review for Boomerang BBQ was Vermont Flatbread, which says:
"I decided to give this place another chance after a bad episode this past April, where the waitress first attempted to serve us a half glass of Great Lakes Eliot Ness (the other half was head), and it took her literally 15 minutes to get it right. Then, as someone mentioned earlier, it tasted like it'd been on tap for months - very stale. As was my Lancaster Milk Stout - we ended up walking out. Well, today a friend suggested we go to lunch there, so I reluctantly went. I passed on the beer because of my last visit, and ordered a Grilled Buffalo Chicken sandwich. Fourty-five minutes later, and 20 minutes after the rest of my table had been served, I finally got a huge piece of white hoagie bread, with two small pieces of chicken, covered in cheese and apparently buffalo sauce squirted on it. A 'sorry' from the waitress, but nothing else. I'm pretty sure it's the same waitress who couldn't pour a beer last time I went. I've been coming to this place for years with friends or my wife and raving about the pizzas, but I think this was definitely my last time. It's sadly went downhill in the past year or so."

Welcome to the first issue of the Processor Designer eUpdate Newsletter. To date, more than 100 million devices have been featuring application specific processors (ASIP) designed with Processor Designer. Processor Designer customers are involved in a wide range of application domains, deploying ASIPs for a specific reason; to meet power, performance and area goals while achieving programmability.
What's New in Processor Designer?Processor Designer follows a quarterly release schedule, with releases in March, June, September and December. These regular releases ensure new features, enhancements and bug fixes are distributed as soon as they are implemented. So, it is always a good idea to review the latest release notes.
For a Processor Designer update, please contact your local Synopsys office or contact us here.
Application Domain: Embedded VisionEmbedded vision is about extracting meaning from visual inputs. Or to quote Jeff Bier, founder of the Embedded Vision Alliance, it is about "designing machines that can see". Embedded vision applications show the key characteristics that call for application specific processors: the huge amount of data calls for high performance, the implementation as an embedded device calls for energy efficiency and the evolution of algorithms calls for programmability. Not as a surprise, Processor Designer is widely deployed in this application domain.
In January 2013, Synopsys ran a webinar titled "Implementing Embedded Vision Applications Optimized for Power, Performance and Programmability" (the recording is available online) highlighting why ASIPs are ideally suited for Embedded Vision applications.
The webinar also introduces the Vision Processor Starter Kit, which gives a head-start for the design of an Embedded Vision ASIP. The Starter Kit features a small RISC core with a C/C++ compiler, a ported OpenCV library, examples on how to build programmable accelerators, the RTL design flow and the FPGA-based rapid prototyping flow. Using the example of Canny Edge Detection (which is also included in the starter kit), the webinar demonstrates how the Vision Processor Starter Kit can be used to design an optimized programmable architecture. The Vision Processor Starter Kit is available immediately. Please contact your local Synopsys office or contact us here.

The Lyons Township High School Peaceable Schools Initiative Club recently filled more than 100 holiday baskets for needy children at the Off the Streets Club, Chicago's oldest boys and girls club.
All supplies — baskets/buckets, toys, books, art supplies, snacks — were donated by LT staff, students and community members.
"The Off the Street Club children who came to pick up the baskets were so polite and grateful." said science teacher and Peaceable Schools Initiative sponsor Carol Promisel. "It was very heart-warming to see the Lyons Township students interact with the children. There was an abundance of smiles and hugs."
The club creates a positive, comfortable, and supportive learning environment. Through improved conflict resolution and communication skills of students and staff alike, LT works together to improve the way conflict is handled in the school and community.
The Off the Street Club in West Garfield Park provides a safe, supportive environment where the neighborhood's 4- to 18-year-olds can do their homework or play computer games in the Learning Center; perform plays in the Performing Arts Center; dance, roller skate, sing, and play musical instruments; and express themselves through arts and crafts and woodshop.

A new resolve!!!!
I don't know about any of y'all, but I have been online WAY too much lately. I feel like my brain is getting mushy. Can anyone relate? Between using the internet for homeschool, finding Trim Healthy Mama recipes, and just plain old web surfing, I've been online a lot. So I've decided to start scheduling online time to limit myself and actually, hold on for this one, READING a REAL BOOK instead.
Shocker, right?
I soooo love to read!! But I've gotten out of the habit in the past few months. I do read to my girls for homeschool. We read a LOT out loud, but no "mommy books", ya know what I mean? So, starting today, I am going to read ONE book a month. I realize many of y'all are laughing at ONE book a month, but I need to set a very small goal for myself. And since I'm blogging about it, it definitely holds me accountable.
As of today, I am starting with Desperate, Hope for the Mom Who Needs to Breathe by Sarah Mae and Sally Clarkson.
OOh. Just realized this is the end of the month. Hmm. So I will have this done by the end of October. Baby steps, y'all, baby steps.
Anyone else have monthly reading goals? Anyone else NEED to read real books instead of just reading online???? Let me know and let's encourage one another!!!

9 Habits of People Who Never Have to Clean Their Homes...
I just read this over at Country Living. Hmmm I think I need to work on #2 and #3. What about you??
9 Habits of People Who Never Have to Clean Their Homes
1. They put away their clothes every night.
When you're changing into your pajamas, it might be tempting to just toss your clothes on a chair or even on the floor, but don't fall prey to that lazy trap. It takes a couple of seconds to put them in your laundry hamper or return them to your closet. You'll be thankful that you won't have to spend extra time rounding up stray socks all over your room when it's laundry day. Same could be said when you're trying on an outfit or when you've just finished doing your laundry.
2. They don't own extras.
What are you going to do with a dozen sets of sheets or five cheese graters? If you don't need it: Edit, edit, edit. You'll be saving much more space.
3. They keep a paper trail to a minimum.
It's easy to leave stacks of junk mail, delivery menus, and old newspapers on every surface of your house. Create a good filing system to save the important documents and toss the rest.
4. They wipe down every surface after use.
Let's be real, the less grime build-up, the easier it is to clean. Mildew, grease, and food stains are not a good look for your house.
5. They don't have beds piled up with too much stuff.
Sure, it's nice to have some decorative pillows and throw blankets to maintain a perfectly styled bed, but let's keep it to a minimum. The fewer steps it takes to make your bed every morning, the more likely you'll actually do it.
6. They put their shoes and coats away.
It's common for an entryway to have a shoe pile-up or for coats to be haphazardly placed on the entry bench, but it sure doesn't look tidy. Put your shoes in your closet or place a shoe rack near the door. Make sure to hang your coat as soon as you take it off.
7. They never let dishes pile up.
This one's pretty much a no-brainer, but taking a few minutes to do three or five dishes is way better than doing 15 at the end of the week.
8. They put things back where they came from.
If you do this, you won't have a precarious stack of DVDs, magazines, books, and toys on your coffee table. This habit makes the panic-filled, 5-minute clean-up before guests arrive a little better.
9. They dust and vacuum on the regular.
A few minutes of dusting or vacuuming at least 2-3 times a week will save you from doing a deep clean on the weekend when you could be relaxing.

First day of school 2014-2015
So hard to believe my girls are getting so big!! Elizabeth is in 3rd grade this year and Caroline is in PreK. And yes, we still homeschool and I still love it!! I am daily thankful that the dreams I dreamed (even as a little girl) of being a wife, mother, AND teacher have all come true. I am so blessed!!

A new way of life...
We found out about a month ago that Mr. U has type 2 diabetes. Not really a shock since his mother and his grandfather have both dealt with it. Still, however, the "it will never happen to me" syndrome did come into play a bit. :)
So armed with that news, we have set out to do research on the best way for our family to eat. We have decided that we need to cut out as many "bad" carbs as possible in hopes of bringing his blood glucose numbers down (and especially the A1C for those of y'all that know what I'm talking about). So far, so good!!! Numbers are coming down!! We just need to keep up the good work!!!
With this will come lots of new recipes to try, I am sure. I made one tonight that the girls and I LOOOOVED! Mr. U, who abhors cauliflower, said, "Well, if I HAVE to eat cauliflower, this is probably the best way". Not a glowing testimony, I know, but coming from him about cauliflower, this is HUGE!!!!
George Stella's "Mac" and Cheese
- Kosher salt, as needed, plus 1/2 teaspoon
- Vegetable oil spray
- 1 large head cauliflower, cut into small florets
- 3/4 cup heavy cream
- 2 ounces cream cheese, cut into small pieces
- 1 1/2 teaspoons Dijon mustard
- 1 1/2 cups shredded sharp Cheddar cheese, plus 1/2 cup for topping the casserole
- 1/4 cup parmesan cheese*
- 1/4 teaspoon black pepper
- 1/4 teaspoon garlic powder**
- Preheat the oven to 375°F. Bring a large pot of water to a boil, seasoning the water with salt. Spray an 8×8 baking dish with vegetable oil spray.
- Cook the cut cauliflower in the boiling water until crisp-tender, about 5 minutes.
- Drain well and pat between several layers of paper towels to dry. Transfer the cauliflower to the baking dish and set aside.
- Bring the cream to a simmer in a small saucepan and then whisk in the cream cheese and mustard, continuously whisking until smooth.
- Stir in the 1 1/2 cups of cheese, salt, pepper, and garlic powder, and whisk just until the cheese melts, about 2 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat, pour over the cauliflower, and stir all to combine.
- Top with the remaining 1/2 cup cheese and bake until browned and bubbly hot, about 15 to 20 minutes. Let cool 5 minutes before serving.
Let me say, our girls are not cutting out as many carbs as we are. They ARE eating less of the"bad" carbs, however, and more of the good!!!!
Any of y'all living with diabetes in your home? If so, PLEASE share recipes!!!
*My addition. Not in original recipe.
** I doubled the garlic powder. Original recipe calls for only 1/8 tsp.

Staying home...
Dear fellow keeper of the home,
How many days a week are you gone from home? Where do you go?
Can you stay home 5 days a week (assuming you are at church one day and running errands and getting groceries a second day) or does it drive you crazy? Do you feel like you have to go somewhere and just get out??
I am saddened these days by so many stay at home wives/mothers that say how they hate to be at home and say they get bored. (Bored? Who has TIME to be bored????) I enjoy being here in our home taking care of my family. This is exactly what I've dreamed of doing my entire life. Surely I'm not alone in this. :)
Mrs. U

Emma leaves for summer camp on Sunday. Her first time, if you don't count the two camping trips she's gone on with her school, which were short and heavily chaperoned by parent friends who were a cell phone call away. This one is 4 days, and about an hour away. A perfect starter one (for me as much as for her).
I wanted to make something for her to have while she is away (sewing also helps me with the nervous anticipation of dropping her off this weekend). After seeing Maya's travel pillow, it seemed like a great idea to make a pillowcase with some kind of surprise. Emma picked out the owl fabric, which I like more and more as I sewed it up (she didn't know what I was going to make out of it though). I made a basic slip-on pillowcase for a full sized pillow, with fold over on the open end which tucks inside. Its my favorite kind to make. (There is a pattern for one like this in Lotta Jansdotter Simple Sewing book, but really, you don't need much of a pattern if you've got a pillowcase to measure.) I trimmed the front with "E.S." initial ribbon. Because things at camp should be labeled, right?
The back has a surprise-
A stuffed Gracie, printed onto heat transfer paper, then ironed onto basic canvas, stitched around and stuffed firm. Emma's favorite friend, to snuggle with while she's away. I used the heat transfer sheets made for ink jet printers to print out Gracie's picture because that's what I had here on hand, but, I'm not thrilled with how thick and shiny it came out. (Kind of reminds me of a David Bowie t-shirt iron on I bought at the beach one year when I was in middle school, in one of those stores where you pick the iron on and pick the shirt, and they iron it on for you.) I digress... The quality is passable, but not great, and I've seen much better results with printable fabric, which I will use next time. I'm sure Ian will want one when he sees it.
I sewed a simple pocket onto the back of the pillow big enough for Gracie to fit into for carrying. I'm pretty sure she thinks I'm making this gigantic stuffed elephant with a blanket strapped to its back, a pattern we saw at fabric store the other day. So, this might be a downer for her.
I just noticed there is a project very similar to this in the new Dorm Decor book, but you crafty people really don't need instructions beyond what I've included (although this book does has some great projects inside).
I'm going to miss that girl.
Another local sewing class I wanted to let you know about (there's so many great classes right now!). My friend Katie Pedersen is teaching a "Value Quilt" Class at The Quilting Loft in Ballard. I was in there a couple of weeks ago and was so taken with the quilt sample for the class was that I came home and emailed Katie. She's teaching the class on how to make this quilt on Thursday, July 9th from 6-9pm. What nicer way to get out of the house for an evening with some girlfriends, and learn how to make this beautiful quilt? When I last heard, there were still spots in the class. Make it, and then you'll have yourself something gorgeous to sit under this winter.

Publisher's Description
This entertaining and historical story shows that the actual hero of the Thanksgiving was neither white nor Indian, but God. In 1608, English traders came to Massachusetts and captured a 12-year old Indian, Squanto, and sold him into slavery. He was raised by Christians and taught faith in God. Ten years later he was sent home to America. Upon arrival, he learned an epidemic had wiped out his entire village. But God had plans for Squanto. God delivered a Thanksgiving miracle: an English-speaking Indian living in the exact place where the Pilgrims land in a strange new world.

Security and Crime
2 campaign workers wounded in BalkhBy Zabihullah Ehsas Sep 14, 2010 - 12:04
MAZAR-I-SHARIF (PAN): Two campaign workers wounded when gunmen opened fire on their vehicle in northern Balkh province, officials said on Tuesday.
The two men worked for Abas Ibrahimzada who told Pajhwok Afghan News the incident happened in Dowlat Abad district. A driver and a campaigner were wounded , he said.
The injured were taken hospital where the driver is in critical condition, he said.
Balkh police headquarters spokesman, Sher Jan Durani, accused candidates of not alerting security forces when they travel to remote areas.
He said Ibrahimzada's campaigners did not inform the police about their visit to the district.
In Balkh, 87 candidates are standing in the September 18 election, including 14 women and four Kuchis.
Three candidates and several campaign workers have been killed across Afghanistan since the beginning of election campaign.

Tackett Named Bolts Interim Head Coach Ahead of Sockers Clash
ANAHEIM, Calif. – Jeff Tacket, who has been the Anaheim Bolts Assistant and Goalkeeper Coach since the franchise's inception in 2011, has been named Interim Head Coach for the remainder of the current PASL campaign. The appointment, which follows former Head Coach Bernie Lilavois' decision to transition to the role of General Manager, comes at a crucial time for the Bolts. The side narrowly missed out on the postseason in its inaugural season and once again finds itself outside the playoff picture after recent defeats to Turlock and Arizona.
In addition to the move, Adriano de Lima has been given more responsibility in his role as Bolts player-Assistant Coach.
"I am pleased to announce Jeff Tackett as our Interim Head Coach for the rest of the season," General Manager Lilavois said. "He has been by my side since day one with the team as an Assistant and Goalkeeper Coach and will help us have a seamless transition as we move this club forward. Jeff knows talent and knows how to get the best out of players everywhere he has coached. Now it's time for him to translate all that into the pro ranks."
Tackett, a former goalkeeper whose 20-year career was ended by a severe shoulder injury, transitioned to the sideline in 1995 and has spent time as a member of the coaching staffs at Chino High School, Santiago High School and Claremont High School. From 1996 to 2005, he was a Goalkeeper Coach and State Evaluating Coach with the Olympic Development Program, followed by a 17-year stint as Director of the Southern California School of Goalkeeping, a post he continues to hold today.
From 1997 to 1998, Tackett was the Goalkeeper Coach at Mt. San Antonio College, before becoming an Assistant and Goalkeeper Coach with the Cal Baptist women's team. He held that position until 2001, at which point he was named Co-Head Coach and Goalkeeper Coach of the men's program. After two years in that role, the former netminder was an Assistant Coach and later the Head Coach of semi-professional West Coast Soccer from 2000 to 2002, followed by a stint as the Director of Coaches and Player Development at Corona United from 2004 to 2006.
Tackett has been an Assistant and Goalkeeper Coach with Cal Poly Pomona since 2005 and took on the added role of Director of Coaching at Corona Eagles FC from 2008 to 2011.
"Having been asked to take over with the Bolts, my goal is to get the players back on track and believing that we have what it takes to fight for the title," Anaheim's new Interim Head Coach offered. "I'm very excited to step into a new role and happy to allow Bernie (Lilavois) focus all of his attention on crucial matters off the field. Both Adriano de Lima and I are entirely committed to preparing the guys for a strong second half of the season.
"We're by no means out of playoff contention, especially given that six of our remaining nine regular season games are at home. If we take care of business in our own venue, there's no reason we shouldn't get into the postseason and create enough momentum to compete for a championship."
Assistant Coach and attacking ace De Lima welcomes the recent shuffling of the deck.
"I believe these moves are for the good of the organization," he said. "We thought the attendance at our home opener was alright, but then it dropped off instead off increasing for the second game, in addition to the operational issues we had. Those are problems we absolutely have to fix, and Bernie has made the right decision in dedicating all of his attention to that cause."
Having observed Jeff Tackett's work as the Bolts Goalkeeper Coach for more than a full season, the 31-year-old De Lima welcomes the club's decision to promote one of its own.
"Jeff is very easygoing and soft-spoken in dealing with the players," he said. "At the same time he's extremely organized and honest, and he truly has a plan in place for everyone on the roster. That combination makes him an excellent Head Coach. I'm excited for him and the team."
Tackett will face a stern test in his very first match at the helm, as the Bolts travel to take on rivals and defending champions San Diego Sockers tomorrow night at VV Casino Arena. The Sockers are currently riding a 44-game win streak, which is a record in U.S. professional sports history.
"With the players that we have, we definitely have a fighting chance," Anaheim's newly appointed Interim Head Coach assessed. "We gave San Diego a run for their money for good stretches of our games against them last season, but we had a tendency to drop off temporarily, which is enough for a talented team like that to pull away. The goal has to be to play smart, remain focused and stick to our game plan in all four quarters."
Like Tackett, player-Assistant Coach De Lima likes his side's chances in the meeting with the mighty Sockers.
"I'm extremely excited and motivated because I always see change as an opportunity," said the Brazilian. "We now have the chance to bounce back from the recent losses by ending San Diego's streak. That will be a major accomplishment for whichever team manages to do so. If it's us, I really think it will bring back that positivity we all had early in the season."
In addressing the bigger picture, De Lima continued, "I look forward to my expanded role as an Assistant Coach. So far, my primary job has been to help Bernie Lilavois carry out his ideas. Now I will need to take more responsibility, since I have a lot of experience in the indoor game and really know all of our current players as well some of the guys we're looking to bring on."
The confidence displayed by De Lima and Tackett is shared by Lilavois, who has been working tirelessly behind the scenes to create a truly memorable gameday experience for the December 27 home clash with the Mexico Toros.
"I have all the confidence in the world in Jeff and Adriano, and I know the players will give it their all for them on the field while I focus on turning things around off the field," the former indoor soccer legend said. "Together we can grow the Bolts into a special franchise for our community. I look forward to a bright future and hope for a warm welcome from the fans for Jeff and the Boys at Thursday's home game against Mexico.
After taking on hosts San Diego tomorrow, the Bolts will face the visiting Toros on Thursday, December 27, with both matches set to kick off at 7 p.m. PT. Tickets start at $12 and may be purchased through Ticketmaster or the Anaheim Convention Center Arena box office. Parking is free. For more information, please call the Bolts front office at 714-321-9898 or the Anaheim Convention Center Arena at 714-765-8980.

'John's March' around Infineon raises $15k
Posted By Sun News On January 10, 2012 @ 1:28 pm In News | Comments Disabled
The sound of revving engines was replaced by marching feet on Saturday, Jan. 7, as more than 400 people turned out for "John's March Against Gastric Cancer" at Infineon Raceway.
Nearly $15,000 was raised at the inaugural event, which was dedicated to raising money and awareness for the Gastric Cancer Fund [1]. The event was held in honor of John Cardinale, a long-time employee at Infineon Raceway, who was diagnosed with gastric cancer in March of last year.
[2]All attendees enjoyed a symbolic 'march' around the 12-turn, 2.52-mile road course under sunny skies and unseasonably warm weather. Participants ranged from competitive runners to families, including children on bikes and strollers, and even a few four-legged friends.
"This cause is so close to my heart, and it's amazing to have a great event to support this need," said Novato's Judy Riccio, who lost her husband John to gastric cancer in 2008. "When I lost my husband, they didn't know much about this disease, but it's amazing what progress they've made in three years. It felt good to be here today, and I felt that every step I was taking was getting us closer to a cure. It gives me hope."
[3]The Gastric Cancer Fund is the first organization dedicated to helping fight gastric (stomach) cancer. Although it is one of the most common cancers worldwide, it is one of the most underfunded forms of cancer research. Through education, research, support and advocacy, the organization is dedicated to improving the lives of those affected by gastric cancer.
"I'm really honored to be here and to be associated with this event," said JP Gallagher, founder and chairman of the board of the Gastric Cancer Fund. "I'm grateful to John and everyone at Infineon Raceway for all they've done not only for John, but for Gastric Cancer research and for our organization. Without their support we wouldn't be able to do what we're doing today, so I'm incredibly inspired and really honored to be here."
[4]Each participant received a T-shirt and enjoyed light refreshments, provided by Levy Restaurants, following the march.
Donations can still be made in honor of this event [5].
Please be sure to note that this gift is in honor of "John's March Against Gastric Cancer."

Australian gets 70 months for Wyoming bank heistJuly 11, 2013 @ 8:43 pm
CHEYENNE, Wyo. (AP) - A federal judge in Wyoming handed down a nearly six-year prison sentence to an Australian man who says he robbed a Jackson bank so he could give money to the homeless.
U.S. District Judge Alan B. Johnson sentenced Corey Donaldson, 40, to serve 70 months for bank robbery.
He also said Donaldson likely will be deported after his prison term.
Representing himself at trial this spring, Donaldson likened himself to Robin Hood, saying he was justified in taking over $140,000 from the U.S. Bank on Dec. 31 because he used much of the cash to save the lives of homeless people.
"You haven't lived until you have served others in such a way that they can never pay you back," Donaldson told the judge on Thursday.
He also apologized for terrifying the bank manager by falsely claiming the bank building was rigged with explosives.
Donaldson was arrested on Jan. 22 in Utah. Officers recovered more than $30,000 from Donaldson and in a room he had rented in an upscale hotel. At trial, officers testified they found $11,000 stuffed into envelopes and addressed to Donaldson's relatives.
Donaldson addressed the judge for more than an hour Thursday, spanning subjects ranging from a family yachting accident when he was a teenager to his plans to study literature after prison. He said he came to the U.S. after marrying a U.S. citizen and stayed, sometimes without a home, after a divorce.
Donaldson argued that banks racked up record profits while forcing people into homelessness through foreclosures. He said his father lost the family home in Australia in a bank default years ago and once considered suicide as a means of providing for 10 children from life insurance proceeds.
Prosecutor Todd Shugart emphasized that Donaldson was prepared to ship money to family overseas. "His claim of carrying out this act to benefit the poor is simply disingenuous," Shugart said.
In pronouncing sentence, Johnson said the bank robbery was "fueled by deceit." He cited a pre-sentencing report that stated that Donaldson had written to publishers trying to drum up interest in a book about the robbery.
Johnson said he expects Donaldson will be deported back to Australia after serving his sentence.
"I don't view what will happen to him as an exile in this matter, but a return home," the judge said.

By Ben Kepes on March 29, 2012
Of late there has been a bunch of discussion about whether or not multi-currency functionality is important for SMBs.

Permanent Mission of the Republic of the Philippines to the United Nations
Philippine Statement
H.E. Bayani S. Mercado
Deputy Permanent Representative of the
Permanent Mission of the Philippines to the United Nations
43rd Session of the Commission for Social Development
9-18 March 2005
Mr. Chairman,
Along with the other speakers, I wish to express my delegation's
appreciation to the Chair and the bureau for their vibrant leadership
in the preparations for and discussions in this meeting. My delegation
continues to hope that the re-commitment to the core principles and
strategies for social development will reverberate into tangible results
-- nationally and internationally-- at the soonest.
At this juncture, we have heralded so many times that genuine development is a people-centered development. This can mean no less than effective cohesion between economic and social policies which, for the Philippines, translates to the pursuit of pro-poor growth. Over the period 2001-2004, we have more aggressively implemented policies to address the most critical threats to macroeconomic stability and social development. Even while external and structural challenges are present, we continue to work towards durable peace and a stable economic foundation as we pursue development within the overall framework of strengthening human capital by improving basic social services, enhancing participation of all, particularly the vulnerable, and improving governance. These elements, in essence, form the framework of the Philippines' anti-poverty efforts. At the international level, we hope that, through these efforts, we can do our share in achieving the goals of the Millennium Summit, primarily in halving the number of people in extreme poverty by 2015.
Mr. Chairman,
In order to truly achieve a "society for all", we believe that not only do we need to recognize the rights of different sectors of society, but we also need to empower them as an essential requirement. Enabling them to be productive members of the community through the promotion and facilitation of employment will render them as active drivers of their own development. The Philippines has pursued social integration of the disadvantaged and vulnerable groups by ensuring that policies are complemented with the necessary programs and projects. Our interventions continue to be guided by following approaches: the strategic participation of local government units; integrated delivery of basic social services; targeting of the depressed areas; the strengthening of cooperation with civil society; and the emphasis on the family as the center of social development. The youth comprise a considerable percentage of the Philippine population so that a great part of socio-economic programs are aimed both at protecting their rights and providing them with the environment and capacity to participate productively in society.
The movement of people, as a driver and result of globalization, behooves us to give a particularly strong focus on the value of migration in development based on the effective recognition and protection of the human rights of migrants. In this respect, true promotion of social integration should include paying attention to the human side of migrants, rather than merely looking at them as a faceless phenomenon.
Mr. Chairman,
The reality of resources is a challenge that we continue to face. As we recommit ourselves to the goals of the Summit, we recognize that we would need to be more creative in mobilizing the needed resources. The Philippines continues to seriously strive towards the 20/20 Initiative, reflecting our sincere aspiration to achieve social development goals. We ensure that basic social services are given the necessary support, even while pressures requiring increased fiscal prudence presently challenge us. We therefore call on the international community to revisit this Initiative and to explore new instruments and means of mobilizing resources if only to make certain that we meet our targets before 2015. Relatedly, we urge all concerned bodies, in the context of all types of development assistance, to put social development in the center of all their strategies.
Mr. Chairman,
The different plans and programs of action that we have successfully established for the different sectors of society provide us with the strategic approach to ensuring that the rights of all people are realized and that everyone can participate in the development process. However, only through a comprehensive approach to the issue of development that seamlessly synthesizes the economic and social dimensions can we ever hope to have something that works for people's lives and well being.
I thank you.

|26 If thou at all take thy neighbour's raiment to pledge , thou shalt deliver it unto him by that the sun goeth down :
|26 If you take your neighbor's cloak as a pledge, return it to him by sunset,
|27 For that is his covering only, it is his raiment for his skin: wherein shall he sleep ? and it shall come to pass, when he crieth unto me, that I will hear ; for I am gracious.
|27 because his cloak is the only covering he has for his body. What else will he sleep in? When he cries out to me, I will hear, for I am compassionate.
