Great sequel for Garfield's defense
When we reviewed Garfield Defense time ago, we were able to highlight how faithful graphics were to Davis's work, but how far it all was from Garfield's essence. Garfield is neither The Simpsons nor Family Dad, so there's no need to put aliens or depending on which puns into the story.
Anyway, here's GD2. When possible, characters and design have been improved from its prelude, so any Garfield fan will be pleased with the result: watching at Garfield and his friends to move and act is gorgeous, much better than in any other defense game, because we're talking about a defense game, keep that in mind. You have to invoke troops to assault enemy's base while defending yours.
This game is also more ambitious than the other, as it takes the action outside Jon's house and spreads it all over the world, from New York to the North Pole. A lot of secondary characters from the animated series enter the scene, and fun special moves and weapons.
Therefore, is it a good defense game? Yes, it is, much when you enjoy the online and unseen so far player vs player mode. Will it like to Garfield's fans? Yes, it will. In the end, it will.
Garfield is back, now with multiplayer! Join the fat lazy cat in this epic struggle against ridiculous alien overlords! Only Garfield can protect the world from the menace of the Food Invaders; these nasty aliens did not take kindly to their defeat in the first installment of this series and now they're targeting the whole world! So begins Garfield's Defense 2: The Food Invaders Strike Back!
Get ready for another alien-whacking adventure - FREE! Garfield's Defense 2: The Food Invaders Strike Back is brought to you by Web Prancer, the people behind the original Garfield's Defense, Feed Garfield, Garfield's Diner, and other top-rated Garfield games.
After getting crushed by Garfield and the rest of the Arbuckle household in the first awesome game, the Food Invaders withdrew to plan revenge on our little blue planet. The aliens abandoned their plans to capture Jon's fridge, and now plot to take over all food, everywhere. It is a dark time, and the fate of our planet hangs by a thread. The aliens are descending on New York, Paris… even Santa Claus in his North Pole retreat is not safe!
But the Food Invaders must first overcome our heroic defenders: choose to play as Garfield, Odie, or Nermal, and command legions of characters from the beloved Garfield comics including Wade the duck, the sheep Lanolin, Orson the pig and more!
Arm yourself with new skills and new game mechanics to wage cartoonish battle against the Food Invaders in three gorgeous locations around the world! Garfield's Defense 2: The Food Invaders Strike Back combines the best elements of action, siege, tower, strategy and defense games with colorful graphics straight out of the original comic.
New in this sequel: challenge your friends to a battle over the last slice of pizza in the new player-versus-player mode! Also: three new locations, new skills, new items, and Liz, Jon's girlfriend! All this and more in one delicious free game!
- Play as Garfield, Odie, or Nermal
- A challenging mix of tower-defense, siege, and strategy mechanics
- Amazing graphics, straight out of the Garfield comics
- Rout the aliens in 60 different levels at New York, Paris, and even Santa's workshop
- Enlist the aid of Garfield's friends from U.S. Acres
- Pummel the food invaders with a variety of wacky special moves
- Obtain and upgrade a wide array of weapons to help you beat back the Food Invaders

Wednesday 10 April 1661
In the morning to see the Dockhouses. First, Mr. Pett's, the builder, and there was very kindly received, and among other things he did offer my Lady Batten a parrot, the best I ever saw, that knew Mingo so soon as it saw him, having been bred formerly in the house with them; but for talking and singing I never heard the like. My Lady did accept of it.
Then to see Commissioner Pett's house, he and his family being absent, and here I wondered how my Lady Batten walked up and down with envious looks to see how neat and rich everything is (and indeed both the house and garden is most handsome), saying that she would get it, for it belonged formerly to the Surveyor of the Navy.
Then on board the Prince, now in the dock, and indeed it has one and no more rich cabins for carved work, but no gold in her.
After that back home, and there eat a little dinner. Then to Rochester, and there saw the Cathedrall, which is now fitting for use, and the organ then a-tuning. Then away thence, observing the great doors of the church, which, they say, was covered with the skins of the Danes,1 and also had much mirth at a tomb, on which was "Come sweet Jesu," and I read "Come sweet Mall," &c., at which Captain Pett and I had good laughter.
So to the Salutacion tavern, where Mr. Alcock and many of the town came and entertained us with wine and oysters and other things, and hither come Sir John Minnes to us, who is come to-day to see "the Henery," in which he intends to ride as Vice-Admiral in the narrow seas all this summer. Here much mirth, but I was a little troubled to stay too long, because of going to Hempson's, which afterwards we did, and found it in all things a most pretty house, and rarely furnished, only it had a most ill access on all sides to it, which is a greatest fault that I think can be in a house.
Here we had, for my sake, two fiddles, the one a base viall, on which he that played, played well some lyra lessons, but both together made the worst musique that ever I heard.
We had a fine collacion, but I took little pleasure in that, for the illness of the musique and for the intentness of my mind upon Mrs. Rebecca Allen.
After we had done eating, the ladies went to dance, and among the men we had, I was forced to dance too; and did make an ugly shift. Mrs. R. Allen danced very well, and seems the best humoured woman that ever I saw. About 9 o'clock Sir William and my Lady went home, and we continued dancing an hour or two, and so broke up very pleasant and merry, and so walked home, I leading Mrs. Rebecca, who seemed, I know not why, in that and other things, to be desirous of my favours and would in all things show me respects.
Going home, she would needs have me sing, and I did pretty well and was highly esteemed by them.
So to Captain Allen's (where we were last night, and heard him play on the harpsicon, and I find him to be a perfect good musician), and there, having no mind to leave Mrs. Rebecca, what with talk and singing (her father and I), Mrs. Turner and I staid there till 2 o'clock in the morning and was most exceeding merry, and I had the opportunity of kissing Mrs. Rebecca very often.
Among other things Captain Pett was saying that he thought that he had got his wife with child since I came thither. Which I took hold of and was merrily asking him what he would take to have it said for my honour that it was of my getting? He merrily answered that he would if I would promise to be godfather to it if it did come within the time just, and I said that I would. So that I must remember to compute it when the time comes.
- Traditions similar to that at Rochester, here alluded to, are to be found in other places in England. Sir Harry Englefield, in a communication made to the Society of Antiquaries, July 2nd, 1789, called attention to the curious popular tale preserved in the village of Hadstock, Essex, that the door of the church had been covered with the skin of a Danish pirate, who had plundered the church. At Worcester, likewise, it was asserted that the north doors of the cathedral had been covered with the skin of a person who had sacrilegiously robbed the high altar. The date of these doors appears to be the latter part of the fourteenth century, the north porch having been built about 1385. Dart, in his "History of the Abbey Church of St. Peter's, Westminster," 1723 (vol. i., book ii., p. 64), relates a like tradition then preserved in reference to a door, one of three which closed off a chamber from the south transept — namely, a certain building once known as the Chapel of Henry VIII., and used as a "Revestry." This chamber, he states, "is inclosed with three doors, the inner cancellated, the middle, which is very thick, lined with skins like parchment, and driven full of nails. These skins, they by tradition tell us, were some skins of the Danes, tann'd and given here as a memorial of our delivery from them." Portions of this supposed human skin were examined under the microscope by the late Mr. John Quekett of the Hunterian Museum, who ascertained, beyond question, that in each of the cases the skin was human. From a communication by the late Mr. Albert Way, F.S.A., to the late Lord Braybrooke. ↩

Orange Blossom Organic Extract
- Botanical Name: Citrus aurantium var. amara
- Origin: Egypt
- Process: Organic Extract
- Plant Part: Flowers
- Cultivation: Cultivated, Certified Organic
- Use: Aromatherapy / Natural Perfumery
- Note: Middle
- Aroma: Deep, earthy floral
- Certificate of Analysis
Our Orange Blossom Organic Extract is extracted via organic solvents, with no hexane. This makes the oil appropriate for perfumery, skincare and also flavoring applications. It has the wonderful aroma of orange blossoms accompanied by a unique earthiness.
The blossoms come from the bitter orange tree, a resilient evergreen which belongs to the Rutaceae family, and are the same flowers that are used to distill Neroli essential oil and extract absolutes. The essential oil, absolutes and organic extracts are all produced using different processes, thus rendering oils with somewhat different aromas and textures.
The scent of orange blossoms has been revered for centuries and is very popular for use in fine natural perfumery as a fixative and for the way it beautifully complements other citrus notes, florals, spices and woods. Although a little lighter in aroma, this specialty oil can be used in place of Orange Blossom Absolute whenever the need for an organic and hexane-free alternative is desired.
If you are unsure of which Neroli/Orange Blossom to order, we offer a sampler pack so you can experience each one prior to committing to purchase.
Aromatic Profile: Rich aroma with deep earthy undertones and green notes.
Appearance: Amber-colored liquid.
Use: In fine natural perfumery and skincare.
Blending Suggestions: Add a few drops to add a deep, earthy floral note to your blends. This extract is soluble in fixed oils only. It is not soluble in alcohol or alcohol based perfumes.
Blends Well With: Ambrette Seed, Amyris, Bergamot, Black Pepper, Clove, Jasmine, Neroli, Myrrh, Patchouli, Sandalwood, Nagarmotha, Rose, Tuberose.
Safety Considerations: Dilute before using. A patch test should be performed before use for those with sensitive skin.
Expiration: This extract has a shelf life of 1-2 years if stored in a cool, dark place.
Customer Reviews for Orange Blossom Organic Extract
- The queen of the orange blossoms Review by BEAJ
- I sampled a few of the Eden Neroli and Orange Blossoms. I would say without a doubt that this is the best, the most fragrant and flowery with the real scent of fresh orange flowers. Gorgeous worn as a perfume on its own. (Posted on 10/20/13)
- beautiful with no harsh tones Review by Bernadette
I too have been searching for the best neroli and orange blossom without the harsh notes, and this extract is really beautiful. Light at first but with great tenacity in blends. Soft, sweet, and more like the blossoms I've smelled than any other orange flower eo or ab I've tried.
(Posted on 8/30/13)
- Very Lovely! Review by Annette
Good Orange Blossom oils are very hard to find, especially the absolutes do often have a harsh and pungent aspect.
Neroli does mostly project the fresh but not the more carnal aspects of the blossoms.
Actually I was looking for years for something that covers the complete spectrum of true Orange Blossoms and I was pleasantly surprised with this wonderful extract.
It has a lovely sumptuous and soft aroma and good tenacity that makes it definitely worth it to spend the $$$. Highly recommended! (Posted on 3/27/13)

Don't you hate it when you've been meaning to try a restaurant for a VERY long time and keep putting it off, then when you try it, you wish you had tried it sooner??!! That's' exactly what happened to me when my family and I tried Valencia Luncheria in Norwalk, Connecticut this past weekend. Even if you don't live in Connecticut, you may want to check out Valencia Luncheria's website, check out their extensive breakfast/lunch/dinner menu, and watch the clip of the restaurant from Diners, Drive-Ins, & Dives with Guy Fieri. They have a lot of fun and interesting things on the menu which makes it fun just to look! If you're ever in the Norwalk area I would definitely suggest making a stop!
My birthday was this past weekend, and we had planned to go out to dinner, but a sick child kept us at home that night. I didn't want the usual pizza or Chinese and as I was thinking of the possibilities I figured it may be my only opportunity to force my family to try something they probably would not agree to otherwise. Yep, I'm not embarrassed to say I was going to milk the birthday card as much as I could. I've been meaning to try Valencia Luncheria since we moved here a couple of years ago, but it just never seemed to be a good time. I really wanted to try Valencia Luncheria's lunch menu and when we called they were really nice and said they do offer their lunch menu at dinner time (just for take-out). Prices are very reasonable (especially for this area!) and they have a wide selection of food on their menu including arepas, empanadas, sandwiches, entrees, soups, desserts, etc. I've read their menu described as "Venezuelan", "Venezuelan Beach Food", "Nuevo Latino", etc. Whatever you want to call it, the food was delicious! Unfortunately, the pictures I took do not do the food justice. I had about 30 seconds to get as many pictures as I could before everyone started grabbing food!! How quickly they forgot, it was MY birthday!! So here are a few pictures of what we got…
We tried 4 savory empanadas including the Chicken Tamarillo, Chipotle Pork, Three Cheese, and Ham & Cheese. The Chicken Tamarillo was definitely our favorite but they were all delicious!
Along with our empanadas, we tried some arepas including the Pernil (Venezuelan pork roast), Butter & Cheese, and the Real Deal (Chorizo & mozzarella). The Real Deal was our favorite out of this group!
We also got an order of tostones which are fried plantains. They were huge!
There are a lot of interesting and delicious sounding sandwiches on the menu so we thought we'd try one. We ordered the Oaxaca Cheese Steak which was ancho seared strip steak, jalapeños, onions, mozzarella cheese, and tomatoes. It was a good size sandwich and yummy!! The steak was very tender, and the seasonings were great.
You can also get a few sauces with your food including their Guasacaca and Chipotle Sauces. The Guasacaca sauce tasted a lot of cilantro and vinegar. The Chipotle sauce reminded me of a spicy barbecue sauce. Both were delicious and great for dipping!
Since it was my birthday we had to get dessert, right??!! We got two sweet empanadas including one Nutella & Cream Cheese…
and our favorite the Apple & Dulce de Leche! The Nutella & Cream Cheese had a bit too much of cream cheese for me, but I loved the Apple & Dulche de Leche!
I read some good reviews about the bread pudding and thought we'd give the Chocolate Banana Bread Pudding a try. Oh my goodness, it was HUGE! Took me a few days to finish it and it was delicious as well!
Now I'm kicking myself that we didn't try this restaurant sooner! We will definitely be getting takeout again from there soon! Even my husband and kids agreed that we need to make Valencia Luncheria a regular stop! There is a lot more on the menu we want to try, not to mention, a lot of favorites from this meal we want to get again! It's going to take us a long time to get through the menu, and we're ok with that!

Oh sorry, it's not. I've blogged before about this but it's worth re-iterating how sad it is that women feel they cannot feed in public (see our survey results below), yet at the same time the funding's been pulled to help to normalise what's essentially a perfectly normal and beneficial act. So this week, we ask you to give a moment's thought to breastfeeding mums, help any friends who need help, and support the NCT and La Leche league in their efforts to support this sadly underfunded, undersupported area of new mothers' lives. In the meantime, here's a picture of Harry the youngest member of Peaks towers, having his own feed!
So the NHS in its straitened times has decided to axe National Breastfeeding Week, scheduled for 19-25 June this year. This is particularly sad for us at Peaks towers as we know from our customers how tricky and challenging women still find breastfeeding in public (particularly in England we imagine given that the government has been forced to clarify the legal situation on the back of women being thrown out of pubs and buses for feeding in public – the irony of the excuse 'because people are eating' is not lost on us).
We commissioned a survey which many of you were good enough to take the time to fill out. The salient points were that over half of you felt just ok or not at all comfortable about feeding in public, with restaurants and pubs proving the most challenging. Fear of comments or looks from strangers was the number one obstacle, with fear of exposure second. Finally, and more encouragingly, almost 90% of you felt that you grew in confidence the more you did it (and luckily for Peaks, almost 90% of you felt you would definitely or probably be more confident if you were wearing discreet specially-designed clothing.
Keep nagging the government where you can and let's put breastfeeding back on the agenda. Perhaps if Sam Cam had done it in public that might have helped! Please do comment on our Facebook page

Verizon Storm pricing revealed? or copied form 8830?
Verizon has a test site known as "testman" which previews different parts of the website before its officially updated online. Well if you take a peak over at the site it seems that they have put the BlackBerry Storm on the site and have all the pricing ready.
Here is a breakdown of what the prices are currently showing on the VZW site. One thing we should note is that even though it says BlackBerry 9530 World Edition at the top the description does talk about the 8830 World Edition and if you look at the pricing for the 8830 its exactly the same.
$219.99 with two year contract
$289.99 with one year contract
$519.99 with no contract / month to month
So this is looking good for a release very very soon. Stay tuned for an official announcement from Big Red aka Verizon soon.

Alaska Airlines has one of the most interesting mileage programs out there, in my opinion. While many airlines form their partnerships by joining one of the three major alliances (OneWorld, SkyTeam, and Star Alliance), Alaska has remained independent. Despite that, they partner with over a dozen airlines, including airlines that belong to the major alliances (American, Delta, Cathay Pacific, etc.), as well as airlines that don't (Air Pacific, Emirates, Icelandair, etc.).
This actually makes their Mileage Plan program pretty compelling for those that don't fly enough with any single airline to achieve status. For example, you can credit both American and Delta miles to Alaska's Mileage Plan, even though the two airlines belong to different alliances. There's no other program that affords quite as much flexibility.
Because of the variety of partnerships they have, their award chart is a bit more complicated than most. Instead of having a single award chart that's region based, they have a specific award chart for each of their partner airlines broken down by region.
This is both a blessing and a curse. It's a curse because Alaska doesn't let you mix their partner airlines on an award ticket. So for example, while American and British Airways both belong to OneWorld and are partners with Alaska, you can't mix the two carriers on a single award. You can include a segment on Alaska to their partner airlines' international gateway, though that's the extent of it.
This is the one aspect of their programs that really frustrates me, since in many cases it limits award redemption opportunities greatly. For example, if you find award space on American for a transatlantic flight to London, you can't include a segment on British Airways from London to your final destination on the same award. Along the same lines, if you want to fly Air France to Europe, you can't include a segment on Delta to the international gateway.
At the same time this is also a blessing, since it presents many unique routing opportunities. For example, Alaska will let you fly Cathay Pacific from the US to the Middle East, India, Australia, and South Africa, all via Hong Kong at a reasonable cost (which American would require two separate awards to do, for example) as I highlighted in The 10 Best Value Premium Cabin Award Tickets
Partner Airlines
Air France, Air Pacific, American Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, Delta Air Lines, Emirates, Era Alaska, Icelandair, Kenmore Air, KLM, Korean Air, LAN, PenAir, Qantas
Alaska allows one stopover of more than 24 hours or one open jaw on international awards. Given that you can't mix airlines on an award ticket, this typically translates to a stopover in the partner airlines' hub city. No stopovers of more than four hours are allowed on domestic tickets.
Routing Rules
Given that Alaska doesn't let you mix airlines on an award ticket, their routing rules are actually pretty straightforward in practice – you can fly to your destination via the partner airline's hub. In other words, if you want to book a Cathay Pacific award to Australia, the Middle East, Africa, India, etc., there's only one logical connecting point, which is Hong Kong.
Keep in mind, however, that as part of an award you can include a segment on Alaska Airlines to the partner airline's international gateway. For example, say you live in Seattle and want to redeem miles for travel on British Airways to London. If the Seattle to London nonstop flight isn't available, you could route via Houston, Dallas, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Atlanta, Newark, Chicago, etc., and include that domestic segment on Alaska Airlines.
Companion Certificate
While this isn't part of Alaska Airlines Mileage Plan per se, if you get an Alaska Airlines Signature Visa card ($75 annual fee) it comes with a $99 companion certificate annually, which can be used with any kind of ticket, including first class. This is what I recommended in Tips for Booking Award Flights to Hawaii. Also, both passengers accrue miles. Note that as of December 1, 2011, you can only redeem the companion certificate by booking online, and not by phone; see the Companion Ticket FAQ. Currently the Alaska Airlines Signature Visa only has a 25K bonus, but last year there was a 40K promotion, so it might be worth waiting to see if they sweeten it at some point this year.
As covered in my previous post Comparing Airline Award Ticketing Fees and How to Avoid Them, Alaska charges a $15 ticketing fee per award reservation booked by phone. Furthermore, there's a $25 partner award fee for redemptions that involve one of their airline partner airlines, be it on their website or over the phone.
Alaska does waive the phone ticketing fee for their MVP Gold and MVP Gold 75K members (middle and top tier status). However, everyone has to pay the partner award fee if traveling on one of their partner airlines.
Alaska doesn't have any close-in ticketing fees.
Unfortunately Alaska no longer allows holds on award tickets. That being said, they let you cancel at no cost within 24 hours of ticketing, and let you make one change to the ticket within 72 hours of ticketing.
Searching for Award Space
American Airlines, British Airways, Cathay Pacific, LAN, Qantas: See How to Find Oneworld Award Space (don't forget that for American, you need to only look for the low level MilesAAver awards, as Alaska doesn't have access to the higher priced AAnytime award inventory)
Air France, Delta, KLM, Korean Air: See How to Find SkyTeam Award Space
Five Favorite Awards Using Mileage Plan Miles
1. Cathay Pacific roundtrip first class from North America to South Africa via Hong Kong for 140,000 miles. This is quite possibly one of the best award redemptions in any mileage program, given that you get four longhaul international first class flights on Cathay Pacific for just 140,000 miles.
2. Cathay Pacific roundtrip first class from North America to Africa/India/Middle East via Hong Kong for 140,000 miles. Much like the above redemption, this is an absolute bargain. Most airlines only let you route to Africa, India, and the Middle East by flying through Europe, but Cathay Pacific often has better availability going through Hong Kong.
3. Qantas roundtrip business class from North America to Australia for 110,000 miles. At only 110,000 miles, this is one of the cheapest business class options for travel to Australia. If you're lucky you can even snag a seat on the Airbus 380.
4. Icelandair roundtrip business class from North America to Europe via Iceland for 80,000 miles. Admittedly Icelandair business class leaves a lot to be desired. Nonetheless Iceland is a country that fascinates many, yet the lack of service direct from the US prevents a lot of people from going. So while Icelandair doesn't have the best business class product to Europe, you can't beat being able to stop in Iceland enroute to Europe, all for just 80,000 miles in business class.
5. Air France roundtrip business class from North America to Tahiti for 120,000 miles. Only two airlines fly nonstop between the US and Tahiti – Air Tahiti Nui and Air France – and at 120,000 miles roundtrip in business class, Alaska has one of the lowest redemption rates.
There you have it, those are the basics of redeeming Mileage Plan miles. It's one of the most unique programs out there, and hopefully some of you can take full advantage of all the program has to offer.

|Andrew D. commented 25 Jan 2012
|I was interpreting that KLM and Air France were treated as one partner from Alaska's award chart. Is that not the case?
|Hilary Stockton commented 25 Jan 2012
|Andrew, yes, for award purposes they are considered together, but Alaska does list them separately as partners probably due to the slightly different rules for each in terms of accruing miles for Alaska's Mileage Plan. See http://www.alaskaair.com/content/mileage-plan/partners/air-france.aspx and http://www.alaskaair.com/content/mileage-plan/partners/klm.aspx
|Ehtesham Q. commented 25 Jan 2012
|This for the review (perfect timing) which was definitely due after their weird alliance with Emirates. Any words about their credit card. Whats the maximum bonus available and their partner certificates value.
|Hilary Stockton commented 25 Jan 2012
|Ehtesham, currently the offer is 25K bonus Mileage Plan miles for the Alaska Signature Visa; you want to avoid the other Alaska cards (Platinum Plus and Preferred) as they offer lower bonus miles. Unfortunately you don't get to choose; they offer you a card based on your creditworthiness. If you have strong credit, you should receive the Visa Signature. The companion certificate is good for any ticket, including first class, but only on Alaska Airlines, not partners. We added a bit about this to the post, hope this helps!
|Pa R. commented 16 Feb 2014
|CX stops flying F to JNB from HKG on Sept 1 - I got screwed on the 140K AS redemption as had F booked on Sept 12. Now it's 2 class J on 777 instead of 3 class F on the 747. Didn't get any compensation for the downgrade - said since I still got F on one leg (SFO-HKG), they considered it an F redemption - total baloney, but hard to really complain for 140K...

"I ordered these to go with my save the dates, and they are so cute. I love how they look, and how elegant they make the whole thing look. I wanted to wow my guest with the first impression which was my save the dates, and these labels helped achieve that."
"I was hesitant to order the wrap around labels for our invitations, because I was not sure how large our names would be and if the font was large enough for the address. These labels are STUNNING! We were thinking about writing the address ourselves or purchasing a stamp, however, I am so glad we did not. Definitely a great buy. Very happy with these."
"I used these for a bachelorette party to go with the Sassy Support invite. I put my name with the return address part of the label, and instead of where the name is on the sample, I put Let's Celebrate (so that is the text that wraps around to the back of the envelope). It looks great, and everyone commented on how different it was. Paper quality is high, colors are rich and bold, and the labels peel off the backing very easily. Sets the tone for a fun event! Highly recommend!!"
"These labels are perfect! I love the wrap around style as it adds a personal touch when the guest opens the back of the envelope. Plus, the design is gorgeous!"

Today is moving day again (not out of the country this time, just about 5 miles), move #32 to be precise (pretty close at least). I know this because my little brother made me list out all of the places I have lived on a road trip we took once because he wanted to prove a point. "1, 2, 3…6… 16…25 … Yeah, o.k. so I move a lot, so what?" … "It's just not right to move around so much Traci." … "But why?" Interestingly enough, a question no one has ever been able to really answer.
This whole moving thing started when I first moved to California. When I used to go back home to visit my family/friends in New York (pre iPhone-age; back when we used pens and paper and the seriously archaic address book), the first thing they would say to me was "Oh my God Traci, I used up a whole page in my address book for you; there are at least 10 addresses in there", shaking their head and laughing, "How can you live like that?". I mean this was THE FIRST thing people would say to me for years. My mom in her adorable Long Island accent … "Oh Traci, why don't you just stay in one place, why do you have to keep moving? I don't even know where my baby lives half of the time … "Traci, you are a gypsy, you can't just keep moving around like that"… "When people ask where my daughter lives I can't even tell them." (?).
Since everyone always had something to say about me moving all the time, for a while I would ask myself "why DO I move around so much? … is there something wrong with me?" (I actually had many serious conversations on this topic) and would make excuses to myself and others, such as crazy landlords (I had to drop off the rent once at my landlord's house to find it was completely filled with teddy bears – scary), roommates that don't know how to use vacuums (seriously), kleptomaniac roommates, etc … (I have become an expert on roommates and actually did a presentation on how to be a good roommate in college once). Yes, some of those things definitely came into play, but then after moving so many times in my life, it really comes down to this, the reason I move a lot is …(wait for it) … because I like to. However, a recent memory made me realize there may be another reason … it may actually be genetic.
When I lived in New Hampshire we used to go to Long Island to visit my grandparents every six months or so. Every time we would arrive, the house would be arranged differently (via my Grandmother's vision). I remember there was this huge mural on the dining room wall (I am talking @ least 10 x 20) that she used to change all the time … beach scene, snow scene, mountain scene, then sometimes that wall just had wallpaper or paneling. The furniture was always different, and I remember once the kitchen actually changed places. One of my uncle's is blind and he would get so frustrated because every time he would come to visit, he would get lost in the house and had to re-learn where everything was (it's o.k. if you just laughed right there; my family, including my uncle, have). My Grandmother obviously wasn't able to move physical locations all the time, but in her way, she created change within her own home … and very frequently. See, it may be a little bit genetic after all.
Either way, for what it's worth, I have had the big house and all of "the things" … and I have lived in one place for more than a couple years … the truth is, change works for me, and having "very less" things works for me too. I kind of think of moving the same way I think of traveling … just seeing what's out there.
Yes, someday I will find a place that I settle down in, but for now, I am going to keep living this way because it just works for me (for now at least) … and I hope you keep doing what you like, and what works for you too.
(Btw, "very less" = a common term used in India for "not a lot")

YAZDANI et al v. DANLY INC et al
Filing 174
ORDER denying 162 Motion to Quash; granting in part 162 Motion for Protective Order By MAGISTRATE JUDGE JOHN H. RICH III. (cef)

DANLY, INC., et al., Defendants and COLONY INSURANCE COMPANY, Intervenor ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) Civil No. 09-108-P-H *************************************************************************** COLONY INSURANCE COMPANY, Plaintiff v. DANLY, INC., et al., Defendants and BABAK YAZDANI, et al., Parties in Interest ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) ) Civil No. 10-308-P-H ORDER ON MOTION TO QUASH SUBPOENA Harold Friedman, Martha Gaythwaite, and Karen Wolf (the "Attorney Witnesses") move to quash subpoenas served on each of them on October 26, 2010, by Colony Insurance Company 1 Dockets.Justia.com ("Colony") commanding their testimony at depositions scheduled for November 4 and 5, 2010. See Motion To Quash or for Protective Order by Harold J. Friedman, Martha C. Gaythwaite and Karen Frink Wolf ("Motion") (Docket No. 162, Yazdani; Docket No. 67, Colony). Alternatively, the Attorney Witnesses seek a protective order with respect to those depositions. See id. For the reasons that follow, the motion is denied insofar as it seeks to quash the subpoenas but granted in part insofar as it seeks a protective order. I. Applicable Legal Standards The First Circuit has observed: While district courts are to interpret liberally the discovery provisions of the Federal Rules of Civil Procedure to encourage the free flow of information among litigants, limits do exist. For example, Fed. R. Civ. P. 26(c) provides that, upon a showing of good cause, the presiding court may make any order which justice requires to protect a party or person from annoyance, embarrassment, oppression or undue burden or expense. Even more pertinently, Fed. R. Civ. P. 45(c)(3)(A)(iv) commands that a court shall quash or modify a subpoena if the subpoena subjects a person to undue burden. Heidelberg Americas, Inc. v. Tokyo Kikai Seisakusho, Ltd., 333 F.3d 38, 41 (1st Cir. 2003) (citations and internal quotation marks omitted). II. Discussion The Attorney Witnesses formerly served as counsel to the defendant "Danly parties" in the underlying Yazdani personal injury case, see Docket Nos. 145, 148, 157-58, Yazdani, and now have been subpoenaed to testify as witnesses with respect, inter alia, to the reasonableness of a settlement entered into in the Yazdani matter. They identify an unusual "undue burden" in these circumstances: "the burden of being required in a deposition, among three parties of shifting interests and alliances [Colony, the Yazdani parties, and the Danly parties], to ascertain question-by-question whether or not an otherwise proper answer is foreclosed by an attorney's duties under the Rules of Professional 2 Conduct." Reply to Colony Insurance Company's Response in Opposition to Motion To Quash or for Protective Order by Harold J. Friedman, Martha C. Gaythwaite and Karen Frink Wolf (Docket No. 171, Yazdani; Docket No. 75, Colony) at 4. The concern raised by the Attorney Witnesses, in context, does not warrant quashing the subpoenas. The Danly parties effectively have waived the attorney-client privilege with respect to the entire client file maintained by the Attorney Witnesses' law firm, Friedman Gaythwaite Wolf & Leavitt ("FGWL"). See, e.g., Docket No. 151, Yazdani; Docket No. 38, Colony, at 4-5. The Attorney Witnesses argue, in essence, that their duties to their former clients pursuant to the Maine Rules of Professional Conduct, for example, duties to preserve confidences and secrets of former clients pursuant to Rule 1.9, are broader than the obligations imposed by the attorney-client privilege. See, e.g., Motion at 5-7; Reply to Danly Defendants' Limited Objection to Motion To Quash or for Protective Order by Harold J. Friedman, Martha C. Gaythwaite and Karen Frink Wolf ("Reply/Danly") (Docket No. 173, Yazdani; Docket No. 77, Colony) at 2-3. Nonetheless, in these circumstances, in which the Danly parties have made clear that they wished their entire FGWL client file produced, and the court is now in effect ordering the Attorney Witnesses to testify by denying a motion to quash predicated largely on invocation of professional responsibility duties, I fail to see how, as a practical matter, the Danly parties or Bar Counsel could hold the Attorney Witnesses accountable for the transgression of any such duties. That said, the Attorney Witnesses make a persuasive case that limitations are warranted to protect them from unduly lengthy depositions, to ensure that questioning is appropriately limited, and to clarify that the burden is on the Danly parties' current counsel, not on the Attorney Witnesses or their counsel, to identify and object to lines of questioning implicating the Danly parties' interests, 3 for example, the attorney-client privilege, work-product doctrine, and professional responsibility duties owed by the Attorney Witnesses to the Danly parties. The motion accordingly is denied insofar as it seeks to quash the subpoenas and granted in part insofar as it seeks a protective order, as follows: 1. The deposition of Attorneys Friedman and Gaythwaite shall be limited to a total of two hours each in length, with one hour reserved to Colony and one hour reserved to the Danly parties/ Yazdani parties. The deposition of Attorney Wolf shall be limited to a total of three hours in length, with two hours reserved to Colony and one hour reserved to the Danly parties/Yazdani parties.1 2. Colony, the Danly parties, and the Yazdani parties may inquire solely as to the subject matters set forth in Exhibit A to the subpoenas.2 3. To the extent that the Danly parties do not interpose objections during the depositions of the Attorney Witnesses, they shall be deemed to have waived them, including objections based on claims of privilege or quasi-privilege, for example attorney-client or work product, or based on the 1 The Danly parties and the Yazdani parties are free to allocate the hour reserved for them in whatever way they see fit, including yielding some time to Colony. While I decline to order the parties to enter into time-saving stipulations in advance of the depositions, as suggested by the Yazdani parties, see Yazdanis' Response to FGWL's Motion To Quash Subpoena ("Yazdani Response") (Docket No. 168, Yazdani; Docket No. 72, Colony) at 8, I encourage them to do so. 2 Adopting a suggestion made by the Yazdani parties, the Attorney Witnesses sought protection from having to testify as to any opinions not communicated to their former clients, the Danly parties. See Yazdani Response at 8; Reply to Yazdanis' Response in Opposition to Motion To Quash or for Protective Order by Harold J. Friedman, Martha C. Gaythwaite and Karen Frink Wolf ("Reply/Yazdani) (Docket No. 172, Yazdani; Docket No. 76, Colony) at 4. I decline to impose this restriction. The problem that it seeks to remedy � the possible transgression of professional responsibility duties by giving testimony materially adverse to the Danly parties' interests � is adequately addressed by Item #3, below. I also deny the Attorney Witnesses' request to depart from "the traditional free-wheeling view of cross-examination even in Court, not to mention at deposition" and prohibit the parties other than Colony, the only party that sought the taking of the depositions, "from asking any question that is not clearly and closely within the scope of the direct examination that actually occurs, as distinguished from being within the scope of the seven broad paragraphs of the subpoena." Reply/Yazdani at 4-5. All parties are free to question the Attorney Witnesses within the parameters of the subject matter and time constraints set forth in Items ##2-3. 4 transgression of duties owed by the Attorney Witnesses to them as former clients, including but not limited to duties of secrecy, confidentiality, and loyalty.3 4. If counsel for the Danly parties interposes such an objection, counsel for the Attorney Witnesses may instruct the Attorney Witness not to answer. To the extent that any dispute regarding any such objection cannot be resolved pursuant to the obligation imposed by Local Rule 26 to confer in good faith, counsel shall forthwith contact the court for resolution of any such dispute, and the Attorney Witness need not answer, if instructed not to do so by his or her attorney, pending resolution of the dispute by the court.4 I note that (i) neither the parties nor the Attorney Witnesses have raised an issue regarding the confidentiality of the testimony that those witnesses will give, and (ii) the consent confidentiality order entered in both the Yazdani and Colony cases appears narrowly tailored to the document production previously made by FGWL. See Docket No. 155, Yazdani; Docket No. 50, Colony. However, given the inherently sensitive nature of the subject matter of the testimony, I will entertain any motion that the testimony be subject to confidentiality protections. SO ORDERED. 3 The Danly parties state that they do not anticipate objecting on the basis of privilege to questions posed to the deponents regarding the areas identified in the Colony subpoenas, but that they reserve their right to assert appropriate objections, including objections based on privilege, if the examination of the deponents goes beyond the areas specified in the subpoenas and into areas that are inappropriate or irrelevant. See Danly Defendants' Limited Objection to Motion To Quash (Docket No. 169, Yazdani; Docket No. 73, Colony) at 2. 4 The Attorney Witnesses had proposed that the court order that, if Mr. Bowie, counsel for the Danly parties, instructed an Attorney Witness not to answer, the witness was not to answer until the court ruled. See Reply/Danly at 4. However, it is the responsibility of the Attorney Witnesses' counsel, not the Danly parties' counsel, to instruct them not to answer. The Attorney Witnesses also proposed that the court order that if Mr. Bowie took exception to any ruling that I might make and indicated an intention to seek review of it by the District Judge, the witness should not answer the question, even in the face of my order that he or she should. See id. I decline to adopt this proposal. Should this eventuality come to pass, the Attorney Witnesses are not without recourse; for example, the affected witness may seek a stay of any adverse ruling pending review by the District Court judge. 5 NOTICE In accordance with Federal Rule of Civil Procedure 72(a), a party may serve and file an objection to this order within fourteen (14) days after being served with a copy thereof. Failure to file a timely objection shall constitute a waiver of the right to review by the district court and to appeal the district court's order. Dated this 3rd day of November, 2010. /s/ John H. Rich III John H. Rich III United States Magistrate Judge 6

SKI BEECH is the quaintest most wonderful ski town in the South East US. Everyone comes here. the house is 5 minutes from the parking lot of the sloop.
SUMMER we are the QUIET relaxing quaint Beech Mountain, 5,700 feet above sea level, and the tallest incorporated town in the eastern US, and a desired destination for weekly or monthly stays, for the ski slopes the BEST FALL color one can ask for and summer excape from heat. Living in glorious Quiet or shopping in Quaint Blowing Rock or Banner Elk, or enjoy summer theater, 8 minutes away, do the Zip line, hike all day, walk the national and state parks, shop antiques from England. SOUTH CREST on BEECH is one of the few mountain neighborhoods with almost level walking to the village and outdoor concerts. We have a lot of the same guests who come back every year. tons of WEDDINGS are held here.
The temperature has never gone over 76 degrees, so there is no need for air conditioning. The average high for summer is 72. Each room has separate heat control. Facing south means you will have morning sun and shade for the evenings, with amazing sunsets since you will be able to see SO MUCH SKY. Sleep at night with windows open in temps going down to the 50s.
We get tons of compliments on the decorating of the house and are constantly adding new things. Some sit on the covered deck for sunrise, cocktails, or reading, Only Grandfather Mt and trees are in view plus deer, ground hog, wild turkeys and birds being the typical wildlife.
Beech Mountain is considered one of the safest areas in NC, with police department walking distance and there are 3 competent hospitals within 40 minutes. More than 20 fine restaurants within 12 minutes of the house. Grocery and pharmacies within 3 to 20 minutes. Fresh produce within walking distance...this is a dream place and we could not live without it.
Our ski slopes are the best, Land Of Oz festival is one weekend in the summer, the Wooly Worm festival is in the fall, and the leaf and ski and decorated Winter holiday seasons are the best of all. Entrance to the famous Blue Ridge Parkway is only a few minutes away.
My family and I have been enjoying Beech for over 30 years, and finally chose South Crest on Beech to buy this home after years of comparing amenities, temperatures, and view. We love it there and use it as the get away we always wanted and needed as a respite from our busy lives. We refer it as recharging our batteries.
Go once and you will return!
Keywords: Beech Mountain, near Boone, North Carolina and Ski Beech
Tom and I looked for years for the best location for a mountain house. We knew it had to be Beech Mt and then it was where we wanted to be able to walk safely, so Elderberry Ridge Rd was the only near level road. We gutted and remodeled the condo we found and traveled to places in the west and south west US to find great design elements, Navajo rugs, wall handings etc. I painted most of the paintings in the house.
We live in Raleigh NC. I own McNamara Properties Real estate and Tom practices law. We have grown children and grandchildren and a cat named Boo.
June Mcnamara purchased this condo in 2006
Tom and I went to Beech Mt for 30 years with our children. We looked all over the North Carolina Mountains many times and never could find anything better than Beech. It is never over 76 degrees and the community is so friendly and hanging out at Fred's is a huge part of every visit. Beech is like going back in time, with street dances, fairs and concerts on Sunday evenings at the gazebo. The ski resort is the best. We are 4 minutes from the parking for the ski bus and walking distance to everything. GO BEECH!
Our street is the only level street to walk on so we walk down to the store/cafe to eat and walk back home. In less than 10 minutes, we can ski, hike, and eat. Less than 20 minutes we can shop, zip line, raft and more eating. Less than 40 minutes we can visit 4 small quaint towns that draw thousands of visitors each year. Blowing Rock Vallie Crucis, Banner Elk and Boone all have great shopping, parades, festivals, sports, fine food, nature trails, hunting, fishing, lakes, history, music, summer theater,national parks, you name it.
Winter skiing, snowboarding and sledding. Never over 76 in the summer and tons of snow in the winter. Everything is quant, friendly and so many social hangouts.

TUSCALOOSA, Ala. (UTSports.com / WVLT) -- The Tennessee baseball team swept a doubleheader with Alabama Saturday to win the weekend series and snap an eight-game SEC losing streak.
Junior southpaw Steven Gruver tossed a seven-inning complete game gem, allowing just one unearned run on four hits, to lead the Tennessee baseball team to a series-evening, 2-1, victory over No. 24 Alabama in the first game of a doubleheader on Saturday at Sewell-Thomas Stadium.
The Vols won the second game 1-0 thanks to a strong five-inning effort by pitcher Nick Blount.
Gruver's win evened his record on the season at 4-4 and dropped his ERA to 2.60. The Canfield, Ohio, native scattered four hits, all singles, and threw 105 pitches.
Offensively, junior Zach Osborne and seniors Tyler Horne and Josh Liles each had a pair of hits for the Big Orange. Osborne and Liles recorded the team's two RBIs with run-scoring singles in the third and fourth innings, respectively. Freshman Ethan Bennett also had a double and scored a run, while senior Matt Duffy accounted for UT's other tally after picking up a single.
Gruver's effort was aided by a pair of double plays, including a 4-6-3 turn off the bat of Alabama star Taylor Dugas in the bottom of the seventh inning to end the game. The Tide's only run of the day came in the bottom of the fifth after a two-out walk, a passed ball and a throwing error on an infield single.
The Big Orange got the scoring started in the top of the third. Bennett opened the frame with a leadoff double down the left-field line before coming home to score two batters later when Osborne laced a single to right center.
UT's second and eventual game-winning run came just one stanza later. Duffy got the ball rolling in the Orange and White's favor by lining a one-out single to left. After a pop-up put two outs on the scoreboard, sophomore Charley Thurber was hit by a pitch before Liles punched an RBI single to right to give the Big Orange a 2-0 lead.
Tennessee improved to 20-15 overall and 3-11 in SEC play as it snapped a nine-game skid...UT is now 30-68 all-time against Alabama, including a 10-29 record in Tuscaloosa...The two-hit efforts by Zach Osborne, Tyler Horne and Josh Liles were their 14th, seventh and eighth multi-hit contests of the year, respectively...Steven Gruver's complete game was his second of the season and his career (9.0 innings versus Manhattan 3/11)...Official game time was one hour, 44 minutes for the seven-inning affair.

American Psycho writer Bret Easton Ellis has slammed CBS sitcoms Big Bang Theory and How I Met Your Mother, dismissing them as 'crap'.
After his rant about gay actor Matt Bomer, Ellis began tweeting about gay actors playing straight characters on television.
'Feel complicated about Neil Patrick Harris on How I Met Your Mother – central joke being that he's a gay actor playing a womanizer,' he said.
'Why not cast Jason Segal in the Neil Patrick Harris role in How I Met Your Mother? The meta-joke is that Harris is openly gay. Lame…'
He added: 'You don't think the makers of How I Met Your Mother didn't KNOW that Neil Patrick Harris was gay and that would be part of the joke? Really?
"Look, I like Neil Patrick Harris especially when he's hosting The Tonys but How I Met Your Mother is, like all CBS sitcoms, a piece of crap.'
Ellis also referenced fellow CBS sitcom The Big Bang Theory, which stars the openly gay Jim Parsons as asexual Sheldon Cooper, calling it 'terrible'.
He said: 'And please don't get me started on the gay The Big Bang Theory – I'm too tired to go there. Gayness personified.'
Discussing Modern Family, praised for its contemporary take on gay families, Ellis said if anyone thought it was progressive than they were a 'retrograde tool'.
'I'm not a homophobe. I'm a misanthrope,' he argued. 'I hate the way homosexuality is presented in our entertainment culture.'
The US novelist stirred up controversy this week when he claimed Magic Mike star Matt Bomer should not star in the Fifty Shades of Grey movie because he is openly gay.
Ellis has publicly expressed his desire to adapt the novel into a screenplay but confirmed that he is no longer in the running for the project.

Fighting Malnutrition and Spurring Economic Development in Haiti
Even before the earthquake, pediatric malnutrition was a significant health problem in Haiti, the poorest nation in the Western hemisphere. As the single largest contributor to disease, malnourished children are five to eight times more likely to die from diseases like diarrhea, pneumonia, and measles as compared to a well-nourished child, according to the U.N. Standing Committee on Nutrition.
Kathy Pickus on the Business Case for Global Development at the 2012 Global Conference
Solving complex, deep-rooted problems like malnutrition will require a unique approach. Abbott and the Abbott Fund have formed a unique partnership in Haiti with Partners In Health (PIH). Through the combination of the collective expertise and resources of Abbott, the Abbott Fund and PIH, Haitians are empowered to create local, sustainable solutions to treating severe malnutrition, and also address its underlying cause—poverty. At the same time, the partners are working to change lives and establish new models in Haiti that can be replicated to help others implement sustainable projects around the world.
The focus of the project is to enhance and expand PIH's production of Nourimanba, a ready-to-use therapeutic food specifically formulated to treat severe childhood malnutrition. It also focuses on producing non-medical products, such as peanut butter, that will be sold commercially to support PIH's continued production and free distribution of Nourimanba.
The $6.5 million initiative draws on the expertise of more than 50 Abbott staff, including its leading nutrition scientists and engineers. Working together with PIH's medical experts and local Haitian staff, the partnership is building a new nutrition production facility near PIH's hospital in Haiti's central plateau region. Key parts of the initiative include:
- Building an 18,000-square-foot nutritional food production facility in Corporant, Haiti, to expand Nourimanba production.
- Abbott and PIH staff working shoulder-to-shoulder to combine PIH's successful record of health care delivery, agricultural development, and Nourimanba formula, with Abbott's expertise in nutrition science, engineering, quality and manufacturing.
- Creating economic and agricultural development: local farmers provide the peanuts used to make Nourimanba, local workers are building the facility, and Abbott and PIH experts are training local staff to handle production, product testing, and facility management.
- Producing commercial products such as peanut butter, which will help sustain the production and free distribution of Nourimanba.
The facility broke ground in early 2012, and production is expected to begin by the end of the year. PIH currently treats approximately 10,000 children per year with Nourimanba; the new facility will allow them to potentially treat up to 50,000 children per year.
The project is committed to engaging and employing local Haitians in as many ways as possible. Currently, more than 200 farmers are engaged in the peanut supply chain, and approximately 40 local employees handle the production process—from shelling the peanuts to filling containers with the finished Nourimanba. In addition, local workers are constructing the facility. Once the facility is operational, approximately 20 additional Haitian staff will be needed to handle additional aspects of staff management, production, maintenance, and lab analysis. Local employees bring a great deal of local value and knowledge to the process including their familiarity of regional conditions, infrastructure, climate, and community norms. This is critical information that historically has created challenges in scaling projects in Haiti.
Along with their expertise, Abbott scientists and engineers are sharing what they learn from the project to educate and strengthen the company's understanding of health and nutrition in developing countries. That enables Abbott to better meet the health care needs of people around the world in the future. Key success factors and lessons learned are internalized by Abbott teams to strengthen their understanding of initiating and scaling business and social investment programs to meet health needs in developing nations. This includes learning about lowest-cost production in resource-limited environments, which can inform the company's development and manufacturing efforts as well.
