CPS board ready to pass buck on a fiscal mess?

Passing the buck . . .
Scoopsville! Sneed hears the seven members of the CPS board — all of whom are being replaced after Mayor-elect Rahm Emanuel takes office May 16 — have decided to refrain from voting on a new CPS budget — and pass the fiscal mess on to Rahm's people!
† To wit: It seems the budget, which has not been released, is worse than people thought — with a deficit that's ballooned from $720 million to approximately $800 million.
† Translation: Sneed hears the CPS board planned to release the budget two weeks ago to enable a board budget vote in May — but when word of the fiscal fiasco got up to Mayor Daley's office — who's on his farewell tour of the city — the order came back: Punt!
† The Endshot: The vote will fall to Rahm's new board.
A Beals appeal . . .
Actress Jennifer Beals, star of "The Chicago Code," just put in a request to be part of the mayoral inaugural celebration. Stay tuned.
Cop shop . . .
Police Bulletin: Sneed hears the list of 45-plus applicants for Chicago's next police superintendent has been whittled down to a dozen.
† House closing: Update on Sneed's item that a house may have been part of the deal requested by Mayor-elect Rahm Emanuel's top cop favorite, Philly's police chief Charles Ramsey, whose salary concerns scotched the move. "I requested help in finding a furnished place to live in Chicago, but financial help in that area was never a part of any deal or request," Ramsey told Sneed. "It was all about salary and pension and nothing more." So be it.
The royal coupling . . .
As Sneed prepares to haul her royal baggage to London next week to once again cover the latest Brit royal wedding, the flotsam and jetsetsam surrounding the soiree is mind boggling.
† Frock squawk: All the flap doodle over Kate Middleton's secret wedding dress has been resolved: According to the Daily Mail, Middleton designed it herself . . . and it was inspired by the Renaissance era . . . because Kate has a history of arts degree, don'tchaknow. And it will be minus the wedding dress flounce worn by Princess Diana, the late mother of Middleton fiance Prince William . . . Who woudda thunk it?
† Mistress mayhem: Camilla Parker Bowles, the dreaded mistress/now wife of Princess Di's hubby, Prince Charles, is apparently "desperate" to persuade Middleton to wear a tiara! Oh, the worry of it all!
† Honeymoon hoopla: Finally, the latest rumor has "Kate & Wills" heading to Jordan for their honeymoon, where Kate once attended nursery school, and hanging out under the stars in a desert tent near the ancient ruin of Petra.
Hang 'em high . . .
Fox news anchor Bob Sirott had a special present for WBBM-Channel 2 news anchor Walter Jacobson when the two met for lunch at Petterino's last Friday.
† The gift: Two pairs of suspenders (one blue, one yellow) that Sirott found in Jacobson's old locker at Fox studios — where Jacobson worked six years ago.
The Obama vetting . . .
Meanwhile, President Obama — who is planning to spend a day in Ireland next month visiting the auld sod of his Eire ancestors, has been invited to a sheep shearing event in County Mayo during his whistle-stop tour.
† To wit: He's been invited to the annual Connacht Sheep Shearing Championship in Ballinrobe on May 22 due to his "farm livestock links," according to a report in the Irish press — which claims Obama's great-great-great-grandfather Falmouth Kearney "may have kept sheep before he emigrated to the U.S. in the 1850s, and his African family herded goats in Kenya." Good grief.

10 Easy Family Getaways
Affordable vacation ideas for the whole family
By Ruth Manuel-Logan
Keeping It Local: Hit the highway
Although gas prices are soaring, overall, driving is still a relatively inexpensive way to travel as a family. And in terms of convenience, nothing beats a road trip: You can set your own schedule, load up the car with food and drinks, and stop anywhere along the way. How about exploring nearby towns? Visit a local chamber of commerce and check out all that the town has to offer. (Most towns also have their own websites.) Better yet, find out if there is an upcoming festival that you or your kids would enjoy visiting (festivalsandevents.com).

Applicants to Portland area schools 2011
- 0Jan 25, '11 by Ginnym1981How's everyone doing with their Apps?
I applied to MHCC, CCC, PCC and Linfield.
It's my first year applying and I'm a nervous wreck!!!
How long does it usually take to hear whether or not you got an interview?
I was glad to see CCC changed their deadline to Feb 15th like the other OCNE schools-I think it'll make the waiting more bearable!
Anyone else want to share points to see how tight the competition is this year?
Other than Mt. Hood, I don't get too many discretionary points.
Heres what I *think* I have (figuring them myself):
MHCC-63 points
CCC-50 or 51 points depending on how they round up your gpa
PCC-54 points
Good luck everyone!!!
Let the nail biting, stalking the mailbox begin!
CCC 54.8 + 3 discretionary points if it comes to that.
I'm not sure of my chances at CCC. I think I have better odds at PCC. I was told by one of the application reviewers at PCC that the average student for 2010 had 60pts, a four-year degree, and a 3.9GPA. I thought I read somewhere on this board that the cutoff for points at CCC last year was 55. By cutoff I mean for those that got interviews. I'm sure I'll be corrected by someone if I'm wrong.Last edit by kamaboko on Jan 25, '11
- 0I wouldn't expect to hear any definitive answers regarding acceptance until mid to late May. Might as well give your fingernails a chance to grow. I'm already working on plan B if I don't get accepted; that being something in the computer engineering field. I'm not going to reapply year after year as I've read in so many posts here. If a 3.9GPA, multiple college degrees, and CNA isn't good enough this year, I have no reason to believe it will somehow miraculously be good enough next year.
- 0Jan 25, '11 by gardensttI was just on CCC's nursing website and thought I read that their application period is Feb 7-11. Am I wrong?
Also, the CCC score sheet I found says you can get up to 50 points for an essay.... but this isn't part of the tie-breaker? I can't find any more info on the essay. Does anyone have insight?
This is my second year applying and I am trying for CCC and OHSU's Monmouth campus.
I have pretty much all the points needed for CCC and OHSU doesn't really have a definite point system. I have decided that if I don't get in this year, I'm going to take the classes I need to apply to Linfield. I know three people who have gotten into their program and I don't want to offend anyone by saying this, but it seems like it's easier to get in there.
Kamaboko - where did you get your CNA license? It seems like there are limited way to get it and that's something I am really interested in doing.
- 0Quote from gardensttI'm pretty sure the essay exam is part of the second round of cuts. I mean, not everyone gets to write an essay. The essay is only for those who have made it through the first of points.Nevermind about the essay question - I did more poking around found this:
Essay Exams:
Applicants will be assigned a date (included in the complete packet letters from Enrollment Services) on April 9 or April 16, 2011 to complete the essay exam. Do save these dates!

This is a lovely fragrance. I'm not the best at describing fragrances, but I detect musk and rose notes. Unfortunately for me, this smelled better in the bottle than it did on me. On me, it didn't stand out as being a very va-va voom fragrance... more of a safe, "go to" scent. *sigh* I wish it could've worked up between us! I ended up swapping this away.
The bottle is pretty, but my only complaint about it is that it's opaque and therefore difficult to see the contents inside.

Yum Yum Yum Yum. This is the sexiest perfume!
I was walking thru Nordstrom a few months ago and right before I walked out the door, a perfume lady tied a ribbon sample of this scent around my wrist. I didn't think much of it at that time. It was a bit strong for my normal liking but I was on my lunch break and had to get back to work. I didn't think much of it the rest of the day. As a matter of fact I forgot about it. Come the end of the day and the ribbon had fallen off my wrist. I get in my car and keep smelling something so heavenly but can't figure out what it is!
Well after a few days I finally find the ribbon between my seats and it dons on me that is what I had been smelling. I have been wearing it everyday since and I get compliment after compliment. My husband who is the pickiest man on earth when it comes to perfume (his all time fav is Happy by Clinique--booooring!) absolutely loves it so it must be good! I am not an expert on the whole fragrance notes, etc but to me this is a musky, womenly, sexy scent! I have to agree with someone earlier who said her man said it smells like pure sex. It kinda does...in a good way though. The sweet way :)

I really love everything from Narciso Rodriguez. I already using this NR since 2004. Everybody always compliment me when i use Narciso Rodriguez. the smells really different from other parfume...i just can't leave home without it. This is my HG parfume, my signature scent ;)
I always buy and buy and buy again this parfume...loveeee thiss so much
I like this scent. Don't love, but like. I smell a lot of SJP Lovely in the drydown. I also feel that the juice doesn't last very long on me. I loved the opening notes, but as the scent devlops I feel that it smells regular on me. Nothing notable or outstanding. Safe for office, as it doesn't offend, but not my knock 'em dead scent. Really wouldn't buy again, but if I got it as a gift, I would wear it to work. Pretty nice bottle though.
A wonderful amber/vanilla-ish scent, that melts lovely into my skins own scent. It doesn't last for that long though. The bottle is wonderfully simple yet girly in a not-over-the-top way. Definetly worth showing off!
The vapourizer is much better than on all other fragrances i have tried out before.
i bought this parfum on september and i receive compliments everyday for this scent... i don't like edt very much,though..but i think eau de parfum is more sensual and persistent on my skin
This stuff stinks so badly. I don't understand the hype.
This is going to be my HG perfume. Last June, I bought a big bottle of the EDT, which I LOVE. But today, I went in and sprayed the EDP on one wrist, the EDT on the other and after shopping for about 45 minutes, found that I liked the EDP sooooo much better.
The fragrance is very classy, elegant, sexy and I've been getting compliments on it all day!!!
As with the other products in the NR "For Her" range I absolutely love this scent, it's so velvety and sumptuous. I can't decide whether I prefer to EPT or the EDP, as both are equally beautiful in different ways.
Although some may disagree II find the EDP lighter and more flowery and the EDT slightly heavier and musky. I think the EDP may JUST have the edge though (but then again, on some days the EDT has the edge).
The musk oil for me though beats 'em hands down.
Cute, simple packaging but I'm not really a fan of this fragrance. It's a bit too musty and floral on me, although I do like some feminine scents. This tended to be overpowering on me so I gave it to a friend. She wears it regularly and gets tons of compliments. Oh well, just not my type of frag :)

Windows 8 Could Pull In Rapid Enterprise Upgrades: 10 Reasons Why
Windows 8 Could Pull In Rapid Enterprise Upgrades: 10 Reasons Why
At the BUILD conference last week, Microsoft spent a lot of time talking about Windows 8, the next version of its operating system, set to launch next year. On many fronts, Windows 8 appears to be a worthwhile purchase for consumers. It will run well on tablets, come with a neat new interface and, according to Microsoft, offer better security. Since PC vendors will, as always, ship it with their latest PC models, consumers might have no other choice but to run Windows 8 the next time they buy a computer.
But the enterprise is different. During the Windows Vista years, the corporate world showed that when it doesn't want to deploy a respective operating system, it won't. Windows 7 has demonstrated that when enterprises have confidence in a new OS, they will buy it. But how will enterprises react to the availability of Windows 8? Will it embrace the operating system or, as some critics have said, ignore it altogether as an untimely upgrade that is arriving very early in the desktop hardware upgrade cycle.
But at this point, it seems Windows 8 will be an enterprise winner. Read on to find out why:
1. Many are still using XP
Although Windows 7 has proved wildly popular and it has been deployed by hundreds of millions of PC users around the world, many companies are still using Windows XP. Now that IT managers know Windows 8 will launch late next year, they might decide to wait until then to get all new computers in their businesses. Windows 7 is available now and is quite appealing, but for some companies, waiting until next year for Windows 8 might be their best bet.
2. Windows 7 isn't fully rolled out
Of course, there are some companies that have already started to deploy Windows 7. And while some of those companies will continue to deploy Windows 7 until all their PCs are covered, in this world of tight budgets and uncertain economic times putting those deployments on hold to see what the next year holds might be more appealing to companies right now. For those firms, Windows 8 might just be their best bet.
3. Think about tablets
Windows 7 is by no means a worthwhile tablet operating system. In fact, it falls short in several ways. But Windows 8 is designed with tablets in mind, making it an obvious choice for enterprise users. After all, it will support the operating system that companies want and come in a form factor that the enterprise is slowly but surely adopting. Although arguments can be made that companies won't buy Windows 8 desktops or laptops, many firms will jump at Windows 8 tablets.
4. The new look won't scare employees
Much has been made about the new look and feel of Windows 8, complete with tiles and other features that the critics say will confuse employees. However, at BUILD, Microsoft showed that it's actually quite easy to turn the operating system back to the classic desktop style that employees have grown accustomed to. If they do decide to go with the tiles, it won't scare them one bit. Windows 8's new look and feel isn't nearly as big of a problem as some claim.
ARM Compatibility Is Big New Factor
5. Expect better security
Microsoft has already drawn a line in the sand, saying that its next operating system version will come with improved security over its predecessor. In fact, according to eWEEK's Nicholas Kolakowski, a Microsoft executive last week showed off those features. The executive plugged a USB device containing a rootkit virus into a Windows 8 PC, Kolakowski reported. Windows 8 stopped the rootkit from booting up, thus protecting the system. If Microsoft can make good on its promise to make Windows 8 more secure, the enterprise will jump at the chance to deploy it.
6. Companies have time to plan
Unlike Apple, which likes to launch products close to their announcements, Microsoft understands that the corporate world needs time to plan. That's why the software giant has been talking about Windows 8 for quite some time and why it will continue to make it a top priority in the coming months. Windows 8 won't launch until next year. By then, the corporate world will have more than enough time to decide whether or not the new OS is right for their organizations.
7. It's still Windows, after all
Although some critics say that Windows 8 won't appeal to the enterprise, such an opinion seems rather shortsighted. The fact of the matter is Windows has always been a corporate favorite and that won't change with Microsoft's next operating system. Windows Vista wasn't all that popular, but a large number of companies still deployed it. Considering that Windows 8 looks to be much better than Vista, what makes anyone think that it won't have even stronger adoption?
8. ARM compatibility is huge
Much has been made about the partnership Microsoft inked with ARM, and for good reason. That deal, which will see ARM-based chips run Windows, will benefit both consumers and enterprise users. When ARM-based devices running Windows hit store shelves, they will likely be tablets. But over time, ARM processors might emerge for a wider range of PC models, which could drastically alter buying decisions across the enterprise. All the while, Intel will be forced to be more competitive, which could bring down PC prices. At this point, it appears ARM will spawn major changes in the marketplace, including lower prices, and the enterprise might just benefit heavily.
9. There will be no loss in productivity
Productivity means everything in the enterprise. If it falls, companies make less money. If it rises, they make more. With each new version of Windows, IT staffs need to consider how the operating system might affect productivity. This time around, the OS will come with a different look and some design quirks that might surprise users at first. But over time, it won't be a problem. Windows 8 will not be a drain on productivity, and it's important that all enterprise users understand that.
10. Remember the apps
An application marketplace has proved to be one of the most important aspects of Apple's business over the last few years. In 2008, it launched its mobile app store, and earlier this year, it brought the Mac App Store to Mac OS X "Snow Leopard" and then Mac OS X "Lion." Microsoft will respond with an app store of its own with Windows 8, called Windows Store. That marketplace's ease of use and expected major support from developers are integral components in Windows 8's appeal to consumers and enterprise users alike.

Each year when early proofs are ready for the new book, copies go to fellow authors. I send some; my editor and agent send some. It's always with humility and a bit of nervousness that I do this. I know how busy everyone is — looming deadlines, family, research, a towering stack of other galleys — and that often just receiving another book in the mail is an imposition. Also, these copies always go to people I admire, respect, and whose work has inspired me. So, there's a lot of angst and nail-biting when I'm making my list.

Sundance Film Festival lineup includes four features shot in the Northwest
On the lineup of the Jan. 20-30, 2011, Sundance Film Festival are "The Off Hours," "The Catechism Cataclysm" and "The Oregonian," all filmed at least partially in Seattle with mostly local casts and crews. Festival selection "The Details" was also shot here.
Special to The Seattle Times
Sundance selectionsFOUR FEATURES with Seattle ties that will screen at the 2011 Sundance Film Festival:
'The Off Hours': A passing truck driver brings an unfamiliar sense of optimism to a woman working the night shift at a quiet diner, reminding her it's never too late to become the person you always wanted to be. Written and directed by Seattle resident Megan Griffiths.
'The Catechism Cataclysm': After becoming disinterested with the church, a priest tracks down his old classmate, a former metalhead whom he idolized in high school. When the two embark on a canoeing trip together, all hell breaks loose. Written and directed by Todd Rohal.
'The Oregonian': After surviving a brutal car accident, a simple farm woman limps down the road into the nightmarish unknown. Written and directed by Calvin Lee Reeder.
'The Details': When hungry raccoons discover worms living under the sod in a young couple's backyard, the pest problem sets off a wild and absurd chain reaction of domestic tension, infidelity, organ donation and murder by way of bow and arrow. Written and directed by Jacob Aaron Estes.
Source: Sundance Film Festival
Four feature films selected for the 2011 Sundance Film Festival have strong Seattle ties — and three have ties to one another.
On Wednesday and Thursday, the Sundance Institute announced its feature selections for the festival, running Jan. 20-30 in Park City, Utah.
Considered the premier showcase of American independent film, the festival will show 155 features divided into a dozen categories.
In the lineup are "The Off Hours," "The Catechism Cataclysm" and "The Oregonian," all filmed at least partially in Seattle with mostly local casts and crews.
Also showing will be "The Details"; it was also shot in Seattle, but the primary names behind it are from outside the area — including stars Elizabeth Banks, Laura Linney and Tobey Maguire.
Megan Griffiths wrote and directed "The Off Hours," in which a handful of average people at a truck stop reconsider the directions of their lives.
The Seattle resident is also a producer of "The Catechism Cataclysm," a buddy comedy about a priest who takes a disastrous canoeing trip with an old friend. (Lacey Leavitt, another Seattleite, also worked as a producer on both films.)
Griffiths and "Cataclysm" writer/director Todd Rohal both conceived their projects years ago but, as the economy worsened and funding for independent film contracted, realized big investors weren't forthcoming.
This year, they decided to chop their budgets and find casts and crews they could persuade to work for less, or even for nothing.
Rohal, who is based in New York, considered locations in Virginia, Texas and upstate New York before his friend Griffiths joined the project as a producer and convinced him to film in Washington.
"Easily the best decision I made for this film," he wrote in an e-mail. "The crew and location in Washington made this film what it is. It's beautiful and well-crafted and that's all because of what we were lucky enough to find in the area."
Griffiths and Rohal say Seattle's close-knit film community helped reduce the negative effects of a vastly reduced budget. Many of the same crew and cast members worked several of this year's selected films, and local businesses volunteered to provide food, transportation and other services.
"I think people would be really impressed, based on the production quality of the film ["The Off Hours"], at how little it cost," Griffiths said. "They both look like movies. They're both fantastic, and I don't think that would be possible without so many people volunteering to help."
Much of "The Oregonian," which writer/director Calvin Lee Reeder calls "a sort of nightmare probing of the unknown," was filmed in Washington, including in the Seattle area. Reeder grew up in Renton and lived in Seattle before moving to Los Angeles three years ago. He has previously been to Sundance with two shorts, both of which were also filmed here.
"It's a big honor to be selected and I'm always surprised when they all actually agree to play my stuff," Reeder said of his psychedelic-feeling films. "I'm sure I've never been a unanimously selected dude."
The Seattle filmmakers' stories reflect a larger do-it-yourself trend in independent film. Despite a hostile economic landscape, the Sundance festival got more submissions than ever, surpassing 10,000 total entries for the first time. "Indie film is healthy and alive right now," festival director John Cooper wrote in a live chat on Wednesday, after the festival announced the first half of its slate.
"The Catechism Cataclysm" and "The Oregonian" will screen in the festival's Park City at Midnight section. Typically the home of horror and other less family-friendly fare, it has shown breakout hits such as "The Blair Witch Project."
"The Off Hours" will have its premiere in the Next category, which debuted last year and features low-budget work. Although filmgoers and critics were initially unsure what to make of Next, several of last year's most highly praised films came out of the category.
"The Details" will screen in the high-profile Premieres category.
Other selected films with Northwest themes include two Oregon-based documentaries: "How to Die in Oregon" is about that state's physician-assisted suicide law, and "If a Tree Falls: A Story of the Earth Liberation Front" looks at radical environmentalists' attacks on Northwest timber companies.

MLS Makes Bid for Relevance
On Saturday night, I will attend the game between Real Madrid and Real Salt Lake.
Win or lose, MLS Commissioner Don Garber hopes such high-profile games can elevate the stature of the MLS, which has lost more than $350 million in the past decade.
Garber points to recent business announcements, and predicts the 10-year-long money slide will end. He says that with the marketing strategy of the MLS, along with a new broadcast partnership with ESPN, more American sports enthusiasts than ever will be exposed -- and begin to appreciate -- soccer, the world's most popular sport. The 2006 World Cup, in which Italy defeated France, attacted a sizable TV audience in America.
Real Salt Lake, which joined the MLS in 2005, has threatened to leave the city because local elected officials recently refused to invest $35 million in taxpayer money toward building the team a 20,000-seat soccer stadium. The team plays at the University of Utah's Rice-Eccles Stadium, a 45,000-seat football venue with artificial turf.Elected officials in Salt Lake City expressed skepticism about the feasibility of the stadium deal. A Real Salt Lake business plan, submitted with the request for the public money, showed the team continuing to lose money, and only making money in the near future by hosting an ambitious schedule of music concerts and selling naming rights. The plan projected season ticket sales doubling from 6,000 this year to 12,500 in 2015.

Chef Wanted: Oceano Updateby Joseph Erdos in Shows, February 17th, 2013
Oceano is a restaurant and nightclub located right on the beach in Puerto Rico. Owner Todd Berman was looking for an executive chef who could match the elegance of the restaurant with a culturally charged menu. Anne Burrell and the Chef Wanted team were brought in to help with the search. After two difficult tests and two very different dinner services, an offer was extended to Chef Austin Henry.
Chef Henry considers himself the James Bond of the kitchen. He's traveled the world and is familiar with many different cuisines and languages. Oceano is the perfect opportunity for Chef Henry to move up in his culinary career.
At first Chef Henry had a rough start. He almost served his mofongo dish with undercooked pork, but rectified the issue just in time. For his second "sexy" dish, he had to change course from scallops to shrimp when he realized the scallops wouldn't sear properly. When it came to dinner service, he succeeded at rallying support from the restaurant staff, and except for getting frustrated over frozen pork and some expediting problems, the service was successful. Despite his lack of experience with Puerto Rican cuisine, his menu incorporated characteristic island flavors and got rave reviews from the guests. In the end, Chef Henry was offered the executive chef position because of his great food and natural leadership in the kitchen.
FN Dish caught up with Chef Henry since the show taped. Watch the video above to find out what he's been doing since getting the job, what competing on the show was like and what it means for him to finally be an executive chef.

Well, call me a Reality TV dodo – but it took tonight's show to have me realize that they set up the challenges in the last round to give them a hard time. As if it isn't hard enough for these chefs to serve 100 people or more at one time. Chef Austin was the obvious choice in the end, but I'm not sure his habit of throwing food at the wall is going to serve him well in the future.
I completely agree
Had to laugh during the description of "mofongo" being unappealing to the eye but very good….sounds like they were describing Chef Anne. :-) I've got to mute the TV as she does her count from 10 to 1 because her shouting voice is so grating. That aside, this has become one of my favorite shows. I like that they don't go to a commercial before revealing who gets cut in the first two rounds. Penelope made good points in her comment.
Todd Berman was such a jerk! Who would want to work for him?
Look…all these shows are PRODUCED…meaning scenes are shot, stopped, re-done with direction. They gave Austin a character to play. He probably doesn't go around throwing food in his real life kitchens. They don't show this part on the show but I really think the staff weighs in on who they would rather work with. In this case it was obvious that Austin had a more copasetic relationship with the staff.
Finally someone with common sense. People take these shows too seriously. Just because it is call a reality show means that is actually all real.
I like Anne, but this show, not so much. I don't dig her screaming "How much do you want this job!!!!!" It just doesn't ring true. Nor some of her other insults. She's smart and knows how to cook but this "personality" they're putting on her isn't a winner to me.
glad to read your review!! I feel exactly the same way, stop the screaming and be yourself.
Have you ever worked in a professional kitchen? Everyone yells, especially when you're in the weeds. It comes with the territory.
That's such bull & I've worked in many kitchens – it does happen, but not at the point of degrading, nor insulting nor lack of respect. We need to go back and read the Culinary Code unless u personally never heard of it!!!
Question: why is it pronounced oh-ce-AH-no? In Spanish it is "océano." Granted, the name doesn't have an accent, but it sounds odd, especially in San Juan.
Chef Anne, You've been chopped!! Too much screaming & belittling. Not entertaining at all. Your blood pressure must be 240/140.
She's ridiculous. Hear her yell and scream…they cook poorly…some give up during service…then they pull through…they all thank and hug their staff and one gets picked. Same thing…every episode. I just want to tell her to shhhhhhhh. And I am a Type A extrovert for heavens sake and she drives ME crazy. Just shhhhhhhhh
Don't watch the show problem solved.
I love this show….but Anne does yell and scream a lot. Could one of you please explain to me what the term "all day" means when the chef is calling out the ticket orders or what ever? They say things like "4 scallops all day" etc. Thank you in advance.
"all day" refers to how many total of an item is needed for all of the tickets that the cooks are working on.
Elegance? WIth an owner who has bad teeth and a manager who looks like that??? Excuse me…well, Anne go ahead and try to be like Chef Ramsey….it DOES NOT SUIT YOU!

Nip/Tuck will start cutting again in mid-October. That news comes courtesy of the FX executive session at the Television Critics Association press tour on Friday (Aug. 7). Nip/Tuck will open its sixth season on Wednesday, Oct. 14 and run for 10 episodes, which will take the show into December; the final nine episodes will likely air sometime next year.

With an absolutely stunning photograph Rose McGowan is featured on the cover of Bloomingdale's new catalog. Read on for further details on the new campaign.
For decades, Hollywood has featured Bloomingdale's in films like Moscow on the Hudson, Splash and The Mirror Has Two Faces. Now, Bloomingdale's is returning the favor.
Bloomingdale's, a division of Macy's Inc., is celebrating the movies in the 2009 version of a major promotion staged each fall. The campaign, intended to stimulate demand during an important shopping season, is called "Lights, Camera, Fashion" and is being billed as the most elaborate since Bloomingdale's began a series of themed fall promotions several years ago that has included art and music.
The campaign includes "Bflix," five shorts that Bloomingdale's commissioned through an organization called Young Indies Films, created by up-and-coming writers and directors. The shorts will be shown in viewing lounges to be set up in Bloomingdale's stores as well as on its Web site (bloomingdales.com).
60+ new photos, largely HQs, have been added in the gallery from yesterday's HFPA Luncheon. Being a huge fan of both Rose and Warren Beatty, I have to say that I am delighted to see the two pictured together! I want to say special thanks to Lisa for making this update possible!
Also, you can view a little video from the event here. Thanks to Blake for the heads-up!
Edit: Style info courtesy of Red Carpet Fashion Awards:
Rose opted for a white jersey cap sleeve Balenciaga Resort 2009 dress.
The fitted dress is printed with rows of tiny black dots, and is gathered on the hip and bodice giving Rose's curves even more definition.
She paired her dress with a dazzling embellished clutch and tan pumps.

The Hollywood Foreign Press Association presented $1,249,000 in financial grants to 29 film schools and non-profit organizations at its annual Installation Luncheon honoring the organization's 2009-2010 slate of officers today at the Beverly Hills Hotel.
Rose McGowan joined HFPA President Philip Berk to announce grants. Acceptance remarks on behalf of the grants were made by Warren Beatty (The Film Foundation), Jordana Brewster (Lollipop Theatre Network), Hugh Dancy (Outfest), Carla Gugino (Inner-City Arts), Rex Lee (Coalition of Asian Pacifics in Entertainment), Eva Longoria Parker (National Association of Latino Independent Producers), Dylan McDermott (FilmAid International), Chris Pine (UCLA), Jason Reitman (Los Angeles Conservancy), Emmy Rossum (California Summer School for the Arts Foundation), Kerry Washington (Film Independent) and Evan Rachel Wood (CSU Northridge).
Ms. McGowan is currently attending and hosting Hollywood Foreign Press Association's Annual Installation Luncheon 2009 in Beverly Hills. The pictures are just being released and I've added the first ones in the gallery. Rose is looking darling in a polkadot cocktail dress. Love her cute & classy look and it is so nice to see her out and about for the first time in a few months!
Just a few hours ago Rose posted the following on her Twitter:
Holy crap!co- Hosting an awards thing. Thought it would be 60 people. It's 300 with tons of camera crews etc a big deal. I'm so scared
Good luck hosting, Rose!

True the scouts do not teach survival training as such, but they do teach skills which would be helpful, knots, fires, shelters etc. It gives a solid foundation to build on.
An edugeek camping and Fishing trip and @nephilim or any one else can teach us these skills.... I'd be interested as long as it wasn't too far away
Too bad, it will be in the harshest part of the highlands during the middle of winter!
Having been on survival training on both the Brecon Beacons and Dartmoor I know that creating a snug bivouac is not that difficult The trick is finding enough to eat. For tribes that still rely on a degree of hunter/gathering it is normal for the men to go off hunting, whilst the women gather berries, nuts and whatever else you can gather. No prizes for guessing which sex contributes most towards the pantry?
I recon order will be restablished inside of a month at most. I think desease and famine will be the biggest killers during the first couple of years a society shifts back to be more agricultural based and large cities down size. I don't think danger from looters and anarchists would last all that long to be a significant threat to life, and I think hunting would probably land you in serious trouble with the miltary state (end of a noose?). For shelter - there's nothing wrong with existing housing stock. For food - rationing would be back for the better part of a decade.
There's almost certainly offline desiel/gas backup generators that'd get electricity back to key stratigic areas that will allow government to continue functioning. And it wouldn't take that long to rebuild working gas/coal generators for the national grid.
In evolutionary terms, it's probably set us back 50-60 years at best.
Sorry - I don't think you'll be living in caves, hunting wild berries while fending off the zombie apocalypse. You'd be very unlucky if you survived any event that threw the would that far back!
Last edited by tmcd35; 18th March 2014 at 09:11 AM.
Yes you would be unlucky in that scenario, but that would be a World War 3 type of scenario where Tsar Bombs and H Bombs were used.
Tsar Bomba was a 50 Megaton device that has to be dropped from a plane and so powerful the Russians daren't test another (they were going to make it a 100 megaton yield but bottled it). Nuclear bombs are yesterday's news, ICBMs and tactical missiles are the current threat launched from concealed facilities and hidden submarines.
Would anyone even care about Martial Law? I think plenty of people would ignore it entirely. It wouldn't return us to the stone age, no, and society wouldn't completely fall apart, but it wouldn't just be something we could mop up overnight. How would we get our military forces overseas home without power? We'd have to stick them on boats - and not ships, because they require power, so sailboats.
What did we do pre-1792? Before the telegraph? How did we fight the American Revolution War?and B) How would they even communicate that order?
Some oaf empowered by the state points a gun at you... you ignore him?Would anyone even care about Martial Law? I think plenty of people would ignore it entirely.
Might not be fluid, but lines of communication can easilly be re-established (messangers on horseback (Okay push-bikes)). We're not exactly the largest of land masses.Again, communication would be sporadic where it would or wouldn't work, so getting out government mandated rations wouldn't be too fluid.
It's also were I have a problem. For it to be a real issue, then pretty much the whole globe has to be effected. Other wise, why doesn't aid agencies and the UN swoop down and rescue us? For an event to take out all the electricity aross the the entire globe - As species we'd be extremely unlucky to survive what ever it was.True, but the idea I got from this thread was an EMP-type-incident that knackered all machineries, so backup generators wouldn't work (though I'd guess manual ones would)
About the only thing capable, without wiping out the species, is a freak solar flaire. If that happened. Would it also take out a switched off desiel powered backup generator in Parliaments basements? Might not last very long, but long enough to re-establish some kind of order?
If you add police, regular and reserve armed forces together, we have about 500,000 potential personnel who could enforce martial law. 50k of that are probably deployed somewhere other than the UK though.
However, 450k people is plenty to enforce martial law on our small isle.
That said, they'd still have the issue of transport and communication. They don't have a lot of horses any more. But, that just means communication is slow rather than not possible.

As I understand it there are two phase's.
Phase 1 is
50Mb -> 100Mb
100Mb -> 120Mb
Phase 2
is 50Mb -> 120Mb which is why 120MB are getting the bill reduced to the 50MB package.

There are people on 100Mb already. They get bumped to 120Mb
When I do that checker thing it states it won't happen until October to June 2013 so although they are meant to be starting this as of February 2012 it may be sometime before it happens Im guessing ?
Yet when you do a post code checker as though you are a new user it states you can get 100mbps with virgin media so why can't they just upgrade me automatically I have no idea.
When they installed it - it was just a config thing so your hub points to a different server or something like that ref being on 20, 30, 50 mbps , I remember the engineer mentioning and talking to someone on the phone and stating to put us on the DOCSIS 3.0 server or someit.
Might be a bit more complicated then that though :)
Replacing my router is on my list of things to do. The superhub is appallingly bad.
Think I may end up buying another Zyxel one.
I must be one of the lucky ones as I've never had any issues with the Netgear router they supplied. Admittedly it's not dual band but there isn't much wireless traffic from the neighbours either. I'm pretty glad they are doing the free speed upgrade as they tried to sell me 20Mb (currently on 10Mb) before Christmas :)
Is there anyway to test and see :
1. If neighbours routers are or have there wi fi at max power which is drowning out my wireless
2. what channels they are using so I can decipher what the best channel would be
3. how have you configured your wireless on your superhub @mthomas08

There is an argument that "The Infamous" is better than "Reasonable Doubt". But I can not put it over "ILLmatic or Ready To Die".
There is an argument that "The Infamous" is better than "Reasonable Doubt". But I can not put it over "ILLmatic or Ready To Die".
It's crazy that Matty C who introduced Puff to Big was the executive producer of "The Infamous", he was also responsible for doing Big's unsigned hype article. Anyways, that's cool Big like "Temperature's Rising" cause it's easily one of my fav's off the album. The storytellin was dope. I also loved the fact that they admitted "The Infamous" did influence Cuban Linx and that the recording of "Eye for an Eye" lead to "Verbal Intercourse". Mind you this album had Rae on 2 tracks and Ghost too. Both articles were great, Complex did a good job. Amazing album. When you think about it Mobb is more underrated than anything. This is why my generation holds on to these albums. Will any of you guys from this generation be able to go back 17 years and play the stuff now straight through like "The Infamous"?, doubtful.
*~queenbee~* wrote: »I love that whole album except for that God awful track Right Back You with Raekwon and Ghostface.
I wouldn't compare The Infamous to any other album that dropped around that time because to me they are all equally classics. Aside from RD, RTD, OB4CL, Illmatic, etc., all having an unique east coast sound they brought something different to the culture.

The action takes place at Fort Neal, Louisiana, a base for black soldiers during WWII. Sgt. Waters (Adolph Caesar), a tough African-American topkick and manager of the baseball team, is coming back to the base drunk one night when he is shot to death by a .45-caliber weapon. That's the only clue
to his death. Capt. Dav...
Tensions flare in this gripping film about a murder on a black army base near the end of World War II. Captain Davenport (Howard E. Rollins, Jr.), a proud black army attorney, is sent to Fort Neal, Louisiana, to investigate the ruthless shooting death of Sergeant Waters (Adolph Caesar). Through interviews with Sarge's men, Davenport learns that he was a vicious man who served the white world and despised his own roots. Was the killer a bigoted white officer? Or could he have been a black soldier embittered by Waters' constant race baiting? Directed by Norman Jewison from Charles Fuler's Pulitzer Prize- winning play, A SOLDIER'S STORY is both a spellbinding mystery and a superb drama that transcends race.
Captain Davenport (Howard E. Rollins Jr.) questions Wilkie (Art Evans) leading into a flashback sequence exposing the character of Sergeant Waters (Adolph Caesar) in A Soldier's Story 1984.
Captain Davenport (Howard E. Rollins Jr.) deposes Private Peterson (Denzel Washington) who recalls a baseball game starring CJ (Larry Riley) in Norman Jewison's A Soldier's Story, 1984.
A Soldier's Story -- Murder and racism on a black military base in the South, from the Pulitzer Prize-winning play. Starring Denzel Washington and Howard E. Rollins, Jr.

A pair of plums
"Plums and Glass" | 6″x6″ | oil on gesso board | purchase here
After finishing over 300 paintings, I've covered a pretty wide range of subjects. Poking through my archives, I can find pets, fruit and veggies, portraits, mountains, boats, figures, seagulls, trees, pastries, and even the occasional parrot. But even so, there a few subjects that I avoid at all costs. Babies, for one. Paintings of babies are always one misplaced brushstroke away from an offended parent. And glass – oh, how I've avoided glass.
I finally tried painting some clear glass a couple of weeks ago at Carol Marine's workshop. While it wasn't exactly easy, it turns out that it wasn't too hard either. Glass, like this small vase, is made up of shapes, values, and colors just like anything else you might care to paint. And the only real challenge is being able to really see these shapes, values and colors without your brain getting in the way.
Summer Tomatoes
"Summer Tomatoes" | 6″x6″ | oil on gesso board | purchase here
Two weeks ago, I finally got the chance to fulfill one of my painting dreams…taking a workshop with daily painter Carol Marine! It's something that I'd wanted to do since I first stumbled upon her fresh, contemporary impressionist paintings sometime last year. So when she announced that she was planning another workshop, my painter friend Sheila Arora and I jumped at the chance.
The workshop was everything I'd imagined and more. We spent the week watching demos, asking questions, and practicing new techniques. And I actually came home with two small paintings that I'm extremely proud of (which is definitely not a given when you're learning some new techniques). Carol also inspired me to incorporate more daily painting into my life, which is something that I've been meaning to do for a while.
I feel like I've been neglecting the painting part of my brain these past several months since I've been so overwhelmed with launching my ketubah and marriage certificate business, Ink with Intent. But now that the wedding season is finally winding down (woo hoo!), I'm ready to dive headfirst back into painting. It feels good to be back in front of my easel!
"Dog on a Walk" – The Complete Collection
Do you remember when I set off on a mission to create a series of paintings capturing the best part of any dog's day? Tons of lovely people submitted their photos, and selecting the ones to use was a hard, hard task. But I finally narrowed it down to my 14 favorites, and began painting like there's no tomorrow.
Now I'm excited to present my completed "Dog on a Walk" series! Click on each picture to see more detail.
These small paintings will be selling for $100-$175 each depending on the size. They'll be available for purchase at Bad Dog Frida as part of Madison's Gallery Night on May 2, 2014. But after that event, I will make them available on my website for purchase.
I cannot say thank you enough to everyone who took the time to look through their photos and share snippets of their lives with me. Whether or not I ended up using your picture, I was truly inspired by everything that came my way.
He was eying my lunch
On Saturday, I had the great fortune of attending a painting workshop by one of my favorite contemporary painters, Shelby Keefe. To say I was star-struck is a bit of an understatement. When I walked into her studio, I started acting like a 13-year old who had just scored back-stage passes to a N'Sync concert (did I just date myself?)
She started the day by demoing her signature painting technique. I was fascinated to learn that she starts each piece with a wash of acrylic paint in bold, vibrant colors. I'd used this technique in the past, but never with such a saturated under-painting. The results are magical. Her contemporary impressionist pieces take my breath away. Here's the painting that she whipped out in first hour and a half of class. Jealous much?
In the second part of the workshop, we all took out our paints and tried to apply her techniques to our own work. I had decided to work off a photo I snapped on a trip to San Francisco a few years back. We had been sitting behind the Ferry Building enjoying a feast of french macaroons, local yogurt and house-made granola (we were going to do this California Cuisine thing right), when a seagull began pacing back and forth in front of our table eying our food. The photo I took had some wonderful shapes with the bike, railing and shadows.
I spent the next four hours sketching out my composition, mixing colors, and trying to apply the lessons I'd learned from Shelby's demo. I'm actually really happy with how it came out!
Thanks Shelby for a completely wonderful day of painting!
Pet Portraits – Yep, I still do them!
Is it just me, or has it been ages since I last shared some of my recent pet portraits?
Oh, I've still been painting them. In fact, today I shipped my 150th pet portrait. Woo!
Here are a few portraits that have made their way out of my studio over the last few weeks.

3 New Oils + An Interview
Ever since I started my second business last month selling ketubot and marriage certificates, free time has suddenly become much harder to find. I'm hoping that once I settle in to the rhythms of juggling three jobs (I also do consulting work), things will get a bit easier. That said, I'm not really that stressed. For starters, I love all three of the things I do, so spending time on them never feels that much like work. And then there's the fact that I started doing yoga three weeks ago. After spending an hour twisting myself into pretzels, I have a hard time getting worked up into a panic.
This week, I worked on three little oil paintings.
I was eating dumplings at Paul's Pelmeni with my friend Kendra (p.s. if you ever have a craving for beef and potato stuffed packets smothered in butter, curry, hot sauce and sour cream, THIS is your place), when I noticed how great the lighting was and how amazing her hair looked. Her hair always looks amazing, but it looked particularly fabulous that day. She was kind enough to let me snap a few photos, and I later turned them into my second portrait in oils. I know it's not perfect, but I'm pretty happy with how it turned out. Besides, the only way to learn is to do something new over and over and over again. Thanks for lending me your beautiful face, Kendra!

A few days later, I snapped some photos of my friend Jackie and her quirky husky Kayak while we were at the dog park. While I took this photo, my dog Copernicus was locked in my car, and I could feel him shooting daggers into my back with his eyes. Once he got to romp around in the snow, all was forgiven. It's going to be a part of my "Dog on a Walk" series. P.S. This girl has her own business hand-making ceramic home-wares. I am so, so, so obsessed with her collection. I suggest that maybe you pop on over there and treat yourself to your next favorite mug.

On Sunday, I met my friend Amber in downtown Madison to have some brunch and wander around aimlessly. This, of course, quickly turned into me chasing down strangers with cute dogs to take their picture. Amber rolled with it — I'm lucky to have friends who put up with how weird I am. I snapped this photo of a super nice guy on the way to the park with his Labradoodle, Gunter. Gunter was in a hurry to get there, but he was kind enough to let me snap a few pictures first. I'm experimenting with trying to pack more detail into these tiny paintings. By picking busier scenes, it's forcing me to learn how to let the stuff in the background be more abstract. I swear, you learn something new with every painting. This is also part of my "Dog on a Walk" series.
"Gunter Does Madison" | 6″x6″ | oil on gesso board
The other big news from this week is that last night, the amazing Michelle Ward interviewed me as part of her Grown Up Gigs free event! Mine was the first live interview of many, so I highly encourage you to sign up and see what else is on the docket. I got to chat with her about how I got started as an artist, my biggest set backs and successes, and what advice I have for people who are just starting to sell their hand-made goods. You can watch the whole thing here, if you're interested.


text: veritus4, certainly there are those who see a family as "a community which primarily stems out of intimate man and woman relationship." But, as you may have noticed, that is far from the universal definition. Another common option includes "one or more adults raising one or more children." A third option is "two or more blood relatives (usually, but since adopted children may be included, not exclusively), possibly including several generations" -- admittedly not a nuclear family (which is what I understand you are referring to), but still a quite common use of the term family.

Fulcrum Red Heat rear DH wheel$200 USD
Just bought an NS Fuzz that has the new 157 DH spacing so I'm looking to sell my Fulcrum Red Heat rear wheel (150mm spacing). Full disclosure, the rim has a decent flat spot but the hub/bearings are in perfect condition and the spoke tension is still good, never a broken spoke or anything. Great wheel but of no use to me anymore. Message if interested!
