The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

I'd been hearing a lot about Picasa 2 lately so I decided to try it out. I don't do a lot of photo editing and have always had Photoshop or Macromedia Fireworks around when I needed to touch some things up or resize some images to send by e-mail. However, both of these programs are complete overkill for what I do with images. Picasa 2 is available as a free download from Google (http://www.picasa.com). The blurb from the website gives the best overall descrtiption::
"Picasa is software that helps you instantly find, edit and share all the pictures on your PC. Every time you open Picasa, it automatically locates all your pictures (even ones you forgot you had) and sorts them into visual albums organized by date with folder names you will recognize. You can drag and drop to arrange your albums and make labels to create new groups. Picasa makes sure your pictures are always organized."
Picasa 2 is an easy to use, lightweight program that makes it easy and pleasant for a home user to organize, share and edit their pictures.
Using Picasa2
The first time you run Picasa 2, it asks if it can scan your hard drive for pictures. You can specify whether the software can scan the whole hard drive or just "My Documents, Desktop, My Pictures". I chose the latter and Picasa 2 started its scan. As it scanned, it created entries on its left navigation bar for the folders that it found.
There are 3 main areas to the interface. Vertically on the left hand side, there is the Folder List. The "main" window, to the right, is called the Lightbox. Along the bottom is a frame that contains the Picture Tray.
Folder List
The Folder List displays all the images that Picasa 2 is aware of. It organizes items by date and folder name. It also will display any "albums" that you've created. The Folder List provides an easy way to navigate through all of your pictures. There are also lots of options on the context-sensitive menu (by right clicking) so that you can rename, move folders and images around, start a slideshow, or hide the folder.
One side note - if you don't have the time set correctly on your camera, the dates shown in the Folder List will not be what you expect. Picasa 2 looks at the image details, created by the camera (EXIF data), not the date you copied your pictures to the computer to determine the "age" of the images.
The Lightbox fills most of the space of the window. It displays all the thumbnails in all of the folders or albums that you've set up. The Folder List (on the left) is a good way to navigate around the Lightbox. If you click on a folder on the left, the Lightbox scrolls to the appropriate folder.
There is also a search box at the top of the Lightbox. By default, the search box is just that. However, there's a little icon to the right of th search box that expands a window to allow more advanced searching. One of my favorite advanced search features is a slider that lets you specify how recent the pictures can be in the Lightbox. It defaults to "All" images, but can be moved down the most recent set of pics (for instance, I could view pictures as recent as 2 days old, since that was the last date of the pictures I had taken).
On each folder or album available in the Lightbox, there are a set of Actions, by dropping down a menu on the right side of the "title" bar of each folder. This Actions menu allows the same functions as right clicking on the folder in the Folder List.
A main purpose of the Lightbox is to select images to add to the Picture Tray. You can either Ctrl-click to select specific images, you can click-drag to select several pictures, or you can select an image and click the Hold button in the Picture Tray to keep it there.
You can also double-click an image to view that image. From this screen, you can apply any edits or filters that you would like.
Picture Tray
The Picture Tray is a "holding area" for images that you'd like to work with. Once you have a set of pictures that you'd like to manage, there are several functions that you can do to the whole group.
1. Label them as a new album, or add them to an existing album
2. Apply rotation -- clockwise and counterclockwise
3. Print
4. Email -- use Gmail or other email client to send pictures
5. Create a collage
6. Use Hello to instant message them to someone -- another Google service
7. Post them to your Blogger blog
8. Order prints from an online provider. You can choose between walmart.com, Shutterfly, Ritz or Wolf Camera, Ofoto, or Snapfish.
9. Export (allows you to resize and edit image quality to optimize for the web or email)
Picture Manipulation
When you double-click on an image, a new view opens up to let you do some basic fixing and editing for pictures. One interesting thing is that if you make changes to your pictures with Picasa 2, it doesn't actually change the image on your hard drive. You can always open up the picture in another editor and it will be just like the original. Picasa 2 saves a simple text file that describes the how and what of the edits that were applied to the picture. If you want to save your changes permanently in a new file, you can "Save a Copy".
There are three categories of tools for picture editing: Basic Fixes, Tuning, and Effects. The best way to learn these features is just try them out. Remember, you can always undo anything and it won't change the original file.
Basic Editing
Picasa 2 is a great program for the home user to modify, organize and share pictures. It's easy to learn, hard to mess things up and the user interface is fun and pretty. There are enough image editing and manipulation features to let a home user play around with "lite" versions" of some of the effects and fixes that imaging professionals apply to their photographs. The download is also free. I'd highly encourage anyone to download the application and give it a try. It doesn't take very long to learn and if you don't like it, you haven't lost any money.

My Top Ten Favorite RPG
January 6, 2009 at 7:47 pm
Back to Profile
Send Message
Happy New Year!!! Sorry for the delay of the Top Ten series.
RPG is one of my favorite video game genre of all of time. The fact that I have to thinking before I can even execute a move is the main thing that I like about video games. Other genres of games are good for hacking and slashing or pummeling enemies with combos but some doesn't display a good amount of replay value like a
RPG should have.
10. Blue Dragon (360)
Blue Dragon is the RPG based on the anime, Blue Dragon. There is no random encounter in this game because you can see your encounter and choose to avoid them. I also like the great amount of spells and roles you can play in this game, according to the shadows that are assigned to each player.
9. Dark Cloud (PS2)
An adventure RPG mix is always good for the business because it should great motivation and creativity. Dark Cloud is a great example of this. When I was 13, I played this game every chance I got.
8. Golden Sun (GBA)
Golden Sun is a beautiful RPG for the GameBoy Advance with great graphics and scene. This two part game is great for their spells that can be mixed and matched according to the spirits that you attached to the character.
7. Mega Man X: Command Mission (PS2)
The day that Mega Man became a RPG was a veru interesting day for me. I was late playing this game; I got it from my roommate in college. But I was kind of nervous about it at first, it did have some great abilities and an impressive storyline. This game I do go back and play every now and again.
6. Paper Mario 64 (N64)
Paper Mario?! Yes, Paper Mario. This game was my RPG on the Nintendo 64 and my favorite on the Nintendo 64 for great reasons. Unique gameplay, mechanics like badges, partners and star summons and a great storyline are what makes Paper Mario a great RPG.
5. Xenosega (PS2)
All three episodes of Xenosega were great. But the sadness began when I had to wait until I had the money for the next episode. This game, in my opinion, is more tactical than strategy but I like it.
4. Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars (NES)
Ha ha, Mario in a RPG. That must have been a great day for us gamers. But, for me, I wasn't aware of this game until it came out for the Virtual Console. I like this game for it the unique choice of technique for each Mario character as well as the non-Mario related characters such as Mallow and Geno.
3. Pokemon Diamond&Pearl(DS)
No one can go wrong with Pokemon, this game involves tactial turn-based style of gameplay with very extraordinary creatures. I have played every pokemon game there is and I have to say that Espeon is my favorite pokemon in the series.
2. Final Fantasy XII (PS2)
Final Fantasy has been my favorite RPG for quite some time; but not this time. It has a compelling storyline with an unique level-up system and great characters to play and interact with. But, surprisingly, there is a game out there that I found better than Final Fantasy.
1. Lost Odyssey (360)
Lost Odyssey has been, so far, the best RPG I have played. Nothing compares to this game. It has style with immortals that can learn the skills of their mortal teammates but "Skill Link." It also makes sure that you don't over train with a twick in the level-up system.
This game, as well as other games, will be played over and over again for years to come. Thanks for reading!!
If you like to see a list on the series, please e-mail me with your ideas.

When talking about how life has changed over the last five years, I can look back
and say that I truly did not expect to be where I am today. At this time, back in 2005, I was
sitting in a prison bed, locked up, and learning a valuable lesson! While being there, I had
nothing but time to think about my past and what I could do to change the direction of where I
was heading. I decided when I was released that changing my environment would be the most
helpful to me. With that, I left prison, moved to Leander, TX, and I started my life again. A few
months later, I met Colt, and we have been together ever since. I think Colt is the reason I have
had such an ability to change what I want out of life. I decided to go to college, and a year later
here I am. I think that the evolution that led me to where I am now is my maturity level has gone
up, and sometimes I feel like I am a whole new person.
I think that some of the reason I am the way I am today is because of Bandura's theory
of "modeling therapy." I got to see in prison (firsthand) all the women that were acting like I
had been acting in the past, and to me, it was a very powerful motivation tool to change my life.
Seeing other people heading the same way you are heading can be helpful to help change your
life, if that is what you want. I have also had to learn more self-control to help me not be so
impulsive like I used to be. I try to keep behavioral diaries for my smoking because I am trying
to quit. I can see that I smoke the most when I am just waking up, and after meals. With that
knowledge, when it comes time to quit, I am going to have a better chance to quit because
I know when my weakest times are. I also find it very helpful to make self-contracts. When I
accomplish a goal, I reward myself, and when I do not accomplish a goal, I try to punish myself
in different ways. I have found this...

The elimination round of EuroBasket 2011, an international competition pitting 24 European countries against each other with the top two teams qualifying for the Olympics, started started today. With real live basketball action featuring a number of NBA players taking place, I thought now would be the perfect time to a break from looking at the NBA's season leftovers and look at some of the best and worst plays of EuroBasket's second round. To check out last week's post on the first round, click here.
Off-ball Movement Sets Up Lithuania's Pick-and-Rolls
We already know that Lithuania loves their pick-and-rolls, as they ran it 30+ times in at least two of their games in this year's EuroBasket tournament. Fighting for seeding, Lithuania needed a win, and late in the game they found themselves trying to pull away from Germany. To do that, they used the pick-and-roll. However, it was some movement away from that action that freed up Jonas Valanciunas for his two big dunks on the roll to the rim:
We pick up this possession as Jonas Valanciunas gets in position to set a ball screen for his teammate. Valanciunas' defender, Chris Kaman, is going to step up and hedge on the screen, relying on his teammate's help defense in the corner to try and stop Valanciunas as he rolls to the rim.

I am going to put the 36" Whitehaven into my kitchen and I was hoping to get some input regarding the faucet. I know this is a pretty deep sink and want to make sure I get a faucet with an appropriate depth reach. So, what faucet did you choose and are you happy with it? Is there a lot of splash back from it? What suggestions do you have? I have budgeted $500-$700 for my faucet.
Thanks so much! |

we are very happy with our hansgrohe Talis C taps although ours are paired with a 30" whitehaven. The size is proportionate, it has nice action/feel and has a clean but not modern look. Also, it has a smaller sized unit that works well for a prep sink. caspian |
Caspian101, do you think the depth of the arch and the reach of the sprayer would be sufficient for the 36". I know the two sink sizes are the same in depth. There are a few high arch faucets that I am considering but was a little concerned they wouldn't reach out enough. Thank you! |

White House/Downtown
Mandarin Oriental, Washington D.C.
Washington, D.C., 20024, United States
You could be forgiven for misidentifying this Mandarin outpost, opened in 2004 and gorgeously set on the Tidal Basin, as some sort of Pan-Asian embassy. The Far East sensibility is all-encompassing, with the effect of breathing freshness and calm into D.C.'s traditional, harried landscape. Classical Chinese and Thai artworks decorate the hallways, and most of the 400 feng shui-aligned guest rooms are outfitted with Japanese paper-shaded lamps, silk tapestries, and bamboo plants. The spa offers treatments like Oriental Foot Therapy and a Japanese cherry-blossom body scrub, and Café MoZU serves excellent sushi and sashimi. Even the hotel's lounge—where a mural of China's last empress presides over tables full of guests sipping cucumber-sake margaritas—continues the motif. In fact, the only part of the property that ventures beyond the Asian aesthetic is the formal restaurant CityZen, where French Laundry alumnus Eric Ziebold's menu spans the globe.
Room to Book:
All standard rooms here are basically the same size, but you can pick your view: City rooms look out over the Jefferson Memorial; Water rooms look out over the Potomac or the Tidal Basin.Insider Tip:
Ask about packages that include access to some of the city's best kid-friendly attractions—including the National Zoo and Christmastime Nutcracker performances by the Washington Ballet.

Our Work
"I know that many suggest we are going down a slippery slope that will have no moral boundaries. To those who truly harbor such fears, I can only say this: Let us look less to the sky to see what might fall; rather, let us look to each other … and rise."
-Judge Michael McShane, U.S. District Court for the District of Oregon
Last September, we built an interactive website for Class Size Counts, a non-profit, statewide organization of parents, teachers, students and voters advocating for smaller class sizes in Washington's public schools. As part of a grassroots effort to raise awareness about the size of Washington's public school classes – Washington currently ranks 47th in the nation – volunteers, teachers, parents, and others counted students in their classrooms and submitted their findings, and personal stories, to the site. Over the course of just a few months, more than 5,000 classes were counted, making for an astounding visual on the state of Washington's class sizes.
The site that the Winning Mark team developed for Class Size Counts created just the kind of buzz and interest we were hoping for as we launched a grass-roots project. With very little paid promotion, the site attracted over 35,000 unique visitors, and 5,300 of those signed on as supporters our campaign.
Class Size Counts has just filed their initiative and is now collecting signatures to get I-1351 on the ballot. To learn more about the initiative (and if you're in Washington, to submit a class size) visit classsizecountswa.com.
Today I went looking for the date when a few Twitter accounts were created. This is data you can get from the Twitter API, but you need an OAuth application. You can create new applications on the Twitter Developer Site at https://dev.twitter.com/apps.
Or you can explore the Twitter API (and ask for things like "created_at" date for specific Twitter usernames) using this simple console on the Twitter developer site, created provided by @apigee.
The console creates Oauth credentials for you by connecting a Twitter account, then you use the tool to create queries and you get back results like this:
This week we helped Oregon United for Marriage promote some historic news: All 3 major professional sports teams in Portland endorsed the campaign. The Portland Trail Blazers became the first NBA team to endorse the freedom to marry.
This was an exciting opportunity and one that provided an excellent example of how campaigns can effectively combine hashtags, @mentions, location and the "add people" function on Instagram.
We designed a series of creative elements for the campaign to use across Facebook, Twitter and Instagram. While effective Facebook promotion requires several different sizes of each creative element, and cover images for web sliders, Facebook pages and Twitter profiles also require different sizes, when it comes to sharing images on Twitter and Instagram, your best bet is to design creative that is square.
Campaigns share images like this on Instagram to get the creative seen, interacted with and shared. Instagram provides tools specifically designed for this: hashtags, @mentions, location and using the "add people" function to tag other Instagram profiles in the post. [click to continue…]

High court halts new Texas electoral maps
December 9, 2011 - 7:21 PM
WASHINGTON (AP) — The Supreme Court has blocked the use of Texas state legislative and congressional district maps that were drawn by federal judges to boost minorities' voting power.
The court issued a brief order Friday that applies to electoral maps drawn by federal judges in San Antonio for the Texas Legislature and Congress. The justices say they will hear arguments in the case on Jan. 9.
Texas says that the judges overstepped their authority and should have taken into account the electoral maps that were drawn by the Republican-dominated Texas Legislature.

Audio Technology Transforms Museums
Jun 1, 2009 12:00 PM, By Dan Daley
Integrating sound into modern displays calls for innovative solutions.
Choosing loudspeakers is also a function of how large and tight a perimeter you need to establish. Polly says the highly concentrated beams from the Audio Spotlight and American Technology's HSS loudspeaker are best if only one viewer at a time is interacting with an exhibit. If the space can accommodate more, he'll use the Dakota's cardioid (heart-shaped) reproduction pattern or the pancake pattern of the Brown Innovations SonicBeam 24, which covers a larger area, but drops off dramatically within a very short throw from the point source.
"We've even made our own focused-beam speaker solutions," Polly says. "The point is, there are a number of solutions available that you can use to fit each situation as perfectly as possible."

Great Wide Open
Not all museums are indoors. The Springs Preserve in Las Vegas is a 180-acre park that commemorates the city's dynamic history and looks forward to a sustainable future. The site is named for provided water to ancient Native Americans and later to settlers traveling west. BBI Engineering of San Francisco was asked to create a soundscape inside a large faux canyon.
"The real challenge here was the sheer scale of it," says Phil Bailey, a principal of BBI. "There was an enormous amount of cabling to run to cover a wide area, about a half an acre in total. We ran very heavy Belden 12-gauge wire in conduit underground from the control room in the museum building to various distribution points on the canyon grounds, then ran Belden 16-gauge wire from there to over 60 speakers scattered around the property."
Bogen Near A6T loudspeakers were chosen for their weather-resistance in what is a hot, dry, and occasionally turbulent meteorological environment. The audio program—eight discrete tracks playing continuously from a BBI 4MP3-MSC MP3 player through a pair of QSC CX602V 70V amplifiers—was created from actual recordings of the type of wildlife found in the region, which includes buzzards and coyotes. The loud¬speakers are distributed in such a way that a visitor will hear between four and six of the eight discrete audio programs at a time. Rather than camouflaging the loud¬speakers to look like rocks, BBI chose to hide them within the landscape, behind real rocks and with carefully cut openings to port the sound.
The audio program is by definition hypernatural; it would be odd for all of the sound sources to occur simultaneously in the wild because some animals are nocturnal and others are diurnal. But to achieve a comprehensive aural effect, the programs run together to keep it interesting for the visitor, but they are also positioned according to the type of sound they'll be used for.
"If the program calls for bird sounds, the speakers will be located off the ground on a boulder or an outcropping," Bailey says. "If the sounds are ground-dwelling critters, the speakers are hidden on the ground among the rocks."

I put in several starter plants I purchased locally 4 or 5 years ago. They did great. Multiplied and grew to 12 to 14 feet. I was out in the yard on Sunday and I think all but a recent addition have died. What could have happened? I detected some signs of field mice. Could they have diseased the plants or destroyed the roots? |
Follow-Up Postings:
It's hard to diagnose without photos and more detail. Did they just die overnight, or was it a long process? I've heard of nesting/digging rodents destroying grasses by damaging the crown, but I don't think it's an immediate process. |

Everyday Maps for Everyday Use
Tom Morton-Smith's intriguing play - part of the Papatango New Writing Festival - probes the place where sexual fantasy and reality meet.
Skye Lourie and Harry Lister Smith in Everyday Maps for Everyday Use at the Finborough Theatre, London Photo: Richard Davenport
Maggie, a troubled teenage girl, has taken to dancing in the dark, communing with the hot thing she believes is buried beneath the dirt, seeking escape from herself through sex. The play is set in Woking, the site of HG Wells' Martian invasion, and the exploration of alien terrain is a recurring theme. Behrooz is an artist and astronomer who creates work based on the surface of Mars, while his friend from university, John, is also a cartographer, though of less distant landscapes. Maggie's mother Corrine is an explorer of sorts as well, though only in the bedroom - a sexual questing.
Morton-Smith's play is at its best when charting the borderlands of sexual desire and contains some beautiful, startling passages of writing but there are far too many tangled strands for a play of this length. Instead of being a pleasingly dense work, a pleasure to unpick, some of the most interesting characters are left on the peripheries, frustratingly underdeveloped (Harry Lister Smith's endearing Kiph is a case in point). There's a failure to convince in some of the characters' interactions and though the complex relationship between Maggie - played with suitably adolescent intensity by Skye Lourie - and her mother is engagingly shaded, there's more than a touch of the manic pixie to Maggie's fragility.

The Global Intelligence Files
On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

Macedonia PM, Opposition Fail to Reach Election Date Deal
After a marathon face-to-face meeting that lasted until late on Tuesday,
the heads of Macedonia's two main political parties failed to reach a deal
on a date for early elections.
Sinisa Jakov Marusic
Following the eight hour talks, opposition leader Branko Crvenkovski of
the Social Democrats said that his party would continue its boycott of the
parliament until all of its demands had been met.
Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski, head of the ruling VMRO DPMNE, said the
government is willing to accept a**most of the demandsa** but added that
if there is no agreement he may call early elections without the consent
of the opposition.
a**After we accept their demands it is up to them to decide whether or not
they will take part in the elections. We do not exclude the possibility of
going forward with elections despite their boycott,a** Gruevski said.
Crvenkovski informed that they failed to reach a deal regarding
improvements to electoral laws, cleaning-up of the voter register and
removing the names of the deceased, and the unblocking of the accounts of
A1 TV and the Spic, Koha e Re and Vreme newspapers, which were blocked by
a court ruling in January.
The owner of A1, along with several of his associates, have been held in
custody since December on suspicion that they committed large-scale
financial crimes.
The opposition claims Gruevski's party is trying to shut down these media
outlets, which are often critical of the government's work.
Crvenkovski said that he is a**ready to hold more meetingsa** to solve the
political deadlock that started in late January when his party and other
smaller parties from the opposition bloc left parliament.
The opposition made this move and reiterated its demand for snap polls,
saying that democratic principles in the country are under serious threat.
However, when the prime minister agreed to hold early elections, and opted
for polls a**as soon as possiblea** the Social Democrats insisted that
more time be allowed to prepare the elections, claiming that without
proper preparations the government may commit fraud.
Some observers expect the elections to take place as soon as May or June.

Macedonia heading for snap elections
Mar 16, 2011, 11:05 GMT
Skopje/Belgrade - Macedonia was heading for snap elections Wednesday after
talks between conservative Prime Minister Nikola Gruevski and Socialist
opposition leader Branko Crvenkovski failed to end a political stalemate,
local media said.
Nine hours of talks between the two leaders concluded early Wednesday
without an agreement to end the opposition's boycott of parliament.
Gruevski said that he would propose the dissolution of the legislature on
March 31, after it passes a set of electoral laws.
According to Macedonian law, elections must be held no later than 60 days
after the parliament is dissolved. The last elections, in June 2008, were
marred by violence and allegations of vote-rigging.

Cub Adventure Day Camp
The Cub Adventure Day Camp Program provides an introduction to Scouting's Outdoor Program. Activities are conducted in an outdoor setting, close to home and during daylight hours. Our day camp programs are designed for boys completing grades 1 tough 4 (Tiger Cubs through Webelos Scouts). We are also providing a Coed Week for girls entering 2nd through 5th grade in the fall. Check out our Coed Week Flyer under forms!
The program provides an opportunity for continuation of the Cub Scout program and advancement throughout the summer. Program activities include; swimming, boating, fishing, crafts, hiking, biking, nature study, games, fieldsports, team building activities, archery, and BB gun shooting.
Scouts participating in Day Camp are better prepared and eager to accept the challenge of residential camping. Cub Adventure Day Camp is not attended as an advancement camp. Instead, through supervised activities, boys develop self-reliance and resourcefulness, learn age appropriate skills, establish new friendships and, of course, have lots of FUN.
Camp activities are age-appropriate. Cub Scouts will be placed in dens with boys of the same age and with Scouts from their home units whenever possible. We strongly encourage dens to participate in the week-long activities together, with their den leader.
The Knox Trail Council offers six weeks of Cub Adventure Day Camp. Cub Scouts may attend any week they choose. Programs operate Monday through Friday from 9:00 AM to 4:00 PM.
Sign up for several weeks or the entire summer and enjoy all the weekly themes. All weeks are conducted at the beautiful Cub Adventure Day Camp at Camp Resolute in the E. Paul Robsham Scout Reservation in Bolton, Massachusetts.

Forget Martha Stewart. Here's how we play house and keep the furry ones who live there happy, too
Looking around my DINK kitchen, I realized we have several gizmos that symbolize the freedom of a kids-free lifestyle. These are the types of items a household with toddlers would not have the time for because none of these items are about convenience or safety. They're about extracting every ounce of joy that exists in a moment
Espresso Maker
Take for instance our beloved La Pavoni espresso maker. Getting the kids off to school and desperately needing a morning cup of coffee? Sure if you have 10 minutes to heat up the machine, slowly pull the lever for the espresso, and then foam your 'crema'. A time saver it is not, but for us it is worth the effort because this time-tested contraption makes a delicious Italian cappuccino.
As coffee is near and dear to our hearts, we seem to have found a way to own a Bialettti Mukka Express. Also Italian made, there are no levers involved like the La Pavoni. But making your morning Joe is a bit more complicated than filling up the Mr. Coffee and pushing a button. Water levels need to be set, individual coffee tamped into its bowels, and the Mukka even requires installing a special frothing tool just right and filling milk up to a critical line. Tasks not meant to be taken on while getting everyone dressed and ready for school. And there's the waiting, yes the waiting for Mukka's all-important 'pop' and 'whooosh'. Eagerly anticipated sounds that indicate Mukka is ready to share his espresso delights for those with the time to linger in the kitchen.
Homemade Ice Cream
While I will admit to owning an electric ice cream maker, one of my friends with kids actually has the time and patience to make homemade ice cream with an old-fashioned hand crank freezer. Time consuming and arm tiring, yes. But do these oldies but goodies make the best tasting peach ice cream ever? A resounding yes. Kids may not have the patience to wait for the ingredients to freeze, but we DINKs have the maturity and patience to savor the anticipation of the creamy delights churning beneath the ice and rock salt (yeah, right...).
Pasta Queen
The lost art of pasta making, crushed in spirit by so many cans of Spaghetti O's and plates of mac 'n cheese in some culinary circles, lives on in our DINK kitchen courtesy of the 'Pasta Queen'. Now granted, after mixing the dough and pulling it through the machine, the pasta needs a place to hang and dry – which would be tricky if we had finger paintings and band camp schedules everywhere. But in our kitchen, we can create some unfettered space for linguine, fettuccine and even lasagna noodles.
And... if the mandolins scare you as much as they did me... then start small and take my recommendation to try the Simple Slicer from Pampered Chef $30. It just does 3 thicknesses of straight cuts. Eventually I'll upgrade to one of those fancy (overpriced) versions, but for now...
I'm all about the pasta! My husband and I love to make homemade ravioli by the ton just for us. It's special time, and a yummy reward for months to come as we fresh them for later eats. But I DO covet the ice cream maker!
It's all about the espresso maker! Spent time as a barista in my college days...so of course I had to get one for my home. It's the perfect start to a peaceful morning.
I have a very heavy and large cast iron skillet, unlocked wine cabinet, electric wine opener and many knives and sharp objects all within easy reach.
Breadmaker - did not even think about that one...we are about to buy a BlendTec blender, super high tech and dangerous I've heard.
Breadmaker, our electric wine opener and aerator (it's not electric), juicer, yogurt maker and food processor.
I also love my sushi maker and my microplanes of various sizes. Not too dangerous but very intricate!

A History of Russia - A Book ReviewHow much do you know about the history of Russia? Most of us know only what we have seen in documentaries or movies. How much that is true can be debatable. There is one book that you need to read if you are seriously considering: A History of Russia by Nicholas V. Riasanovsky and Mark D. Steinberg. Many history books can be a dry read. This does not make history interesting. Riasanovsky and Steinberg do a very good job in keeping this book from being as dry as many are. You have to keep in mind that this book is covering all the history of Russia from ancient times through the early years of the twenty-first century. This is not a brief overview. This is detailed in over 700 pages of text. There are various pictures and maps throughout the book illustrating the reigns of individual Russians as well as the life during those times. Having the maps makes the reading much more understandable for those that are visual. What is described in a section can be summarized in a few maps and makes it all so much clearer. One difficulty a reader might find is the various names they encounter. Not many of us are familiar with Russian names and trying to pronounce them is hard. Also, remembering the various people and their roles in history might have you reading sections multiple times to get the names straight. This book comes with a 40 page bibliography for further study which is wonderful if you are needing this book for academic research. I found it came in quite handy for my History of Russia class. The bibliography is divided into sections such as Pre-Petrine Russia (to 1682) and Soviet Russia, 1717-1991. Even these sections are subdivided into General Studies and specialized studies. This is one of the best organized bibliographies I have ever found. The index is 39 pages and is decent. There is so much information that the index is not exhaustive and will not always direct you where you want to go. Keep that in mind if you use the index of a book often. This is a thick book but is well worth it. It is also not cheap starting at $60. A History of Russia is a history lovers perfect book. You wont find tons of colorful pictures, but you will find sufficient black and white photos to supplement the reading. Want to know more about Russia and are not satisfied with a cursory glimpse into it? Then this is a book for you. Note: This book was part of a history class the author took.

Mikhail Kalashnikov
Credit: Natalia Kolesnikova/Wikimedia Commons
Do we mourn the death of Lt. Gen. Mikhail Kalashnikov, the inventor of the AK-47, who died at 94 this week? Kalashnikov never showed any remorse for the uses to which his invention was put in the decades after he designed the original model during World War II (the "47" designates the version of 1947, which became the standard production model). He designed the gun for the defense of the Soviet Union against the Nazis, and if it wound up killing millions in the hands of countless armies, insurgency groups and terrorists, that was the fault, he said, of politicians. Guns don't kill people, people do, as the National Rifle Association likes to remind us.
What Kalashnikov did was to make a weapon that was optimized for that act not in terms of its precision (which it notably lacks) or refinement, but in its durability and adaptability. He purposefully designed the pieces in a large and clunky manner, so that they would have a certain amount of give, could be easily cleaned or fixed, and were cheap and easy to manufacture. The strategy also gave the gun its no-nonsense aesthetics. Together with equally rugged wartime inventions like the Jeep, it inspired a mechanomorphic design among cartoonists and sci-fi visualizers that is with us to this day. Someday, the movies promise us, guns and agents will meld into robots, and the question of who does the killing will be simple. Gun-like people will kill people.
Looking beyond the AK-47, the bunkers and air defense systems that sprung up across Europe during World War II inspired several generations of architects and designers. They range from the New Brutalists, who would deny the influence, to Claude Parent, who collaborated with Paul Virilio on the seminal book Bunker Archaeology. The Archigram-ers can trace a design lineage back to the war, as can a more recent generation of Dead Tech aficionados ranging from Lebbeus Woods (who drew a series called War and Architecture) to Wes Jones.
There are reasons such implements and forms are so inspiring. First, a lot of resources are invested in their creation. Second, the extreme conditions of war edge out a lot of other considerations, forcing designers to cut to the most basic and elemental shapes. Third, the implementation of these designs reminds us of death, danger, and the end of things, and thus have the same power as horror movies or momento mori works of art. And fourth—and perhaps more importantly—the designs are emblems of power.
Kalashnikov managed to answer to all of those generating principles in the design of his gun. It is forthright and clear in its purpose, menacing in its form, adapted to the human body but clearly alien from it. Since then, we have moved to more streamlined implements of death. Now such objects and structures are becoming almost invisible, hovering above us as remotely controlled drones, erupting from hidden places in the ground, or camouflaged under the clothes of a suicide bomber. Rifles have also become much more accurate and deadly, as the mentally disturbed perpetrators of mass shootings make clear all too often.
Death and war used to be present and obvious in their horrible nature. They also involved skill in the making of the implements and their use. Kalashnikov was one of prime movers of the democratization of death. Sometimes we find ourselves nostalgic for the design clarity of an earlier age. But the act of putting destructive power in the hands of so many—enabling anyone to kill, with or without rhyme or reason—is Kalashnikov's cursed legacy, and it lingers with us even after his death.

Paterno family issues report challenging Freeh's findings
Freeh dismisses the challenge
February 10, 2013 5:45 PMUNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- The Paterno family made its formal pitch to explain the actions of Joe Paterno with regards to the Jerry Sandusky sexual abuse scandal, concluding the Freeh report was fundamentally flawed and that Paterno did not conceal the crimes of Sandusky.
"The Freeh report is a profound failure," said Wick Sollers, the Paterno family's lawyer.
Mr. Sollers, former U.S. attorney general and former Pennsylvania governor Dick Thornburgh, former FBI profiler Jim Clemente and sexual disorders expert Dr. Fred S. Berlin contributed to the report, which featured few new facts; instead it dissected the Freeh Report, offering evidence for why Mr. Freeh's conclusions about Paterno were inaccurate. As Mr. Sollers wrote, they did not want to do a "reinvestigation of an investigation."
The report charged that Mr. Freeh and his team did not interview enough key people -- mainly former athletic director Tim Curley, former assistant coach Mike McQueary and former vice president of finance Gary Schultz -- and that its evidence for criticizing Paterno's actions was not credible enough, relying on three e-mail chains and selective testimony from uninformed sources, namely a janitor who spoke of the power of the football program.
Of the e-mails, the most critical aspect of the Freeh Report concerning Paterno, Mr. Thornburgh argued that the 1998 e-mails, presented by Mr. Freeh as illustrating Paterno's knowledge of an investigation of Sandusky, were vague. Mr. Thornburgh wrote that it was unclear if the e-mails referred to that investigation when Mr. Curley wrote he had touched base with Paterno in an e-mail.
Mr. Sollers and his team made a similar claim regarding Paterno's role in the 2001 Lasch Football Building shower incident witnessed by former assistant football coach Mike McQueary. They argued that the e-mail evidence was particularly unreliable because a university computer system change caused most e-mails from 2004 to be irrecoverable, limiting the availability of e-mail data from 1998 and 2001.
In the report done for the family, Paterno was characterized as a person with a track record of honesty and integrity who was fooled by Sandusky.
"In looking back, with the advantage of hindsight, it is one thing to suggest that perhaps more could have been done, and that there are lessons to be learned," said Mr. Berlin, the sexual disorders expert, in the report. "... It is another thing entirely to impugn a lack of good faith, and malevolent self-serving motives, in the absence of compelling evidence."
Mr. Freeh released a statement to ESPN on Sunday morning, shortly after the Paterno Report came out, saying "the self-serving report the Paterno family has issued today does not change the facts established in the Freeh Report or alter the conclusions reached in the Freeh Report."
He said that he attempted to interview Paterno, through his attorney, before he died, and Paterno chose not to speak. Mr. Sollers denied that Mr. Freeh reached out to Paterno in a statement issued on Sunday afternoon.
Penn State defended its use of the Freeh Report, which the university commissioned for $6.5 million. University spokesperson David La Torre said in a release that the recommendations from it have made the university more accountable.
"It is understandable and appreciated that people will draw their own conclusions and opinions from the facts uncovered in the Freeh Report."

Even as advanced statistics become more prevalent in hockey, it's still rare to see them used in mainstream media, outside of some outliers like James Mirtle with the Globe and Mail. The doldrums of August can lead a hockey reporter off the beaten path in search of a story, however, and Fluto Shinzawa of the Boston Globe turned to advanced statistics for a story on Sunday, interviewing Michael Schuckers, a statistics professor who does hockey analysis.
Shinzawa clearly asked Shuckers what was the oddest or most confusing free agent signing of the off-season according to his statistical analysis, which is a reasonable question to ask when looking for a story. What was odd was the answer. Shuckers skipped right past the usual punching bags from the past few months and went with Rob Scuderi, who returned to the Pittsburgh Penguins this off-season on a four-year deal.
According to Shuckers, his signing is "the one that sticks out to me this year" as the statistics show that Scuderi is "well past his prime" and not worth what the Penguins are paying him. But is that really the case?

Despite an economic upturn, Santa Barbara County is looking at 60-90 million dollar budget deficit as we kick off the new year.
County supervisors say 90 million is a worse case scenario. Some of the options include job cuts, curbing employee pensions, and fewer board of supervisor meetings.
We sat down with newly-elected 5th District Supervisor Steve Lavagnino to get some answers.
Watch KSBY News tonight at 5 and 6 for more on how the county's future could affect you.

T.I., Trey Songz, Fabolous and Jermaine Dupri all attended the Music in Motion Tour party. talking about jermaine dupri singer Janet Jackson was left stunned when her boyfriend Jermaine Dupri vomited in her lap at his birthday party.

Jermaine recently revealed the secret behind his successful relationship with 42-year-old Janet.

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Maggie May + 9 pups!
Facts about Maggie May + 9 pups
- Breed: German Shepherd Dog
- Color: Red/Golden/Orange/Chestnut - With Black
- Age: Young
- Size: Large 61-100 lbs (28-45 kg)
- Sex: Female
Maggie May + 9 pups's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, purebred, and up to date with shots.
Maggie May came in with 9 German Shepherd cross puppies, I have no idea what the cross is, but the coloring is very GSD, with some white chests and toes. Maggie May, is the sweetest, best mannered 1 yr old pup, I have known in a long time, she is soooo willing to please, Maggie May loves to play ball and return it most of the time to you. Poor girl, had a litter of nine (9) puppies at her young age. She wants so much to please you, she does know sit, stay and come, working on the down. She is TOTALLY housebroke. I can't believe someone dumped this sweet girl in her condition. Her pups are only about 1 week old, so Maggie or her pups, won't be available for another 7 weeks. Maggie and her pups will be spayed/neutered prior to placement. Please fill out our online application for approval for her or her 9 puppies. More pics coming as they grow. Deposits on pups now being taken.
Other Pets at Montana German Shepherd Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Maggie May + 9 pups, a Hamilton German Shepherd Dog dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a German Shepherd Dog for sale in Hamilton, or seeking a German Shepherd Dog dog from a breeder in Hamilton.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Hamilton already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Hamilton breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even German Shepherd Dog breeders who help with German Shepherd Dog rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Hamilton paves the way for another one to be saved.

That is cute - I love the hat you made :) I made something kind of simlar a few years ago, but I must have given them all way. I can't find one to take a picture of. I used 3 old shell buttons (they were cut from clam shells back in the day). Small, Medium, Large. The small one had just two holes punched in it. I used one stitch of orange floss through the holes to make the nose. I dotted the eyes with a small dab of black enamel paint on a toothpick. Same for the mouth. I would glue them to a biscuit. A biscuit is an almond shaped flat piece of wood they use to join boards together in woodworking. I overlapped them slightly - with top button over the medium, and the medium slightly over the bottom one. I glued them down with E6000. When it was dry, I tied a couple strands of floss around the neck for the scarf and glued a pin back on the the back side of the biscuit. They were cute and easy - but I love the hat on yours!! |
- Posted by kudzukween (My Page) on Thu, Nov 27, 08 at 19:48
Thanks ya'll! I glued mine straight to the pin backing. And I used embroidery floss as the scarf, and decoration on the top hat. The top hat is cut from fun foam. It'd be better glued to something before being glued to the pin :D Kudzu |
I thought it was very cute the way it is. Jan |

Community Advisory: Voluntary Evacuation of US Citizens in Egypt
ADC encourages those with relatives in Egypt to convey the information below to such relatives, due to the inaccessibility of internet and e-mail services in Egypt.
Washington, DC | www.adc.org | January 30, 2011 - The U.S. Department of State announced today that arrangements are being made to provide transportation out of Egypt for U.S. Citizens and their immediate relatives, beginning Monday, January 31. This is not a mandatory evacuation. Flights will head to safehaven locations in Europe. Once in Europe travelers will be expected to make their own onward travel plans. Please read the following information thoroughly on how best to assist U.S. Citizens and their immediate relatives looking to leave Egypt.
Persons interested in departing Egypt via USG-chartered transportation should contact the U.S. Department of State and Embassy Cairo by sending an email to firstname.lastname@example.com or by calling 1-202-501-4444 with the requested information.
Due to the inaccessibility of the internet and e-mail in Egypt, representatives of U.S. citizens can also submit the information on behalf of the traveler(s). Information required for all travelers is as follows:
- Name
