This is my chance posting here in Cake Central, and I have not had a chance to read all of the replies....but wanted to tell you not to give up. Caking is ten times harder than anyone would ever dream. I've been at it for awhile now, and I think each of us will attest that you learn as you go.
First, I am not sure anyone mentioned this, but be really careful with FB contests. They used to have very specific rules about doing contests. To the point where they could wipe your page out, if they caught you doing one. The way around it was to promote a contest on your page, that was listed to your blog on your website. Not sure if that applies to a person page as well, and I am unsure that their rules are as stringent as they used to be. Just FYI on that.
I understand both sides of this. I totally get you not wanting to hurt the child and putting their safety above anything else. I can only imagine what would of happened if this child got sick. I also understand the mother's side (to a degree) of being upset. However, trashing you is ridiculous. You made a mistake, and you tried to rectify it. I did read where one person posted about putting the specifics out there for your contests, and I agree with that. Unfortunately, you have to cover yourself in this day and age.
Hang in there, and keep your chin up. This will pass, and you will learn from it!
Totally done with contest lol, but seriously I didnt know I could possibly get into trouble. Thanks for the advice it was much needed!!

Drugs: Misuse
Home Department
Bob Ainsworth (Coventry North East, Labour)
To ask the Secretary of State for the Home Department pursuant to the answer of 1 February 2011, Official Report, column 686W, on drugs: misuse, whether her Department plans to undertake research into the effects of the criminalisation of drugs.
James Brokenshire (Parliamentary Under-Secretary (Home Office); Old Bexley and Sidcup, Conservative)
The Home Office has no plans to undertake research into the effects of the criminalisation of drugs.

Sadly both sides are still laboring under the premise that drugs are criminalised. It is basic to understanding the process to recognise that the law regulates persons with respect to their access to drugs. It is not that the problem is criminlisation of drugs as obviously that is a misnomer, but this linguistic trick masks a whole other level of misunderstanding; it is the criminalisation of persons of course we are opposed to, or rather the arbitrary criminalisation as what is offensive is how those regulations are imposed. There are two fundamental inequalities of treatment extant between the users of some drugs and the users of others. This differentiation is not a fair reflection of the primary law.

Sylvia sent this to me shortly after we met here on the DIS. Guess we hit it off pretty well early on. :D Nick is about 6 1/2 now, she sent this to me about 15 months ago, not sure how old he was in this picture. Nicks dog, Cougar, a Malamute, is on the right, and Cougar's daughter, Tyree, who lives with some other folks, is on the left. I often commented to Sylvia what a heartbreaker Nick was going to be when he grew up. She agreed, LOL. :D I did have the opportunity to say hi to Nick a few times over the past months. A real nice boy. God bless you, Nick, your mom will be missed. :( <bgsound src="http://msod.awpweb.com/songs/philcollins-youllbeinmyheart.mid" loop="-1"> |
What a precious child! I pray that God will bless and keep Nick always.
words fail me now.... What a gorgeous boy with gorgeous blue eyes. I hope he is able to find comfort in this difficult time for him and his family. |
Arrrgh, the tears are pouring now . . .
when I think of what that sweet child must be going through . . .
:( :( :( :( |
I am at a loss for words...Nick is just so precious...My heart is just so heavy tonight....I pray for Nick and the entire family...
Thanks Dan!
God bless Nick!
He will forever be on my prayer list. |
He is precious. I'm sorry... |
We lost a wonderful woman in our church and school in August. She had 3 wonderful daughter's...6th grade, 3rd grade, and kindergarten. When I see them I think about what she is going to miss but what she is going to help guide them through. This mothers day I saw them in church and it broke my heart to know that they weren't going to be waking up and doing something special with their mom....
Nick...I hope that you can remember your mom always...be brave little sweety!! I know those girls have been the bravest little girls I've seen in a long time..and they have a lot of faith in God. |
through tears.........
words just aren't coming. God Bless Nick and his family through this very difficult time.
Oh my....what a darling little boy and you see why Sylvia was proud of her "old" screen name..NicksMom. It was a job title she was proud of.
Nick will be on mind for a long time...such a shame this child lost his mom at his age. We know you will be watching closly over him Sylvia... |
precious. our prayers are with him.
Oh, what a precious little boy. Much too young to lose his mom. It just breaks my heart.
Thanks for sharing this, Dan.
Tonight has put so much in perspective for me. |
ok I'm crying now
I did not know her but I can feel what a lose this is. It is a sad day. I'm gonna go hug my wife and kids now.
What sweet little boy! Now he has the most qualified Guardian Angel watching over him. God bless him and keep him.

Long before Chad Sumner was old enough to walk and talk, he was hanging out at his family's gun range in Bullitt County, Ky. He has the photos to prove it.
"There are pictures of me at the Machine Gun Shoot in a crib inside the office. I've never missed a shoot. I didn't have a pacifier. I was sucking on bullets," he joked.
"So that explains what happened to him," his uncle, Steven Sumner, cracked after hearing his nephew's disclosure on a recent afternoon.
Now Chad, 30, and Steven, 54, along with other members of the Sumner family, are bringing their colorful personalities to the small screen as the stars of a new reality TV show.
"Guntucky" (8 p.m. Sundays on CMT) follows the group on its adventures at the Knob Creek Gun Range, which has been in the Sumner family for four generations and is led by owner "Gran-pa" Biff Sumner Jr., who also owns Biff's Gun World.
The range is known for its bi-annual Machine Gun Shoot & Military Show, the event to which Chad Sumner was referring when he said he hadn't missed one since birth.
The Sumners filmed 10 episodes for the reality show in summer. The majority take place at the 350-yard outdoor range where people can shoot an array of legal firearms — from cannons to rare collectibles.
The premiere of "Guntucky," which originally was set for Jan. 26, was put on hold until April 21 in the wake of the December school shooting in Newtown, Conn. Although the show was shot before the tragedy, CMT executives said at the time of the postponement that they were delaying the premiere out of respect to those killed, but that they still stood behind the show "100 percent."
David George, one of the executive producers of "Guntucky" and the executive vice president of programming for Leftfield Pictures (also the producers of the hit series "Pawn Stars"), said that although guns are an especially controversial subject these days, "I think people will see through all of the guns and really see that this is about the family."

I'm pretty sure I've posted about this before but we've been back a few times now and each trip it gets easier to navigate the DAS and FP+. I have found that I rely more heavily on FP+ than the DAS. Our last trip I only had a few times filled out and we used it a couple more times with rides with short waits where the CM's allows us to enter the FP+ line w/o a return time.
What has changed for us is that we don't go on as many rides anymore and very rarely ride back to back anymore, as FL residents, that is okay but still disappointing for my ASD son. We also has to start carrying a bag again. As the kids are now a little older (8 & 10) we were able to carry just basics with us into the park without the need for any type of tote/backpack, etc. but now that there is more waiting we have allowed my son to have his DS and iPod with him, which means more for mommy to carry But overall we have kept an open mind and positive attitude to the changes and are doing the best we can to make the DAS work for us.

I have a question regarding this card. I have a titanium rod in my leg and on the first day its fine but it swells and hurts as the days progress. What is the policy on this?

WDW's policy on mobility or stamina issues is to suggest the guest use a wheelchair or ECV. Unless you have other needs specifically impacting your ability to wait within a queue, you will not qualify for a DAS. You might want to consider an off-site rental. Enjoy your vacation! |

I wrote on here with questions before so I wanted to give a report about our experience with the card. We just finished 5 days in 3 of the parks with our DD who has CP and is in a wheelchair. I was super worried before we went about how things were going to go with the changes to the pass. We decided to take our first day and make it a more leisurely late afternoon day so that there wouldn't be pressure with everyone excited to get moving and needing to stop at, what could be, a lengthy experience at Guest Relations. The CM at guest relations was really nice and explained that FP+ and Stand-by lines should accommodate us. I explained issues with waiting in really long lines. Cognitively, the ability to wait 15-20 minutes without a complete meltdown is about her limit. Based on the information I read here, I really thought about why we would need the card. It was a good thing for me to understand going into it. I knew that she'd have problems but couldn't articulate why until I really thought it through and even talked to her therapists and teachers. As I read here, it's about the needs, not the diagnosis.
Card in hand we set out to use our first FP+ which I'd set up in advance since they'd just opened that up to non-resort guests. In 5 days, including 2 at MK, 2 at DHS, and 1 at Epcot, we used the pass 5 times. We rode every ride she wanted and saw every show. We made this happen through three things - strategic use of the FP+, the DAS, and using a touring plan (this is equally important, IMO). The DAS was used on Toy Story and Soarin (2x each) because of the impossible wait times and not being able to get a FP+. We had multiple interactions with CMs who were all incredibly helpful along the way. The system is absolutely not perfect. Many times the joke in our party was the line from Titanic about them getting a "strongly worded letter" once we get home. We will be doing that, as will one of the care providers who came with us. I addressed one issue on the day of but it was not related to the DAS. I was admonished by a CM at the turnstiles for having my daughter use her finger for admittance. Anyway, not related to DAS. Hopefully it is all growing pains with this new system. Today is a quiet pool and shopping day before we head home. Thanks everyone for the information before our trip! If you happened to be in the parks this week and saw the goofy group with the matching sweet 16 birthday t-shirts in pink or blue (which Princess Aurora loved for color choices alone), that was us! |

Several years ago, my husband did scan his finger for DD when we entered; it worked well that time and the next time we entered. Then DD and I park hopped without my husband. Since her finger scan didn't match what was in the computer and the pass had already been used to enter a park, we kind of got the third degree. Luckily, I had both our ID, so could prove the pass was hers. A helpful CM on this trip noticed DD's finger had slid across the reader. He suggested lining her finger up and then placing it straight down on the pad. That worked much better because apparently it starts recording a picture as soon as a finger touches down. A 'sliding' touch produces a blurry picture that won't match.

We had the nice experience you talked about when entering the park a couple of times. Basically suggesting that I use my finger for her. This one time at DHS, admonished was the correct word. Unfortunately it went beyond helpful suggestion. We later discovered that the problem was my daughter had slid 2 fingers on. Once we figured that out it was smooth sailing. Other times that we had an issue a Guest Relations CM was there to address it and send us on our way into the park. This is a part of Disney's process that doesn't always work for some people with limited motor skills. Your situation, Sue, shows how it can really mess things up. I explained that to them at Guest Relations and they said they hadn't really thought of that. I didn't go out of my way to say anything about this. We had a huge mix-up with our tickets that caused us to spend close to an hour in GR. It was just part of our conversation.
I was so happy with all the many things that Disney did right because all of the changes (DAS, FP+, techie new stuff) had me worried before our trip. They definitely have some bugs to work out with all of those. But overall it was the usual magical Disney experience I have come to expect with a little hiccups here and there and more planning on my part. |

What, if any, is the policy for using the DAS with a ride in soft opening? I ask because we are going in a few weeks and the mine train may be in soft openings while we are there.

So our situation is that the three of us that are going(my mother, my daughter and myself) all have Ehlers-Danlos. We all have issues with conveyor belt rides that require us to go from a moving belt to a non moving surface, stairs. We obviously won't be doing big thrill type of rides, but even things like getting out of the cars for Spaceship Earth and going from conveyor belt to another surface can cause us to dislocate if we're not careful. Can the DAS help us get the ride slowed down, particularly for my elderly mother, so she has more time to embark and disembark a ride? My daughter also has the added complication of POTS so standing long periods of time can cause her to faint. We're already planning on going during a slow time in January to avoid lines and we're proficient with FP+, so I'm not terribly worried about the POTS. I'm more concerned about the darned conveyor belts.

The issue with most soft openings is that you can't guarantee that the attraction will be running at any specific time. It is very hit or miss. So I am not too sure how well a DAS would work since there will be a higher then average possibility of the ride no longer running once the time is up.

When you get to that point of the attraction, just speak to the CM.

I know when the Little Mermaid ride in New Fantasyland opened, it would sometimes be open for only a very short time. They would gather a few people to ride, have them go and then close it again. It could be open for a few minutes or a few hours. Quote:
DAS is for issues having to do with waiting in the traditional line; the only accommodation the DAS gives is that the user gets a Return Time so that their waiting for the attraction is done outside of the line. Issues like boarding, where to be seated, etc. are handled at the attraction by talking to the CM. ALSO, be aware that they will slow the moving walkway, but very seldom stop it entirely. One of the reasons is that when rides are actually stopped, even for a short period, there is concern that guests on the attraction may try to stand up or get out of their ride car. So stopping entirely is avoided as much as possible. If readers have not checked out post one of this thread, it is a DAS FAQs and can explain a lot about how DAS works.

I have a question regarding the stroller as a wheelchair. DD has developmental delays and she is not yet standing solidly or walking. She's 21 months and about to start crawling. I cannot hold her for long periods of time any more...DH could hold her a bit longer, but even then she's getting long and heavy and difficult to carry for long (like waiting for a ride). There's no other reason, though, that would prevent her (or us) from waiting in the regular line. She is fine in crowds, noise doesn't bother her, etc. Right now her only dx is the delays - no specific cause. After reading the first post, am I correct in thinking that the most appropriate accommodation for her would be the stroller as a wheelchair card (rather than the DAS)?
I don't know exactly when we're taking DD next, and obviously I hope that she will be walking and standing by then and this will be a non-issue. She's made a lot of strides in the past 2 months, and it's been very exciting for us. I just want to know what our options would be if we did decide to take a trip with her soon, and she weren't yet standing/walking. Thanks!

Yes, the stroller as a wheelchair will absolutely be your best way to go. It 100% meets your needs from what you've said.
Once she's walking, if she still has trunk strength and/or endurance issues then the stroller as a wheelchair tag may still be an appropriate accommodation to cut down on her walking.

Are the stroller as wheelchair cards available at Guest Relations outside the park, or do you have to go to GR in a park? Also, am I correct in reading the first post and thinking that our entire party will be able to stay together in a mainstreamed line (whether SB or FP+) as long as the line is WC accessible? What happens at attractions where the main lines aren't WC accessible and there is a separate mobility entrance? Would our entire party be allowed to be together? I saw the rules regarding how many people the DAS would be issued for, but since we wouldn't have a DAS since we just need the stroller as wheelchair, I wasn't sure if it was handled differently? (Please note I am in no way trying to get specialized access or anything...it's not about wait time, we're just likely to be there with my parents and possibly my brother's family and we don't like to split up and spend time apart. We obviously would if we needed to, I'm just trying to understand the rules.)

I have scanned through the first page, and tried to search. I'm sure these questions have already been asked but I can't find them.
My mom had a mild heart attack last Friday night. We leave for Disney in 11 days. We have spoken to her doctor in depth regarding this trip. He has cleared her to go with a few restrictions. His main concerns are the heat and the rides. The rides we are ok with, as my mom doesn't ride anything bigger than PoC. Will the DAS card help her with the heat? I thought the old GAC allowed for waiting areas in air conditioning, but from what I'm understanding this is different, right? Basically she would get a return time and then she could go to other indoor rides or shops to pass the time. Am I understanding this correctly? I don't want to waste time at Guest Services getting the card if it isn't necessary. The other issue is our party size. 6 including the guest with the DAS card,right? We have 7, plus 2 under age 2, so 9 total. We do not plan on staying together all of the time, but there are just a few things that we wanted to do as group, like Dumbo. Any advice is appreciated. I know we are very lucky to have not had to deal with this on our past trips. I just want to make this one a good one for Mom

Starring Joel Kinnaman, Abbie Cornish, Gary Oldman, Michael Keaton, Samuel L. Jackson, Jackie Earle Haley, Michael K. Williams, Jay Baruchel, Jennifer Ehle, and Marianne Jean-Baptiste..
Directed by Jose Padilha
I feel like Robocop is going to blow people away much like what the new Judge Dredd did. This new poster sports Robocop if full view with his black armor, I like it! The cast for Robocop includes some good actors like Gary Oldman, Michael Keaton and Samuel L. Jackson.
Synopsis: In the film, the year is 2028 and multinational conglomerate OmniCorp is at the center of robot technology. Their drones are winning American wars around the globe and now they want to bring this technology to the home front. Alex Murphy (Kinnaman) is a loving husband, father and good cop doing his best to stem the tide of crime and corruption in Detroit. After he is critically injured in the line of duty, OmniCorp utilizes their remarkable science of robotics to save Alex's life. He returns to the streets of his beloved city with amazing new abilities, but with issues a regular man has never had to face before.

The earliest paintings are two from Hull's "War of the End of the World" series, done in 1989 and 1990. "Machines of Blood," hung on the canted back wall, is a frontal view of a marching group of men carrying a large crucifix above their heads. At first they're reminiscent of the Penitentes of northern New Mexico and southern Colorado, but on closer inspection the men look more like battle-weary soldiers than religious pilgrims. This juxtaposition of sacred imagery with allusions to warfare is expressed, either explicitly or implicitly, in most of Hull's paintings. "Patrol," the second painting from "End of the World," is one of the great works displayed here--but it's marooned among much newer paintings in the center room. In this piece, a group of riders in Civil War-era uniforms are seen clustered around the burnt-out hulk of a car. Hull uses a dusty palette to carry out the desert scenery in the background, as well as the figures and horses.
Hull's style is a hybrid, with brushy, painterly flourishes setting off straightforward realism. Although his pieces are freely painted, they crisply and convincingly convey recognizable subjects with an astonishing level of detail. "Flannery O'Connor pointed out that if you don't care about dust, you shouldn't be an artist," Hull said during a February gallery chat. "People are made from dust, and these paintings are made from dust with an acrylic binder."
His skill at detailing is shown off in the back room, in a group of paintings from his 1994 "Alamo" series. These are major pieces with complicated compositions, populated by scores of figures and hundreds of pictorial elements. According to Hull, they refer not to the Mexican-American war, as it would appear, but rather to his own experiences in the service. "As a kid, I was inspired by John Wayne, who starred in the movie The Alamo," he says. "It's why I wound up in the Marine Corps. In the movie, Wayne gets blown up and becomes a hero. From what I learned in the service, I know it's not the way war is." To create this series, Hull traveled to Texas to make studies of the Alamo; the figures are based on sketches of Marine Corps buddies and other images from life.
These paintings depict the bloody aftermath of the pitched battle. In "Fall of the Alamo," Hull shows the advancing Mexican soldiers at the moment the Texas fort was taken. Their vanquished foes lie at their feet, littering the forecourt of the bombed-out building. Hull's handling of the lights and darks in the dusk-set scene is fabulous: In the manner of the old masters, he leads the viewer's eyes from the bottom left to the top right--and back around again. He does this through the movement of the soldiers and the bright white clouds at the horizon that frame the fort. Equally dramatic is "Pyre," in which Hull puts stacks of flaming corpses in the foreground next to a division of Mexican soldiers who are carrying out their grim, fiery task off to the bottom left. Unlike "Fall of the Alamo," "Pyre" is brightly lit under a cloudless morning sky.
In a very different mood from these monumental paintings are a group from Hull's "Backstretch" series, which captures the world of horseracing. An avid fan of the sport--"I've lost a ton of money at the track," Hull says--he spent two weeks in 1995 hanging out at Hollywood Park in Los Angeles. "I did a million sketches. I was especially interested in the life of the jockeys, most of whom come from the same small town in Mexico. The backstretch, and not the racetrack itself, was like its own small town," he remembers. Compared to Hull's other paintings shown here, the composition of the "Backstretch" series is simple. In "3/4 Chute," a horse and rider amble across the red dirt track; in the background are grandstands accented by palm trees. "Long Shadows" places the horse and rider off to the bottom left, while the rest of the painting is filled with railings and grandstands.
The majority of the Narrative Paintings show consists of works from Hull's recent "Colorado Crime" series, some of which were completed just days before the exhibit opened in January. Although they fill the front room and most of the center, the "Crime" paintings have not been hung in any particular order. Still, the sixteen small landscape studies shown together in the front gallery offer a glimpse of Hull's methods. They record views he encountered on a car trip through southern Colorado and northern New Mexico, scenes that were later used as the settings for many of his larger paintings depicting crimes and unsavory behavior.
Hull's landscapes may have a photographic accuracy, but he doesn't use photos as studies for his paintings. "I'm just too nineteenth-century about it," he said during his gallery talk. "When I find a scene that's interesting to me, I stop and paint it. If everything goes right, it only takes about an hour to do a small study--but rarely does it go right.
"When I started the 'Colorado Crime' paintings, I hung these studies on one wall of my studio," he adds. "On the opposite wall I hung sketches I made of people--which I do all the time. The paintings are combinations of the studies and the sketches, which are combined in a variety of ways. It may not be too efficient, but it is effective."

June 8, 2009 - Disapproval of the Modifications to Text of Proposed Regulations
On June 8, 2009, the Office of Administrative Law (OAL) issued a Decision of Disapproval of Regulatory Action regarding the proposed regulations submitted by Department of Water Resources (Department). The proposed regulations would have adopted Chapter 4.5 of Division 2 of Title 23 (commencing with section 570) regarding Financial Assistance for Flood Management Projects and Small Flood Management Projects. OAL disapproved the proposed regulations for failure to comply with standards and procedures of the California Administrative Procedure Act (APA), specifically the failure to make certain substantive changes to the regulations available to the public for comments as required by Government Code section 11346.8.
The Department has 120 days from the date of the disapproval decision in which to resubmit the proposed regulations after making them available for public comment in accordance with the Administrative Procedure Act (Government Code section 11349.4).
October 27, 2008 - Modified AB 1147 Regulations, End of 15-Day Comment Period
The 15-day public comment period has ended for the modified AB 1147 regulations. The Department granted an extension for one commenter. The Department is considering all relevant material received during this comment period.
October 2008 - Notice for 15-Day Comment Period, AB 1147 Regulations
The Department of Water Resources has made substantial, sufficiently related changes to its initial proposed AB 1147 regulations (see June 2008 Announcements). In compliance with the Administrative Procedure Act (Government Code section 11340 et seq.), the changes are made available for public comment for at least 15 days, beginning on October 6, 2008. All written comments must be received by the Department before October 22, 2008. The public may comment on the proposed modifications in writing, including by facsimile (fax) or email.

The Advance Notice of Intent to File Emergency Regulations was mailed on July 17, 2008 to interested parties on the Department's Subventions mailing list. Comments on the proposed emergency regulations must be submitted within five calendar days of when the Office of Administrative Law (OAL) posts the proposed emergency regulations on the OAL website, http://www.oal.ca.gov. All comments on the emergency regulations must be sent simultaneously to both OAL and the Department. The Department will file the Emergency Rulemaking package with OAL on or after July 24, 2008.
Along with the filing of the emergency regulations, the Department is simultaneously going through the regular (nonemergency) rulemaking process for AB 1147 regulations. Please note that the Department's filing of emergency regulations does not preclude the public's ability to comment on the proposed regular regulations. Comments on the proposed regular regulations will continue to be received in accordance with the regular rulemaking process.
July 2008

June 2008 - Proposed Regulations for the Flood Control Subventions Program
The Subventions staff has developed proposed AB1147 regulations that encourage local sponsors to meet the desired objectives. The goal is to provide rules that are understandable, equitable and obtainable for the sponsors. In compliance with the rulemaking procedures in the Administrative Procedure Act (Government Code § 11340 et seq.), a 45 day opportunity to submit written, faxed, or email comments on all or any part of a proposed rulemaking action starts on June 13, 2008. The notice of proposed rulemaking (PDF: 30KB) is published in the California Regulatory Notice Register, which may be accessed online at http://www.oal.ca.gov/notice.htm. The notice of proposed rulemaking is also mailed to those who have asked to be on the agency's notice mailing list, and here. The notice tells you how to obtain access to the proposed regulation text (PDF: 89KB) and the initial statement of reasons (PDF: 136KB) and who to call if you have questions. The notice also schedules two public hearings at which you may comment on the proposal orally and/or in writing.
MAKING AN EFFECTIVE COMMENT: Effective comments are based on an understanding of the statutes and factual material the agency relies on in proposing the regulation, on an understanding of what the proposed regulation is intended to do, and on an understanding of the standards the regulation must satisfy. The Authority and Reference citations that follow the text of each regulation section identify the statutes on which the section is based. The initial statement of reasons describes the purpose and rationale of each regulation and identifies the factual material upon which the agency relies in proposing it. The response to comments in the final statement of reasons must demonstrate that each relevant, timely comment has been considered.
May 2008
Our draft AB 1147 Regulations are currently being routed to the Secretary of Resources and then onto the Office of Administrative Law (OAL). These regulations affect projects authorized on or after January 1, 2002. When OAL publishes the draft regulations, we will add a link to the draft language, Initial Statement of Reasons, and Frequently Asked Questions. To learn more, you may read our informational brochure. If you would like to be on our mailing list to receive a hardcopy of the draft regulations, please email Jeffrey Parsons at email@example.com
November 2006 - Propositions on the General Election Ballot affecting Subventions
June 2006 - Budget Act of 2006
- The Budget Act of 2006 includes 6 staff and $100,000,000
for local agency assistance, with the following provision:
The Department of Water Resources shall give priority to processing $10,000,000 in claims from the Napa
County Flood Control and Water Conservation District to avoid delays that could lead to the loss of federal
funds or create otherwise avoidable flood risks along the Napa River. This priority shall apply during the
2006-07 fiscal year in recognition of the extensive flood damage that occurred in January 2006.
September 2005 - Requirements for submitting local agency claims have been modified:
- Guidelines for State Reimbursement on Flood Control Projects (February 1974) - Revision to Section VI. Claims for Financial Assistance, B. Claims for Reimbursement, first paragraph: "The local agency shall submit ONE copy of each claim."
- The requirement to submit five (5) copies of each claim is no longer necessary.
The Flood Control Subventions Program Section along with the Central Valley Flood Protection Board (formerly Reclamation Board) provide financial assistance to local agencies cooperating in the construction of federally authorized flood control projects. The Central Valley Flood Protection Board administers the State financial assistance for major U.S. Army Corps of Engineers' projects in the Central Valley while the Flood Control Subventions Program Section is responsible for disbursing funds for all other State authorized projects.
The national flood control program was enacted in 1936, which required nonfederal interests to pay the costs of rights of way and relocations for channel improvements and levee projects. State law enacted in 1945 provides for reimbursements to local flood control agencies for all rights of way and relocation costs of channel improvement and levee projects. In 1973, state statute was changed to one of State-local cost sharing for flood damage prevention features of channel improvement and levee projects. State participation in the nonfederal capital costs of recreation and fish and wildlife enhancement features was also added to the program in 1973. In 1988, the state statute was modified to reflect the 1986 changes in federal policy. In 2000, the state statute was amended and now requires flood management projects to meet prescribed requirements prior to state authorization and creates a variable state cost-share percentage based on multi-purpose objectives for the projects, ranging from a minimum of 50% to a maximum of 70%.
(Text of Legislation, History of Legislation, Legislation Status)
Guidelines (PDF: 84KB) were established in 1974 that outline the procedures for submitting and reviewing claims.

prior post with shout outs, eaten by pluck
Summary: you are all beautiful, particularly those with 2X chromosomes.
Running and cycling every other day, will get wiser or dumber soon
calbear - Enjoyed the RR! Congrats again. I'll hopefully run that some day.
reddog - Congrats on finishing the thesis. Hopefully you can get the numbness figured out.
OMR - I've never been on a negative incline tm...how is it? I hate dreadmills..
NickS- Nice run in the heat. Too bad my shoes aren't wearing out as quickly. lol
Ghetto - Sucks to hear there's still pain, but good to hear it's improving. I mtb on trails. Mainly XC, but also do some all mountain/dh stuff. Heading up into the mountains on Fri to do some AM stuff. About 1.5k of climbing, but like 7.5k of drop on single track trails down the mtn with mix of conditions...sand, flowing, rock gardens... Some of it pretty dang steep. 5k of drop in the last 8 miles. lol Will be combining two rides for around 24 miles. Waiting for Mammoth to open for some dh with lifts to the top.
Digby - 2 pumps before the run eh?
5@8:21 am, 12 mtb miles at lunch, 1 hr of lifting/core after work
Jim -- do you ever get the feeling that the vultures are lining up to watch you run, and they're just sitting there waiting. That's how I feel.
Kia Ora everyone
Just flying past to say hi "HI" and wish our very own Original Dark Wave a happy birthday.
12 miles last night with a couple of mile close to MP by mistake and 9 tonight with 3 x 1 mile @ 5k pace (not by mistake)
More later team
OMR - there is only one Pj in the photo. Faster Pj was darn close to breaking 3 hours (and a former winner for the ladies). My fellow sufferer in the photo was behind me for chip time, actually. I think we crossed about together.
a whole 3 last night @11. I could get used to that. lol
Sub 4:30 50k, still lazy
Happy Birthday DarkWave!
"But the from way I see it, you can either run from it, or... learn from it." - Rafiki
dls: Does it help if my 1X chromosome is "above average"?
Moob: Well, it's not like the real deal, but it does work the downhill muscles. I think it's easy to lean back a little bit because everything else is still level. But, I've noticed an improvement in my form when running down actual hills, so I'm keeping it in my routine.
PJ: Yeah, I didn't think that was the "other" PJ in that photo.
Darkwave: Happy Birthday! So you're...uh...14 now?
Hey to everyone...
7 @ 8:04 this morning.
Doc - don't know about the wiser or dumber part but it sounds like the running and cycling are going well
Moob - looks like the shoes are getting plenty of wear as well! I like the downhill part of that ride
FB - I don't know about Jim but I have that feeling a lot, sometimes it's literal
Stonz - nice on purpose run!
Omar - I'll claim them, this time... nice to be above average!
Hey all
7.2 @ 8:30 this morning, beautiful morning to run.
FB - I have a pic around here somewhere, ah here is is. Taken on a run in Mexico earlier this year:
So the answer to your question is yes.
Darkwave - Happy Birthday. Can you go into bars now?
My pacing experiment was a success (and should have been forehead-slappingly obvious). Running my Tuesday workout at somewhat slower paces led to a much faster recovery. I did not actually do an MP run today, but felt that I could have. I ran fast-easy, with a speedup at the end. With hindsight, I have been training to a fitness level that I don't really have at present, and messing up my week in a sort of death spiral. Soo... the lesson is to use my current 5K times in the pace tables and not my marathon PR. Lesson learned. What a dumbass.
Upcoming: Staying local, Kaiser half, Oakland full, San Francisco full.
Quick drive by to say thanks for the birthday wishes (39). Been way busy this week between work and house selling activity (my old condo goes up for sale this weekend).
So far, my week's looked like this:
M - completely off (sick)
T - 9 v. easy in the morning, and then another inadvertent v. easy 5 in the evening (my coach couldn't make my team's evening workout, so I showed up to see how I could help. I ended up just joggin the warm-up/cool-down and cheering)

Heh - thanks guys (next year is the big one).
Per the baby face discussion, I give you a picture of me from 30 years ago. Note the "Zips" sneakers.
Happy bday, DW!
Omar - I think we can safely say that 3:19 is conservative
itstonz - just doing whatever running comes into one's head sounds like my cycle this time. Except for the 60 mpw thing
fonz - good luck running down that mountain
nick - that picture made me laugh...no idea what the reference was. Between a rock and a hard place
calbear - yowzer. congrats!
pj - so, you're an innie...
Hi you all
Been a tough couple weeks of horribly busy and not much running. Terrible time for a project to go late and need me to do constant overtime. Was doing ok with the running, albeit on 4-5 hours sleep. But then I missed three straight days. Got a run in Wednesday at least, and realized I could still do it after a couple miles. But let's just say it was an unintended two-week taper. So, I'm pretty curious how it goes on Sunday. I don't want to tell myself it doesn't matter because I don't want to build in excuses to start using at mile 20. Travelling now, but hoping to run tomorrow morning. So no hotel beer + TV watching for me. Not this time.
M - 3:20:04 (9/13) | HM - 1:30:49 (6/13) | 10k - 41:32 (3/12)
Happy birthday Darkwave!
Happy birthday DW!
Hiya all!
7@7:27 before work...too busy at work for anything else.
For all you NB 890V3 fans.... limited edition Tie Dye
NickS - My eyes! Was that race in Pennsylvania the Lehigh Valley/Via by any chance? I'm looking at that as a backup for after I melt during that August attempt. Nice-looking downhill.
Happy b-day to DW.
Hey to everyone.
Hills/easy double for 10.5 miles on Tuesday, plus 10.25 easy yesterday @ 8:15ish. Sore today? WTF?
I'm surprised more people aren't looking at the Presque Isle one on the 15th. Makes those lists of high percentage of qualifiers, flat course, cooling lake waters. Maybe it's the whole located in Erie factor...
Those New Balances look my Noosas. Which are about to be my old shoes.
No running last night. O's game instead, but they lost.
Wave - love that pic!
Runbo - it's going to be all good! Pic was in ref to one of Fonz's posts
Moob - durn work gets in the way all the time
McB - that's the one. I have about talked myself out of it though. For the money I would have to spend to get there I could just sign up as a charity runner if my current time doesn't get me in. I still have NYC to run in Nov
PJ - bummer on the O's for ya
I'm seriously thinking about getting those NB
6.2 tm miles this morning as it was storming pretty good when I got up. Traveling for the 10k this evening, Gum Tree 10k in Tupelo if you guys want to live track.... just kidding, no tracking . Plan is to go out by feel and just see what happens. Would love to see a 40:xx but 65 degrees and 80% humidity have put somewhat of a damper on that plan (see what I did there...)
Happy Birthday DW!!! One more year as just a kid.
Jim: Yikes...and they're pretending like they don't even see you...clever...
runbo: Well, with my luck, it'll either be hotter than last year, or there will be a 50mph wind coming in off the lake. Good luck Sunday! No hotel beer/tv??? Ouch...
Nick: I almost like that shoe. I think the ugliest part about it is the "N." (Note: I did say 'almost.')
EDIT: Wait, did I just read that Nick ran on the TM this morning?! I don't think I've ever read that before! Good luck with the 10K!
Dwave: Aww...that photo is a classic! The only thing that could possibly make it better is if you were wearing those shoes Nick just posted.
Gpops: No luck on switching to the half? Last time I looked, it hadn't filled up completely, so you'd think they'd let you swap it out. And how about those Wild? (Ugh...)
Hey to everyone, and good luck to everyone racing this weekend!
11.3 total for me this morning with 4 x 12min LT effort, 2min rest. Windy, so LT paces were all over the map, but they averaged out to about 6:31.
darkwave - That's pretty cute. I had to look up Zips.
Nick - Shoes that would not look any different after a color run. I'm chuckling about live tracking a 10K. They'll probably do it one of these days.
PJ - O dear.
6 miles or so today. Decent.
Runbo - too much taper better than too little. Kick ass on Sunday.
Moob - super 7s.
NS - those are so ugly they went out the other end and are now cool. Want. Have a great 10K.
McBen - hills -> sore, right?
PJ - never heard of that one.
DLS, GPops, FB - thanks for the birthday wishes. Getting tons of wishes everywhere, but the sig other forgot (I haven't reminded him yet). Which is totally fine - we don't really celebrate, and I don't care. I'm just worried that he's going to feel horrible when he finally remembers, and I'm trying to figure out how to cushion that and reassure him that I really honestly don't care.
OMR - said it before, but wind sucks.
Jim - Decent is always good.
I've been feeling a bit crappy all week, but showed up for track this morning. Did 3200m in 12:33 (6:19/6:14) and then 1600 in 5:53. Then I was DONE. Part of it might be that it was kinda sticky (58 degrees but 100% humidity), but I think I'm also still fighting off something (RHR's been elevated some this week).
10k in tupelo might as well be running in a swamp! In the words of Sponge Bob, "Good luck with that!" Seriously, have a great race Nick.
Dwave, the best way to let the sig other know you don't care is to completely display ignorance till said other raises the issue.
In a strange reversal of fortune will get up early, run, then drive to parent's assisted living for a conference about their behavior
Have a great Mother's Day for all the moms on this thread and elsewhere!
I have been reading some of this thread for the first time (Lurker, lol!), and I have to say, I have enjoyed the banter and support between the thread regulars, and the advice and discussions about distances and workouts gives me an idea of how much work I need to do to get to a 3:20 (My goal and "safe" BQ time for my age-group). Question: Is this thread primarily just for those who have or can do a 3:20, or are 3:20-hopefuls welcome?
Thanks :-)
5K 21:21, 10K 45:59, HM 1:42:59, FM 4:45:56 (choked). I actually have 3 HMs under 1:45 now :-)
Any 3:20-hopeful is welcome, except representatives of the University of Spoiled Children.
Rebuilding r2th v3.0
Good thing I went to the University of Southern California. I think that other one you mentioned is probably in South Carolina
Pluto - welcome! Like others are said we welcome with open arms. You have to answer a few questions first, shoes - brand and model to start things off
Wave -so ugly they are pretty, same thing my Mom sad about me...
Sorry for the less than stellar workout, hope you feel better
Jim - that tracking might be kind of cool, small window to catch your runner in though!
Gpops - man that thing is just lingering!
Doc - that is def role reversal, hope everything is OK
Stig - you close enough to drive down to the Players?
10k was somewhat of a disappointment. Ran 41:29 which was a 2 sec PR but about 60 sec off the time I wanted. Weather wasn't that bad, 65ish but overcast and a light mist. First mile was a restrained 6:23 but them mile two was 6:44, but at what felt like low-6 effort. Knew from that point that the legs just didn't have it but kept pushing hoping it would get better, it didn't. Did end up with 2nd in AG after they filtered out 3 guys in the OA Masters awards. This race draws a lot of fast guys, I think the top 7 or so all broke 31.
Dwave: +1 to dls' comment on the birthday thing.
dls: Hope the conference about the parents goes well.
Puto: Welcome. I'm still a 3:20 hopeful, so...oh, wait...maybe I'm not welcome either?!
Nick: Way to be on top of things with the shoe inquiry. Not a bad 10K, even if it wasn't what you had hoped. FYI, my mom stopped at "So ugly..."
9.5ish @ 8:08 for me today, to cap off my week at 72.
Nick, grats and sorry about the missed goal but still nice to PR.
OMR, ahh looks like an easy week.
Since there Seemed to be no ill side affects from yesterday's attempt on the TM I put forth another effort. Did a 10min mile, tibial still hurt but got through it. Then did 16 miles on the bike. I am not running Fargo. I am going to see a DR about Tibia next week.
Promdizzle for 2 of my young ladys tonight. Sigh. Enjoy the night guys and DW.
Nick, thanks! As for your questions, Saucony Ride 5's. I am switching from the Guide 4's that I've been wearing for the last 1,500 miles (2.5 years). PS- It's Puto, not some useless Disney Dog or formerly-a-planet.
OMR, Thanks. And good luck!!! I'm hoping for a 3:20 one day so I can BQ in the next coupla years. My one and only marathon was a 4:51, even though I trained and was capable of a 4:20. Race day's heat and cramps screwed me up.
My last two HM's were 1:44 and 1:43. McMilan seems to think I can marathon in 3:39 with those HM times. I'm dubious, lol.
I've signed up to repeat that same full marathon race in October. I have also entered the lottery for 2013 NY. My training partner and I are planning on running Dublin in Nov. 2014 also. Def LA in Mar. 2014, maybe Chicago Oct. 2014 too. We want to hit the majors enroute to a BQ.
Nick - congrats on a PR! For some reason I can't run 5Ks to HMs distances fast enough. Very weird. Will try to improve on shorter distances in the summer (not the best time though
OMR - nice week!
0 miles for me this week.
Stig broke 3:20? wtf. Who would knew?
NS - a PR is a PR. And Tupelo adds a minute to your time.
I always thought Sub-3:20 is a state of mind. Honestly, I'm not quite sure where I belong, but this feels like home, so you're stuck with me.
Hey to all others - about to run out for the night. Did a bit over 10 miles easy this morning - 8:20 pace.
Yep. See post #1.
Puto ~ Welcome. Please tell us a bit about yourself and running history.
Nick ~ Like DW said, a PR is a PR. But I know you can run much faster; in addition to humidity, I think the legs are still beat up from B. Nice pic of your girls. Nice play on words there too.
DW ~ Belated HB. Cute pic.
Diggby ~ WTF did you go? Lunch w/ Rachel and Tonz? I did 11 hours (TUS to DCA) yesterday; that and the during ORD layover meant USRD.
Ghetto ~ Sorry.
Jim/FB ~ I think I've mentioned before, but I did a long run on the C&O Towpath (where there's lots of wildlife) a few years ago and really bonked. The turkey vultures must have sensed me struggling b/c they started stalking me. It was pretty creepy.
McBen ~ Hope DD is healing.
Hey to everyone else.
Going from desert dry to 90% humidity in one day is painful.

Unspeakable Horrors Invade Your Pocket
The Arkham Horror Toolkit is now available on the iTunes App Store |
Arkham Horror Toolkit | Published 14 January 2011 |
Pete stumbled back from the bank of the river, falling into a pile of soft leaves, and Duke yipped ferociously at the menacing form emerging from the river. Clutching at the ground in a panic, Pete searched desperately in the darkness for something to throw or swing... anything with which to defend himself.
Arkham's unlikely heroes have a new weapon in the ongoing fight to keep their streets safe. Fantasy Flight Games is proud to announce that the Arkham Horror Toolkit, a convenient digital accessory for the popular Arkham Horror board game, is now available on the iTunes App Store!
A Range of Functions
The Arkham Horror Toolkit is a full suite of tools designed to augment and enhance your Arkham Horror experience. Whether you use the Investigator tool, Dice Roller, Location Deck, Map Display, or all of the above, the Arkham Horror Toolkit will take care of the bookkeeping for you. This wide range of time-saving functions will let you concentrate on what's most important: ridding Arkham of the dark forces that seek to overtake it.
With the Investigators tool, all the information pertinent to your character is at your fingertips. Choose from any of the base game characters (or those from any expansions you've added), or let the Arkham Horror Toolkit select one randomly for you. Then, you can monitor and adjust important stats like Sanity, Health, Money, Clue Tokens, or any of your Skills. You can also quickly access your character's starting location, possessions, and backstory!
The Dice Roller lets you roll up to fifteen dice at a time, and will clearly display your successes at the top of the screen. It can even be adjusted for when you're Blessed or Cursed, and you can spend clue tokens (the App remembers how many you've earned) to roll additional dice!
The Location Deck tool is perhaps the most time-saving feature of the Arkham Horror Toolkit, as it will conveniently randomize and reveal Location and Gate cards for all of Arkham's many locales (or for those of any expansions you've downloaded). Simply choose your location from the alphabetized list (or change the list to limit it to Other World locations of those of specific expansions), then keep your fingers crossed as the Arkham Horror Toolkit chooses a random result. Including its many expansions, Arkham Horror features hundreds of unique location cards... but with the Arkham Horror Toolkit, you'll spend less time shuffling, and more time playing!
Finally, the Map function brings the streets of Arkham right to your screen. Use the map as a convenient reference (and add other cities by downloading expansion content), or zoom in to a location and double tap to draw a random Location card!
With the Arkham Horror Toolkit, your struggle against ancient and unspeakable evil is more convenient than ever before. Visit our Arkham Horror Toolkit website for more details, then download your copy at the iTunes App Store today!

The ap is very good so far.
One erratta to address: Sister Mary's card back does not list her blessing under fixed possessions.
In general, this app is great and it can speed up gameplay a lot (especially as you don't have to setup all the cards at the beginning).
The only thing, which is missing IMHO though, is the ability to keep track of multiple investigators at once (or maybe I did not find this feature?). The way it works right now, you can keep track of only one investigator making this function useless for my gaming group (otherwise every member would have to purchase this app for their own including an iphone, which makes it rather expensive...).
All other functions work perfectly fine and are a nice touch to the game. (someone in my group argued that the 1926 feeling gets a bit lost by using an electric device for the book keeping though. He prefers good old card shuffling. ;-))
In general, highly recommended
is there a plan to have it in French ?
Thank you
Great idea! However, I don't own an iPhone, so... well, congrats to all those who do!
This is a bonus for iphone users and seems to be selling well. A good idea, although not for me.
I'm look forward to the next plastic and/or cardboard addition to the game, which will probably last a few decades longer.
Hopefully someone from FFG might answer this. But why didn't you choose to develop a web app? Considering the long list of places Christian mentiones Apple centric app will go well in.
By building a web app you can optionaly avoid both app stores and earn more. Or possibly create a wrapper applications and submit them to the app stores for visibility. And all other streams are automatically opened (TV, laptops, all better smartphones). And you can easily tie it in for the extra geeks, so we can store our stats and so on. Add a league play as a payed option...
Seems to me that the actual market for this app is hard to gauge. Hard to know how many AH owners there are that also own an iOS device versus AH owners also owning an android device.
I know that I am not entitled to any apps for my droid, all I am saying is that I will buy quality apps that are made available for purchase. Hopefully the AH toolkit will be released for the android so that I can buy it at some point in the future:)
Seems like FFg has sufficiently answered the concerns. I would say one thing, though, regarding cost of authoring that FFG hasn't addressed: there are many rabid AH fans out there who I'm sure are the types who would be more than willing to spend some time developing an Android app. Of course, it would probably mean making some portion of it open source, but rather than whine and complain, if there are any of you out there who would be willing to do so, why not volunteer?
Unfortunately, I don't have those skills. And I haven't looked to see if this app works on my old iPhone, but I also have an Android phone. I would love to have the option. But how about being constructive?
WOW. People were actually up in arms over this?
I don't have a platform to run this, but I thought it as a neat little app. It's not like you can't play the game without it.
IF I get a platform, I'll buy it. if not not. Thanks for making it though. Hope it sells well!
Thank you for your response. It does help explain why you are taking your current path with app development. And being honest with your customers is never a bad thing. Just the fact that your company is working to develop content for electronic devices shows that you have a vision to what the future of gaming might look like. I do appreciate that you are seeing success with the iPhone app, and thanks to that you are considering creating one for the Android. If one is released, I will purchase it.
Corky, seriously, get over it. FFG puts up with a lot of crap on their own boards that other companies don't even bother providing. CP gets the final say on everything.
So since only hostile comments were deleted (even those without profanity or such thing) is this implying that dissention is not allowed? Only those with positive things to say are allowed to speak?

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 Daisy May!
Facts about Daisy May
- Breed: Chihuahua Mix
- Color: Black - With White
- Age: Senior
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Daisy May's Info...
I am already spayed, housetrained, up to date with shots, and not good with kids.
Daisy was rescued from a shelter south of FTW. Poor gal had a horrible yeast infection; no hair from the neck down, but that was 6 weeks ago. Today, she has a gorgeous, thick 'fur coat'. Daisy, weighs 5-5 1/2 lbs, a small gal, and we're told, is approximately 8-10 years old. Appears she was possibly used for breeding but has been spayed, micro chipped, up to date on her vaccines, and waiting for you to take her home! She's a sweet little gal but we will not adopt Daisy May into a family with children under 18 years of age. She has many years of love left to give to the right family, but we want them to be quiet years since she is 'retired' from the life she had before we 'found' her. Please contact Lucy's if you are interested in providing Daisy with a forever home to call her own.
Other Pets at Lucy's Lost Loved Ones
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Daisy May, a Fort Worth Chihuahua dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Chihuahua for sale in Fort Worth, or seeking a Chihuahua dog from a breeder in Fort Worth.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Fort Worth 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 Fort Worth 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 Chihuahua breeders who help with Chihuahua rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Fort Worth paves the way for another one to be saved.

Malcolm in the Middle
In much the same way that the Conners of 'Roseanne' exploded the myth of the unified, dad-centered sitcom family, the Wilkersons are a unit in which the siblings really do try to kill each other and the parents maintain control through guerilla strategy rather than homespun aphorisms -- just like real families. Radical notion, that.

EW: How much did you want to win that final immunity challenge, to get not only an individual immunity win, but the most important individual immunity win.
Yeah, and it really wasn't because I felt like I needed the win so much because I did have an alliance with everybody that wanted to take me to the end — mostly because they all figured they could beat me, but still. But I figured like I was pretty safe and they were all going to take me to the end. But I wanted to win it for my story to say that when I finally got in the game and finally got my head in there I ultimately even won the deciding immunity change. I just wanted to be able to have that immunity necklace. I felt it internally that people on the internet were saying "She doesn't deserve to be there. She's too wishy-washy. Get your big girl panties on or get off the island." And I felt that way about myself, so I understood it. So I wanted to say, okay, I actually do deserve to be here, I can play this game and I can actually even win a challenge — even the most important one.
EW: I thought you did a good job at some of the later Tribal Councils of laying the groundwork for Tandang pride and reminding everyone that you tried to stay loyal, yet at the end you and Skupin only got one Tandang vote combined. Why is that?
I think there's a two-edged sword to loyalty and relationships in this game. For instance, Denise wasn't really that close in relationships or emotionally with anybody, so when she wrote their name down, the knife didn't go as deeply. But I actually made some very deep connections out there, so what happens then is when I write their name down, it hurts. And what you lay on top of hurt is anger, so when you are hurt and angered by somebody, you don't want to give them a million dollars.
EW: What was your biggest mistake? if you could get a do over on one thing that would put you in a better position to win at the final Tribal Council, what would it be?
If I had 20-20 vision, I would say vote out Denise and keep Abi, and then vote out Malcolm at the final four, and then go sit beside Skupin and Abi, and of course I would have loved to have done that. But without the benefit of 20-20 and only having the benefit of what had happened, which was Malcolm being on a challenge-winning run and there's no end in sight and assuming he's probably going to win the final four immunity challenge and we need all of our best guns there. And Denise has two of the best guns on the whole show, so we needed everybody to try to beat Malcolm, because if anyone is sitting next to Malcolm at the end, nobody is going to win.
EW: I don't buy for a second that poll Probst took at the reunion where people said they would have still voted for Denise over Malcolm at the end.
I really don't. The truth is, there's not one person on that jury that didn't like Malcolm.
EW: I know CBS is probably already outside your house begging you to come back on this show. Would you go back?
I don't know. It really is a lot like childbirth. You don't ask a woman right after she's delivered the baby and you don't ask her when she's been up all night and is exhausted, and you don't really ask her when the kid is running around and getting into everything. Give me a little time and then ask me again.
EW: I'm curious about what it' s like generally being back in the spotlight. You're back on primetime television, and you win the fan favorite vote and everybody is loving Lisa again. But you're also a person that wants to guard your privacy. So what is it like having to be out in the public eye again.
It's funny. I was just telling my friend yesterday that I feel two very strong but opposing drives in me. There's one drive that loves acting and wants to do what I enjoy doing for living and along with the privilege of having a platform that I want to do for good. I want to be a channel for the love of God to flow through me to touch this world and bring His light to the world. But there is another part of me that just wants to kind of run away and be a grandmother eventually and have family parties, because this is my happy place when I am just with my family and enjoying those relationships without all the pressure that comes with speaking up and speaking out. And, you know, not everyone is going to love everything you say. And it does hurt when you get the backlash and the judgment.
EW: Well, it's always great when fans like you and Malcolm do well and make it far in the game. It just seems to mean more when it is someone whose dream it is to play this game, as opposed to someone who was just found by casting in a bar and has no real connection and history with the show.
Well, thank you, and the great part is that it hasn't really ended and the dream has not stopped because I got to play Survivor and now I'm actually going to be doing some co-hosting on Jeff's talk show for the next couple of weeks. So the prizes just keep coming. We're going to try out a little co-hosting and see how that works so I'm gong to try a handful of shows with him this week that will air in January. We really did have some good back and forth at Tribal Council. It felt right, and it was fun and easy and hopefully we can bring that to his talk show too.
