I heard this story this weekend. (a slightly different version, but heck, I didn't want to type the whole thing so I just found this one on the web instead)
Southern Charm Two informally dressed ladies started conversing during an endless wait in the LAX airport. The conversation turned to children. The first woman, from New York, started by saying, "When my first child was born, my husband built a beautiful mansion for me." The second woman, a genteel Southerner, commented, "Well, isn't that precious?" The first woman continued, "When my second child was born, my husband bought me a beautiful Mercedes-Benz. Again, the lady from the South commented, "Well, isn't that precious?" The first woman continued boasting, "Then, when my third child was born, my husband bought me this exquisite diamond bracelet." Yet again, the Southern lady commented, "Well, isn't that precious?" The first woman then asked her companion, "What did your husband buy for you when you had your first child?" "My husband sent me to charm school," declared the Southern lady. "Charm school?" the first woman cried, "Oh, my! What on earth for?" The Southern lady responded, "Well for example, instead of saying "Who gives a crap?" I learned to say, "Well, isn't that precious" |

There are many things about the South I've come to love, but the ability to say just about *anything* 'sweetly' has got to be the best... |

Tackling Solo Improv (or 1mprov)
Improv is (almost without exception) a joy to perform, because there's such a dynamic and focused connection between the performers. Last night I learned how that relationship works when there's just one performer.
Last night's Happy Place was another great comedy event. And not just because there was some leftover cake from Horse's (of Horse & Louis) recent birthday party. Nope, there was a lovely crowd, some quality acts (not least of which was a teaser taster of Max & Ivan's upcoming Con Artist Edinburgh Fringe show. For me, it was a bit of a milestone, as it was the first time I've stepped onstage, alone, with no idea what I was about to do, and just improvised.
Solo improv, I learned, is terrifying and wonderful, exhilarating and freeing. Last night was very informal; also, I had the excuse that Dave Waller was unavailable, so it was logical that I was by myself, fulfilling our obligation. For just last night, 'Marbles' became the singular 'Marble', or the adapted 'One Man's Marbles'.
So, after justifying my lone presence, I just got into it. I began with audience chats, (especially gently teasing a German girl), before getting into a scene based on the word 'trumpet'.
That scene sparked a discussion with the audience about childhood passions or achievements, which led to a monologue scene taking place at Blockbuster video, where a struggling filmmaker explained the concept behind his short movie. It was poetic and authentic. And, as it came to a satisfying conclusion, I took the opportunity to not press my luck, and said goodnight.
I'm not sure how long I was up there for, it felt simultaneously like almost no time at all, and approximately three hours. The truth was probably something like twelve or so minutes. A respectable span of time, and the audience seemed to have enjoyed themselves.
Afterwards, a few of the other acts commented on my 'massive balls' for going it alone. Being cited for onstage bravery can be a backhanded compliment (i.e. "That was awful, but I respect you're bullheaded enough to plow on with your shit"). However, I'm pretty confident that wasn't the sense they were using.
So that first test of getting onstage alone, with no idea what's about to happen, has been put to rest. The verdict is yes, I'd like to do it again. Every so often. It's nerve-wracking and exhausting, but a challenge replete with rewards. Not always with literal cake, as there was last night, but presumably more learning and confidence from each show.
However, I look forward to stepping back on stage with other people. In particular, reuniting with Dave Waller for a weekend trip to Belgium for Marbles shows and workshops at the end of the month.
More on that soon.

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 Louise!
Facts about Louise
- Breed: Spitz (Unknown Type, Small) Mix
- Color: Black
- Age: Young
- Size: Small 25 lbs (11 kg) or less
- Sex: Female
Louise's Info...
I am already spayed, up to date with shots, and good with dogs.
Louise is a 12 lb female mini black Spitz. She and her sister, Thelma, hope to be adopted together, as they are very attached to each other. They are very sweet, but a little shy. They love to run and play and have discovered the fun of toys too! They are OK is the car. They are still learning about leashes and taking walks. If you have a big securely fenced yard, have the time and patience to work with a pair of adorable little furgirls, please drop us an email! Over 21 yr old applicants only.
Spay scheduled this week!
CONTACT BY EMAIL: firstname.lastname@example.com
Other Pets at Chicagoland Eskie Rescue
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Louise, a Elmhurst Spitz (Unknown Type, Small) dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Spitz (Unknown Type, Small) for sale in Elmhurst, or seeking a Spitz (Unknown Type, Small) dog from a breeder in Elmhurst.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Elmhurst 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 Elmhurst 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 Spitz (Unknown Type, Small) breeders who help with Spitz (Unknown Type, Small) rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Elmhurst paves the way for another one to be saved.

Chatterbox: Our Mr. T Gets His Groove On (A.K.A. the Episode 3 Chat)
by Debra Puchalla in Community, Recap, June 20, 2010It's been an all-star Sunday: Bob Tuschman dazzled millions (overstatement is only slight) of chatting fans from Chelsea Market, our wee Mission Control, crackers and cheese complimentary. On the double big screens in the Boardroom and on single big screens in living rooms everywhere, there was bigger-than-life Guy Fieri guest-judging on Star--he was off-the-hook tough. The spectacle included a very long multitalentedish Tilt-a-Whirl dance down a very long red carpet. And then there was a handful (footful?) of drama between Serena and Brianna. Yes, a trip to a hospital was involved. Oh, and by the way how do you feel about glass with your slaw?
Bob answered burning questions: What are the most important star qualities? Where do you most like to travel? Exactly how tall is Susie? But Bob also couldn't help but jump into the fray as duets were, um, challenging in the challenge and solos way went off-key, too. Happily, there were, well, sexy moments logging as highlights. Just catching up with your DVR? Follow along with the chat play-by-play below. Saw the action? Enjoy it again, with commentary. To call it entertaining would be an understatement.
Grab all of tonight's recipes and tell us what you cook and how it turns out. Then vote -- up to ten times every day -- for your favorite finalist.

Isn't it weird Jackie Chan didn't voice himself? It's like, say, Weird Al having his own cartoon and not voicing himself. C'mon!

@JayGirl10 Actually as a Producer of the show he opted out for fulfilling his own voice for the role to give the opportunity to a young voice actor who needed a break. It turned out well for the actor because after which he began being offered many more roles. Has nothing to do with budget; Jackie has said in an interview that had he of had to he would of even done it for free because he loves cartoons and creating one was one of his (now amazingly accomplished) dreams. Nothing to do with budget constraints as it was a very successful show. I also heard that Jackie donated most of his profits if not all to childrens charities.

Yesterday, I bought my fourth mobile number and it increased numbers of active phone connections on my name to six. Ten years back, it was unimaginable for me that I will have so many connections on my name because at that time, people were required to pay for incoming calls at the rate of Rs 8 per minute. Today incoming call to any mobile phone in India is free expect for roaming; therefore, any person can have any number of mobile numbers.
Cost of using a mobile phone or a general telephone has decreased drastically and even people can now think about making international calls whereas STD calls have become like Local calls. Though presently India is second biggest market of telecommunication (by number of mobile connections) just behind China; however, we are all set to become number one as it is becoming more and more economical day by day to afford a mobile phone and a connection. These decreasing prices are making India a strong connected nation where people are taking full advantage of full connectivity.
Life of ordinary people has become very easy and information can be transmitted from one place to other place Kilometres away in just few seconds. Soon 3G will become a big reality in India and it is all set to change how we use a mobile phone. People will not only talk but they will see each other live through their mobile only. If in 10 years, we can see such a big growth then what will happen in next 10 years.

My vinyl siding was power washed last fall and already there is some mildew coming back. I need to spray something on it. All I have ever heard says that chlorox is needed to kill mildew. I see that there are now oxy cleaners being sold for mildew. As that would be less toxic I would like to use an oxy cleaner. Is there any hope that it would be effective? |

I use oxyclean to clean our vinyl siding and it works really very well... Bleach is toxic to plants and critters, so I tend to want to stay away from it.. |
Thank you pineviewplanter. That is what I hoped to hear. |

i've tried to activate mine like a million times and it comes up saying that i need to check my network connection every single time
I have the same issue, it says "Could not sign in. Please check your network connection and try again."
I've used the same Apple ID to log into the app store and icloud.
Is everyone else's saying "Use your Apple ID for iMessage"?
Mine is stuck at waiting to activate and it's really annoying.
Come on apple.
Same here! iPhone 5 had no trouble but ipad ver4 gives me the same message as everyone else!
Same exact problem. iMessages, FaceTime and push notifications won't work since I get sign into my account apparently. Also all my app updates disappeared suddenly without having updated them yet. This looks promising.. Come on Apple fix this crap.
iPod Touch 5 is working, but iPad 3 is a no-go for iMessage and FaceTime.
Go to Settings>General>Reset(its at the bottom) and hit "Reset Network Settings". Fixed it for me, should work.
I already tried that and it didn't work for me.

Slavery? Yes, it did happen here. As did escapes.
When we think of the cruel legacy of slavery and the bloody Civil War that ended the South's so-called peculiar institution, it's unlikely that images of the verdant, sparsely populated Washington Territory soon come to mind. But settlers brought the seeds of the war with them, and the issues of slavery, race, secession, and civil liberties divided communities and loyalties in the Pacific Northwest.
Seattle MOHAI public historian Dr. Lorraine McConaghy and co-author Prof. Judy Bentley detail a fascinating story of this era in Washington Territory in their new book Free Boy: A True Story of Slave and Master (University of Washington Press). Free Boy recounts how, in 1860, a group of courageous free blacks arranged for the flight of 13-year-old Charles Mitchell aboard the steamer Eliza Anderson to freedom in the Crown Colony of Victoria.
In addition to her work at the Museum of History and Industry, McConaghy also teaches at the University of Washington. Her other books include Raise Hell and Sell Newspapers, Warship Under Sail, and New Land North of the Columbia. She is a recipient of the prestigious Robert Gray Medal from the Washington State Historical Society. McConaghy also planned the Washington Territorial Civil War Read-In, an ambitious project of the Washington State Historical Society to recruit hundreds of citizens to research and document the Civil War era territorial experience from 1857 to 1871, an effort to uncover stories that have been buried and forgotten.
Free Boy co-author, Prof. Judy Bentley, teaches at South Seattle Community College and is the author of Hiking Washington's History, along with fourteen books for young adults.
McConaghy recently discussed Free Boy and her eye-opening research on Washington Territory during the Civil War era.
Robin Lindley: How did you find the story of young Charles Mitchell's escape from slavery in Washington Territory to freedom in Canada?
McConaghy: In 2008, the Museum of History and Industry hosted a traveling exhibit from the Constitution Center in Philadelphia called "Lincoln, the Constitution and the Civil War." My job as the museum's public historian is to root a traveling show like that in the local experience so that it's relevant to our visitors and makes sense regionally and locally.
I had been told all my life that there was no Civil War to talk about in Washington Territory, but [as I read] it was very clear that people in Washington Territory had strong opinions on states' rights and slavery.
I was blown out of my chair when I read the Olympia Pioneer and Democrat on microfilm from September 1860 and saw a little article headlined "Fugitive Slave Case." I thought they were reporting news from the east about the Underground Railroad [but] it was about a boy fleeing Olympia for Victoria. I couldn't believe it. I'd never known that there was a slave or any slaves in Washington Territory, let alone one so young who had fled on this tiny Puget Sound Underground Railroad.
No one had ever mentioned this to me, or that there were advocates of slavery publishing their views in the newspaper. As I read, I found treasonous organizations in Washington Territory and many officers resigning their commissions in the Army and Navy and even the governorship of the territory to go south. It turned out this was a big story.
As you studied this Civil War history, how did you decide to write about the Charles Mitchell story?
I thought it was a story for young people. Here was a boy who didn't accept his fate. No one knows his exact age. He was born in 1847, but in the 1850 slave census, there was no birth date given but only a hash mark. So he was twelve and a half or thirteen when he ran away.

I had no idea that Victoria was 25% black in the middle of the 19th c -- fascinating!

I wonder if Charles Mitchell has descendants. Perhaps the book details this.
Posted Thu, Apr 4, 10:54 p.m.
Slavery was alive and well long before white and black people got here. The last slave freed by the Quinault's was Old Dan and they give a date of 1905 in their book "Land of the Quinault". I called the tribe and asked if this was the correct date and they weren't interested in commenting about it. So there's a good chance that slavery lasted for years after the Civil War here in the Pacific Northwest.
Oregon has an interesting racial history, see for yourself here

The pro-Confederate, white supremacist Knights of the Golden Circle had their "castles" in Washington and Oregon, and other more moderate pro-secessionists were also here. We shouldn't pretend that everybody here was Lincoln's friend. There was lots of opposition to the Civil War in Washington Territory during Lincoln's presidency that translated into vehement attacks on him as president. Democrats called him "King Lincoln, the Fiendish Ape" whose arrogance sent hundreds of thousands of men to their deaths for nothing. These are our newspapers, our settlers – their opinions.
It's not all that different today. There is a huge and truly savage plurality of Ayn Rand fascists -- many of them also racist bigots -- lurking just beneath the allegedly-"progressive" gloss given the state by Seattle and Bellingham.
One example is the Republican coup in the state Senate, which has not only forever doomed tax reform but – by its opposition to women's reproductive rights (as manifest in how it killed the Reproductive Parity Act) – is already turning Washington into a de facto red state.
Another example is the two anti-transit-user votes that have rung the death knell for Pierce Transit. The hatefulness demonstrated by the associated on-line debates revealed a depth of racism and socioeconomic malice I haven't seen since I was a civil rights worker in the South. Yes, indeedy-bob: if Nathan Bedford Forrest has been reincarnated anywhere in the United States, it's no doubt in Tacoma and its environs.
The entire state will soon follow. Given the Republican landslide guaranteed in 2016 by Obama the Orator's concluding transformation to Barack the Betrayer – particularly his newly declared war on Social Security and Medicare recipients – come 2017, the Evergreen State will be the Ever-red State, as malevolently reactionary as Michigan or Wisconsin.

wow! your really smart, can I be your friend. I will think just as you wish and always say your the best.I promise to not be a fascist or read ayn rand whatever is needed.Please.
Posted Tue, Apr 9, 11:20 p.m.
Loren --
How can any arrangement in the 2013 State Senate "forever doom tax reform"? Who doomed your education and ability to think critically? Not the State Senate -- what happened to your mind?
Ayn Rand had her faults. She was not a fascist. Don't use big words until you look them up.
Posted Thu, Apr 25, 4:38 p.m.
" by its opposition to women's reproductive rights (as manifest in how it killed the Reproductive Parity Act) –"
Does this "Parity act" give the baby a fair chance to not be killed? If so I am for that type of "parity".

September 10, 2012 - Posted by David to Gel Ink Pens, Ballpoint Pens
Each hour 2,500,000 plastic bottles are used by Americans alone which translates to 22 billion bottles per year in the U.S. Unfortunately, less than 1 in 3 of these bottles are recycled. For everyone who already thinks green to everyone who is discovering the significance of living eco-friendly, put a B2P Gel Ink Pen or Petball Ballpoint Pen in your hand as a daily reminder of the earth we live in. Designed with the environment in mind, Pilot offers two special lines of pens made from recycled plastic bottles. November 9, 2011 - Posted by Brad Dowdy to Ballpoint Pens
Do you remember the first time you used a Uni-Ball Jetstream? Many of us first discovered them in the office supply cabinet at work - at least that is how I did. I honestly couldn't figure it out at first. Is it a ballpoint? A roller ball? A little of both? As it turns out, option number three is pretty close. The ink is a special formulation designed to provide a smooth, smear-free writing experience. Did I mention the ink is fade and water resistant, and archival safe? Yeah, that too. It is unlike any other ballpoint you have ever used. One of my favorite things about the Jetstream is the wide array of options available. From the entry level Basic Series, to the mid level Rubber Body Series, to the higher end Alpha Gel and Multi Pen models, there is a Jetstream out there to suit your needs. For new and experienced writers, there is not a pen I have recommended more, which makes the Uni-Ball Jetstream a JetPens Classic. October 28, 2011 - Posted by Elizabeth to Ballpoint Pens
One of the new items released last week was the frequently requested Fisher Bullet Space Pen!
(Available Matte Black Body and Desert Tan Body not pictured.) Available in several delicious colors, the Fisher Space Pen - Bullet model is another great addition to our pressurized pen selection. The sealed ink cartridges inside these pens are pressurized at about 45 pounds per square inch. This gives you a ballpoint pen that will write over virtually any surface, and at any angle! (It will write upside down, underwater, over grease, and in extreme cold and hot temperatures.) Another feature is that the ink refills themselves have an estimated shelf life of 100 years. (No, the pen itself will not last you for 100 years of daily writing, but you can buy multiple ink refills and store them for long periods of time without worrying about them drying out.) This compact pen makes a perfect companion for your everyday writing needs, and will fit easily into your bag or purse, even your pants pocket. Clips are also available for all you pocket-carrying guys out there! July 29, 2011 - Posted by Elizabeth to Ballpoint Pens
Here at JetPens, we carry some excellent examples of Japanese ingenuity. We decided to feature our ballpoint pens that are pressurized, so that they will write almost anywhere! Normal pens utilize gravity to create ink flow onto a paper. These ballpoint pens however, allow internal compressed air pressure to basically push their ink out onto the paper.
Listed in order from left to right:
1. Tombow AirPress Apro Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Green
2. Tombow AirPress Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - 2010 New Body Color - Clear Body
3. Pilot Down Force Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Moss Green Body - Black Ink
4. Uni-ball Power Tank Ballpoint Pen - 0.7 mm - Black Body - Black Ink
All of these pens boast the ability to write in extremely cold conditions, zero-gravity environments, on wet surfaces and at any angle. We put one of those claims to the test, by thoroughly soaking a page of our Rhodia DotPad Notepad with a Pentel Aquash Waterbrush Pen, for a writing test.
First we wrote with the Tombow AirPress Ballpoint Pen. Both versions have the exact same internal parts and writing performance, the only difference is the body style. The word "Tombow Airpress" was written with the Apro version (designed with a sturdy clip perfect for your apron) and the three lines underneath were written with the original version, that has a durable body designed for strenuous conditions like constructions sites.
Writing on the wet paper was not necessarily ideal, but the ink came out well enough to read perfectly (it looks a little light in the photograph because of our professional grade flash and light box).
Next, we wrote with the Pilot Down Force ballpoint pen. This pen performed just as well as the two Tombow pens, with a steady ink flow just as visible.
Lastly, we tested out the capabilities of the ever-popular Uni-ball Power Tank pen. This pen wrote just as smoothly on our wet paper, and the ink appeared slightly darker. It did however, seem to feather a bit towards the end, when it hit a particularly saturated part of the paper with standing water on the surface.
Over all, these pens are true to their advertising and write very well on a very wet piece of paper. I was also able to write with them at a ninety-degree angle, and even upside down on a post-it stuck under my desk!
What would you use these versatile pens for?
When you are on the go, it is nice to have access to a writing instrument when you need to jot something down quickly. The team at JetPens has made a list of our best compact sized pens, which are perfect for carrying in your pocket or purse.
Kaweco Sport Fountain Pens These fountain pens have a great compact size when capped, but extend to a comfortable writing size when posted. They are available in a variety of colors and finishes, with plastic or aluminum bodied versions. Ohto Rook Fountain Pens Another small sized fountain pen, the Ohto Rook has a soft shape displaying a beautiful symmetry of form. Ohto Needle-Point Cap Ballpoint Pens These pens are part of another great compact pen series from Ohto, and they fit perfectly into a purse or planner. Ohto Tasche Line The Tasche Line is another great design from Ohto, and is available in a few different formats. The fountain pen, roller ball, ballpoint and mechanical pencil form all have the same convenient compact shape. Lamy Pico Pocket Size Extendable Ballpoint Pens These neat looking ballpoint pens from LAMY do not have a cap so they are very convenient for grabbing your pen simply clicking the end to start writing. Ohto Needle-Point Slim Line Ballpoint Pens Though these Ohto ballpoint pens are not short, they are very slim and great for tucking into a notebook or planner. Pilot Birdy Stainless Steel Body Mini Ballpoint Pen These are tiny little pens that are not only short, but very slim as well. They fit great in a pocket or even a wallet, just make sure not to lose them! Zebra Mini Ballpoint Pen Another tiny pen great for your wallet or planner. Zebra Minna Mini Ballpoint Pens with Japanese Print These pretty Zebra pens are great for keeping in your purse. Each pen has a strip of decoration which is actually Japanese paper! The cap can be posted on the back of the pen for writing comfort. Zebra Penpod Mini Keychain Pens These miniature pens are great for quick writing needs, and can latch on to cell phones, purses, key chains and more! Pilot Pockel Mini Gel Ink Pens If you prefer gel ink pens, these are just the thing for you! Perfect for quick note-taking or list-making, these pens come in 10 different colors and have smooth, non-skipping ink inside.

Uli 12'6″ SUP
ULI's newest race/tour/surf SUP the 12′ 6" x 32" is now available. We've surfed and paddled our 12′ 6" SUP for over three years now. Our prototype 12′ 6"s are the ONLY inflatables to have competed alongside hardboards in the "Battle of the Paddle" "Elite division" two years in a row. The board is stable and light weight and like all of our boards 70% completed in the USA, by surfers and paddlers, using components and materials also made in the USA. Tri-fin setup.
Height: | 12′ 6" |
Width: | 32″ |
Thickness: | 3 7/8″ |
Weight: | 26 lbs |
These functional lightweight, foldable boards are constructed of the same sturdy material used in military inflatable boats making them extremely durable and UV resistant, as well as maneuverable. The ULI Stand-Up Paddle Boards are rigid and stable enough to paddle quickly and hold steady in the waves. The first inflatable board of its kind, the patent-pending ULI offers incomparable ease of transportability with quality performance. While ideal for travel, these boards can tackle some of the most challenging waves. The ULI is perfect for lakes and rivers, making the introduction of stand-up paddle boarding to those who live inland.

Dr. Phil
A flat-chested young lady went to Dr. Phil to see about enlarging her
breasts. Dr Phil told her, "Everyday after your shower, rub your
nipples and say, 'Scooby, doobie, doobies, I want bigger boobies'."
She did this faithfully for several months and it worked! She grew
great boobs! One morning she was running late for work, got on the
bus and realized she had forgotten her morning ritual. Frightened she
might lose her lovely boobs if she didn't do the little rhyme, she got
right out there in the aisle and started chanting "Scooby, doobie,
doobies, I want bigger boobies." A guy sitting nearby asked, "Are you
a patient of Dr. Phil's by any chance?" "Why, yes, I am. How did you
know?" He leaned closer, winked and whispered, "Hickory, dickory,
dock ... "

- Strawberry to county on housing zone: No way
County proposals promoting affordable housing in unincorporated communities across Marin target sites in Mill Valley, San Rafael, Marin City and Fairfax for low- and moderate-income development, urge policies accommodating multi-family projects and call for study of rent control.
The latest housing program at the Civic Center will be aired at 5 p.m. Monday, July 28, when the county Planning Commission convenes for the first of three hearings on how to meet state housing requirements. Officials expect the chambers to be packed.
"Unfortunately, housing is a divisive issue in our community," said county principal planner Leelee Thomas. "We will have a big crowd."
"Any breach of single-family home zoning designations will lead to the rapid urbanization of Marin," said Stephen Nestel, founder of savemarinwood.org. "Every homeowner within a half mile of the 101 corridor should be alert to this latest move by the county."
And Riley Hurd, an attorney for Strawberry homeowners concerned about housing development, contended some staff proposals, including a bid to promote multi-family development by all but banning residential development in some areas, represents a "ticking time bomb."
A comprehensive staff report by Thomas and planner Alisa Stevenson notes that state requirements indicate Marin's unincorporated areas need to provide for potential development of 185 housing units, including 37 moderate and 87 lower-income units, through 2023. Although that's about a quarter of the 773 homes that were part of the county's controversial 2007-2014 housing plan, the program is expected to generate continued concern in potential development sites.
The staff report recommends three sites for lower-income units: 72 units at Marinwood Village, 40 at Seminary Drive on the Golden Gate Baptist Theological Seminary campus, and 40 at California Park near Woodland Avenue and Auburn Street in San Rafael.
The Marinwood recommendation persists despite the ouster of Supervisor Susan Adams, who championed an 82-unit plan including 72 lower-income units. San Rafael City Councilman Damon Connolly, elected in June to replace Adams as county supervisor next January, called for fewer units during his campaign, but was short on specifics.
In addition, four sites are proposed for moderate-income units, including 10 units each at 217 Shoreline Highway and at 204 Flamingo Road, both in the Mill Valley area, and at 2400 Sir Francis Drake Blvd. in Fairfax. Three moderate units could be built at 150 Shoreline Highway, according to the report, which also notes a number of second units could be built in various areas.
Further, 61 "above moderate income" units could be built, with 43 at Easton Point on Paradise Drive in Tiburon, and another 10 at Marinwood Village, the staff said.
Several alternatives are suggested, including one essentially repeating proposals in the 2007-14 housing program adopted last year, and another that calls for 60 lower-income units at the Baptist seminary, 50 at California Park and 72 in Marinwood.
The planning report notes that the program merely identifies "opportunities for housing development that already exist according to the countywide plan and zoning" and that "regardless of whether housing sites are included in the next housing element, they have potential to be developed subject to the county land use authority."
Community Development Director Brian Crawford's staff also recommended a range of actions promoting housing development, including study of whether multi-family zoning should be "redistributed" to alternate locales "better suited" and more capable of accommodating housing complexes.
Multi-family development should be required in multi-family zones, the staff recommended, proposing a policy to "prohibit single family dwellings in multi-family zones" unless director Crawford approves an exception.
Attorney Hurd called the policy "outrageous," saying it would ban single-family homes in areas including portions of Paradise Drive and near Lucas Valley Road, but planner Thomas said the policy merely says "we have a limited amount of sites that can accommodate multi-family housing."
The staff also recommended study of "density equivalents" based on square footage or bedroom counts, a move apparently encouraging more but smaller units; community outreach to boost support of affordable housing; and increasing tenant protections including study of rent control. Rent control emerged as an issue during community meetings held during the spring, Thomas said, adding, "I wouldn't call it a radical proposal."
Also recommended is consideration of creating a new county panel: The Marin County Housing Equity Commission.
"The commission would study best practices, and take action to develop support for housing for low and moderate income households in Marin," the staff said.

I started sewing the bordered diamond blocks together, having never (that I can remember) worked with diagonal rows before, I've quickly realized that this is hard! What I mean is the side diamonds. I flip the triangle over to the adjoining block where I think it should go and sew it, flip it back and it's not where it should be. Well, I guess by the time I've finished it I will hopefully be an expert, if not I'll probably never do one again! I think if there weren't narrow borders around these blocks it would be easier to figure out. Looked online to see if there were any tip videos, couldn't find any, mostly stuff about navel piercing! UGH!! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Rita, I think you'll have to do a lot of pinning on this. Try inserting a pin, 1/4" from the fabric edges right on the two seams. If you can line up the seams with the pins it should match up when you stitch it. I hope that makes sense! Kate |

Or, you can start piercing navels! I hear there's money in that. |
Starch is your friend (for the quilting, not the piercing). beverly |
HAH! You know, I'm so addle-brained right now with this sinus thing and all this OTC medication, I've just now realized that when I searched I probably typed "piercing diagonal rows" instead of "piecing diagonal rows"! Maybe I need to back off of sewing right now, I'm liable to actually do some "piercing" instead of "piecing". It's like when I searched images once on sunburst quilts, all these pictures of guitars kept coming up, what's up with that??? Yes, Kate, I do believe a lot of pinning (oh no, not another "p" word) is in my future, I'll have to make sure not to do it on my lap! LOL! |

Desert Diversity: Namibia
Highlights: Namib-Naukluft National Park, Africa's largest reserve; Etosha National Park, renowned for plains game; the northwest's Damaraland for fossilized trees and desert elephants; haunting Skeleton Coast National Park.
Namibia's otherworldly desert landscapes and dramatic coastal plains hit the traveler's radar in the mid 2000's and have since grown in popularity. The challenge has always been how to navigate the great distances between attractions and camps. Lately more travelers are opting for high-end, privately guided safaris—involving helicopters and light planes—to visit the most far-flung corners, such as Wilderness Safaris' eight-villa Serra Cafema camp near the Angola border. At the same time, operators are now offering more affordable group tours. Geographic Expeditions has eight-person safaris that travel from Windhoek to Damaraland for just over $3,000 a person. Wild About Africa also features a nine-day group itinerary, with a tour of the Fish River Canyon, for only $1,179 per person.
When to Go: year round
Top Operators:
Cox & Kings 7 days from $5,435.
Expert Africa 7 days from $2,811.
Geographic Expeditions 7 days from $7,700.
Skeleton Coast Safaris 6 days from $8,885.
Wild About Africa 8 days from $1,053.

Quoted from rattabone I've been with Dr. D'Adamo since the mid-ninetys. What has kept me going is what he stated in one of his early books. As Americans he understands what's out there and how we're tempted. He helped me by stating that if we only "fall off the wagon" once a week our systems can usually handle it. A good example of this was of a case history of a Jewish patient in his seventies. The man was/is a type B and was bedridden when the doctor saw him. He finally regained his health but only after eliminating chicken from his diet. It was an ingredient in one of the gentleman's favorite dishes and he ate it quite often. When his health was recovered, I remember doctor wrote that he told his care giver that she could prepare him that meal once a week. Try to remember that this is a life change...not a diet. Yes, we'll slip now and again, and, sometimes may even go on a multi-day binge. But as time goes by we come to realize the more we avoid our "Avoids", the better we feel and the healthier our bodies. Wishing you the best.
Quoted from Victoria You're moving in the right direction, Hopeful! When we give up something we're attached to, it's a kind thing to do for ourselves to replace it with something that is better.
Quoted from hopeful18 Passionprincess, the description of the effects that caffeine has on you match mine exactly. I don't get hungry when I have anything stronger than green tea. But, I also get a weird shakiness like you. I'm also restless. For example, if I'm on the phone, I'll wonder aimlessly around the house instead of doing housework or sitting down.How do you know that you're estrogen dominant? I've taken several online tests (just questions) that have pegged me as having estrogen dominance also. I was using progesterone for awhile, but stopped because I felt like I could be damaging my hormones since I didn't have a blood test to diagnose this. Also, I totally shed way too much hair! I've never seen a correlation to that & a caffeine-induced estrogen spike. Thanks for sharing because I'll be looking for that now.
Quoted from passionprincess Hi.I suspected estrogen dominance because I had terrible acne and unbelievable menstrual cramps. In addition, I am Korean. My mother and sisters have A cup boobs. I have DD cups at 5'3"! I am skinny otherwise at 100 lbs and wear juniors for clothes. My flow is super heavy and persists. I would get frequent vaginal yeast infections, too.The candida cleanse helped a lot but the cramps and vaginal yeast infections disappeared literally after I started using progesterone cream. I noticed that if I drank a lot of coffee and did not drink enough water - vaginal yeast infection! I read that coffee spikes the estrogen levels in Asian women. High estrogen levels can cause yeast infections. In addition, my mouth would swell into a "duck bill" shape when I drank enough coffee (another sign of estrogen dominance). I would also break out into hives.Being 100% compliant, dropping caffeine (including green tea) and using progesterone cream has really helped my condition. I also tracked when I was shedding hair... it happened to be after my period when my progesterone levels were low and estrogen levels were high. I also limit using cosmetics and use a Dr. Bronner's mixture to wash my hair. I am avoiding all xenoestrogens as much as I can.I compiled info on estrogen dominance from various sources online. Another hint - if you crave chocolate before your period, it is because you are magnesium deficient which is another sign of being estrogen dominant. I crave dark chocolate but never sugary stuff. I do not crave chocolate since following GTD and taking magnesium supps (Dr. D. found that Bs are especially deficient in magnesium).http://www.womenlivingnaturally.com/articlepage.php?id=72http://www.johnleemd.com/store/estrogen_dom.htmlhttp://www.drhoffman.com/page.cfm/183
Quoted from Easy E I recently gave up all sources of caffeine...even tea. Today is day four and i feel more relaxed for sure. Caffeine is prob the biggest toxin explorers struggle with (at least this explorerIt raises stress hormones for me. The first two days, i felt like i could not think and did not want to move. I have been doing exercise that makes me sweat, so i feel clean, also drinking a lot of water.
Quoted from passionprincess How to Use Progesterone CreamThis site was super helpful. I had read elsewhere that all you needed to do was apply the cream around your 14th day or in sync with the moon phases. WRONG! All it did was prevent ovulation, which made things worse.I followed the directions on this site and voila - immediate effect!http://www.progesteronetherapy.com/how-to-use-progesterone-cream.html#axzz1t0IqE16vGood luck!
Quoted from ruthiegirl If you're going to Starbucks because you're craving a specific type of beverage, then making your own at home is a good idea. It probably won't taste exactly the same. What you want is something delicious and satisfying, not neccessarily something that tastes like your old favorite.But if you're meeting up with friends at Starbucks, you can still join them. Starbucks DOES sell plain green tea. The times I've found myself at a Starbucks with friends, that's exactly what I got. I had something warm to drink in a Starbucks cup while chatting with friends eating their Starbucks beverages (and often foods too.) OK, so I paid as much for one cup as I would for a month's worth of loose tea to brew at home, but I didn't feel isolated and I had something healthy to drink that didn't make me feel awful later.
Quoted from JJR I haven't had a caffeinated drink in over 3 years. It's probably more like 4. And I think I'm the better for it. I even tried some decaf at Panera about 2 years ago and 1/4 cup of it made me feel weird. Ramped up. Maybe it's the decaf process. I don't know. But even the green tea I buy is decaf. I do however, eat a little bit of chocolates some days and don't feel any worse for the wear. Just like Joe though, it's 70% or above. And it's not a whole lot when I do eat it. If I ate a whole or even half of a bar, I think I'd be ramped up again, like drinking coffee. Hopeful, you're looking at a 2 latte a day guy. I did this for a long time. Some of them were doubles. I also then switched to chai's. They seemed a little more soothing. And then I eventually gave those up too. I think they add sugar to those at starbucks. They do taste really nice though. I love that flavor. I think it's cardamom, cinnamon, and a few other things. Some kind of tea and maybe clove? Victoria must know what's all in it. I have some explorer traits also. Even though I'm a secretor. I've had genetic testing done that showed quite a few problems with my detox system. Which can make a person sensitive to drugs and certain substances like caffeine.
Quoted from hopeful18 I've gotten the green tea at Starbucks several times too. It's a great idea! I just have to put the crazy cost of one tea bag & hot water out of my head. I tend to think, "if I'm going to pay that much for green tea, I might as well spend $1.50 more & get the good stuff!" Oh, the extent I will go to when I'm addicted to something. But, it is way better to "overpay" for a bene than to "way overpay" for a drink full of avoids for me!
Quoted from Enobattar Just a side note concerning caffinated/decaffinated beverages. If it comes in a bag (tea or coffee), to decaffinate, simply immerse in boiling water and count to 30. Remove the bag (no need to squeeze); the reimmerse in fresh water.This information was passed on to me by an employee at our local, upscale tea house. The owner told her that most or the caffine escapes within the first 30 seconds. I don't know if decaffinated is more expensive than caffinated (don't ever buy it) but I've read that the commercial decaffinated process uses an ingredient found in rat poisoning.So, if you want to try it, let us know what you think.
Quoted from ruthiegirl You're not paying $1.50 for 5 cents worth of tea. You're paying 5 cents for the tea and $1.45 for the atmosphere and the experience of sharing a hot cup with your friends at Starbucks.And the plain green tea is "the good stuff." Why pay more for sugar and additives that will only make you feel sick?You can also invite your friends to your house for tea and chat instead of always going out for beverages. Or see if they want to get their drinks "to go" and you bring something from home, which you then share at a local park. There are plenty of alternatives if you take the time to seek them out. Or, if your friends are really married to the idea of sitting in Starbucks, join them with the safe green tea. Depending on how often you do this, it's not THAT expensive if you think of it as part of your "entertainment budget" rather than thinking of it as "overpriced green tea."
Quoted from hopeful18 On a good note, I have gotten a green tea instead of the drink I should avoid several times. I'm getting closer!
Quoted from JJR Starbucks is the McDonalds of Coffee. Hehehheheheh. They get us hooked somehow or another. You can overcome the addiction. It just takes time. Plus, I'm kind of fanatical in my ways anyways. So when I make up my mind to do something, I go all out. Like when I quit smoking, I quit cold turkey. And I didn't get any physical withdrawals. Which probably was some help from the LORD in that. In all of this. But I do notice others seem to take a little bit more time sometimes. It's OK. I think it's just different personalities. I don't always change that quick either. Like I said, I drank Chai's for a while too. But that was all pre BTD. I didn't think they were that bad for me at the time. And they sure tasted good!!!! Either way, you are to be commended for at least thinking about your health, taking action and questioning what the world thinks is OK. It's easy to follow what everyone else is doing. But it's not always the best thing. Although I really don't see a problem with hanging out at starbucks once in a while. But I guess every day a couple times a day, like I used to do, is probably not a good idea. Hard on the wallet and the body. hehehhee

Meet Isabel Fernandez, Chief Commercial Officer – GE Capital, EMEA, London
Isabel Fernandez is Chief Commercial Officer – GE Capital, EMEA, London. In this interview she shares her experience working for GE.
What is your current role?
Chief Commercial Officer of GE Capital EMEA
How did you start your working life?
After graduating from law school, I started as a management trainee working for a large bank. My first job off-programme was as an analyst for large corporate clients in the bank.
What has been the journey to that role in terms of other career milestones?
Whenever presented with two opportunities, I have always taken the more challenging role, the one where the learning curve was highest. Making the change to GE was a defining moment, as the company is as much focused on your performance as it is on the potential you have to become a future leader. It never ceases to develop and challenge you.
When did you decide you wanted to take this career route?
I never took the conscious decision, though I always looked for the challenge. Careers tend to be better defined in hindsight than when you are in the midst of one.
What do you most enjoy about your job?
Working in a culturally diverse environment with amazing people; GE's culture is very down to earth and it has very talented people.
Have you had an important mentor along the way?
Most of my mentors have been informal relationships, where I had the opportunity to seek advice at many points in my career.
How has GE helped you progress in your career?
GE has invested tremendously in my training and development, has supported the GE Women's Network, where I had my first leadership roles and given me a lot of exposure across the company globally.
What tips and advice would you give to young women starting out on their career today?
Firstly, not worry too much about potential compromises you think you may need to make later in your career (dual careers, parenthood, care for elderly etc), as many of the perceived problems get resolved naturally. Never to have regret or guilt and try to really enjoy what you do. When you enjoy something, you spend more time on it and get better naturally.
Where do you see yourself in 5 years' time?
Still working in a diverse environment, with a challenging job, could be anywhere in the world!
In your words, why do you think GE has been named one of the Times Top 50 employers for women?
An active recruiter of female talent, an organisation with true focus on diversity and a culture of meritocracy where it matters less where or when you work but rather what results you achieve.

We had to get proof of this affair caught on camera, the lawyer made this quite clear after yet another visit to his office. I remember thinking, well what does it really matter in the grand scheme of things if they are cheating or not, but we prepared to do as we were told. I think it was because Stella was still denying any affair to her lawyer and her family – so we really needed to flush this bitch out.
"How To Give Your Woman 'Killer' Orgasms And Have The Best Sex Humanly Possible!"
Click Here!Noddy - really...
At this time I worked at a leisure centre where there was an Entertainment Department and that year 'Noddy' was the resident attraction. I mentioned to the head of that department, who I got on with really well, about what was going on in my life and that I needed a disguise. He took me into the wardrobe section and picked up Noddy's costume head and we both said together 'they will never recognise you in that' ha - a good idea, but maybe a tad extreme!!!
We found a wig which would suffice for the purpose and off I went wig in hand prepared for the next installment of playing private detective. Would we get this affair caught on camera? It seemed a tough call to me, but we will see...
Wigs on ...
It was my brother's turn to have the kids this particular night so we thought this would be a good time that Rick and Stella would get together, so Alex got someone to babysit and away we went, wigs on and cheap auction car all filled up with petrol.
We drove past Rick's house and yes they were both there, so we found a good place not too far to park up the car and we set off through the fields and around the back of the houses video recorders in hand. I must admit the butterflies were going mad in my stomach, but I was more bothered that we would be spotted by a nosy neighbour who may have called the police wondering what we were doing at night behind their house than actually putting myself through the cruelty of catching my ex at it again with Alex's wife.
do these people NEVER close their bloody curtains ...
Yes they were in full view – do these people NEVER close their bloody curtains......
We started filming, we thought it best that we both had video cameras in case one didn't work properly etc. It was obvious what they were up to again, I remember asking Alex how did he feel about all this – he said he felt numb.
At one point their outside security light came on and I thought 'oh my god we are in trouble now' but Rick and Stella didn't even notice.
We got everything the lawyer wanted so we high tailed it out of there back to the car and on the way we were pretending to look for our lost dog – gently calling it by name – Rover I think!!!! Just in case anyone had seen us we had an alibi.... clever eh!!!
We went back to Alex's house to discuss the events of the evening and watched over the videos. There was no denying any affair was taking place now – as this affair was caught on camera - ha, busted...
