When Nashville matched that offer sheet for Shea Weber, effectively inking him to a 14-year contract, I had this mental image of Paul Holmgren in his office.
There he is, on Capgeek, scanning the list of un-signed restricted free agents. "Kulikov, Petrecki, Del Zotto… no, these don't seem like my jam. Wait! Is PK Subban any good?"
Holmgren then called up his top scout to confirm that, yes, PK Subban was real good. "What is his agent's name?"
I guessed that Holmgren might use some of the funds that he had set aside for Weber to use on Subban, the pernicious face of the Montreal Canadiens. Unlike Weber, Subban is only 23 but, like Weber, the addition would help out a group that lost Matt Carle this summer and is unlikely to see the return of Chris Pronger.
But none of this happened.
In fact, it doesn't seem like Montreal has too much interest in signing Subban either. There was a report that went out Wednesday afternoon from RDS that suggested the Montreal Canadiens had offered the free agent two years and $5.5M. That's $5.5M total, not per year.
This has enough of a "crazy enough to be true" aspect to it that I immediately indicted Habs' management for undervaluing the player that ought to be their star player. Perhaps it isn't true that the team offered Subban $5.5M over two years. Perhaps it is. The important thing is that it didn't seem like it was outside the realm of Marc Bergevin and his new staff, who have yet to show me that they're anything more than a few of the "boys on the bus" that don't really apply any creative or pragmatic thinking and overvalue the same thing.
This is the group that handed out contracts to both Colby Armstrong and Brandon Prust on July 1. The fear of every Toronto Maple Leaf fan manifested itself in Montreal somehow, and the Canadiens have yet to plug the holes they created by dealing rentals at last year's deadline.
I'm a fan of PK Subban. I've written about him a couple of times in this space, here and here, defending his play. He puts up real good possession numbers which is a rarity when it comes to young defencemen. On a team as un-coordinated with puck possession as the Montreal Canadiens, particularly in the second half, Subban held strong.
He led his team in both relative Corsi and Corsi On, while playing against the second highest quality of competition (him and Josh Gorges did the heavy lifting by a long-shot) and, like most Montreal players, was forced to start way more shifts in the defensive than the offensive zone. I don't like to use +/- numbers because they often tell the wrong story, but if you look at player numbers with and without Subban, you see that Erik Cole was +22 while on the ice with Subban, Max Pacioretty was +15, Tomas Plekanec was -1 and David Desharnais was +22. Without, the four were, respectively -8, -9, -11 and -7.
Not too often do players border on elite without their team recognizing it. Particularly Bergevin, who made it the focus of his offseason to re-sign Carey Price. He comes from the Chicago system where the team was successful for four seasons playing with outstanding skaters and mediocre goaltending. Bergevin's goal ought to be to match the Chicago model, not do the exact opposite.
This is the last chance the Habs may have to sign Pernell Karl to a long-term deal, one that runs for more than six years, covering all of Subban's prime years and the first few of free agency. I think it makes more sense to lock up the defenceman long term than the goalie and ought to have been Bergevin's priority; a goalie is a goalie, and in six years, the odds that Price will still be considered one of the top goalies in the NHL is slim.
I think the case is legitimate. Carey Price's financial future is secure, while Subban is still without a contract and we've made it all the way to August. Subban didn't have a terrific season offensively last year, but he helped out his teammates doing what he does best: the little things, which is an odd thing to expect out of a primetime, spotlight guy who sells a lot of jerseys.
Not often does a team undervalue its own superstar.

The 40-year-old Argentinean has agreed a two-year deal with Valencia, where he made 138 appearances as a player, winning two league titles and the UEFA Cup under Rafa Benitez.
Benitez brought Pellegrino to Anfield in January 2005, but his performances turned out to be (surprisingly) shaky:
* Liverpool failed to win 9 of the 13 games in which he featured.
* The club conceded an average of a goal a game.
* Only 3 clean sheets in 13 games.
According to Benitez, Pellegrino was brought in to take 'special training session' and to work with defence, probably to assist with the implementation of the Spaniard's zonal marking policy. However, Pellegrino's presence didn't stop the club leaking goals , and didn't improve the club's atrocious league form that year, which ultimately led to a 5th place finish in the league.
The Argentinean returned to Anfield in 2008 as first-team coach under Benitez, and in his first season in the management set-up, Liverpool finished second in the league, which seems to suggest he had a positive impact.
Liverpool finished 7th in Pellegrino's second season as a coach, and he left the club with Benitez in June 2010, and then followed the Spaniard to Inter Milan.
After Markus Babbel and Sami Hyypia, Pellegrino is the third former Liverpool defender to move into management in the last couple of years, though he'll be hoping to emulate Hyypia (unbeaten in 6 games since taking over) rather than Babbel (only 3 wins in 13 games)
Football management can be a poisoned chalice at the best of times, and whatever happens, one thing is guaranteed: Pellegrino will find it impossible to match Benitez's achievements at the Mestella.
You never know though - Pellegrino must have learned a lot working with Benitez, and I'm sure he'll be asking his old boss for tips along the way.
Best of luck, Mauricio!

The development underpins our strategy, as we work closely with you to develop innovative, value-added solutions to meet your every requirement.
We have University Technology Centres (UTCs) in the UK, Norway, Sweden and Korea, establishing new capabilities such as computational fluid dynamic modelling of waterflow and behaviour around propellers, waterjets and ships hulls. This allows us to design propellers with reduced cavitation and higher efficiencies.
Wave piercing technology is a well-proven concept for high-speed catamarans and trimarans; now, Rolls-Royce is bringing the benefits of this type of hullform to the offshore market with the new UT 790 CD design.
In a wave piercer, the hull 'pierces' through the water rather than riding on top of waves, allowing the vessel to run, in theory, continuously at service speeds regardless of sea state, at the same time reducing fuel consumption and improving crew comfort.
Read more about design and technology
Rolls-Royce has its own hydrodynamic research centre in Kristinehamn, Sweden where detailed evaluation of new propellers and waterjet designs is undertaken in two cavitation tunnels. The conventional closed recirculating tunnel tests propellers in open water and offers maximum flexibility for various propeller/ship afterbody tests.
The second tunnel, one of the few free-surface type tunnels in existence, is used for testing high-speed propellers operating in partially submerged conditions, in parallel or oblique flow. The tunnels optimise propulsive efficiency and minimise noise and vibration. Over 1,200 models of sub, semi, and super-cavitating propellers have been tested to-date.
Development and testing of our diesel and gas engines is undertaken at our engine manufacturing facility in Bergen, Norway. The latest Bergen K gas engine produces up to 90 per cent less NOx emissions than traditional diesel engines. This technology is a major step forward in delivering reliable, clean power - and reducing the environmental impact of our products.
We continue to invest in our global production facilities to meet the increasing volume requirements and to cope with anticipated variable demands.
Our aim is to deliver total satisfaction today while thinking ahead to deliver the intelligent marine solutions of tomorrow.

The Stedelijk Museum Amsterdam pays tribute to distinguished Dutch designer Marcel Wanders in his first European exhibition since 1999. Marcel Wanders: Pinned Up at the Stedelijk—running through June15—showcases more than 400 items in the lower-level gallery in the museum's new wing. Furniture, lamps, utensils, cutlery, wallpaper, packaging, and jewelry will be on display, along with images of interiors, design sketches, prototypes, and sculptural objects developed for special projects. Highlights include the Carbon Balloon Chair (2013), which is making its European debut at the exhibit, and a special edition of the iconic Egg Vase.
The exhibit is organized in three parts: a white zone, which analyzes Wanders' work based on 10 themes; a black zone exploring a more personal, experimental approach in a theatrical setting; and a lounge that examines Wanders' role as art director for major design brands.
"Marcel Wanders is a creative and innovative force as a designer, driven by a clear and distinctive vision from the very start of his career: to create an extraordinary and sustainable environment through design," Ingeborg de Roode, Stedelijk's curator of industrial design and exhibition organizer, said in a statement. "Wanders' skills as a communicator, coupled with his business insights, contribute greatly to his success. Few designers can boast such a combination of talents."

Between the late Renaissance and the early nineteenth century, the ancient arts of architecture were being profoundly transformed by the scientific revolution. This important book, which won the 1984 Alice Davis Hitchcock Award, traces the process by which the mystical and numerological grounds for the use of number and geometry in building gave way to the more functional and technical ones that prevail in architectural theory and practice today. Throughout, it relates the major architectural treatises of successive generations to the larger culture and the writings of philosophers, mathematicians, scientists, and engineers.
The book leads the reader through the controversy that was generated by Claude Perrault in the seventeenth century. His writings began to cast doubt on the absolute aesthetic value of the classical orders and the "perfect" proportions that were architecture's legacy from Pythagorean times. Thus the once immutable "invisible" system lost its special status forever. The book focuses in particular on eighteenth-century developments in the science of mechanics and emerging techniques in structural analysis which slowly entered the architectural treatises and found their way into practice, often by way of civil and military engineers. And by the nineteenth century, the book notes, even architectural rendering and drawing were radically changed through the introduction of new descriptive and projective geometries.
Tracing these fundamental changes in architectural intentions, Pérez-Gómez challenges many popular misconceptions about the theory and history of modern architecture. At the same time, he suggests an intangible loss, that of a culture's power to express through a building its total mathematical, mystical, and magical world-view.
About the Author
Alberto Pérez-Gómez is Saidye Rosner Bronfman Professor of the History of Architecture at McGill University. He is the author of Architecture and the Crisis of Modern Science (MIT Press, 1983) and (with Louise Pelletier) Architecural Representation and the Perspective Hinge (MIT Press, 1997).
"Geometry was demoted from its regal status as the generator of forms to being the servant of surveyors and engineers. It is a paradox that this happened as techniques of mensuration and construction, as well as geometrical speculation, intensified. P

"Whalemingo" is a song sung by Buford Van Stomm in "When Worlds Collide". In the song Buford tells his friends about his encounter with Tristan, his whalemingo friend.
Buford: Float by,
Drift through my dreams,
Whalemingo! (Whalemingo!)
In the sky,
Likes strawberry cream,
Whalemingo! (Whalemingo!)
You take a whale,
You drop the fla,
Keep the mingo,
That's how I named it
Whalemingo! (Whalemingo!)
If you see a big, pink whale
With feathers and a beak
And skinny little legs, then bingo,
That's a whalemingo! (Whalemingo! Whalemingo! Whalemingo!)
I think about you often, whalemingo. (Whalemingo! Whalemingo! Whalemingo!)
And that's my story!
End Credits
If you see a big, pink whale
With feathers and a beak
And skinny little legs, then bingo (Whalemingo!)
I think about you often, whalemingo. (Whalemingo!)
Especially when I've had spicy tacos just before bed. (Whalemingo!)
And your feathers, they tickle me in my dreams. (Whalemingo!)
BMI Work #15704177
Background information
- Second song that Buford sings by himself, the first being "I Want Nothing" in "Wizard of Odd". He is also the only character to be seen in the song, like Isabella Garcia-Shapiro in "Izzy's Got the Frizzies".

Yes, you heard me! A tutorial...finally! These are my favorite baby wipes. My friend gave them to me a few years ago when I was having Charli. I love these because they are super-super soft, and smell great! Oh yeah, and very cost-efficient! Here's what you need:
Durable paper towels
(buy the ones that come in half-sheets)
Air-tight tupperware container
(I found the perfect size at Walmart, it's a Sterilite brand)
2 Cups water
2 Tablespoons baby wash
1 Tablespoon baby oil
Essential oil (optional)
Serrated knife
First, boil your two cups of water and let cool. Add the baby wash, baby oil, and essential oil if you wish. I used a few drops of lavender for added benefits. Stir them together and let cool a little more.
Take your paper towels and cut the roll in half with the serrated knife. Cut it to the desired height to fit into your tupperware.
Core the center of your roll and start it by pulling some of the center out.
Then you will place your roll with the cut side down in your tupperware. Take your liquid mixture and drizzle it over top of your roll. Let it sit for a few minutes, then tip it upside-down for a few minutes. Then, you are finished! You will LOVE the smell of your new wipes! And they are so easy to make and very easy to refill!

New Single - 'When Your Garden's Overgrown'
Following the chart topping success of 'Sonik Kicks' and five sold out shows at the Roundhouse, Weller will return on May 28th with his next single 'When Your Garden's Overgrown'.
The release will be available as a digital EP and is set to be backed by two brand new tracks - 'We Got A Lot' & 'Lay Down Your Weary Burden'
Discussing 'When Your Garden's Overgrown', Paul said: "I think this song's about Syd Barrett. It's like, what would it have been like if he hadn't got into music? If he'd gone off to the continent and just been an artist on the side-street in France. He probably would've been happier.
"There's some lines in there about the brush strokes of fame and I'm thinking of Syd at the time. He was an artist at heart, not a rock star."
The full tracklisting of the EP will be:
1. When Your Garden's Overgrown
2. We Got A Lot
3. Lay Down Your Weary Burden
Stay tuned for pre-order details coming soon.

There should be a physical release for this. It's ridiculous that a news release 6 days later says Weller is supporting Record Store Day with a special release in the US if he can't even release singles on physical media.

Where can you hear Lay Down Your Weary Burden? Is it on YouTube already?
What about We Got A Lot? How does it sound like?
I'm just happy to have downloaded The Piper; it's a wothwhile addition to Sonik Kicks.

The Absolute works with nothing
by Mevlana Jelaluddin RumiEnglish version by Coleman Barks
Original Language Persian/Farsi
The Absolute works with nothing.
The workshop, the materials
are what does not exist.
Try and be a sheet of paper with nothing on it.
Be a spot of ground where nothing is growing,
where something might be planted,
a seed, possibly, from the Absolute.
-- from The Essential Rumi, Translated by Coleman Barks |

This one got me thinking...
We are always making plans, building ourselves up, projecting ourselves into the world. Amidst this constant fulness, Rumi reminds us, we must also have emptiness. If our hands are not empty, they cannot receive. For the ground to be ready to receive a seed, it must first be cleared.
That takes real courage: patient, empty receptivity. To be at ease with blank, still spaces in the soul. To feel our own fecundity hidden beneath all our activity; instead of filling it, waiting, trusting that some new spark will land and glow and grow.

Yeah, we know, it's fun and entertaining and all, but the winning is what takes the cake. So we will tell you how you can raise your chances.
1. The Game
Never place a bet at a game you don't know. Learn its rules, its strategies, its winning possibilities and its traps – simply everything. Most newbies go into the game horrifyingly underprepared and they throw a lot of money away. Don't be that dumb. Play smart and learn your game.
2. The Numbers
Yes – you will have to some math in order to master a game. Every casino game is a accumulation of statistical systems – the chances to win a jackpot, the probabilities of certain bets – practically everything can be calculated. So get out your calculator and start to juggle numbers – it is what will win you your casino games. Sorry to say that, but without a bit of math brain, you will not be able to master any game.
3. The Budget
Do you have a bankroll that counts in the thousands? No? Then do not play like you do. We know, the big bets are tempting, but you do not want to blow your whole budget on one big bet. The small bets are the snack food that will make your budget fat and juicy. Always bet according to your budget and build your bankroll steadily game by game.

The Gilded Age
In a former office building, French decorator Frédéric Méchiche re-creates 18th-century grandeur for a couple who also love contemporary art
By Elle Decor Staff
French Decorator Frédéric Méchiche has been described as Merlin-like for his ability to transform spaces with dramatic flair. Hes put his wizardry to work for such stylish Parisian properties as the Hôtel Le A. For clients with a blue-chip art collection, he recently turned a nondescript office space into a grand, neoclassical apartment straight out of Versailles.
Theres splendor in every room, from marble columns topped with Medici vases in the entrance hall to a luxe bathroom with a door camouflaged by 18th-century trompe loeil grisaille wallpaper panels. In the living room, gilded moldings and ornate chandeliers mix with contemporary art, including Francesco Clementes colorful jigsaw-puzzle pieces, which hang above an antique carved Italian consolea perfect example of Méchiches magical touch for blending old and new. Originally published in ELLE DECORATION France.

Marilyn Monroe supposedly was born with eleven toes, but this is merely urban legend because photos of baby Norma Jeane show that she was a normal baby with five toes in each foot. The myth arose in the book The Birth of Marilyn by Joseph Jasgur. The eleventh toe in Jasgur's photograph was probably just a lump of sand.

Publisher's Description
A snowy night, a warm cabin, and a boy who hears the Christmas story told for the first timebeginning with Creation and ending with the Resurrection
A classic Christmas picture book, One Wintry Night tells the story of a mountain boy who is injured in a snowstorm and seeks refuge in a cabin. While he waits out the storm, the woman who lives there tells him the Christmas story. In a magnificent blend of a contemporary setting with the history of Gods redeeming love, Ruth Graham created a wonderful and unique version of the Christmas story. Breathtakingly illustrated by renowned artist Richard Jesse Watson, One Wintry Night is the perfect gift for the young and the young-at-heart that will fascinate both those who have heard the Bible story many times and those who know only a few details.
Ruth Bell Graham has written the perfect Christmas book . . . with imaginative, stunning pictures. It is a book children and adults will love. The story is tried and true, well-told, and important. I can see children around the world sitting with a parent or grandparent saying, Then what happened? or, Turn the page. Lets see the next picture. I love this story and I love this book. Barbara Bush

What kind of hood venting system do you have for your low ceiling height kitchen? Would appreciate pictures of your kitchen hood if you're in the same low-ceiling height club. My kitchen is 92" or 91" (after the radiant flooring heating goes in). 91-36 base cabinets = 55"
That means my hood can only be ~10-12" tall.
Late for school bus,

600cfms should be plenty unless you grill indoors. |

I was looking at the Kobe CH7730SQB under the cabinet vent hood linked below. Nice sleek look, not as angulated as some. It goes up to 760 cfms with 4.6 sones (measure of noise-fairly low for 760 cfm), and it says it's 10" height (Hood Dimension Under Cabinet CH-77 SERIES 18-Gauge Commercial Grade Stainless Steel - Satin Finish Twin turbine propeller motor- yikes (see specs) Btw: have you checked your city/state code on ventilation? If not, it's good to find out if there are specific requirements on vents and MUA (make up air). Good luck. |

My ceilings are about 91.5". I scored this Rangecraft Viser hood on clearance from the manufacturer. I had to have the duct cover portion (its all one piece) cut down to fit. I don't know that you are necessarily limited to 10-12". Guess I don't understand that. |
Hola, Anyone have pictures of their hood duct work? I may not be fully understanding this ducting business... OR who do I contact to custom fit a custom venting system into my 42" antique copper hood shell? Because of the front curve of the copper hood, a standard hood liner doesn't fit in. I've been talking w/ Mark of Tradewind and he's got his engineers brainstorming. Breezy: Beautiful hood and kitchen!!! My hood vents up and then bangs 90degree to left to go outside the house. thank you very much for your help, |
Here's a mid-construction shot of our hood set up. The hood is 900 CFMs, 36" wide, 22" deep and 10" tall. Our ceilings are 89" and like you we had to vent through a side wall. The height of your hood does not limit its CFM output. CFMs are limited by the size of the hood's motor(s) and the diameter of the duct work. HTH. |
willtv: yes, great helpful picture. More questions? What piece is used to go from your hood to the elbow? Is your hood opening round? What brand hood is that? Do they come in 42"? Buehl: yes, 600cfm is great. thank you, |
An HVAC person or metal fabricator should have ideas about doing the duct transitions -- there's no reason for you to be limited to the stock transition pieces shown above. Is something preventing you from venting straight backward, rather than upward and then backward? Straight back saves a lot of space, and should be an option with a liner ... or you can make your own modification. Finally, there is sometimes room in between ceiling joists that you can use for ducting. |
Amanda, Our hood is a Proline. They are solidly built, perform well and yes, they make them in 42" widths. We've had ours for 2 years and haven't had any problems although, there have been some recent reports of poor customer service. It I had one criticism it would be that the under hood lights could be brighter, but they may have improved that since we got our hood. The duct opening on our hood is a 7" round outlet. Since we didn't have enough space above the cabs, we used a 7" to 6" round transition piece between the hood and the elbow. Unfortunately, this reduces the effective CFM to about 700 but it still works well. Installing the largest duct you can will provide a few advantages. It will allow you to install a higher CFM hood. Even if you don't regularly run the hood at its maximum, it will run more quietly at reduced speed. Also, depending on your style of cooking, a higher CFM hood will better handle the smoke and grease from woking and grilling. Try posting over at the appliance forum. The folks over there are very knowledgeable and helpful. |

30" above the rangetop may be too high for the capture of a 600 CFM or less hood. Some of the range hoods in this category have recommended distances between 24" -27" above cooktop height for adequate capture. |
huango, when you buy the "hood" you will see it has a hole ready to accept the ductwork of the kind you posted above in your images yesterday. PDF documents show it too. The hood manufacturer mentions it. At the hardware store they will explain what you need to do to connect two or three pieces of ductwork together. If you are buying a "blower" motor, the manufacturer will tell you the diameter of the round duct it needs. Some people make their own hood shape, get a filter, a blower motor and a 3-speed control / switch, and they call it done. |
Colin3: - thank you for reminding me about space between ceiling joists. I THOUGHT my joists run in opposite direction, but after closer inspection, they run parallel to the direction of venting out. Yay: so I get another ~7inches!!! YAY! - I will check w/ my HVAC person about customizing the duct transition pieces. But w/ PALIMPSEST's input, I may get another 2 inches, if I drop the hood to countertop height to 27" to increase effectiveness. Willtv: Thank you for the great info on the Proline/your experience. Davidro1: chicken or egg? |
Our ceilings are 90". Here is our math: 90" ceiling height - 37" base - 30" minimum clearance = Here's how it breaks down: 37" for base cabs and counter (34 1/2" cab, 1 1/4" granite + 1 1/8" for the grates (Wolf gas rangetop) = 36 7/8" round up to 37". Wolf says the hood should be mounted 30 to 36" from the cooktop. I was nervous about making it that tight so instead of using all 23" remaining for the hood, I ordered the Modernaire to be 21" high, which puts us at 32" above the grates, well within code in our town. Note that we almost had to lower it today 1 3/4" because the garage on the other side of this wall has a lower ceiling and the opening of the hood is so near the very top of the hood. Advice - figure out how it will vent and where that ductwork needs to go BEFORE you buy a hood. I was very nervous today, but the sheet metal guy built a transition from the hood opening in the back to meet the eventual duct run in the garage. Whew! Minimum clearance req'd is 30". |
- Posted by palimpsest (My Page) on Mon, Sep 24, 12 at 22:47
I had a range hood in a ceiling that was 6'7", but ducted through the joists. They make some pretty shallow units. Read the specs about capture distance for whatever one you choose. |

You will find the Next Gen fun in this Old School game.
Doom was responsible for evolving the genre of first person shooters even though it was not the first FPS game that was created. Doom got the attention of many potential gamers back then with its fun gameplay and awesome level design. The original classic came out in 1993 and now after thirteen years Doom is again made available by Activision for download from the Xbox Live Arcade. And it still doesn't loose its charm.
You are a marine stationed in Phobos, one of the many moons of Mars. Just then, as usual, an experiment goes wrong and the gates to evil hell gets opened pouring in monsters and demons, the kinds you only have nightmares about. The story isn't great but Doom is one of those games which doesn't need one.
The graphics on this Doom is the same as the original classic. No new graphics engine is
used, you still have the same pixilated monsters throwing fireballs at you which brings about those bruises and cuts you get on your face as you burn in the fire of hell. Though the graphics retains the feel of Doom it gets a bit too pixilated when you close up on something. Well at least the frame rates are stable!
The audio is top notch and pretty much the same as the original with MIDI sounds though now you can enjoy it with your surround sound speakers.
The gameplay is as fun as the original though this time you would be smashing on your xbox joystick. The game does not have the typical FPS controls but it wont be long before you get used to it and start kicking some pixilated butts. The weapons are all there, from shotguns, machines guns, BGF and the Chainsaw. They still look and feel the same which is just great and thank God for that!
The multiplayer mode is decent enough. Of course the original Doom didn't have online play
but here you can play two player or four player games. There is also the Death Match mode and the game also has split screen mode too.
Doom remains loyal to the original in every aspect. It still remains, in these times of HDR effects and Havok Engines, an enjoyable experience. If you aren't a FPS fan or never have played an FPS before, then you can start over here, a game that started it all.
The Scorecard | |||||||
Classic gameplay, brings back memories. |
Old school graphics. | ||||
Same audio as of original Doom but with additional surround sound. |
Multiplayer is FUN but it's limited to few players. | ||||
Nothing can beat the original DOOM. |

The bones were shortbread cookies filled with grape jam to look like "bone marrow". They were cut in the shape of bones, filled and dunked in white chocolate. The eyeballs were peanut butter balls, dipped in white chocolate with M&M pupils and squiggly red decorator icing "blood shot" veins. Makayla, my little Monkey Princess, came as Tinkerbell. Bud was the Cowardly Lion. I tried to get him to sing "I am the King of the Forest" but right now his favorite song is Old MacDonald, he likes the part that goes "E I E I DOH". He sounds more like Homer Simpson than a lion, but whatever. When he left he had changed his mind again and was just saying "Meow". Ashley is still a kid, you know, and had to get in on the free candy. Ahem. She was a nurse and her friend Kaitlin was a Playboy Bunny. I thought that was no longer politically correct but what the heck, it's Halloween! Next year maybe I'll wear the nurse costume, LOL. Annie |
Follow-Up Postings:
So so cute! Makayla is after my own heart. I played Tinkerbell in a local production of "Peter Pan". I wasn't nearly as cute as Makayla though...I was a lazer light. |
Verry, verrrry, cute! Va va va boom! That nurse is something else :) |

Great costumes, Tinkerbell and the Lion look adorable! Ashley looks great! You're never too old for free candy! |
Carol, I agree, you're never too old for free candy, LOL. Ashley says she HAS to be a nurse because all those guys are just sick. (grin) Annie |

Oh Annie they all look like they're enjoying themselves! Bud is sure getting big....I bet he loved being a lion! Ashley grows more beautiful every day....if that's possible and little Makayla is a real sweetie. SharonCb |
Oh, Makayla and Bud are so big! When did that happen?! So cute, too! I like that Bud decided the lion would say "meow." He and I could hang. |
Amanda, you can hang with bud any time, he's much more of a "Meow" kind of lion than he is a "Grrrr" kind of a lion. :-) I still say he needs a bow. "But I could show my prowess, Yup, that's my Bud, the lion that says "meow". (grin) Annie |
Too cute! And Bud is TOTALLY a shoo-in for the Cowardly Lion. Harrrrrumph! |
Little cuties all. |

I think I'm convinced that overhead shots, although easier to capture the entire pie in focus, is to be avoided. Thoughts?
If you want quality photographs you generally need some method of diffusing the light source to soften shadows and then reflecting that light off of a silver or white surface to fill the shadows. Goggle photographic lighting and you will find a number of sites with tutorials ranging from DIY amateur to serious professional.Photography's response to light is quite different from your eyes. It increases contrast and typically cannot render a wide range of brightness so shadows will be darker than you expect them to be.Michael
I came across this link. Is it me or do these photos look like a hundred times better than any of ours?http://www.asc.upenn.edu/usr/cassidy/projects/cooking/Lately I've been lamenting how terrible my photos look. They just don't do the food justice.Jeff
The background is supposed to be pure white. Is it on your monitors?

open-hearth process
open-hearth process
Steelmaking technique that for most of the 20th century accounted for most steel made in the world. William Siemens made steel from pig iron in a reverberatory furnace of his design in 1867. The same year the French manufacturer Pierre-Émile Martin (1824–1915) used the idea to produce steel by melting wrought iron with steel scrap. Siemens used the waste heat given off by the furnace: he directed the fumes from the furnace through a brick checkerwork, heating it to a high temperature, and then used the same path to introduce air into the furnace; the preheated air significantly increased the flame temperature. The open-hearth process furnace (which replaced the Bessemer process) has itself been replaced in most industrialized countries by the basic oxygen process and the electric furnace. See also reverberatory furnace.

Come to Cal Golf Camp in the East Bay for a week of top-notch golf instruction and fun this summer. Campers have the privilege of learning from Camp Director and Cal Women's Head Coach, Nancy McDaniel, and Assistant Coach, Sofie Aagaard. This program offers a day camp program this year to accommodate a wide range of junior golfers.
We are excited to have our first California Beginner Golf Camp! This will take place on the Cal Scoring Zone at the Metropolitan Golf Links. Snag Golf equipment will be used for those just starting the game and others may bring their own golf clubs. We will flight the kids according to experience and everyone will be learning and challenged at their pace. A "short course" will be part of the everyday experience as well as games and activities to promote passion for golf and even learn some of the rules and etiquette! Our all-star cast of collegiate players and coaches will be your guides throughout the week. This program is for kids ages 5 - 12 and runs from 8:30am - Noon each day.
Nike Golf Camp hosted by the Cal coaching staff offers a day camp from 8:45am - 4:00pm. The program includes two-three hours of range instruction in the morning followed by lunch and 9-18 holes of golf in the afternoon. Golf activities take place at Metropolitan Golf Links in Oakland. This program is open to golfers ages 10 - 17.
During Cal's rise to the upper echelon of the collegiate women's golf landscape, McDaniel has led the Golden Bears to compete at seven NCAA Championships, highlighted by three top five showings from 2004-06, capped by 2004's program-best finish of fourth at the NCAA Championships. That year, Sarah Huarte won Cal's first NCAA individual title. Duke was the only other school during that span to register three straight top five national finishes. After the 2005-06 season, McDaniel was selected the LPGA Teaching Division Western Section Coach of the Year. Following four top five 2007 fall finishes, McDaniel was recognized as Golf World's Midseason Coach of the Year.
McDaniel's coaching expertise and energy extends to junior golfers as a board member of the First Tee of Oakland as well as the First Tee Youth Golf Skills Committee. She is also the co-founder of Collegiate Golf Academy.
One of the most successful players ever to compete at Washington, McDaniel was team captain as a senior in 1988 and earned one All-America and two Pac-10 All-Star team selections. During her career, she won individual titles at the 1987 Washington and BYU tournaments and finished in the top-10 at seven additional events. She was named to Washington's Pac-10 All-Decade team (1986-96) for women's golf and received her bachelor's degree in speech communications in 1988.
McDaniel came to Cal with five years of professional experience on the Women's European, Ladies Asian and Players West golf tours. One of the top players on the Ladies Asian Tour, she finished 13th on the Order of Merit in 1993 and ranked 20th during her final season in 1994. Prior to that, McDaniel won the Players West title at the 1992 Las Vegas Classic and won the LPGA sectional qualifier in Mission Hills later that year. She has been a Class A member of the LPGA Teaching Division for 18 years.
Sofie is currently the assistant women's golf coach for the Cal Golf program. The 2006 Cal graduate was the first three-time All-American in program history. Originally from Sweden, Aagaard began her college career as a freshman at Mississippi State University, earning SEC All-Conference Honors before transferring to Cal in 2003. While at Cal, she was a three- time All-American and a member of the team finishing in the top 5 at the NCAA Championships three years in a row (2004-2006). Aagaard finished her career with a school-record 74.2 average for the Bears.
In the tradition of the great links courses, The Metropolitan Golf Links is wide open. There's even some heather and clusters of native grasses to add to the ambiance. But the fairways are mostly open and the greens are large and receptive so that even the high-handicapper can get around expeditiously. Miller and Bliss have designed the course so that the low-handicapper will have to think his or her way around the course to score well. The Metropolitan Golf Links is strong enough from the back tees to serve the needs of the Cal Bears Golf Program.
"The Jackson girls had a great time, both with the other golfers and with the instruction. They feel they learned a lot and are excited to get out and practice/play. They are already talking about next year's camp!"
"Coach McDaniel, Coach Sofie, and Coach Jackie were an inspiration to me and it was an honor to have the opportunity to train with them."
"My son expressed how much he loved the camp and the instructors and wanted to participate again! This was his first golf camp and he was excited to go every morning. He did express how he was going to miss the camp, the kids, and especially the staff! It was a great experience for all! Keep up the great work and looking forward to more Cal Golf camps!"
"Cal Golf Camp was my favorite camp all summer. Working with the Cal coaches was so much fun and I can't wait to show them how much I've improved next summer!"

Brands share insight on key styles and hot items for spring '15 from The Atlanta Shoe Market, which took place Saturday, Aug. 23, through Monday, Aug. 25.
Nolan Davis, owner of Outdoor Sports Marketing representing Smart Wool socks & Chaco:
"We really have had a strong turnout from Florida to Mississippi. For Chaco, it's been the GXI [sandal], which we have in 17 colors. [During the show], we've really seen the most growth in kids'. Men's is flat and women's is up significantly, but kids' is doing really great."
Chris McGerigle, Northeast sales representative:
"Trendwise, the resurgence of the white shoe and heritage tennis styles, which K-Swiss is really known for, is really helpful. With the new shield, new marketing and product, we're doing really well. We've seen a lot of old accounts want to restart with us, and plenty of existing accounts looking to grow their offering."
Johnston & Murphy
Mark Williams, sales representative:
"Wingtips are still our hottest style and retail at $165, so we can find that price-conscious spot, and we have styles at $275 and up that people are looking at. There is some pessimism out there, but maybe not as much as I anticipated. Socks are still as strong as they were. We sell out each season. We have definitely had some new prospects this time around. Most of this show is independents [for me], but they do have multiple stores."

What a Wonderful World
Louis Armstrong was born today August 4th, 1901 and passed on July 6th, 1971.
His music is timeless and I had such fun putting together a selection of his songs and collaborations with other artists. Take some time to sit back on this beautiful Sunday and enjoy the sounds of Louis Armstrong.
Happy Birthday, Louis!
