Said Karimzad '10 – From Acorns to Apple
It's not easy getting a job at Apple, Inc. but Said had two offers shortly after graduation. His ability to speak English, French and German plus his internship at Merrill Lynch made him a great fit for the position of Worldwide Developer Relations. At Apple he works to build business relations with developers in France and Germany often using skills and experiences he had while at Menlo College from his classes, a Resident Assistant position, and internship.
Leadership and Menlo Involvement
As a junior and senior, Said took a leadership role on campus as a Resident Assistant. An international student, he helped other international students make the transition from their home country to student life in the U.S. He also created programs to help all students find common ground and build community. A team leader on the soccer field, Said was a successful student-athlete.
From the Classroom to the Job
Completing an internship is an important step in launching a career and Said took advantage of the networking opportunities on campus to secure his first internship. "I went to the speed networking event to see what would happen," Said says. "The first seat I picked was with Menlo Alum Eric Sponburg '99, Senior Financial Advisor at Merrill Lynch." In Speed Networking students just have a few minutes to give their elevator pitch, so Said followed up with Eric at the end of the event. Being impressed that Said showed persistence, an interview was booked.
But Said didn't leave anything to chance – preparation was key. Said spent many hours with Mary Robins, Director of Career Services to perfect his resume and interview skills. The time paid off and Said was offered the internship where he worked with a professional team of three Senior Financial Advisors, that managed client's portfolios worth +$130 Million in assets.
Small School, Big Opportunities
Because Menlo College is a small community our students stay connected long after graduation. Alumni frequently return to campus for networking events to help our students make the connections needed to move from the classroom into the workplace.
Some career path you choose to take might include Global/International Studies, Business Studies, Management.
As an international management student you still need to consider which department you will apply for jobs. You may also want to explore career paths in Accounting, Finance, Marketing, MIS and Human Resources.

Why we can't wait to see ''The Producers''
RELEASE DATE Dec. 16, limited; Jan. 13, wide
WHY WE CAN'T WAIT Pretty much the whole gang behind the Tony-grabbing Broadway smash is back for the big-screen version, including the hilarious, electric pairing of Nathan Lane (center) and Matthew Broderick (left).
THE PREMISE Lane and Broderick cook up a scheme to cadge a fortune by getting investors to back a surefire Broadway flop. Unfortunately, their show Springtime for Hitler becomes a campy hit.
SOURCE Mel Brooks' 2001 Broadway musical, based in turn on his 1968 film with Zero Mostel and Gene Wilder
THE BACK STORY Despite the death of his wife, Anne Bancroft, in June, Brooks remained a gag-generating machine on the set. ''Many times I'd say, 'Mel, we need one more joke here,''' says director Susan Stroman. ''Takes him about 30 seconds: out of his mouth and into the movie.''
BURNING QUESTION Can lightning strike twice? (Or is it three times?)
COME FOR Bialystock and Bloom er, Lane and Broderick
STAY FOR Scene-swiping supporting actors Will Ferrell (right), as the pigeon-loving playwright, and Uma Thurman, as B&B's bombshell Scandinavian secretary

The Everyday range of fold down and folding frame clothes lines from Hills are the budget models that still offer great line space and are fully backed by the Hills quality guarantee.
The Hills Everyday Single clothes line has a single frame and offers up a generous 21m of line space with wide line spacing for fast laundry drying.
Mounting to either a wall or free standing(with use of optional ground mount kit) means you can use this line anywhere you would like in your backyard.
The Everyday Single has,
Hills also make some accessory items that you maybe insterested in and these include a laundry trolley and ironing boards, plus a selection of garden beds.
Yes, this is very easy to do, just trim down the front bar before assembly to reduce the width. You will find more information about this in the instruction manual.
Yes you can but you will just need to make sure the mounting brackets align with the structural supports in the wall. If not you may be able to customise the width of the clothesline(see above) to suit the supports. Another solution would be to purchase a Ground Mount Kit(if available) with the clothesline and install it freestanding in front of the wall.
Yes, this is very similar to mounting on a non-brick wall, the mounting brackets would need to align with the fence posts and they would have to be nice and solid. You will also need to check council regulations in your area to see if this is allowed. A freestanding Ground Mount Kit is an alternative once again.
A general rule of thumb is to install the top bolt of the fixing bracket at approx. 50mm above the users head height. An average height is approx. 1800mm but you can adjust this to suit your requirements.

[Somehow, the conversation turns to Ryan Adams.]
Everyone tells me Ryan Adams is a dick.
He blocked me on Twitter. And that broke my heart -- my heart is broken.
What did you do to deserve that?
What did I do? Nothing.... Okay, so I did this podcast, These Things Matter with Kevin O'Brien and Taylor Gonda, and we did it all on Ryan Adams. Afterward I posted it onto his page, and he favorited it. And I was like, oh, my God. So then everything was fine, and then a while later he tweeted something about how Taylor Swift's new album was the most brilliant thing he'd heard in a while. And I replied back, "Hahahahaha! This is the best joke I've ever heard."...And then he blocked me.
I guess he wasn't being sarcastic about Taylor Swift.
But why would I think that someone of Ryan Adam's caliber would actually think that Taylor-fucking-Swift's music was brilliant?
Well, speaking of powerful women, here's a hypothetical for you: There's a female, third-party candidate running for president. Her platform includes legalizing gay marriage, federally decriminalizing marijuana, single-payer health care for all citizens, tax hikes on the rich, publicly funded charter schools, defense cuts and a free cockatiel for every family. She's way ahead in the polls, and it's looking like she's going to win. But two weeks before the election, the New York Post runs an expose revealing the candidate regularly engages in the eighteenth-century French social custom of cat-burning, wherein a bag of kittens are tossed into a pyre for a crowd's amusement. The candidate does not deny this. In fact, she intends to make the event a regular staple of Barbara Walters's annual Christmas at the White House special. Do you still vote for this candidate?
Is this a religious ritual?
Kind of. It's similar to witch burnings. Cats were associated with witches at the time. It was thought to bring good luck on the town, but after a while it just became a regular family affair, with children laughing and clapping. It would have been our equivalent to going to see fireworks.
Well...no, I wouldn't vote for her.
But gay people could get married, everyone could have health-care coverage?
And we'd have to burn cats once a year?
Yes, but only, like, twelve of them.
Twelve cats a year, and then we get a utopian society. Hmmm....Guess I'd have to go along with it, for the greater good. I wouldn't like it, but there's a lot of stuff on TV I don't like, and I just don't watch it.
Eventually it would become part of America's identity in the eyes of the world, more than cowboys or Snuggies.
More than McDonald's?
Yup. More than Walmart or Taylor Swift.
No, then, I wouldn't.... What would the gay people do?
They're pretty collectivist, so I bet they would do it, for the greater good. Let's just say she's got the gay vote. She's very well dressed, very sassy in interviews. They love her.
Well...I just can't go for cat-burning.
But you would date Jesus?
Damn right. Bring it on, Lord and Savior.

Moreover, in the regard of our spacious hall of 120 seats and the fascinating selection of function menu, we are brilliant for functions and we can stand comparison with other Korean restaurants in Sydney.
Our well trained waiting staff and remarkable kitchen staff, providing exceptional taste of food will give you a memorable time of dining at our restaurant THE BULGOGI.
"Bulgogi" is known as one of the most famous Korean dishes. Bulgogi is made from thin slices of prime cuts of beef. The meat is marinated with a mixture of soy sauce, sugar, sesame oil, garlic and other ingredients for the enhancement of its flavour and tenderness. It is then grilled or pan-cooked to be served, sometimes with a side of lettuce or other leafy vegetable. Its history starts as ancient as from the Koryo Period (918~1392) when the meat culture was called "Mac-joek". The taste of Bulgogi has developed throughout the history with every region's culture which has now led to a creation of various Bulgogi in the present time.
Bulgogi, however, contains another meaning that is not as widely known as it is recognized as a beef dish; its literal meaning contains the meaning of "fire" (bul) and "meat"(gogi), therefore referring to the meaning of "cooking the meat on fire", the barbeque.
During the 20th century, Korean barbeque became widespread in Japan, most notably after the Second World War, and created the famous Japanese style of Yakiniku, a Japanese term referring to grilled meat dishes. Today, due to its Korean origins, Yakiniku is referred to as either "Japanese barbeque" or "Korean barbeque
Bibimbap describes a type of mixed rice dish topped with Korean style vegetables (called namul), lean meat and other food items. There are several types of Bibimbap, including Dolsot Bibimbap or Hwedopbap, but in its most basic form, the regular Bibimbap includes sliced vegetables, lean meat and hot pepper paste spread on a bed of short grain rice, served in a stone pot, shallow bowl with an egg on top.
The beauty of Bibimbap is in the perfect harmony between various tastes and nutrition that results from mixing various ingredients into one bowl. Mixing ingredients together is the secret to eating a nutritious meal. Although it is a high caloric diet food, the portions are enormous, meaning you stay full longer. Bibimbap never uses any artificial ingredient, and it contains all the five major food groups; By eating one bowl of Bibimbap, you can take in carbohydrate (rice), protein (beef and egg), vitamins and minerals (various vegetables), and of course fat (Sesame oil). In addition, most of the fat in Bibimbap is vegetable fat.
Cook the meat on high heat: To enjoy the tender and juicy beef, it is the best to cook the meat quickly on high heat so that the outer part of the meat properly cooks. When the surface is just seared, the juice inside does not come out thus making meat as tender and juicy as possible.
Do not flip over the meat too often: If the meat is turned over too many times, the juice gets burned and makes the meat tough.
Do not overcook: As mentioned above, beef is in its juiciest and the tenderest state if it is not fully cooked (however, the surface of the meat must be seared). It can turn out to be tough when it is overcooked.
The word "charcoal" is supposedly originated from a story that has been passed on from a long time ago that a Westerner, who took charcoal as medicine, as it was commonly taken as medicine in China, got cured from disease. Therefore "charcoal" is a compound word that is formed from the words "China" and "Cool", and in pure Korean word, Soot (숯), it also contains a similar meaning of "fresh" and "powerful".
Also as a scientific fact, charcoal is helpful to the entire living creature as it purifies the air with its abundant clean and fresh air supply, provided from an anion that is created. Charcoal also clears away the carbonation and the smell produced when cooking the meat, so it is commonly used for having a barbeque.
Besides these uses of charcoal for the purpose of removing the smell and cooking the meat, it is widely used in various fields of our living as it is beneficial in many ways. The general reason why it is preferred to use charcoal for barbeque is because it emits far-infrared radiation which comprises mostly the particular section of the light that prevents the meat from burning as much as it can (when compared to cooking the meat with normal fire), while cooking both the surface and the inside of the meat evenly.
Kimchi is a traditional Korean fermented dish made of vegetables with varied seasonings. Kimchi has later diversified to include unfermented varieties and various imported seasonings and vegetables previously not available in Korea. There are hundreds of varieties of kimchi, made with a main vegetable ingredient such as napa cabbage, radish, green onion or cucumber. Kimchi is the most common side dish in Korean cuisine.
Kimchi is made of various vegetables and contains a high concentration of dietary fiber, while being low in calories. One serving also provides up to 80% of the daily recommended amount of vitamin C and carotene. Most types of kimchi contain onions, garlic, and peppers, all of which are salutary. The vegetables being made into kimchi also contribute to the overall nutritional value. Kimchi is rich in vitamin A, thiamine (B1), riboflavin (B2), calcium, and iron, and contains a number of lactic acid bacteria, among those the typical species Lactobacillus kimchi. The magazine Health named kimchi in its list of top five "World's Healthiest Foods" for being rich in vitamins, aiding digestion, and even possibly reducing cancer growth.

Doenjang can be eaten as a condiment in raw paste-form with vegetables, similar to the way some people dip celery into cheese. However, it is more commonly mixed with garlic, sesame oil, and sometimes gochujang to produce ssamjang which is then traditionally eaten with or without rice wrapped in leaf vegetables such as Napa cabbage.

ACS is always looking for ways to help its members stay connected. For this reason, Programs in Sustainability and the Environment has created an open Facebook group wherein faculty, staff and former ACS Fellows can share their accomplishments, read environmental news of other campuses and the world, and network with like-minded ACS colleagues. Currently, 39 ACS faculty and staff are members. The group can be viewed by anyone with a Facebook account at https://www.facebook.com/groups/ACSEnviro/, or contact email@example.com.
In fall 2008, The Andrew W. Mellon Foundation board awarded ACS $3.5 million, which would support 25 Post-doctoral Fellows in environmental studies at ACS campuses between 2009 and 2013. This unique effort is the only Andrew W. Mellon Fellowship program to date devoted exclusively to one interdisciplinary academic field. In four years, Environmental Fellows not only taught over 100 courses for the consortium (including upper and lower level, new and established courses), they also created co-curricular projects, collaborated in undergraduate research, sponsored Earth Day and Earth Week activities, gave presentations, assisted with departmental issues, and much more. Consortium students, faculty and staff benefited enormously from Fellows' energy, passion, and expertise. ACS remains extremely grateful for this opportunity to help our institutions create more muscular environmental studies curricula, generate increased enthusiasm in our students and renewed energy in our established faculty, and pave the way for new programs in sustainability and the environment. Below are details about the postdoctoral Fellows who populated the two flights.
Birmingham-Southern College hosted a Fellow in 2011-2013. Sarah Frohardt-Lane's field is race and environmental history in the United States. She earned the PhD in 2011 at the University of Illinois (Urbana-Champaign).
Centenary College of Louisiana hosted one Fellow in 2009-2011. John Davenport studied cultural geography at the University of Kentucky (PhD 2008).
Centre College hosted Fellow Cynthia Isenhour in 2011-2013. Another University of Kentucky PhD (2010), Isenhour studied comparative environmental governance and policy, with a specialization in sustainable consumption programs and policy. Centre's 2009-2011 Fellow was Brett Werner, whose field is rhetoric and scientific & technical communication. Werner received the PhD in 2009 from University of Minnesota (Twin Cities).
Davidson College's 2011-2013 Fellow was Abigail Schade, a 2011 Columbia University PhD in global environmental history, with an interest in groundwater. The College's 2009-2011 Fellow was Julianne Mills (PhD 2009), who studied evolution, ecology, and organismal biology at Ohio State University.
Furman University hosted Fellow Carmel Price in 2011-2013. She is a 2011 PhD from the University of Tennessee at Knoxville in the field of sociology, with a focus on environmental values. In 2009-2011, FU hosted Amélie Davis, a 2009 PhD from Purdue University (West Lafayette), where she focused on forestry and natural resources.
Hendrix College's 2011-2013 Fellow was Amanda Hagood, a 2010 Vanderbilt University PhD in English, who specializes in American environmentalism and postwar culture. The College hosted Jacques Pollini in 2009-2011, a 2007 PhD from Cornell University, with a specialization in natural resources policies and management.
Millsaps College hosted Drew Swanson in 2011-2013. Swanson is a 2010 University of Georgia PhD in environmental history with a focus on southern agriculture. Millsaps' 2009-2011 Fellow was Jessica Piekielek, who attained the PhD in 2009 from the University of Arizona, where she studied cultural anthropology.

Rollins College hosted James Klepek in 2011-2013. James is a 2011 PhD, our second PhD from the University of Arizona. His field is environmental politics, with a focus on social movements in Latin America. In 2009-2011, Rollins hosted Valerie Peters, a second University of Georgia PhD (2009). Her specialty is tropical ecology.
Sewanee: University of the South's 2011-2013 Fellow was Devan McGranahan, whose 2011 PhD at Iowa State University concentrated on sustainable agriculture. Sewanee's 2009-2011 Fellow was Daniel C. Carter, another University of Tennessee PhD (2008). Carter studied political science.
Southwestern University was able to host three Fellows because the first Fellow left after only one year to take a full time position. SU's 2011-2013 Fellow was Brandon Canfield, a 2006 Arizona State University PhD in environmental chemistry. From 2010-2011, Daniel Thornton served as Fellow. His 2010 PhD in wildlife ecology and conservation was earned at the University of Florida (Gainesville). From 2009-2010, Jinelle Hutchins-Sperry was SU's Fellow. Another University of Illinois PhD (2008), her field is ecology, evolution and conservation biology.

His focus is ocean bio-optical modeling and bio-geo-chemistry and the role of land and ocean ecosystems in climate formation.
Washington and Lee also hosted one Fellow, Laura Henry-Stone, from 2009-2011. Her 2009 PhD sustainability education is from the University of Alaska-Fairbanks.
The ACS Environmental Initiative (ACSEI), which ran from 1998 to 2008, encompassed environmental sustainability not only in academics, but in campus operations, campus-community partnerships, student development, and more. The highly successful ten-year program changed ACS campuses for the better. Most ACS institutions have made significant physical and cultural changes to emphasize "green" thinking, and because these changes affect not only individuals at each campus but also an entire region of the country, we believe the overall impact of the ACSEI has been much greater than the sum of its parts.
Clearly, ACSEI influenced the ACS presidents who signed the American College and University Presidents Climate Commitment (www.presidentsclimatecommitment.org). Those ACS faculty and staff now working to carry out Commitment requirements for their institutions are the very same faculty and staff who attended ACSEI conferences and workshops over the years, and who played key roles in ACSEI alliance and grant activities. Because of their deep commitment, the ACS Environmental Initiative had a profound impact on the lives of students, faculty and staff in our institutions, transforming them into effective environmental citizens. Since 1998, ACS estimates that over 7000 ACS faculty, students, and staff, and several hundred members of the surrounding communities, were affected by the many projects and activities ACSEI sponsored or supported. Between 2001 and 2008, ACSEI supported 131 Faculty Fellows, 16 Facilities Fellows, 269 Student Interns, and 180 alliance members; awarded 232 grants to 294 recipients for a total of $456,768. For more information about ACSEI alliance grants, please see Successful Alliance Proposals.
Moreover, during that time, ACS Environmental Programs hosted or helped support 42 workshops, conferences and symposia addressing various aspects of environmental citizenship. At little or no cost to the individual or to the campuses, these workshops gave over 1000 ACS faculty, students and staff an opportunity to learn about, be engaged in, and be motivated by their peers' environmental courses and research, by co-curricular environmental programs, and by the many environmental partnerships and projects that were created, implemented, and strengthened due to ACS alliance grants. For more information about ACSEI activities, please see Archived ACSEI Reports.

Man Pleads Not Guilty In Killing Charges
MARSHALLTOWN (AP) -- A Marshalltown man charged in connection with the killing of a Tama County man has pleaded not guilty.
The Marshalltown Times-Republican reports 55-year-old Max E. Nelson pleaded not guilty Tuesday to all charges related to the killing of David Warnell, of Garwin.
Nelson faces charges of accessory after the fact, abuse of a corpse and first-degree theft.
Authorities have charged 30-year-old Jeremy A. Gartin with first-degree murder in the killing of Warnell, who was found dead in a Marshalltown house Oct. 1. He had been shot in the head.
Police previously accused Nelson of stealing Warnell's car, but investigators have said little else about the case.
Nelson remains jailed with his bond set at $10,000.

The U.S. Department of Justice announced a $4 billion settlement between the federal government and BP Exploration and Production, Inc. concerning the 2010 Deepwater Horizon disaster. The Department of Justice also announced a second legal settlement where Transocean Deepwater Inc., the operator of the drilling platform, has agreed to pay $1.4 billion in civil and criminal fines to the federal government. As part of the settlement, NAS has been asked by the department to establish a new $350 million, 30-year program on human health and environmental protection in the Gulf of Mexico. The program will be conducted in partnership with the NAE, IOM, and NRC.
The Transocean and BP agreements both recognize that the Gulf program will be conducted solely at our direction, based on scientific merit and integrity with emphasis on freedom of inquiry and independent, nonpartisan advice and recommendations. This collection is comprised of titles that address issues and provide recommendations surrounding the Deepwater Horizon disaster.
Since the early 1970s, experts have recognized that petroleum pollutants were being discharged in marine waters worldwide, from oil spills, vessel operations, and land-based sources. Public attention to oil spills has forced improvements. Still, a considerable amount of oil is discharged yearly into sensitive coastal environments. Oil in the Sea provides the best available estimate of oil pollutant discharge into marine waters, including an evaluation of the methods for assessing ...[more]
As the Gulf of Mexico recovers from the Deepwater Horizon oil spill, natural resource managers face the challenge of understanding the impacts of the spill and setting priorities for restoration work. The full value of losses resulting from the spill cannot be captured, however, without consideration of changes in ecosystem services--the benefits delivered to society through natural processes. An Ecosystem Services Approach to Assessing the Impacts of the Deepwater ...[more]
The blowout of the Macondo well on April 20, 2010, led to enormous consequences for the individuals involved in the drilling operations, and for their families. Eleven workers on the Deepwater Horizon drilling rig lost their lives and 16 others were seriously injured. There were also enormous consequences for the companies involved in the drilling operations, to the Gulf of Mexico environment, and to the economy of the region and ...[more]
On April 20, 2010, the Deepwater Horizon platform drilling the Macondo well in Mississippi Canyon Block 252 (DWH) exploded, killing 11 workers and injuring another 17. The DWH oil spill resulted in nearly 5 million barrels (approximately 200 million gallons) of crude oil spilling into the Gulf of Mexico (GoM). The full impacts of the spill on the GoM and the people who live and work there are unknown but ...[more]
From the origin of the leak, to the amount of oil released into the environment, to the spill's duration, the 2010 Gulf of Mexico oil spill poses unique challenges to human health. The risks associated with extensive, prolonged use of dispersants, with oil fumes, and with particulate matter from controlled burns are also uncertain. There have been concerns about the extent to which hazards, such as physical and chemical ...[more]

It is as yet uncertain how the Gulf of Mexico oil spill will affect the health of clean-up workers and volunteers, residents, and visitors in the Gulf.

Although significant steps have been taken over the last 15 years to reduce the size and frequency of oil spills, the sheer volume of petroleum consumed in the United States and the complex production and distribution network required to meet the demand make spills of oil and other petroleum products inevitable.

Netiquette can be described as the convention or standard for communicating online. This will include communication on the Internet (blogging, chat forums etc.) email, or work collaboration. It could also be very applicable for off line networking.

Not too impressed with this concealer - I find it quite thin and greasy, and it doesn't cover blemishes nearly as well as I'd like. It makes my face quite oily as the day wears on, even when set with powder. For the price I think there are far better concealers available, I'll be using this until it runs out and won't be repurchasing.

One of the best concealers I've had so far. It stays on relatively well, it may require some touching up later on in the day, but I think most concealers require that. But it covers any spots really well. My skin is very light, so I was happy to find such a good colour match as well. Happy with this product, and will purchase it again!

Corley on 11/28/2011 12:24:00 PM more reviews by Corley
Age: 25-29 Skin: Acne-prone, Fair-Medium Hair: Brown Eyes: Green
I have used this concealer for about six or seven years now and have never been tempted to stray. Orginially, I bought it with a concealer brush but quickly got annoyed with that and have since applied with a finger (just make sure to wash your hands first). This concealer has a great formula that is perfect for acne-prone skin like mine. It doesn't require extensive application - just dot on and *TAP* to set. Very little blending required. I use this in conjunction with Bare Minerals when I'm putting on a full face of makeup to go out, but during the day or if I'm just running errands, I tap it onto a bare face and it makes blemishes and marks fade away. Also, this concealer LASTS. I can use a tube daily and not have to repurchase for many months - so while it's expensive for a concealer, I consider it a good value. My only complaint with this product is that it does need to be reapplied periodically - but that's not such a big deal. (I should also mention that I have very oily skin, so that's possibly the culprit and not the concealer itself.) The tube is very purse-friendly (super small, and I've never had the cap slip off) and, again, it takes mere seconds to apply or reapply.

Age: 19-24 Skin: Acne-prone, Olive, Warm Hair: Brunette, Straight, Fine Eyes: Brown
I really enjoy this concealer. I use it for my blemishes, not my under eyes. I've been using it consistently for about two years now and it hasn't broken me out. It covers really nicely and has a pretty good lasting power. My skin is combination, but more on the dry side and it's very blendable and creamy. If you have oily skin maybe this wouldn't be the best. They have a lot of shades, too. The only downfall is the price is a bit expensive for the product retailing at $22. Although this concealer does last me about 6 months so I guess it isn't too shabby. I will continue to buy it for as long as it's in stock!

I use it in sand (2). So far it is the best blemish concealer with the most coverage I have found. Always looking for more natural and less expensive versions, but will continue using this with good results until then.

This product didn't work very well. It initially camouflages. It doesn't really conceal. But, it doesn't last. Within an hour or so, it is as if it disappears. The formula goes on fine though.

Expensive and made me break out on places when I applied blemish. Also, it doesn't have a long stay power and wipes off easily when applied.

Mark Richard (Z) Glover |
Posted 2013-08-02 by Sharla |
The White Mountain Independent, Show Low, Arizona ~ 08/02/2013 Mark Richard "Z" Glover, 59, of Las Cruces, N.M., formerly of Beaver Falls, passed away in his sleep Sunday, July 28, at home. He was born Nov. 27, 1952, in Beaver Falls, graduating from Beaver Falls High School in 1970. Mark lived a wandering life, living in various parts of the Southwest for most of his adult life. He had colorful stories of his years working at the Grand Canyon, specifically at Phantom Ranch, and of being a "chicken-slinger" in Albuquerque. Mark was a deeply kind and generous soul with friends in all of the various places he traveled. At heart, Mark was a caregiver and all that knew him understood and appreciated his kindness to so many. He was preceded in death by his father Olson W. Glover, mother Wilda O. Glover and brother Olson "Skip" Glover. Mark is survived by his sister Judy Sabella (Joe) of New Brighton; son Stephen; brothers: Robert Glover of Seattle, Wash., Byron Glover (Bobbi) of Tempe and their son Samuel; nephew Matthew Glover and his daughter Sophia Glover of Austin, Texas. A memorial celebration of Mark's life will be held in late August, with his ashes returned to the Grand Canyon. |

Munchkin Meals
I don't usually post too much about food, but my friend Brittany over at A Healthy Slice of Life asked me to link up with her and do a post about what Caden eats.
So … here we go!
Spinach and cheese scrambled eggs, blueberries, raspberries, and oranges. (Not pictured, he also had a little bit of my breakfast smoothie and a couple pieces of bananas).
Spaghetti with Italian Meatballs (leftover from dinner last night) and cucumbers.
Veggie Burger, broccoli with cheese and watermelon.
Now that I shared what CK ate yesterday; go and check out what some other munchkins are eating over at A Healthy Slice of Life! It's a great way to get some ideas for your little ones!

Spinach and cheese w/ eggs is pretty much a part of CJ's breakfast every day. He loves it!
Scrambled eggs are awesome … you can hide so much stuff in them
Thanks for sharing! I might have to try a veggie burger with E. I think he'd like it and it would be a way for me to sneak in some more nutrition.

Where to begin? Where to begin? In today's Toronto Sun, columnist Steve Simmons goes off on Major League Baseball and its supposedly ridiculous policy of not showing replays of close calls in the stadium immediately after they occur.
This is just another example of staid old baseball being behind the times. Instead of giving the fans what they want and what is readily available, they instead deny the paying customer information.
Yep. This is coming from someone who works in the newspaper industry.
Despite Simmons' straw man suggestions, "staid old baseball" isn't behind the times. In fact, earlier this year, it was the digital arm of the league that rejected a billion dollars in offers from private equity firms.
Launched in 2000, MLB.com was funded by the clubs in an agreement that had them each investing $1 million a year over four years. The cost was targeted at $120 million. To the joy of the owners and MLB, the site started generating excess revenue in only the second year of its existence, allowing them to invest only $70-$75 million before beginning to see a return on their investment.
Major League Baseball's Adavanced Media, which controls properties like MLB.com and MLB.tv, is earning owners more than $500 million in revenue on an annual basis. It was way ahead of other leagues in exercising control over its highlights online and embedding journalists with the clubs to create its own mini media conglomerate.
Baseball isn't in any trouble with the younger generation. It's speaking their language and making money even as other leagues were suffering from the economic downturn, something that Simmons and his own industry might relate to.
If the Toronto Sun writer attended a baseball game at Rogers Centre, and the most offensive part of the in game presentation wasn't the soul crushing atmosphere created by the Addams Family theme song, forced clapping and songs that haven't even been popular ironically in twenty years, I'd assume that he had the idea to write this article long before he actually sat in section 127 on Tuesday night.
For all of his proselytizing, Simmons does come close to grazing an actual good point. He mentions John Farrell coming out of the dugout to argue one of the close calls, and compares it to what MLB is trying to stop by not showing controversial replays in its stadiums.
For the record, managers are allowed to show up umpires and incite the crowd.
Paragraphs later, Simmons brings up the inevitable hockey comparison.
Even in the overly sensitive National Hockey League, there is some leeway for the paying customer. Footage from disputed goals that are reviewed by off-ice officials may be replayed in the arena, with the stipulation being it can only be shown once — prior to the call being official and once after the call is official.
Therein lies the stuff of an actual interesting article: why baseball continues to refuse to allow the implementation of more video replay for disputed calls. The argument against video replay has always been that it ruins the flow of the game or would take up too much time. But what MLB has consistently refused to acknowledge is that managers disrupt the flow and add minutes onto the game by being allowed to argue umpire decisions seemingly at will.
And The Rest
Dem bones, dem bones, dem broke bones: Stephen Drew broke his ankle last night and Carlos Gomez suffered a broken collar bone. Guess which one is going to be missed more.
After acquiring Wilson Betemit in a trade with the Kansas City Royals, the Detroit Tigers designated long time third baseman Brandon Inge for assignment.
The Royals might not be done there, as talks continue with the Philadelphia Phillies over Melky Cabrera.
Clayton Kershaw and Tim Lincecum defined pitching duel yesterday afternoon.
Perhaps the much maligned owner of the Los Angeles Dodgers, Frank McCourt, could better spend his time preparing for boring hearings instead of firing hitting coaches.
Eric Bedard's injury is hurting his trade value. No, seriously.
Make no mistake, baseball is the greatest symphony known to man.

Worksite Chair Yoga and Meditation Reduce Stress
Mind-Body-Spirit News:
Brief periods of yoga or meditation in the workplace helped reduce stress among office workers, researchers reported in Evidence-Based Complementary and Alternative Medicine (2012; doi: 10.1155/2012/501986).
The combination of stress and a sedentary job increases the risk of cardiovascular and metabolic disorders—and between the demands of work and family life, many office workers don't find time for stress management practices.
Researchers from the University of Western Sydney and the University of New South Wales in Sydney, Australia, conducted a study to observe whether yoga postures and guided meditation performed while seated at an office workstation would affect the mental and physical signs of stress. The scientists believed that both practices would elicit a relaxation response when compared with continuing with office work as usual.
Participants were 20 adults with no uncontrolled illness. All subjects took part in each of the three interventions: yoga, meditation and the control condition (continuing with work as usual). Each 15-minute intervention was separated by at least 1 day. Assessments of stress markers were taken at baseline, during the 15-minute intervention and 15 minutes after the intervention. Measures included perceived stress, blood pressure, respiration rate, heart rate and heart rate variability.
Data analysis showed that both yoga and guided meditation reduced perceived stress (the mental aspect), and this effect continued through the postintervention period. The yoga intervention reduced more physical markers of stress than guided meditation; however, both practices lowered respiration rates. While improvements in mental stress persisted through the 15-minute postintervention period, markers of physical stress tended to return to baseline levels, except for respiratory rates following chair yoga.
Study author Birinder S. Cheema, PhD, senior lecturer and researcher at the University of Western Sydney, said, "Our findings highlight the benefits of brief yoga and meditation practice in the office workplace. We believe that these practices should be used, particularly by those employed in sedentary occupations, to counteract the damaging effects of stress on cardiovascular and metabolic health. Future studies should investigate the long-term effect of worksite-based yoga and/or meditation practice on employee health, absenteeism, job performance and job satisfaction, particularly in those suffering from high levels of work-related stress."

Beware Your Cell Phone! It Causes Wrinkles, Cosmetic Surgeons Say
If you're looking older than your years, you may have 'smartphone face'

(MORE: Replacing Old Joints Can Improve Your Love Life)
I'm not talking about brain and neck tumors that could result from the electromagnetic radiation that these devices emit. That's old news. Besides, nothing's been proved, or won't be until long-term study results are available — in 15 to 25 years, researchers say. But the way smartphone sales are soaring we may not have to wait that long for those results. According to the latest United Nations Telecom Agency Report, worldwide cell phone subscriptions have topped 6 billion, more than triple what they were a decade ago.
I'm not referring to people using their smartphones behind the wheel, either. According to the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration, at least 9 people a day are killed and more than 1,060 people injured in crashes that involve a distracted driver. That's just in the United States.
So far I've been willing to accept the above risks to my health and life. But what I can't accept is this new revelation: According to the American Society for Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, smartphones can make you look prematurely old. There's no medical name for this condition, at least not yet. Until there is I'm calling it "smartphone face." I may be one of its victims.
I read about smartphone face on a cosmetic surgeon's website. His office is in Minneapolis, where I live. I went on his site after looking at my mug in the mirror while shaving. I couldn't believe how droopy my face and neck had become. I thought maybe some nips and tucks might be in order. Little did I know — and was about to find out — that the reason I'd aged so much is because I'm always on my cell phone.
The doctor's website contains a statement that he attributes to the ASAPS: "Lines and creases may develop if you spend an excessive amount of time texting and checking your email on your smartphone. The constant downward gaze caused by smartphone use may be causing some individuals to experience more lines and creases on their neck than would appear naturally. Even if your face maintains its youthful volume, signs of aging on the neck can give you away."
His website cites a Manhattan cosmetic surgeon who offers a "BlackBerry facial," which includes cleansings, peels and hydration treatments.
The obvious cure for smartphone face isn't costly surgery or treatments. It's giving up my smartphone and all of its apps. But as vain as I am I don't see how I can ever be without it. I've gotten used to being honked at for still checking messages in my car when the stoplight turns green. I no longer die of embarrassment when someone calls me at a concert or live theater event and I've forgotten to put it on vibrate. I guess I'll have to accept this new side effect: It's not a brain tumor or a car wreck, for God sakes. It's only wrinkles.
Only wrinkles? I think l will book that appointment with the Minneapolis cosmetic surgeon. Consultations are free.

For those who do somehow think that zombies will come for us all one day, scrambling for the right flashlight batteries might be something you'll want to avoid. Pick up this Panasonic any-battery flashlight and forget about that problem.
If you can stop watching The Walking Dead long enough to check this flashlight out, you'll realize it's actually a pretty interesting concept and one that seems like a lot more devices should employ.
Basically it doesn't matter what flashlight batteries you use, because they'll all work. Most devices specify which batteries they need and how many, but this flashlight will take one AA battery and one AAA battery if that's all you've got.
Be prepared for the potential arrival of zombies with this handy flashlight.

Jetta SportWagen R
Over the weekend, I spent some time getting our daily driver MK5 Jetta back to stock as our lease will be up early next year. I'ts a fun car but we're looking into what car to replace it with… maybe the MK6 Jetta? I dunno.
The Volkswagen Golf Variant we commonly known here in the states as the Jetta SportWagen is now on its 4th body version. The release of the latest MK6 Jetta SportWagen features a completely redesigned front end.
Quick comparison between the MK5 and the MK6 SportWagen
The updated MK6 front end certainly looks fresh consistent with the front end of of MK6 Golf. But what if you already have the MK5 SportWagen and just wanted to update your look to the MK6 without having to trade in your ride?
Well a guy in Japan had the same thought and what he did was pretty remarkable.
He started with a 2009 MK5 Jetta SportWagen known there as Golf Variant.
He then started personalizing it with your basic mods like wheels suspension, front lip and rear valance. But just like many of us, it didn't really stop there as he further enhanced it with big brake kits, custom dual exhausts, cold-air intake, fender extensions and a different sets of wheels to name a few.
In the midst of him tricking out his ride, Volkswagen released info on the MK6 Golf R. This model features a real aggressive front bumper.
He got a hold of the brochure and more ideas started rolling. I'll build my own MK6 Jetta Sportwagen R!!
To start the conversion, he got the necessary MK6 parts like the front fenders, hood, headlights, grill and the ever so important Golf R front bumper.
Surprisingly enough, it actually looked goood.
He even took it up a notch by extending the hood a few inches longer just enough to cover the top portion of the oversized VW badge while giving the car a mean and angry look.
And after all said and done, this is the finished look.
He later replaced the front grill with the badgeless version which looked even better.
There you have it, an MK6 Jetta SportWagen R stylings based on a MK5 Jetta Sport Wagen.
