STEUBENVILLE, Ohio—FORBES, a leading source of business news and financial information, has named Franciscan University of Steubenville to its prestigious list of America's Top Colleges 2014.
Go to: Full List | Franciscan University's Profile
From the 4,500-plus colleges and universities in the United States, FORBES and the Center for College Affordability and Productivity select only 650 schools that distinguish themselves based on outcomes, or in FORBES' business parlance, ROI: What are students getting out of college? This means ranking the colleges and universities on post-graduate success (32.5%), student satisfaction (25%), student debt (25%), academic success (10%), and graduation rates (7.5%).
In its debut in FORBES' Top Colleges, Franciscan University was ranked 364th overall, 266th in private colleges, and 87th among Midwest colleges and universities. FORBES' editors drew attention to Franciscan's faith households, domestic and international mission trips, and the study abroad program in Gaming, Austria.
"FORBES has recognized what our alumni consistently tell us about the excellence of our academics, strength of our Catholic evangelistic environment and outreaches, and solid career and vocation preparation," says Father Sean O. Sheridan, TOR, president of Franciscan University. "This ranking is one more indicator of how well Franciscan is forming the next generation of Catholic leaders to go forth and transform the world."
The FORBES ranking differs from other higher education evaluation services by focusing on questions of importance to incoming students: Are the classes interesting? Will most students graduate in four years? Will students incur heavy debt while getting a degree? Are graduates likely to get a good job and advance in their chosen profession?
The FORBES' schools represent a diverse mix of private and public institutions that range from the ivy-league schools and religious institutions to liberal arts universities, online and commuter schools, and military academies.
Franciscan University is one of only five schools included in the FORBES list that are also recommended in the Cardinal Newman Society's guide to Catholic colleges committed to providing "a faithful Catholic education."

2013-2014 Abstracts
Venture-backed IPOs: Performance from the Public Investor Perspective
Thomas M. Hamnett
This paper examines the cumulative returns from venture-capital-backed US initial public offerings (IPOs) over the time frame 1993-2012, and compares their performance for public investors with other types of IPOs. The research compares two investment strategies – an "equal buy-in" strategy that looks at buying IPOs and holding for a set time frame, and a "rebalanced portfolio" strategy that invests a set amount of capital and rebalances based on the number of IPOs in the sample. The results show that for the "equal buy-in" strategy, VC-backed IPOs perform well in the short-term but under-perform in the long-term. In the "rebalanced portfolio" strategy, VC-backed IPOs outperform both the market and other IPO types across all time periods studied. This suggests for public investors a portfolio of VC-backed IPOs that rebalances over time may outperform the market
The Impact of Financial Crises on the Economic Values of Financial Conglomerates
Hyung Min Lee
This paper discusses how the diversification strategies employed by banks affected their economic values during financial crises. The results from an analysis of 5,158 observations of U.S. banks covering a sample period between 1998 and 2012 show a consistent discount on economic values of diversified banks and a positive relationship between the depth of the discount and the degree of diversification. The results also show weak evidence of a price premium on diversified banks during crises, but the premium is unstable across crises and is not sufficient to compensate for the initial discount on those banks.
Does the Market Reward Accretive Deals? An Investigation of Acquirer Performance and Earnings per Share Accretion
Connor Lynagh
This study investigates whether the earnings per share (EPS) impact of mergers and acquisitions affects acquirers' stock performance. In theory, the EPS impact of a deal is irrelevant, and the market should not be concerned with the "cosmetics" of EPS accretion or dilution. Interestingly, accretion is found to be positively and statistically significantly related to acquirer performance around deal announcements prior to 2000. However, this effect reverses after 2000: accretion is found to be negatively and statistically significantly related to acquirer returns in this later period. It appears that attention paid to the issue of earnings accretion is unwarranted, and may in fact cause acquirers to engage in value-destructive deals in order to maximize EPS impacts.
An Analysis of the Banking System Structure in Chile, Colombia and Peru in Light of the Creation of the Integrated Latin American Market – MILA Market
Ines Orozco
This study analyzes the structure and historical performance of the banking systems of Chile, Colombia and Peru in the context of the economic and financial integration initiatives being pursued in Latin America. In spite of the different timing of their financial reforms, we find many similarities across their banking systems that will help with the integration initiatives. We conclude that that there are opportunities for the Chilean banks to capture higher margins in Colombia and Peru as certain inefficiencies still prevail. We also find that the banking systems have very similar structures, are resilient, and well capitalized to deal with the integration.

none of those spinners will fit the stock GC motors. the GC has those threads & nuts mounted to the shaft, which makes it impossible to use these spinners im going to be changing the motors out, thats why they're going to fit on mine. i "believe" i saw some somewhere that might fit the stock shafts, but dont remember where, "or if" i saw some. but ill see if i can find some.http://www.rcgroups.com/forums/showthread.php?t=1759358 heres my build on the HK ys-11

So I can hit the ground running and without having to search the entire thread, I have a couple of set-up questions: 1). Is CG in the manual correct? If not? what do you recommend? 2) What are you programming for expos? If all goes well and the wind cooperates, I'll try to maiden this week. Would like to get her in the air by Wednesday as I have to travel Thurs-Sat.
If Callie's graphics arrive tomorrow I'll bring her to the club meeting Tuesday night. Thanks, Hawk |

I noticed Grayson Hobby recommends a slightly different measurement for the center of gravity than the manual. My main point is that if the CG is a little bit off........it is much better to be a little nose heavy than tail heavy. A nose heavy plane will fly....and a tail heavy plane will crash. You likely have learned this in your experience flying the T-28 and others. Best of luck and have fun with your beautiful grand cruiser 310! Mike |

Truthfully, I just put in a 2200 mAh 3 cell pack and called it good. I use 50% expo high and low on ailerons and elevator, and 80% low on rudder. I use a real high expo for ground handling so that on takeoff run, any sloppy thumb movements won't send the model tearing off the centerline.

i recieved my motors & spinners from HK today. these are the nicest spinners ive ever seen. the larger spinner in the back is a $35 eflite spinner. and the other 2 spinners cost $8 combined. the turnigy 35-36 1000kv is going to fit perfectly within the nacelle. ive also got counter rotating props for the GC. cant wait to see the difference with this setup.

Looks great. I have to get some ! Haven't even maidened mine yet and am already itching to upgrade. Did you also upgrade the esc's from the 30's? Figure you'll need to if you're thinking 4S.
Graphics came but I think there's been a disconnect on my part. I didn't describe what I wanted well enough. Not Caliie's fault . She provided quality decals . Just missed the mark. My own fault. So, I might just go with the Dynam graphics. I'll get her up in the air and since she's really intended for scale type flying, I won't push her too hard. |

Kobe's cast removed, in walking boot
APR 23, 2013 6:57p ET
Bryant announced that his cast has been removed and replaced by a boot.
The tweet included a link to his Instagram profile with a split photo of his left foot in the cast and another sporting the new boot.
"Cast off today. I have zero swelling and virtually no pain. Boot now for a few months. I start therapy this week #StartwhereUstand #takethechallenge #pray4bear," Bryant tweeted with the Instagram photo attached.
Bryant is scheduled to be sidelined for the next six to nine months.
He suffered the injury April 12 against the Golden State Warriors with two games remaining in the regular season. Despite the absence of Kobe, the Lakers clinched a playoff berth as the No. 7 seed.
They face San Antonio Spurs on Wednesday looking to even the series at one apiece.

Photos and reportage, Leon Worden, SCVTV.com
The Santa Clarita Planning Commission is scheduled Tuesday to take the next steps necessary to annex a pair of Sand Canyon movie ranches into the city – including about the closest thing to a guarantee that a city government can provide, to ensure the movie ranches will be allowed to continue filming as they've always done.
The two movie ranches lie just south of Placerita Canyon Road. One is the 400-acre Sable Ranch/Rancho Maria, where Mel Brooks found its lakes, rustic Western town, barn, fields, bamboo and train an ideal setting for his 1983 comedy, "Robin Hood: Men in Tights."
The other is the 200-plus acre Rancho Deluxe, with a lavish Mediterranean villa, waterfalls, lakes, big oak trees, meadows, cabins, a dojo and a heliport that attracted the likes of "NCIS L.A.," "The Mentalist" and the Geico gecko.
The Santa Clarita City Council voted to start the annexation process July 12, and both ranches have agreed to be added into the city's boundaries – if.
That "if" is twofold. The first one is relatively simple. The city would need to pre-zone the properties as "open space/agriculture."

The second stipulation is somewhat more complex. To get the property owners' support for the annexation, the city would need to establish a special "overlay zone" giving film companies wide latitude to operate on the property, with provisions for expanding those film operations.
In sum, the annexation involves 686.16 acres, most of which is in private ownership within the Angeles National Forest in unincorporated Los Angeles County. Existing development includes 13 single-family homes and the two movie ranches, each with numerous buildings.
The area was originally going to be included in the Vista Canyon-Fair Oaks-West Sand Canyon annexation application that the council approved earlier this year. It was subsequently pulled to be considered separately.
The 630.3 acres in the forest are currently zoned "open space/National Forest" and would be rezoned "open space/agriculture" Tuesday. The remaining 55.86 acres are zoned "non-urban 1" in the city's General Plan and would be rezoned "residential estate."
That's the easy part. The more detailed part is the creation of a Movie Ranch Overlay Zone that would govern film activities at any movie ranch within the special zone. For now, the zoning would apply only to the Sable and Deluxe ranches, but it could cover other movie ranches in the future.
"It is anticipated that the (Movie Ranch Overlay Zone) could be placed on additional movie ranches in the city, including movie ranches that could be annexed in the future," a city staff report states. "However, no additional properties are proposed at this time."
As proposed, the special zoning would allow the two movie ranches to do what they've been doing without government interference, as long as they're operating within the listed parameters.
For instance, they would be able to film 24 hours a day indoors, and 24 hours outdoors as long as they film no closer than 500 feet from their neighbors. Within 500 feet, they would be limited to 7 a.m. to 10 p.m. Special effects, helicopter landings and "excessive noise" as determined by the city film office also would be limited to 7 a.m. to 10 p.m.
Each affected ranch could build as many temporary movie sets and parking areas as they need for production. Temporary sets could be of any height. Lighting would have to be shielded from streets and adjoining properties.
Each would be pre-approved to have up to 10,000 square feet of office space and two permanent sound stages with a combined maximum area of 40,000 square feet. The sound stages could be up to 56 feet tall, and at least 100 feet from residential neighbors. Additional sound stages would require Planning Commission approval, and all would have to comply with normal building and safety regulations.
Special events would be permitted Sunday through Thursday from 7 a.m. to 10 p.m., and Fridays and Saturdays from 7 a.m. to midnight. Hours could be expanded with planning director approval.
If the Planning Commission approves the new overlay zone Tuesday, it would go to the City Council for final approval.

Photo by Bev Grigsby Friends Of Library Program Outlined A "Friends of the Library" pro- years. This means that nearly 7,000 gram has been initiated by California Baptist College. Mrs. Sibyl Brown, college librarian, presented the need, desirability, and details of such a program to the CBC Board of Trustees at their recent annual meeting. Because the Western College Association accreditation committee holds to the American Library Association's standards, it is imperative, Mrs. Brown pointed out, that some consistent plan of support supplement the regular budget of the library. (The ALA standard has been raised to a minimum of 50,000 volumes.) "Friends of the Library" would enable the college to strengthen the library's areas of weakness and would be particularly vital in achieving the standard set forth and which CBC must meet in two and a half volumes must be added annually. Of this number, approximately 1,000 volumes may be expected as direct gifts from private collections. The average cost of a book for California Baptist College is $5.00; consequently, the membership fee for the "Friends of the Library" organization has been set at that amount. The college administration and library committee are now anticipating at least 1,000 memberships by September 1. Not only did the Board of Trustees heartily approve the plan presented by Mrs. Brown, but they voted a recommendation that, on an individual basis, each trustee become a charter member of "Friends of the Library." Before leaving the campus, the initial dues of each had been paid. Further plans to effectuate, implement, and promote the program will be made public in a few weeks. CBC CELEBRATES FOUNDERS DAY Citations of Achievement were presented for the first time in the history of CBC at the Founder's Day Dinner, Feb. 2, to Dr. S. G. Posey and Rev. Dewey C. Squyres by Dr. Loyed R. Simmons in honor of their contributions to the college. Dr. Posey, field representative of the college since January, fathered the 500-500 Plan instrumental in accreditation, and was executive secretary-treasurer of the Southern Baptist Convention for ten years. Rev. Dewey C. Squyres, pastor of the First Baptist Church in Lawn- dale, was field secretary 1954-56, and by securing $100,000 in small gifts enabled the college to move from El Monte in 1955 and purchase its present site. The eighth annual Founder's Day Program, recognizing Baptist schools, colleges, and their benefactors, began with the Golden Gate Seminary Choir presenting a concert of sacred music during the chapel period. Dr. Posey spoke to the ministerial students at a special eleven o'clock session in the college chapel. The remainder of the student body heard Rev. Dewey C. Squyres' message at the Magnolia Avenue Church. The guests of honor were hosted by the ASB Council at noon in the dining hall, and were presented to the faculty at a 3 p.m. afternoon tea. Dr. T. W. Medearis, vice-chairman of the Board of Trustees, acted as master of ceremonies during the 6:30 p.m. dinner. The principal speaker was Dr. E. N. Patterson, President of Grand Canyon College, (Con't on Page 3)

'Andro' Turns In Cliched Yet Well-Acted and Directed Episode "Music of a Different Drum"
Reviews Ex DeusWritten for TrekWeb by 'O. Deus'
"Music of a Different Drum'
Summary: A pleasant and inoffensive though not particularly original or interesting episode starring Andromeda's only talented actor.
There's not much that can be said about Music of a Distant Drum. Despite its claims to focus on Nietzchian-human slavery, it essentially repeats a pretty standard plot that you've probably seen about thirty times if you've ever watched a season of Bonanza. Strange man arrives to disturb the quiet backwoods lives of a single mother and her (adopted) son, thugs are hunting for him and menace the woman. The son initially distruts the man but overcomes those feelings to view him as a father figure. The woman displays some feelings for the man but ultimately their destinities take them to different places. Indeed except for the contrived action sequences it's even a bit similar to TOS's Paradise Syndrome.
Not that it's a bad episode though by any means. Despite an often awfull script by Robert Wolfe full of "hammer over the head" characterization and characters repeating the obvious at the camera, it features quiet and skillfull direction and another good performance from Keith Hamilton Cobb. Allan Kroeker, who directed many great Star Trek episodes, directs this one and Cobb is essentially the only actor on Andromeda who can act so the pairing make for a watchable and occasionally charming episode. The guest starring actress also turns in some good work which is a nice contrast to some of the genuinely awfull guest star casting in previous Andromeda episodes. Best of all, Sorbo and the rest of the Idiot Brigade remain mostly out of sight except for a confused scene in which Beka rambles on about her dreams for several minutes. It's a bit that should have been left on the cutting room floor.
Certainly an episode taking place on a planet where human beings are enslaved by Nietzchians featuring the Andromeda had the potential for dealing with some more complex material. Instead we have Tyr behaving completely out of characher, even once he regains his memory. He spends the entire episode completely disregarding his survival which is antitethical to the concept of a Nietzchian and to Tyr. His relationship with the mother and son is at first justified as ensuring his survival but he intervenes in a non-lethal situation and fails to kill the assailants pretty much guranteeing that they'll report back on his whereabouts. Next he clashes with members of the Drago pride and not only tells them as much as he knows about himself but leaves his opponent alive, conscious and not even tied up. This moves him out of sentimentaility and into Hunt levels of irrationality. Finally he lets the mother and son be used as hostages against him even though any idiot at this point would understand that this gurantees their deaths, something the same group of Nietzchians had just demonstrated for him less than a few minutes ago. And the woman's continued risk taking to help a Nietzchian is even more strange and irrational.
The entire notion of human slavery really isn't addressed except in bits of dialouge where the humans describe how awfull the Drago pride is but we don't see any of it and when we do meet Drago pride Nietzchians they just come off looking like regular thugs. There doesn't remotely seem to be anything smart or superhuman about them. There's no real interaction between the parties. But what little we do get makes Captain Hunt seem all the more foolish and cowardly for puttering about on his crew's personal errands when there is real evil and oppression to be fought. There are a few million people enslaved on this planet, yet Hunt spends extraordinary efforts to rescue Tyr who got himself into this situation but doesn't seem to show any concern at all for the actual slaves. Indeed it's Tyr who suggests that the woman accompany them and not Hunt, who despite giving sanctimonious lectures to everyone in sight, doesn't seem to care much one way or another. Providing refuge to anyone who wanted it would have been the moral way to go but the idea doesn't even seem to occur to Hunt.
Even more irrational is Hunt's flat refusal to carry cargo for pay or mine and sell an asteroid, especially since just two episodes ago he was reduced to selling off parts of the Andromeda in order to pay for repairs. He doesn't even bother to defend his position but acts as if it's the natural one to take. Voyager has mined and traded materials and they were actually on a mission while Andromeda spends long stretches of time sitting around and doing nothing or fumbling about on a crisis caused by a personal errand of a crew member. Seems like mining a platinum asteroid might give Andromeda something to trade instead of selling off part of itself or the personal effects of the crew. But then this is an episode high on good feelings and low on common sense. An unfortunately all too common aspect of Andromeda.
Next week: Harper gets a spot on Andromeda's Most Wanted, probably not just because of his annoyance factor and obsessive mugging for the camera...but who knows?

David Tennant has revealed that he is always inspired by Shakespeare.
The Scottish actor has appeared on stage in Hamlet and in productions of King Lear and Romeo and Juliet.
Tennant told TheatreMania: "I am on the board of the Royal Shakespeare Company and a huge part of what they do is education and outreach - partly just to educate an audience for themselves but also just to teach that sort of language so kids can appreciate it."
He added: "I think Shakespeare is one of those things that you get very excited about when you do it and when you love it and when you feel like you own that language.
"Often it's a difficult thing to teach to kids because it can feel like a slow and a difficult thing, but it can be really inspiring!"
The actor revealed that he often finds Shakespeare easier to perform than some contemporary works.
He said: "Sometimes it's easier to do Shakespeare than more modern stuff because you have the rhythm of it and because when the language is really good, really juicy, it's much easier to get behind it and join it up in your head.
"The hardest plays to learn are badly written ones, so actually Shakespeare is not as hard to learn as some scripts."

Free Meatballs at Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza
Categories: Because It's Free
But we're not sure why August. St. Anthony's actual Saint Day is June 13, and if your name is Anthony and you're particularly fond of Anthony's Coal Fired Pizza, this one's for you. The local pizza chain with the old-world style of pizza baking is offering a promotion this Sunday: If your first or last name is Anthony (and you can prove it with ID), you'll receive a free order of meatballs with ricotta cheese. And an added bonus: They're not judging if you're a sinner or a saint.
But, of course, there's a catch. There's only one free plate per party, so if you're Anthony and so are a group of your friends, or you come from five generations of Anthony's and are hoping for a meaty feast, you're out of luck.
This deal only works on the 13th, but in any of the 20 Florida locations -- including Doral, Pinecrest and Aventura, so go and enjoy, Tony-baby!.

Supercross Predictions, From Rock Stars
Jason Ellis--Pro Skateboarder/ Radio Personality / Rock Star"Honestly, who do I want to win? I want Chad Reed to win, even if he is on a Honda. I keep thinking that James is the guy, because he used to be the guy, but if I had to put money on it for A1, I would probably put my money on Dungey. Dungey's got the bike that he's used to, and word on the street is that it's a really good bike, and I feel like for some ridiculous reason he's underrated. I mean, he is the champion,..

I am an expat
Currently living in Venezuela, in Caracas | |
I come from the USA | |
My parents emigrated from Haiti when I was three years-old and my sister and I soon followed. I grew up in Marin County, California where I learned quickly to assimilate to the American culture. Throughout my childhood, I seesawed between the very conservative culture of my parents and the often times liberal culture of my peers. By the time I finished high school, I began to realize that I felt much more comfortable with the idea of being a Haitian immigrant in American society and started gravitating towards more of my parents cultural norms. When I finished college, I stood firm with the ability to enter and exit either culture with great ease whenever necessary. Now married to a first generation immigrant, and raising two children who are considered second generation immigrants, I often find myself struggling to maintain their sense of comfort with both the American and Haitian culture. I am constantly confronted with issues for which there is no right or wrong answer. To further complicate this issue, we recently relocated to Caracas, Venezuela. I now feel the need to maintain a balance of the Haitian, American and Venezuelan cultures to make the most of our experience. |
English, French, Haitian Creole, Spanish |
Okay fellow expats in Venezuela, can we aim for the 2nd or 3rd week in September? We are leaving town next week and then school starts, so it will be difficult to get away from all the errands. Let me know which area of Caracas works best for you all. I prefer the Chacao municipality because it's safe and easy to navigate via train.
I wrote a post about the cost living in Caracas, which you can find by clicking here Cost of Living. Hope this helps, but if not, feel free to ask me any questions.
Yes, this site in terms of meeting other expats in Caracas has been pretty quiet. I am in Caracas and would be open to a get together.

SoBeWFF: Robert Irvine Wants to Engage You at Party Impossible
Categories: South Beach Wine & Food Festival
Food Network |
Robert Irvine hosts Party Impossible at SoBe Fest. |
Irvine has a busy weekend ahead of him with a full schedule of events, starting with a stop at Overtown's Booker T. Washington High School on Friday, February 24 to tour the vegetable garden and cook with students. Later Friday evening, Irvine will host Party Impossible at the Herzog & de Meuron parking garage at 1111 Lincoln Road at 10 p.m.. This first-time event is designed to engage guests with interactive challenges that Irvine will do with help from the audience. We're not sure, exactly, what's in store, but the buzz ranges from Irvine having to break down a giant tuna to carving an ice sculpture.
We caught up with Irvine, who told us about his show, Party Impossible, and what to do if you want to run a failing restaurant.
New Times: On Restaurant: Impossible you're known for being a turnaround artist. You like to take ridiculous challenges like failing restaurants, miserable cooks and turn them into something more than a horror show. How do you like doing that?
Robert Irvine: Restaurant: Impossible has been awesome for me. We've done 36 restaurants and 33 of them are now thriving when they probably would have closed down. If you give people knowledge and they listen to you, they can better their lifestyle and their business. So many people become complacent in what they do and for 20 years they make great money and all of a sudden they're not making any money... There's a reason for that. They just don't see it.
What are the three things you should do if you want to fail in the restaurant industry?
First of all, open a business with no backup money. That's an instant failure because if you don't have at least half a year's revenue in reserve you are going to fail. You don't know when bad times are going to hit and you're still going to have to pay your bills and your staff.
Number two is getting into the business without any prior knowledge of the restaurant industry. I've met a load of people who think the restaurant business is so easy. They take the money they've got, they take out a bank loan, they borrow from their family and they expect to be successful because they've been going to restaurants all their life.
Also, hire people that don't know anything. By all means, never hire anyone that knows more than you.
This is the first time you're hosting a premiere party at SoBe Fest. Can you tell us about Party Impossible?
Party Impossible is going to be so dramatic. I'm going to draw people in. I'm going to ask people to help me. I want to make this evening interactive. I really want to get everyone who comes to this party involved. Trust me. Everyone will be involved in some way, shape, or form. And you can drink. Because the more you drink, the funner it gets.
There are rumors of some interesting challenges. We hear you're going to be breaking down a tuna and stuffing éclairs?
Don't believe what you read because I told them I don't want to know what the challenges are in advance. I want everything to be a complete surprise so that I really have to work. I will tell you that the entrance is going to be very dramatic. I'm expecting lots of surprises.
Where do you hang out when you come to Miami for the festival?
I gotta say I love to go to Joe's Stone Crab. Last year I spent a lot of time at BLT Steak. I was at Tantra a couple of years ago, which I really enjoyed. When I go out, I don't make reservations under my name, because I don't want to be treated any differently than anyone else.
So we have to ask. The big buzz at last year's festival, and what made it on every blog, was Paula Deen riding you. What happened there?
Well Paula and I go back a long way. She's like everyone's mum. You can't help but love Paula Deen. When we get together, I'm like her surrogate son. We have so much fun and that You Tube video went viral of Paula riding me like a donkey. She always wants to do two things when she sees me. Either take off my shirt or have me do stupid stuff. Anything I do with Paula, she just taunts me.
If you could host one event at the festival and make it up from scratch, what would it be?
I would have 40 of the most well known chefs doing obstacle courses in food. It would be a race in teams. Each team would be given challenges to complete. And it would be judged by kids. I'm not talking about just cutting things up. It would be weird stuff like with rattlesnakes. It would be like Survivor meets Iron Chef meets Sesame Street.

Airplane quilt and the arrival of summer and all that entails
I think that it turned out pretty cute. This quilt kit was designed by Sharon who I work with. (Hi Sharon! Love this quilt!)
A couple people asked about the airplane fabric. It is from a collection by Michael Miller called Toy Town. (I think.) I love the striped binding, also from Michael Miller.
After delivering the quilt and my heart-felt love and appreciation to my girls' teachers, we went straight from the school to my 5-year-old's Little Gym performance which was to be followed by our weekly trip to Super Target. (Usually, I go during his gymnastics class, because it's right across the street.)
While we were at the Little Gym, my potty-training 3-year-old ran up to me in the middle of the routines saying he needed to go. So we HURRIED, got him on the potty just in time, but not pointed in the right direction and my leg and the floor took the full force of his urgent need to go, until I got him aiming down. (I know, he needs to learn to do it standing up. One step at a time.)
Following the gymnastics showcase we went to Target. This was my first time this summer (and hopefully a rare experience) taking all 4 kids to the grocery store at the same time, but we needed new summer shoes for the oldest of each gender, so I figured I would just grit my teeth and get it over with.
So there I was, with my fire-hydrant pant leg, trying to help my kids pick out decent shoes. (Can I just say here that Target let me down for the first time in 10 years? Not a great girl selection in shoes this spring.) While we're looking for the right sizes, the child who doesn't need shoes (the 7-year-old girl) is happily walking around in turquoise patent-leather gladiator sandals, the boys are not going for the generic shoes but begging for the light-up Spiderman sneakers ("because they make me run REALLY fast, mom!") and I'm trying to swallow the fact that my 10-year-old has really grown 2 shoe sizes since we last bought her shoes.
Then while we pick-up the necessary groceries my 5-year old keeps asking why we aren't buying "the super-absorbant Ultra Charmin" or the Juicy Juice with antioxidants "because this will boost kids' immunity mom!" And I'm feeling the guilt of letting him watch just a little too much television over the past few days.
Finally we get home, get everyone fed, my pants changed, the youngest down for a nap, the older ones playing with the pre-arranged post-last-day-of-school playdates and I'm ready to sit down and sew or something. Then I look outside and see my 7-year-old wearing the turquoise gladiator sandals! My first thought is that she somehow smuggled them out under her shirt and I have a thief on my hands. When I ask her about it she timidly says, "I just put them in the bottom of the cart."
Well, I've had plenty of times where my sneaky children put stuff in the cart, and because I'm a sneaky mom I always find it and stealthily hand it to the cashier saying "We aren't really getting this Transformer today." This was the first time I actually bought something I didn't know was there! I allowed her to keep the sandals (partly because the tags were cut) because she always gets the hand-me-downs, but I told her if she ever does it again, she's paying it ALL out of her allowance.
Clearly I need to find some other way to do my grocery shopping this summer with out bringing everyone with me. (Last summer I got to the point where I kept pulling food out of our food storage before I finally had to cave and go to the grocery store.)
And speaking of summertime changes, I'm sure my blogging output will decrease a little. I may not be as frequent, but I do promise to still post some good quilts this summer. And hopefully less-grainy, rushed pictures.

I remember those days...but I only have 3 (although I think #1 can count as 2!). I am so grateful now that they are older I can go do things without them, or just take one and leave the others home. Funny story about the sandals. It was just one of those days for you! We're laughing and crying right along with you!

um, yes, I understand this scenario completely!! I like to go grocery shopping at 9 pm to avoid total burnout - it doesn't happen as much as I would like though. here's to lazy days, and no food in the house! :)
Your quilt is super cute! I hope her teacher loved it! - June 2, 2009 at 4:02 PM
- why not sew? said...
totally been there! i am convinced that age and time don't make us gray headed, it's kids. what a blessing they are!
i LOVE the backing fabric you used for the quilt. As my kids would say "i want that"! it's great! - June 2, 2009 at 6:31 PM

...those were the days, my friend, we thought they'd never end.....yes, I rememer clearly! Your quilt turned out adorable--I'm sure the teacher loved it! Have a wonderful summer!

- Lisa @ Life with 4! said...
First of all, the quilt is adorable!
Secondly, don't feel too bad about the shoes.
When my oldest son was about 2 or 3, we were at an outlet mall doing some shopping. As we are walking along, I notice in the window reflection that he is carrying something. What do ya know, a pair of shoes! We had to backtrack to all the stores we had been at to try and figure out where they had come from. Finally, about 12 shops down, we found the right place. He was very upset about not getting to keep the shoes, but an ice cream cone fixed that. - June 2, 2009 at 7:19 PM
- Sherri said...
Wow...you sure brought back memories! I had so many days like that...but looking back...they were good days! And I do hope you get to do a lot of sewing this summer because I love to see your projects!

Love your teacher quilt and the reminder of what it was like to take 4 children to the store. I loved raising my kids but I also love seeing them as adults, raising their own children. LOL
- June 2, 2009 at 7:37 PM
- Bowlby said...
Oh, no! I'm sorry, but this post really made me laugh! It's hard enough taking one child to Target. I really can't imagine taking 4.
I LOVE the striped binding on your airplane quilt! - June 2, 2009 at 7:46 PM
- Kim said...
Great Story! At least you found that you'd paid for them. I got all the way home after a 30 minute (one way) car ride in Bay Area traffic only to have to turn around and go back. It was that important that my son learned a lesson.
Funny thing is he took enough for his sister too. He took lifesaver's that said "Primary Makes Me Happy" on the cover of the package. We were at the LDS bookstore in San Jose. Oh, he also took a mini future missionary tag. - June 2, 2009 at 8:00 PM
- Aimee said...
I am dying laughing! What an adventure! That is too funny. It is way too hard to take all the kids to the grocery store. Last time I did, the tipped the cart over!!
Love the quilt - the binding is really really cool! - June 3, 2009 at 6:07 AM
- The Quilt Buddy said...
Oh Amy...sounds like you have had one heck of a Monday!
BTW-we are going through the same potty training experience with my little person!
Hope today is a little bit easier for you! - June 3, 2009 at 7:28 AM

Hi Amy, I am with you there. My kids were out of school on Friday too. It is going to make life a little more challenging.
I just picked up the Michael Miller "Wild Blue Yonder" airplane fabric from American Quilting. I am going to make a wall hanging for my son. - June 3, 2009 at 11:10 AM

Thanks for the laugh and warning about the fire hydrant pants. We'll be there soon enough.

I do remember clearly those days of taking 4 kids shopping and I can laugh - now! I bought a lipstick once that I had no idea about, Miss 8 (who's now 36) thought she would look like a movie star!!

Oh Amy this takes me back to little kids and trying to fit everything into a day. Sigh. My heart goes out to you. I don't really miss it! Terrible I know. I'm supposed to miss it.

- sharla@mylittlegems said...
I saw your quilt at American Quilting and loved it! I was in town on a limited budget, so I purchased fabric from the store and made my own version for my airplane-obsessed 21 month old :)
Here is the linkhttp://mygratitudeattitudes.blogspot.com/2009/04/airplane-quilt-is-now-flying.html:
I am fairly new at this machine free -motion quilting and love it :) I LOVED everything in your store too! Fabulous! - June 4, 2009 at 7:53 PM

2000s Recipes + Menus
Sweet-Potato Coconut Purée
- Active time:10 min
- Start to finish:2 1/2 hr
November 2008
Drawing her inspiration from the Caribbean, food editor Lillian Chou stirred lightly sweetened coconut milk into roasted sweet potatoes.
- 6 lb medium sweet potatoes
- 1 cup well-stirred canned unsweetened coconut milk
- 3 tablespoons packed dark brown sugar, or to taste
Preheat oven to 450°F with rack in middle.
Prick sweet potatoes in several places with a fork, then bake on a foil-lined baking sheet, rotating potatoes halfway through baking, until very soft, 45 minutes to 1 hour. When cool enough to handle, halve sweet potatoes and scoop flesh into a bowl.
Meanwhile, bring coconut milk, brown sugar, and 1 tsp salt just to a simmer in a small saucepan over medium heat, stirring occasionally.
Stir into warm sweet potatoes, then pulse in batches in a food processor until smooth. Season with salt.
Cooks' notes:
- Sweet-potato purée can be made 1 day ahead and chilled. Reheat in a large heavy saucepan over medium-low heat, covered, stirring occasionally (20 to 30 minutes).
- We've also got a web-exclusive recipe using the leftover coconut milk.

I want to defined by not what I like, or where I went, but by what I did. My actions, actions, which, I hope, do their part in building a better world, based on the experiences of my past and the lessons I've learned in life.
I grew up happy, with loving parents, plenty to eat, and access to excellent education. I didn't have to worry about paying for college, and never imagined not having enough. But I also knew where it came from, because of the hard work of my parents to give my brother and I more opportunities than they had.
Unlike most children, I was acutely aware that my life was in stark contrast to those in most of the world. I was the first person in my mother's family born in America, and our regular trips to India left me with vivid images of how my life could have been different. I saw firsthand mass poverty, dirty roads, crowded cities and unequal education.
Those days, I was especially close to my Grandma. Her life was tough. She only finished six years of school, and struggled to raise my mom alone, as my grandpa worked for the railroads often far from home. She sacrificed her life in India to come to America, where she didn't speak the language. Because of her, I can speak Telugu, and have a strong personal connection to Indian culture.
Somewhere back then, a spark was lit that burns to this day. I decided early on that I want to do something with my life to help the world. But first, I had to understand the world. I went to College at USC in Los Angeles, getting my first taste of urban inequalities and making friends from vastly different background than I. I studied abroad in Paris, France, arriving in Europe not knowing a single person on the entire continent. After graduating with a degree in Communication, I did a yearlong trip around the world, exploring Europe, volunteering in Nepal and Thailand, and putting a face to the problems I'd read about for years. Understanding poverty, climate change, and human rights, and, most importantly, connecting myself, and my life, to those
In 2008, I began my foray into politics. I jumped on the Barack Obama bandwagon, moving to Iowa and working for his campaign, before taking a job with the Sierra Club in San Francisco. For two years, I worked as a Grassroots Media Coordinator on campaigns all across the country to build a movement to protect and safeguard our environmental heritage.
I returned to graduate school in 2010, enrolling in Columbia University's School of International and Public Affairs, building my economics and policy skills. For my required summer internship I went to Indonesia, where I worked for a local biodiversity foundation's communications department. Other international projects included attending the US Future Leaders Program in Japan, conducting field research on natural resource development in Uganda, and presenting research on public interest and compensation at a conference near Cape Town, South Africa. I graduated in 2012.
Today, I'm a Freelance Writer, fulfilling a dream from my youth, using the power of the written word to educate, inspire, and enact change. As a globalist, I focus on all types of issues, but in my heart are the challenges I feel will define my time on Earth – the environment, human rights, culture, and equity. I'm fiercely anti-consumerist, love nature, and deeply respect cultural knowledge. I believe that the key to change lies in the masses, not in the hands of a few in power. No system, no matter how entrenched, can survive millions calling for change. I hope to play a small role in inspiring that change.
I'm a globalist, and, as mentioned above, have taken several extended trips to diverse parts of the world. For posts on each trip, see below!
2006-07 – Trip Around the World – 13 months traveling around the world. Currently working on a book about this!
2010 – European Trip – Six weeks in France, Germany, the Netherlands, and Italy to meet friends.
2010 – American Roadtrip – Two months exploring and learning about my country, the USA.
2011 – Asian Summer – As part of my graduate program, went to Indonesia for an Internship and then Japan for the US Future Leaders Travel Program.
2012 – South Africa and Botswana – Received a scholarship to travel for the IACM conference in Cape Town, turned it into a six week trip across two countries.
2012-2013 – SE Asia Soul-Searching – Using a friend's wedding as an excuse, went to Taiwan, Thailand, Singapore, and Indonesia to build my writing career. Published several articles during this trip.

Stop Google Calendar spam by disabling automatic invites [Tip]
Posted By Royce On September 10, 2012 @ 10:00 PM In World Wide Web | No Comments
You might have noticed that large quantities of spam are becoming an issue with many Google Calendar accounts. Many users have complained about events showing up in their calendar that they don't know about or never intend on attending. Thankfully, there is a solution to this ongoing rampant annoyance.
If you look at your Google Calendar settings, you should see that by default your calendar settings grant anyone permission to insert an event into your calendar. This is the reason why Google Calendar displays event invites despite the fact that you haven't approved or read the associated e-mail.
In order to correct this problem, go to your Calendar Settings and look for "Automatically add invitations to my calendar", pick "No…", and hit the "Save" button:
While this quick fix will obviously degrade some Google Calendar functionality, it will stop spam from immersing your calendar.

Kevin Bramble Scramble (born September 19, 1972) is an American disabled ski racer, freeskier, and monoski designer/builder from Cape May Court House, New Jersey. He competes as a monoskier in the LW 12-1 class and is known as a "speed specialist," preferring to compete in downhill and super G.
Bramble grew up in New Jersey and began skiing recreationally in Pennsylvania's Poconos at age 11. By 1994, he was a serious snowboarder and occasional skier living in the Lake Tahoe area when he became paralyzed in a snowboarding accident. He soon taught himself to monoski and moved to Winter Park, Colorado, where he joined the Winter Park Disabled Ski Team. He returned to the Tahoe area soon after, settling in Truckee, California, but having acquired the racing skills that he needed. He was named to the U.S. Disabled Ski Team in 1998 after winning the super G at that year's U.S. Disabled Alpine Championships.
Since 1998, Bramble has had an on-and-off relationship with the U.S. Ski Team, often competing in World Cup competition but eschewing traditional race training in favor of freeskiing with friends at Squaw Valley, California. His greatest success has come in downhill, beginning with a World Cup win on the Paralympic course at Snowbasin, Utah in 2001. A year later, Bramble was the odds-on favorite to win the downhill gold at the 2002 Winter Paralympics in Salt Lake City, Utah, and he did not disappoint, beating teammate Chris Devlin-Young by just 0.17 seconds. Two years later at the Disabled Alpine Skiing World Championships in Wildschönau, Austria, he again won gold in downhill, defeating Germany's Thomas Mayer by an astonishing 1.44 seconds. Two years later at the 2006 Winter Paralympics in Torino, Italy, the pressure was on Bramble to win his third straight major world downhill championship. Once again Bramble proved his dominance, again knocking teammate Devlin-Young down to the silver-medal position with a wild run that won him the gold by nearly a full second.
Bramble has made a reputation for himself not only as a racer but also as a freeskier. One of the first people to take a monoski into terrain parks, halfpipes, and extreme terrain, Bramble and teammate Monte Meier are featured in Warren Miller's 2006 ski movie Off the Grid.
Injuries and health problems have plagued Bramble throughout his career, and as of October 2006 it was questionable whether he would compete during the upcoming season, in which not a single downhill was scheduled on the World Cup calendar.
After several years skiing in a monoski he had purchased, Bramble decided to design and build his own. After several prototypes resulted in a model he was satisfied with, he began hand-building monoskis for friends and teammates, and Kevin Bramble Goodz (KBG) was born. After operating the business out of his garage in Truckee for several years, Bramble relocated back to his home town of Cape May Court House, New Jersey, in 2004 so his family could help him run the business.[1] Seven out of the 10 current U.S. Disabled Ski Team monoskiers ski in KBG monoskis. Bramble also builds his own unique, three-wheeled wheelchairs and has plans to launch a downhill mountain-bike wheelchair soon.[1]
