K-W United FC News Release – www.kwunitedfc.com
Wednesday, February 6, 2013
WATERLOO, Ont. – K-W United FC was formally presented to the public Wednesday afternoon as the newest PDL/W-League franchise to commence play for the 2013 season. The announcement was made at a press conference held at Core Lifestyle and Recreation Complex in Kitchener. K-W United FC is the new moniker of the former Hamilton FC Rage, which has been participating in the PDL and W-League since 2010.
"We are thrilled to bring a PDL and W-League franchise to the Waterloo Region," said Barry MacLean, President of K-W United FC. "The sport has grown dramatically in this area and we expect these teams to be a springboard for our best local talent."
An integral part of the club's move to the K-W area was the enthusiastic support from the community. An official partnership was announced with Kitchener Soccer Club to coincide with the inaugural season of K-W United FC.
"The Kitchener Soccer Club is very proud and excited to have formed an alliance with the K-W United FC," said Frank Hivert, President of Kitchener Soccer Club. "It aligns very well with our strategic vision and it will be key in our goal to provide better development programs for our soccer players and coaches for both our house league and competitive teams."
Wilfrid Laurier University will host training and game day operations out of University Stadium in Waterloo as well as provide administrative and marketing assistance.
"Laurier is proud to be the home of K-W United FC," said Director Athletics and Recreation Peter Baxter. "Our partnership marks University Stadium as the destination for high performance soccer; in the Summer with K-W United FC and in the Fall with the Laurier Golden Hawks."
In extending a warm welcome to the KW United FC, Kitchener Mayor Carl Zehr noted: "This news speaks directly to the strength of community support for this sport, the forward-thinking vision of the Kitchener Soccer Club and the tireless work the club does in this region. This alliance will offer exciting opportunities for the many talented – and budding – soccer players in our community."
The men's PDL team will include a 14-game regular season schedule and take part in the Great Lakes Division of the Central Conference. They kickoff their season with a three-game road trip commencing in Louisville, Ky. against the River City Rovers on May 23. K-W United FC Director of Football Brett Mosen will continue as Head Coach of the PDL side.
"I'm looking forward to building a team that this community will be proud of," Mosen said.
The women's W-League team is scheduled to participate in a 12-game schedule out of the six-team Central Conference. They begin their season at home against local rivals the London Gryphons on May 22. The formal appointment of a Head Coach will be announced next week.
Tim Holt, President of United Soccer Leagues, was delighted with the adddition of K-W United to both leagues.
"The launch of K-W United further strengthens what is already an exceptional representation of PDL and W-League teams within Ontario that features both our reigning PDL (FC London) and W-League (Ottawa Fury) Champions," Holt said. "Under the leadership of Barry MacLean and Brett Mosen, the club will immediately provide opportunities for elite, aspiring professional players in Kitchener and Waterloo to develop and perform on a North American stage. Not only will K-W United and its players entertain local soccer fans on the field throughout the summer, but through their involvement in the soccer community year-round."

The crime genre entered Italy in the late 19th century as an import, and for a while authors followed models developed abroad, particularly in the United States, England and France. Soon, however, the genre revealed its potential to confront pressing and often uncomfortable issues which were pertinent to the Italian reality, and became a useful tool to restore, symbolically at least, the truth and justice that were, and still are, systematically denied in reality. Today the crime genre in Italy, particularly its noir sub-genre, narrates so that readers remember, so that they may take heed and action, turning cognition into an act of resistance against oblivion and rebellion against injustice. This book explores three broad areas that contemporary Italian noir literature appears particularly keen to debate so that they are not consigned to silence: unresolved historical and political legacies, the repercussions of which still inform and affect life and practices in the present times; the problematic institution of the family, considered as the bedrock of Italian culture and the founding principle of Italian society, with some specific attendant questions of gender politics; and the justice system seen through some of its operators, nominally in charge of putting the wrongs right and frequently accused of preventing this from happening. The texts analysed in this volume have all been published in the last twenty years. They represent an effort to resist oblivion and to expose and counter injustice through the power of the word. Chapter One looks at revisitsations of recent Italian history and the role of genre fiction in acts of resistance against revisionist attempts or cover-ups. It examines novels that look back at the years of the fascist regime and, more recently, at the period from the anni di piombo onwards. Chapter Two considers the contribution made to the giallo and noir genre by women writers, looking at the effects that female practitioners of this traditionally conservative genre have had on its ethics and aesthetics. Chapter Three examines novels set in a familial context and looks at a range of family dynamics, expressed in the relationships between mothers and sons, mothers and daughters, large extended families or small nuclear ones. If some of the texts expose the devastating effects of the violence perpetrated "in the name of love", others more positively offer hope, demonstrating how more desirable options do exist and can be pursued. Chapter Four looks at justice as a system and at its practitioners, as, in an interesting development peculiar to Italy, a significant number of judges, lawyers, senior police officers have recently become involved in crime fiction writing. This chapter investigates the contribution that these "specialists", who have extensive theoretical and technical knowledge in a field which crime fiction routinely frequents, can make to the genre; it also analyses whether these authors, who bring together the moral function of unveiling the truth (prerogative of the investigator) and the social function of rectifying a wrong (prerogative of the upholders of the law), may have a role in forming a more ethically and socially aware Italian citizen.

Iraqi Sunni fighters secure the funeral of a man who was killed in artillery fire in Fallujah, western Iraq, on Jan. 4, 2014.
- Filed Under
Al-Qaeda militants have seized much of Fallujah, a key city in western Iraq, engaging Iraqi army forces in pitched battles there in a brazen challenge to Iraq's central government.
"The whole of Fallujah is taken," said Qasim Abed, a member of the provincial council in the region and the former governor of Anbar. "The situation is very bad."
Abed was reached Saturday by phone from his home in Ramadi, the capital of Anbar, a mostly Sunni region west of Baghdad. He said militants have occupied police stations and government building throughout Fallujah and are also controlling limited parts of ...

Side Effects (Symptoms) and Complications of Iron Deficiency
Describing the side effects, symptoms and complications of the common problem that is iron deficiency.
Iron deficiency is where our bodies tissues are not getting enough oxygen which make them run at their full capacity. I like to think of it like this: I look after my mum who is physically ill and when I first started looking after her I was barely sleeping but in the short term I was still able to look after her because I had my reserves of energy. In the long run however, I just couldn't do it without a good night's sleep, and that was because I had no energy stored. Iron is the same. We have reserves of it, but once it's gone, it's gone and that's when we begin to suffer from side effects of iron deficiency.
The purpose of this is to educate you about the effects of iron deficiency and also to tell you about the symptoms of iron deficiency. I am actually iron deficient myself, and have many of the effects that I am about to tell you. I'm not boasting about this or trying to be hypocritical, but to allow people not to get in the state that I am. Low iron levels can be devastating because the effects of such can have such an impact on your life, and not one of them in a good way.

When someone is lacking in iron our bodies suffer the consequences. Most of the side effects of iron deficiency that I am about to tell you have a common denominator and that's the lack of oxygen getting to it's required place quick enough. Not one part of the body is invincible, and while people won't have every side effect, as the deficiency gets worse the grade of symptoms will too.
Would you be surprised if I told you that one third of the worlds population is iron deficient?
Some of the more common and initial side effects of poor iron levels include:
- Feeling Breathless after exercise. This could literally be walking up the stairs even if prior to becoming iron deficient you were fit. I was the same whereas now I walk up a flight of stairs too quickly and I have to sit down for a while.
- Feeling Faint. It's the feeling that if you don't lie down you will fall down. It's not very nice at all, and it can occur any time.
- Palpitations. I'm actually on Propranolol – a beta-blocker now for the palpitations that I used to get as a result. I still get them sometimes but not half as bad. A rapid pulse can also happen.
- Feeling Tired or lethargic. This is probably one of those that hits me the most to be honest. After a couple of hours I have to lie down, but then I am quite severely deficient at the moment, and having lots of iron.
- Looking Pale.
Other side effects include the following, although their occurrence varies.
- Headaches,
- Feeling weak,
- Depression
- Fragile bones that may lead to osteoporosis in the future
- Poor teeth
- Poor concentration, low energy and poor memory
- Leg cramps, particularly at night
- Dizziness
- Cravings for non edible things such as dirt, linked to Pica
- Slow healing time for cuts and wounds
- Night sweats
- Disturbances to vision
- Loss of appetite
- Acne
- Cold hands or feet
- Changes in the way that you taste
- Sore mouth
- Tinnitus
- White marks on nails
As you can tell there are many side effects and ones that vary a fair bit as well. In the long term serious complications can occur such as heart problems, hair loss and proneness to infections.
It's really important to make sure that you are eating well and eating enough iron. If you think you may be iron deficient then get down to your GP surgery because at first it is very treatable and reversible. As iron levels get lower it can be more difficult to totally reverse it and you may have to be on iron supplement medication for a while. The side effects of iron deficiency can be really bad if not treated well so make sure you know what your iron levels are.

Curtains & Drapes

I need drapes, hardware and window seat cushions. Does anyone out there have experience with this? There used to be a business on Ashby near College, but I think it's long gone. Not sure where to start on this. Has anyone had experience with the fabric store on Piedmont Ave for making drapes? Would be grateful for any recommendations. Thanks. Meredith
Am I asking for trouble if I color dye my kitchen curtains in my home washing machine? They are a light yellow and I would like something darker, maybe a terracotta color. I have a top loading Maytag washer about 5 years old. I don't want to ruin my washing machine and have dye color my laundry for months to come. What about my dryer? valerie
Hints - Leave the lid open while it agitates so the color doesn't drain immediately and you can go through the cycle a number of times
Rinse cycle once
Re-wash everything in regular wash cycle (unless it is delicate or something....)
All should be fine! marwoo
Hello we are looking for an experienced drapery person to help us create pinch pleat drapes for our bedroom. We have traverse rods installed. We have a pattern from older drapes but are looking to update fabric, color and possibly style. Please send examples when emailing. Or if you know of someone you can recommend. (IKEA, or other basic manufacturers will not work, we have traverse rods installed) We are looking for someone to come in and give us an estimate on labor, we will pay for materials. best lisa
I am trying to buy curtain rods for about 15 windows of various sizes and cannot seem to find any that I like that are also reasonably priced. I looked at Ikea already, Any other suggestions? gretchen
I've used expandable curtain rods for homemade curtains in the past but there is always a ridge in the middle where the fabric or curtain rings get caught. Any ideas on how to get/make a curtain rod that is smooth and doesn't catch on the curtains when opening and closing them? thanks a bunch
I'm not a ''shopper,'' and so have no clue about where to get this kind of thing, but I'm looking for good-quality curtains, white, on the sheer side, with interesting patterns. I've seen some with green dragonflies, and a pair with leaves in the Hugh Grant movie where he's the prime minister (I also have bad recall of movies (:). I didn't see anything at IKEA, and I don't really know where else to look. Any ideas appreciated. -Naked Windows
I am seeking advice on where to find reasonably priced curtains for my home (living room, bedrooms, kitchen). I had someone come out to give me an estimate on custom curtains and am a bit in sticker shock. I would appreciate any recommendations on stores or even custom vendors, as long as they are on the cheaper end. I checked out previous postings but they are quite dated. Thanks! Marjorie
For my son's bedroom, since it gets the most light in the afternoons, we chose to go with plantation shutters from Macy's of all places! They did a great job of installing! BTW, if you do buy from Smith and Noble, you'll have to install yourself! Good luck - I had fun picking fabrics/styles! Eileen
I am looking for a recommendation on where I could buy curtains / curtainholders that are suspended from the ceiling. We built a Container Store type corner shelving system in one of our rooms and we are looking to somehow close it off so that it can be used as a regular closet. I was thinking of curtains, but I'm not sure how to suspend it from the ceiling especially since it will have several corners (the shelves are L-shaped). The only thing I could think of are those 'curtain runners' that you sometimes find in motel rooms in front of the windows (I think they are attached to the ceiling), but I have no idea who would sell them. I was therefore wondering if anyone knew who would sell these or does anyone know of any other 'contraption' that could be used for this purpose ? (I don't want blinds that need to be pulled up and down). tired of doorless closet
Any recommendations for skilled and creative upholsterers of older furniture? What about someone who can make Roman shades and other types (fabric, not blinds)of window coverings? Christina
I want to hang curtains over two windows that join at the corner of the room, i.e, one window is on the north facing wall and the other's on the east facing wall and they connect right at the ne corner of the room. I wanted to get some kind of decorative curtain rod, but the ones I've found all have ornaments that extend beyond the window trim and therefore won't fit. Can anyone suggest where I might find an attractive rod that can turn a corner? alisa
Would like a recommendation for a place for getting drapes made or purchased for a family room sliding patio door. This area also gets a lot of direct evening sunlight so any suggestions will be most welcomed.
Are there things such as storage boxes specifically for drapes, and where can I buy them? Our drapes are about 8 feet tall. I guess it would be desireable to store them upright to minimize wrinkles? hana
FYI I priced the cleaning and got vastly different quotes--count the pleats; it is how they price them. I went with the lowest price which may have been a mistake---the drapes were old (and dirty) and came back shredded in places. Mary Ann

It's standard for us to do these comparative TL;DRs whenever we come back from traveling. It seems like we've done two of these in a row now: our last one was on China vs Korea, and this week we're talking about California vs Korea. Woot!
Of course, we're not talking about all of California in this video. We're just talking about our experiences and what we've noticed. Even our LA friends were surprised when we talked about how friendly everyone is to us! So, I'm sure your experiences won't line up with ours in many ways, and we'd love to hear where they differ!
There were a few things we didn't talk about in this video, though, so we'll mention them here:
I'll hear no complaints about it at all, thank you very much! I've seen shows in which people complain about the traffic. Anthony Bourdaine complained about it, and had a montage of people complaining about it. You have nothing to complain about! ORRRR…we were just exceptionally lucky. We never hit a single traffic jam. Things moved slower sometimes, but it was overall very smooth everywhere we drove. In Korea, the traffic sucks all day long. We just crawl to the studio going 20-30km an hour most of the time, even at 11PM at night on a Wednesday. It's always bad here. LA Traffic, not that bad at all!
Is it just me, or do fancy pants restaurants have single syllable names too often? FEED. LIME. GRUB. FRESH. Pfft. Too hoity toity. All of them with their minimalistic font and take on deconstructed reconstructed food. I want to hear a name like "Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles." HELLS YEAH! That's what I'll eat. I won't trust any restaurant with one syllable for a name, and I saw a few like that in LA.
Now, this might be a bit debatable, and I imagine if you're a patriotic Korean you might get defensive on this point, but – from our brief experiences – there seems to be a lot more of a creative spirit for cuisine in California than there is in Korea.
We went to so many restaurants that offered so many different new kinds of foods. Different flavour combinations, fusion, techniques. Just…whoa. In Korea, though, we don't really see that much diversity in cuisine. A sundubu is a sundubu is a sundubu. Where's a Mexican sundubu? Or an Indian naengmyeon? Most restaurants we walk by in Korea offer "Salad Steak Sandwich Pasta Wine Beer Coffee," in which they offer everything but do nothing really well.
Don't get us wrong: we love Korean food. You've seen us drool over it in many many videos. But sometimes we crave some diversity, something new, and Korea rarely offers anything new when it comes to food.
We were ultra inspired when we went to the Jubilee Project Conference, not so much by the conference itself, which was lovely, but by the freaking place it was being held in. We were in The Great Company. It's a gigantic and freaking GORGEOUS space where people can be creative. It's a reconstructed warehouse, and – holy hell – I felt like robbing the place. I don't mean grabbing stuff from there and running: I wanted to rob the place itself. Like, this is my place now, GTFO.
It's the studio of our dreams, really. We love the Eatyourkimchi Nasty Studio, don't get us wrong, but it's a bit small. It's big by Korean standards, but compared to the Great Company, it's puny. It had a giant kitchen, huge living room, presentation spaces, a recording studio, and just loads of room. We want something like that. We'd love to take a warehouse in Korea and build a bigger studio in it, where we can film our cooking segments, where we can have Korean bands that don't have music videos come in and shoot a live session, where we can have other YouTubers come in and shoot videos if they need a space. The Great Company: having a place like that is our next big dream. I think it's gonna happen. Our place, we're discovering, is falling apart. It's leaking all over (and monsoon season just hit, so we're gonna be in a lot of trouble) and it's got some other quirks to it that don't make it ideal.
Ok, the point here isn't to talk about our dream space and what we want to do in Korea. What I wanted to say is that we were in a few places in LA that were just gorgeous creative environments, and I don't see that in Korea too much. The real estate is just too small and the rent is too damn high. Maybe outside of Seoul it's doable, but in Seoul, in Hongdae especially, it's not really common, and we were really envious of the creative spaces in LA. Like, really really.
Alright I might have wandered a bit in that last point. Sorry! We just felt really inspired after leaving LA. The food was creative, the spaces were creative, and talking with different YouTubers there made us feel creative, and meeting our app developer made us feel creative, and we just came back to Korea inspired as hell! YAAAGGGHHHH!!!!! TIME TO MAKE MOAR MOVIES!
So…*cough* that's it for this week's TL;DR. Let us know what you think. If you're in Korea or LA, or if you've visited either, we'd love to hear your input and see how it aligns with ours :D
We've got a special guest appearance for next week's TL;DR: we shot that one in LA, so make sure you check it out. Click on this pretty button below to make sure you don't miss out!

Las Vegas… depends on the season. I was there in July and it was still 105F (45.5C) at 9pm. Less humidity = less heat capacity = heats up faster and cools down faster which means the desert can be toasty warm during the day and pretty cold at night, depending on the time of year. :3
So sad I couldn't go to the LiNK Summit even though I go to Pepperdine.. T__T
Also, the weather was definitely a bit chillier during June and July, and even more so since Malibu and LA are closer to the ocean than where I live.
Glad you two enjoyed SoCal! :)
Hello!! Miriam here, you might remember me from my K-indie video request (Byul.org)!
While watching the video for this TL;DR and reading the blog post, I couldn't keep myself from commenting on my lovely home, California. I've read through most of the comments, and everyone pretty much nailed it, but I have a few things to add.
Creative spaces: I really wanted to comment about this! I couldn't sit still when i was reading this part of your blog post! I think what you guys are doing in Korea is amazing, and to hear that you have bigger dreams for your project is great!
I am a creative and love to hear about companies and organizations that help designers, artists, creative thinkers, musicians, etc. in any way. It really makes me happy! I wish I was in Korea and could contribute. I would love to see this become a reality!
All I could think of, as far as a way to help, was to recommend creative spaces in San Francisco for inspiration. Just to name a few, check out The Glint, WorkshopSF, and Makeshift Society.
One last word:
Not that I'm bias or anything buuuuut, next time your in CA check out San Francisco. Pack a jacket, bring a scarf, and comfy walking shoes. There is tones to see, eat, and learn (the food!!! Oh the FOOD!). A Great resource for your next visit is the blog,
The Blod Italic. It's full of great info, mostly about San Francisco but also includes the Bay Area (Norcal) and some Socal. So much California knowledge!
VERY last thing…. LIVING ROOM CONCERTS! Yup, you read it correctly! Don't know if you have heard of this beautiful phenomenon, but it's a very magical event, and I think it would be a great way to promote K-indie bands. The Bold Italic, I mentioned above, has a great blog post about three organizations that curate these musical-speakeasy events worldwide!!!
I hope this was helpful and inspiring :)
Thanks for all the videos and blog posts. You all are rockstars!
The portion size thing is an American thing, I think. I'm nowhere near the west coast (Cleveland gal here!) but the waffle size you mention sounds like a normal waffle to me… :/
So glad people were nice and friendly! I've noticed that I've never really run into the
nasty/snobby city people" trope when visiting NYC/DC/Chicago.
Also, I evidently need to move to Korea. Small talk is my kryptonite.
Haha I don't think large portions are a California thing, I think that's like…an America thing. The portions at that breakfast restaurant sounded the same as restaurants in the midwest where I'm from. Waffles in Korea don't cut it for me!!! They're like the size of a cookie!!! I miss big waffles that take up the whole plate ㅠ_ㅠ
I'm glad you guise had a great time in Cali! I live in Los Angeles and it's nice to hear what you think about us. ^.^ You guise made me laugh when you talked about small-talk and how awkward it was. I know how you feel though at least. I'm a pretty shy person and when I go out in public, some random people come up to me and comment about my teal colored hair. I usually just smile and laugh at the person and walk away as soon as I can. Traffic, traffic, traffic. You both are just plain lucky, but that's cool! Eek! Sorry about those food proportions! I know they are crazy, especially at places like Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles! By the way, when you two went to Roscoe's, did you go to Randy's Donuts? A beach with tar? Wow. I've actually never heard that. And cold weather? Double wow. Next time the both of you visit
California (hopefully soon), you should go to Huntington or Seal Beach. No tar in the sand, perfect beach Summer weather, and some semi-stereotypes. I honestly never thought our buildings and food to ever be creative or inspiring, but that's great you guise did!
Most people are friendly most are not. It's like that anywhere you go really or you two just make people nice by just be near them.
That sounds pretty logical. I wonder what types of things I would compare between Korea and California. HRRRRMMMMM. A wish of mine is to travel to South Korea and Japan. It would be awesome to meet the EYK family! Yup. Proud to be a Nasty!!!! :D
Well the portion size is totally a problem all over America!!! I think it is a huge contributing factor in the over weightiness that is exploding in America. My man and I usually try to split food when we go out bc everywhere gives you soooooo much!!! Its crazy! The weather is a lot chillier bc of no humity and its the same for like colorado and Arizona/New Mexico . they have really warm months but most of the year is way cooler than you expect!!! love u guys xoxo
Truth! I live in a semi-arid climate–in regular people speak that means it is desert-y but usually not quite. Dry, little to no humidity, but generally quite nice year-round the closer you are to the coast.
Never encountered a genuine hand-shaker before! With any big city you see a range of personalities. I can't recall anybody being incredibly rude (except for the driver who cut me off two days ago).
LA freeways must be avoided at all costs. LA downtown should be avoided, too. Ain't nobody got time for that.
I love how it was a shock that California is colder than imagined. I live in San Francisco and my mother is a part of a program that hosts international students that want to learn English at a university here. Just about the first thing everyone does when they arrive is complain about the cold then go out to shop for a jacket.
When I've gone to California for family vacations, it wasn't so much L.A., but the San Francisco/Lake Tahoe area. I do remember packing sweatshirts because even in the summer, San Francisco could get a bit chilly. I don't really remember huge portions of food (although I can imagine) but I do remember being out to dinner with my parents at a restaurant. Whenever the waiter noticed my bread plate was empty, they'd put a new roll on it. After maybe the second time that happened, my dad decided that we had enough bread and we had to turn over/hide our bread plate so they wouldn't give us another one.
TL;DR request:
I saw your recent Twitter post ( http://bit.ly/1qTvJCm ) regarding black face on Korean TV. As a person of Korean descent who was born and raised in the States, it makes me incredibly uncomfortable watching shows (Korean or American) that rely on forms of cultural insensitivity for a laugh. I know it's a touchy subject, and you probably like keeping things on the lighter side, but as foreigners living in Korea, how do you feel seeings things like black face in Korean media, things that would be considered totally not okay in your native countries? And does it seem like any shows or networks are making efforts to stop, especially considering increasing immigrant populations in the country and global broadcast of their shows?
First, ya'll are amaze balls and I love your blog! Second, as a person who has lived all over the US ( Atlanta, NYC, Seattle, the Bay Area, etc.,) people are definitely great at small talk/chit-chat on the West Coast. I think it comes from the more laid-back, chill lifestyle. But I'd have to say people in the South are far more friendly in a genuine way. In the South, you can make new friends in 5 seconds flat as long as you have even one ting in common to talk about.
California by far has the best overall weather though. Korea sounds like Georgia, and that equals heat and humidity. YUCK!
Keep on being awesome!
You guys are so cute! But why didn't you two check the weather in California before packing? It may just be the Texan in me talking, but California is pretty chilly to me. Since I have relatives there, I visit a lot and always make sure to bring sweaters and hoodies!
Also, about the cold beach water, didn't you know that California shares ocean water with Alaska? At least that's what my Californian cousin told me.
I can't wait for your next videos!
Can you guys do a TL;DR on sasaeng fans plzzzzz…….Oh almost forgot….you soooo nastyyy
Near where I study, there's a salad bar/restaurant called The Slug and Lettuce, which I don't think is the most confidence-inspiring name….
Roscoe's Chicken and Waffles DOES have huge portion sizes, but if you go you're supposed to know that. Portion sizes at most restaurants tend to be more than you can eat/enough that you'll be REALLY DAMN FULL at the end.
In terms of being polite – it really depends on where you are. Judging from the map of where you guys were for FroYo and that there's a Roscoe's in Pasadena, you were in one of the nicer parts of town that also tends to be primarily caucasian so you do have a lot more of a focus on being polite, and on customer service. If you were to go to more business – oriented, or more Asian areas, such as KTown or the San Gabriel Valley, customer service is definitely not as good as you would get somewhere in Pasadena or Westside. Same honestly applies to small talk.
For the weather, you guys really arrived at a bad time. The joke is that summer doesn't REALLY start in California until July, and the summer months are actually July – mid-October. June is honestly more spring-like, with cloudy mornings that clear up in the afternoon and weather that doesn't really go up past 85, and will typically stay around a 75 high or so. (In other words, nice weather). However, the night temperatures really do drop, and we often have as much as a 30 degree (Fahrenheit) swing in temperature from night to day. It'll easily be 90+ during the daytime, and it'll drop very rapidly to 60 or 70 a few hours after sunset, so a lot of us get into the habit of carrying a thin sweater or light jacket around while we wear shorts and t-shirts or tank tops during the day.
LA Traffic is bad compared to the rest of the West Coast, and probably the rest of the U.S. apart from New York, but compared to any major Asian city, PARTICULARLY Seoul or Beijing, and it's not contest. Traffic is just so much worse in Asia because the population density is something like a billion times higher, BUT we do get something approaching Gangnam-level traffic on a few freeways during the middle of rush hour, but it's usually a solid 30-60 kmh on most streets.
Honestly, a lot of the restaurant names in LA can sound pretentious – but don't let that deceive you. Yes, the food that they charge costs a bit more than you'd find at say, Roscoe's or the Kogi Taco Truck, but it's still damned good. A few prime examples are Pot, which is a Koreatown restaurant run by the same chef who created the Kogi Truck, and Animal, which never has a fixed menu and always has something creative in the mix (Fried Pigs Ears, Cheese Curds and Gravy on Fries). The creativity in LA isn't just limited to the filming and architecture – it extends to the food culture as well. On the other side of things, we certainly have more than our share of Hole-in-the-wall soul food places, such as "Pollo a la Brasa" and "Borneo Kalimantan Cuisine", to name a few. A lot of the places in LA really like to create Southern California takes on various cuisines, ranging from Mexican to Italian to Chinese and everything in-between. It's essentially an LA remix of a classic foreign dish so that it's more palatable to us SoCal natives and is easier to obtain the ingredients for. Also, if you ever want something creative and you're back in the LA/Pasadena area, stop by Mix n' Munch in South Pasadena. In their menu, amongst other eclectic items, is a nutella and strawberry sandwich. Don't question. Just eat. It works. It is good. You will enjoy.
In terms of creative spaces – the entire damn Hollywood industry, and many, many independent filmmakers and YouTubers ARE based in California, after all. It's only proper that we have amazing studios. USC's School of Cinematic Arts is only a small division of USC (Population/student body representation wise) and still has top-of-the-line studios (4 or 5 of them, actually). Not to mention, there are lots of independent filmmakers from USC, Chapman, UCLA and other local film programs that have low budgets and get very creative with the spaces they use as studios, and as they work their way up the networking ladder that is the film business, they bring that same creativity in designing and choosing studios to work in. This kind of cutting edge mentality also exists in the Westside particularly, which is known for having lots of tech firms that really loves this casual, creative environment to think and work in.
ANYWAYS, that got REALLY long REALLY fast, but as somebody who knows and loves SoCal, I felt the urge to comment on essentially everything you guys talked about. – Oh, and about the tar? If you guys were near the Brea Tar Pits, that might of been an issue, LA does have a few random tar pits here and there, not sure if there are any by the beach. Otherwise, probably some sort of truck had an accident and just spilled tar, that's almost never an issue at the beaches here.
I grew up in Oregon (so not too terribly far from California), but I definitely noticed a similar kind of cultural difference when I moved to Norway. It's not that people there don't make small talk, but the thing that struck me was the difference in giving complements. Generally speaking, I think people in the US are comfortable giving out compliments to others, even people who are complete strangers. I can't even count how many times I've gotten compliments I've gotten in the course of my life in the US from complete strangers on my hair, or some article of clothing, etc. but in Norway, I know exactly how many times I've received a compliment from a stranger, or even witnessed a compliment being given to a stranger: 0. And when I've given compliments to complete strangers while in Norway, they always look kind of shocked (pleasantly shocked, but shocked nonetheless). I'm not sure if it's a cultural thing or just the specific people I've encountered (any Norwegians want to weigh in?), but it seemed in keeping with Martina's comment about getting compliments on her hair in CA. And I agree, the Pacific Ocean is SO cold!!
I am glad you liked California guys :) I've lived here my entire life (17 years)–I am definitely a California girl! Honestly I was SUPER SURPRISED by your experience. THE TAR? I have never had that happen to me EVER. I have never even hear of ANYONE having that issue but I live in the San Francisco area. Even so, I know LA and Southern California like the back of my hand–weird. But it's kinda true that LA beaches are a little dirtier (because they are so popular and pollution) than some of the ones up north like Santa Barbara and San Luis Obispo.
I was also shocked that people were so nice to you guys because I have always thought California was a bit on the rude side (we are not all mean but I wouldn't say we're overly friendly to everyone). I am glad you guys ran into some nice people.
I agree our weather is cool XD—I <3 my state :D!
Although I currently live in Texas (TX), USA, I was born in California (CA) and lived there until I was 13. Also, I still have family there. We just got back from a week and a half trip to CA by car in fact. We saw family and went to some of the common tourist stops. The heat in Los Angeles (LA) is different from in TX, but is just as annoying. The air conditioning in the places we went seemed to be broken or set way to high in CA. Drivers are pretty crazy in most places, but CA drivers are usually worse than TX drivers unless it is in bad weather when they all are really bad.
The Pacific Ocean in CA is much, much colder than the Gulf in TX, and the sand is different. In CA, you sink into the sand more. The tar you were having trouble with is from all of the oil rigs off the coast. Also, the roads are made of tar in many cases as well, at least they were when I was young. Northern CA tends to be colder than Southern CA. Nights tend to be cooler because of either the desert or ocean breezes.
I traveled to California in last october and the weather was amazingly nice for that time of the year! Of course we couldn't swim but it was hot enough to wear dresses :D And the beach were pretty clean I didn't saw any tar ! I guess you weren't lucky on that time :/ And about driving I was truly afraid on the highway because most of the time no one was using their turn signal :( But people were really friendly and open! I also have made a lot of small talks with sellers, and passerby ^^ But about the food amount, to me it was normal. Actually Mcdonald's burgers were smaller than the ones in France ! >xx< Please continue your super videos which have made me discover so many things about Korea :D Et pleins de bisous ^v^
Real talk, I think people in America, generally, are polite. Not especially polite or overly polite. Not like Japan. But the issue is, people in Korea are so coarse and a little rude that Simon and Martina have just become accustomed to that. lol! One of the things that shocked me about living here is how friggin' CUT THROAT everyone is! Like, in the year I have been here, I can count on ONE hand the number of times someone actually said "sorry" or "excuse me" after slamming into me on the sidewalk, stepping on my foot, shoving me aside on the bus/subway, and so on. I went to Japan for a weekend and was in awe when a lady said "sumimasen" just to look at some juice next to me in a convenience store! I literally stood there for 3 mins with stars in my eyes with gratitude. haha!
Korea is just rough and ya'll have gotten used to that.
Speaking as a northern German who's been to America quite a lot I don't like the small-talk and chit-chat in America. Sometimes I even find the friendliness obviously fake and I honestly feel uncomfortable telling the cashier about my plans for the day. There's just no reason for it. People at home are not unfriendly or anything, we just like to keep things to a minimum. My mom (from southern Germany) really enjoyed staying in Canada for some time and went to Superstore even more than once a day because she enjoyed people talking to her. I guess it's just personal preference as to how much small talk you enjoy having ;)
here's my bit about small talk that i thought you guys might find interesting. in japan, most people don't do it either, though it doesn't seem to be as bad as what you've described about korea. and especially being a foreigner, people might randomly come up to you and ask you where you're from. but yeah, nobody would comment about your hair or shorts. HOWEVER, in stores and such, there is zero small talk. in fact, if you go to a store, you'll hear the staff count your things as they scan them (which is really pointless and annoying) and i was told that this is so that you don't talk to them as they work!!! i was really surprised when i found out. but yeah, usually no small talk. (unless you are in a clothing store, where the sales girls will flip over backwards to be friendly to you so you buy more stuff) i am always surprised when i go back home to canada and a waitress in the restaurant or cashier in a store will just start randomly chatting to me about my nails or how cute my bag is. i think it's nice though!!
About the tar on the beach.. that's not "normal". Meaning, it's not a natural occurrence. I grew up on the Gulf Coast (Houston) and frequented the beaches. That tar is what's left over from past oil spills in the ocean/Gulf that eventually makes it way to shore. I'm sure you've seen the news in the past when a spill happens, and efforts are deployed for cleanup, including the cleaning of birds (using original Dawn for soap).
Oh.. and about desert living.. so I grew up in Houston (hot/humid most the year). I moved to Albuquerque in 2006, and had to adjust to desert climates–dry/low humidity (normally around 10%-15%, as opposed to Houston which is around 80%-90%). The first thing I noticed is that we don't need to use coasters in ABQ… if you have a glass of ice water or iced tea sitting on the table, it doesn't "sweat" (condensate), because the air is do dry here. Also, we rarely sweat–unless you're doing something really physical. But just walking around, your clothes won't stick to you. So, yes, during the day, if you're in the sun, it is intense (you fell HOT), but in the shade, it's feels 20 degrees cooler, and the nights are cool (highs around mid-90's, lows in mid 60's during the summer months).
Lol we Mexicans take soccer very seriously (ever since Mexico was eliminated from the World Cup my mom has banned even mentioning soccer in our house NO ERA PENAL!)so having to soccer fans get in a fight one being a Mexican fan isn't very surprising.
As for the beaches, I have never been to Playa Del Rey, but any other beach I have gone to (Venice, Long Beach, Santa Monica, most beaches in the San Diego area) have never had tar on them. Maybe trash and seaweed but never tar, that is actually the first time I heard of it. You also probably picked a cold day to go to the beach because around this time of year it's good weather to go to the beach for most days. However, California weather is really bipolar. I live in Palm Springs and it's super hot all day, but if I drive for 2 hours to LA it's so fresh from the sea breeze. But the heat does not compare to Arizona where I used to live. Word of advice: if you're gonna go to a city right by the coast it's gonna be fresh and breezy during the day, but freezing at night.
People in California are very chatty. You could be buying some groceries and you will end up telling the cashier about your plans in the weekend. People can be nice here but you'll always encounter a meanie every now and then.
You guys should visit California again sometime soon!

Hello there watermelon beans!
I just created my account and I love you guys. Hey, why don't you plan a trip to Miami, Florida? Yeah! This is a place with a lot of cultural diversity…and delicious food!
Anyways, keep posting new things and thanks for being South Korea's Kimchi Advisors!
So, I have a question for you guys: Were you filming when the fro-yo guy was being super-helpful? Not that I have been in a Cali Fro-yo (I'm a cynical New Yorker; east, east baby!). I have, however worked at a number of eateries during my collage days and I know that my already excellent customer service would definitely have gotten even more fabulous if someone walked in with a camera. "Sorry I have to clean the bar" may translate to "Don't film this yet!" Also, I think friendliness in America is definitely region-based, like West, vs. Midwest, vs. South, Vs. 'North'/East, vs. New England. In New York, we like to be left alone and will generally 'ignore' people because we like to be left alone ourselves and it can sometimes feel annoying/rude if someone talks to you! Not all the time, but it seems like a big chunk of the time.
Yah, and as far as portion sizes go, they are big pretty much everywhere in the US! Now you know why we have such an obesity problem . . .
I also have a Tl;DR question for you related to that: Do Korean restaurants let you take home leftover food? Do they just have more-reasonalbe sized portions that they expect you to finish?
Also, thanks to you, the majority of Korean words that I know are all food words . . . and I may or may not make Jajangmyeon and dokbokki on a regular basis . . . and I might have learned Hangul . . . and developed a love for Kimchi. So, anyway THANKS GUYSE!
Well you should come to Mediterranean for the best cuisine in the world and for the great hospitality.
Well now I noticed that this sounds like one of those cheesy tourism brochure lines :D
Sometimes those lines work because they're true!
I almost forgot you guys are Canadian omg. Chicken and Waffles is literally the most normal thing for me because I live in the South idk. Here in Texas people are polite yet ignorant and if you go in to small talk they'll normally say at least one offensive thing. It's hot as hell in the summer (but not like Arizona) and freaking freezing in the winter (compared to the heat in the summer) and our transitioning seasons are almost non-existent. I also never realized our portion sizes (?) Like they're just normal to me I guess.
UGH small talk! I need to move to Korea, stat! It was hilarious to watch you guy relive your experiences. I used to dye my hair pink or purple or blue, and people would stop me ALL the time to ask about it. I'm not shy or anything, I just usually don't want to talk to people about nothing. I've always been like that, so I'm the odd one out.
I live in Orange County, so just south of LA- I can get there in an hour or so. I think people in LA and even OC are VERY nice. People in California are much happier overall than people in other parts of the US (that I have lived in or been to). I am originally from Indiana and people are kinda rude and depressed. Californians live in California, what do they have to be mad about (joking!).
And lastly, portion sizes are like that across the US, guys. It's part of the reason this country has such a problem with obesity levels. I order half sizes of things whenever I can, and plan to have leftovers!
Small talk in the Midwest is also very common:]
So sad I missed you guise! Funnily enough, though, the reason I wasn't in California was because I was visiting Korea, and I definitely noticed a lot of the same differences. For example, small talk: my mom, having lived in California for a while, was trying to have a conversation with the lady making our (donkatsu!!!) kimbap, but the lady would only give one-word answers and just kept asking us to sit down. On the other hand, in California (like you experienced) people will initiate conversations randomly all the time. The "California-is-so-warm-all-the-time" thing is definitely not true. When I arrived home I was blown away by how cold it was–-at least compared to Korea. "Food-creativity" is abundant here. There's a Indian-Mexican fusion restaurant near where I live. I've also seen Korean-Mexican food trucks, among many other combinations. Lastly, yes, portion sizes here are way too freaking big. Wow. Glad you enjoyed your stay in California!
Lots of oil under high pressure off the coast of California. Stuff just leaks out like crazy. Locals keep begging the oil companies to come in and pump the stuff out but the environmentalists block all attempts even though the result would be less oil in the water.
Whatttt? It's so hot here in California I feel like! But while it is true that California does have some desert-ish weather, it's super mild since it's so close to the ocean and all that water acts like a buffer; it doesn't get super hot in the day and then super hot at night, nothing like Arizona, Nevada, or Colorado. Las Vegas is way more in-land so the effects of the ocean would be less than L.A. near the coast.
West Coast Best Coast! (Had to say it). I also have to say as someone from West Coast, we tend to be much friendlier than East Coast USA. Small talk… I mean, it's just friendly. Calling it "small talk" almost has the connotation that it's shallow/superficial/not genuine… which is not the case. And man, California has NOTHING on Hawaii (where I lived growing up). Hawaii is a much more friendly place. I am always surprised going back to mainland (Oregon and Washington usually) when people DON'T chat with every single person they meet… so if California was a lot for you, I'm now picturing Korea as super cold/un-friendly (I don't know if that's fair, but that's the context I have… where do you make friends if you don't chat with smiling strangers in a froyo shop?). In Hawaii we kiss to say hello (even the first time you meet), the friend of my friend is my new friend, and we address each other in family terms – even a stranger would be "Aunty" or "Uncle" (growing up I had a hard time keeping track of who was biological family and who was just close friends we'd absorbed into the family functions). If somebody is helping you or waiting with you, such as a gas station attendant, or a fellow customer waiting in a line for example, of course you would ask them how their day is going and chat about sports or what you'll be cooking this summer at cookouts. Something to keep in mind if you ever come visit Hawaii!
Weather in California is really nice. Lived in Cali my whole life and have experienced the nice warm-cool weather of the central coast and the extreme heat the San Fernando Valley can bring. As for beach weather..yes the beach is cold and windy LOL If you want a really nice beach day you would have to go on a day where its 90+ F (On these days you see a lot of shirtless-ness of guys jogging around) As for the tar..I have never experienced that, but then again I dont know if its normal for Playa Del Rey..I've never been to that beach (Not much of a beach goer).
For the customer service, well be glad you had someone that was nice! But, yeah usually people are nice and are willing to help you if you ask for the help :D And yes the portion sizes are big here..I wouldn't know because I've only traveled to Mexico and the portion sizes seem the same LOL But I have heard that in other countries the portion sizes are smaller (Guess us nasties thought you knew already xP)
What's surprising is the small talk..I see that as normal, but then again I am Mexican-American and both cultures are quite social. But I see what you mean by it..I have a Korean friend and he isn't used to the "American ways" and his small talk is improving, before he would isolate himself from everyone. Guess he finally figured out that he cannot get away and hangs around the small talk now. Haha.
I also think that LA traffic is not bad..but then again I don't drive much on the freeway because I dont have too. The only bad traffic you can get all really depends on the time and which freeway you're taking. If you're from LA you know to stay away from the 5, 405, and 101 freeway during rush hours.
Looks like you had a lot of fun in LA!! Hopefully next time you're in LA again, I won't be busy so I can see you guys!! I didn't even know there was a meet-up >.<
I'm pretty sure California cold isn't actually all that cold lol. I live in Seattle, Washington and whenever I meet someone from Cali, they always complain about how cold it is here when it's not even cold out for me. If you guys ever come to the red states, specifically Washington state or Oregon, be prepared for the weather! My cousin from Cali visited and what's considered hot here was cold for her.
It's the same for where I live, Missoula MT, lately its been hot but usually its around 60-75 degrees and if its around 50 you see people walking around in shorts and muscle tees. People from Cali or southern states come and complain about the cold -.-
Yeah, that's right. It's not cold like Toronto -40 cold. It was just colder than what we had planned for :D
So since Koreans don't use small talk, how are you supposed to act towards an employee when you are at a restaurant or store? Sorry if this seems like a dumb question but I'm from Upstate New York and all we do is small talk.
Well, you pretty much order and have done with it. The conversations like:
"Over here!"
"Two kimbaps and one soup, please"
And…there you go.
I lived basically everywhere in California! From LA to San Diego to San Fran and now I live in a small town ^^ California, from my experience, is the same overall. Nice people and huge amounts of creativity! However the weather is really different from where you live. The beaches are typically colder because of the sea breeze while if you are in the inner parts of CA it is hot as hell! The weather is overall amazing though. The portion sizes are huge! Typically my friends and family has never finished their plate by themselves because the food is meant to be taken home as leftovers. Well for the people around me that is XD but please come back! I would love it if you guys come visit us!

|Acute cholecystitis with Listeria monocytogenes.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 23019807 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|Listeriosis, an opportunistic food-borne disease caused by Listeria monocytogenes, is infrequent and occurs preferentially in patients at the extremes of age, during pregnancy or in immunocompromised hosts. Most common manifestations are maternofoetal and neonatal infections, severe invasive presentations such as bacteraemia with or without central nervous system symptoms occuring preferentially in immunosuppressed patients and self-limited gastro-enteritis affecting healthy individuals. Exceptionally, focal infections such as cholecystitis are described. We report here a case of acute cholecystitis caused by Listeria monocytogenes in an 82-year-old woman. Thanks to a successful treatment: cholecystectomy and antimicrobial therapy (amoxicillin plus clavulanic acid), the patient soon recovered. This case-report provides an opportunity to review the current literature concerning the association of Listeria monocytogenes and cholecystitis.

WELLFLEET — Town meeting decided Monday night that, after a half-century, it is time to update the main entrance to their town. The testimony was long and emotional from residents who had witnessed accidents or had relatives or friends injured and killed at the intersection of Main Street and Route 6.
Berta Bruinooge, chairwoman of the Board of Selectmen, recalled when she worked at a nearby bank in the 1990s and witnessed the death of two women who were hit by a truck at the intersection.
Avid cyclist Gary Joseph said there was no way to cross the highway in the immediate vicinity of the intersection.
Last August, 16 year-old Nauset Regional High School student Miles Tibbetts was killed while attempting to cross Route 6 on his bicycle about a half-mile south of Main Street.
Assistant Town Administrator Timothy King said the signal lights are so old it is impossible to find parts or improve their functions, and there are no real provisions for pedestrians or bicycles in the layout of the intersection.
"This is an essential safety project for the town of Wellfleet," Bruinooge said.
Voters approved $200,000 in engineering and design costs that will get the project started, with an anticipated construction date of 2018. Federal and state grant money will pay for the construction and any land costs if voters at the annual town election May 5 also approve the debt exclusion required to borrow the $200,000.
Town meeting Monday also approved a total municipal budget of more than $19 million. The town's operating budget of $15.3 million rose by less than 2 percent.
In a town famous for artists and writers, and proud of its historic buildings, it was an easy bet that a request for funding to preserve what many believe is an architectural gem would pass. It did, but not without some pushback from those who questioned spending taxpayer money on a home in an isolated location that relatively few would see.
Peter McMahon of the Cape Cod Modern House Trust argued that the Weidlinger House, located in the woods of the Cape Cod National Seashore, needs $40,000 in Community Preservation Act funding to help finish restoration work. It would be the third such home his group will have restored using private and public funding. The trust represents the work of some of the world's finest modern architects.
"These houses are famous all over the world," artist Helen Miranda Wilson said. "People come here in the off-season, not to go to our beaches, but to see this kind of thing. I think they are beautiful and should be fixed and used to make us famous in another way."
Voters also approved proposals to: establish an enterprise fund to pay for future dredging and capital improvements at the town marina; complete road repairs totaling $250,000; make a $200,000 contribution toward a town employee retirement trust fund to begin offsetting an unfunded liability some estimated at $20 million by 2020; use $240,000 in Community Preservation Act funds to help rehabilitate the Baker's Field tennis courts; spend $434,000 to replace part of the Wellfleet Elementary School roof, although the actual cost after grants and other funding would be $176,000; use a portion of the $2.4 million for the Nauset Regional School District to replace a portion of the middle school roof, at what was estimated to be around $183,000 for Wellfleet.
Seven Proposition 2� debt exclusion questions are on the town election ballot.

Term limits might help to stop self-serving politicsOctober 7, 2013 12:00 AM
Share with others:
What a hypocritical bunch of Americans we have elected to devise laws and guide our great country. It doesn't matter whether their political persuasion is Democrat or Republican. They all are of the same ilk, period. They do what is best for them, and we the people have to go along for the ride.
Is there an answer for all of this? You bet. Term limits for all offices, and any laws they produce should have them first in line to reap the fruits of their labor -- laws that they profess are good for all of us.
From the days this great country was founded, the intent of the framers of our Constitution was that elected citizens should take part and then return to their civilian lives. In their view, politics was never meant to be a lifetime vocation.

2.4 percent GDP growth in 4Q
Share This
2.4 percent GDP growth in 4Q
March 3, 2014 – The second estimate for fourth-quarter gross domestic product growth was revised downward to a gain of 2.4 percent due in part to a smaller estimate of personal consumption, according to NAFCU Chief Economist and Director of Research David Carrier.
This followed 4.1 percent growth in the third quarter.
"Although the figure for overall GDP was revised downward, it evidenced solid growth and revealed that the economy is gathering steam," Carrier said analyzing data from the Bureau of Economic Analysis for a NAFCU
Macro Data Flash report
. "Fourth-quarter growth was driven by personal consumption, investment and exports, which should lead to further gains."
Also, the 4Q second estimate showed residential investment down 8.7 percent, nonresidential investment up 7.3 percent, consumer spending up 2.6 percent and government spending down 5.6 percent.
Core personal consumption expenditure inflation (excluding food and energy), the Fed's key inflation metric, decreased from 1.4 percent in the third quarter to 1.3 percent in the fourth quarter. Overall PCE inflation decreased from 1.9 percent in the third quarter to 1 percent in the fourth quarter.
"Overall, the economy expanded at 1.9 percent in 2013," Carrier said. "The economy is expected to improve over the next year as the labor market improves and fiscal headwinds subside."

At a recent meeting of the Louisiana Chapter of the Automatic Fire Alarm association, State Fire Marshal Butch Browning spoke about how knee jerk reactions that change the codes and standards intended to protect our children can inadvertently and negatively impact fire and safety considerations.
Chief Browning went on to say that common sense tells us that there is never a one size fits all.
Consider today's tendency to create islands of safety where bad guys are denied entry or the reaction to "lock down" when unauthorized entry occurs. Simple enough logic in its pure form, but what happens when the intrusion results in a fire. Do the teachers and students stay locked down or attempt escape?
Have any of you read stories of where "burglar bars" were installed on homes that ultimately became a death trap? How many times have we read about emergency exits that were blocked and people died trying to escape?
The intent here is not to scare, but to remind everyone that knee jerk reactions can sometimes create answers that are problematic.
The issue of school safety is not a static thing and needs to be addressed on a continuing basis; but we can't forget that implementation without due consideration can be just as bad as lengthy discussions by a bureaucratic mindset that is more interested in getting their picture taken and feathering their political nest (agenda) than accomplishing any meaningful achievement.
The topic here is not about the inefficiency and ineffectiveness of government, but to open eyes to the fact that few things in life are simple. One single issue can and does send ripples that touch us all.

I've almost developed a level of tolerance for the stupidity coming out of Congress, but now it's reached an almost suicidal level and it's really ticking me off. They want to cut our armed forces at a time when terrorist activities and recruitment are increasing alarmingly. And when criminal activity is increasing everywhere in this country.
The United States spent trillions on foreign aid in 2013. What exactly did that get us? When will we quit trying to buy friends? It doesn't work.
We could have the military help our overworked police and security agents attack crime in this country. Instead, we send our young men and women to fight in foreign countries - to die or be maimed or traumatized, and then we pat ourselves on the back because we can provide them with the best in medical and psychiatric care.
Here's a thought: Don't get into any more wars! It is a shame that people in America go hungry or homeless and cannot get jobs. It is more of a shame that veterans cannot get jobs.

RABBS CREEK. Rabbs Creek rises in southern Lee County (at 30°11' N, 97°03' W) west-southwest of Giddings and runs south for about 24½ miles, passing into Fayette County before reaching its mouth (at 29°58' N, 96°55' W) on the Colorado River, northwest of La Grange. The creek is a major tributary of the Colorado and has at least ten named tributaries of its own. It passes through terrain surfaced by shallow, highly erodible topsoils of sand and sandy loam, with subsoils of heavy clay and clay mixed with gravel. Land along the stream is marginal for most agricultural purposes, and though it has produced good crops of corn, it is now used primarily for grazing and hay production. The flat lands along Rabbs Creek are prone to flooding, and there are many natural wide spots used for stock watering. Expanded oil extraction in the vicinity during the 1980s increased the potential for pollution from that source. Rabbs Creek was named for William Rabb, who settled in the area with his extended family sometime before Texas independence. As a part of his commitment to Stephen F. Austin's colony, he constructed on the creek the first gristmill in what is now Fayette County. The grinding stones were shipped from Scotland, and the mill works came from New Orleans.

Many of you are probably wondering the same thing that I am wondering... Where is this snow that has been talked about so much?!?!?!? It's coming and I expect it to be here soon!
At the time of this post... around noon Sunday.... The snow is just now really developing on the back side of this system. The wrap around moisture has been the concern the whole time. Remember... the snowfall forecast map I have posted a couple fo times this weekend runs THROUGH TUESDAY. The moisture feed will be here for the next couple of days.
Temps didn't catch up fast enough to change the rain to snow as the front plowed through KY.
Wind Chill
Snowfall forecast still looks on track! With some modifications.
Rather than topping out in each range... I think most of us will fall somewhere in the middle of the range. Some areas will still max out.
I'll have another update later!
