Carry two bikes without a hitch.
Forget hauling bikes in a truck bed or hitch-mounted rack with the sleekly designed Yakima KingJoe Pro 2 Bike Rack. This trunk/hatch-mounted rack features a QuickTrigger II hub system for easy installation and fitment with a wide variety of vehicles, ranging from sedans to hatchbacks and SUVs. Oversized padded feet and coated metal buckles prevent unsightly scratches on your vehicle, while included glass hooks fit a wide variety of hatchbacks, wagons, and SUVs.
The rack's StableCradles safely carry two of your favorite bikes within their narrow arm design and secure-fastening rubber straps. In the event that you need to carry a bike with a sloping top tube or minimal clearance (i.e. beach cruisers and rear-suspension mountain bikes), Yakima offers a separate Tube Top that secures under the seatpost clamp and stem. Moreover, you'll find the bike-carrying arms conveniently fold-up when you're not using the rack, remedying clearance issues when you're backing up and parking with the rack attached. As if that's not enough, Yakima included a built-in bottle opener for enjoying a few beverages with friends after your ride.

This rack is great, gets the job done and keep the bikes safe. It for sure does not fit all mountain bikes so be careful buying this I ride a Santa Cruz Superlite and there is no way to fandangle my bike to fit on this thing. On the other hand, my husband rides a Tallboy and his bike fits great.
Hi Jocie,
If your full-suspension frome does not have space for the arms of this rack to go through, pick up the Top Tube Frame adapter:
It goes under the stem and saddle and makes it easy to hang the bike from the rack.
Great Rack!
I just got home from a 2k+ mile road trip from Chicago to New Orleans, with this bike rack strapped to the back of a 2012 Ford Escape rental car (SUV Crossover). Rack held up strong, i traveled with 1 road bike mounted. No Flapping, bouncing, or any issues.
This is the first bike rack i've ever owned, it mounted up quickly and did no damage to the Escape. I will be putting this on my wife's Subaru Forester soon!
Free shipping and excellent customer service from Back Country, you can't beat it.

The rack has a weight limit of 30lbs per bike. So your bikes are too heavy.
From the Yakima website, this rack will take bikes up to 45 lbs. The KingJoe Pro 3 will take bikes up to 30 lbs. Looks like either 2 or 3 bike version will accommodate 90 lbs. total.

This one works on most SUVs, so it should be fine on there. I also think it will work fine with the top tube on your bike. If not, though, the Top Tube Frame Adapter will work wonders.

You can put kids bikes on basically any trunk rack, from the cheap walmart racks to the nice Yakima one you see here. The trunk, however, isn't that easy to access when you have bikes on top of it with any trunk rack..

Rated 2.5 out of 5 by 2 reviewers.
Rated 3 out of 5 by Nikki B Bigger than a compact.... I saw this mirror on-line and thought, "This is perfect!" Very cool, modern and eccentric. When it was delivered [...] I was disappointed...it was way too small for my hallway. I liked it enough to keep it though. Its new home is in the corner by the steps with smaller furniture to keep it company...Be sure to REALLY look at the demensions before purchasing... June 8, 2010
Rated 2 out of 5 by Mimi Not at all what I expected Ordered this as a gift to match a basket made from same material. I was very disappointed with the size and overall look of the frame. It was way too small, so be sure to check measurements carefully before ordering. But more importantly, it has a gold thread weaved in it which stands out like a sore thumb to me. (This gold thread was not mentioned in it's description online) Also, I paid extra for overnight delivery. I ordered it on a Wednesday and it did not arrive until 8:00 PM the following Monday!!! Needless to say, it will be returned. September 15, 2012

Never Gonna Give You Up
(Okay Family Guy fans, have your laugh now…out of your system?!)
You know, I almost started this post by talking about how my expectations for the Twins have changed and how we should start watching them purely "for love of the game" and not expect them to be in any sort of pennant race. But then, I got to thinking about those poor fans in Pittsburgh, Kansas City, and a few other cities around the MLB circuit that haven't had anything break right over the past decade (or more) and would love to be competing in any race of any kind right now. Do I think the Twins will win the AL Central? No. Especially not after those two horrible series' against KC and Cleveland, teams that supposedly give us the advantage over Chicago the Detroit down the stretch. But do we still have a chance? However slim, yes we do, and that is the way I look at it (or at least am trying to, anyway).
I think that the past three seasons ('07-'09) have proven that only so many things can break right for a small-market organization. In the early part of this decade, the Twins were reborn as a competitive team thanks to a lot of young talent peaking at the same time. A few years later ('05-'06) the team was still able to contend because of our ability to make steals of trades and keep calling up effective players from the minor leagues. The last three years, though, has seen a complete reversal. The farm system is beginning to get tapped out (they may still be decent, but not like the talent of years ago), and the trades (Bartlett/Garza for Young) haven't been going our way. Plus, the terrible economics of a no-salary cap sporting structure forced the Twins to lose guys like Torii Hunter and Johan Santana, keystones of the franchise.
That being said, the Twins still have a pretty good nucleus of young talent (Mauer, Morneau, Kubel) that can win in the future, but the trick will be keeping them together. One would hope that Mauer (the biggest fish who needs to be landed and mounted behind home plate) can see that and will elect to stay with his hometown team, but nothing is guaranteed in this game.
Thus, the Twins' goal for the last month and a half of this season is to be as competitive as possible to show our young talent that this is a team that can seriously compete again in the future. That starts tonight against Texas, who is currently leading the AL Wild Card standings and thus will be a tough team to beat on the road. However, if there is one thing I never underestimate about a Ron Gardenhire-coached team, it is their ability to come back in the face of severe adversity. Just when you think this is about to happen…
…the Twins will do something crazy like sweep the Rangers and get back in the thick of things.
Preview (56-61, 3rd, 3.5 GB CWS): Francisco Liriano (5-11, 5.39) vs. Tommy Hunter (5-2, 2.26).

TUCSON, Ariz. – Emily Hartong had a match-high 21 kills and No. 10 Hawaii earned the tournament title at the Outrigger Hotels and Resorts Volleyball Challenge with a 3-1 (20-25, 17-25, 25-22, 23-25) victory over Arizona on Saturday night inside the Stan Sheriff Center.
Hartong finished with a match-high 21 kills to go along with 13 digs, while Kalei Adolpho had 14 kills with Tai Manu-Olevao and Nikki Taylor each recording 11 kills. Meanwhile, Mita Uiato dished out 53 assists to go with 12 digs as she was named tournament MVP. Hawaii improved to 8-1 on the season, while Arizona dropped to 7-2 after seeing its five-match winning streak come to a close.
Both teams were pretty efficient on the offensive end as Hawaii hit .289 and Arizona hit .259. The Wildcats out-blocked the Rainbow Wahine, 15.5 – 6.0, but Hawaii had a 62-49 advantage in digs.
Madi Kingdon led the Wildcats with 19 kills, 12 digs and six blocks. Kingdon earned her fourth straight double-double as she was named to the all-tournament team. Freshman Penina Snuka dished out 37 assists to go with five digs, three kills and two blocks. Taylor Arizobal had eight kills, five digs and four blocks, while Shaquillah Torres had seven kills, three digs and two assists. Halli Amaro had a match-high eight blocks to go with five kills. Meanwhile, Ronni Lewis tied Kingdon for team-high honors in digs with 12.
Olivia Magill finished with six kills and four blocks as she joined Kingdon on the all-tournament team.
After Hawaii won the first two sets, Arizona turned a 21-21 tie into a 25-22 victory in the third set after winning four of five points. Kingdon keyed the run with a pair of kills to close out the set.
Hawaii got off to a strong start in the fourth set. The Rainbow Wahine took a 23-16 lead and they look as if they were going to cruise to the victory; however, Arizona won the next four points to pull within three at 23-20. After Hawaii won the next point to earn match point, the Wildcats went on a 3-0 to trail by just one. Hawaii sealed up the match on the next point on a kill by Hartong.
The Wildcats return home for the Wildcat Classic on Friday, Sept. 20. The Wildcats will host Loyola Maryland, Wofford and UC Santa Barbara in the two-day event inside McKale Center.

The Sandwich Generation
By Rebecca Teti
Weekends: Changing Roles -- the needs of the sandwich generation
(Join each day's Coffee Talk discussion: Mon: Parenting; Tues: Open Forum; Wed: NFP; Thu: Marriage; Fri: Education; Sat/Sun: Changing Roles)
Our weekend forum is for issues related to "the sandwich generation." Coping with menopause, caring for aging parents, relations with adult children, grandchildren, going back to work after years at home. Want to hash out a difficulty, get some advice or share a strategy?
This is the place! Come join the conversation!
I suspect that menopause might be around the corner for me. I'm a little young for it, but my mother went through it young (she was done at 46), and I've heard that it's hereditary, and that it will happen even sooner for women like me who have never had a fullterm birth. (And perimenopause would certainly explain my difficulties with conceiving and carrying to term.) Anyway, my periods are very frequent, about 22 days apart, and my most recent symptom that's driving me crazy is getting overheated at night. Not the classic night sweats that I've read about, but just being really hot in bed. I kick off the covers and get cold, pull them back up and I'm hot. And my husband feels like a furnace lying next to me. It does not make for a very restful night. I usually do okay for the first part of the night, but from 1 am on it's constant tossing and turning. Does anyone have any experience with this?
Me, too. Claire. I"m only 42 and have those same symptoms at night and during the day. I don't get sudden hot flashes, but will feel hot for a wile then very cold. The only difference is that my periods are getting further apart. Can anyone recommend a book about perimenopause?
I have the same thing happening at night and have for a few years. I will be turning 45 in a couple weeks. My husband likes to cuddle, and his body heat does feel like a furnace. I would be curious to see if anyone recommends a book.
I have not read this book myself, but I've heard many great things about it. Couldn't remember the title, but found it through Couple to Couple League's website: "What you Doctor may NOT tell you about Menopause", by Dr. John Lee. Hope that's helpful!
I thought one of Christiane Northrup's books dealt heavily with perimenopause, but I can't remember which one. I just remember seeing her on a television show and there being a pretty big discussion about it in terms of one of her books. I hope that helps some.
Thanks for all the responses! I was beginning to think I was getting old before my time, so it's nice to know that there are others going through the same thing! My mother never talked much about her menopause, and claims that she had very few symptoms. And, she sometimes makes fun of people who go on and on about menopausal symptoms. So it's a hard topic for me to talk about. I probably wouldn't buy anything by Christine Northrup because she is pro-abortion, among other things. But I wouldn't be opposed to reading one if I stumbled across it! I will also keep the Dr. Lee book in mind. Thanks everyone! P.S. I wish my cycles were getting longer instead of shorter! I heard that it can go either way in perimenopause. One time I did have a 35 day cycle, which has never happened to me before except for the two times that I was pregnant (but I knew I wasn't pregnant, because I can just tell). So I was hoping that was the beginning of longer cycles for me, but the following month I was back to my typical 22 days!
I am 53, and am not yet "done" with peri- menopause. I have been having symptoms like you speak of for the last 10 years, Claire. It takes 10-12 years, is what my GYN told me. I have used natural supplements and diet and exercise to ease my symptoms, and they have helped tremendously.
Re: Christine NOrthrup: She does have some good ideas, but in her book about Menopause, she had some pretty kooky ideas about relationships etc. I got rid of all her books after I started reading that one. Not at all in line with Catholic teachings.
My shortened cycles have been going on for around 10 years (they started out at 26, then kept getting shorter). The heated nighttime sessions are recent, though. But my mother's last cycle was at age 46, so I think my days are probably numbered if I follow in her footsteps (which is pretty common, from what I understand). I did start an exercise program this month which I love, and I am hoping that will help. What kids of dietary tactics did you implement to ease the symptoms?
Hi Claire. I am 49 and I am now starting to get some perimenopausal symptoms like my periods a little closer together with some small clots. Same length of period though (8 days). I get hot and cold at night also but it might be because of our kooky furnace. I keep pulling the covers off and on also. I get a lot of heart palpitations more often also. It's a very scarey thought that this process might take 15 years!
Hi Monica! Yes, 15 years sounds very daunting! While early menopause doesn't thrill me, I do appreciate the fact that I am already several years into the process, so hopefully it won't be too much longer till I get to my "new normal".
I too am on the brink of menopause -- I recently ran across "Women of the 14th Moon," a book of essays and poetry about the change of life. I've found it very uplifting, in spite of the occasional 70s style feminist rants, and have enjoyed reading it. I'm still looking for a good medical/health book on this topic.

We live in dangerous times.
That's the message NAMI has delivered this month in a special report, State Mental Health Cuts: a National Crisis, which has received widespread media attention.
The report provides the first comprehensive look at how deep states have been cutting mental health budgets, based on tedious examination of public documents. For tens of thousands of people, the safety net for people living with mental illness is being shredded.
Two thirds of states have made cuts in mental health care in the last three years, even as need has increased because of the nation's economic distress and troops returning home from war. Nineteen states managed to increase mental health during the same period, but for 12 of them, increases totaled only four percent or less.
In all states, the budget squeeze is getting worse in part because of the expiration of enhanced federal Medicaid support in June 2011. Oregon, for example, increased mental health spending by $57.4 million from 2009 to 2011—23 percent. But it will lose $156 million because of the expiration. The report provides much data that helps to explain the crisis, how we got here and where we are headed.
Budget cuts aren't just about data.
In real, human terms, lives are at risk.
Mental health cuts mean that clinics, crisis centers and hospitals close. Admissions are frozen. Emergency room visits increase. Where services remain, staff is cut, wait times for appointments are stretched and when people finally are seen, it's for shorter amounts of time.
People don't get the right help in the right place at the right time. Communities suffer and families break under the strain. Some people end up living on the street or dead.
Two months ago, the news media focused intensely on the nation's mental health care system in the wake of the Arizona tragedy in which a young man with symptoms of mental illness killed six persons and wounded U.S. Representative Gabrielle Giffords and 12 others.
As was the case with the Virginia Tech tragedy in 2007, national attention is too often fleeting, soon moving on to another topic. Less visible tragedies take place everyday in our communities—suicides, homelessness, arrests, incarcerations, school drop-outs and more. The service system in many communities is fractured and simply not accessible to all in need.
NAMI's report focuses primarily on non-Medicaid mental health services, which are financed with state general funds and provided through state mental health agencies. It is the part of the mental health system that state legislatures have the most control over.
Medicaid funds many essential community treatment and rehabilitation services. Hard decisions will have to be made regarding general funds and Medicaid expenditures in legislative sessions that are happening now in your state and mine. Without your help it is unlikely that mental health will escape more of the budget ax.
The time is now to talk to your elected policymakers. These are dangerous times. We have not seen cuts like those outlines in this report in our lifetime. You have the power to move your elected officials. In fact, we have more power than we know. In the wake of the report, please be an advocate and speak out.
You can do so by clicking here to send a message to your elected officials. Write letters to the editors. Post media stories highlighting the mental health budget crisis on your Facebook page and on other social media.
Save mental health. No more cuts.
Give us back our lives. Give us back our futures. Tell everybody you know.

13,471 gallons of wastewater spill in Thomasville due to heavy rain
Published: Tuesday, May 7, 2013 at 4:46 p.m.
Last Modified: Tuesday, May 7, 2013 at 4:46 p.m.
The City of Thomasville reported Tuesday a spill of 13,471 gallons of untreated wastewater Monday.
The spill came from the East Davidson Pump Station at 810 Old Emanuel Church Road, and approximately 13,000 gallons went into South Hamby Creek in the Yadkin/Pee Dee River Basin, according to a press release from the city.
Infiltration and inflow into the collection system from heavy rain Monday caused the spill, and rainwater constituted most of it, the release said.
The Division of Water Quality was notified Monday and is reviewing the matter. For further information, contact the City of Thomasville at 475-4220.
State law requires municipalities, animal operations, industries and others who operate waste-handling systems to issue a news release when a spill of 1,000 gallons or more reaches surface waters.

TUCSON, Ariz. - Paced by Matt Estlund, The Arizona State University men's cross country team took second place at the Dave Murray Invitational in Tucson, Ariz., on Friday evening.
Estlund, a redshirt sophomore, clocked the fast time in his career on the Dell Urich Golf Course to finish eighth overall in the men's 4.25 mile run. In his third appearence on the course in Tucson, Estlund clocked a time of 21:45.0 to lead the ASU squad - nearly half a minute faster than his previous best time in the event.
Right on Estlund's heels was teammate Jesus Molina - competing n his first collegiate race - in ninth in a time of 22:01.0. Steven Schneiders was the third Sun Devil in the top-20, clocking a time of 22:15.0 to finish 16th.
Josh Walker, a new acquisition to the team, was next across the line for ASU in 22:27.0 in 20th while Andrew Hagler rounded out the point-scoring individuals with a 23rd-place, 22:32.0 performance to give the Sun Devils their fifth top-25 performer.
The host Arizona won the men's competition with 34 points while ASU tallied 64 points in the runner-up effort.
The Sun Devil cross country squad will now look ahead to its first big test of the season, as the team heads way north to Minneapolis, Minn., to compete in the Roy Griak Invitational next weekend, which will feature some of the top teams in the country.

Reviews for Fancy Skillet Steaks
"I probably wouldn't have posted if it were not for travlnman02. What an arogant person. We all share our recipes and don't need criticism from people who don't try them.Keep it to yourself we don't care one so negative thinks we always hope people want to learn and help each other do better.Maybe our way isn't better but it is another way!Good Cooking everyone and Bon Appetit!"
"Excellent post,LeLimey. I hope travlnman02 reads it and thinks twice before going "off topic" again. Nice point about worcestershire's ingredients."
"I have to laugh when I read how people won't used prepared seasoning because of other ingredients and go on to espouse worcestershire sauce which, although I love it, is chock full of preservatives! I also dislike it INTENSELY when people criticise a recipe and obviously haven't tried it because they "don't like" any of the ingredients. Thats very ignorant and I wish there was a facility in place on the site where you could report off topic reviews for deletion.If you cook the steaks in a skillet pan the fat will run off so another misapprehension can be cleared up right there too! I think the recipe looks very tasty and the only addition I might make would be either some capers or green peppers in the sauce depending on my mood or possibly some spring onions (scallions? green onions? I'm not sure of the American term) as a garnish.Thank you Harriet for a simple but tasty way to quickly dress up a steak and make it a little different"
"I'd definitely add more seasoning and spices, but the basic recipe is a good starting point. I was annoyed by travlnman02 who obviously simply likes to see himself in print but had no intention of trying the recipe. Waste of my time to read him."
"I actually TRIED the recipe and liked it. Travlnman02 should give it a try before slamming it. I could pick apart all his/her "suggestions", but that would be too easy."

CAIRNS, Queensland - Brock Motum scored 41 points and Reggie Moore added 18, as the Washington State University men's basketball team fell in a close game, 86-81, to the Cairns Taipans of the National Basketball League (NBL), Monday at Cairns Basketball Stadium.

The Taipans were led by Cameron Tragardh with 26 points, while Clint Steindl added 20, Brad Hill had 14 and Aaron Grabau added 10. Hill had a team-high 6 rebounds, as the Cougars outrebounded the Taipans, 32-17.
Cairns started the fourth quarter with a purpose, taking a 63-62 lead with 9:25 to go in the game. After tying the game, the Cougars regained the lead at 65-63 with 8:15 to go. The Taipans then went on a 7-0 run, before Motum's layup snapped the momentum to put his team down 70-67 with 5:27 to go. With WSU trailing 70-69, Motum was called for a technical foul and Cairns' Hill was called for an unsportsmanlike foul. Motum hit his two free throws though, as he had been fouled, and the Cougars scored 5-straight to lead 74-70.
The Taipans came back to regain the lead at 78-77 after a pair of free throw misses by Moore with 1:45 to go in the game. The Cougars tied the game at 78, but Cairns scored 8 unanswered and, including the last two as Motum fouled out, as the Cougars fell 86-81.

The teams exchanged points as Moore caught fire, scoring eight points to give the Cougars a tie with the Taipains at 53 apiece and 5 minutes to go in the third.

Washington State extended its lead to 3 points at the end of the quarter, 62-59. Motum had 27 points at the end of the third, joined in double figures by Moore with 16, while Ladd had 12 rebounds.

The Taipans were able to get the lead back to double figures at 36-24 with 4:05 to go in the second period. The Cougars chipped away at the lead, with 9 of their next 11 points coming from the free throw line. With 20 seconds to go and the Cougars trailing by 7, Moore kept the ball in his heads, drove to the hoop and converted a layup off the glass cutting the WSU deficit to 5, 42-37 at halftime.
Brock Motumhad 14 of WSU's 16 points in the first quarter, but a 7-0 Taipan run gave WSU a 10-point, 26-16 deficit after the first 10 minutes. WSU shot 44 percent from the field, while Cairns shot 63 percent on 10-for-16 from the field.Moore ended the first quarter with 2 assists, while Ladd and Kernich-Drew each had 2 rebounds.

Transient tachypnea of the newborn (TTN) is a term for a mild respiratory problem of babies that begins after birth and lasts about three days. Other terms for TTN are "wet lungs" or type II respiratory distress syndrome.
It is thought that slow absorption of the fluid in the fetal lungs causes TTN. This fluid makes taking in oxygen harder and the baby breathes faster to compensate.
Only a small percentage of all newborns develop TTN. Although premature babies can have TTN, most babies with this problem are full-term. The condition may be more likely to develop in babies delivered by cesarean section because the fluid in the lungs does not get squeezed out as in a vaginal birth.
The following are the most common symptoms of transient tachypnea of the newborn. However, each baby may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
The symptoms of TTN may resemble other conditions or medical problems. Always consult your baby's physician for a diagnosis.
Chest x-rays are often used to help diagnose TTN. On x-ray, the lungs show a streaked appearance and appear over-inflated. X-rays are a diagnostic test which uses invisible electromagnetic energy beams to produce images of internal tissues, bones, and organs onto film. However, it may be difficult to tell whether the problem is TTN or another kind of respiratory problem such as hyaline membrane disease. Often, TTN is diagnosed when symptoms suddenly resolve by the third day of life.
Specific treatment for transient tachypnea of the newborn will be determined by your baby's physician based on:
Treatment may include:
Tube feedings may also be necessary if the baby's breathing rate is too high, because of the risk of aspiration of the food. Once TTN goes away, the baby usually recovers quickly and has no increased risk for additional respiratory problems.

Reviews for Potluck Apple Crisp
"VERY GOOD. Followed recipe exactly."
"This is delicious! I used 1/2C applesauce instead of the oil and I added some cloves and allspice to spice it up some more. Yum!! Thanks for sharing!"
"mmmmm divine. The way you cook the apples first makes a huge difference in the finished product - tender apples and a crispy crust, not a burnt crust."
"I'm sure you've received answers to your question, but for my 2-cents worth, I've tried both the Red Delicious and the Granny Smith. I chose the loose individual apples over the bargain bagged apples because I've found the individuals are more crunchy and not like styrofoam like the bagged bargin applies. I really think the crunch is the factor, not so much the tartness of the apple."
"So easy and made with ingredients that are usually on hand anyway. I had too many apples and wanted to do something with them, and glad I did! Next time I think I'd cut down on the brown sugar. This would also be great with some fresh cherries added in with the apples. Next time!"

Bursting 30 minutes late into Figaro Bistrot, a popular café in the hilly L.A. neighborhood of Los Feliz, Kate Walsh issues a heartfelt "I'm so sorry." She settles into a low leather chair, adjusts the hem of her asymmetrical, deep-purple Isabel Marant knit dress, then immediately sheds her stilty gray suede ankle boots. "I walk from the car to here, then I take them off," she says of her footwear MO. It's a trick Walsh learned from Addison Forbes Montgomery, her briskly efficient, Christian Louboutin–wearing neonatal surgeon alter ego on the ABC hit series Private Practice. "If you think about it, in the OR, Addison doesn't wear them. She wears Crocs," Walsh notes. "So she just really walks down the hall in her heels looking badass, then goes back to her desk and sits."
In fact, with the show in its fourth season since being spun off from Grey's Anatomy, Walsh admits that she has now spent so much time faux-bringing little ones into the world that she occasionally forgets she's not a real doctor. "A friend is pregnant, and I was asking her questions as if I were some sort of expert," Walsh says, laughing. "I mean, who do I think I am?"
Well, let's see. In addition to embodying the romantically challenged physician, Walsh is one of television's most beloved and easygoing stars. "There's a reason she keeps getting work," says Mike O'Malley, Kurt's blue-collar father on Glee, who starred with Walsh in a short-lived NBC sitcom in 1999. "Part of it is that people just want to work with people they like. I don't think Hollywood is any different." And she is the architect of an immensely satisfying second career as creator and marketer of a fragrance line that she launched with her own cash and promoted with Web commercials she produced herself rather than ceding control in the more standard celebrity-licensing deal. She is also, colleagues say, much funnier in real life than her deadpan Addison character would lead one to believe. Finding Lady Gaga's justification for her infamous 2010 Video Music Awards meat dress lacking ("The explanation was so convoluted; it was like, 'Freedom and Don't Ask, Don't Tell—I'm trying to get that repealed' . . . and I was like, 'What? You've lost me' "), she decided to go on The Tonight Showwearing a dress festooned with plastic sushi and sashimi.
Her point? Walsh admits, "I do stuff just to amuse myself."
In Hollywood, where talent and beauty are not always enough, Walsh's wry geniality makes her stand out. When asked to rewind to her first meeting with Walsh back in 2004, Shonda Rhimes, the creator of Grey's Anatomy, recalls how every actress vying for the role of Addison was inexplicably wrong—until Walsh blew in for an audition. "Kate's very socially adept in the sense that when she comes into a room, she's very funny and self-deprecating, and you think, She's kind of great! I don't remember what her reading was like, just that she [left] and I thought, That's Addison," says Rhimes, adding that Walsh also seemed smart, strong and "beautiful but not creepy-beautiful, so she's believable as a doctor."
It was Walsh's dramatic versatility—and Addison's—that made Rhimes think that of all the dazzlingly telegenic stars on Grey's, it was Addison/Walsh who should be the focus of the spin-off she was planning. "When we were in the writers' room, you could pitch stories for that character all day and never run out," Rhimes says of the brainy, glamorous, insecure supersurgeon whose life and foibles sometimes eerily echo Walsh's. The day Rhimes summoned her to deliver the good news, the actress assumed the worst: "Shonda called me into her office. She and I are friends, but I'm still thinking, What's wrong? Panic. I thought I was in trouble. A real principal's office kind of moment." Private Practice debuted on September 26, 2007, to big ratings and a rocky critical reception. ("One of the most depressing portrayals of the female condition since The Bell Jar," was the New York Times's glum assessment.) But by season two, the weekly travails of the attractive middle-aged doctors at the privately owned Oceanside Wellness Center in Los Angeles began to find a groove.
Of course, making it to the big leagues has had its challenges, including the paparazzi, who on at least one occasion that she remembers captured her as she sleepily picked up the morning newspaper on her porch. "It's a totally surreal experience," Walsh says. "That's why I put up hedges. Ugh." And she clearly could have done without the blazing 48-point headlines following her split from film executive Alex Young. The couple married after dating for just seven months, only to announce their separation 14 months later. The highly publicized divorce proceedings included reports of Young's rejected demands for spousal support as well as of mutual restraining orders. "Do you mean The End of My Marriage?" she says when asked what it was like to have such a private matter play itself out in the media. "Oh my God. The worst thing ever. It was so public, and yet it was so legal-embroiled. You couldn't talk about anything. And I still can't really." However, she does allow that she no longer makes hair-trigger moves without getting a consensus from her friends first: "I've always had that courage thing down, but then I had to develop the rest. I've learned to seek other people's counsel more. That's a good part of growing up."
Queries about her current romantic status elicit fizzy deflections, like "I'm sexy and single!" and "Just say I'm 'dating'!" But ask Walsh if she's living the life she imagined when she was small, and she gives a straight answer. "No," she says as she polishes off a seared-tuna Nicoise salad down to the last lettuce leaf. "I thought I'd be married and have three or four kids. I always knew I wanted to be an actress, but I think I always wanted a quote-unquote normal life because I had a very untraditional upbringing."
It's no surprise that Walsh has always dreamed of the ordinary. Born in San Jose, California, the youngest of five kids, she was only six when her parents divorced. At 42, her mother married a man 17 years her junior. "I call her the original cougar," Walsh jokes. "She's 77 now, and he's about to be 60. I said, 'Mom, if I want a grand cougar for my next [perfume] webomercial, can I dress you up and put you on a throne with, like, a cougar head and an amulet and a staff?' "
When the newlyweds relocated to Tucson, where Walsh's stepfather was pursuing a doctorate in psychology, 11-year-old Kate was the only one of the kids they brought with them (most of her siblings were already on their own; a brother stayed with their father to finish high school). Over the course of her childhood, Walsh moved at least 10 times, mostly within Arizona, and went to 15 schools. Quick to form bonds, she always had friends. But as a latchkey kid—her mother was "a social worker, a nurse's assistant; she did lots of different things"—Kate would return home to an empty house each day and whip herself up a snack of Stir'n Frost single-serving cake. "You'd just add water," she says. "There was a foil pouch of frosting. You cooked the cake in the microwave, put the frosting on and then . . . " Walsh mimes shoveling food into her mouth. "Yellow cake with chocolate frosting. It was very comforting."
The one consistency in every new city was her devotion to school drama clubs and community theater. When her parents first split up, Kate and her mother settled into an evening ritual that would eventually inform her career choice. "My mom and I would watch Million Dollar Movie," she recalls. "It Happened One Night. Sergeant York. Miracle on 34th Street. All the musicals with Judy Garland and Mickey Rooney. I would go, 'This is great! These look like wonderful people, and they're really having a good time.' " Inspired by such film classics, she starred as a pint-size, silvery-voiced Glinda the Good Witch in a second-grade production of The Wizard of Ozand has been onstage ever since. The only time she gave up acting was when she enrolled at the University of Arizona in Tucson. Determined to steer away from the dramatic arts, she ran through En-glish, business, art history and political science as majors, then dropped out at 19 and became a full-time ingenue at the desert community's a.k.a. Theatre, whose productions ranged from Shakespeare to Shepard and Rabe.
After Tucson came Nagoya, Japan, where Walsh spent a summer teaching English to Japanese familiesto make some extra cash. "No one spoke English," she says. "It made me feel like I was in Heart of Darkness. I definitely had some Kurtzian moments." Then Chicago, improv classes and a stint at the Piven Theatre Workshop, an acting school run by Jeremy (Entourage) Piven's parents. Her four-year stretch in New York City began with her sharing a fifth-floor Lower East Side walk-up apartment with her older brother, Joe, an artist, where they slept head to toe in the same bed. When she landed an audition for The Drew Carey Show, it was time to decamp for Los Angeles. If she got the job, they told her, she'd have to start right away. "Either pack for a day—or 30 days," the casting director advised. "I chose to pack for 30 days," she says. "And then I got the job, and then I stayed." She'd scored a recurring guest spot as Nicki Fifer, Carey's newly svelte girlfriend who slowly packs the pounds back on. Walsh has worked steadily ever since, mostly playing straight to someone else's funny: She was Norm -McDonald's love interest on The Norm Show, Will Ferrell's wife in Kicking & Screamingand the calm significant other of a prone-to-hysteria Sandra Oh in Under the Tuscan Sun. But she was so daunted during her first year in Los Angeles that she stayed in drab corporate housing simply because it was close to the studio. "I was so overwhelmed, I didn't know how to move around the city," she says. But there were some familiar faces at the complex: "I saw Jeremy Piven's father, Byrne, my acting teacher. He was getting into the Jacuzzi with a book in a black Speedo. He was, like, 70 then."
Remembering those days, Walsh says, "I have a great support system. I think I've always created community. That's part of moving around so much. I can create an instant home." She adds with a laugh, "I think that's served me well and other times not served me well. Like thinking, Oh, hey! Let's get married!" Walsh now lives in a 1920s-vintage Spanish-style house in the hills of Los Feliz. Recently it dawned on her that she's been a card-carrying resident of Los Angeles for the past 12 years, actually achieving the geographical stability she's always longed for. "About a month ago, I had this epiphany: Oh, I live here!" she says. "There's this thing that was ingrained in me when I was a kid of, like, 'We got to get somewhere else now.' I think I just got used to it. I was used to the stimulus that was moving."
The punishingly long days required of the star of an hour-long TV hospital drama could provoke restlessness in anybody. One way Walsh passes the time is by thumbing Twitter updates into her BlackBerry. "It's mildly addictive. But when you're on the set so much, you can kind of check in on people," says Walsh, whose chatty posts ("Oh Tw'eeties, busy day, very busy. Small anxiety attack. Must keep all the good holiday calm going") read as if she is corresponding with 80,000 of her besties. "In a strange way, it keeps you company, this world of Twitter people." She sees it as sort of a salon, albeit with boundaries.
"She's set up a really nice blueprint of how to let people in but still keep things personal and private," says Taye Diggs, who plays Addison's current Private Practicelove interest, heart surgeon Sam Bennett. Diggs is also inspired by Walsh's multitasking. "There's not much downtime for her—she's a busy woman, very driven," he says, adding that she's always hosting potluck Sundays or throwing cast-and-crew parties at her house or inviting Diggs and his wife, Idina Menzel, to go out dancing. "She's kind of a trip: She'll be away for the weekend doing [charity projects]"—Walsh works with an LGBT youth suicide-prevention hotline, the Trevor Project, and is the face of Oceana's Getting Sea Turtles Off the Hook campaign—"then report on time on Monday morning having memorized a monologue full of medical jargon."
As for the show's numerous "bad news" scenes, Diggs admits to having trouble keeping a straight face during them: "At this point, we've said every possible version of 'You know, I'm sorry, but she's not going to make it.' " For her part, Walsh describes her handsome costar as a "living Adonis" and jokes about the futility of trying to "match up to that" for their love scenes. "It certainly requires you to take care of yourself. But I like to eat food, and I don't diet. I do Pilates, and I hike with my dog. It's weird. As you get older, everything changes. Everything starts getting . . . looser. But I think it's important to accept that. I'm lucky. I've got pretty good genes. But I think it's a weird thing to fight it."
Walsh's professional plate was already full when she had a brainstorm: Why not invent a floral fragrance that also evokes a man's scent—faintly woody—and call it Boyfriend? After developing the product, she launched it last year with a series of witty online "webisode" commercials she wrote, directed and starred in. Walsh also hawked the Boyfriend kit (which includes eau de parfum spray, dry body-oil spray, pulse-point oil, body cream and a votive candle) on the Home Shopping Network. It sold out. "It's all my investment," she says. "I made the prototype. We went out and sold it to HSN, to Sephora. Then I got a loan from the bank. It was a big thing to go, OK, I'm doing this! I'm making this whole thing come together. This weird orchestra. Some part of me really clicked in. My feeling was, If this is successful, it would afford me a little freedom to do what I want." Emboldened by the Boyfriend experience, Walsh is toying with the idea of expanding her product line and maybe trying her hand at directing or following in Dick Cavett's '70s footsteps with a smart late-night (online) talk show.
On Private Practice, if there is a question that is consistently posed to Addison, it's about having it all. "I think Shonda [is] interested in writing something more adult, more what [is] going on with people in their thirties and forties," Walsh says. "What happens after your dream comes true? Then what?"
These are concerns that also churn in Walsh's mind: "You know, it's real issues, what it's like to be a woman in your forties, childless, in a relationship, been married, divorced." Walsh pauses, then intones jokingly, "Not that there are any parallels to my life!"
Sometimes, she confesses, "I feel like a loser. I would definitely love to be a parent. But I definitely don't think I want to do it on my own. Things are just going to go the way they go."
Back in January, ABC announced it had picked up Private Practice for a fifth season. That means Walsh knows where she'll be reporting for duty at least until 2012. Occasionally, though, she feels a flutter of her old childhood wanderlust, and she starts thinking about returning to the East Coast. "It's easy to romanticize the past," she says. "When I lived in New York, I lived in a rent-controlled apartment. I had three bills to pay: rent, gas and electric, phone. A very simple life."
Then she reminds herself that 15 years ago she was also waitressing unhappily in jazz clubs at night, going to auditions during the day and wondering if a big break was ever going to come her way. What am I trying to get back to? is what she asks herself. "I live here," says Walsh, snuggling into the thought. "I have a great life. It's pretty glorious."

Even though this Christmas letter was written more than 14 years ago in our early parenting days, it can still bring a laugh. I was working full time and commuting into New York City. Now, my high-school senior is checking out colleges, and my sophomore turns 16 next year!
December 24, 1998
Dear Family and Friends,
Ah Christmas time. Time to put on the Christmas music, break out the egg nog, start a crackling fire and start writing the dozens of hand-penned notes to family and friends, reminiscing about the year about to close, proudly sharing "Kodak moments" we've experienced throughout the last 12 months.
Here we are, just a few days before Christmas and resigned to the fact that the cards will be late and that we must resort to impersonal computer technology to help us compose a few words. Thank goodness for spell check.
Bob and I have been quite blessed in 1998. Life is good. We're in good health — most of the time — and our cherished cherubs are getting bigger by the day. Work and family have been quite hectic around here — a combination of "Family Circus" and "Dilbert." It's important to keep our sense of humor these days.
So to all our family and friends, we thought we'd share just a glimpse of our fondest memories in 1998 —
- Leaving for work when the moon is still out.
- Getting Mackenzie dressed the night before to save five minutes in the morning.
- Serving spaghetti three times a week (first with meat balls, then with meat sauce, and on the third day ... hey, do they REALLY need meat every night?).
- Learning that Gerber's baby hot dogs can be quite good — especially out of the jar.
- Blowing leaves, cutting the grass and trimming the bushes with head phones on. (Honest honey, I didn't hear: a. you b. the kids crying c. all of the above.)
- Discovering that fine dining means going to Charlie Brown's, Houlihans or any similar chain that serves a bucket of crayons and kids meals all within an hour.
- Spending a quiet Saturday night grocery shopping — alone.
- Sleeping until 6:30 on a Saturday morning. What a joy!
- Sending Bob out for a "quick" errand and discovering an hour later that he's taken his book with him.
- Running red lights to get to the babysitter before her family sits down to dinner, but secretly hoping she's set a place for Evan and Mackenzie in case we're late.
- Seeing a good movie means renting any video and staying awake through the whole thing.
- Admitting that the dried yogurt on your shirt was really from the last time you wore it.
- Learning from your urologist that he can't understand why your second surgery didn't work and getting your tooth pulled — all in the same week.
- Flipping a coin over who gets to do the dishes, sweep the floor and wash down the walls after dinner, or who gets to give two kids a bath, put them to bed, and get their clothes and lunches ready for the next day.
- Waking up in Evan's bed at midnight and remembering that I fell asleep before he did.
- Learning that when the teacher asked Evan to name something cold, he piped up, "dinner" (only from the mouths of babes!).
Ah yes, Life is good. People tell us to enjoy these moments because they don't last forever. We wouldn't trade them for the world — well, most of the time anyway.
We hope you had a fun packed year. We'd love to hear from you, maybe even make a date to get together, although we don't get out much. We wish you all a wonderful Christmas and a happy new year!

All branches of Marin County Free Library will be closed on Monday, July 4 for Independence Day.
February, 2012 at the Fairfax Library--Come see the beautiful photography exhibit of the High Sierras taken by father/daughter team of Peter and Anne Pennypacker. Anne and Peter started hiking in the High Sierras in 1998, with packer Willard Wyman. As they witnessed the beauty of the the trails, lakes and wilderness, Anne and Peter used the wonders of photography to capture their experiences. Their scenic photos take you into their world, where transport is by burro, lakes reflect the stunning beauty of the mountains, and entertainment happens around a campfire. Viewing this lovely photography exhibit allows you to take in a deep breath of nature and offers a brief respite from our hectic modern world. What a gift.
From Anne's Artist's statement:
"I wanted to co-exibit with my father, as my first learning experience with photography was at age 15, and he trained me with a manual film Minolta camera on the first of many trips across California's Sierra Nevada. These trips gave me much time and ample space to explore the paths of the Sierras and learn many camera techniques. I love art, photography and nature and I feel less whole when I lose touch with any of those three elements."
From Peter's Artist's statement:
"To me the peace and the challenges nature offers are a deeply felt balance and rhythm. The stride of a footstep is like the ticking of a wonderful clock. The shuffling movement of the burros, the creaking of the panniers held tight by a diamond hitch, the heat, the dust, the sound of water and wind, the cold, the stars, the fire crackling, the embers, the routine. Here and now. Here and always."
Please come have a look—we'd love to see you! Get some art into your life!
Note: The Fairfax meeting room is open to the public during regular library hours. Please check out the Fairfax branch page/Calendar events for times when the room may be in use.

Middle, high school city students to receive email accounts
Published: Monday, March 11, 2013 at 12:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Friday, March 8, 2013 at 3:12 p.m.
Lexington City Schools will launch student email accounts this week to middle and high school students.
Nathan Craver, director of technology, shared with the board of education last week information on the new form of communication for the system. A year ago, Craver addressed the board about setting up email for sixth-graders to seniors.
"It's another way to get information out," Craver said.
There are several purposes for the email set-up — to increase communication between students, parents and staff; provide a safe environment for the community; and address the digital citizen curriculum.
Rick Kriesky, superintendent of Lexington City Schools, said a completely different world exists compared to not only 15 years ago, but just five years ago.
"The electronic media is part of our children's life. If we don't capture it, we're missing a huge opportunity," said
A big factor for setting up the accounts was ensuring students were safe. For example, middle-school students will only be able to communicate with their grade level and school personnel through the accounts. The high-schoolers will have a little more freedom to communicate with staff and all students.
Craver noted that parents will have access to the passwords and will be able to see whatever information the system or teachers may send out to students. That can range from homework, class assignments or information a teacher may need to send out after school hours.
Craver also mentioned they have a strong filter that will protect students against profanity, bullying and pornography. Whenever there's an issue with an email, the filter will flag it and intercept any suspicious emails. Information will be sent to Craver, and he will take the information to the appropriate administrator. He even said they will have access to every email sent for up to seven years.
"We're providing resources for students to use properly," Craver said.
Unlike other email accounts, there will be no advertisements coming through for students to see unless the system allows it. Craven noted there will be no outside emails allowed to come in either.
Kriesky said everything is set up carefully to protect the students.
"It's just one more avenue we're trying to open up, not only between students and teachers, but also that parent-teacher relationship," he said.

Ranked among the nation's most integrated healthcare systems, Community Health Network is Central Indiana's leader in providing convenient access to exceptional healthcare services, where and when patients need them—in hospitals, health pavilions, workplaces, schools and homes.
Otitis externa, also called swimmer's ear, is an inflammation of the external ear canal. Swimmer's ear is caused by fungi or bacteria. Water that remains trapped in the ear canal (when swimming, for example) may provide a source for the growth of bacteria and fungi.
Many different factors can increase your child's chance of developing swimmer's ear. As the name implies, one of the factors is excessive wetness as with swimming, although it can occur without swimming. Other possible causes of this infection include the following:
The following are the most common symptoms of swimmer's ear. However, each child may experience symptoms differently. Symptoms may include:
The symptoms of swimmer's ear may resemble other medical conditions or problems. Always consult your child's physician for a diagnosis.
Swimmer's ear may be diagnosed with a complete medical history and physical examination by your child's physician. Your child's physician may use an otoscope, a lighted instrument that helps to examine the ear and to aid in the diagnosis of ear disorders. This will help your child's physician know if there is also an infection in the middle ear, called otitis media.
