Lloyd Blankfein Graces TV With His Presence
The Goldman Sachs CEO made a rare appearance on camera today.
For the first time since 2010, Goldman Sachs CEO and chairman Lloyd Blankfein appeared on television for interviews today, popping up on both CNBC and Bloomberg TV, where the hosts were giddy to have him. (CNBC had a countdown clock to his appearance.) Perhaps unsurprisingly then, Blankfein did not face many hard-hitting questions, although he was asked about Greg Smith's very public resignation in a New York Times op-ed. "Excuse the oxymoron," Blankfein said, "we've gotten used to surprises." There were none this morning.
"As the day went on we got tremendous response," Blankfein continued on the Smith shocker. "I have to deal with clients and people at work and the reaction was overwhelmingly positive and supportive," he said, brushing off the customers-as-"muppets" claim and adding that Goldman Sachs "couldn't have the clients we have if we were anti-client."
Blankfein said there is indeed a plan for succession at the company, but insisted it won't be necessary anytime soon. "I have no plans to leave," he said, addressing the always-buzzing rumors. "I read the same papers you do. You may think they get it from me. I can tell you I have no idea where they get it from."
Asked about the upcoming election, Blankfein called himself a Rockefeller Republican and "a registered Democrat," but declined to say much more. "My e-mail is filled with invitations to attend fund-raisers for every party," he said.
He also touched lightly on the Wall Street crackdown. "I don't like every regulation," he said, but later admitted that, when it comes to conflicts of interest, the industry could use "more prophylactics."

Karina Smirnoff
Kharkiv, Ukraine
"It's better to be second while everyone is saying 'You should have been first' than be first when everyone says 'You should be second.'"
- Karina Smirnoff
Ukrainian-born Karina Smirnoff is a world champion professional dancer who has won multiple competitions representing the United States and Russia. She's best known for her participation on ABC's Dancing with the Stars series, where she has been partnered with Mario Lopez, Billy Ray Cyrus, Floyd Mayweather Jr., and Rocco DiSpirito. She has also appeared in the 2004 film Shall We Dance?
Karina Smirnoff BiographyKarina Smirnoff was born as Karyna Smirnova on March 13, 1978, in Kharkiv, Ukraine. She began dancing at an early age, starting with ballet lessons at the age of 5, before going on to take up other disciplines including gymnastics, aerobics, figure skating, and ballroom dancing. In 1992, she moved to New York City where she put dancing on hold to concentrate on her academic studies. After graduating from the Bronx High School of Science, she enrolled at Fordham University, where she earned a double-major in economics and information system programming.
karina smirnoff kicks off her dance careerWhile attending Fordham, Karina Smirnoff's passion for dancing was reignited after she enrolled at a Brooklyn dance school. Pairing up with dance partner Roman Nabatov during the mid 1990s, the dancing duo represented the United States in a number of amateur competitions before splitting up in January 1997. Karina Smirnoff turned professional after teaming up with Paul Killick in October 1998, and together they represented England.
After her partnership with Paul Killick dissolved in mid 1999, Karina Smirnoff represented the U.S. with Louis Van Amstel until their partnership ended in December 2000. Within a month, she and Slavik Kryklyvyy were representing the United States together. They won several major competitions before going their separate ways in September 2005. Karina Smirnoff paired with Dmitri Timokhin the following month, and as a Russian team, they won the Grand-Prix Dynamo in Moscow in 2006.
karina smirnoff joins dancing with the starsIn September 2006, Karina Smirnoff debuted as a professional dancer on the third season of ABC-TV's Dancing with the Stars, paired with actor Mario Lopez. The duo soon became a couple off the dance floor as well, and finished in the runner-up position after being beaten by Cheryl Burke and Emmitt Smith. In March 2007, Karina Smirnoff was paired with country singer and actor Billy Ray Cyrus for season 4 of the competition. They finished in fifth place that May.
Boxing champ Floyd Mayweather Jr. was Karina Smirnoff's partner for the 5th season of Dancing with the Stars. They became the fourth couple to be eliminated in October 2007. For season 6 of the series, which premiered in March 2008, she was paired with R&B singer Mario. Rumors of a romance between the dance partners made the tabloids and gossip blogs around the time her relationship with former beau Mario Lopez ended. Karina Smirnoff was paired with celebrity chef Rocco DiSpirito for season 7 of Dancing with the Stars. They were the fourth pair to face elimination in October 2008.

HTC won't make a 5-inch Windows Phone because the OS doesn't support 1080p screens
If you've been looking at the current onslaught of 5-inch and larger Android devices that are either on the market already or rumored to be in development, you may have wondered where all the 5-inch Windows Phones are. Similarly, if you looked at HTC's Droid DNA and thought something along the lines of "wow, if only this ran Windows Phone 8…", here's some bad news.
HTC won't be making a large-screened Windows Phone anytime soon. The reason for this? The platform's limitations. This, in fact, has always been the reason why certain shiny new hardware advancements haven't made it to the WP camp, or if they have (see HD displays and dual-core processors), they've been pretty late compared to the Android competition.
Once again, a hardware feature isn't supported by Microsoft's newest mobile operating system. WP8 apparently doesn't go anywhere past 1280×768, a resolution just slightly higher than 'plain' 720p HD. And those 5-inch screens that are so en vogue right now come with Full HD 1080p (1920×1080) resolution.
HTC did consider releasing a WP8 device with a large, 5-inch-ish screen yet with a lower-res display, but decided that such an offering wouldn't be competitive with its own Android smartphones, or with those put out by Samsung or others. This is according to "a person familiar with the project".
The project was to bring a 5″+ device with WP8 to market sometime next year, hoping it would help the ailing Taiwanese smartphone manufacturer to regain some lost market share. But such a handset wouldn't actually be the right move for this goal, the company eventually decided.
Microsoft sure is losing the spec war to Android with its insistence on taking its time until it allows newly developed hardware to get Windows Phone. Of course, the Redmond giant is also losing the market share war to Android, and, perhaps, the high-end mindshare war to Apple and, to some extent, Samsung's Galaxy series of Androids.
Becoming more flexible with regard to hardware requirements may help Microsoft in the future, but it surely doesn't look like the company is in a hurry to do anything about… anything. It's taking its sweet time in between OS releases, bringing just a few new features with each, emulating Apple's software release model while forgetting about the incredibly big gap between Apple's market share and its own. When you're the underdog, you need to innovate, and do it a lot faster than your competitors.

Wine, beer, breakfast and live music will be part of the new mix as the Aster Café, 125 Main Street SE, expands into prime time.
The charming coffee house on historic Main Street and the Minneapolis riverfront will now serve breakfast, lunch and dinner, and pour wine and beer until midnight seven days a week. The opening target date is Sunday, May 23, according to Aster's Facebook page.
Aster Cafe was closed for several weeks this spring while new owners Matty O'Reilly and Tom Peterson proceeded with the behind-the-scenes facelift. O'Reilly and Peterson are building a reputation for resurrecting coffee houses. They employed the same successful food, wine, coffee and music formula at the 318 cafe on Water Street in Excelsior. The 318 daytime café and coffeehouse transforms into a "live music listening room by night." O'Reilly says he also plans to launch live music at the Aster this fall.
Realizing they had acquired a gem of a space along the Minneapolis riverfront, the new owners decided to encourage its appeal as a gathering spot. They kept the Aster's charming aspects including the exposed brick walls, antique espresso machine, and tree-lined patio courtyard. But they added a hand-carved wooden bar, floor-to-ceiling wine rack, beer taps and more dining tables. Customers can cozy up to the bar with a flatbread pizza and glass of wine.
Breakfast will be served each day. The newly posted breakfast menu includes waffles with banana/nutella or fresh berries and crème fraiche, and a variety of scrambled egg sandwich combinations including bacon, brie, ham, cheddar, spinach, roasted onion, and avocado. Fresh fruit, quiche and oatmeal are also available.
Lunch and dinner menu options include a variety of inventive small plates, cheese plates, salads, sandwiches and flatbread pizzas for $8.25. Sandwiches and salads range from $7 to $9. The creative tap beer menu includes local brews like Rush River, a chocolate oatmeal stout from River Falls, Wisc., Fulton, a sweet child of vine ipa from Minneapolis, and Furthermore, a knot stock pale ale from Black River Falls, Wisc. Click here to see the menus.
Rest assured, the new owners are not abandoning Aster's coffee house tradition. You can pick up an iced coffee, latte or cappuccino for $2 to $3 and select from at least two dozen loose leaf teas including herbal and organic options.
Opening: Sunday, May 23
What: Aster Café,
Where: 125 Main Street SE, Minneapolis Riverfront
Hours: Mon - Fri: 7:00 am - 12:00 am; Sat - Sun: 8:00 am - 12:00 am

The air will be filled with more golf balls than ever during the 20th anniversary edition of the Ottawa-Gatineau GolfExpo at the Ernst and Young Centre from March 8-9.
"There will be three simulators at the expo in addition to the five demo ranges, an instructional range courtesy of Mont-Cascades Golf Club and show-goers can hit balls at GolfZilla, a 15-foot high inflatable dinosaur, for a chance to win prizes," said Carol Ann Campbell, the expo's manager.
The simulator at the Executive Golf/Golf-O-Max exhibit will be the site of a closest-to-the pin contest and putting competitions throughout the expo are sure to draw plenty of participants.
The Ottawa Senators are playing a bigger role this year with an exciting and interactive exhibit area and there's the chance for folks who buy their expo tickets online to score seats to a game at the Canadian Tire Centre. Team mascot Spartacat will be on-hand Saturday putting smiles on the faces of attendees and their kids.
"We are holding a draw for online purchasers of full price adult tickets by March 7 to win two tickets to see the Sens in action," said Campbell. "The bonus grand prize will be the winner's child going for a Zamboni ride at the game."
The Seminar Stage will also be a hot spot when local instructor Kevin Haime gives tips on how to go lower, Todd Keirstead amazes with his trick shot repertoire and Flagstick magazine's Scott MacLeod brings everyone up-to-date on the latest in equipment.
Campbell says the 2014 expo features more prizes, giveaways, interactive events, contests and specials than ever before.
"Our Eastern Ontario Red Book will be on sale at $20 off, a price we've never put out there before," she said. "The savings amount to hundreds of dollars at local courses for only $30."
Parents are invited to bring their children to the Kids' Zone. This unique area is designed to keep the kids busy for hours having fun with representatives from the Golf Association of Ontario.

|Report Highlights Alcohol-Industry
Contributions to House Appropriations Committee Members
Campaign to Prevent Underage Drinking
At Risk as Part of Appropriations Bill
WASHINGTON - Members of the House Appropriations Committee received $294,690 in campaign contributions from the alcoholic-beverage industry in 1997 and 1998, according to a report released today by the nonprofit Center for Science in the Public Interest (CSPI). The House Appropriations Committee will soon vote on a provision to add messages on underage drinking to a federally funded youth anti-drug media campaign that will spend over $1 billion in five years.
In "Under the Influence: Alcoholic-Beverage Industry Political Contributions to Members of the Appropriations Committee of the U.S. House of Representatives," CSPI reports that Representative Anne Northup, a Republican from Louisville, Kentucky, received $38,264 from alcohol-beverage industry sources. Northup is expected to move to strike the provision concerning youth drinking when the Appropriations bill comes before the full Committee. During the period covered by the CSPI report, Northup received nearly twice as much money from alcohol sources as any other member of the Appropriations Committee. The National Beer Wholesalers Association, which has been leading the opposition to including an alcohol-prevention message in the youth anti-drug media effort run by the White House Office of National Drug Control Policy (ONDCP), contributed $10,000 to Northup's campaign in 1997 and 1998.
George Hacker, director of the Alcohol Policies Project at CSPI said, "We hope our report helps citizens understand how the booze industry tries to influence legislators. That's why some legislators seem more interested in defending the booze merchants than they are in preventing youths from using -- and abusing -- alcohol, the number-one drug in America."
The CSPI report, based on Federal Election Commission filings and data compiled by the Center for Responsive Politics, shows that more than half the alcoholic-beverage contributions to the 61-member Appropriations Committee went to eight members: Anne Northup (KY), Allen Boyd (FL), Michael Forbes (NY), Tom DeLay (TX), Kay Granger (TX), Jim Kolbe (AZ), Henry Bonilla (TX), George Nethercutt (WA).
The largest single alcoholic-beverage industry PAC contributor to the Appropriations Committee was the National Beer Wholesalers Association, which gave $99,500 during the two-year election cycle. Other major contributors included Philip Morris (Miller Brewing) which gave $83,000; the Wine and Spirits Wholesalers, $14,000; the Brown-Forman Corporation, $12,000; and the Wine Institute, $11,000.
The alcohol-prevention provision in the Appropriations bill, passed by the subcommittee on Treasury, Postal Service, and General Government, was proposed by Representatives Lucille Roybal-Allard (D-CA) and Frank Wolf (R-VA). It would allow the director of the ONDCP to begin the process of incorporating messages about underage drinking in the current youth anti-drug media campaign.
Alcohol is the drug of choice among young people in the United States and the one that causes the most devastation. It is an illegal drug for persons under the age of 21. It kills more than six times as many young people as all illicit drugs combined. Its use among young people dramatically increases the chances that they will try other drugs and become addicted to alcohol or other drugs as adults.
More than 80 groups support adding alcohol-prevention messages to the current anti-drug media campaign, including the American Academy of Pediatrics, American Medical Association, American Public Health Association, Mothers Against Drunk Driving, National Crime Prevention Council, National Council on Alcoholism and Drug Dependence, and the National Drug Prevention League.
Opponents of the measure include the Distilled Spirits Council of the United States, the Wine Institute, the Partnership for a Drug-Free America (a consortium of advertising agencies that helps coordinate the current anti-drug media campaign), the ONDCP, and the National Beer Wholesalers Association.

Sweeten your summer evenings with desserts that are perfect "on the Beach." It's really very simple to prepare a nutritious and delicious summery dessert with just a few ingredients. Here are 4 taste-tempting ideas:
Create a chilled yogurt parfait.
Creamy nonfat (0%) Greek yogurt makes a healthy substitute for ice cream in a parfait. On Phase 1, layer the yogurt with a quarter-cup of nuts of your choice. You can add a little vanilla, lemon, or almond extract, or another extract of your choice to the yogurt for flavor, sprinkle the parfait with lime or lemon zest, or drizzle it with sugar-free chocolate syrup, if desired. When you're on Phase 2, layer the Greek yogurt with fresh summer fruit, such as strawberries, blueberries, peaches, nectarines, or a combination.
Grill fruit kebabs. When on Phase 2, try grilling fruit. This caramelizes its natural sugars and enhances its flavor. You can halve nectarines, apricots, plums, mangoes, and peaches and grill, or cut the fruit into chunks and place them on either metal or wooden skewers (if you use wooden ones, soak them in water first for about 15 minutes). You can even grill strawberries, but keep in mind that softer fruits like strawberries and apricots will grill faster than firmer ones, like peaches and nectarines. Sprinkle the fruit with ground cinnamon, cardamom, or star anise, before grilling, or with chopped mint or lemon or lime zest after. You can also melt dark chocolate to use for dipping the grilled fruit.
Add lemon or lime to a ricotta crème.
Fresh lemon or lime juice and zest make great additions to many summer desserts. Try adding lemon or lime zest to our classic Phase 1 Vanilla Ricotta Crème dessert.
- Prepare a frozen dessert. Fresh fruit provides the base for a variety of frozen desserts that are super-refreshing on a warm summer evening. Use whatever fruit you prefer. Two of our favorites are Cool-Down-Quick Peach Pops, which will please adults and kids alike, and Cranberry Lime Granita, which is gorgeous spooned into festive glasses.

This summer, the Supreme Court released rulings on issues from the death penalty to gun control. One death that the Court failed to understand is the murder of Prince William Sound. This case began, of course, with the Exxon Valdez oil spill, the worst environmental disaster in American history. Thirteen hundred miles of shoreline were destroyed in 1989.
This event loomed over environmentalism in the 1990s as the prototypical example of petroleum gone wrong. Images of gulls, otters, and beaches covered in black lay like an oil slick on every video, magazine, or book that discussed environmental problems. The story of the Valdez spill ended this summer, and its final twists demonstrate that even though the environmental movement has built momentum and awareness, the Justices of the Supreme Court have not absorbed environmentalism's understanding of the value of an ecosystem. In the end, the justices failed to adequately value the destruction of Prince William Sound.
The court ruled correctly on the first issue of the case - was Exxon responsible for the spill? Exxon suggested the only fault was with Capt. Joseph Hazelwood, the drunken Valdez captain who'd left the bridge at the critical moment leading to the spill. The legal question is whether Exxon should be held liable for the actions of an employee who was violating company policy by drinking on duty. The court found that Exxon knew the captain was an alcoholic, and their decision to allow him to continue in his position meant they had to take responsibility for his actions.
Having resolved the question of whether Exxon bears legal responsibility for the spill, the Court turned to the issue of financial reparation. Exxon has already spent millions on direct remuneration for damages, and billions on clean up from the spill. This money, used for direct damages, was held to be appropriately spent.
The second sum of money Exxon contested, the far larger sum, was punitive damages. Punitive damages are intended to deter an agent from committing the crime in the future. According to Slate, Exxon argued that because they "did nothing malicious, nothing intentional, and that 'the company didn't stand to make $1 profit' from the spill, that they had already suffered enough."
Exxon claimed that because the spill was an accident, and not an intentional action intended to make money, they had no incentive to repeat the incident. Exxon, according to their lawyers, didn't need to be scared away from further spills, because they would avoid them on their own.
In response to this, those injured by the spill pointed out that Exxon's placement of an alcoholic captain at the helm constituted misconduct. Exxon had increased profits by not spending sufficiently on maintaining the safety of their operations. Punitive damages would ensure that Exxon alter their business practices to avoid future spills.
How much should those punitive damages be? The original jury that heard the case ruled it ought to be $5 billion, and a higher court reduced the punitive damages to $2.5 billion. How much is $2.5 billion for Exxon? The plaintiffs calculated that Exxon makes $2.5 billion in profits every three weeks.
How much has Exxon paid already? $507 million to compensate the 32,000 native Alaskans, averages about $15,000 in compensation per person. Exxon has spent $3.4 billion on fines and clean-up. About 4 weeks of profit.
So how did the majority of the Court find in this case? Justice Souter, writing for the 5 judges of the majority, presented a gripping description of the actions of the captain and his crew that led to the crash. The justice narrates events closely, telling how many drinks the captain had (5 double vodkas), and what his blood alcohol content was (.241). Justice Souter recounted where Hazelwood stood, when he went below decks, who was left at the bridge.
When the decision proceeds to describing the events after the spill, we lose the heart-wrenching detail. Justice Souter lists numbers. He lists the numbers of the laws that Exxon broke, and he lists the costs of the clean-up. What Justice Souter didn't list was the destruction to human life caused by the spill.
What was destroyed by the Valdez spill? The Prince William Sound, which was home to not only a vibrant marine ecosystem but also a precious human community as well. The video below shows a slice of life in that human community. With no roads in or out, the people of Cordova, in Prince William Sound, could leave the keys in their car's ignitions. But what was lost here is not just another rural village, but also a vital part of our nation's food system. As they say "The world is hungry and we feed them good food - the best. And that's really precious too." Instead of salmon, they have nothing but "Beaches and bays full of more oil than you can imagine."
The video was taken 15 years ago, in 1993. Since then, has Exxon cleaned up the beaches?
In the video below, high school students pour water on a supposedly clean beach, and watch an oil slick rise to the surface.
Instead of mentioning the destruction of this place, Justice Souter's learned opinion gave a remarkable history of punitive damages stretching back the code of Hammurabi, and including the creation of the American Constitution, and Anglo-American precedents and common law. He reviewed various American states' legal policies on punitive damages, as well as various nations' policies on punitive damages. He notes that many states and nations do not offer this opportunity for retribution and deterrence. Justice Souter expressed the Court's disgust and disagreement at the vast differences in punitive awards granted by different juries when considering cases which share basic facts. The court, he says, would like to eliminate unpredictable punitive awards by instituting more rigorous standards.
What should that standard be? Justice Souter, and the majority, settled on a one-to-one ration between damages and punishment. As Exxon had paid $507 million dollars in compensation, they should pay no more than $507 million dollars in punitive damages.
There is no adequate justification given for why punitive damages should bear a specific relation with compensatory damages. Justice Souter even points out that 'punitive damages are designed to punish and deter, they ought to take into account the defendants' financial condition and the magnitude of harm caused.'
The defendants' financial condition is flush, and the harm caused here massive. In his dissent, Justice Stevens wrote that "In light of Exxon's decision to permit a lapsed alcoholic to command a supertanker carrying tens of millions of gallons of crude oil though the treacherous waters of Prince William Sound, thereby endangering all of the individuals who depended upon the sound for their livelihoods, the jury could easily have given expression to its moral condemnation of Exxon's conduct in the form of this award."
For the final analysis of this decision, lets turn simply to Forbes magazine. A journal explicitly of wealth, the magazine gives us an unfettered analysis from the point of view of big business. The title of the article is: Exxon Ruling Big Win for Business. The article reads in part:
"ExxonMobil officials couldn't immediately be reached for comment. It's certainly a bittersweet victory--$507.5 million is a hefty sum for anyone--but consider what might have been had the justices let stand the lower court's $2.5 billion penalty award. What ExxonMobil must now pay also pales in comparison to the company's record first-quarter profits of $10.9 billion on $116.8 billion in revenues." -Forbes
Is this ruling enough to punish and deter Exxon? Does this ruling adequately compensate the people and ecosystems whose lives have been irrevocably altered by the spill? I'm afraid not.

Sebaceous Adenitis is an inflammatory disease process – directed against the skin's sebaceous glands, resulting in their destruction. Sebum production is compromised and scaly lesions result. These mostly affect the trunk, head and ears. Pruritis (itchiness) is common. Diagnosis can be confirmed by a punch biopsy of an affected part of the skin. Sebaceous Adenitis (SA) is a veterinarily acknowledged predisposition in vizslas. You can read more about it here
These are pictures of Maddy
And here she is after treatment – that did not involve drugs
Conventional treatment for SA involves the use of steroids but vizsla owners are reporting great successs with a less invasive approach.
Here is Tucker's story – told in December 2012 by Matt Zeeman – from US. He kindly acknowledges the help and support given to him by Heather Black and Joanne Woodhall – both of whom have generously shared information gleaned from the experience of successfully treating their own vizslas. With care and great patience this is a disease which can respond very well to topical treatments.
Tucker is my 6 year old male Vizsla that I purchased from a reputable and well respected Vizsla breeder in Bloomsburg, Pennsylvania, USA. Tucker has been a wonderful dog and companion throughout having him. After outgrowing the typical Vizsla period of 4 years of craziness, hes turned into a perfect gentleman of a dog and is a pleasure to be around. He has never had any major health problems. Every January we take him to the vet to get his annual vaccinations and hes had a broken nail once or twice but other than that, a healthy, fit and athletic Vizsla.
After 2 weeks, Tucker's condition had worsened considerably. He had lost almost all his hair on his head, was patchy on his body and his back was looking horrible. You could tell he was miserable and was grumpy. During this period, I stumbled upon a website with pictures of Maddy, a Vizsla with similar symptoms. I emailed the owner of the posting, DI Addicott, and asked for suggestions on how she treated her Vizsla. She put me in touch with Joanne Woodhall who recommended a holistic approach. The recommendations at first seemed odd, but at this point, I was willing to try anything to get my boy back to his normal self. We brought Tucker back for the skin sampling and the vet confirmed that it was S.A. and I advised her of the treatment I was going to try first before using any pharmaceutical remedies. We found the majority of the products at the Vitamin Shoppe and Super Market.
The regimen included the following:
Omega 3-6-9 Oil Pills
Cod Liver Oil Pills
Evening Primrose Oil Pills
These pills were given 2x a day (400mg each pill)
We also used Almond Oil and literally slathered his head and bare spots with this oil.
With his food, we gave him an entire can of Tuna in Oil every day, and on Sundays we would also give him a full can of Sardines in Oil.
Lastly, 1x a week we would give him a bath with Quistel Dog Shampoo/Conditioner. It is expensive, but its worth it.
Its now almost Christmas and Tucker is almost back to normal. I would say the hair regrowth is 100% on his body and about 90% on his head. Its a little thin around his ears but not much different from when he was a puppy.
The Sebaceous Adenitis condition is apparently rare, but it is something to be aware of. If you have a Vizsla and are seeing signs of hair loss, do not ignore it.
Thanks to Heather and Joanne, Tucker is himself again and they have saved me thousands in medical bills I would have had if I hadn't found their website. The pictures attached are the beginning of when he started showing symptoms, when it was at his worst, and now.
Owners – do not despair! We are always happy to put people in touch and also strongly advise joining a forum called CIMDA – Canine Immune Mediated Disease Awareness. Here is the link Also please take part in the AHT research in to the disease link

Shine Cafe Bar & Lounge
Lunch in Glen Waverley followed by Angels and Demons was on the cards for Ad Lib today. We had a "buy one main, get one free" voucher for Shine Cafe Bar & Lounge on Kingsway so we decided to give it a go. It was just after 1pm when we arrived to a VERY loud jazz band doing their thang by the front door. A quick survey of the restaurant showed that it was about 70% full but we were able to find a vacant booth in the middle of the dining room (I love cushy booths!). We noticed that it was rather dark inside, even though the sun was out. I think the owners wanted to make it "cool" to the young ones which I thought was a bit dumb because after all, it was only 1pm in GLEN WAVERLEY, ffs. Needless to say, reading the menu (and taking photos!) proved to be a bit of a task.
My crumbed calamari rings ($21.90) with a "botique" salad (nothing but a few greens, onions and tomatoes and Italian dressing) and shoestring fries. There was also a smidgen of tartare sauce in a scallop shell – I couldn't decide whether to find that cute or just plain lame. I suppose my meal was okay but for $21.90, it felt a bit steep. The same meal would have only cost about $15 in Flinders Lane, I reckon.
Adam's "Deeelicious lamb gyros" ($24.90) – no really, it actually says "deeelicious" on the menu. I thought my meal was just "meh," but Adam's was of suckage standard. The "wood-fired" pita bread was stale, the feta cheese in the Greek salad smelt like it was off and the lamb was overcooked and tired.
The total bill would have been $55.90 (including a glass of sav blanc for me and a short macc for Adam) but because my main was free, Adam only paid $34. We both agreed that while $55.90 was way too much for food of this standard, $34 was still too expensive. Bleh food, instrusive jazz music, a dark dining room. I suppose the service wasn't TOO bad except for the fact that our waters (which we asked for prior to ordering) never did arrive. Sigh. I guess it was good to go to Glen Waverley to try non-Asian food but looking back, I would have rather much have dumplings next door for less than $20!
"So that's where Shine Cafe Bar & Lounge have been storing the feta cheese…"
Angels and Demons. Yeah, I've always thought that this book would make a better movie than The Da Vinci Code and after watching it today, I was pleasantly surprised. Okay, so it's not going to win any Oscars but it wasn't as bad as I thought. Sure, I hated that one minute, they're running around Rome and the next minute, Tom Hanks is reciting the history behind every stupid statute. While all the facts and stories sound interesting on paper, it just sounds dull and disjointed on screen.
On the other hand, I liked that the script was tighter than TDVC and I liked seeing Ayelet Zurer as Vittoria Vetra. She may not be the hottest brunette in the world but she has this earthy beauty that I admire. I was also glad that she and Tom Hanks, whom I will never EVER accept as Robert Langdon, did not have a romantic relationship in the film because clearly there was no chemistry between them. To have her kiss Tom-as-Robert would just be forced and soo ewwww (I mean, really, who in their right mind would kiss Tom Hanks?). I would probably only recommend you watch this movie if you've read the book because it does get confusing especially to those who have no idea what the story is about… though on second thoughts, Adam never read the book but he seemed engrossed in the movie the whole time so I guess it couldn't have been THAT bad .
11 Comments on Shine Cafe Bar & Lounge
I haven't read the books! So I wont watch it. I'm not a fan of tom hanks either!Yeah.. I think $25 for chips and calamari is a bit steep!Reply
@peach_water – Oh, I liked Tom Hanks in other roles (Forrest Gump, The Green Mile, Philadelphia to name a few) but he was always the wrong choice for TDVC and AAD, in my opinion…And I think he should be banned from doing rom-coms too, haha.Reply
it's very overpriced :S you should try bluefish in degraves LOVEEEE that placeReply
I got food poisioning at bluefish before and had to work an entire close shift with the effects of my lunch there.Reply
'Ave not seen Angels & Demons but gotta say hated TDVC !!!And yes , Tom Hanks is just soooooooo wrong as R.Langdon !Reply
i love blufish too…but it's the Chicken Burger I like not their fish n chips! hahaha love the way tom shows us where shine cafe store their feta cheese! XDReply
i didnt like angels and demons (the movie)…they missed so much from the book!Reply
the only thing i used to like at shine is that jambalaya!! But they have taken it off the menu so i have no reason to go anymore! i'm looking forward to see Angels and Demons seeing the book is my favourite out of all the Dan Brown stuff. I really didn't like Da Vinci Code the movie though.Reply
And what did I tell you about Shine Lib???:PReply
Hrmmm come to think of it, I might have been a tad too generous. 6.0/10.Reply
The calamari rings there looked rather standard and is rather expensive as well. =SAngels and Demons wasn't too bad, and I haven't read the book either. I also agree in regards to Tom Hanks not suiting the part for both TDVC and AAD. Maybe George Clooney may fit the bill…lolReply

19:07, UK, Sunday 27 November 2011
Two clubbers suspected of taking ecstasy have died after attending separate dance music events at London's Alexandra Palace this weekend, police have said.
The men, aged 20 and 21, were admitted to hospital this morning and died within seven hours of each other.
The 21-year-old is believed to have attended an all-night party called Bass Culture, which started on Friday and continued into Saturday.
The 20-year-old attended a different night called Epic, starting Saturday night and running into Sunday.
A second 20-year-old man who was also believed to have attended the event on Saturday night has also been admitted to hospital and remains in a serious but stable condition.
The Metropolitan Police have said the cause of the deaths and injury is yet to be established, but that one line of inquiry was that the men may have taken illegal substances, possibly MDMA - the chemical name for ecstasy.
They have issued an urgent appeal for other clubbers who believe they may have taken the substance at Alexandra Palace this weekend to seek medical attention.
Detective Inspector Rita Tierney said: "Although it is too early to say what caused these men's health to deteriorate, we are investigating the possibility that illegal drugs may have been involved.
"If you have taken what you believed to be MDMA, or any other substance, during this weekend's events at Alexandra Palace, and are now feeling unwell, I would strongly urge you to attend your nearest hospital as soon as possible."
Anyone with information that could assist the investigation is urged to call 0208 345 0737.

1995 Inductees: Joe Aline, Dr. David Greenwood, Steve Johnstone, Robert O'Donnell, Larry Schwenke
Joe Aline
A native of Great Falls and graduate of CM Russell High School, Joe Aline lettered all four years at NMC and compiled an outstanding career record of 109 wins - 22 loses. Joe qualified for NAIA national tournament honors by placing eighth in 1982 and fifth in 1984. He was the first two-time All-American and first Academic All-American at Northern. He serves as assistant wrestling coach at Great Falls High and was unable to personally accept the award because he was with the Bisons at the State Wrestling Tournament in Billings. His brother, Terry, who was also an outstanding wrestler at Northern, accepted on his behalf.
Dr. David Greenwood
Dr. David Greenwood established Northern's wrestling program in 1970 and produced eight NAIA All-Americans during his tenure, leading his teams to Frontier Conference championships in 1976 and 1984. He also coached Northern's only undefeated dual meet season at 10-0 in 1984. He retired from the college faculty in 1989 as a professor of health, physical education and recreation.
Steve Johnstone
Cut Bank native, Steve Johnstone was a walk-on player his freshman year at Northern and then went on to letter in basketball, baseball and golf. He was voted first-team All-Conference as a junior and was named to "Who's Who" in college athletes his senior year. As a senior and team captain, he averaged over 22 points per game and remains among the leading seasonal scorers in Northern's record books.
Bob O'Donnell
Havre High School graduate Bob O'Donnell captained the Northern basketball team during the 1947-48 and 48-49 seasons and made All-American both years at a time when NMC was a two-year school competing against four-year schools.
Larry Schwenke
Larry Schwenke's 13 varsity letters have distinguished him as the most active athlete in Northern's history, a record that will probably remain unbroken since football, baseball, track and golf are no longer varsity sports at the University. He was All-Conference in football from 1965 to 1968, and was named to "Outstanding College Athletes of America" in 1969.

Bike Brands Creating Denver Cycling Hotspot
Submitted by David on
DENVER, CO (BRAIN) — Six bike companies — perhaps to be joined soon by a few more — are co-habitating in a Denver building, creating a destination hotspot for area bikers.
The tenants at 7700 Cherry Creek South Drive include (in alphabetical order): Alchemy Bicycle Company/Ethic Industries (a high-end frame maker, recently relocated from Austin, Texas); Chroma Cafe (a coffee shop); Primal Wear (the cycling clothing brand); Shama Denver (a bike retail and fit business); The Pro's Closet (an eBay seller specializing in bike gear); and Tru Fit Training (a bike training studio).
"We have created a complete destination for both recreational and more serious cyclists and runners to have a place to call home in Denver," said Matt Simpson, president and managing partner of Alchemy Bicycle Company/Ethic Industries.
"We intentionally created this space along one of the major bike routes in and out of Denver. It offers space for coaching, training, professional bike fitting or just a place to meet friends over a cup of coffee."

How can I show $$\log(1+\frac{X}{A})\log(1+\frac{Y}{B})\ge \log(1+\frac{X}{B})\log(1+\frac{Y}{A})$$ if $X\ge Y>0$ and $A\ge B>0$?

Given $\alpha \geq 1$, define $f_\alpha(u) = \frac{\log(1+\alpha u)}{\log(1+u)}$ for $u>0.$
Show that $f_\alpha$ is an non-increasing.
Then if $\alpha = X/Y$, let $u=Y/A$ and $u'=Y/B$. So $u\leq u'$, and, since $f_\alpha$ is non-increasing, $f_\alpha(u)\geq f_\alpha(u')$. Expand that out, you get:
$$\frac{\log(1+X/A)}{\log(1+Y/A)} \geq \frac{\log(1+X/B)}{\log(1+Y/B)}$$
which is equivalent to the result you want.
So you only need to show that $f_\alpha$ is non-increasing, or, alternatively, that $f_\alpha'(u)\leq 0$ for all u>0.
$$f_\alpha'(u) = \frac{\alpha(1+u)\log(1+u) - (1+\alpha u)\log(1+\alpha u)}{(1+u)(1+\alpha u)\log^2(1+u)}$$
So you need to show that $\alpha(1+u)\log(1+u) \leq (1+\alpha u)\log(1+\alpha u)$ when $\alpha\geq 1$ and $u > 0$.
This can be thought of as saying that $$g_u(z)=\frac{(1+uz)\log(1+uz)}{z}$$ has the property that $g_u(1)\leq g_u(\alpha)$ when $\alpha\geq 1$.
Now we show that $g_u$ is non-decreasing.
$$g_u'(z) = -\frac{(1+uz)\log(1+uz)}{z^2} + \frac{u\log(1+uz) + u}{z}$$
which simplifies to:
But $w\geq\log(1+w)$ for all $w\geq 0$. Setting $w=uz$, we see that $g_u'(z)$ is non-negative when $z>0$, and thus, in particular, $g_u(1)\leq g_u(\alpha)$ when $\alpha\geq 1$ and $u>0$. So $f_u'$ is non-positive, so $f_u$ is non-increasing, and we are done.

The Stanford Cardinal (10-1, 7-1 Pac-10), ranked seventh in this week's AP poll, will face the Oregon State Beavers (5-5, 4-3 Pac-10) in the final regular season game of the 2010 season Saturday afternoon at Stanford Stadium/Foster Field (50,000). The game will kick off at 4:30 p.m. and be televised by Versus. Both teams are coming off impressive victories last Saturday. Stanford downed California, 48-14, in Berkeley while Oregon State routed USC, 36-7 in Corvallis. A win Saturday would give Stanford a school-record 11 wins on the season.

Stanford held the upperhand in the series prior to Oregon State's recent success, holding a 23-3-1 advantage in 27 games played beginning with the 1969 contest in Corvallis.

This is the second installment to my 10th Anniversary Week-long Series of Posts. This time, I'll be posting the words I promised to Randy when we got married almost four years ago. It took me a long time to say the right words. And when inspiration hit me, I knew this was it. I saw several people dabbing their eyes with their hankies when I uttered these words*:
Once upon a time, I was a little girl obsessed with fairy tales. I used to dream of a handsome and intelligent prince whose mere sight would make my heart melt, and with whom I will share my feelings, hopes, and dreams. [Read more…]

Healthy Foods Hard to Find in Poor Neighborhoods
According to a new study in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition retailers in low income communities are less likely to sell healthy food, such fruits and vegetables. Stores in wealthier areas tend to offer healthier fare. Researchers examined survey data from 759 Baltimore, Maryland residents and discovered 24% of blacks lived in neighborhoods with limited access to healthy food, compared to only 5% of whites. Experts propose offering tax breaks to stores in poorer areas for selling healthier food or distributing cash subsides so residents can buy fruits and veggies; HealthDay News reports.
Sadly, this predicament is very common. More and more supermarkets are moving out of New York City, leaving low income residents with small bodegas and drugs stores mostly selling junk food and few, if any, fresh fruits and vegetables. To make matters worse, many of these neighborhoods are already wrought with fast food, deepening local epidemics of heart disease and diabetes.
In related news, people living in communities with a lot of fast food restaurants were found to have an increased risk of stroke. Overall likelihood was 13% higher and increased 1% per restaurant.

College Hockey:Plattsburgh Edges Past RIT
ROCHESTER, N.Y. — RIT and Plattsburgh played a seesaw affair tonight to renew their long standing rivalry. Neither team was able to take control of the game until Plattsburgh finally pulled away with an empty net goal by Dave Friel at the 18:44 mark of the third period.
However, like most of this season, the victory didn't come easy for Plattsburgh. RIT pulled back to within just a single goal deficit just eleven seconds later. Darren Doherty scored off a faceoff deep in the Cardinals zone, as RIT was skating with an extra attacker after pulling their netminder.
The Tigers pulled the goaltender again in the last minute of play, but were unable to score again to tie the game. Plattsburgh held on for a wild 5-4 win.
"Like most game with Plattsburgh, it came down to doing the little things right, and some mental toughness," said RIT coach Wayne Wilson. "They did it, and we didn't."
Early in the first period, it was RIT taking the body and Plattsburgh taking the puck. The Cardinals were much better at moving the puck forward in to the attacking zone, while it seemed at times that RIT was content to throw the big checks.
Even with those strategies, it was RIT that struck first 4:18 in to the game. Plattsburgh turned over the puck as they were trying to break out of its own zone, and the puck squirted out to the high slot. Michael Tucciarone was there for the Tigers, unmarked, and rifled a one-time shot past Cardinals netminder Craig Neilson for the goal.
RIT's goal was short-lived, however, as the Cardinals took advantage of a similar mistake in the Tigers' zone just fifty seconds later. A sloppy Tiger clearing pass ended up on Plattsburgh's Shane Remenda's stick low in the slot. Remenda crashed the RIT net and poked the puck past RIT goaltender George Eliopoulos for the goal at 5:08.
That goal gave Plattsburgh even more momentum, and the Cardinals were buzzing the RIT net. They took their first lead of the night at 7:38, when T.J. Cooper one-timed the puck through traffic down the slot for Cardinals second goal of the night.
Two goals in the first eight minutes of the game had the RIT crowd wondering why people have been talking about Plattsburgh's difficulty in scoring goals so far this season.
The fans at the game saw a little of Plattsburgh's frustrations later in the first period. Sloppy Tiger defense gave the Cardinals several first rate scoring changes, but bad luck and some stellar goaltending by Eliopoulos kept Plattsburgh from widening its lead.
The Cardinals almost scored a shorthanded goal in the waning seconds of the period, as it appeared to trickle almost over the goal line. But Eliopoulos drew the puck back out, and the referee gave the washout sign. The period ended with Plattsburgh holding a 2-1 lead.
RIT changed its strategy during the intermission, and played the puck more in the second stanza. It paid off during the first half of the period, as the Tigers tallied a pair of power play goals to retake the lead.
The first goal was set up 1:48 in to the period as Ian Fazzi weaved the puck around a Plattsburgh defender near the blue line. Fazzi wristed the puck low towards the crease in front of the net, and Ricky Walton was there for RIT to deflected it past Neilson for the goal.
The Tigers scored on their third power play of the period as well to retake the lead 3-2. Tucciarone scored his second goal of the game at 9:42 with a quick wrist shot that found the top left corner of the net over Neilson's blocker.
Unlike the first period, RIT's one-goal lead last for a little over four minutes this time. Plattsburgh tied the game up 3-3 at 13:54 off an odd-man rush. Ryan Busby carried the puck behind the RIT net and then around the far side before he spotted linemate Paul Kelly on the far post. Busby hit Kelly with the pass and Kelly finished the play to score the goal.
The remainder of the period saw both teams with a handful of quality scoring opportunities, but the goaltenders answered the call each time.
Early in the third period, neither team was able to mount much offense as play got a little sloppy. By mid-period, Plattsburgh had gained a bit of an edge, and started to carry play and establish a presence in the Tigers zone.
Plattsburgh had another great chance with 3:29 remaining in the tied contest while skating shorthanded. The Cardinals had pinned RIT deep in its own zone, when Plattsburgh chipped the puck toward the goal. The puck squirted between Eliopoulos' pads and settled just short of the goal line. As players from both sides scrambled towards loose puck, but Eliopoulos jumped on it first.
However, less than a minute later, the relentless Plattsburgh penalty killing paid dividends. Paul Kelly picked the pocket of RIT defenseman Ian Fazzi deep in the Tigers zone. Kelly skated laterally across the slot, got Eliopoulos to commit, and roofed the puck over the sprawled netminder to score a shorthanded goal at 17:28 for his second goal of the game.
After what had been a rather sedate third period, the last two minutes of play were a wild affair. RIT pulled goaltender Eliopoulos with 1:27 remaining, but Plattsburgh's Dave Friel scored an empty net goal just eleven seconds later to build the only two goal lead of the game.
RIT narrowed the lead back to a single goal at the 18:55 mark with an extra attacker goal by Darren Doherty, but that was as close as the Tigers could make it. Plattsburgh was happy to skate off the ice with a 5-4 win.

But the biggest winner could be Bank of America, which will issue the prepaid cards and stands to collect an untold amount in fees from card users and merchants who own the stores where the cards may be used. The arrangement allows the Charlotte, N.C. bank to charge some card users fees as high as $10 per transaction. And unlike ordinary debit cards linked to a bank account, there are no caps on the fees banks can charge merchants when customers use prepaid debit cards.
The South Carolina Department of Revenue's decision is part of a larger movement inside government. In 41 states, unemployment benefits are issued via prepaid debit card. Nearly every state issues food stamp and cash welfare benefits on prepaid debit or similar cards. Even the federal government will stop issuing traditional social security checks early next year. Government agencies stand to save millions while banks stand to gain much more.

Creative Window Types for the Hallway
Let the outside world in with hallway windows. Photo Credit: byrdiegyrl
Ever walked down the winding corridor of an aquarium? While you were captivated by the fascinated creatures swimming on the other side of the glass, you probably didn't think about the fact that you were gazing through one large hallway window. Now picture your hallway at home as a walk through an aquarium, only your view is above ground. What types of windows would you want in your hallway? Your window into the world beyond your walls.
If you are lucky enough to have a hallway with an exterior wall, do not be fooled by the stigma that hallways are merely passageways—"nothing to see here" sorts of places. A hallway window is an excellent way to give the home an open feel or accent the overall interior design.
Fixed picture windows can span the length of the hallway. Picture windows tend to be shorter—three to four feet tall at most—but quite long. Hallways are common locations for family pictures, so what better place for a picture window? They can offer great views of the surrounding landscape or a courtyard or alcove garden.
Porthole windows or small hexagonal windows add a unique, seafaring touch to a hallway. They provide some limited light, but these windows are more about mood and style than quantity of light.
Windowscapes replace the entire wall with window glass, taking the panoramic view to its limit. They are fairly rare in hallways—much more common to beach houses and homes with vista views—but in certain situations a glass hallway is just the ticket.
Oriel or garden windows can add some light and life to the hallway. Oriels are like miniature bay windows in that they protrude out from the wall, but they are much smaller. They are supported by brackets and cantilever out, providing a small shelf for windowsill plants and knick-knacks.
Glass block windows offer diffuse light and some fairly impressive imagery on close-in corridor walls when the sun is shining bright.
The general rule for hallway windows is that they be long, so that they add a sense of length and breadth to the hallway and the home as a whole. But there are no penalties for breaking these rules. Hallway windows facilitate a bright transfer between different sections of the house and should reflect the personality of the whole.
Ideas for hallway windows come fairly easy, getting them installed requires the right contractor.

Linh Nguyen majored in accounting because she loves working with numbers and the accounting field has a hot market in the employer world.
Linh graduated from Saint Anselm in 2013 and now is earning her master's degree in accounting at the University of Rochester in New York.
While attending Saint Anselm, Linh interned at two different companies to get some real life experience. The first was at HSBC Bank in the personal financial service department. She then worked as an accounting intern at Phillips Electronics. Linh considers her studies and interning opportunities at Saint Anselm top of the line.
"My accounting education measures up with the best programs around and includes all the same courses you'll find at larger schools," Linh says. She believes the biggest difference between Saint Anselm and normal business schools is the variety of courses and subjects offered.
"Saint Anselm College blended liberal arts with accounting which I liked because I didn't want all my courses in one area." Not only is this multitude of learning interesting but it also has given her a background in communication, both oral and written.
"My liberal arts education has already paid off because the conversations I've had with employers have gone way beyond the accounting topic."
After her master's degree, Linh hopes to earn her CPA and eventually work for one of the big four public accounting firms. Linh has big dreams and like the numbers she works with the possibilities are infinite.
