defending your right to make a difference
I spent 16 hours in a library a week ago and didn't pick up a single book... For you.
apple pie anyone?
I'll be selling apple pie slices from 9:00 to noon next Saturday the 20th at Retzer Nature Center's 22nd Annual Apple Harvest Festival, and you're invited to buy some. Keep me busy.
runnin' on red
My oldest says people in Waukesha sure run a lot of red lights. I said that's nothing compared to Milwaukee.
shower time for Swiss swine
Thanks to a new 175 page animal rights law in Switzerland pigs now have a legal right to shower and freshen up after getting muddy. What about privacy? Will they have individual stalls along with their choice of scented beauty bars? Next time this law comes up for review maybe someone could suggest aromatherapy and bubbles in the bathwater.
the fuzzy line between form and function
The Nineteenth Annual Waukesha Art Fest couldn't have had a better weekend. The weather was as gorgeous as some of the works. With cool temps and a breeze it was perfect bike riding weather, so Schwinn and I swerved our way past multiple potholes to see what was going on in Cutler Park yesterday.

...the early-to-mid-80s Reds every day and Jay Bruce is doing a darn-fine Paul Householder impersonation.
Never mind me. I just paid to watch a lineup with Valentin, Keppinger, Patterson & Hannigan in the 5 thru 8 holes and I'm a tad bitter.
...the early-to-mid-80s Reds every day and Jay Bruce is doing a darn-fine Paul Householder impersonation.
Never mind me. I just paid to watch a lineup with Valentin, Keppinger, Patterson & Hannigan in the 5 thru 8 holes and I'm a tad bitter.
I understand. We've all seen ths before. Over and over since 2001, but for some reason, I have a little bit of hope. Hear me out...
The old Reds--you know the ones with Dunn and Griffey and Freel and Hopper and EdwinE, and David Ross--the team created that didn't even have a winning record has a good chance of being gone. Regardless of our own personal favorites (and Dunn and Griffey were two of mine so much), it didn't work. Finally, we have a front office who is willing to change some things. Maybe it will make things worse, but how much worse can they be? Losing is losing.
As for your experience, Valentin needs to go as he's needed to be gone for years. Keppinger is only a bench player and my guess is everyone from Dusty to Walt to everyone else knows this. He's just the next available warm body that is available on a team so thin that we didn't employ a backup shortstop, but had three catchers. Go figure. Patterson was the answer to the question that wasn't asked. Griffey was in right and Dunn was in left, and Freel was a loose cannon (per an extension that wasn't warranted), so we hired good old .258 hitting Corey to man center and provide some defense. Then he goes on to hit on the interstate. Very predictable.
Hannigan is the result of a team who had three catchers who couldn't catch. Hannigan will never be a starting MLB catcher on any team but this one. Ross was the answer to a question (once again) that wasn't asked. Poor talent evaluation, but others will laud his high OBP while he struck out against any right hander who could throw a ball. And his inability to catch a ball at the plate on a close play or his refusal to block the plate will always be ignored by some. Just like a lot of other flaws.
I don't think we'll see these kind of mistakes in the future. Sure, they should have kept Dunn as a centerpiece, but I like what I see otherwise. Hope? Maybe, but the winter is paramount in what this team will be. This season is lost (and I'll admit, I wouldn't drive the 350 miles to see them today, just like I didn't last year or most years at this time), but maybe, just maybe we're going to see some differences. It may fall on its face, but I somehow don't think so. Of course, we live in hopes, but hope left town some time ago and it's late. We have to hold onto something. Foolishly in some cases.
"You only have to bat a thousand in two things; flying and heart transplants. Everything else you can go 4-for-5."
-Beano Cook
This team is unwatchable. I tried for about 4 innings today and I just couldn't take it anymore.
"My mission is to be the ray of hope, the guy who stands out there on that beautiful field and owns up to his mistakes and lets people know it's never completely hopeless, no matter how bad it seems at the time. I have a platform and a message, and now I go to bed at night, sober and happy, praying I can be a good messenger." -Josh Hamilton

SYRACUSE, N.Y. - Republican Party members in the 24th Congressional District voted to challenge U.S. Rep. Dan Maffei, D-Syracuse, with a former federal prosecutor who says fighting gangs has made him tough, quick on his feet and able to talk to anyone.
John Katko bested six other candidates to win the designation of party members in the four counties that make up the Syracuse-based district. GOP committee members voted Saturday at the Palace Theater in Syracuse.
"I can no longer stand on the sidelines and watch what is happening," Katko said. "I've always told my sons that if you're going to talk the talk, you need to walk the walk."
Katko left his job to run for office.
Onondaga County Republicans also voted for former county prosecutor Rob DeMarco to run against Assemblyman Al Stirpe .They chose DeWitt Police Chief Gene Conway to run for Onondaga County sheriff, likely putting an end to opponent John Balloni's career as deputy chief in the sheriff's office.
The Congressional designation held the most drama of the contested races Saturday with an original slate of eight candidates. The closely watched district has flipped from Republican to Democrat to Republican to Democrat over the last three terms.
Onondaga County Republican Chairman Tom Dadey did not release the vote totals, but Katko won more than 50 percent of the vote - a requirement to win the party's designation.
John Lemondes, a retired Army colonel, came in second.
Five other candidates almost tied for last, Dadey said.
They were Syracuse economist Janet Burman, Syracuse lawyer Rick Guy, Syracuse businessman Ian Hunter, Cayuga County accountant Jason Lesch, and Randy Wolken, president of the Manufacturers Association of Central New York.
Jane Rossi, a Rome businesswoman and the ex-wife of Oneida Indian Nation leader Ray Halbritter, dropped out of the race suddenly before the vote. The night before, she said she would skip the party convention and pass petitions for a June primary. Saturday morning, she said she would not run.
Lemondes said he had not decided whether to pass petitions for a primary. He would need 1,250 signatures and could start collecting them Tuesday.
Onondaga County Republican Chairman Tom Dadey said Lemondes made a strong impression in a short time. Lemondes had a specific five-point plan on the topics of national security, economic security, mismanagement of the national debt, energy security and health care. He had support among conservatives, who chose him in a straw poll after a forum last Thursday.
Dadey is hoping to avoid a primary election, which would drain resources from the already disadvantaged Republicans.
Maffei had more than $900,000 in his campaign account as of Jan. 1, according to the latest report he filed with the Federal Election Commission. Maffei is raising money at a rate of about $100,000 a month.
The 2012 campaign for the 24th District was the most expensive on record for a Central New York congressional seat. Maffei and former Rep. Ann Marie Buerkle, R-Onondaga Hill, each raised more than $2 million. When combined with money that flowed into the race from independent political groups, spending totaled about $10 million.
In his acceptance speech, Katko spoke directly to Lemondes when he said he hoped the party could be unified in fighting Maffei.
"I hope you rally behind us," Katko said.
Hunter said he would try to collect enough signatures for a primary. Last year, Dadey went to court to kick Hunter off the ballot in a much smaller district, in the race for Syracuse mayor.
As they battled for the party's nod, the candidates for Congress were cordial to each other and kept the message on President Barack Obama, Washington and Maffei.
The race for Onondaga County sheriff was more heated. Sheriff Kevin Walsh is retiring after 20 years.
Walsh has been grooming his second-in-command John Balloni for the job. He brought Balloni to the office from the 911 center to serve as a deputy chief - the face of the sheriff's office in negotiations with the county legislature.
But that did not seem to work in Balloni's favor Saturday.
Onondaga County Legislator Pat Kilmartin, the Republican floor leader, nominated Conway for the job at Saturday's party convention and suggested Balloni has been part of the problem in the sheriff's office.
The audience responded with boos.
Balloni said after the vote he would not seek a primary. He said the party vote was not even close.
Balloni serves in an appointed position, so this likely means the end of his career in the sheriff's office.
For the state Assembly, Republicans designated DeMarco to challenge Stirpe.
Vince Giordano, a Manlius town councilor and the owner of the popular Sno Top ice cream stand, also asked for the nomination. He is not expected to force a primary.
The party also designated Rick Zaccaria to challenge Assemblyman Bill Magnarelli, D-Syracuse.
Sen. John DeFrancisco, Assemblyman Will Barclay and Assemblyman Gary Finch also won the party designation without opposition.
Dadey is still looking for candidates to challenge Sen. Dave Valesky, D-Oneida, and Assemblyman Sam Roberts, D-Syracuse.

Matthew's parents are worried. At eleven, he's much too old to have an imaginary friend, yet they find him talking to and arguing with a presence that even he admits is not physically there. This presence - Chocky - causes Matthew to ask difficult questions and say startling things: he speaks of complex mathematics and mocks human progress. Then, when Matthew does something incredible, it seems there is more than the imaginary about Chocky. Which is when others become interested and ask questions of their own: who is Chocky? And what could it want with an eleven-year-old boy? A story of innocence and alien contact, Chocky is a sinister tale of manipulation and experimentation from afar.
"synopsis" may belong to another edition of this title.
Matthew, they thought, was just going through a phase of talking to himself. And, like many parents, they waited for him to get over it, but it started to get worse. Mathew's conversations with himself grew more and more intense - it was like listening to one end of a telephone conversation while someone argued, cajoled and reasoned with another person you couldn't hear. Then Matthew started doing things he couldn't do before, like counting in binary-code mathematics. So he told them about Chocky - the person who lived in his head.About the Author:
John Wyndham Parkes Lucas Benyon Harris was born in 1903, the son of a barrister. He tried a number of careers including farming, law, commercial art and advertising, and started writing short stories, intended for sale, in 1925. From 1930 to 1939 he wrote stories of various kinds under different names, almost exclusively for American publications, while also writing detective novels. During the war he was in the Civil Service and then the Army. In 1946 he went back to writing stories for publication in the USA and decided to try a modified form of science fiction, a form he called 'logical fantasy'. As John Wyndham he wrote The Day of the Triffids and The Kraken Wakes (both widely translated), The Chrysalids, The Midwich Cuckoos (filmed as Village of the Damned), The Seeds of Time, Trouble with Lichen, The Outward Urge (with Lucas Parkes) and Chocky. He died in March 1969.

Dressing for work can be a challenge for some women. You want to look professional, but you want to feel pretty as well. The best way to pull together a great work look is to incorporate skirts that are flattering and conservative at the same time, but aren't lacking in fashion. The first rule to remember when you're choosing skirts for work is length. A short skirt is seen as very unprofessional, but you may feel dowdy in a long skirt. Meet in the middle with a knee length skirt that is still cute and trendy but not too short or inappropriate.
Go one step further and pick the proper skirt for your body type whether you are petite, tall, or curvy. There's a perfect skirt for every body type that will not only look amazing but feel wonderful too. Pretty soon you will be looking forward to getting dressed for work in all of your cute skirts. One type of skirt you should never wear to work is a mini skirt; leave those for after hours. This guide contains suggestions on which types of skirts are best for the office environment including styles, blouse, and shoe suggestions, which will make purchasing skirts online a breeze.
Deciding Which Styles Best Suit You
The process of skirt shopping can seem overwhelming when you are not sure which style is best suited for you. When it comes to choosing the proper skirt there are many factors to consider such as length, shape, colour, fit, and overall look. It's best ahead of time to research the different styles listed below to see which best your overall needs, and personality.
Style 1: Pleated Skirt
Pleated skirts are very on trend right now. When you hear the words pleated skirt, you may think of schoolgirl uniforms, but pleated skirts have grown up and are a fabulous way to add something to your work wardrobe and liven it up a bit. For best results, wear a pleated skirt with a thin sweater or blouse tucked in to the waist. This creates a flattering hourglass effect.
Women that are curvier may want to opt for slimming pleats that lie flat, and women that are small and petite and wish to add curves may want to choose accordion style pleats, which add some fullness to the figure. For work, wear a pleated skirt with ballet flats or heels, but never any type of boot.
Style 2: Pencil Skirt
Pencil skirts are flattering, typically knee length, and create a beautiful silhouette for women that are curvy and want to feel feminine. Pencil skirts can come in many types and can be peplum skirts, have ruffles or bows, or simply be straight skirts. Pencil skirts fit close to the body and are also called straight skirts. They may also have a slit in the back or side, and if they do, make sure it's not too high.
Some pencil skirts are high waisted, giving the woman the illusion of a smaller waist, which can be very flattering. Typically, tucking a blouse into a pencil skirt is going to be more flattering than an untucked skirt. Wear a pencil skirt with a classic pair of heels and a blazer or jacket for a sleek, work appropriate look.
Style 3: A-Line Skirt
An A-line skirt is the perfect way to disguise large hips. The skirt fits snugly around the waist then flares out around the hips and thighs, creating a flattering and very feminine shape for the wearer. A-line skirts look great when paired with a cardigan and boots in the cooler months, and also look very fashionable with a tucked in button down blouse.
Add some interest to your outfit with a scarf or some coloured or patterned tights.. A-line skirts can be lightweight for summer, or heavier for winter, so this type of skirt can be worn year round. It's the perfect skirt for a woman with an hourglass figure that may not want to show off all her curves in a pencil skirt, yet still wants to look pretty and conservative for work.
Style 4: Maxi Skirt
Maxi skirts are those long, beautiful skirts that short women avoid. This is generally a style that looks best on tall women, and can be worn to work when paired with the right top. Wear a flowing maxi skirt with a button up top that fits well, or pair a jacket and camisole with your maxi skirt. For a feminine look, stick to ballet flats or heels with a maxi skirt.
When it comes to maxi skirts, since there is already so much material involved, it's best to stay away from skirts that are too brightly coloured, overly patterned, or too floral. A simple, solid coloured maxi skirt is best and won't overwhelm your body. If you like patterns and prints, just wear a top that has a pattern on it, and leave the maxi skirt plain.
Style 5: Midi Skirts
Midi skirts are perfect for work. What is a midi skirt? It's also known as a mid-length skirt, which falls below the knee but above the ankle. It's a respectable length for a work skirt, and midi skirts come in many styles and cuts including pencil skirts and asymmetrical skirts. Wear heels with a midi skirt to enhance your legs, and on top, just about anything will work.
Try a professional looking blazer with a midi pencil skirt for a classic, traditional work look, or pair a pretty turtleneck or cardigan sweater with a midi skirt and heels. Midi skirts also come in prints, which should be paired with a solid coloured top and dark stockings in the winter and bare legs in the summer depending on your work dress code.
Style 6: Tiered Skirt
A tiered skirt is very ladylike and full. Tiered skirts are layered skirts that either have individual layers or the illusion of layers created by the sectioning of the skirt into different tiers. Tiered skirts can either be long, short, full, or straight, come in a variety of designs, colours, and styles. Tiered skirts are also called prairie skirts.
A tiered skirt can be elegant for work when paired with a pretty blouse and heels or wedge sandals.. Since tiered skirts are full, wear a blouse that fits a little tighter to highlight your figure and avoid getting lost in the skirt.
Style 7: Circle Skirt
A circle skirt is exactly that: a simple, circular skirt that falls around the hips loosely. Circle skirts can go from the office to cocktails and still look beautiful and elegant. A circle skirt can work on women of every size, because they are very forgiving. Wear your circle skirts with a fitted top, and keep the skirt at knee length for the most flattering silhouette. Heels will make the legs look longer and look great when worn with a circle skirt.
Circle skirts came into vogue in the 1950's, yet they still work well on women today. This feminine style speaks volumes on its own, so make the rest of your outfit a little more muted, such as a stylish but solid coloured top, and ladylike accessories.
Style 8: Flared Skirt
Flared skirts encompass a multitude of different styles. Some flared skirts are fitted against the body until you get to the bottom of the skirt, which is flared out. Some flared skirts are trumpet shaped, which means the skirt flares out slightly at roughly the midpoint of the skirt.
Flared skirts can be long or short, and be made of many materials. A flared skirt is all-purpose, and looks good on all types of figures. Wear heels with a flared skirt, and if the skirt is patterned, keep the rest of the outfit simple. Shorter women should not wear a flared skirt that is longer than knee length. Simple accessories and even a jacket or scarf can add something to a flared skirt look for work and further personalise your outfit.
How to Buy Skirts For Work on eBay
Buying great skirts on eBay is simple, fun, and convenient. Put together a fabulous outfit for work that will cost less and show up right at your door. If you aren't sure which style of skirt you would like, but want to get a general idea of what's available, do a search for skirts.. The search can then be narrowed to Women's Skirts and you'll see all of the different types of skirts that can be purchased, including new, used, and vintage style skirts.
Search skirts by brand for great deals on brand name skirts, such as H&M skirts or M&S skirts.. Purchase skirts from Top-Rated Sellers that have excellent feedback, and look for local sellers so you can pick up your skirt in person instead of paying shipping fees. If the seller is not local, see if you can bundle other items with your skirt for a lower shipping cost, or combine shipping for more than one skirt. Ask to see photos of the skirt if need be, and get exact size and measurements of skirts to ensure they fit properly. Check for a returns policy just in case they don't fit and need to be returned or exchanged.
Shopping for skirts to wear to work doesn't have to be difficult or even time consuming. Knowing your body type and what looks good on you is definitely helpful, as well as knowing what types of outfits are acceptable and appropriate for your office in particular. If you're not sure, ask around, or simply take a look at the women in your office to see what they are wearing. For a more conservative office, longer skirts and darker colours may be more appropriate.
To spice up your work look, add cute accessories like fun scarves, jewellery, cute heels, or patterned stockings. If you're not sure about a skirt and if it's work appropriate, err on the side of caution. It's always best to look more conservative than it is to look like you're about to hit the latest nightclub. Dressing for work is important because the way you look gives people their first impression of you, so take care to pull a work look together that commands respect while remaining pretty, feminine, and classic.


text: The Remington R51, Explained: I took the time this evening to do a near-total detail strip for the purpose of better understanding this radically different new design, and in hopes of diagnosing and finding solutions for the host of problems plaguing its early life so far. Suprisingly, I found a fairly simple and familiar trigger layout, a very simple but fairly effective safety design, and parts that are all pretty basic in construction, meaning higher quality replacements may be possible for not much effort. The way this will work is I will go through each layer of the internal's functions, starting with the trigger, and ending with the safety. I put a numbered diagram of all the small internal parts on this first post so readers can hopefully not be as confused by the language. I'll just assume everyone knows the big, external parts already 1-Disconnector 2-Sear Tooth 3-Hammer $ Strut Assembly 4-Trigger & Stirrup Assembly 5-Safety & Spring 6-Mag Catch 7-Mag Catch Release Button 8-Slide Stop Chime in at any time if you have questions, and I'll try to see if I can figure out answers or at least get clearer pictures up TCB

You do not own a cat. You can own a car, shoes, a dog, but you can not own a cat any more than you can own a sunset or a warm breeze on a summer night. Enjoy them, yes. Own, no.
What makes you think that anyone OWNS a dog? My dog owns ME.
Either way it's a Master-Slave relationship.
Cats are indifferent co-equals who occasionally deign to be absolutely delightful company.
It's well worth the wait.
From a legal perspective you own the cat. However, as has been quoted so often, to a dog you're family; to a cat you're staff.
@JWF. VERY sad to hear the news. If it serves you to know that I made a list of favorite strips 16 years ago, and yours is #3 in my list. Plus the fact that when I started I was studying in your country, and although I returned to my country long ago, I kept loyally reading those strips for all these years through the internet (GBI = God bless internet). Anyway, I wish you the best and thank you.
I guess this is goodbye. Sorry Annie.
The primary psychological difference between dogs and cats: you can make a dog feel guilty about things it hasn't even done; it is not possible to make a cat feel guilty. You can make a cat scared, indignant, even bored (if you try talking discipline to it) but never guilty.
Nicely done!
If you've ever had mice in you house, and you get a cat, you soon realize how valuable they are (not to mention the therapeutic effect of their purr).
Please bring back Annie and return to the way you were.. please ..How much can it cost to do this small strip??come on guys…

Katrina Benefit Concerts
Saturday, September 26.
The ZANZIBAR BLUE show featured LUVPARK with Orrin Evans, piano; Ron Jennings, guitar; Donald Edwards, drums and Ralph Bowen, sax along with J.D. Walter and Tiffany Jones, vocals. The music had an anticipated pounding, funky, R&B flavor for the instrumentals. Walter has an eerie singing style that commands attention even without lyrics that are memorable or distinct. This was a two night fundraiser for Katrina victims, but for the last show, the tables were empty and the dance floor deserted. There was one noisy table with people shouting, not just talking to one another, but completely oblivious to the music and the rights of others. I keep asking why spend money to hear music and then ignore it? The band was better than the audience and Walter clearly has a vocal style that is unusual and provocative. Cheryl Bentyne, former soprano voice of Manhattan Transfer and winner of dozens of awards for her stylish American song book vocals was at the Zanzibar Sept. 30 and Oct. 1. She sang with gusto and show business projection doing various numbers in something of a tribute to Anita O'Day. Many in the crowd clearly loved her and many others seemed more inersted in their conversations and dinner. The club has great personnel, marvelous food and brings in top talent, but for many musicians audience responce somehow is seldom what it should be. Bentyne was old time show business with dramatic comments, funny asides and show business style in her vocals. She sang it all, Tea for Two, Blue Moon, Talk of the Town and, of course, The Boogie Blues.
CHRIS' JAZZ CAFE had it's all day-all night fund raiser for Katrina going strong at 10:30 p.m. when I stopped by on the way home. The club was packed and roaring with some of the finest jazz people in Philadelphia going on stage as I came inLarry McKenna, Bootsie Barnes on tenor sax; John Swanna, trumpet; Sid Simmons, piano and his trio. They don't get any better anywhere and they kept the audience cheering with non-stop jazz classics and some originals as well. Club Manager Al McMahon told me the audience was generous throughout the day and night as were the musicians, some 100 plus of them and a New Orleans jazz group closed the night with some down home music.
The KIMMEL CENTER on Tuesday night had the dynamite duo of Harry Connick, Jr., piano and Branford Marsalis, sax. Despite the pleadings of the audience, Connick, never sang, which is his most striking strength as something of a Southern Sinatra. The author-actor- singer-pianist-composer confined his stage performance to piano renditions of various numbers with master sax man Marsalis, a couple of which suggested the New Orleans town they are both natives of. If charm were a musical talent, Connick would be incomparable and he engagingly kept the audience laughing and cheering as rambled artfully through the presentations. His piano playing was very good, but a duo performance had overtones of a cocktail bar setting in New York more than a stage show. Marsalis plays masterful sax and some of his solos were truly (forgive the teenage word) awesome. Miguel Zenon, alto sax; and his quartet were left stranded with half the Perleman Theater audience gone for the second act and even half of that small group left while they were playing. It was sad and the group that was not that bad, just not Connick who was clearly the only one they came to see.

Truman State womens's soccer starts its season on the road
Year number 31 of women's soccer on the Truman State University campus gets underway this weekend, as the Bulldogs travel to Minnesota for a pair of non-conference matches at No. 6 Minnesota State-Mankato (Friday, 4 p.m.) and Winona State (Sunday, noon).
The Bulldogs are entering the inaugural season of Great Lakes Valley Conference action after having recorded a 12-6-1 mark in 2012 during the team's final year of MIAA play.
Truman returns a solid core from last season's squad, bringing back seven starters and 17 letterwinners for the 2013 campaign.
Senior forward Trisha Shoemaker, who led the Bulldogs with nine goals last season, paces the front line, while all-MIAA first-team defender Kelsey Ridgway and honorable mention all-conference keeper Emily Bozdeck will look to keep opponents off the scoreboard.
As per usual for head coach Mike Cannon, the longest-tenured women's soccer head coach in Bulldog history scheduled a pair of challenging contests at the outset of the season.
After hosting the top two programs from the Northern Sun Intercollegiate Conference to open the 2012 season, the Bulldogs make the return trip in 2013 and will have their hands full with a pair of solid squads.
The sixth-ranked Mavericks made a deep run in the NCAA postseason last year, winning the NSIC in the process, while Winona State was the preseason favorite for the league this time around after winning 16 games last year.
Truman earned a split against the Minnesota squads last season, falling 2-1 to MSU-M before rebounding with a 2-0 shutout of WSU at the Bulldog Soccer Pitch.
Cannon returns for his 21st season on the sidelines, having compiled a 265-96-38 all-time record with the program.
He is the seventh winningest active coach in NCAA-II history and has led the 'Dogs to nine postseason appearances.

While I am the type of person that finds charm in all four seasons, I am beyond thrilled Summer has arrived. The DC Metro area had 17 consecutive cool, damp days of rain in May; so to say that I'm thrilled it's Summer might actually be an understatement.
Here's how I'm planning to make the most the season:
- Two words: ROAD TRIP.
- Host an outdoor dinner party.
- Read three new books (James Patterson's Beach Road and Beach House are my go-to Summer reads. I've read them over and over for the 10 years. I think it's time branch out.)
- Find the perfect sunless tanner.
- Wash my car the old fashioned way. There's something nostalgic about it, no?
- Check out Escape Live DC with some girlfriends.
- Try a juice cleanse.
- Make a point to have fresh flowers in the house more.
- Create a killer Summer playlist.
- Find a delicious quick and easy sangria recipe.
I'd love to know… what are your plans this Summer?

BMI View : Economic growth and the resultant increases in Kenya's middle-class population will lead to rising demand for quality healthcare services as incomes improve. Investment into the healthcare sector by insurance companies in order to meet the demand for services is therefore an advisable business strategy.
In early January 2013, leading UK international healthcare company Bupa announced a partnership with Kenya-based Jubilee Insurance. The partnership focussed on Jubilee Insurance providing Bupa's health insurance products to its Kenyan customers. While Bupa established itself in the Kenyan health insurance sector over a decade ago (via its partnership with Healthline Solutions), this recent affiliation with a second local company, moreover East Africa's largest insurance group, will boost its presence in the fast-growing, competitive health insurance sector.
Established in 1937, Jubilee is the largest composite and medical insurer in East Africa, with a 32% market share in Kenya, 35% in Uganda and 15% in Tanzania. Jubilee operates in Kenya, Uganda, Tanzania, Burundi and Mauritius, serving over 300,000 customers across the region. Further highlighting the company's extensive revenue stream, Jubilee is the only ISO certified insurance group listed on the three East Africa stock exchanges - the Nairobi Securities Exchange (NSE), Dar es Salaam Stock Exchange and Uganda Securities Exchange.
BMI believes investing in Kenya's healthcare sector is an advisable business strategy, as the sector's strong growth forecast has the potential to provide investors with significant returns on investment.
On the back of economic growth, a growing population, a growing awareness of preventative healthcare and an increasing burden of non-communicable disease, we forecast health expenditure will rise from KES155.50bn (US$1.84bn) in 2012 to KES224.86bn (US$2.17bn) by 2017. The Kenyan government's contribution to healthcare is expected to increase from 44.07% in 2012 to 47.79% in 2017.

|Kenya: Pharmaceuticals & Healthcare Spending
Furthermore, Bupa's focus on the provision of health insurance plans for businesses in Kenya - via the recently launched Vital Africa product, an 'emergency only' plan which ensures customers get the emergency treatment they need, anywhere in Africa - is a sound business plan.
Kenya's economy and its role as a regional leader and industrial hub are complemented by having the region's most open business regime, making it a regional investment magnet. Once a bastion of public sector control over the economy, the government has loosened the reins. Now multinational firms and other private investors play a leading role in business.
Some of the multinationals that have recently established a presence in the country include General Electric, Google, IBM, Visa International, Pepsi, Nestle, Foton Automobiles, World Bank's International Finance Corporation (IFC) and South Africa's FirstRand Bank. The past three years have also seen service industry multinationals such as PricewaterhouseCoopers (PwC), WPP, Bharti Airtel, Huawei and Procter & Gamble (P&G) announce plans to make Nairobi their headquarters in Africa.

Interview: Kenneth Lonergan on looking past your own horizon and the 'miracle' of Team 'Margaret'
Some years back a young Kenneth Lonergan visited Italy, his first trip to a country where English wasn't the predominant language. He experienced a powerful bit of self-awareness. "My God," he thought. "These people have been here the whole time I've been alive."
It's one of those moments that is more striking than it sounds, particularly for a writer curious about the world and how people respond to it, are affected by it and, most importantly, are ignorant to it. Having always been interested in other people's points of view, the size of the world and the limitations of his own experiences with it, it was a seminal moment for the writer/director, one that tucked itself away in the recesses of his mind until it was called upon to flavor his latest effort, "Margaret."
The film, which has seen an embattled legal and post-production history, tells the story of a young woman's own watershed moment of epiphany, when suddenly the world seemed to expand beyond the borders of her privileged Manhattan life.
"This is someone who grows up in the Upper West Side, which is a very centrally located, parochial neighborhood," Lonergan says, calling from New York, of the film's main character, Lisa Cohen (Anna Paquin). "You don't know, when you grow up on the Upper West Side, that you're not in the center of the world. You grow up in Kansas and you know there's a big world out there. When you grow up where I grew up, you think, 'That's it.' And so you step out and you realize there's a lot more going on. So it was really important to me that she's never been to a bus driver's house before, she's never been in a police station, she's never been in a lawyer's office, she's never seen anyone die."
For a long time the film was just labeled "Bus Film" in Lonergan's computer, so called for the story's inciting incident. The narrative flow seems simple enough: Lisa has a hand in a tragic bus accident that takes a pedestrian's life. The blame is shared with the bus driver (Mark Ruffalo), who was distracted by Lisa and ran a red light. Burdened by guilt and a naive yet touching desire for justice, Lisa becomes close with one of the victim's friends, explores legal options to have the bus driver fired at the very least, approaches him in order to purge their guilt with a not-so-simple admission and basically bends over backwards to understand why something so horrible and random had to happen in the first place.
The themes Lonergan wanted to explore stemmed from a Gerard Manley Hopkins poem, "Spring and Fall," that tells of a young girl -- Margaret -- mourning the change of seasons. But ultimately the lyrics are about the shift from adolescence to adulthood, the reality check that comes when suddenly the world isn't so mysterious, at least not for the romantic and exciting reasons it is when seen through the eyes of youth.
"Little kids grow up discovering the world that's shown to them," Lonergan says, "and then when you become a teenager, it kind of shrinks a little bit. I think when you get past that point, one of the important things is that you see there is more to the world than yourself. Elaine May had seen an early cut of the film and she said to me, 'Only a teenager could think that she could have that much affect on the world,' which I thought was very interesting and apt and kind of touching and sad." May's daughter, Jeannie Berlin, plays the victim's friend, Emily, in the film and has received some recognition this awards season.
Lonergan was also interested in keeping the full breadth of Lisa's experience in the eye of the camera. It was important to him that the character's life continued in all of its elements, rather than follow along the central narrative thread. And so the film therefore resembles a bit of a willfully messy construction, characters played by major actors (Matt Damon and Matthew Broderick) coming and going in brief exchanges, while other key moments in a young adolescent girl's life (such as losing her virginity) play out in poignant, mundane strokes.
"In many movies," Lonergan says, "someone's involved in the pursuit of a criminal or a story or a trial, you see them in their life and then you see the story start. And then all you ever see is them getting out of work and going to meet with the policemen or whatever it is. I always wondered, 'What do they do all day long while this is going on?' So I was very interested in keeping her entire life alive as the story goes on. She may be pursuing this agenda and she may be trying to work out all the difficulty she's going through, but she still has to go to class and she still has to deal with her mother and she still has to deal with everything we have to deal with all day long. I'd never seen that done before. It may have been done and I just didn't see it but I thought that was an interesting thing to do and that suggested a movie right away."
Indeed, Lonergan always saw "Margaret," which has been noted as a "novelistic" piece of filmmaking, as cinematic material. Even when he allowed himself a 375-page first draft, he wanted it on the screen. He toyed for a time with the idea of a mini-series, but eventually he honed it down to the essence he wanted, never really envisioning it for literature or the stage (where he has established himself quite authoritatively as a Pulitzer Prize-nominated playwright).
"The rest of the city going about its business in these different neighborhoods is really, really important to the story and is something I was interested in incorporating," he says. "So that suggested a film rather than a play. Outdoor atmosphere is not something the theater does very well."
"Margaret," which was filmed in 2005, was Lonergan's sophomore effort following 2000's "You Can Count on Me." He says his learning curve on his debut was "perpendicular" and that he was very much learning on the job, developing visual ideas during discussions with his cinematographer, etc. This time around, though, he developed those ideas early on, including that notion of a vast metropolis going on about its business as a central character fights against the grain to see justice served.
"I wanted her to be just one person in the whole city," he says, "no matter what was going on with her. Where I'm standing now, there must be 50,000 people within a five-minute walk, and I was interested in the idea of, with a camera, trying to convey that whatever you're doing, you're surrounded by people doing things that are either much more important or much less important.
"Like, we're having this conversation, and I'm sure someone nearby is dying of something and I'm sure someone nearby is having a very good time doing something else. That goes on all day long, all over the world, and I just thought that was something that would be very interesting to convey visually. Also, that's what she's up against. It's not the details of the lawsuit or the fact that the bus driver is one kind of a person or another, but just that the world is so big. And this is a very good city for demonstrating that visually."
He also says he wanted the exteriors to be geographically accurate. "I didn't want to have someone step out of a building on 72nd Street and walk into a restaurant in Greenwich Village," he says. "I wanted to be as truthful to the neighborhoods and the locations as possible, and for the most part we were successful in being able to do that."
Lonergan had cast actress Anna Paquin in the London production of his play "This is Our Youth" and was about a third of the way through writing "Margaret" when he decided she was perfect for the role of Lisa. What really struck him as being unique about her, he says, was a balance of sensitivity with energy and vitality.
"My wife, J. Smith-Cameron [who plays Lisa's mother in the film], refers to some actors as 'front foot actors' and some actors as 'back foot actors,'" he says, "meaning they're sort of moving forward or they're waiting and reacting. And Anna is so driven. There are many sensitive and delicate performers out there, but she had the sensitivity and the burning drive, which the character had to have. Lisa is really trying very, very hard to do this very difficult thing and she gets quite far with it. So I think there is something to be said for her, despite the fact that she has trouble seeing past her own horizon."
That idea of not seeing past one's own horizon begins to take on an even deeper meaning when considering "Margaret" as a film about a city coming to grips with itself in the wake of its own tragedy. It's not that Lonergan felt any strong desire as a New Yorker to offer up thematic commentary about 9/11 when he set out to write the film (which is full of student arguments and debate sessions relating to the event, still very fresh all those years ago). But they started to work themselves in nevertheless.
"I wrote it around 2001 to 2002," he says, "and I remember at the time, almost within days after the attacks, everyone was asking, 'How has this changed your view of America and your view of New York and how has this changed your view of life?' And my thought at the time was, 'My God, I don't know. It's so immense. How are you supposed to know what you think of anything this size, that fast?' Whatever I was thinking and feeling about it came out in what I was writing at the time, which was 'Margaret.'"
Around Paquin, Lonergan built a cast of talented performers. He wrote the part of the mother for Smith-Cameron and had Paquin in mind for the lead, but with a wealth of stellar actors committing, he wasn't sure where they'd go immediately. He didn't know if Mark Ruffalo would play the bus driver or one of the teachers, for instance, but things eventually started clicking into place.
"What's funny is you're looking for what you imagined, and sometimes you get it," he says. "And then when you don't, you branch out your idea of what the character should be."
In particular he notes Jean Reno's brief portrayal of a gentleman seeing Lisa's mother, who eventually walks the delicate thematic line of political correctness that Lonergan threads throughout.
"That was a very difficult part to cast, because it's such an elusive character," he says. "But I think he's just wonderful. He has a very elusive quality but a very menschy quality."
Getting back to the film's inciting incident, that harrowing bus accident, Lonergan says if that scene didn't work, there would be no movie; it happens in the film's first 10 minutes and in every scene that follows, there's not one moment when Lisa is not affected, when what she does isn't driven in some way by what happened to her. But while it was originally just a scene between Paquin and Allison Janney (who is pitch-perfect in virtually 2% of the film as the dying victim), something Berlin happened to witness added further thematic heft.
"Jeannie had told me while we were shooting that she had seen a terrible accident on Broadway, just by coincidence," Lonergan says. "What was really bizarre about it was that a crowd gathered, just a wall of people stood around and watched this truck driver, whose truck had blown up in the middle of Broadway and he was very badly burned. She said all these bicycle messengers just pulled up and these people just stood there like an audience watching this guy die, basically."
It led Lonergan to include a circle of extras around Paquin as she acted out the scene with Janney. "Every time they finished a take," he says, "everybody was just sort of in shock, because Anna and Allison were so real. And this is all day long. You hold up the traffic. You have people honking. Everybody's mad at you. The crew is working really, really hard to keep the street clear. It's very difficult shooting in the middle of the city in the middle of the day."
When coming around to the issue of "Team 'Margaret,'" a grassroots campaign started by critic and journalist advocates of the film demanding more exposure, Lonergan understandably finds it all incredibly heartening. Along with being considered one of the year's best films by a host of critics, the Chicago Sun-Times' Roger Ebert and CNN's Tom Charity among them (in addition to being an obvious favorite around these parts and picking up major nominations from the Chicago Film Critics Association and the London Film Critics Circle), "Margaret" has a lot of supporters in its corner. Lonergan noted his appreciation in a previously released statement as the movement built to a fever pitch.
"I couldn't be more touched by the outpouring of support from critics and twitterers, as well as the petition campaign on behalf of 'Margaret' for the released cut," it reads. "I support this cut wholeheartedly and want people to see and like it, and the actors deserve to be seen and appreciated for their amazing work. It would mean everything to me if the film could at least have a fair chance at a life of its own.
"Filmmaking, like any other art, is a very profound means of human communication; beyond the professional pleasure of succeeding or the pain of failing, you do want your film to be seen, to communicate itself to other people. They don't have to like it, but connecting your inner life, your view of life, to the inner life and views of others is really and truly what it's all about, and I desperately want 'Margaret' to have that chance to reach people, regardless of its ultimate merits."
With New York's Cinema Village in the midst of an on-going booking for the film and Los Angeles's Cinefamily planning a similar engagement starting on January 27, at least "Margaret" is beginning to reach a wider audience than it did during it's limited official release in September (which netted it a paltry $46,000 in box office receipts). Time will tell if a home video release will help bring it to an even broader spectrum of viewers, but Lonergan is regardless humbled by the rally cry of its supporters.
"It's a miracle," he says. "I don't even know what to say about it. I still can't quite take it in. You want to communicate with people when you write something, and the fact that people care about the work the actors and I did to champion it this way, I don't know what else to say about it except that it's a miracle. I don't actually believe in miracles, per se, but I believe in this one."
