Topic: undefined method `key?' for nil:NilClass,bcrypt-ruby,has_secure_passwo
I'm going through DHH's Agile Web Development with Rails for Rails 3.1. In chapter 14 they create a Users sign-in model/view/controller using the has_secure_password method. My user.rb file looks like this:
class User < ActiveRecord::Base
attr_accessible :name, :password_digest, :password, :password_confirmation
validates :name, presence: true, uniqueness: true
now when I go to localhost:3000/users/new I first get some kind of bcrypt-ruby error and then when I reload the page I get a undefined method `key?' for nil:NilClass
I don't know what needs to be done, mike

(Not if but when!) ... the spring to summer weather makes it's debut in MT, I will post pictures of the Shibori dyeing with the PVC pipe. Until then... we live with the winter-barely into-spring weather! As mentioned earlier, this is one of my first pieces of "shibori-inspired" hand dyed fabric which I made last summer on my back patio! LOVE doing that! You can see how the whole cloth piece started out in the post yesterday right here.
And so began my inspiration for this whole-cloth inspired art quilt. (This picture is tinted a bit yellow as the light in my studio isn't quite correct for taking accurate color pictures.)
In the photo above I've used my terrific Bernina #43 free motion couching foot... Currently, I know of no other machine that has a foot THIS EASY TO USE! I've used it to couch my favorite hand dyed yarn. I've also added lots of bobbin play, using YLI threads, and Razzle Dazzle thread. You can also see I've played with some Angelina "Textiva" film in a golden yellow colorway. (It's the shiny cellophane-looking product in the top of the pic above)
And I've added some of my hand-dyed rayon ribbons --- it's an aqua-greenish-blue color.
I hope you're intrigued, and will come back to see the finished art quilt. I will also be posting pictures of the exact threads I used, and a tip for pulling up bobbin threads and tyeing off, as well as the "HOW TO'S" on angelina fibers and textiva films in this week's posts.
Fun Fun Fun in the Sun! (even if it's only in my imagination)!
I think I want to play some BEACH BOYS music and get that summer-time inspiration warmed up!

For if we don't find the next whiskey-bar, I tell you we must die!
"Oh, show us the way, to the next whiskey-bar. Oh, don't ask why, oh, don't ask why." And so opens the Alabama Song (Google books preview) by Bertholt Brecht and Brecht's close collaborator, Elisabeth Hauptmann (Gbp), first published in 1927. Brecht set it to music and performed it on stages all over Berlin, but the better known version was scored by classical composer Kurt Weill, who was impressed with Brecht's poetry and wanted to break away from the constraints of his previous work. It was this version, first performed by Lotte Lenya, that was made famous by The Doors and their use of a Marxophone (Wikipedia). [more inside]

Minot man charged in shooting incident
New playground planned
Shoppers who take advantage of special downtown store hours next Wednesday evening will be helping to fund a new community playground.
Bread of Life Lutheran Church is sponsoring Diva Night Out with downtown merchants to raise money to construct a playground for the community on its property at 1415-17th Ave. SW. The location is on the east side of 16th Street Southwest, north of the U.S. Highway 2 & 52 Bypass.
"During the flood, we lost so much of our playgrounds and parks," said Michelle Lauckner, a member of the church outreach committee. "On the south side of town, there really isn't much for play areas. With all the people coming into our area, families are living in congregate housing where they may not have access to any kind of play structure or green space."
For those reasons, the outreach committee is spearheading a church project to build a playground. Future construction includes a pavilion where people can picnic or host events such as family reunions and where outdoor worship services can be held.
The church is seeking grants and private donations for a $55,000 children's playground, which is the project's first phase. In celebrating its 25th anniversary this year, the church wants to raise $25,000 from within its congregation.
A number of downtown merchants are teaming up to raise additional funds by opening their doors Wednesday from 5 to 8 p.m. for Diva Night Out. Participating merchants will either donate a portion of proceeds or make outright donations to the playground project.
Shoppers can stop by Lillian's downtown for a list of participating stores. There also will be light appetizers served and door prizes awarded, said Donna Roos, one of the organizers. Weather permitting, there will be outdoor musical entertainment.
"It's going to be a fun time," Roos said.
People who wish to contribute directly also can send donations designated to the playground project to the church.
The Rev. Taryn Montgomery with Bread of Life said the playground location currently is extra space that the church uses for parking. The church is working with Dakota Fence on a playground design and has future plans to invest an additional $5,000 to install accessible playground equipment for children with disabilities.
Montgomery said depending on fund-raising, construction could start this fall or in the spring.

The optical elements of ZEISS lenses feature T*® anti-reflective coating on all surfaces and an optical design that guarantees images of superior brilliance at all times, even in unfavourable lighting conditions. We apply the anti-reflective coating to the lens surfaces by the vapour deposition of extremely thin, transparent layers on the glass. In this process, special substances are vaporized with extremely high energy in a high-vacuum environment and are subsequently deposited on the glass surfaces, one after another, as layers with precisely controlled thicknesses to achieve the desired reduction of reflective properties. The first coating techniques were employed by ZEISS as long ago as in the 1930s.
Optical Steady Shot (OSS) image stabilisation allows you to shoot clear, blur-free images in a wide variety of situations. Whether you are shooting handheld while zoomed in or in places with low levels of light, optical stabilisation significantly reduces the blur caused by camera shake. Also, OSS makes for images with less noise, as you do not have to boost ISO levels to compensate for a lack of light when in darker places.
Regardless of whether you're shooting wide, or zoomed-in close on your subject, you can take advantage of a constant F.4 maximum aperture throughout the entire zoom range. This means you do not have to adjust the shutter speed or ISO settings when changing your focal length, which is of great value when shooting with manual exposure or working with aperture priority, for example.
A silent autofocus mechanism means you can capture the details of an intimate moment with great precision. This is very useful in both film and photographic situations where you and your subjects do not want to be disturbed by mechanical noises.
Compact yet extremely capable – ZEISS worked in close collaboration with Sony to create a high-precision lens, containing aspherical lenses as well as extra-low dispersion glass to ensure a portable size, while delivering exquisite image quality at the same time.

I haven't seen a thread in the Illinois forum for Chili Paintball Pits in Chillicothe so I figured I start one. It is a great field to go play woodsball. It is my home field and is mainly woodsball and some pretty nice rec spool fields. If you love woodsball this a is a perfect place, it is really thick vegetation. A awsome field if you are a crawling sneaky guy. The paint prices are a little steep though.

Couples counseling begins with a thorough assessment of each individual's personality. Working with couples poses the challenge of assisting them to understand the art and learned method of communication. In its simplicity exists the complexity of two individuals who, in most relationships, are as different as night and day. Often they may think their communication is like two people from two different countries. This is the baseline in developing and healing any relationship. Our culture presents a variety of problems that affect couples in today's society. A combination of psycho-education, psychodynamic exploration into the individual's own family history and a restructuring of thoughts....

I especially enjoy working with couples, or helping patients with their relationships. Having been happily married myself for 25 years with two grown children, I am especially empathic to relationship problems. First and foremost, I help a couple to see that their troubled relationship is due to a system breakdown and not one particular problem. The solution very generally involves more structure, more fun and less blame and criticism.

We all come from different families of origin... which different views and opinions about what is acceptable in relationships. When a couple joins as one, each person must recognize his/her family or origin and together define their NEW family story TOGETHER. This is a process that can take some time; however, it unites a couple while still appreciating and honoring their past traditions and teachings.

I hope MS looses this.
Datel Design & Development, a well-known supplier of memory cards for Xbox 360 and other products, had filed an antitrust lawsuit in San Francisco federal court against Microsoft Corp. concerning Microsoft's recent update of the Xbox 360 to render it incompatible with Datel Max memory cards.
The Max Memory card, in 2GB and 4GB sizes, was 100% compatible with the Microsoft Xbox 360 and was introduced in May, 2009. According to Datel, Max Memory has enjoyed enormous success and the company has sold over 50 thousand of devices. Max Memory has a suggested retail price of $39.99 for the 2GB, version, whereas, in contrast, Microsoft's largest memory card is a 512MB card which was priced at $59.99 prior to the introduction of Max Memory and, in response to Max Memory, was reduced to $39.99.
"The Max Memory card plugs into the Xbox 360 and allows a user to store games, characters, and similar information. It permits a player to transport game information between Xbox systems. The Microsoft memory card does exactly the same thing – with the difference that it offers only one-quarter the memory while listing for the same retail price," said Datel founder Mike Connors.
Datel claims that it recognizes Microsoft's right to innovate. Nevertheless, Datel believes that the recent update which banned third-party memory devices from usage with Xbox 350 was a predatory conduct undertaken to deliberately harm competition with no benefit whatsoever to consumers.
"Antitrust law protects the right of consumers to choose. Just as a car manufacturer can't require a buyer to purchase tires for the life of the car from the manufacturer, Microsoft cannot force consumers to buy accessories only from it. Free competition in the marketplace allows consumers the most choices at the best prices. Datel believes that its antitrust lawsuit will restore competition and permit consumers to enjoy the benefits of their Max Memory cards, as well as the many other innovative products Datel has in the pipeline," a statement by Datel reads.
It is not a secret that video game console makers make money on accessories and video games, not on the console hardware itself. Therefore, it is hardly surprising that Microsoft has decided to earn additional profit on memory units, which are rather popular accessories among Xbox 360 Arcade console users since their devices do not have integrated hard drive. Nevertheless, Datel believes that Microsoft's position is unclear.

Taiwan Semiconductor Manufacturing Company on Thursday revealed details about its 28nm process technology that extends usage of Silicon Oxynitride (SiON)/poly with a dual/triple gate oxide process and is not based on high-k metal gate (HKMG) dielectrics like process technologies from other companies. TSMC also emphasized that it would start production of chips using 28nm tech in early 2010.
"This development was achieved through close collaboration with customers who are pushing their own boundaries of new applications requiring 28nm technology. We continue this quest to support the most advanced applications being designed by the innovators in the semiconductor industry," said Dr. Jack Sun, vice president of research and development at TSMC.
Characteristics of TSMC's 28nm process technology include high density and low Vcc_min 6-T SRAM cells, low leakage transistors, well-proven conventional analog/RF/electrical fuse components and low-RC Cu-low-k interconnect. This technology demonstrates TSMC's commitment and ability to extend SiON/Poly as a cost-effective solution for low power and high performance. In the paper presented at the 2009 Symposia on VLSI Technology and Circuits in Kyoto, Japan, low standby and low operating power transistors using SiON optimized with strain engineering and aggressive oxide thickness provide up to 25~40% speed improvement or 30~50% active power reduction over prior 45nm technology.
Additionally, the paper reports good 64Mb SRAM functional yield with a competitive cell size of 0.127um², and a raw gate density as high as 3900kGate/mm² in this 28nm dual/triple gate oxide SoC technology. Good SRAM Vcc_min, electrical fuse, and analog performance have also been achieved which proves the manufacturability of this technology.
In the previous announcement made in September 2008, TSMC plans to deliver its 28nm process in early 2010 as a full node technology offering options of power-efficient high performance and lower power technologies. In early 2010 TSMC will be the first company in the industry to offer 28nm fabrication process. Other foundries are only projected to offer 28nm technology in the second half of 2010.

Behind the Scenes at a Small Business: Lessons From Sandy
(Editor's note: This is the ninth installment in our "Winning the Card Game" series. Dana Norman and Michele Rothberg acquired discount greeting card store Card$mart in June 2011. They agreed to let TheStreet follow them for one year as they experience the ups and downs of running a business. Based on advice from their accountant, the owners have declined to share revenue and profit figures.)
PLAINVIEW, N.Y. ( TheStreet) -- "I almost wished we lost power. Opening up was painful," Card$mart co-owner Dana Norman tells TheStreet two weeks after Hurricane Sandy forced her way through New York City, New Jersey, Long Island and parts of Connecticut on Oct. 29, leaving widespread damage, flooding and power outages.
The independent card shop is located in an upscale shopping center in the middle of Long Island, so it was far enough from the dangerous storm surges that slammed the southern coast of the island. And, luckily, Card$mart is in one of the few areas that did not lose power in the aftermath of Hurricane Sandy and the Nor'easter that hit 10 days later. Most residents and commercial businesses, even if they had no damage from the category 1 hurricane, were without power for several days or weeks.
>>>Winning the Card Game: Month 1
>>>Winning the Card Game: Month 2
>>>Behind the Scenes at a Small Biz: March Means Mega Money
>>>Behind the Scenes at a Small Biz: In April, the Postman Rings
The lack of power took a toll on sales at the end of the month and into November. Norman and Rothman closed the store early the day of the storm and kept it shuttered the day after. Both were dealing with power outages at their homes.
Card$mart also lost its phone service and Internet for the first few days. But Norman says customers, for the most part, didn't seem to have a problem paying in cash.
Still, few people were out buying cards in the first week after the storm. "One day we opened up and the register
"We don't sell, nor are we looking to sell, flashlights and batteries. But I feel like the store became more a therapy session for our regular customers. We had heat, we charged customers' phones while they shopped
Card$mart licenses its name from Designer Greetings , which is also the vendor of the "50% off" line of cards the store sells. Yet the partners are not franchisees -- they do not pay franchise fees or royalties to Designer Greetings. Norman and Rothberg are required to carry the Designer Greetings 50%-off card line, but can also sell other items and cards of their choice. Designer Greetings has declined to disclose how many independent retailers license the Card$mart name.

This news is a bit "old" now, but I was hoping someone would translate Marcus Björk's interview on Sveriges Radio for me: http://sverigesradio.se/sida/gruppsi...rtikel=4243794
This news is a bit "old" now, but I was hoping someone would translate Marcus Björk's interview on Sveriges Radio for me: http://sverigesradio.se/sida/gruppsi...rtikel=4243794
AbsoluteSkating.com finally posted their report on the Swedish Nationals: http://www.absoluteskating.com/index...011swedishnat1
The Marcus Björk interview:
Marcus: It feels good, I have done good practice sessions, I am focused and I am in good shape.
Svetjiana: Can you feel that you are in good shape?
Yes, you do. You land the jumps in practise and it's easy to do your stuff.
How do you feel when it's not easy then?
Then it feels hard and sort of difficult.
But you feel good now?
So, it's home turf for you then. How do you feel about that?
Well, there are a lot of people I know around me and many of the volunteers are active in my club, so that makes me feel fine.
So you don't get more nervous then?
No, it's mostly fun. Like other club members come and say "good luck now", so that's fun.
You maybe get more on then, or?
Well, I am always on when I compete, but of course.
Some says that they hope you will end up on the podium in junior nationals. What do you think about that?
Well, I can't do more than my best and I hope it will be as good as possible.
But do you feel the press then, when people say that?
No, I sort of do my own thing. I know fairly well what I want to do and what to expect and then I don't bother much about the others.
What are you expecting then?
That my training will give results?
How much have you been training then before nationals?
I have been training hard the last weeks, except for this week when I have been taking it easy. Four mornings before school and every afternoon. Saturday is free but Sunday is practice.
But do you manage school and everything else then?
Yes, I do.
You do? No problems?
You are sixteen. When I searched you I found an article from 2008 that already then said you were an impressive figure skater. For how long have you been skating?
I started when I was nine and I think my first success was winning "Götalandsmästerskapen" (a sectional competition in the southern parts of Sweden) just before I was twelve. Then I have done better and better. The year after was my first novice championship and then I did two more novice championships with medals in all of them. And I have been to Nordics twice as a junior and there I have won bronze and gold.
Bronze and gold, That's pretty good
Yes it is.
But then you have done a lot.
Yes I actually have.
And you have skated from the age of nine. How good would you say Malmö is in the figure skating business?
I would say one of the better clubs. We have many good skaters here at nationals. We have good coaches, a nice club and so
Why do you succeed do you think?
Well, everything. It sort of works fine with coaches and with, well, the whole club is supporting you and so yes
What do you think of the audience. Will there be a lot of people this weekend?
Yes, nationals is one of the bigger events, so it should attract some people.
Your first competition is tomorrow, the short program. And then on Sunday the long program. How excited are you.
I am very excited, I really am. I see it in my head how I succeed.
So what do you see?
Well, a good program. I do my elements properly and everything.
Maybe a medal if you succeed
Yes, that's my hopes.
Marcus Björk from Malmö figure skating club; Good luck!
Thanks a million for your translation, snowflake!

13406 E. Philadelphia St. Whittier, CA 90608
Whittier College is part of a new consortium of five West Coast liberal arts colleges tasked with developing an educational model that combines high impact, face-to-face teaching practices with technologically-based instruction. The effort, led by Dominican University of California, is backed by a planning grant from the Teagle Foundation.
"This project flips the discourse offered daily in the media about the impact of technology on learning by showcasing the tremendous value of blending new technology-based teaching practices with the faculty-student interaction and more personal instruction delivered by Whittier and other liberal arts colleges," said President Sharon Herzberger.
In addition to Dominican and Whittier, the consortium includes Whitman College, the University of Puget Sound, and Mills College. The goal of the group is to test the impact of integrating innovative technology with "high impact practices"—such as undergraduate research opportunities, internships, service learning, group and capstone projects—that involve close faculty-student interaction and that actively engage students in the educational process in and out of the classroom. Such practices, emblematic of a liberal arts education, have been shown to improve student learning, retention, and graduation rates.
According to Dominican University, very little research to date has focused on aligning the rapid growth in technological approaches to education with a model grounded firmly in high impact practices.
The $25,000 Teagle grant will enable the five participating schools to convene representatives to discuss potential experiments to test how our typical models of delivering education would improve outcomes over models that only employ online learning.
The goals of the consortium are in line with work already underway at Whittier College. This spring, Whittier will launch a Digital Liberal Arts Collaboratory, a center designed to provide faculty, students, and staff with a cutting-edge technology space in which to engage in the collaborative and imaginative work of digital scholarship within the traditional liberal arts curriculum. Professor of English Andrea Rehn, Instructional Technologist Sonia Chaidez, Professor in the Film Studies Program John Bak, and other faculty involved in the Digital Liberal Arts committee at Whittier will take the lead in shaping the College's participation in the consortium.
Founded by Quakers in 1887, Whittier College is an independent, four-year college offering a traditional liberal arts program integrated with both professional and pre-professional courses of study. With an emphasis on diversity, community, and curricular innovation, the College's primary mission is to endow students with the education, skills, and values appropriate for global leadership and service. Whittier College is a designated Hispanic-Serving Institution (HSI).
Whittier Law School, which is accredited by the American Bar Association and is a member of the Association of American Law Schools, is located on a separate campus in Orange County.

Blonde long straight haircut
Jennifer Aniston's gorgeous look assumed a free-flowing appearance of the layered straight hair. This ombre style haircut has a clean partition near the center with noticeable highlights. The hair length is not equal. It has also a medium-length that acts as a border of her face which cuts the boring look of a plain long hair.

Benoît Sauvageau Repentigny, QC
Mr. Speaker, the President of the Treasury Board promised us that March 31 was the deadline, that no delays would be accepted in applying the Official Languages Act and that all senior public officials would be required to comply.
How can the President of the Treasury Board justify that the President of Canada Post came and told the committee yesterday that of the five cases that do not comply with the act at Canada Post, two of the individuals would be retiring in the next few years—so he was not doing anything about them—and the other three individuals in question would soon be registering for French courses? Is this the President of the Treasury Board's solution?
Official Languages
Oral Question Period
2:55 p.m.
Lucienne Robillard President of the Treasury Board
Mr. Speaker, the Bloc Quebecois member should know that Canada Post, as a crown corporation, is not subject to the same employer policies as the Treasury Board. I would think that he should be aware of this, given how long he has been a member of Parliament. Canada Post is required to have its own policies to fulfill its obligations, based on the Official Languages Act.

Canadian Alliance
Cheryl Gallant Renfrew—Nipissing—Pembroke, ON
Mr. Speaker, members of Parliament are elected to represent their constituents. Is the reason that the government is afraid to call a byelection in Perth—Middlesex because it knows the voters will turn the election into a plebiscite on the government's billion dollar gun registry fiasco?
Oral Question Period

Don Boudria Minister of State and Leader of the Government in the House of Commons
Mr. Speaker, I thought there was only one member across the way with a morbid fear of Brian Innes, Liberal candidate, soon to be MP for the riding of Perth—Middlesex. However it is now noted that this is a widespread affliction across the way, soon to be cured by the byelection and subsequent victory of the Liberal candidate and future MP.

Jocelyne Girard-Bujold Jonquière, QC
Mr. Speaker, the stakeholders in the Saguenay—Lac-Saint-Jean region are about to apply for federal government assistance to purchase the dairy plant in Chambord. They are seeking an endorsement from the federal government to cover part of the acquisition costs.
The Secretary of State in charge of Economic Development made a commitment in this respect at the time of the byelection in Lac-Saint-Jean—Saguenay. Does he still intend to respond positively to this request and act quickly so that the community can purchase this plant within the allotted timeframe?

Claude Drouin Secretary of State (Economic Development Agency of Canada for the Regions of Quebec)
Mr. Speaker, from the outset, we told producers and processors that we would be there for them and that we were prepared to cover the costs of a study. This offer still stands. Our regional office is following this file very closely, and we will be monitoring the situation and applications by promoters. I can assure the House that Canada Economic Development will continue its work in that region, as in every other region of Quebec.
Oral Question Period
3 p.m.
Joe Comartin Windsor—St. Clair, ON
Mr. Speaker, my question is for the Minister for International Cooperation. The evidence seems to be mounting to suggest that the border infrastructure file has changed hands from the Minister of Industry to the Minister for International Cooperation.
It has come to our attention that the minister was a participant in a so-called secret meeting in early March with a number of Windsor area councillors to discuss border infrastructure funding.
What role did the minister's office play in facilitating this secret meeting?
Oral Question Period
3 p.m.
Parry Sound—Muskoka
Andy Mitchell Secretary of State (Rural Development) (Federal Economic Development Initiative for Northern Ontario)
Mr. Speaker, the investments that we intend to make in border infrastructure are critical to our trade. We are having discussions with a wide range of stakeholders to ensure that the investments we make are the rights ones done in the right way.
That is the commitment of the Minister of Industry. He continues to work on this file, with the widespread support of all members of Parliament on this side, including the member from Windsor.
Oral Question Period
3 p.m.
Progressive Conservative
Joe Clark Calgary Centre, AB
Mr. Speaker, the Deputy Prime Minister referred specifically to several submissions which led to keeping open the Barbados tax loophole which proved so attractive to Canada Steamship Lines.
Would he table those submissions that he mentioned so specifically and would he indicate to which minister they were addressed?
Oral Question Period
3 p.m.
Ottawa South
John Manley Deputy Prime Minister and Minister of Finance
Mr. Speaker, the member will know that we are talking about events that occurred eight years ago.
Certainly if the submissions are in a form that can be made available to him, I have no hesitation in allowing him to have access to them.

Mr. Speaker, I would love to ask the government House leader about the business for the rest of this week and next week. I would also ask him when he is going to bring in the legislation so that murderers will not be able to vote in the byelection in Perth—Middlesex that we are so looking forward to because we expect that Marian Meinen--

Order. I was afraid the hon. member for West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast might resurrect question period. This is of course the Thursday question and I know the government House leader will want to resist going off on tangents and will deal with the question of the business of the House.
Business of the House
Oral Question Period
3 p.m.
Don Boudria Minister of State and Leader of the Government in the House of Commons
Mr. Speaker, the continuing fear of Liberal candidate Brian Innes is duly noted, but this afternoon the House will continue with the opposition day motion on the war in Iraq. There are discussions going on with regard to this subject which may continue today and otherwise.
As previously ordered, the House will not be sitting tomorrow.
On Monday, pursuant to what I just stated, we will return to consideration of Bill C-13, the reproductive technologies legislation, followed by report stage of Bill C-9, the environmental assessment legislation.
I am also looking forward, with the usual cooperation of all hon. members for an appropriate time and hopefully very soon, to resuming the consideration of the Senate amendments to Bill C-10, the Criminal Code amendments.
Thursday of next week, in other words a week from today, shall be an allotted day.
In the event that there are additions or other changes to this business, I shall communicate with other House leaders through the usual channels.
The House resumed consideration of the motion.

Canadian Alliance
John Reynolds West Vancouver—Sunshine Coast, BC
Mr. Speaker, I want to continue on with my comments to the government House leader that Marian Meinen, our candidate for Perth—Middlesex, will certainly enjoy the speech I am making. I know she is looking forward to being in the House with all of us and she knows how important this debate is today.
All Canadians have seen the motion that we put before the House and will not understand if there is even one member who votes against this motion because it is such an important part of what is happening in Canada today.
Canadians are understandably confused as to why it should be necessary for the official opposition to endeavour to tell our American friends that the vast majority of Canadians want to remain friends. It worries Canadians that the present Prime Minister, as lame a duck as he is, is still capable of throwing more strain upon our enduring friendship.
Canadians are as bewildered as they are confused. They are wondering why the former finance minister, the member for LaSalle—Émard, is not speaking out against those who hurl insults at our American friends and their administration in Washington. We all know he so desperately wants to be Prime Minister that he will say anything anywhere if it will win him one more delegate vote. He will promise anything to anybody and then hit the dirt when the controversy arises. Canadians wonder why he will not at least speak out on the way his party has turned its back on our American allies. Is becoming leader of that party just too important for him to find the courage to speak out?
The member for LaSalle—Émard reminds me of a recent cartoon in the New Yorker magazine. I believe the caption beneath the cartoon describes perfectly the former finance minister's approach to politics. The caption reads, "It could go badly or it could go well, depending on whether it goes badly or well". It sounds like something the present Prime Minister would say. Does that not capture in a few words the former finance minister? For that matter, would it not be an appropriate caption to stick under a photo of the present Prime Minister?
All of us in this party believe that the reckless statements of certain members of the House have strained our relations with the United States and we regret that. We can assure our friends to the south that the rabidly anti-American New Democratic Party does not speak for or even draw the attention of the majority of Canadians. I think they should know in the United States that the majority of voters in ridings held by Liberals are not rabidly anti-American; it is only their Liberal members of Parliament who are.
I do not think Americans have to be reminded, and the Liberals and New Democrats should remember, that in World War I 35,000 Americans joined the Canadian army. They joined before America entered the war in 1917. Again in World War II approximately 30,000 Americans joined the Canadian Forces before the U.S.A. entered the war. They came voluntarily because they wanted to do what was right. They wanted to fight for freedom against fascism. They wanted to help their good friends and neighbours who were going overseas to fight for democracy and freedom.
No matter how controversial it was and became, there were Canadians who went south to join the American military in the war in Vietnam. And who will ever forget what Canadian diplomats did to help six Americans escape from Iran? Ambassador Kenneth Taylor received the congressional gold medal for that from the president at the time, Ronald Reagan.
We know how the present Prime Minister likes to boast about how he takes no nonsense from the Americans. We just wish he had waited until he was long gone from office. Surely he could have spent his retirement years boasting instead of doing it now in public when some media still listen to what he says.
Here is another question for the member for LaSalle—Émard. The Prime Minister and so many of the member's leadership supporters in caucus believe that the Bush regime is illegitimate. Does he agree or does he disagree? It is time the former finance minister came out of the closet. Is he anti-American like so many of his supporters and the Prime Minister? Or does he agree with us that the Americans are not just our closest neighbours by virtue of our geography, but also our closest friends and allies by virtue of our history?
Mr. Speaker, I should mention that I am splitting my time with my colleague.
One would think that the ancient mariner might find time to let Canadians know what he thinks. If he ever does become prime minister, Canadians might like fair warning so they can develop new investment strategies. They will need those new strategies if the rabid and venomous anti-American rhetoric continues to spew from his supporters.
I think we want him to clear the air so we know that he has at least one opinion on our relations with the United States. Surely it is not too much to ask of a man who wants to be prime minister to have at least one opinion.
Then we have the incredible hulk of the New Democratic Party. He is one who thundered that the American administration is killing babies. We thought that party had decided to give that sort of foolish rhetoric a rest back in the 1960s. Of course, that is a party that never really left the 1960s and most of its members do not know there have been a few new books written since then.
Why are we concerned on this side? We think supporting our allies in a fight against brutal tyrants is the right thing to do, but we are also concerned abut the impact that Liberal anti-Americanism will have on Canadians and Canada.
Anecdotal evidence is coming in already. We are hearing of conventions being cancelled or preliminary discussions on conventions being halted. We are hearing of small businesses that do business in the United States getting the cold shoulder from longtime clients and friends.
We hear that hunting and fishing lodges are either getting cancellations or far fewer inquiries from the United States than in previous years.
We hope Canadians will remember it was the Liberals backed by their kissing cousins in the New Democratic Party who did not care what the economic fallout might be. They have vowed they will never join our allies and will continue hurling insults at them.
We hope Canadians employed in the auto manufacturing industry remember it was the Liberals and New Democrats they will have to thank for the disappearance of their jobs.
In my beautiful province, people involved in the softwood lumber industry are already feeling the pain and are wishing the Liberals and the New Democrats would zipper their lips.
Of course there are others, the victims of Saddam Hussein who are trying to understand why Liberals and New Democrats are siding with him instead of those who would run that brutal tyrant out of Iraq.
The business community is wondering why the natural resources minister is still in cabinet after his criticism of President Bush. They are certainly wondering why there has been no apology.
If the Liberals just once in their history would listen to Albertans, and I know that would be difficult for them, they would hear how much the comment of the natural resources minister concerns them. It was totally inappropriate and the Prime Minister knew it and knows it now. His problem is he does not have any other loyalists left to elevate to cabinet. It must be embarrassing for the Prime Minister just as it is for all Canadians. It would embarrass anyone to have to admit that they could not demote a cabinet minister because they did not have the talent or the loyalty in the rest of the caucus to produce a replacement.
We should also let the parents of the brave sons and daughters who are with the American military in Iraq know that Liberals and New Democrats do not speak for all Canadians. We in the Alliance share the worry and the grief of those American parents and our hearts go out to them. We cannot forget either that there are Canadian parents with children in the American military. Our prayers and thoughts are with them as well.
It is unfortunate that the present Prime Minister and the ones who aspire to replace him all share the same anti-American sentiment. It is not just unfortunate, it is shameful.
We have done our utmost on this side to let our American neighbours know that the anti-Americanism is not as rampant on this side of the border as the government would paint. We want them to know that it is only rampant among Liberal and New Democratic Party members of Parliament.
We apologize for that on behalf of all Canadians who cherish our friendship with the United States. We apologize to them as well that one of those parties has already elected an anti-American leader and that all of the candidates for the leadership of the Liberal Party are anti-American.
We insist that Americans understand one thing and bear it in mind: Canadians are not anti-American. It is only Liberals and New Democrats who are and we hope Canadians will remember that and remedy it in the next election.

Saving An American Icon
America's movie theaters must make costly upgrades by the end of the year in order to continue operating.
Come the end of 2013, 35mm film will no longer be produced, and digital film will become the new industry standard. Every theater that has not yet made the upgrade will be forced to do so in order to stay in business, and the investment could cost more than $70,000.
Park 60 Drive-In, a family-owned-and-operated theater that opened to a line of more than 300 vehicles in 2001, currently runs two 35mm projectors, both of which will have to be retired. Belinda Eckman, who owns and operates the drive in with her husband Dale, their three children, Tom, Caleb and Jenna and their mother, Sylvia Erwin, built the drive-in from the ground up in an area where drive-in theaters had a history of going out of business. Yet, the Eckman family has found success, and spent the past decade becoming an integral part of the community.
"When we opened in 2001 the focus was technology and the next big thing," Eckman said. "But, we were building a dinosaur so to speak – something that has come and gone. I think it goes to show that people like the simplicity of a drive-in. It's easy, there's no thinking, you come in and you have a good time."
According to Eckman, in order to ensure that their theater doesn't go dark, she opted to participate in Honda's Project Drive-In, which aims to save at least five drive-ins that may be unable to purchase the costly digital projector upgrades.
"We use Simplex projectors which are probably from the 1960s. They are gear-run machines, and as long as they have oil they will last forever with minimal maintenance," Eckman said. "We know how to fix our machines now if something breaks, but the digital projectors are a whole new world. I think it's a great technology, and I'm not against digital, but the expense is huge versus what we currently have. There are pros on cons, and the biggest con is the expense."
Because the Park 60 Drive-In runs two projectors, Eckman hopes that they can win the digital upgrade from Honda so that they could then invest in a second themselves.
"Our hearts are into the drive-in and keeping it open, but it's going to boil down to a financial decision – what it's going to cost and how long it's going to take to pay for that equipment," Eckman said. "My feeling is that there is no cheaper way to help something stay then to get online or text to vote. There are such a limited number of drive-ins left in the entire country, and they play such an important part. So, I hope that people see that the drive-in is beneficial for both enjoyment and tourism."
According to Emily and Dana Harrington, two Park 60 Drive-In regulars, they are an unlikely couple who may have the drive-in to thank, in part, for bringing them together.
"We really enjoyed hanging out together, but there wasn't always that common activity for us to do," Mrs. Harrington said. "But, he had a Jeep Wrangler and during the first summer we were dating we decided to go to the drive-in. Our first experience was with the Corry Drive-In, and we just had a blast – we loved it so much. Because I was living in Jamestown at the time we decided going to the Park 60 Drive-In every weekend. We did that for about three years before introducing ourselves to Belinda, and since then everyone knows us. It's our romantic thing to do – we like being out under the stars."
"We live in a world that is ever more impersonal, and you don't really have to interface with people if you don't want to," Harrington added. "It's very fast paced, and there's always something required of you. So, it's really nice to have a place to go where life slows down a little bit and it's much more personal – it's really about the people and the experience you're having together."
Park 60 Drive-In is located at 1529 Foote Ave in Jamestown. For more information call 484-6060, visit www.park60.com or search for "Park 60 Drive-In" on Facebook.
Park 60 Drive-In is among nearly 367 drive-ins across America that are required to make the digital conversion by the end of the year.
Honda is currently hosting a national competition called Project Drive-in, which aims to provide five drive-ins with a new digital projector. In order to win the projector, Park 60 Drive-In needs votes, and there are two ways to do so: visit www.projectdrivein.com/vote_45 and by texting VOTE45 to 444999. Users can vote twice per day, every day, once via the website and once by text. Voting has already begun, and it will continue until Monday, Sept. 9, at 11:59 p.m. The winners will be announced shortly thereafter.
Eckman's brother, Brian, owns Erwin's Comet Drive-In in Connellsville, Pa., which is also participating in the competition. To vote for his drive-in, visit www.projectdrivein.com/vote_69 or text VOTE69 to 444999.
In addition to voting, there are several other ways in which people can help save their local drive-in theaters. Spreading awareness of the project and the fact that theaters need to make the costly upgrade is a key factor in ensuring that none are forgotten. Visiting the theaters themselves and spending money is also a way to invest in the business' future.
Another way is to contribute to the general drive-in fund, in which proceeds will be donated to drive-ins in need, by visiting www.projectdrivein.com and clicking on "Make A Contribution." According to the website, nearly $15,000 of the $100,000 goal has already been raised, but only 52 days are left.
Drive-Ins aren't the only theaters required to make the digital conversion. Every theater across America that currently utilizes 35mm film and projectors will no longer be able to do so.
Independent theaters, such as The Reg Lenna Civic Center, The 1891 Fredonia Opera House and Struthers Library Theatre in Warren, Pa., have also been faced with the digital conversion ultimatum.
The Reg Lenna Civic Center began a campaign in February called "Donate For Digital," which according to The Reg Lenna's box office manager, Lynn Warner, has not raised enough funds to purchase the upgrades.
"We could be looking at $80-90,000 total when it's all said and done," Warner said. "Sadly, the community component has not been what we were hoping for. I know that people are being asked from many different directions to contribute these days, but I don't know that the community realizes that this is not a luxury – it's something necessary if we want to continue with the film component of our programming."
Those who wish to make a donation can visit www.reglenna.com and click on the button labeled donate. In addition to supporting the theater by making donations, area residents can also purchase tickets to one of the theater's events. Warner also said that she is willing to hear any creative ideas for fundraising opportunities. One example of a creative fundraiser is that Jamestown Paranormal is considering hosting a spend-the-night at the Reg tour in which they take a small percentage and donate the rest of the proceeds towards the digital campaign. For more information call 484-7070.
Struthers Library Theatre has already invested in the upgrades, thanks to the DeFrees Foundation and a gift from the Friends of the Library Theatre group, and is currently utilizing the new technology. For more information visit strutherslibrarytheatre.com.
The 1891 Fredonia Opera House has also installed a new digital cinema projection system for use in presenting its "Cinema Series." Funding for the system was provided, in part, by contributions to the organization's capital campaign, "Maintain And Sustain … A Capital Campaign for the Next 20 Years," which is currently underway. A portion of the upgrade was also financed in order to complete the installation. For more information call 679-0891 or visit www.fredopera.org.

I had a few stories I wanted to share, and I resisted writing on here until they reached some sort of critical mass. I felt a little weird suddenly posting over and over again. I think getting into ob/gyn residency has jazzed me up in a way that cannot be ignored. I'm trying to look at it as a rejuvenation of my spirit for blogging and medicine, and not overthink what it meant about my spirit and confidence over the last two years. Anyhooooo….
Plus, I have worked ob/gyn clinic for two straight blocks recently, simply a complete coincidence, because neither of these two blocks are going to count at my new site. Ob/gyn just lends itself to a bunch of hilarious stories. I have a serious delve-into-the-evidence-because-something-is-stuck-in-my-craw kind of post a brewin', but I won't mix that in with the fun stuff from today.
Needless to say, no names are used, no specific descriptors are used (except for tattoos, I guess), not all stories are recent, and details are bent to obscure the innocent. None of these are my real patients, they are all stories about my cousin Susan's adventures in health care, rewritten as my own patients to make it easier. And, needless to say, this is ob/gyn related stuff, so if discussion of private parts and fluids gets you discombobulated, you may want to go look at some lolcatz or something.
Story # 1
A patient and her husband were explaining a recent trip to the patient's gynecologist (I was seeing her as a family practice resident). She was having an irritation down below. Her husband's helpful explanation of the diagnosis: "My sperm, when it comes out, it's so hot it BURNS her." Emphasis emphatically his. I bit down a giggle and asked, "Sir, if this isn't too personal, may I ask if your sperm has ever touched your own skin? Say, on your hand? It didn't burn you, right? I don't think that's the issue here."
Story # 2
This one is an in-the-biz special.
Heard on the labor floor: "I know! The pink one is for the girls, and the blue one is for the boys, right?" I kind of thought the pastel colored binary gender straps were a bit silly, but I didn't think they'd be confusing. Maybe I should have.
(For those not in the birth biz, that is an external fetal monitor. Both of those get used on everybody, regardless of the gender of the in-utero passenger.)
Story # 3
Maybe I should have realized it could be confusing or important to patients. At a two week postpartum follow up, a mother's biggest complaint: "Everyone keeps getting him confused with a girl." I eyed the 13 day old wrinkled baby in a blue hat, blue clothes, blue car seat covered with a blue blanket suspiciously as he slept in a very non-gender specific way. "I don't think he's very worried about that right now." What I wanted to say was, "Now I think it's a bit early to start imposing roles on it, don't you?" in my best Graham Chapman voice, but I restrained myself.
Story # 4
I see a lot of interesting tattoos in my line of work. I have two tattoos, and I am not judging people who have them. In fact, having a tattoo in certain age groups is actually more common that not having one. Some of the people I hung out with when I was younger had some highly questionable tattoos. A friend of mine dated someone who had a tattoo on his leg of a manatee with an erection. That was only one of the list of questions I had about her choice of this guy, but hey, poor dating choices happen to the best of us.
I was triaging a young woman in labor, and when I raised her gown to attach the eternal fetal monitors (as seen above) to her burgeoning belly, I saw two dolphins dancing on either side of her navel. I said "Oh, look! Dolphins!" Then I glanced at the cursive writing underneath her navel. It read "Wet Pussy". And they say the kids aren't learning cursive these days. Wait, maybe that's a good thing for her offspring.
Not judging. Not judging.
I also saw "Respect My Mind" tattooed on a patient's hand, which I kind of liked. It was next to a 305, which is our area code here in Miami-Dade, for the reader who is not a local, or isn't familiar with Pitbull. (Ironically, also my birthday. OG, here. Ironic because the longest I've ever listened to the song was just now to copy the link.) It's a common tattoo, on that always makes me sarcastically wonder if they're afraid they'll forget the area code. Maybe they just want to remember my birthday. If she did forget the area code, I'd have trouble respecting her mind. Or, I would at least try to figure out why she wasn't oriented.
I saw "Most Hated", which I kind of didn't like. Well, it made me wonder about the history and self esteem of the patient. It also reminded me of the brother of a tattoo artist in a city I lived in years ago, a brother who was notorious for being a conceited, inebriated, loud, omnipresent nuisance. He had the nickname of "the Hated Joe Schmo". Even though he was covered with tattoos, courtesy of his super cool brother, I don't think he had "Most Hated". It would have been appropriate.
I saw "Live Fast Die Pretty" on someone's arm. That made me giggle.
Story #5
Not really a funny story, but something I wanted to share. I was wrapping up my ob/gyn rotation, and one of the nursing students who was also at the site told me that she would want to go to me as an obstetrician if she was ever pregnant. I am always grateful and pretty much floored when someone from inside the system tells me that. We were working with several wonderful obstetricians at the time. I don't think it was a commentary against them. I don't mean to get all sappy, but I think I love it so much, it really shows when I am talking to a patient. I also think it is uncommon for someone to be a mother, a patient, and frankly an adult with real world problems before becoming a physician. I am not knocking my younger peers. They say they don't know how I do it as a mom. I don't know how they do it as a young adult coming of age. I think my empathy comes from a different place than some physicians. Even physicians who are parents often became parents second, and were navigating the medical side of pregnancy and birth with a much greater ease and insider perspective when they went through it.
Should I throw in another story of hot jizz to wrap this up? I am fresh out, at this time. Let's see if this newly renewed excitement carries through to me finishing the post about epidurals and informed consent, too.
Until then, live fast and die pretty.

In short: It's London, what more can be said overcrowded but so much funDate of review: April 26, 2012
In short: A great alternative to LondonIn full: If you want a race that is not crowded like VLM then Brighton is for you, course has a few upflats but for the most is level, good roads and loads of water/energy drink pointsDate of review: April 17, 2012
In short: Great fun with some lumpy bitsIn full: This race was moved from March to November but was still great fun, lumpy route was challenging at times but enough aid stations along the route.Date of review: November 13, 2011
In short: It's not a race it's a warIn full: Ok a little dramatic I know but that is how I feel about this race/war...each hill is a battle to be won and it nearly defeats you on so many occasions. The views are first class, the crowd and organisation brilliant...Would hate to do this race in the rain as you are extremely exposed on the hills...It also take you through some lovely forests, quiet little villages and right to the top of every steep hills the organisers can find....I will go back just not for a while.Date of review: October 22, 2011
In short: Simply amazingIn full: First Iron distance event and I blown away by everything from the organisation, registration, the course, marshals, volunteers, feed stations to the medals. My only minor gripe (and it is really minor) was there could have been more room in the changing/bag hanging area.The course is fantastic and amazingly scenic to.I will be back next year along with 50 other PiratesDate of review: July 30, 2011
In short: Testing course, well organised raceDate of review: May 22, 2011
In short: A well kept secretIn full: A really enjoyable race, only a small field but it had a personal feel to everything from loads of parking at the start to the happy marshals on the route. The course is a lot hillier then i thought it would be, this mixed with the 23.c temp made it hard going, loads of water and sponge stops helped.Will do this again for sureDate of review: May 8, 2011
In short: Brilliant raceIn full: First time running this, great pre-race set up. Couse was great a real challenge, loved the hills and the marshals were first class, more than enough water and a top goody bag to boot.TW Harriers can be proud.Date of review: February 27, 2011
In short: As usual a first class raceIn full: Benfleet Running club always excel themselves with this race, the course is challenging but fun with the mud an added bonus. the organisation and marshals on the course are outstanding. Will be back next year for sure.Date of review: January 23, 2011
In short: Hell Frozen Over!!In full: Bliddy cold but a great day again, VIP parking a must for ths now....See you next yearDate of review: November 29, 2010

By the time hockey fans start arriving on Friday for the Blue Jackets game against the Canadiens, members of the Nationwide Arena culinary crew will be well into their second day of preparing the vast array of food to be consumed throughout the night.
All 66 of them.
The feeding of 18,000 people, after all, takes plenty of hands and ample time — especially when one menu doesn't serve all.
Depending on the area of the arena — lower bowl or upper bowl, Club Level or Suite Level, Time Warner Cable HD Lounge or party tower — the house-made choices might vary widely.
And, in recent years, the offerings have become increasingly elaborate, thanks largely to the growing popularity of the Food Network and the rise of the "celebrity chef," said John DiGiovanni, one of three primary arena chefs.
"There is so much more of an emphasis on where food comes from," said DiGiovanni, who, like the rest of the staff, works for Delaware North Cos., a Buffalo, N.Y., hospitality-management service that contracts with Nationwide Arena.
"When eating, you want to be dazzled; you want to be entertained."
In addition to DiGiovanni, the chief responsibility for arena food preparations falls to head chef Joe Ditri and chef Ed Kowalski.
Here's an overview of how they go about feeding a hockey crowd:
Joe Ditri
As the head chef, Ditri adheres to one motto: If it can be made in-house, make it.
Which explains why he spent the day before a recent Jackets game mixing three types of sausage: Polish, spicy Italian and his signature Buffalo chicken.
"I don't like to buy anything prepackaged," said Ditri, who oversees all food areas, with a special focus on the main concessions (upper and lower concourses).
"We could buy Polish sausage, but we want to have the best stadium food in Ohio."
To that end, the chefs have sought to tweak and enhance the food selections, especially in the past year or so.
This NHL season, for example, they introduced the Arena Smokehouse on the main concourse — their "best investment," Ditri said.
The outlet offers pulled pork, brisket and turkey — all smoked in the arena.
"Ninety percent of people would think we bought that," DiGiovanni said.
One popular Smokehouse option is bacon-on-a-stick — 2.5 ounces of grilled hickory bacon served with homemade Slapshot mustard sauce.
"It's got a kick to it," attested South Side resident Crystal Harmon, who along with her daughter, Jordan, recently tried some.
Harmon, a season-ticket holder for three years, has noticed — and appreciates — the culinary upgrades.
"It's neat getting the different options."
Also new on the main concourse is a stand with freshly baked pies, brownies and cheesecakes.
The Front Street Market, opened last season on the main concourse, has a counterpart this season on the upper concourse: the High Street Market.
Both sites peddle more healthful options, including hand-rolled California sushi rolls and handcrafted Triple Decker peanut-butter-and-jelly sandwiches.
Randy Nipps, an original season-ticket holder from Granville, is hooked on the sushi rolls.
"I get tired of burgers and fries, pulled pork," Nipps said. "It's a nice alternative to sandwiches."
On the Club Level, the distinct choices include stromboli, Caprese panini and portobello-mushroom quesadillas. Though not new this season, all are assembled by Ditri's team.
Several hours before a game, with most of the food prepared, Ditri tours the arena, visiting each of the seven kitchens to sample food, then stopping at public areas to check on the presentation.
At the media room and Time Warner lounge, at the Club and Suite levels, he tests food temperatures, briefs servers and maybe wipes a spot from a dirty hot plate.
One of the most important parts of his job, however, plays out after the food is prepared, cooked and served — when he queries fans, eager to know what they think.
"We're always moving stands around because of customer feedback," he said.
"When you have something different, sometimes it works; sometimes it doesn't."
Ed Kowalski
Kowalski manages the catering for the 52 suites and two party towers, including six larger private viewing rooms.
"When I tell people I am an arena chef," he said, "they say, 'You make hot dogs and nachos.' That's the perception of what we as chefs do here."
The arena, of course, sells hundreds of hot dogs and nachos at each home game — "We are first and foremost a sports venue," Kowalski acknowledged — but the chefs pride themselves on the upgrades.
"We're not just chefs in name," he said. "We have the skills to back it up."
In his role, Kowalski helps his team of almost 20 people fill custom orders suite by suite and tower by tower — chosen from a menu crafted before the start of the season in early October.
The options range from simple standards such as popcorn and hot pretzels to adventurous alternatives such as seven-layer bean dip (served in individual dishes), poached prawns and beef tenderloin.
All potato chips and tortilla chips are house-made.
The chicken wings boast house-made sauces, including Dr Pepper barbecue sauce and (the extremely spicy) ghost-pepper sauce.
On busy nights, Kowalski and company might serve as many as 3,000 people.
The biggest challenge on game day, he said, has to do with the oven timing — so all food is heated by the time the doors open.
Although he has worked at the arena for eight years, only recently has Kowalski felt free to show off more culinary creativity.
"It used to be that about 30 percent of the menu items were mine," he said. "Now, we pretty much have carte blanche."
John DiGiovanni
With his crew, DiGiovanni focuses on the broadest mix of people: fans in the Time Warner lounge, players and their families, and catered parties in private rooms and on terraces.
They start home-game days by serving breakfast to players.
He works with the strength-and-conditioning coach on pre-game meals but is more relaxed with his post-game snacks. (Fajitas and sushi, he said, rank among the favorites.)
His preparations for the lounge buffet, which caters to as many as 450 people a game, actually begin a week out, when he turns in his menu (different for every game).
Recently, DiGiovanni — who was trained at Disney World in central Florida — has taken inspiration from the French cookbook The Art of Cuisine.
Which explains the duck-fat-roasted Yukon potatoes and pork-belly confit with braised fennel and grapefruit that he prepared for a recent buffet.
Also on the menu that night: bread pudding, custom-seared by a line cook.
With the more elaborate fixings, he said, he has seen heightened anticipation from lounge customers.
"In the beginning, I think, it was a pleasant surprise," he said. "Now it's 'That was great. What are you going to do next time?'"
Season-ticket holder Lil Bullock, having recently visited Consol Energy Center, judges the selections at the Pittsburgh arena as falling short of those at Nationwide.
"The food isn't nearly as good, and I don't think they have as much variety," said Bullock, a Gahanna resident. "Here, it's gotten better — impressively better."
Beyond the lounge buffet, DiGiovanni's team prepares meals for the families of Blue Jackets players and coaches — about 100 in all — in two special lounges.
The far-flung demands keep him and his staff moving throughout Nationwide Arena.
The pedometer he routinely wears confirms the challenge: "I walk 15 miles on game day," DiGiovanni said.
Added head chef Ditri: "I probably double that."

Extended maintenance of Ruby versions 1.8.7 and 1.9.2 ended on July 31, 2014. Read more
Reads ios until pattern matches or the timeout is over. It returns an array with the read buffer, followed by the matches. If a block is given, the result is yielded to the block and returns nil. The optional timeout parameter defines, in seconds, the total time to wait for pattern. If it is over of eof is found, it returns/yields nil. However, the buffer in a timeout session is kept for the next expect call. The default timeout is 9999999 seconds.
# File pty/lib/expect.rb, line 10 def expect(pat,timeout=9999999) buf = '' case pat when String e_pat = Regexp.new(Regexp.quote(pat)) when Regexp e_pat = pat else raise TypeError, "unsupported pattern class: #{pattern.class}" end @unusedBuf ||= '' while true if not @unusedBuf.empty? c = @unusedBuf.slice!(0).chr elsif !IO.select([self],nil,nil,timeout) or eof? then result = nil @unusedBuf = buf break else c = getc.chr end buf << c if $expect_verbose STDOUT.print c STDOUT.flush end if mat=e_pat.match(buf) then result = [buf,*mat.to_a[1..-1]] break end end if block_given? then yield result else return result end nil end

Happy Birthday Cancers!
So today is the big 25, whewww! I would also like to wish a happy happy birthday to Alien Man as well...because our mamas decided to have us on the same day. There are also a few other bloggers who have birthdays this week so I want to say happy birthday to you too! Today is going well so far...I didn't take off of work because Tuesday is such a random day. I'm also taking off the Monday after 4th of July for my mini vacay back home to Orlando.
Tonight I have dinner plans with the boyfriend. He already surprised me with flowers this morning...he left a dozen white roses in my kitchen with a note that said "For my friend..." and then when I got into my car this morning, there was another dozen red roses with a note that said "For my lover...". He's on point so far...I can't wait for what he's got in store this evening.
With that said...I haven't got really anything makeup related. I've been re-organizing and packing my traincase for my wedding gig this weekend--7 bridesmaids, I gotta pack smart!
I've been trying to think of a fun makeup look to wear to dinner tonight, do you guys have any recommendations?
Love you all!

Oak Hills Brewery
Established: August 1990
2014 Brewery Production: 157 batches • 1871.50 kegs • 232,066 pints
Launched in the foothills of Beaverton in 1990, the Oak Hills Brewery, like the Lighthouse before it, put the brewer in the closest thing to a fishbowl among Portland breweries: It's near impossible for any customer to escape the action during the brewing process. Currently staffed by resident brewer Stephen Harper, Oak Hills tap board can be counted on to have a full range of interesting styles.
Oak Hills regulars were vocal and voracious imbibers of Bagdad Ale, so much so that the Edgefield staple became a part of Oak Hills regular brewing rotation along with other company standards and seasonals. Many memorable brews have sprung from its fermenters over the years — including Rhino Stout, It Goes to 11 (Spinal Tap Barleywine), and some of our earliest attempts at producing a Kiwi Fruit Ale. It was also the home of a very early regular fan favorite dubbed Apollo Pale Ale, made by one of our pioneer brewers Scott Barrow.
Interested in purchasing a keg? Call the brewery at (503) 645-0117 and review our list of keg sales frequently asked questions.
