Rebecca Duarte (Becky)
Becky watched the man across the aisle with interest. He was drawing something on a sketchpad and she kept craning her neck to try and see what it was.
He kept glancing up at her and she looked away quickly before he could catch her eye. Although she was fluent in seven languages, Becky was afraid to speak to people because she had a stammer. As a child it had only affected her when she was stressed out over something, but it had slowly gotten worse as she grew older until speech was almost a phobia of Becky's. She had barely spoken three sentences in the past few months because of it. People just expected her to stammer now. They joked about it. But for poor Becky it was no laughing matter. She knew she could speak normally, but the fear of what others thought of her was the only thing that was holding her back.
Now don't get the wrong idea about her, Becky was by no means 'nothing special'. She was a stunningly beautiful girl that left most men staring after her long after she had walked past. She had long legs that went on forever and her hair was dark red and hung in loose curls down to her waist. She was fairly slim and she had that perfect hourglass shape that every woman would kill for. But all of these things Rebecca Duarte just didn't realise. She saw herself as plain and insignificant. She didn't know how much of a treasure she really was.
Becky had a cramp in her left foot and so she slowly uncrossed her long legs and stood up to walk down the aisle of the plane. As she did so, she caught a glimpse of what the man had been working on. Immediately she wished she had never looked. He had drawn a picture of a plane in flames, heading towards the sea. Becky's stomach lurched as the plane that she was actually on hit a small patch of turbulence.
She made her way down to the toilet as quickly as possible and proceeded to empty the contents of her stomach.
I hate flying! she thought miserably.

Over last week's Thanksgiving holiday, many Americans will have paused to savor the blessings of health, family and community. Some of us will have binged on too much turkey and consumption-crazed Black Friday sales. But for the world's biggest pesticide and seed biotech companies, the entire year has been one long feeding frenzy. This frenzy culminated in recent months in a multi-billion dollar spending spree in which, reports Bloomberg, three of the "Big 6" pesticide companies (Syngenta, Bayer and BASF) together shelled out over two billion dollars to acquire...

EPA recently reviewed the links between mothers' exposure to pesticides during pregnancy and children's health outcomes, highlighting recent findings in its online newsletter Science Matters. The article, entitled "Mothers Matter: Looking for a Healthy Start," presents the latest science linking prenatal exposure with reduced birth weight and disrupted brain and nervous system development, among other health harms. It's very good that EPA is explicitly communicating science, with the implicit intent to change policy. What's still missing is pesticide use... Read More

Like others across the country, this Thursday I'll be joining extended family and friends to celebrate each other and the earth's bounty. I look forward to meeting up with cousins coming to town from distant cities, and enjoying the yummy dishes we'll all contribute to the feast. I'm also hoping we keep the acephate, methamidophos and chlorothalonil off the menu. (Easy for me to say, right?) Sadly, according to government testing, these hard-to-pronounce pesticides are among those commonly found on green beans. And they're not good for you. Green beans are among the... Read More

Pop quiz: Q1: What is the worst environmental disaster in U.S. history? Q2: What U.S. law provides the single largest source of federal funding for environmental conservation? Answers: The Dust Bowl and the Farm Bill. And these two facts have everything to do with one another. As Ken Burns reminds us with his new PBS documentary, The Dust Bowl, the 2012 North America Drought that has devastated farmers and ranchers from Texas to Ontario could have been much, much worse. While this drought may yet turn out to be the most expensive in U.S. history, we have not seen... Read More

Across California, people from a variety of backgrounds — and for a variety of reasons — showed incredible commitment to Prop 37, the ballot initiative for labeling GE food. While the measure was narrowly defeated, the movement grew stronger and the issue was put back on the national agenda. Here, we pause to reflect on the dedication and hard work of just a few of those involved in this momentous fight. Some faces may be recognizable, while others operated largely behind the scenes. Regardless, because of their commitment and effort — in concert with thousands of others... Read More

The rate of obesity in very young children — even infants — continues to climb. Evidence is building that obesity-promoting chemicals called obesogens are contributing to this alarming trend. Some of these obesogens are pesticides that — as the ongoing study of endocrine disruption clarifies — can act at very low doses to interfere with all kinds of physiological processes. This includes, it turns out, triggering increased fat cell production. With children affected so early in life, it's become increasingly clear that genetic and behavioral factors alone... Read More

In March, we stopped the pesticide industry from pushing a cancer-causing chemical into California strawberry fields. Together, we won an incredible victory when Arysta LifeScience — maker of methyl iodide — pulled its hazardous product off the U.S. market. Now, we turn to "what's next," the important work of ensuring that strawberries truly get off the pesticide treadmill. California is poised to stimulate an innovative transition away from the use of all methyl iodide-like pesticides (fumigants) on strawberries — protecting health and the soil, both, for... Read More

Amidst the food movement's flurry of post-election analysis and reflection, here are two salient facts about California's ballot initiative fight over the proposed mandatory labeling of genetically engineered (GE) food: 1) Pesticide and processed food industries outspent a rag-tag citizen's coalition of pro-labeling forces by 5-to-1, and still only narrowly (53% v. 47%) defeated the initiative (Proposition 37); and 2) California's battle over GE labeling kick-started the national conversation in a way that's going to make it much harder for the U.S....

Environmental variables give users the ability to set up the command line to suit their own needs.
If you enter a command like ls in the shell, the shell knows that you want to call the /bin/ls program. Bash knows where on the filesystem to look for executables, so there is no need to type in the full path. This path is defined in what is known as an environmental variable. Variables of this kind are also used to modify the appearance of the shell prompt, set the time zone and the user's home directory, and other things.

Flying back to Amsterdam
... the fish market - sardines very small and larger , baby octopus , baby stingrays and other fish. It seemed that they all wanted to sell the fish before midday so lots of noise and smell of fish. It was quite a walk from the boat and back to collect our bags . The gap between the boat and the wharf was quite wide and high so very scary . But as usual I just asked for help. Then walked quite a way to the bus. The Split airport was absolute ...
Amsterdam in a day!
... holders can literally go straight in at their allotted time and queues were massive from quite early on in the morning for the main sights (2 hours for Anne Frank from 9am and then for most of the day)
I started my day with a Canal cruise, which is a great way to get an initial feel of the city and get your bearings. There are lot's of companies who offer this, I went with the #1 tour company as they were located very close ...
Parties and Pedestrians
... where it was still sticky hot. My roommates invited me out to a jazz club with them, but I am not fond of dancing or being out so late. I'm glad that I said no because they didn't return to the dorm until 5:30am, when I was already awake! They also brought back two random half-dressed girls, so…yeah. Today was my last day in the Netherlands; tomorrow I will take the train back to Paris.
Also, Happy 4th!
Amsterdam (Part 1 of 2)
... company "Amsterdam Canal Tours", as they offered a combination ticket of the canal tour, as well as entry to the Heineken Experience, which was conveniently located right across the street from where our canal tour departed from.
The canal tour was very informative! We had little headsets that we plugged in that provided the information in English. The tour took us all around the "hot spots" of the city - Anne Frank House, Royal Palace of Amsterdam, Nieuwe ...
Final thoughts
... I've loved every second of it and can thoroughly recommend it. The last week or so 'backpacking' seemed limited and slightly dull compared to the freedom and adventure offered by the touring bike! Sabrina has just agreed to come on my next adventure....on a tandem.....we just have to decide whether to go for a classic model or copy the French recumbent method!!?? So the next blog will be from both of us! (At least I think she agreed to that idea!?) ¡Buenos Noches Hasta Luego! X ...

Forgetting Is Just A DreamMature
India has a bizare, on off, unofficial relationship with Mark. Jamie, a new boy at her school falls for her, and tries to convince her that her unhealthy relationship isn't worth the hassle.
I would have slept for another hour at least, if those bloody birds hadn't been screaming away outside the window. I lay still for a moment, trying to summon the energy to push Mark's huge weight off me. I glanced at the clock; 10.57 am. I was uncomfortable; Mark's breath on my chest was too hot, and the sheets were twisted around my legs and waist.
I shoved Mark off me and slid out of bed. He grunted and rolled over. I stood over the bed for a moment, watching the steady rise and fall of his bare chest. Even in sleep he didn't look quite peaceful.
I hunted about the floor for my clothes, and pulled them on. The curtain was drawn, so the room was dark and as I pulled on my jeans I tripped and stumbled, hitting my head off one of his shelves.
"Oh fuck," I exclaimed, rubbing my head which was already pounding from last nights alcohol. I heard a groan from the bed.
"Sorry," I wishpered, and dodged out of the room before he woke up completley. I stumbled down the dingy stairs, and out onto the cold street. My phone rang; the sudden noise made me groan in agony, as my head seared.
"Yep?" I said.
"Ah, your up!" Came Alice's girly voice.
"Barely," I groaned. She laughed.
"So where did you get to last night? Did you go home?"
"Uhm, no I went home with Mark acually," I said meekly.
"Oh. Right," she said, "Well, I guess I'll see you around then."
"Alice wait-" I said, but she'd already hung up.
I arrived home, miserable, tired and full of shame.
"Good party?" mum asked as soon as I was through the door. I groaned a little. She sniggered, "Must have been."
Of course she knew I'd been drinking. She doesn't mind, she knows it's only an occasional thing. She didn't, however, know I stayed at Mark's. No one knows about that, except for Alice. And she makes her opinion very clear.
"I'm going to bed for a bit," I said with as big a smile as I could manage.
I got a text as I reached the top of the stairs. Mark.
We still cool?
I sighed. I used to expect more from him; I wanted him to want me, and miss me when I wasn't there, tell me he loves me . Every text he sent me I opened excitedly, tricking myself into beliving he felt the same way about me as I did about him. I was young and naive, but now I knew better.
Yeah we're cool. See you around.
I pressed send, I flopped onto my bed, curled up, and fell asleep.

Dwhales? In Winchester, Virginia?!

Shortly following that, after claiming that I definitely was NOT going to have my face painted, I found myself with three sticky hands painting my face at the same time... and my arms... and my back.

Don't Know What To Do?

- Alcohol and the Brain
- Alcohol and Tolerance
- Availability of Alcohol
- Predisposition to Addiction
Properties of Alcohol
Alcohol is one of the oldest drugs still in use today. Egyptian cultures brewed beer, and there is plentiful evidence that other ancient cultures like the Romans drank wine. And alcohol use isn't limited to just humans. Other animals also like to imbibe alcohol, and some monkey populations even resemble humans in the percentage of monkeys who drink heavily and the percentage that avoid alcohol altogether. Thus, there must be something about the properties of alcohol that has caused people for millennia, and other animals as well, to enjoy drinking it.
Alcohol and the Brain
Although it is considered a depressant, the initial effects of alcohol on the brain are to slightly increase energy. After someone has a few drinks, they generally feel happy, sometimes giddy, and talkative. They lose some of their inhibition, and feel more confident and secure.
This change in demeanor is due to the properties of alcohol and how they impact the brain. Alcohol acts to relax certain areas of the brain, hence it is called a depressant. However, initially the areas it relaxes are those that enforce strict control over other areas (such as those responsible for social inhibition). Overall this causes an increase in energy and confidence.
As one continues drinking, however, the sedation shifts to a more widespread effect. Several drinks after that initial euphoria, the brain begins to be sedated overall. This can lead to a relaxation of its ability to control things like speech, which causes slurring. It also inhibits your balance centers from being able to control how well you walk. In cases of overdose, your respiratory centers can be inhibited, leading to death.
Alcohol and Tolerance
One of the important properties of alcohol is its ability to create tolerance in the user. Someone who drinks alcohol repeatedly will need more and more alcohol to produce the effects they felt the first time they got drunk. This is due in part to your body reacting to the presence of alcohol by producing more enzymes to break it down. A greater number of enzymes causes alcohol to be broken down quickly when it enters the body, and causes you to need to drink more to get drunk.
Unfortunately, tolerance leads to higher levels of intake, which increases the risk for dependence to form. Alcohol dependence can occur after repeated administration and can manifest itself by causing withdrawal symptoms when one stops drinking. The withdrawal symptoms can range from uncomfortable (sweating, the "shakes", nausea) to life-threatening.
Availability of Alcohol
One of the problems with alcohol today is that, unlike some other drugs, it is widely available. Even those who are under the legal drinking age often don't find obtaining alcohol to be that difficult of a task. Because alcohol is so available, there are large numbers of people who are exposed to the drug each year. The properties of alcohol are such that a significant percentage of them will enjoy the experience of drinking, and want to do it again. A portion of them will eventually have problems quitting sometime in the future.
Predisposition to Addiction
Why some people become addicted to alcohol and some do not is a question that has yet to be answered. There is certainly a genetic component to alcohol addiction, as the malady does run in families. However, this doesn't explain the whole story, as a person needs some level of exposure to alcohol in order for their genes to be able to play a role.
Some believe that the predisposition to alcoholism has something to do with a risk-seeking personality. This has been supported by some research, and may indicate why adolescents are more inclined toward addiction than adults.
The properties of alcohol are such that drinking it tends to be a pleasurable experience for people the first time they do so. However, for some people, that first drink is the beginning of a road to addiction. Unfortunately, we can never know who is inclined to be an alcoholic before they take their first drink. Therefore, one must pay close attention to the warning signs of addiction when they begin using a drug like alcohol. If behavior begins to change and tolerance starts to develop, it may be better to get treatment before the problem evolves.

As long as the maximum speed supported by your ISP's internet connection is slower than your router's maximum speed an upgrade would not produce a faster internet connection. The difference is that the speed at which you could share files between networked computers increases dramatically. In addition, the new router may support new security features, offer greater range, etc. Thus, the benefits vary and would most likely be minimal in your case.
This is going to seem like an odd question, but ive been looking around the internet and havnt been able to find an answer.
I have an older router a D-link DI-624 with clock speeds around 44.4 Mbps as a max throughspeed. and i was looking at some of the newer routers available like the D-link DIR-655 with speeds around 112.56 Mbps, and thought that sounds great for the home as I have 2 laptops and the desktop on the router.
What has my wondering is that my internet speed witch is pretty good at 4.9 Mpbs faster then some T1 lines wouldnt even come close to using the speed that my current router can handle. and even the insane T3 lines only get up to at most 16Mbps.
So my question is, is the extra speed the routers have wasted? and if so why bother trying to upgrade the routers?

Sony studio chiefs aim to reassure employees after damaging hack
By Dana Feldman
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Executives at Sony Corp's Hollywood movie studio sought to reassure employees on Monday that the studio would recover from a massive cyber attack that exposed internal emails and sensitive employee data.
Michael Lynton, CEO and Chairman of Sony Pictures Entertainment, and Co-Chairman Amy Pascal addressed staff at two separate meetings in a packed sound stage on the company's lot in Culver City, California, according to an employee who attended one of the sessions.
Lynton told employees they should not worry about the studio's future, a Sony spokeswoman said. He also praised staff for their work to keep productions running after the attack, the spokeswoman said. Both Lynton and Pascal received applause, said the employee at one of the meetings.
Unidentified hackers attacked Sony's computer network last month and have released internal documents they claim were stolen from the company.
Disclosures from the documents have caused turmoil at the studio, a unit of Japan's Sony Corp, and shed light on internal discussions key to the company's future. For instance, the documents include employee salaries and financial information, marketing plans and contracts with business partners.
In addition, the documents included an exchange in which Pascal joked about President Obama's race. After media outlets reported that information, Pascal issued a public apology for "insensitive and inappropriate" emails.
Reuters has not been able to verify the authenticity of the documents.
At one of Monday's meetings with staff, Pascal was "near tears" and apologized again for her comments, according to the employee in attendance. Staff members applauded and offered her support, and a few hugged her, the employee said. Continued...

It is a happy day for public libraries across the city! Another nerve-wracking round of budget negotiations has come to a close, with the city of New York restoring record amounts of funding to the New York Public Library, Queens Public Library, and our very own Brooklyn Public Library. After months of tireless advocacy efforts by library staff and supporters, this celebratory moment seems an opportune time to put our feet up, munch on some popcorn, and think back on the good work we do here. Roll the clip!
This film, Who Grows in Brooklyn, is part of the Brooklyn Collection's 16mm film collection, which was in recent years transferred to DVD format for preservation. All the films are available for viewing in the Brooklyn Collection, and, not surprisingly, cover a range of topics relating to our borough, from a tutorial on the quintessential Brooklyn bagel to a neighborhood's homage to one of its most famous residents, Barbra Streisand.
But enough about the film collection -- what I really want to talk about today is the rolling library that trolls the streets looking for ravenous readers -- the bookmobile! Brooklyn Public Library started offering bookmobile service in 1951, with its "Library-On-Wheels". This souped-up truck was outfitted with the barebones accoutrements of a regular branch library -- shelves, books, a circulation desk, librarians, clerks -- along with a new addition to the staff: a driver. An article in the September, 1957 issue American Library Association's newsletter ALA Bulletin, "Reaching Out: bookmobile service in Brooklyn", provides an in-depth breakdown of the specifications of Brooklyn's mobile library: "The bookmobile itself is 27 feet long, 8 feet wide, and weighs 21,500 pounds. The shelves can conveniently carry 2,500 books."
An early 1950s shot of the first Brooklyn Public Library bookmobile. Due to high demand, a second bus was put into service in 1952.
The bookmobiles' mission was to reach those Brooklynites who lived beyond a half-mile radius of any of the 55 regular branch libraries, and neighborhoods with populations below 50,000. As detailed in the ALA Bulletin article, the bookmobile stopped at two types of locations -- community hubs and schools. A typical day saw the bookmobile visiting one to three locations for a few hours at a time, with each stop scheduled to maximize the number of visitors the bookmobile could host. The bus would visit schools during the mornings, scheduling periods for each teacher to bring in students, and stop outside housing projects or shopping centers in the afternoon and evening to give workers and families a chance to drop off and pick up books.
In the days before the Coney Island library branch, kindergartners from P.S. 188 relied on weekly visits from the bookmobile. The library-on-wheels made this stop at the Gravesend Houses every Tuesday from 10:00 to 11:50 during the 1950s.
A Brooklyn Daily Eagle article from October 18, 1953, reported that Brooklyn's bookmobiles lent out 252,323 books and traversed 6,600 miles of Brooklyn streets in 1952. The ALA Bulletin article states that at a busy stop, the average book circulation is 238 books per hour -- that's four books a minute, from one circulation desk. A Brookyn Public Library News Bulletin article from that same period is less precise, but perhaps more compelling, "Books are more popular than pretzels, traveling carousels and ice cream with the youngsters of Glenwood, one of fifteen stops on the Brooklyn Public Library Library-On-Wheels schedules." The list of areas served by the bookmobiles indicates how much the borough has changed in the past 60 years, as many neighborhood names have since fallen off the map: "March, Breukelen, Kingsboro, Gravesend, Coney Island, Homecrest, Sea View, Marlboro, Beach Haven, Bay View."
More compelling than the library's self-promoting prose, I think, are these images from our photograph collection, which show the bookmobiles as a sort of pop-up town square -- wherever the buses stop, neighbors and families gather, supporting the idea that libraries play a vital role as centers for community.
One of the bookmobile driver's duties was crowd control. According to Frankie Alfano, above, "Driving a cab was never like this!"
Even horses are welcome at the Library-on-Wheels!
Of course, some of my favorite images are those of Brooklyn's "youngsters" making use of the bookmobile. In 1957, children's circulation accounted for 70 percent of the total in Brooklyn's bookmobiles.
Conscientious patrons, right and below, prepare their books to be returned to the bookmobile librarian.
As the photo's caption states, a "book discussion in the noonday rush."
Curbside story hour at Ave. U and E 14th St.
Lost in the stacks.
Bookmobile service continued through the 1960s and 1970s, albeit in varying forms. In 1967 the service was outsourced, somewhat, to a company called the Bookmobile Service Trust, which worked in cooperation with the Brooklyn Public Library but was not staffed by library personnel. According to a July 6, 1967 article in the New York Times, this new, "canary-yellow" truck served the borough in troubled times, making stops in "deprived areas where people have often been fearful because of neighborhood tensions to leave their immediate neighborhoods to visit libraries." That contract, which provided three bookmobiles for Bedford-Stuyvesant, Brownsville, and East New York, ran out in 1971, when the city unexpectedly refused to renew the deal. After that, the Brooklyn Public Library fully reshouldered the task of bringing books to underserved populations. This period also benefitted from the blue-and-white Sidewalk Service vans, which operated much the same as the bookmobiles, albeit on a smaller scale.
The Sidewalk Service van makes an appearance at Bay Ridge's Ragamuffin Parade, 1968.
The Brooklyn Public Library continues to offer bookmobile service to this day. New trucks have been purchased periodically as older models are put to well-deserved pasture. A Kidsmobile was introduced to the fleet in 2000 in an effort to link libraries and schools in closer partnership, and to provide library service at parks in the summertime. In spring 2009, the library unveiled four brand new bookmobiles, which included the Bibliobus, New York City's very first Spanish-language traveling library. Institutions and organizations throughout the borough can request to have any of Brooklyn's bookmobiles visit their location. Carrying on a sixty-year tradition at the Brooklyn Public Library, these 29-foot mobile libraries continue to provide invaluable service to the people of Brooklyn and thanks to the budget restoration, we can keep them rolling all year long.
I attended Sts. Peter & Paul School on Berry Street in Williamsburg Brooklyn from September, 1948 until June, 1956 and remember the bookmobile visiting our school.

The sight of a Windows Mobile logo attached to a device is often the harbinger of frustration and disappointment, if not outright doom. In the case of Blue&Me and Fiat's feisty 500, that remains true to a certain extent. There's plenty of room for improvement in areas like support for mobile phone handsets and iPods, for example.
But it's not the whole story. eco:Drive in particular is a rather delightful little application that is both fun and adds real value. And with Windows Mobile providing the platform, fixing faults and adding functionality over time could become routine.
One obvious aspect missing from all this, of course, is a GPS navigation system. In fact, Fiat does offer an optional sat-nav unit that plugs fairly neatly into a slot on top of the 500's dash. Physically, it's much like an aftermarket unit. However, it integrates wirelessly with the car's Blue&Me system via Bluetooth and therefore behaves more like a built-in system, muting music when directions are relayed and all that jazz. Unfortunately, it was not included with our test vehicle.
It's also worth noting that Blue&Me is not unique. Ford, to take one obvious example, has developed a platform with a very similar on-paper feature set known as Sync. It's also based on Windows Mobile and available as an option on many of the latest Fords from the new Ka hatchback upwards. With any luck, we'll bring you our impressions of Sync in the coming months.
Our broad brush conclusion, therefore, is that the basic approach and feature set Fiat has chosen for Blue&Me is worthy of a firm thumbs up. A few niggles notwithstanding, it's a thoroughly contemporary system that eschews chintzy visual gimmickry in favour of using tried and tested USB, Bluetooth and Windows Mobile technology to provide real utility and upgradeability. We'll certainly be watching with interest as Fiat develops and improves Blue&Me.
About time we see some car tech here!
TR is shaping up to be even better than before!
i thought it was a printer review >.>
awesome work guy's keep it up
I am not sure if I am ready for a move to Ecoville just yet, but I certainly think the car tech channel is a good idea for TR.
Is there room for a spec table in these reviews?
P.S. @ Ilovethemonkeyhead, I love you too x
Great read! This sort of info is usually so hard to find without going to see a car itself!!
Enunciation, not diction.
That mean, he speaks the truth: amended, thanks.
Hmm I've a Grande Punto with this system installed but I never managed to get it to read txts with my N95 :P
I can verify that it does allow you to push contacts with the KC910 Renoir so presumabley other newer LG's will work as well. Although it seems sound quality varies between phones, I got better results with sound quality with my N95 then the Renoir.
It seems trying to get Eco:Drive working on the older Blue & Me's can be problematic, as it may record the data but refuse to dump it to a stick, as that what mine is doing (just going to get Fiat to sort next time I visit).
It's a pretty little car at a nice price. If the UK .gov decided to go with the old banger trade-in option some other countries have done to boost the car market I may be interested. However the old Fiat reliability still weighs on the mind... hmm...
I've done 12000 in 12 months in my 1.3 Mjet Sport and have loved every single one of them.
The 1.3 (1248cc actually) diesel engine is an absolute doll and rewards smooth driving with real-world MPG figures of around 55MPG. Figures arrived at by the ancient method of recording distance travelled between tank fills.
A number of the Blue & Me issues have revolved around flaky Bluetooth implementations in the phones, indeed my iPhone 3G only became usable with the v2.2 firmware.
The basic (but excellent) audio system is made by Blaupunkt and better encoded MP3's sound suitably better through the system (I use 320kbit on an 8gb USB stick). SHould you require it there is a factory fit Hi-Fi option available made by Interscope.
Final tech bit and very 500-ish is the range quoted after I've just filled the tank. It comes up as.......yes, you've guessed it, 500 miles. Which is in line with what the electronic comsumption thinks I get in MPG - this is quite a bit higher then what I do get though.
Does the Sedici have Blue&Me too, does anyone know? Their flashy website is a nightmare to use.
@ MarioM
no but may I suggest, if your looking at the Sedici, you look at the Suzuki SX4 which is exactly the same car but can be considerably cheeper depending the spec your looking for

If I tried too hard to understand it, I might miss the view.
From a hand-drawn sign taped to my daughter's bedroom door.
Aquatic Center
of what I like and love
And like that, school's out.
Time packs up its fractional interest,
its dewey decimals
and skips out of this slow motion town.
The hair, the shoes, the smudgy silver lunchkit are
suddenly so
last year.
The endless days might seem to stretch
but not one
not even one
will keep its shape.
Who can refuse to enjoy the view?
When I was a child
I was quite wild.
I banged my head on a piece of metal.
Years later I got stinging nettle.
I won a huge award.
Our dog had surgery that we could hardly afford.
Another thing my dog showed me.
Just the idea of it had me pacing anxiously. But there it was in black and white:
Molly should be STRICTLY CONFINED for the next 2 months in an airline kennel, crate or equivalent.
All my doubt and consternation rammed up against this barrier. Say what? A dog? A big dog? A big running, jumping, happy-go-lucky dog? Behind bars? For how long? Say what?
Truth is, just the idea of having a dog – a healthy, ambulatory dog – had seemed confining enough to me. And now the walls were squeezed to an inconceivably narrow enclosure.
We lugged the crate into the house. It loomed over the room. Black, menacing, punitive. Her prison. Our prison.
Molly walked inside the pen. She walked inside and laid down. She laid down and relaxed. She fell asleep. She snored her doggy dreams. When she got better, we began leaving the door unlatched. She ambled in by herself, undisturbed by what you or I might judge as the cruel separation of inside and outside.
She has never been anything but completely unconfined in her confinement, because she has no idea of confinement.
Me? I have been thrashing my head against these bars all my life.
Last week we shared the disappointing news with Georgia. "It doesn't look like we are going to have the first girl president this time." Then, moving swiftly to pre-empt a pout, we delivered the good news. "This means you could be the first girl president yourself!" She busied herself for a bit, then presented her first executive order:
No gasoline at all times
No violation on people's proporty without pormishon
No war
No littering enywhere
No kids in front seat under 10 inless emergencey
No bombs
Every victum goes to the hospital as soon as possible
All violaters go to jail for 3 months
No one eats American cheese
L'enfant terrible! Elle est un francophile.
Happy Camembert, Everyone.
In the spirit of daring girls and the daring women who love them:
"Mom, good news!"
"I've just about learned how to arm fart."
As I write this the helicopters growl overhead, the sun glows orange through an ochre haze and petals of white ash drift in a funereal descent. 'Tis the season.
It's not supposed to be fire season but we have one nonetheless, a little fire that exploded into a big and menacing one overnight on the brushy mountains behind our home. We are still here and safe, one block outside the evacuation line.
I already had the title of this post in my head two days ago and it applies even more now. I've written about Southern California wildfires before. They are an intermittent fact here in desert paradise. You might wonder how we can handle it. The answer is we just do what needs to be done when it needs to be done. Today we wait and trust and offer a hand to those who live one block higher up the hill.
The fact is, no matter which state we reside in we all live in the pit of the flame, confronted time and again by conditions that seem too hot to handle. Sometimes the most we can do is offer an oven mitt, a sopping towel, a tall cool one, or a breather. Whatever we do is the best we can do. We all handle what we think we can't.
And in that spirit I offer for your interest and consideration several quenchers.
Those of you who oohed over my daughter's tortured art may be ignited by her one-of-kind potholders now up for bid at the Bloggers for Jeni auction. She made four to contribute to this amazing endeavor, all to raise funds for Jeni Ballantyne and her son Jack. The bidding on these is still quite low, and if you knew what I had to pay the wee miss in order to secure rights to her work, you would appreciate the bargain. Please bid high and often because these little squares are guaranteed to get you out of a hot spot. I don't know how, but that Georgia can weave magic.
I'm offering my own kind of comfort on the auction, and it is already high priced enough. When the chance came to contribute to the sale, I couldn't think of anything to give other than myself, and I routinely give that away for free, as you'll see below. But that wouldn't net any money for the cause, so we figured out how to give away nothing for something. The Comfy Day I'm offering is everything and more I can do for a mom (or dad) who thinks she's in it alone, without a clue, a break, an extra pair of hands, a shoulder to cry on or a day off. I wish I could give it straight to Jeni but I think she'll be just as soothed knowing that someone else is getting a lift. Think of it as a Mommy 9-1-1, suitable for a new mom, a multiple mom, or a group of moms, a shower gift, or a rescue for your own combustible self. If it doesn't sell, I've already committed to contribute the value of my plane ticket to the auction fund so Jeni and Jack will get the most I can give no matter what.
That's how we handle the heat, giving the most comfort we can give, knowing that there's always someone farther inside the evacuation line.
Last week's giveaway really caught fire and inspired a burst of wild-eyed generosity:
The winners of the English version of Momma Zen are nyjlm, Almighty Mama, Patricia, Amy and Shama-Lama Mama.
I'm sending the German version to all five people who asked, because what else am I going to do with a box of books in German? (Especially when I evacuate!)
Winners, please contact me via email on my profile page and leave me signing and shipping instructions. Soon the air will clear, the breeze will cool, and I'll be winging your relief packages in a flash.
A little while ago my daughter directed me to one of her favorite on- and offline passions.
Mommy, come see.
A writing contest.
I think you could win because you're a really good writer.
It seems to me that I don't hear that very often from a real live person, or a least not often enough.
Still, I let it slide a bit, because although my daughter is certainly wonderful, she's not that kind of wonderful, not that kind of competitor, not that kind of hero, prodigy or star. And neither am I.
When the time came to write the essay, I had to keep it real.
When the time came to mention the honors, they told us she was quite real enough.
I hope you'll read all about it. Georgia was happy enough with the essay, and her prize, but happier still with the cardboard kingdom it inspired one Sunday in the garage.
That's my real girl. And this is the real-life lesson she keeps giving me: believe in yourself and each other just the way you are.
Dear Parent,
We are starting a new unit in our reading series and as a part of this unit, your child will be writing a biography of a famous person. It can be any famous person, living or dead, from the United States or anywhere else. I ask only that they not choose Dr. Martin Luther King, George Washington or Abraham Lincoln, since we have already studied and written about them. I ask that you help your child to do the research as part of their homework during these next two weeks. Many biographies for children are written in such a way that the information is hard for them to find. Your child will need your help! Thank you.
Ms. R.
2nd Grade
Mommy, I think I'll write about C.S. Lewis.
Pause for awe and self-congratulation.
No, I decided on Shirley Temple.
With acknowledgment to Eden Steinberg, editor.
This is a story about a girl who lived in a museum. Once upon a time, there was a girl named Opal. She decided she was going to run away. But where? Then she knew where she was going. To the Natural History Museum. Then she packed her bags and left for the Metro train. So she got on and read. Then she got off and went into the Museum.
Last Thursday my daughter took a field trip with her second-grade class to the Natural History Museum. She asked if she could take a notebook with her to write down what she saw. Lately she has been stretching her character a bit, trying on the props of an older girl, an older girl who might write in notebooks while standing in a museum. I said of course. I always give way when I see her stepping into a new and slightly oversized part.
The night after the field trip I snuck a peek into her composition book and saw that she had written the story above. You might be more startled than I was. I recognized the story as that from a book she'd recently read, and the name of the character as that in another. Those two stories now live in her story. They also live in this story of Georgia writing a story about going to the Natural History Museum while going to the Natural History Museum.
Whether we realize it or not, we make every story we ever hear our own. In that way, stories never end.
Thus was made clear the second ingredient in my personal program to cultivate childhood creativity.
Ingredient Number 2: A Story
Some stories come in books, that's true. Some come at bedtime. Some come to second-graders riding in school buses. But stories are not always stories. Sometimes they are paintings or photographs. Sometimes they are songs or poems. Sometimes they are beads on a string. Stories begin with just anything.
Stories beget stories as life begets life.
Our children are more sagely aware than we are that life is a story. Best not to take the story so seriously, because nothing we make up is as true as the original. Besides, we can always start over again.
I'm making up a story about creativity this week. Here's what got me started.
The other weekend my daughter implored my husband to help "her" build a trundle dollbed for her "sisters". She was about to take possession of yet another doll, a doll she didn't need and had nowhere to put but that "she" had duly earned. More about that later.
My husband, being the creative type that he is, "helped" her draw up plans and set up shop in the garage. When I came in a few hours later, Georgia was "working" on the construction from behind the walls of a corrugated "house" loosely assembled with the 24 empty cookie cases we have laying around. Less about that later. Mounds of sawdust had been swept into a landscape. She'd laid a "carpet" of rag towels and discarded sheets, and she was curled up in her cozy make-believe, casually supervising the ongoing carpentry. And she wouldn't come out. All day, she wouldn't come out. She was in bliss. And I thought to myself,
Oh my, I have made this childhood thing far more complicated than it ever needed to be.
Thus I was inspired to offer the first ingredient in my personal program to cultivate childhood creativity:
Ingredient Number 1: Paper
One of the things I feel so self-satisfied about is the investment I've made in drawing pads for Georgia over the years. (Target should feel good about that too, but the last time I checked, they weren't yet satisfied with the sum total of my purchases.) A surviving remnant of my daughter's preschool days is the crate of writing and drawing supplies that resides by our dining room table. It ends up collecting a lot more than writing supplies, but I cull it at least once a year and feel self-satisfied about that too. Here are kept the rubber stamps, stickers and pens, the paper and glue sticks, the maze and puzzle books, the crayons and colored pencils we still use every day, and a veritable landfill of Happy Meal toys.
Georgia is a terrific reader and writer, as I'm annoyingly quick to boast, and I like to think that I contributed cleverly to her early literacy.
But now I see that a piece of paper – the fundamental building block of my personal program of creativity – doesn't have to be a piece of paper. It can be a box. Or a rock. Or an old towel or sheet. It can be sawdust. It can be string. It can be just anything.
Just anything is the one thing that I consistently withheld from my daughter in her formative years. I never wanted her to use just anything, and I seldom allow it still.
Let's say I'm a creative work in progress.
I'm making a mound of sawdust out of creativity this week. Here's what got me started.
Mommy, last week in class we were supposed to give each other compliments, and do you know Tom, the boy with the dark hair?
He told me I was short.
What did you say?
I told him, "That's not a compliment! That's a threat and an insult!"
Spoken with the force of nature that topples a wobbly head and rules a steadfast heart.
The girl will be OK.
I've been doing a little bit more running lately, because a little bit more than nothing is a quite a little bit more. The reason for all of it will roll around soon enough. My friends on the road thought I needed a touch of optimism to shade me from the harsh realities.
This morning I put on my new hat and my daughter saw it for the first time.
"Oh," she said, accustomed to a world encapsulated in logos, "you must have gotten that at the Life is Good store."
Yes, honey, I did. I got a lifetime supply at the Life is Good store. Let's see how long it lasts me this time.
