Kylie & Kendall Jenner Help Launch The Hello Kitty x Forever 21 Collection
What's up, pussycats? Whoa!
Kyle and Kendall Jenner got feisty in some pretty racy outfits for the launch of the Hello Kitty collection at the Forever 21 store in Los Angeles late last week. Clad in short shorts, sheer tops, and high heels, the teenage stars of Keeping Up with the Kardashians, who are 14 and 16 respectively, looked gorgeous but well beyond their years as they modeled looks from the purr-fect collection.
Already a seasoned model with Wilhelmina, Kendall is the face of Australian swimwear line White Sands and both siblings have worked prom-ready evening wear for Sherri Hill. But in head-to-toe Hello Kitty, Kim's little sisters have never looked more adorable. As hosts, the girls worked their pink bows and blunt bangs (we smell a faux clip-in) as they changed several times to show off their cute kitty litter.
Check out Kendall and Kylie in their full Hello Kitty glory below and, if you like what you see, scoop it up here. But, act fast! With the entire collection retailing for a very thrifty $18-$23 and accessories selling for only $3-$18, we don't expect supplies to last too long.

Product Comments: I was happy with this product and the price. The one dollar online proof was definitely worth it to determine good font sizes.
Was this review helpful?
Product Comments: This is a good product that matches its invitations flawlessly. However, be aware that the wording/font size as it appears on the screen is NOT how it will look on the actual card. It is WELL worth the $1 extra to order the online proof which you can print and see how it will come out on the actual card and then make adjustments if necessary.

Western Force's Hugh McMeniman suspended for kneeing Ben Lucas, will miss must-win clash with Brumbies
The Western Force will be without their Wallabies back rower Hugh McMeniman for this weekend's vital Super Rugby match with the Brumbies after he was suspended by the SANZAR judiciary on Monday.
McMeniman pleaded guilty to a striking charge arising from a first-half incident in last Saturday's game against the Queensland Reds in Perth.
The video footage showed he dropped his knee into Reds fly half Ben Lucas.
Although Lucas suffered no serious injury McMeniman's actions were deemed as a deliberate use of the knee and a one-week suspension was imposed.
The Brumbies are clinging to the sixth and last playoff position but face a do-or-die showdown with the seventh-placed Force in Canberra to decide which team make the finals.
Frisby to miss Reds' final game with broken jaw
Queensland half-back Nick Frisby will miss the Reds' final match of the Super Rugby season against the Waratahs after he suffered a broken jaw in the loss to the Force.
Frisby will be out for six weeks after copping a knock to the jaw early in the second half of Saturday's game.
Initial hopes were that he would be able to take the field this weekend, but scans late on Monday revealed the fracture, which will require surgery.
Reds head coach Richard Graham said: "It is disappointing to lose Pickle (Nick Frisby). He has played some good rugby for us recently and it would have been beneficial to continue his partnership with Benny Lucas this weekend."
Frisby's injury adds to a long list of squad members currently unavailable for selection for the Reds; including Quade Cooper (shoulder/hip), Blake Enever (bicep), Anthony Fainga'a (calf), Chris Feauai-Sautia (shoulder), Will Genia (ankle), Liam Gill (Australian Sevens duties), Eddie Quirk (knee), Dom Shipperley (ankle) and Aidan Toua (pectoral).

Tactical Scouters: Combat troops, together with any service troops required for their direct support, who are organized under one commander to operate as a unit and engage the enemy in combat.In the Scouting world this would translate to: Scouters who together and who are trained for their position within their Scout Units are organized under guiding principle to help build character, leadership and to offer a quality WOSM based program to the youth they serve before, during and after each Scout Event and Meeting.
So, why this title and posting? Over the past couple of days I have been on a Training kick within Scouting and also at work. I also got involved in a small discussion on the Scouts Canada Facebook page. They let me in there and I generally lurk about, eh. We all follow Baden-Powell and like to wear Uniforms, use Dutch Ovens, like bacon a lot and sing really badly. Oh, and then remember it's for the Boys (or Youth in SA's case)! But one thing we have in common is training and why we should take it and why we should not be required to take it.
I am think that training should be taken. Yes, I have taken BAD training that I really have never used. But, that was on the clock, so I did get something out of it! Yes, I have sat through boring Scout training too. Ugh.
So, I got excited as only a Trainer would be when the LDS came out with an updated document on LDS and Scouting. This page also talks a lot about how Training is supposed to happen within the LDS. Ok, I am not LDS and I know very little about it. I know as much about it as I do being Jewish, Catholic or Hindu.
Now, what I really like is how the LDS Church looks towards training. Being the Charter Org, this document has it right. Now, each position is a Calling within the LDS. It's an honor to be Called for a position. The LDS even go so far to say, they will pay for any training and that Roundtable is a Good Thing! There is even a LDS Cubscout Den Leader PDF Training off the Scouting.org site.
So why all the excitement about LDS? I am not LDS…. Well, here is why. The LDS have put Scouting as part of their mission to help their Youth. Working with their program and the BSA's there is good documentation and processes to help them offer a quality program. As District Training Chair, I need to know when there is a difference so I can give them the correct information.
Which in the end will help me offer a better program to the Youth I serve.
Ok, so you might feel like, what's up with the Tactical part of the title of this posting. As Trainer's we are charged with providing good information to the Scouter's who will guide the Youth. We support them with quality training, quality answers & information for what is needed. Every Scouter is a Trainer to the Youth. So, it is incumbant of each Scouter to Be Prepared for the meetings, outings and events that we go to or put on.
We are all in this together. We are all Trained Tactical Scouters in support of each other for the Youth.
Get Trained.

Lake Forest Slab Leak Repair
Leaks in amongst the water lines running below the concrete floor of the homes are known as slab leak. In past few months we have received many Lake Forest slab leak complaints. It occurs due to several reasons that include the reaction between water and therefore the copper pipe, faulty installation practices, an excessive amount of soldering flux, pipe's contact with concrete, rocks etc. Here are some symptoms of block/slab leak that assure that your pipes are broken and you need slab leak repair services.
Noise of running water from slab or walls once all water faucets are turned off
A hot spot on a specific space on the ground indicates the leak within the hot water pipeline
If you observe unsymmetrical wet patterns on the wall of your house, it may direct towards major outpouring
Cracks in walls and floors can even caused by slab/block leaks
Occurrence of moisture beneath the carpets
If you are not using abundant water however your water bill is high this additionally indicates a water leak from one amongst the pipes.
If you face any of the above mentioned symptoms, simply call Ameri-Cal Repipe and Plumbing. Why select us over others?
We are a team of skilled specialists that are dedicated to produce best plumbing service to the individuals. We have a tendency to use our expertise in every new project. Like other corporations, we don't simply breakdown slab from random areas and in order to check the leaks. Amateur companies dismantle the property of the client in search of leaks. We've got updated instrumentation in our store through which we discover actual location of the leak without wasting any time and damaging customer's property. Once the leak is detected within the block, our leak repair skilled personnel can provide relevant repair choices.
Spot repairing: In this methodology, slab is spread out from the leak spot and repaired. This is capital effective, time saving.
Repiping: The whole pipeline is replaced with new one. It takes one to two days to switch total pipeline. This is done if the plumbing is extremely old and has history of many leaks.
In-place pipe coating: Epoxy pipe coating is applied on the inner side of the pipe to seal all leaks. Corrosion is fully treated by this methodology.

The hot-crazy woman matrix
You know what almost never gets old? Jokes about hot, crazy women. No, it's true. Because while the rest of us have adhered to the linear laws of time and physics and moved forward into the 21st century, those jokes are still enjoying an extended adolescence back in the way-back of 1975. To get an idea of what it looks like there (I'm imagining a sort of grainy, Hipstomatic filter, a lot of terry towelling shorts and the vague-yet-persistent aroma of VB) we might ask YouTube comedian and social anthropologist, Dana McLendon.
McLendon recently spent actual time and energy coming up with 'The Universal Hot Crazy Matrix: A Man's Guide to Women'. He drew a graph for it and everything. I didn't really get it, but that might just be the limitations of my woman-brain and its inability to process the complicated wit of sexist japery. So I asked a man to explain it to me, and he told me that McLendon was riffing on the correlation between a woman's 'hotness' and her level of crazy.
"But I don't understand?" I said to my authoritative male friend, with what I hoped was a simplistic coquettishness befitting of my gender.
"That's because you're not hot," he told me, authoritatively, patting me on the shoulder with the edge of his fingertips.
"True," I agreed, before cutting his head off, because I was still crazy.
So I watched McLendon's video again. Here it is.
And here are some of the lessons I learned:
1. All women are at least a little bit crazy
Over at the Woman Factory, units are programmed to be at least a 4 on the 1-10 scale of crazy. The real tragedy is that when we get sent to the shops for purchasing, there's no indicator of which personality we've been programmed with. How do you know if you're getting a manageable 4 or even a 5 instead of one of those barking mad 7 or 8 models? You don't.
This is just one of the many examples of how society discriminates against men. Maybe even the worst example.
2. Men have strict standards
Women who fall between 0-5 on the hot measurement of the scale fall in the 'No Go Zone'. According to the serial killer presenting the video, "You do not hang around, date and marry women who are not at least, in our mind, a 5."
Because you have to put a value on yourself, fellas - and I think we can all agree that if you're the kind of person who makes sexist graphs for companies that teach people how to shoot guns, then you deserve if not the very best, then at least 50% of it. It's an equality worth fighting for.
3. Holiday in the fun zone
On McLendon's incredibly scientific graph, women who fall somewhere between a 5 and an 8 on the hot scale are available for fun times provided they don't also broach the separating line over into the crazy red zone. Now, you'll notice that eights can get away with being slightly crazier than fives. This is just, like, the basic rules of feminism.
The problem is, you don't want to settle down with those mid rangers because what you actually want is to move towards something a little more permanent - preferably with a 9 or a 10. These are the kinds of women you'll introduce your friends and family to, sometimes even as your girlfriend and not just a homeless woman who lives outside your house. But here's the thing - if their craziness hovers somewhere between a 5 and a 7 - which is practically sane in woman terms - you might even want to make that crazy lady your wife.
So take your time and enjoy the fun zone, but don't spend all your quarters at the arcade.
4. Highway to the Danger Zone
There's a type of woman so crazy, so terrifying, that she needs to be avoided by men who keep pens in their top left pocket at all cost. That type of woman lives in the Danger Zone. Redheads, strippers, women named Tiffani - we're all super crazy. If you get mixed up with one of us, you're opening yourself up to all kinds of just like, drama and stuff. Cars being keyed, bunnies in pots, your tyres slashed...you might even wind up in jail.
You might be tempted, lord knows you'll be tempted. But is it worth it, just to see whether or not the rumours are true that firecrotches actually shoot flames from their nethers after coitus to permanently destroy their mate's junk? Besides, I only did that once and I missed anyway because women are lousy shots.
5. Dude looks like a lady!
Do you know what? In the parlance of internet speak, I can't even with this one. I just can't even. It was a terrible exercise in misogynist humour in the first place, and then McLendon - who actually has a girl's name, by the way - rutted it into even lower depths of offensiveness with his reference to 'trannies' and 'dudes dressed as women'.
McLendon seems to think there's nothing funnier than the kind of really obnoxious transphobia which leads to trans women being murdered for 'tricking' unsuspecting men into finding them attractive.
That mocking the mental health of women - both cis and trans - is so deeply original and hilarious that he should have every right to stand there and talk about which kinds of women deserve to be respected and which don't while he has a gun strapped to his belt, and then link it to Reddit: The Red Pill so all the deeply disturbed men who frequent that message board can wax lyrical about how goddamn accurate the whole thing is.
But look, that's probably just my crazy talking. I am a redhead after all and it's a science fact that we're unhinged.
Women, hey?! Can't live with them. Can't always get away with shooting them.

Auxiliary Service Switchboards
Read more...
Read more...
Tecop specialises in the design and construction of industrial electrical technologies: medium and low voltage switchboards, motor control centre switchboards, command and control switchboards, synoptic switchboards and standard ENEL switchboards. Specially customised production upon specific request: maximum precision in all designs, reliability and strong customer orientation.
Professional know-how deriving from extensive experience which began in 1987. In 1995, providing further confirmation of the quality of its products, Tecop applied for and obtained ISO 9001 certification from CSQ. The said certification is valid on an international level and obliges businesses to guarantee consistently high quality standards in order to meet the expectations of the market.
As a consequence of the ISO 9001 certification, Tecop was recognised by IQ NET, the international certification network composed of forty partners throughout the world committed to guaranteeing the highest possible quality standards in various fields of production.
Thanks to its strong customer orientation, the company creates products according to the specific needs of the client and follows the development of the design with an experienced team of designers and technicians who are always up-to-date with the latest market trends as well as innovations in electrical components and in the world of electrical engineering.
Furthermore, from a perspective of total quality, Tecop carries out all activities for the design, assembly and production of electrical switchboards at its manufacturing plant La Loggia (Torino), Italy.
The proven experience and professionalism of Tecop have allowed the company to expand both on a European level and further afield, satisfying the requirements of various contractors worldwide.
There is demand for Tecop's products in areas of electrical engineering comprising a range of applications, such as the iron and steel industry, wind power stations, thermoelectric energy plants, solar energy generation and the transport sector.
In order to maintain its position as market leader, Tecop continues to pursue the aim of satisfying its customers with cutting edge solutions. Such solutions are safe regarding both installation on the premises they are intended for and the operators who will be responsible for the maintenance of the equipment in question.
Tecop's products will also be able to provide high levels of performance over sustained periods of time. Such an achievement is obtained thanks to continuous analysis of market trends and the devising of appropriate marketing strategies, as well as the targeted training of technicians and designers.
All this is coupled with significant investment in research and development and a constant commitment to maintaining the highest possible quality standards. Within the vast range of products designed and manufactured by Tecop on site, with materials of the finest quality supplied by qualified partners in full respect of international regulations, the following in particular can be highlighted:
Tecop products are customisable according to the specific needs of the client and based on the performance required. All Tecop's electrical switchboards come with protection systems guarding against direct or indirect accidental contacts, which could cause serious injury to operators, and against equipment malfunction.
Specifically, the I.P. degree of protection (International Protection or Ingress Protection) is the code that indicates the safety of the electrical switchboards in the event of penetration by solid bodies or accidental contact with liquids.
The International Protection code of an electrical switchboard is marked by the initials I.P. and two numbers: the first number indicates safety in the event of penetration by a solid body; the second number indicates the equipment's degree of safety in the event that it comes into accidental contact with a liquid; additionally, in specific cases the code is followed by letters that indicate the level of safety provided by mechanical protection.
Another safety standard that Tecop electrical switchboards must adhere to is the degree of mechanical protection I.K., which indicates the solidity and the sturdiness of the workmanship which protects the entire switchboard against external mechanical impact, in accordance with regulations CEI EN 50102: 1996-05; CEI EN 60068-2-7-5; 1998-09.
The I.K. code is expressed by a progressive series of numbers from zero to ten that indicate the structure's degree of resistance. The maximum value of the I.K. code certifies safety and resilience against impacts of up to twenty Jaouls.
Medium voltage switchboards serve mainly to distribute voltage (such as in large industrial plants for example) and/or to transform voltage from medium to low and vice-versa.
Also in this case, Tecop's medium voltage electrical switchboards conform to all regulations regarding the safety of operators and to the product standards established by the client.
They also contribute to the protection of the environment and to the sustainable management of raw materials. The relevant regulation is CEI EN 62271-200, designed to follow as precisely as possible the growth and evolution of the sector in line with the latest technological developments.
Tecop produces proteted switchboards, metal clad switchboards (in a standard version or internal arc execution), insulated cabins for construction sites, medium line voltage switchboards and wye (y) generator centre.
Low voltage electrical switchboards in recent years have been subjected to intense regulatory activities in order to guarantee maximum safety as they are those that more regularly require maintenance and intervention on the part of operators. It is a rare event, but it is possible for low voltage electrical switchboards to develop a so-called electric arc, which may overheat the equipment, provoke harmful gases and damage extremely important components beyond repair.
To avoid overheating, three types of test can be carried out, all equally valid: the verification test, the verification assessment and the design regulations.
The range of Tecop low voltage electrical switchboards includes power centre switchboards, power factor correction switchboards with an electronic regulator for activating automatic mode, power factor correction switchboards with an electronic regulator for activating automatic mode with harmonic reactances of blockade / abatement, auxiliary service A.C. / D.C. switchboards with automatic switching, auxiliary energy switchboards with lead or nickel-cadmium single or double branch batteries.
Auxiliary electrical switchboards are intended for photovoltaic and wind power plants, AT electrical substations and hydroelectric and thermoelectric power stations, and they are designed to avoid overloads or voltage drops which could cause the malfunctioning of equipment or heavy disruption.
They are built to distribute low voltage in direct current or in alternating current. Auxiliary service switchboards are held in modular units that contain protection and control commands, placed in separate compartments to ensure the best efficiency in every working condition.
Tecop's range of auxiliary electrical switchboards features: auxiliary service A.C./D.C. switchboards for hydroelectric power stations, thermoelectric power stations, photovoltaic power plants, wind power plants and AT electrical substations stations.
Motor Control Centre switchboards (also called MCC) are built in order to protect and command low voltage electrical motors, present mainly in industrial plants. They also allow the duration of any blackouts to be reduced and make maintenance activities easier.
Motor Control Centre switchboards with extractable compartments allow the maintenance and repair of each individual unit without putting the other units constituting the switchboard out of service.
The operators' protection is guaranteed by a series of safety systems with mechanical interblocks aimed at preventing the wrong manoeuvres from being made. TECOP's Motor control centre switchboards are built to be installed anywhere, regardless of environmental conditions, because they are specifically based on the needs of the client and to ensure continuity of service.
Tecop also builds FM distribution switchboards, P.M.C.C. motor command switchboards with fixed cubicles and/or extractable compartments, motor command switchboards (Motor Control Centre) with fixed cubicles equipped with inverters, soft-starters and AC/DC convertors, motor command switchboards (Motor Control Centre) with extractable compartments and internal arc execution.
Command and control electrical switchboards are designed to monitor and control with specific and appropriate instruments the correct functioning of the electrical equipment and can be either relay logic or P.L.C. Relay logic switchboards are mainly intended for thermoelectric and hydroelectric power stations and they also have the function of galvanic separation along with the supervision system.
For plants where supervision systems are required on more than one level, programmable logic controllers (P.L.C) are able to fully perform such a function. Command and control switchboards for cogeneration units, protective measure switchboards for power stations and electrical substations, parallel switchboards for hydroelectric and thermoelectric power stations and command and control booths are all among the products manufactured by Tecop.
The Tecop range is completed by synoptic switchboards, with the function of providing an overall vision of the plant, and are produced in a mosaic form with modular tiles, complete with graphics and prints in various colours.
Produced according to client specifications, they provide an overall vision of the system to be monitored with reference to, for example, technological equipment, hydroelectric power stations, underground train stations, railway stations, etc.
Rigorous safety devices are applied on all TECOP command and control switchboards to ensure the safety of technicians in every situation; furthermore, the advanced technology with which they are designed and produced ensures great precision, reliability and the possibility to monitor complex and diversified industrial processes.
Tecop, in line with its recognised qualifications, produces: standard switchboards in accordance with ENEL regulations, Italy's largest distributor of electricity; rack frames for control panel protection, non-unified compartments and command and control switchboards for various applications.
Tecop: thirty years of experience serving energy.

1999 Dodge Grand Caravan Minivan - Consumer Review
Build Quality
Reliability Value
Build Quality
Reliability Value
3.8L Grand Caravan
By tschuman on
Vehicle1999 Dodge Grand Caravan SE 4dr Minivan
ReviewThe van has been a good driving vehicle
and handles much like a car. Earlier
Dodge vans we drove had squishy brakes
but this year's model was improved and
brakes well. The infinity sound system
sounds muddy, not high fidelity. Our
major complaint has been major
mehanical quality, in our case at 55000
mi, requiring a new engine despite
proper engine care. This alone might
not be a concern except for other
nagging problems: transmission control
module, engine ducting, engine mount
problems, water pump, idler pulley
replacement. Mileage has averaged 23
Hwy, 18-19 Cty
Best FeaturesBucket seating, dual sliding doors, engine performance (when running), dual air control
Worst FeaturesImproved reliability! Interior quality seems improved compared to earlier model American cars, but if major mechanical quality was sacrificed for an interior, then I suggest consumers might look elsewhere for a quality vehicle.

Beautiful dark navy dress highlighted by a stunning floral print in rose and gray. The detailing that finishes this gorgeous number off is the hemline trimmed in beautiful rose lace! Just doesn't get any better - super cute and flattering fit. This one runs a tad small so size up (we've adjusted size correlations).
Small - 3XLarge
Small 4-6; Medium, 8-10; Large 10-12; XLarge 12-14; XXLarge 14-16; XXXLarge 18
Bust - (measured laid flat across front armpit to armpit)
Small 18"; Medium 19"; Large 20"; XLarge 21"; XXLarge 22"; XXXLarge 23"
Length - measured shoulder to hem
Small 32"; Medium 33"; Large 34"; XLarge 35"; XXLarge - XXXLarge 36"
96% Polyester; 4% Spandex
*Please note: 1) measurements can vary slightly due to how tight it the garment stretched when measuring. We try to measure it across the front in a way that it would fit, but that could vary from the way you measure. The measurement is just another aid to help you in determining fit. 2) Exact colors may vary due to computer monitor resolutions, lighting and photography lenses.

First Day of School for the First Time
My three-year old. Started school.
Okay, there's no need for me to be dramatic about it. It's just nursery school. He'll go 4 times per week for 3 hours a day. And yet in the weeks leading up to his first day, I felt as anxious as a mom sending her kid off to college. Thinking about it, I see two reasons behind my nervousness.
First of all, I've been fretting about what school to send LK to since, well, before he was born. I went to the same school from kindergarten through 12th grade, and I loved it. My school was a small, warm community that had truly creative teachers who knew how to make students think. To this day, I feel the effects of this education, particularly with respect to my love of literature and writing.
In the French educational system, the emphasis is not on independent thought. Creativity is generally discouraged. And I have never, ever heard a French person say that he or she loved school. From what I understand, school is something to be endured. Teachers motivate through negative reinforcement; that is, they try to shame students into performing better. This ideology could not be further from my experience and it's nothing I want for my children. My husband, who attended a wonderful German-American school in Berlin, agrees.
We opted for a bilingual Montessori school in the hopes that the Montessori philosophy of "self-directed learning" will override the French cookie-cutter approach to learning. But still…I've heard stories of young children being called "null" (nothing) by their teachers after making a mistake and of kids that are stymied by the idea of formulating their own opinion in a school context. (This from friends with kids in the system and friends that have taught or tutored young French students). So, even though I have confidence in the Montessori philosophy, I remain slightly worried about Frenchiness creeping into LK's education. I'll go ballistic if anyone in a position of authority ever calls him 'null.' That's the first reason I was nervous about LK starting school.
The second reason I was nervous was because I didn't know what to wear on his first day.
Hey – don't laugh. These things are important in Paris. I learned that early on, when LK was just a tot and I took him to play in the sandbox without getting a pedicure first. That was humiliating. Let me tell you, French moms are not like American moms. I don't care how young your baby is, or how little sleep you've gotten: if you're in public, you better look good. There's no rolling out of bed, throwing on sweats and taking the kids to school with your hair all over the place. And you don't wear sneakers unless you're jogging (ha!) or they're Converse high-tops and you're in the Marais.* It just doesn't happen.
I changed my clothes three times on that first morning and got all panicky when I couldn't find a decent pair of shoes. By the time, I left the house (wearing make-up, dressed in a faux-African print dress, heeled strappy sandals, and a light brown cape), I felt ridiculously tarty. But when I got to school, it was clear I made the right choice. All of the parents dropping off their kids looked as if they had been invited to a late summer picnic whose dress code was "casual chic." Only nannies wore jeans – and since I am frequently mistaken for a nanny (definitely a subject for another post), I was glad that made myself stand out as a parent.
So, now that LK and I both have two days under our belt with this new school, we're both feeling pretty good about it. LK is happy. The teachers seem sweet and caring. The parents are friendly enough for being French.** And I have a good excuse to hit the stores for some chic Fall clothes.
*Case in point: On Friday, I took the kids to the playground at the Place des Vosges and observed that not one single mother perched on the edge of the sandpit was wearing sneakers. The mom next to me was wearing black patent leather pumps, another wore camel-colored suede boots and a mini-dress, and yet another wore pointy-toed hot-pink suede sling backs. No joke. Oh, and in case you're wondering, I was wearing scuffed black ballerina flats.
**This is not meant to be an insult to French people. Americans are far more open and friendly with strangers than the French. That's just the way it is. Only one mom introduced herself to me, and I startled another mother by introducing myself and asking about her child (this was at pick-up). But the general air was of friendliness.

Homeward Bound
1. Seedless grapes.
2. Inexpensive blueberries
3. Warm summer nights.
4. Knowing that I will be able to wear the little summer dresses and cute sandals that I've packed. (In Paris, summer weather is so capricious that one never knows)
5. Whole Foods
6. Not being terrified of driving in the city.
7. Seeing my kids with my family, in my city, in my country.
8. 4th of July fireworks
9. Chesapeake Bay Crabs/Crabcake sandwiches
10. U.S. shopping (the Soldes are kind of a joke in the face of a Macy's Spectacular Saturday Sale where half the store is 70% off)
11. The concept of customer service
13. The abundance of cheddar cheese
14. Life cereal
But I'll miss France, too. Apart from my husband (and the nanny), here's what I'll miss the most:
1. That I won't be able to tell who won the latest World Cup match just by listening to what language is being shouted in the streets.
2. Poker night.
3. Champagne.
4. Grocery shopping on foot (I hate lugging the kids in and out of the car everytime I need to go to the store.)
5. Umm.... I think it's been too long since my last visit home because I can't think of anything else I'll miss about Paris right now. I should probably do a post about "what I'm looking forward the most about coming back to Paris." I like Paris best after I've been away for awhile.
What do you look forward to when you go home?

The Sweetest Sorrow
Before you shout Whore! and click away from my pages, let me explain: I started dating women. Other moms. Think: MBW ISO BFF.
Here's how the mom-dating scene in Paris goes: You meet someone through an online expat Anglophone mother's forum. If you have enough in common online (usually that being children around the same age and living roughly in the same neighborhood), you agree to meet in real life. You describe yourselves in an email so that you'll recognize each other in whatever café or park we chose. And then you meet, filling awkward silences with polite chat about your pregnancies and/or kids if it was a bad date, or laughing hysterically about life in France, books you've read, your husbands, swollen ankles or whatever, if it was a good date.
Just like in the pre-marriage dating world, most dates were just OK. You liked the other person well enough, but you're pretty sure that you won't be spending the rest of your lives together. In the pre-marriage dating world, depending on your age, you might stop the relationship right there (like a 20-something), or you might go on a couple more dates to make sure that you're not missing something (a 30-something). When you're an expat, you find yourself a lot less choosy about friendships, and so as long as you got along reasonably well, chances are you'll have a couple more dates before the connection fizzles or you establish a comfortable, though not life-changing relationship.
And every now and then, you make a really great connection with someone. Your kids get along, your husbands like each other, and when you get together you can't stop blabbing. Slowly, she begins to feel a hole that is created by your expat existence. A family-shaped hole.
And then, what often happens is, she moves away.
I hate this part of being an expat: saying goodbye to dear friends – or people who were on their way to being dear friends, but now you'll never really know because although you have every intention of keeping in touch, you don't know how you will because she's moved somewhere in the world that you probably won't visit because you already have so many other dear friends and family scattered all over the world and you only have so much time and money to visit everybody.
Since moving to Paris, I've lost dear friends to South Africa, Montreal, Barcelona, California, Hong Kong, and Rhode Island. Just two days ago, I just lost a second pair of dear friends to Rhode Island – but happily, they moved to the same city as the other friends (with whom we've managed to remain close) so that boosts the chance that we'll visit there and won't just be "Christmas Card" friends. People who aren't expat say how lucky I am to have friends all over the world. But I don't feel lucky. I want my friends here with me.
There's not much that can be done about this dilemma, except to avoid short-timers and build friendships with locals. After suffering a string of losses just around the time of LK's first birthday, for a long time whenever I met someone new, one of my first questions was: "So, how long will you be here?" If the answer was less than two years, even we had everything in common apart from our parents, I lost interest. Buh-bye.
As the good-bye I said on Sunday was my first goodbye in a long time, I think I've been pretty successful in recent years in avoiding relationships with Paris short-timers. But I'm not sure if that's a good or bad thing. The friends that just left really enriched my life here in multiple ways, even though our friendship only solidified in the last 2 years. I would never regret our friendship even though it means that now, for a long while, I will continue to look for them in places that they will not be.
So, what's an expat to do? Keep going on dates, hoping to find The One and pray she doesn't leave me? Blow off relationships that could be great for the short-term but bittersweet in the long-term? Keep everyone at a distance? Or take friendship in whatever form it comes and resign myself to the inevitable sweet sorrow of saying goodbye?
What do you do?

Reason #432 that I'm grateful for my expat life
Anyway, last week a good friend did me the solid of marrying her boyfriend down in Basque Country, an absolutely gorgeous, green, hilly part of southwest France that shares a culture with northeast Spain. Driving down south with my kids sleeping (or vomiting or crying or whatever) in the backseat, I felt flooded with the excitement that road trips brings – and especially road trips in Europe bring.
When traveling by car in Europe, there's no need to stay at some skanky hotel/motel off the highway. Why should you, when for almost the same price you can stay in a castle!
I admit, I'm kind of a castle-whore. If there's ever an opportunity for me to bed down in one, I will. There's just something about those turrets…
The Chateau de Cherveux is a 15th century castle mid-way between Paris and Biarritz, near Niort. It was built by Robert de Cunningham, a Scot who had been a captain of an artillery squad for France during the Hundred Years war. Over the years the castle was besieged many times, and it is clear that it was not merely the kind of decorative chateau you find in the Loire Valley: this chateau was a fortress, complete with a moat, drawbridge, battlements, and arrow loop (those narrow windows from which arrows could be fired). The drawbridge is gone, but you can see the rest on a tour of the castle.
Like most people visiting a castle, I try my best to travel back in time while there. I place my hand on a stone wall or an original wooden door, trying to imagine the hand of some 15th century person resting on that exact spot. Climbing the staircases, my mind catches a glimpse of the dirty hem of some servant's robe as she carries a tray up to her master. I won't say that I force these images – it's easy to summon the past in such an old place. But my experience at the Chateau was somewhat different. Staying there was a bit like having the past recreated. It was as if we were travelers of yore, arriving at an inn mid-journey. We were hot, tired and dusty from the road, seeking only a filling meal and comfortable bed (and some water for the horses) so that we might continue our travels the next day.
Upon arriving, the Chateau owner greeted us warmly and showed us to our room, which was a large sage-green chamber with views of the castle's courtyard and grass-filled moat. I fell in love with the appointments of the room, including the two massive oak armoires, the wrought-iron canopy bed (sans canopy) and old-fashioned candle holder that would be perfect for wandering the castle's halls at night. Even the bathroom was charming – the tub was built under a high stone arch.
Like many B&B-type establishments in France, the Chateau offered a table d'hôte, which means that they serve their guests a homemade dinner at a communal table. Rather than trying to find a restaurant after a long drive with two small kids, we opted to eat at the Chateau. We were the only guests at the castle that night, so the four of us ate a deceptively simple dinner of goat-cheese quiche, roast chicken and boiled potatoes in a cozy high-ceilinged dining room. We poured our wine and water from pitchers into heavy glass goblets. For dessert, the Chateau owner brought us a bowl heaped with fresh strawberries. When we praised the excellence of her cooking (I saw her in the kitchen messing about with copper pots on an Aga), she told us that all the products were organic and from the Chateau's farm, except for the chicken which came from the neighboring farm. She also said when there were ten or more guests, her brother-in-law prepares medieval dinners with recipes from Jeanne Bourin's cookbook "Cuisine Medievale."
After dinner, we took our wine glasses into the small courtyard and watched the kids chase after a soccer ball as the setting sun turned the castle's walls to gold. And then, we went upstairs to bed. And even that bed was everything that it should have been. It was as if the Chateau owners had given up their own bed for us. It was that comfortable.
The next morning, the magic of the castle persisted and we had a lovely breakfast of crusty baguettes, sesame bread, croissants, fresh butter and homemade apricot-ginger jam. It was hard to leave. We made noises about moving in. The Chateau owner laughed as she peeled our fingers off of the castle's gate.
I have had the good fortune to stay in many wonderful hotels, B&Bs and even a few castles in my life, but thanks to the warmth, discretion and incomparable taste of the Chateau owners, this place will always stand out in my memory.
If you can, go there.

Manners, Shmanners
The French are trained at a very young age to eat just about everything with a knife and fork. While I believe that this is generally a good thing (do people even use knives in the U.S. anymore?), sometimes when I watch them struggling to eat some down-home finger-lickin' food with a knife and fork, I feel sorry for them.
Last New Year's Eve, I got a hankering for some crab legs (I grew up near a wharf) and so my husband and I bought some King Crab legs to ring in the New Year. The way I grew up eating them, you steam them hot, douse 'em with Old Bay seasoning, then crack them with either your hands or - if you're a lightweight – a nutcracker. Next, you swirl the crab meat around in some melted butter, pop it in your mouth and go: mmmmmm. It's not fancy eating. Butter dribbles down your chin. Your hands get sticky with crab juice and seasoning. The table is littered with shells. But who cares? As far as I'm concerned, the process of eating crab legs is just as soul-satisfying as the taste.
Anyway, we invited a French couple over to share in these goodies. When I plopped the platter of legs on the table, they looked slightly alarmed -- they had never eaten crab legs before -- but then tucked in bravely. While Dawg and I messily eschewed the nutcracker in favor of our hands, our friends quickly figured out how to use the nutcracker to crack the legs, used their knives to extract the meat, used their forks to dip the meat in the butter and then ate the meat tidily with their forks and knives. I kept having to repress a smile at this glaring cultural difference. But I had no urge to be French about it.
Didn't look like as much fun.

To Asparagus, With Love
This weekend, though, I felt a renewed joy at being an International Mama. All because of a bunch of asparagus.
When I first arrived in Paris from NYC in May 2001, I dropped off my bags at the apartment my law firm had rented for me and then jetted off to work on a case in Frankfurt, Germany, where I would remain for the next two weeks. I remember those two weeks in Frankfurt as being cold and gray, but I was enchanted anyway. I was in Europe! I was going to live in Paris! Everything was delightful and strange –the way people actually sat down and had lunch together (instead of eating alone at your desk as we did in NYC), the heavy, old-fashioned room key that opened the door to my hotel room, the excessively long, impossible to pronounce street names. But the weirdest, most wonderful thing I recall about these first two weeks in Europe was that I happened to arrive in the thick of asparagus season.
Before that time, I don't think I ever gave a thought to asparagus having a season. Hell, before that, I didn't give a thought to any food having a season, except for maybe cantaloupe and watermelon. But if you ever spend time in Germany in late April and May, you'll not soon forget spargel season. It seemed like a festival. Asparagus was everywhere, on every menu, overflowing on every market stand. Mostly the thick white variety, but also slim green stalks too. I ate it with pasta, on pizza, and drizzled with butter. At the end of my first week, my new boss took me to a restaurant that offered a spargel special, where your appetizer, main course, and dessert all featured asparagus. Out of curiosity (mainly about the dessert), I ordered it. It was asparagus cream soup, asparagus with Hollandaise sauce, and asparagus sorbet. It was all fairly tasty but that was it for me and spargel. I did not eat another stalk of asparagus for the rest of the season.
Anyway, last Saturday, I was grocery shopping with my kids on the fabulous rue Montorgueil (another reason I'm happy to be an International Mama), when I saw the market shelves loaded with asparagus. I felt a burst of happiness. Instantly they transported me back to those days when Europe was so new to me, like a gift I had just unwrapped. They reminded me of how (before culture-shock set in) I was eager to immerse myself in new cultures and new languages. They reminded me that I chose this confusing, exhausting and exhilarating expat life. Most of all, they reminded me that I'm not just standing on the periphery of someone else's culture, looking in from the outside. So many aspects of German and French culture - like looking forward to eating asparagus in the spring -have seeped into my life and become a treasured part of it. I may not be fully integrated into French or German culture (or American culture for that matter) – but I am creating a family culture that draws from all three of the countries that influences our lives. This gives me hope that my kids will be the global citizens that everyone insists that they will be, finding strong roots in their hodgepodge family culture.
I bought three bunches of asparagus that day. Later, when my husband saw them in the refrigerator, he shouted joyfully "Spargel!" like a little kid who wakes up remembering that it's his favorite holiday. I cooked them that night (steamed with olive oil, parsley and a chopped hard-boiled egg) and together, my family and I savored the taste of spring.

International Maman?
These days, the baby on the inside has been outside for 8 months old. LK adores the garderie. And I am happy and proud that my son comes home singing French songs that I don't know. But something happened yesterday that got me feeling reflective and moody about our international life.
It was a small something. Really small. All that happened was that the baby (Pup) grabbed ahold of my pant leg to pull himself up and LK, who still gets a bit jealous, pushed at Pup's hands, shouting, "Ne touche pas Maman!" (Don't touch mama!)
For a moment, I was filled with pride (well, not about the pushing and shouting part). This was the first time I'd heard LK say a full sentence in that wasn't just a repeat of something he'd heard at the garderie. Then two things hit me: (i) he was speaking to his little brother in French, and (ii) he had referred to me Maman.
It's not so surprising that LK spoke in French to his brother. After all, French is the language he hears spoken to little kids the most and it's the one (I assume) he speaks with his peers. Still, it was both awesome and strange to think that my boys' chosen language might be the tongue of neither my husband nor myself. But even odder was hearing myself referred to as Maman. 'Cause I gotta to say, while it amuses me to think they might choose to speak French between them: I don't want to be Maman.
There are many lovely things about being a mother, but one of the things I love best is hearing LK call me, "Mama." I never tire of it. Even when he's calling "Mama!" at 3am. Even when he's screaming, "No, Mama!" in the middle of tantrum. Even when I'm on the telephone and suddenly he needs my attention urgently, and says, "Mama? Mama? Mama? Mama? Excuse me...Mama?"
To him, I suppose, it's just my name. But to me, it feels like an endearment. A verbal hug and kiss. But hearing Maman on the other hand....I feel nothing. He might as well call me Mary or Julie or some other name that isn't mine. If he called Maman! in the middle of the night, I suppose I'd still get up. But I also might just poke Dawg and say, "Your turn."
Seriously though, I doubt that the boys will ever end up calling me Maman. But when they speak in French, they might think of me as Maman. They won't think it sounds bizarre as applied to me. It'll just be what they call Mama in French. This makes my brain whirl. It seems so odd to me that they will have some emotional connection to the word Maman, when I - the person they're referring to - has none.

PART 2: Do You want to sell? Or have someone buy? Part 1 redefines buying thus: The process a buyer goes through…
I recently accepted a cold call from an insurance guy because I was thinking of switching providers.
Why do we do what we do? What causes us to succeed, fail, procrastinate? Is it our environment? Our biology? Our New Year's resolutions? There's much debate why our motivation goals fail and how to resolve them. I believe we're addressing the wrong issues.
Everything I've read on resolving "motivation" issues focus on behaviors: why, how, when. Courses, keynote speakers, books, attempts to pump up, stimulate, and otherwise inspire. All trying to cause the ineffective behaviors to change to effective ones. But change doesn't happen this way. Motivation involves both shifting beliefs, and creating new…Read more
Buyer Personas do a great job targeting marketing and sales campaigns to reach the most probable buying audience. But it's possible to make them even more efficient.
Here's a question: Do you want to sell/market? Or have someone buy? The belief is that if you can sell/market appropriately – the right campaign to the right buyer with the right solution at the right time – buyers will buy. If that were true, you'd be closing a helluva lot more than you're closing. Sure, Buyer Personas make a difference in your close rate. But it could be higher.
We live our lives, these days, with continuous stimulation – on-demand access to movies, articles, friends, books, games and music. With all possible, all the time, how can we hear ourselves think long enough for new and creative ideas to emerge? I don't know about you, but my mental commotion from a week of stress causes interminable noise coming from where my ideas should be. And given I'm a thinker, hearing myself think is fundamental. I tried freeing up an hour or two during a week to sit quietly in hopes of hearing my creative voice, but that wasn't sufficient.
I needed a broader time span free of the stimulations involved with daily living. And given my schedule, the only time I had available was weekends. Hence, weekends of boredom.
Today I turn 69. As I look back over my life I feel quite gratified that I have used what I was given to make this world a better place. But I was merely following directions.

The New York Yankees have dropped eight straight at Tropicana Field but have to like their chances in their next matchup there against the Tampa Bay Rays.
Ivan Nova has won 12 straight road decisions and has never lost to the Rays while James Shields has historically struggled against the Yankees as these AL East rivals continue a three-game set Tuesday night.
Although Nova (9-2, 4.03 ERA) and Shields (7-5, 4.04) have nearly identical ERAs, this matchup seems to favor New York (48-31).
Nova is 12-0 with a 3.17 ERA in his last 16 road outings, going 6-0 with a 3.44 ERA in eight this year. He's also 5-0 with a 2.37 ERA in his last seven starts overall, yielding one run over 7 1-3 innings Thursday in a 4-3 home defeat to the White Sox.
The Yankees have won all six starts by Nova against the Rays (42-38), with the right-hander going 4-0 with a 2.82 ERA. That includes a 2-0 mark and 1.80 ERA in two this year.
Shields, meanwhile, is 5-13 with a 4.55 ERA in 23 starts against the Yankees, who have beaten him more than any team. He's 0-2 with a 7.88 ERA in three outings this year, with Robinson Cano going 5 for 8 with two doubles against him in those games.
Cano is a .415 hitter against the right-hander, who has enjoyed much better success against Curtis Granderson (5 for 52 with 14 strikeouts) and Mark Teixeira (6 for 48 with 15). Only Boston's Josh Beckett has struck out Teixeira more.
Granderson is 5 for 41 in the season series and Teixeira 5 for 32. Tampa Bay has won six of 10.
Shields fell to 0-3 with a 3.89 ERA in his last five home starts after allowing four runs and a career-high 14 hits over 7 2-3 innings Thursday in a 5-2 loss to Detroit.
"You can compete all you want, and you can go deep into the game all you want," Shields said. "But the bottom line is you lost the game. I've got to do a better job."
Numerous Tampa Bay hitters have a poor history against Nova, including B.J. Upton (3 for 17), Ben Zobrist (2 for 13) and Carlos Pena (1 for 9).
Outfielder Hideki Matsui is 0 for 3 against Nova, but the 2009 World Series MVP with the Yankees may not be available. Matsui left Monday's 4-3 victory with left hamstring tightness.
Teixeira's first error in 671 chances this year allowed Brooks Conrad to score the eventual winning run in the seventh inning. Conrad had tied the game with a pinch-hit RBI double before Teixeira misplayed Elliot Johnson's sharp grounder.
"The ball, obviously, didn't do what I expected it to do," Teixeira said. "It's very tough. I take a lot of pride in saving runs for our team, but I gave one back tonight.''
Tampa Bay is enjoying its longest home win streak in history over New York. This one came at a much-needed time with the Rays entering the series as losers of six of seven.
Upton and Pena homered and Matt Moore pitched seven innings for the victory. The Rays' four home wins over the Yankees this year have been by a combined seven runs.
