Nassau, Suffolk budget in different ways
Why is Suffolk County sitting relatively pretty these fiscally fragile days, while Nassau County's edging toward a cliff?
One key difference is Suffolk's deserved political reputation as the "Wild, Wild East," where everything - from raising bus fares, adding police officers and selling the county nursing home - gets aired and re-aired, re-re-aired and re-re-re-aired again as political opponents publicly maul their way to a decision.
There are few secrets when Republican lawmakers or coalition lawmakers or Democrat-turned-Republican County Executive Steve Levy, get down and dirty. The public benefits, however, because budget issues are routinely dissected down to gristle in a process that, while messy, leaves little to the public's imagination.
Contrast that with Nassau County, where there probably are residents newly gobsmacked over the question of: How on Earth, with all of the property taxes that we pay, can Nassau be sliding, again, toward insolvency?
One answer: In Nassau, county government - which the once-muscular Nassau County Republican Party decades ago smartly and efficiently transformed from a backwater function into one of the country's most influential political and governmental entities - speaks as one voice.
It's a tradition that continued even when Democrats, beginning with the election of 1999, took over the legislature for the first time in more than 70 years and later won the county executive's office for the first time since the 1960s.
Oh, there's fighting in Nassau, all right. But mostly it's over politics - like who gets what patronage job - rather than policy.
The flaw in Nassau's budgeting history is that elected officials leading the county - during its third fiscal crisis since the mid-1990s - failed to address an ever-widening structural gap between how much money government spent and how much it brought in.
Which is why a primer might come in handy for county residents right now. What's the difference between budgeting in Suffolk and in Nassau?
Here are three:
1. Suffolk's property tax assessment system is handled by its towns rather than the county; which is a great thing because in Nassau, residential and commercial property owners, as they have for decades, file and win appeals of property tax assessments.
Nassau has bonded hundreds of millions of dollars - and residents pony up even more in interest - to cover the cost of those appeals. It's a beast of an expense that Suffolk does not have - and that Nassau has yet to fix.
2. Suffolk executive Levy is cheap and likes to fight, fight, fight. On a police labor contract, he went to a binding arbitration hearing personally to plead for changes. He didn't get much, but he got something.
And county executives in Suffolk - unlike Nassau - never planted big deferred union payments into future budgets. Suffolk in 2009 lagged two weeks pay for employees, but the county will pay that money back, worker by worker, as employees leave, which means minuscule payments over decades.
For 2010, Levy proposed a budget with layoffs (as opposed to the "union concessions" in Nassau County Executive Edward Mangano's 2011 budget proposal). "I know everybody goes after me on stuff like this and that's fine," Levy, unapologetic as always, said in an interview. "My job isn't to support special interests, like unions; my job is to anticipate budget problems and do what's necessary for us to get through them," he said.
3. Suffolk relies less on budget gimmicks than Nassau. For one, Levy has guarded the county's reserve, or rainy day, fund like Cerberus, apportioning out a tiny bit this year to cover a one-time increase in pension- fund payments. The county, he said, while it uses one-shot revenue, works to apply it to one-time, rather than continuing expenses. In Nassau, the county's entire reserve fund - $65 million, down from a high of more than $200 million under former County Executive Thomas Suozzi - is on the line as contingency for operating expenses in the 2011 budget.
Suffolk, like Nassau, includes proposed land sales in its 2011 plan. But there's a difference. In Nassau, there are budgeted parcels that haven't sold in years; in Suffolk, there's meager $12 million for the sale of land in Yaphank. The proposed sale made it into the budget for the first time ever - and that was after more than a year of public hearings and fiery debate.
Suffolk, like Nassau, also includes anticipated revenues from red-light cameras. But here there's a twist too: Suffolk added the revenue after - rather than, as in Nassau's 2011 budget, before - the county won state approval for such cameras. "When we add it to the budget," Levy said, "it's gravy."

That destroys any sense of the world and any feeling of an RPG, for me. I know these things are really action arcade games with a thin RPG wrapper but with the good ones, I can still feel part of a fantasy world (albeit a silly one with over the top combat). When it's all just "fake" arcade action and everything respawns and I always restart in town, I fee like I might as well go play Pacman.
And I don't get what it adds? These things are idiot-proof mass-market consumer-friendly…so why can't I save where I am instead of having to repeat stuff?

You Would've Thought They Worked for Moo-dy's
If you were deciding whether to loan someone money, it would be very useful to know the chances that the person would pay you back. (For example, the higher the chance they would default, the more you would charge them to borrow the money.) Rating agencies–two dominant agencies are Moody's and Standard and Poor's (or "S&P")–are supposed to provide lenders with that information. The less the risk of default on a particular financial instrument, the higher the rating. The rating agencies predict (or model) the risk, and if the rating agencies don't do a good job, financial instruments' market prices don't reflect their actual value.
As others have discussed in a much more nuanced fashion, rating agencies may be partly to blame for the recent financial crisis. The agencies appear to have been more concerned about keeping their clients (those who issued the financial instruments) happy than rating financial instruments accurately. The ratings were too high, prices were too high, lenders and other purchasers of financial instruments didn't anticipate default…and (to oversimplify) there's your financial crisis.
But there appears to have been another market failure associated with rating agencies–a totally unexploited chance for profit.
Recent reports have drawn attention to an IM exchange between two S&P employees:
Employee One: btw – that deal is ridiculous
Employee Two: I know right…model def does not capture half of the [risk]
Employee One: we should not be rating it
Employee Two: we rate every deal
Employee Two: it could be structured by cows and we would rate it
And the last name of Employee Two? Mooney. I'm not kidding. What else would you expect to get when you combine cows and cash?

What happened to the Emergency Broadcast System?
Dear Straight Dope:
Growing up in the seventies and eighties, I remember radio airplay being interrupted by "tests" run by the Emergency Broadcast System: "This is a test." When I heard something similar on the radio the other day, it made me realize that I haven't heard said tests for quite some time, and it got me thinking. Radio stations do not seem to be playing them with anywhere near the same frequency as they used to. Were they primarily a Cold War era necessity? In the case of nuclear war or something? Or were they for all emergencies, including tornados, floods, snow storms, etc.? Were they ever not just a test? I don't recall ever hearing them tell me "it was for real this time, no kidding around!" Also, who were "they"? Who is the Emergency Broadcast System — FCC, CIA, CNN, NORAD?? Who ran it, and who funded it? Is it still around? Will someone still give me "further instructions of what to do in my area in the case of a real emergency"?

Miss those old two-tone attention signals, do we?
Established in 1963 by the Federal Communications Commission, the EBS was designed to transmit messages on all broadcast stations (AM, FM and TV), giving the President a way to address the American people in the event of a national emergency. State and local agencies were also allowed to transmit emergency information via the EBS.
As to whether broadcasts were ever NOT a test — absolutely. In the past year, we Californians have heard the EBS signal intoned many times as emergency officials came on the air to warn us of levy breaks and nearby floods.
The EBS was retired in January 1998 and replaced with the new state-of-the-art Emergency Alert System (EAS) — isn't there always an upgrade? This new system provides access to broadcast stations, cable systems and participating satellite programmers for the transmission of emergency messages (and less obtrusive weekly tests). The EAS uses digital codes developed by the National Weather Service (NWS). NWS offices can originate coded messages that are area specific and will only activate EAS decoders and send emergency warnings to people in the affected geographic area.
Even if you aren't plugged in, the EAS provides the option to permit new specially equipped consumer products — TVs, radios, pagers, etc. — to "turn themselves on" to receive and deliver the emergency message.
But please, rest assured that if this had been an actual emergency, Cecil would have told you where to go.

We've had a number of posts at Jesus Creed about the outcome-based model of education and how it can reshape both preaching and the entire educational program of a local church. Little did I know that Gary Parrett and S. Steve Kang were about to publish a hefty, new book that takes on the education of the Church. Their book is called Teaching the Faith, Forming the Faithful: A Biblical Vision for Education in the Church
The first observation to make about this book is that it is complete: it is a thoroughly-informed biblical and theological analysis of the educational ministry of the local church. The authors are professors and this book emerges after decades of teaching this very topic — so it has been brewed and tasted and approved and tested. They wear their Reformed theology lightly enough that any theological orientation could benefit from the book because the book's focus is not its theology but how to educate the church in a theologically robust manner.
I can but provide a light sampling of what you will find in this book:
Purpose: a mission to fulfill (the poetry of God and building up the body)
Proclamation: a message to obey and teach (the faith once delivered to the saints, the glorious gospel, and the CORE content is the Story and the Faith)
People: of teachers and learners (teachers and building a community of learners)
Practices: strategies for teaching and forming (visions of Christian teaching, from generation to generation, worship and formation, and then two long chapters on the commitments expected of a congregation)

These are some really fun red hot stories of married women who just can't say no!
1. He Watches His Wife on the Beach
2. My Wife is an Escort for Rich Men
3. He Has to Help His Wife with a Delivery
4. Wife Tricks Her Husband
5. She Dates the Boss and He Watches
6. The Neighbor Ties Her Up Before Dinner
7. He Wonders Why She Tastes Different?
8. She Asks Her Bf to Surprise her Husband
©2013 Vince Stead (P)2013 Vince Stead
"Property of Jake"
These stories are pretty much as advertised. If this is your type of perversion, then you should be happy with it. There were two stories that turned me off. I Tricked My Husband, involves male on male, not my perversion. The second or third to last story on why his wife taste different almost made me gag. It is very short though.
There are plenty of well hung black men in this.
I did not like this as much as I thought I would, but everybody is different I believe some people will like this a lot. My favorite was the neighbor who ties the main character's wife up and does unspeakable things to her in front of her husband and the last story is good, where I man breaks into the house, ties up the husband and goes at his wife.
This stuff may be fun to fantasize about, but in real life, if my wife gets a tattoo on her back with a different man's name, well I will not be anywhere as understanding as the husband in the story.
Narration is kind of funny. The girl reading has trouble with some of the words, plays with the microphone, pauses in weird places and I believe this was her first run through of the material. Yet I don't believe it really takes away from the stories.
"Narrator need to relax"

A sixth person has been charged in the case of a man and his girlfriend who were assaulted and left bound and gagged on a San Francisco street.
Twenty-six-year-old Catherine Uong appeared in court on Friday on charges including murder and first-degree residential robbery. She did not enter a plea.
Prosecutors say Uong and four co-defendants stormed a home in the city's Visitacion Valley neighborhood on Dec. 9. Twenty-six-year-old Stephen Reid and his girlfriend were assaulted before being put in a GMC Yukon, where Reid was shot in the neck.
The two were then dumped on the street.
Authorities have not released a possible motive in the attack. Another defendant has been charged as an accessory.
A call to Uong's public defender, Rebecca Young, was not immediately returned.

After a hit first season, and a mediocre second one, some people were wondering if South Park was a one trick pony that had run out of steam (to mix metaphors.)Ā But creators Matt Stone and Trey Parker were able to lay any such doubts to rest with the third year of their show.
South Park, for those who have never seen the show before, is about the trial and tribulations of four third graders growing up in South Park, Colorado.Ā Though it is animated, this show is not for children.Ā There is profanity, frank sexual talk, and the show is often sacrilegious.Ā It is also incredibly funny.
In this season South Park really hit its stride.Ā The first season was about shocking people, and a lot ofĀ the second was trying to find a direction for the show.Ā With the third season South Park came into its own.Ā The creators seemed to feel more confident in their writing.Ā The parodies they did were more frequent and harder hitting in many cases.Ā They continued to have objectionable shows, and even raised the bar a little.Ā (Mr. Garrison's relation with his father in the last episodeĀ of the season beingĀ a good example.)ĀĀ They also made some strange shows that worked very well, such as "Jewbilee."
This set contains all 17 episodes from season three in broadcast order.Ā They are:
Rainforest Shmainforest:Ā Mr. Mackey punishes the boys by making them join an environmental activist children's choir, Getting Gay with Kids.Ā The choir goes to Costa Rica to give a concert and tour the rainforest.Ā But when their guide gets eaten by a snake, and the group gets lost it's up to Cartman to rescue everyone.Ā Jennifer Aniston guest stars as the choir teacher.
Spontaneous Combustion:Ā People are starting to burst into flame.Ā Can Stan's dad figure out what's going on?Ā Also, the kids look for an erection for Kyle's dad since his mother is always complaining that he doesn't have one.
The Succubus:Ā Chef quits his
job and becomes an accountant.Ā Is his new girl friend really helping
him, or is she a succubus who wants to drain his life force?
Tweek vs. Craig:Ā The boys take a shop class (with the exception of Kenny who enrolls in Home Economics.)Ā Cartman bets Stan and Kyle that Craig could take Tweek in a fight.Ā The only way to settle it is to make the two kids fight each other.
Sexual Harassment Panda:ĀĀ Mr. Garrison's class gets a visit from the Sexual Harassment Panda, who educates the class about inappropriate behavior.Ā After hearing this, Cartman sues Stan, and Kyle's dad represents him.
Cat Orgy:Ā This episode and the next two all take place on the same night, but from different people's point of view.Ā Mrs. Cartman is going to Mr. Mackey's meteor shower party, and gets Eric's 12 year old sister to baby sit him.Ā She invites her boyfriend, who's over 20, to the house, and he brings his band.Ā Cartman's cat is in heat, and invites all the felines in the area over for an orgy.
Two Guys Naked in a Hot Tub: A great
episode.Ā Stan's parents bring him to Mr. Mackey's party.Ā Poor
Stan gets exiled to the basement with the other kids who want to dress
up in women's clothing and play Charlie's Angels.Ā Stan and Kyle's
fathers both are in a hot tub alone, and end up masturbating in front of
each other.Ā (Off camera of course.)Ā Meanwhile, the ATF is convinced
that the party is a gathering of cultist who are going to kill themselves
during the meteor shower.
KoRn's Groovy Pirate Ghost Mystery:Ā A hilarious takeoff of Scooby-Doo.Ā The band KoRn help the boys solve a mystery when South Park is invaded by Pirate Ghosts.
Chinpokomon:Ā The latest, hottest toy from Japan hits South Park, Chinpokomon!Ā But when the boys get the toys, their Chinpokomon start to brain wash them to bomb Pearl Harbor.
Hooked on Monkey Phonics:Ā Two home schooled children are competing in the Annual South Park Spelling Bee.Ā Cartman's mother buys him "Hooked on Monkey Phonics" to help him in the Bee.
Starvin' Marvin in Space:Ā Starvin' Marvin finds a crashed space ship and flies it to South Park.Ā There he picks up the boys and they all go to the planet Marklar looking for a home for his people.
The Red Badge of Gayness:Ā Before the annual South Park Civil War reenactment, Cartman bets Kyle and Stan that the south will win this year.Ā In order to win the bet, Cartman incites the drunken reenactors into attacking Topeka.
Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics:Ā The all singing Christmas Special.Ā Mr. Hankey and the gang sing songs from his album Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics.
Are You There God? It's Me, Jesus:Ā Cartman is convince he's having his period because he's bleeding from his anus.Ā Jesus gets upset when he thinks that no one cares about him.
World Wide Recorder Concert:ĀĀ A great show to end the season with.Ā Yoko Ono is hosting the "Four Million Child Blow" an all recorder concert preformed by third graders from across the country.Ā The boys go down and to participate.Ā On the way there, Cartman tried to find the "Brown Noise" that will cause the listener to defecate in his pants.
This is a great season, possibly the best season they've done.Ā Trey Parker and Matt Stone were able to get over the sophomore slump and turn out some quality shows.Ā There are some classic episodes in this season.Ā The return of Starvin' Marvin, The Meteor Shower Trilogy (especially the last chapter) and The Red Badge of Gayness are all excellent.Ā They manage to parody everything from Pokemon to Star Wars to Scooby-Doo in these shows.Ā This is even more impressive when you realize that they made the South Park movie, Bigger, Louder, and Uncut, while they were working on this season.
There is a weak show or two.Ā I didn't care for "Sexual Harassment
Panda" too much, and the Jackovasaurs creatures were very annoying.Ā
But the politically incorrect "Rainforest Shmainforest," probably my favorite
show from this season, more than makes up for it.Ā Overall, a great
set of shows, and a good jumping on point if haven't picked up the previous
seasons yet.
The DVD:
The stereo soundtrack sound clean and clear.Ā I spot checked all the audio tracks, English, French, and Spanish, and they all had a similar sound quality, perfectly suited to the show.
These computer animated construction paper children look great.Ā The colors are bright, the lines crisp, and the contrast is very good.Ā The show strives for a cheap look, and that look is accurately reproduced here.
The Extras:
The main bonus on this set are the "commentary minis" that accompany each episode.Ā Matt and Trey recorded about four minutes of commentary for each show.Ā They explain that they didn't have enough to say about any single episode to fill the entire 22 minutes a show lasts, so they give their comments about a show and then move on to the next one.Ā (The commentary is at the beginning of each show, and they are nice enough to tell you when they are done talking about each episode.)Ā Having had to sit through my share of dull commentaries with long gaps between comments, I can't fault them too much for this decision.Ā I'd much rather have them talk for four solid minutes than try to stretch four minutes worth if information over nearly half an hour.Ā When they were talking, it was very informative and entertaining.Ā They talked about what they liked and disliked, and explained some obscure jokes, including the "Fighting the Frizzies at 11:00" joke from "Mr. Hankey's Christmas Classics."Ā Their comments on The Wild Wild West, which opened the same day as the South Park movie are hilarious.
The only other extra on the set are two "Quick Takes" from Comedy Central.Ā
The first has the South Park kids singing as the boy band "Finger Gang"
and the second is a funny sketch from Chappella's Show, "Trading
Final Thoughts:
In this season, South Park really found its voice.Ā Though the second season wasn't bad, the third season was a real improvement.ĀĀ The short commentaries were very good, and though I wish that they were longer, and I can understand the decision to have them brief.Ā Hilarious episodes and as politically incorrect as ever, this set is sure to please fans of the show, and is a good jumping on point for those who haven't seen the show yet..Ā Highly recommended.

He may never win the lottery, but he doesn't seem to mind
A ghost named Luck walks the earth right alongside us, a spook wearing layman's clothes. Sometimes, the ghost tosses us pristine set waves and mysteriously clears traffic. Other times, she writes us parking tickets and convinces dogs to bite. Or, if you're Yadin Nicol, the ghost uses your limbs as a piñata and prevents you from backing up 10-point rides in crucial heats.
Unfortunately, Yadin's thread of bad luck has been knitting him a straight jacket. But while most would put on their pouty faces and sulk, Yadin wears a smile and sets his eyes toward that light at the end of the tunnel. Because Yadin knows, it could be worse… —Brendan Buckley
YADIN: I had to work so hard to make the tour and right after I had finally made it, I broke my ankle. It was a massive disappointment, but I would have been a lot more freaked out if it had happened before I qualified. Knowing I would compete on tour once I healed, the light at the end of the tunnel was pretty bright. I was motivated to get myself better and get the rest of my body strong. And my wife was pregnant at the time, so we just hung out and had a good time doing absolutely nothing and eating a lot. [laughs]
Needing a result at Pipe to requalify, I got a 10 in the quarters but I wasn't able to back it up. It stung, but it's really not that big a deal in the scheme of things. I'm going do the primes and some six-stars next year, but I'm mostly excited to go get some waves. It's been two years since I've been on a surf trip where we've gotten crazy waves, whereas before I qualified I was going on trips with crazy waves every month. So I'm just happy to get back into that.
I hurt my shoulder in Europe a few months ago, but I've just been surfing through it. I finally just had surgery and now I'm out of the water for four months. But that means I get to relax and hang out with my wife and kid. On the surfing side of things, I guess it just means that I have a nine-month year instead of a 12-month one, which is fine. It could always be worse — I could be a boogie boarder. [laughs]

Waziristan drone strike kills 4 including Arabs
Waziristan drone strike kills 4 including Arabs
ISLAMABAD (PAN): Four suspected militants were killed in a drone strike, the first since November, in Pakistan's North Waziristan tribal region near the Afghanistan border, officials said on Wednesday.
Two missiles were fired from the CIA-operated aircraft into a house in the Chashma Pul area, five kilometres from Miranshah, in the predawn attack, political administration official Taslim Khan said.
Four militants, including three foreigners, were killed in the raid that came after a pause of months, he told Pajhwok Afghan News. Three of the dead were Arab fighters, one intelligence source said, without giving details.
A local journalist, Malik Mumtaz, said the building caught fire and was destroyed as a result of the strike, scaring area residents. The pilotless plane had been hovering over the area for the past three days, he added.
Drone attacks were halted after NATO helicopters targeted two Pakistani security posts in the Salala area of Mohmand Agency, killing 24 soldiers and injuring more than a dozen others on Nov. 26, 2011. The CIA conducted its last drone attack in Pakistan on Nov. 16.
Soon after the Salala raid, Pakistan stopped supplies to Afghanistan-based foreign troops through the Torkham border and gave the US a 15-day ultimatum to vacate Shamsi Air Base in Balochistan province.

AbstractStudies have shown that up to 70 percent of conventionally applied fertilizer goes unutilized by plants and becomes a contaminant of surface and ground (drinking) water. Fertilizer run-off in surface water leads to oxygen depletion of streams, lakes, and other bodies of water. Without oxygen, the water becomes uninhabitable for fish and other aquatic organisms. In addition to the negative environmental impacts, fertilizer waste through leaching increases farm expenditures for fertilizer materials, labor, and fuel due to the need for multiple applications of fertilizer. As the costs of traditional fertilizers continue to rise and environmental regulations become more stringent, more attention will be directed toward developing efficient fertilizer technology. Cost competitive fertilizer materials with greater efficiency in nutrient delivery would be environmentally and economically advantageous, providing significant savings to American farmers. Controlled-release fertilizers, capable of delivering plant nutrients in a controlled manner over time, are the most promising fertilizer technology. However, controlled-release fertilizers currently command a 3x to 10x premium over traditional fertilizers, making them too expensive for most crop applications. Therefore, new technology is needed to make controlled-release fertilizers cost competitive with conventional fertilization strategies. This Phase I project outlines new controlled-release fertilizer systems which utilize a biodegradable polymer matrix made from renewable resources. The polymers targeted in this project will be derived from xylaric acid which is produced in one chemical oxidation step from xylose (wood sugar), a carbohydrate component of biomass. To demonstrate the feasibility of using xylaric acid-based polyamides as the basis for controlled-release fertilizer systems, this project sets the following objectives a) to optimize a new, low-cost polymerization method for condensing xylaric acid with select commercially-available diamines, b) to develop a protocol for encapsulating conventional fertilizer materials within the xylaric acid-based polyamides, and c) to measure the nutrient release from the polymer encapsulated fertilizers. We expect the results from this project to help bridge the economic gap between conventional and controlled-release fertilizers, making the latter more affordable through the use of a superior polymeric material for encapsulating fertilizer components. At the conclusion of this project we expect to have platform technology for preparing a number of polymer encapsulated fertilizer materials derived from xylaric acid, select diamines, and conventional fertilizers. This will mitigate large expenditures in the fertilization process and curtail environmental impacts associated with conventional fertilizing procedures.

George Sudarshan
Ennackal Chandy George Sudarshan (born September 16, 1931, Pallam, in Kottayam district of Kerala, India), also named E.C.G. Sudarshan, is one of the outstanding physicists of the 20th century.

Another time during lectures on Classical Logic, we were introduced to an "experimentum crucis". It was illustrated by the deciding experiment of Fizeau on the speed of light in water as compared to its speed in air. Since wave theory predicts that speed in water is less, and corpuscular theory (with point particles) predicts it would be faster, this is supposed to have selected the wave theory is correct. But then how would one accommodate the photoelectric effect? Then it turns out that if the "corpuscle" of light had a finite size, corpuscular theory also predicts lower speed of light in water. But then one can ask how come photoelectric emission being prompt even in feeble light, how could the energy of a photon spread over π(λ/2)2 act as a whole and liberate a single photoelectron! This leads us to question the square of the amplitude being interpreted as the probability of the particle being formed in the immediate vicinity. How do probabilities enter quantum mechanics? Thus the questions (and the quest) go on.

Mike Woodson called out Carmelo Anthony after Friday's loss for passing up two scoring chances at the end of the game.
Melo being ripped for not taking a shot? Well that's new. Much was made of Anthony's attempt to get his teammates more involved this season, but no one would be saying anything if the Knicks were winning. While this might be a real-life concern for Woodson, fantasy owners were plenty happy with Anthony's 32 points, six rebounds, four assists, one steal and one block in Friday's game.

Sometimes life hands you strawberries, so you make cake. I know, I know. That is exactly what happened and how this cake came about.
I have had such a busy few weeks, could you tell by my sparse posting?
After my girls came home from Greece, we had quite a few visitors who wanted to welcome them back home. So I found myself making quick appetizers and desserts to serve. This my friends was one of the fast, easy and absolutely delicious desserts I made. It is so moist, and the addition of toffee & cinnamon just bring it over the top. Did I mention to you it starts off with boxed cake mix? I didn't? This could not be any easier for an easy and fast show stopper!
Ready for the recipe? Here we go;
1 box white cake mix (can use yellow) - SEE NOTES
1 cup toffee bits (I used Heath)
1-1/2 tsp ground cinnamon
2 tbsp brown sugar
1 tbsp flour
Notes: You can certainly use your favorite homemade cake recipe, I was just in a hurry.
-Preheat oven to 350F.
-Prepare your cake mix using the instructions on the box, set aside.
-Using a small bowl, add your toffee bits, cinnamon and brown sugar, stir till thoroughly mixed through, set aside.
-Grease your favorite bunt pan, sprinkle the 1 tbsp of flour on the bottom portion of your bunt pan and pour half the cake mixture into it.
-Sprinkle your toffee filling directly over the cake batter, evenly.
-Bake as directed for a bunt cake according to box instructions, my box cake stated 45-55 minutes. I baked it for 52 minutes.
-Take out of oven and let rest for about 8-10 minutes in pan, then carefully invert onto cooking rack to cool all the way through.
-You are going to ask me; "Didi why are we sprinkling 1 tbsp of flour on the bottom of the pan"? "Aha, I thought you would never ask"? The reason why is because the toffee will melt and become delicious and gooey and just stick to everything don't you know...
So when we add the addition of 1 tbsp of flour to the bottom, the cake being ever so moist now will have something to adhere to and the top of the bunt will not stick to everything in site and will easily slip out when inverted.
So when we add the addition of 1 tbsp of flour to the bottom, the cake being ever so moist now will have something to adhere to and the top of the bunt will not stick to everything in site and will easily slip out when inverted.
I know, I know... I told you I loved you guys!
I served mine with fresh strawberries sprinkled with a little bit of sugar and just some non-dairy topping. To be honest with you, IT WAS DELICIOUS!! It was completely gobbled up and the cake disappeared before I could have more than one bite.
There is just something extra special about strawberries, cinnamon and toffee. They just form a perfect marriage!
Till next time!

Brett Stephens
PONTE VEDRA BEACH -- Brett William Stephens said addiction sent him into his neighbors' homes, stealing jewelry, guns and electronics to trade with a drug-ring from Jacksonville Beach.
"I've battled heroin. I've battled LSD. I've battled crack," Stephens told The St. Augustine Record in a recent interview from jail. He said there is no escaping the addiction inside him. "I might go to prison for five, 10 years and when I get out I'm going to face the same thing."
Stephens, 39, said he burglarized four homes around Christmastime in L'Atrium, a community of single-family homes in Ponte Vedra Beach off State Road A1A. He said the valuables and firearms he stole supplied his habit of smoking $200 to $400 of crack each day.
Stephens said he has spent about 15 years in and out of Georgia prisons, but always returned back to society an addict. His goal when he was released in August was to move to Florida, get a job and stay clean. Then he fell into association with the Jacksonville Beach dealers.
Stephens said he knew what needed to be done to get the drugs.
"I'm a career criminal," he said. "My theft skills are way up there."
In the days after Stephens' capture in Sawgrass Village on Jan. 6, investigators arrested six men, a woman and a 13-year-old boy they said were linked with trading Stephens crack for stolen goods.
Fearing for Stephens' safety when the Jacksonville Beach men were locked in surrounding jail cells, investigators said they moved him from the St. Johns Detention Center to an undisclosed county jail.
Stephens is being held on a $150,000 bond for charges of armed burglary of a dwelling and grand theft. Formal charges were filed by the State Attorney's Office on Friday, according to Assistant State Attorney Greg Allen.
An arraignment date will be set in the coming weeks, he said.
Three warrants have also been issued but not served on additional charges of armed burglary, burglary of a structure or conveyance and burglary with assault or battery.
Allen said formal charges were filed on the burglary with assault or battery charge on Jan. 8.
Investigators with the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office reported in an affidavit that Stephens battered a young woman in one of the homes he burglarized.
Since 1989, Stephens has been sentenced to prison or probation terms seven times, according to the Georgia Department of Corrections.
He said he can't count how many times he's been arrested.
Back behind bars, Stephens said it troubles him that he let himself slip into what he called "the worst spiral of my life." He wonders if there is any hope for him.
He wanted to send a message to the residents he burglarized. It wasn't maliciousness that made him steal, just a hunger for crack.
"All I'm trying to do is lead a normal life," Stephens said. "I'm struggling. But that doesn't excuse it. I take responsibility for what I did."
Jeanne Spaulding, a resident in L'Atrium, said despite Stephens' wish to be clean of drugs and start his life over, residents stand firm on not wanting him back in the neighborhood. She said the fear he brought to her quiet community is unforgivable. Many went to bed at night wondering if they would be the next victims.
"We're happy he's put away and hope he stays away and is not released to our community again," Spaulding said.
The spiral down
"They wanted guns, computers, electronics, jewelry, things of value," Stephens said. "Mainly they were interested in guns."
Leaving behind the friends and connections, who led him to drug use and crime in Georgia, Stephens moved in with his adopted parents in L'Atrium when he was released from prison. He was set free on parole Aug. 29 following a 17-month sentence for burglary and two counts of "theft by receiving" in Cobb County.
"Theft by receiving" means he knew the items he accepted were stolen, according to officials at the Georgia Department of Corrections.
Stephens said when he moved to Florida he began painting homes and working in construction to save a little money. He managed to put away $3,000 in his bank account. He said he had been clean almost four years. He began taking nightly jogs off 22nd Street in Jacksonville Beach, saying he wanted to live "like a normal person."
After returning to his car from a run in early December, a man approached him. "We started talking and he said, 'Do you party?' " Stephens remembered. "I said, 'I used to.' "
The man handed him a crack rock and cell phone number to call if Stephens wanted more. "I knew I was doomed right there," Stephens said.
Within a couple of weeks, the $3,000 he had saved was gone as Stephens again surrendered to his addiction. After draining his savings, it got to be "an act of desperation," he said.
On Dec. 14, investigators were called to an attempted burglary in L'Atrium. Stephens said he went into a home he thought was unoccupied, but had a surprise encounter with a young woman inside.
According to the affidavit from the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office, Stephens broke into the home around 4:30 a.m. and confronted the woman.
The affidavit said Stephens sat on the woman, covered her mouth to muffle her screams, then tried to remove her shorts.
"I asked her for money and she said she didn't have any," Stephens said, not admitting he touched the woman. "She screamed and I turned around and ran."
In the weeks that followed, investigators went to four homes in L'Atrium that were burglarized. By the time Stephens was caught, an estimated $50,000 in guns, jewelry, DVDs, televisions and other valuables had been stolen from residents to exchange for drugs, according to Sgt. Christine Lee, supervisor of the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office Property Crimes Unit.
"They just knew once they got him hooked, since he didn't have a steady job, he would do what he had to do to get the drugs," Lee said. She said during one trade, Stephens exchanged a gun for $200 worth of crack, which is about 10 rocks.
Stephens said that was barely enough to supply his addiction for a single day.
Some residents said Stephens' work on homes in L'Atrium gave him a glimpse into their valuables, according to St. Johns Detective Chris Wensil. "One couple that he painted for, they are missing some jewelry, a rather large diamond ring," he said.
'A quick fix'
Binging on the last of his stash the early morning of Dec. 29, Stephens said he came down from the high and couldn't sleep. His body ached for more. The only solution in his mind was to break into a home to steal more valuables to trade.
Normally, the dealers came to his girlfriend's home in L'Atrium to make the trades, he said. On this night, he went to them.
He stole a television from a home and took the residents' car to hunt down the dealers in Jacksonville Beach. "I wasn't intending to steal the car. I was just using the car for transportation because what I had in the car I could get a quick fix," he said.
As Stephens circled the streets in Jacksonville Beach searching for a dealer, an officer stopped him on Third Street. The officer told Stephens he was clocked driving 52 mph in a 35 mph zone.
With the television in the backseat, Stephens said he convinced the Jacksonville Beach officer that he was borrowing his girlfriend's car. He handed the officer his driver's license and insurance, but said he could not find the car's registration. The address on Stephens' driver's license was down the street from the address of the car's owner, so the officer gave Stephens a break and let him go with a speeding ticket.
The woman burglarized that night returned home in early January after being out of town for a New Year's celebration. She found her home ransacked, with $8,700 of her possessions gone. Missing, she said, were her television and items handed down by her family for generations.
Outside, her Honda Accord was parked as she left it, but she found cigarette ashes in the console, the seat positioned differently and the radio tuned to a station she never listened to.
The woman called the St. Johns County Sheriff's Office to report the burglary and her suspicion that her car might have been taken from her home at some point while she was away.
St. Johns detectives made calls to surrounding law enforcement agencies and learned Stephens had been stopped in Jacksonville Beach a couple of days earlier for speeding. With his driver's license supplying a description and place of residence, detectives finally had a suspect for the burglaries inside L'Atrium throughout December.
Later that day, Stephens and his girlfriend, Pennie Koenig, rode bikes over to Publix supermarket to buy groceries. "The next thing we knew there were a bunch of people around with guns," said Koenig, 46.
Recovering the losses
Detectives are now trying to recover stolen property, checking pawnshops and working with Jacksonville Beach authorities. The television reported in the backseat of the car the night Stephens was stopped has still not been recovered, Lee said.
Sorting through the pages logging the missing items, Wensil said he recently went to a pawnshop in Atlantic Beach and found dozens of items pawned under Stephens' name, including nine CDs, and "35 silver family heirloom-type pieces of jewelry."
He asked a woman to come and verify the items belonged to her. "Every bit of it was hers," he said.
Stephens has not admitted to robbing this particular woman's home, Wensil said.
Koenig said after Stephens was arrested, she opened her home to detectives.
Stephens had moved out of his parents' home to stay with Koenig at her home on L'Atrium Circle, where Koenig had lived the past 17 years. She said detectives searched through the attic, vents and opened the chimney to see if her boyfriend was stowing any stolen items.
Last week, Koenig picked up a final truckload of evidence from the Sheriff's Office after it was determined the items belonged to Stephens. She said investigators took his fishing rods and reels, tools, hats, shoes, anything that might have been stolen to pawn or trade.
"I've been removing tags from everything," Koenig said Wednesday. More than a dozen bags of evidence clutter her garage.
She said she is moving from Ponte Vedra Beach this weekend, since many in the community think she should be jailed as an accessory to Stephens' crimes.
"It hurts when some of these people you've known all these years think you should be arrested," she said.
Lee said Koenig was not charged because she was unaware of the burglaries and did not benefit from them in any way.
Stephens said he hid his addiction and the burglaries from his girlfriend.
"She has nothing to do with this," he said. "I did this all behind her back. She had no knowledge."
He said he never kept the stolen items for long, even if he was storing them in her garage in the hours before they were traded. "It was all set up," he said, explaining how he did business with the dealers. "They told me what they wanted and I would go get it. I took everything knowing that it was already gone."
Bigger arrests
"As long as they are making money off you, they are your friends," Stephens said. "They are basically as bad off as the addict. They are addicted to money."
At 7:30 the night after Stephens' capture, police cars lit up the entrance of L'Atrium as some of the suspects believed to have been trading crack for guns and other stolen items were arrested at gunpoint a few blocks from Stephens' home.
Three men known to be associated with drug activity in Jacksonville Beach were arrested on various charges, including possession of crack and stolen items. A gun stolen from one of the L'Atrium homes was seized while investigators searched the suspects, Lee said.
She said investigators had received information the men were returning to Stephens' home that night to trade crack for more guns.
In the group arrested, a 13-year-old boy was taken into custody.
Carrying crack in his pocket, the boy was wearing an ankle bracelet to monitor his movements, according to a court order as part of his probation.
All together, a small bag of marijuana and 10 rocks of crack were seized from the men arrested.
The investigation did not end there. In the following days, agents with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms along with detectives involved in the case raided two homes in Jacksonville Beach, arresting four more suspects and seizing nine firearms, 11 grams of crack, 189 grams of marijuana and numerous items of drug paraphernalia.
Another gun recovered in that raid also was reported stolen from a home in L'Atrium.
Lee said the dealers Stephens traded with were working in a 10-block "high-drug traffic" stretch in Jacksonville Beach, running parallel to Beach Boulevard.
She said they knew better than to pawn off the goods traded from Stephens. That would give police the advantage of tracing them.
Instead, they likely gave the televisions, DVD players and jewelry to close friends and family. "It can go through four or five hands before it winds up in someone's living room," she said.
The wrong choice
"It's hell. I don't sleep, I don't eat."
This is how Stephens describes being damned to what he fears will be a life fighting addiction. When deprived of drugs, he said his mind focuses only on the need for the next fix.
He said he still dreams of using when he sleeps in his cell some nights.
"After the first time, you've gotta have it," he said. "You'd give everything for it."
Stephens said he began dabbling in drugs when he was 17. Prison has been his second home, and virtually the only place where he has been sober since before he reached adulthood, he said.
He celebrated his 39th birthday in jail on Tuesday, and his only gift came from Koenig, who played her harmonica and sang happy birthday to him over the phone. "I got a laugh out of it," he said. "But it was just another day. I've spent many birthdays in jail and prison. It's nothing new."
While Koenig said she didn't know her boyfriend was deeply into drugs, she admitted noticing some warning signs in the days before detectives came for him. "I could see maybe his worried look," she said. "His being here, but not here."
But Stephens blames no one but himself.
He said his adopted parents nurtured him when they took him into their home when he was 5 years old.
Before that, he and his sister lived in about 15 foster homes, he said.
"They did the best job they could of raising me," he said. "This doesn't really have a reflection on them."
And now the woman he placed in danger is the only one who has hope for him, Stephens said. When inviting armed dealers into Koenig's garage for a trade, there was always the potential for violence, he said.
He wants her to know addiction is a battle he wished he never had to face.
"If I could change any one thing in my life it would be that I never used any drug," he said. "What I've done has been my choice and it's been the wrong choice."
Criminal connections
These are the seven suspects investigators said they believe are linked to trading crack for guns, jewelry and other valuables stolen by Brett William Stephens inside a Ponte Vedra Beach community.
Detectives arrested Jmarr McNeil, Waldon Caine, Rasha Donell Holland and a 13-year-old boy on Jan. 7 near Stephens' home in L'Atrium. Detectives seized a small amount of marijuana, 10 rocks of crack and a gun.
The following day, detectives arrested Deonta Remone Moore, Shirley Gwendolyn Owensby, Sherman Hoyt Easley and Tomarcus Delmarrio Moore, while raiding two homes in Jacksonville Beach. Detectives seized nine guns, 11 grams of crack, 189 grams of marijuana and numerous articles of drug paraphernalia.
All the suspects have been released from jail. Here are mug shots of each, their charges and dates bonding out:
Jmarr McNeil was charged with dealing in stolen property, possession of crack and possession of less than 20 grams of marijuana. He was released from jail Jan. 25 on a $10,000 bond
Waldon Caine was charged with fleeing and attempting to elude, driving on a suspended license and possession of crack. He was released Jan. 9 on an $11,500 blanket bond.
Rasha Donell Holland was charged with possession of crack and possession of less than 20 grams of marijuana. He was released Jan. 10 on a $10,000 bond.
Deonta Remone Moore was charged with two counts of dealing in stolen property, possession of more than 20 grams of marijuana, possession of crack and two counts of possession of drug paraphernalia. He was released Jan. 9 on a $6,000 blanket bond.
Shirley Gwendolyn Owensby was charged with possession of crack, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. Owensby was released Jan. 16 on a $15,000 bond.
Sherman Hoyt Easley was charged with possession of crack, possession of marijuana and possession of drug paraphernalia. He was released Jan. 16 on a $50,000 bond.
Tomarcus Delmarrio Moore was charged with possession of crack. He was released Jan. 29, but no bond information was available.

LF DEAL ALERT: Puerto Vallarta Luxury and Value
One of the places I've most enjoyed staying in Puerto Vallarta is Villa Premiere Hotel & Spa. Part of the pleasure is the size; with only 83 rooms, it's not crowded like larger resorts, yet it's big enough to offer plenty of services (including excellent spa treatments). Part of the appeal is the comfortable and peaceful environment (guests can only bring their kids if they're at least 16 years old). Of course, the big pool and beachfront scenery doesn't hurt either.
But what I also like is the location. Most of the full-service resort hotels in the Puerto Vallarta area are in master-planned planned developments like Marina Vallarta, which is lovely but not exactly walking distance to anything outside of the complex itself. Premiere's location in a quiet corner not far from the city's boardwalk means you can go for walks, and even arrive at the city's charming center without stepping foot in a bus or cab.
Here are some noteworthy deals now available at Premiere:
• Stay three or more nights and get a free upgrade to the next room category (when available), as well as unlimited complimentary Wi-Fi access in the guest room. (Offer valid for stays through March 27)
• The Winter Package, priced at $269 per room, per night, for two people, includes accommodations in an oceanfront guest room with Jacuzzi, daily American breakfast for two, and a 20% discount on spa treatments (Valid for stays through April 30)

NYC: A Place to Grow Old?
As my valued colleague hangs up his NYPL id and follows the dream of "westward ho" I ponder my own fate on the east coast and in particular the question, "Is NYC a place to grow old?" Stepping lively onto a subway, is that a future I'll be equipped physically, financially, and emotionally to handle?
If you've ever wondered the same thing, be sure to check out the report, Toward An Age-Friendly New York City, recently released by the New York Academy of Medicine president Jo Ivey Boufford, Speaker Christine C. Quinn and Deputy Mayor for Health and Human Services Linda Gibbs. This report identifies 8 areas for improvement, in regard to bettering the City for an expected 45 percent increase in NYC's over age 65 population by 2030.
Finally some insight, from those in the know, real older adults living throughout the five boroughs, to the question, "Is NYC an ideal place to grow old?" What are the advantages and disadvantages for older adults living in NYC? What areas need improvement?
In regard to stepping lively onto the subway, adults interviewed mentioned that it would be helpful to have more subways to step lively onto, in areas of the city with large populations of older adults, and dare to dream, restroom access for subway and bus riders. Just a few of the many useful suggestions our city planners can consider as the City rolls into the future.
Until such time as our City is perfect in every way, check out Public Advocate Betsy Gotbaum's Guide to Senior Services in New York City.
Be sure to stay healthy enough to enjoy all the wonderful cultural events our city has to offer by checking out the senior health section of MedlinePlus. Will you still love NYC when you're 65?

I'm not a fan of Henry Elijah Holohan. Henry Holohan is a BIT much, and Henry ends with a long E sound... the same sound Elijah starts with. So, it will become Henreelijah Holohan. I'd switch up the names...
I don't really like names ending with an N with Holohan (as it also ends with an N)... So, no Dean or Stellan (see how Stellan Holohan is borderline rhymy?). Wyatt and Emmett are a bit overdone and trendy, imho. I actually really like Kiefer Holohan or Saul Holohan... they are both unique and interesting, while still maintaining their manly charm.

A study concludes that tax incentives to stem runaway movie and television production has created 20,000 California jobs and contributed nearly $4 billion to the state economy since 2009.
California's Film and Television Tax Credit Program gives $100 million a year in tax credits to Hollywood producers.
A Los Angeles County Economic Development Corp. study released Tuesday finds the tax incentives have been successful.
Assemblyman Felipe Fuentes, Los Angeles Councilman Paul Krekorian and ABC-TV "Body of Proof" executive producer Matthew Gross were on hand outside the show's Burbank set on Tuesday to release the study.
"Body of Proof" recently moved production back to California because of the tax credit program. The show expects to spend more than $43 million and create at least 200 jobs in the coming year.

Video: Schoolgirl viciously attacks teenage boy after he refuses to hit her in humiliating YouTube clip
SHOCKING video footage has emerged of a 'happy slapping' incident in which a schoolgirl repeatedly tries to goad a boy into hitting her before launching a vicious attack on him.
Although the audio on the footage is muffled at times, the girl can be seen provoking the victim, before he says: "I don't hit lassies."
The person filming the incident is then heard to say: "Right well I'm walking home, if you're going to hit him, hit him. He's taken his glasses off, just hit him."
There is an inaudible exchange before the girl says: "You don't be f****** cheeky to me right?"
She then punches the boy in the face five times and attempts to get him to retaliate, shouting: "Go on, hit me!"
However the victim keeps his arms by his side throughout the encounter, and tells his attacker again: "I don't hit lassies, right?"
An investigation has been launched by the pupils' school in Wishaw in Scotland after the footage was posted to YouTube.
The incident has been reported to police who have said they are investigating.
The video has been removed from YouTube as it violates the site's terms of service which forbids 'happy slapping' videos from being posted.

Preston North End v Huddersfield Town
BBC coverage
- How to follow:
- BBC Radio 5 live, BBC local radio; live text commentary on the BBC Sport website
Preston striker Jermaine Beckford is unlikely to return from a hamstring injury in time to face his former club.
Marnick Vermijl and Aiden McGeady (both hamstring) are also set to miss out alongside John Welsh (calf), but Greg Cunningham is available after a ban.
Winger Sean Scannell is in line to return for Huddersfield after time on the sidelines with a hip issue.
David Wagner has no fresh injury concerns, though forward Joe Lolley remains sidelined with a foot problem.
Match facts
- Preston haven't lost at Deepdale against the Terriers in all competitions since November 1969, winning eight and drawing six since then.
- Huddersfield have only kept one clean sheet in their last eight league games at Deepdale, doing so in a 0-0 draw in April 2001 with Nico Vaesen recording the shutout.
- Preston are unbeaten in their last four Championship games (W2 D2), which is their longest such run since February (five unbeaten).
- Huddersfield are the only team in the Championship who are yet to concede more than one goal in a league game this season.
- Only Brighton (6) are riding a longer unbeaten streak than Preston (4) in the Championship.
- The Terriers are one of three Championship teams yet drop points from a winning position this season (along with Ipswich and Leeds).

Comment Guidelines: The SportsTG Network is made up of players, families and passionate sports followers like you who have a strong opinion about sport. That's great - we want you to have your say and share your thoughts with the world. However, we have a few rules that you must follow to keep it fun for all. Please don't be rude, abusive, swear or vilify others. Apart from some pretty serious sport sanctions, we also can ban you and report you if things get out of hand. So play fair and have fun, and thanks for your contribution.
