Experience Matters
Let me help you uncover your highest wisdom, and live your deepest truth
Far too often, people consider seeking counseling a sign of weakness. However, that is not that case. It takes tremendous courage to move through the pain and live the life of your dreams. I love helping clients identify their wisdom, hope, and strength that exist despite their fears. Counseling with me can nourish your soul and help to heal your painful wounds.
I have been serving clients in Denver, Colorado, for over 15 years with my motivational, inspirational, and solution-focused counseling. I am honored to have provided training and counseling to our U.S. Military members and families since January 2009.
I am proud to be serving as the President of the Colorado Counseling Association. I am a Licensed Professional Counselor, a Master Addiction Counselor, and a National Certified Counselor. I graduated from the University of Colorado Denver in 2001 with a Master's degree in Counseling Psychology with a Marriage and Family focus. I am currently a student at the University of Denver and the Iliff School of Theology joint PhD program studying spiritual psychology.
As a published author on Solution-Focused Brief Therapy (SFBT), I use my extensive experience and skills to help you discover and take action toward living your own solutions. My years of experience and training in many areas of counseling have provided me with a wide variety of tools to help you find your path to meaning, connection, and happiness.
My services can help with the following in the Denver, Cherry Creek, and surrounding CO areas:
Marriage and Couples Counseling
Substance Abuse/Misuse
Life Coaching
Gender Issues
Supervision and Consulting Services
My approach to therapy includes SFBT techniques. These techniques focus on your best hopes for yourself, and looks at what is working in your life instead of concentrating on what is not working. However serious your problems are, we can work together to identify your hope that you can and will get through this, and that you will get better. At the very least, we can work to identify the coping skills that are assisting you in keeping your head above water. We all have wisdom to generate solutions to our problems but sometimes we forget our own power. I can help your rediscover what you might have once known about who you truly are. In our personal counseling sessions, I will ask thought-provoking questions that aid in remembering your past solutions and help you understand how to use past solutions to handle problems in the future.
There is a myth floating around that Solution Focused practitioners don't focus on feelings. This couldn't be further from the truth (at least for me). I focus on feelings all of the time in my sessions! I am constantly recognizing and affirming the joy, the enthusiasm, the hope, the ecstasy, the excitement, the giddiness, the lightness, the optimism, that comes with exploration of possibilities with my clients. You are well aware of the pain, the sadness, the grief, the darkness, the pain that you are dealing with. More often than not, you have spent days, weeks, months, years even, marinating in and ruminating about your painful feelings. I believe that it is my job as a counselor to acknowledge and honor your painful feelings, and to help you explore opportunities and possibilities. Often, this will elicit different feelings than what you have been experiencing around your problems. Like an emotional scavenger hunt, I help you explore hope, happiness, meaning, and joy despite the circumstance or events of your life that bring you to counseling.
What's the difference between a Licensed Professional Counselor and other mental health clinicians in Colorado?
Registered Psychotherapist:
Colorado is the only state that allows anyone to register with the Department of Regulatory Agencies as a Registered Psychotherapist without any sort of education, training, experience, or background. If you choose to see someone who is unlicensed, be aware that they may not have any training, education, testing, experience, or continuing education in the field. Basically, in Colorado, anyone can hang up a shingle, register with the state and call themselves a "Psychotherapist."
Licensed Professional Counselors:
LPCs must have a Master's Degree in their profession from an accredited program. They must pass a national certification exam, and must have a minimum of two years post-graduation supervised experience and at least 2,000 contact hours with clients.
Addiction Counselors:
Master Addiction Counselor
Master's Degree or higher in Substance Use Disorders/Addiction and/or related counseling subjects (social work, mental health counseling, psychology) from a regionally accredited institution of higher learning.
Current credential or license as a Substance Use Disorder/Addiction counselor or Professional Counselor (social worker, mental health, marriage & family, professional counselor, psychologist, psychiatrist, medical doctor) issued by a state or credentialing authority.
At least three years full-time or 6,000 hours of supervised experience as a Substance Use Disorder/Addiction counselor.
At least 500 contact hours of education and training in Substance Use Disorder/Addiction. Must include six hours of ethics training and six hours of HIV/bloodborne pathogens training within the last six years. At least 50% of training hours must be face-to-face.
Passing score on the MAC examination within four years of the application.
Certified Addiction Counselor I (CAC I)
must be a high school graduate, complete required training hours and 1,000 hours of supervised experience.

must complete additional required training hours and 2,000 hours of supervised experience.
Certified Addiction Counselor III (CAC III)
must have a bachelor's degree in behavioral health, complete additional required training hours and 2,000 hours of supervised experience.
Licensed Addiction Counselor
must have a clinical master's degree and meet the CAC III requirements.
Psychologist Candidate, a Marriage and Family Therapist Candidate, and a Licensed Professional Counselor Candidate (LPCC) must hold the necessary licensing degree and be in the process of completing the required supervision for licensure.
Licensed Clinical Social Worker, a Licensed Marriage and Family Therapist, and a Licensed Professional Counselor must hold a master's degree in their profession and have two years of post-masters supervision.
A Licensed Psychologist must hold a doctorate degree in psychology and have one year of post-doctoral supervision.

i am a big time noob :( and i just installed RH7.3 w/ KDE and GNOMEand got enlightenment installed
how do i add enlightenment to the KDE Login Manager?
I tried adding it to Kcontrol>Sysyem>login Manager>Session but if i click on it in the login Manager it goes into kde?
[/edit] nevermind, i went back to Kcontrol and typed "enlightenment" and it works, i think i mispelled it the first time
i didnt think redhat 7.3 came with enlightenment?????
I never found the way to do this either on RH7.2
It's possible, you have to fiddle with it for a while, first we need to know which of the following managers you are using, gdm or kdm?
my bad I see you are using kdm, ok, I'll be back with a set of commands and files you'll need to edit
OK, go to control center->system->login manager, click on modify, enter root password when prompted, go to Sessions tab New Type enter enlightenment click add button, Apply., button, exit from KDEc(or whatever desktop environment/window manager you are using), you'll be presented with KDE login, from pulldown menu choose enlightenment, enter user name and pass and you should be able to login to E.
Hope it works for you.
that didnt quite work... i did that and when i clicked enlightenment from the pulldown menu it went into KDE
I don't think RH 7.3 did either, I don't remember seeing it as an option when I installed 7.3
I guessthis is what u looking for

New CVD Risk Factors for Lowered Cognitive Functioning

|Study Type:
|Study Start Date:

|March 2007
|Primary Completion Date:
|March 2007 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure)
Arterial hypertension and high blood pressure (HBP) are major risk factors for cardiovascular disease (CVD) and stroke; they are also risk factors for lowered cognitive functioning. Except for diabetes, there have been comparatively few studies of other common risk factors, particularly with regard to interrelationships among risk factors which may adversely affect cognitive ability.
The study examines associations between cognitive functioning and three cardiovascular risk factors: 1) high blood pressure; 2) high total plasma homocysteine (tHcy), and 3) ApoE e4 genotype. These associations are examined cross-sectionally as well as longitudinally, using data collected at a follow-up visit of members of a cohort that has been followed for the past 18-19 years. Longitudinal data are used to examine both current and change in cognitive functioning. Some analyses are prospective (e.g., high blood pressure and change in cognitive functioning), while others are cross-sectional (e.g., ApoE e4 and current cognitive functioning) or retrospective (e.g., tHcy and change in cognitive functioning). Structural equation models are used to examine cross-sectional data in elucidating a general theoretical model. Two-stage growth curve analyses and survival analyses are appropriate methods for analyzing the longitudinal data. The study includes a very comprehensive set of measures that have already been collected or will be collected during the follow-up visit. All potential confounders of the association between the three target predictor variables and the various domains of cognitive functioning appear to have been included in this design.

GRANTS PASS, Ore. — Gov. Ted Kulongoski wants to head off recreational miners who are headed for "them thar hills" in Oregon after California stopped prospectors from using suction dredges to glean flecks of gold from salmon rivers.
The governor sent letters yesterday to Agriculture Secretary Tom Vilsack and Interior Secretary Ken Salazar asking them to impose what is known as a mineral withdrawal on federal lands surrounding the Kalmiopsis, Wild Rogue and Copper Salmon wilderness areas on the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest.
Conservation groups hope to meld the three wilderness areas and surrounding parts of southwestern Oregon into one big wilderness covering 1 million acres — a move Kulongoski has endorsed. Mining is restricted in the wilderness areas, but the mineral withdrawal would stop new claims in the areas surrounding them. The region includes portions of the Rogue, Illinois and Elk rivers.
The Siskiyou and Klamath mountains of southwestern Oregon were the site of Oregon's gold rush in the 1850s, and Kulongoski noted that the region has some of the best remaining salmon and steelhead habitat on the West Coast.
"With climate change increasing the pressures on plant and animal species, this area is a critical lifeboat providing intact habitat over a range of elevations from north to south," Kulongoski wrote. "We are very concerned the suction-dredge miners are heading for Oregon."
The governor's policy director, Mike Carrier, said conservation groups had been urging the governor to call for the mining ban, and he decided to act because of the potential for increased mining in the area causing harm before a formal wilderness designation is considered by Congress.
The area is just over the hill from Happy Camp in California, where mining on claims along the Klamath River owned by the New 49ers Prospecting Club was practically shut down in August. Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger signed legislation imposing a statewide moratorium until an environmental review determines how much harm the practice is doing to struggling salmon runs.
Joel King, Wild Rivers district ranger for the Rogue River-Siskiyou National Forest, said he had noticed an increase in recreational gold mining that he attributed to rising gold prices and the California dredge moratorium.
Gold prices reached a record $1,072 an ounce Wednesday.
"Just about anybody who was mining in Northern California has been looking at Oregon for the next season because it's being litigated in California right now and we don't know how that litigation will come out," said Mike Higbee, a Grants Pass gold miner and member of the New 49ers.
"If we are unable to overturn it before next season, it would only be a natural fact that California miners are going to be looking at Oregon — and Washington and Idaho."
Montine Blevins of the New 49ers said club President Dave McCracken has scouted out public-access mining locations in Oregon and shared the locations with club members, but he hasn't made new claims.
Higbee said he brought his dredge over from Happy Camp to state-controlled land on the Rogue River. There were 10 other miners from California working the river, he added.
"There are 3,000 licensed suction dredgers (in California) that they have never proved killed a fish," Higbee said. "They also have 3.2 million licensed fishermen, and their goal is to kill fish."
Gloria Forest of Sutherlin, treasurer of the Douglas County Prospectors Association, said prospectors regularly pull more lead fishing weights and other garbage out of rivers than gold.
Representatives from the departments of Interior and Agriculture said they had received the Kulongoski's letter and were reviewing it.

New London football falls to district leader
LISBON — The New London football offense was shut down by Lisbon, but the Tigers couldn't slow down the Lions in Friday's district matchup. Lisbon maintained its spotless district record with a 69-0 victory over New London.
Quincy Porter led New London with 42 rushing yards on the night and Tyler Shinkle picked up 32 yards. Matayo Christianer gained seven.
Tristan Kadel was 2-of-14 passing for 10 yards. Christianer had a 9-yard reception and Shinkle caught a 1-yard pass.
Christianer led the team with 13 tackles, while Kyle Oliver and Tyler Stevenson had eight tackles each. Oliver had the team's only tackle for loss and also recovered a fumble in the game.
New London is now 2-5 overall and 1-4 in district play. The Tigers host WACO this week. Kickoff is scheduled for 7 p.m.

More than 120,000 people have already seen Boyle's £27 million production, called Isles of Wonder, during two dress rehearsals this week, but the fact that they have refused en masse to leak any details of it has only added to the sense of excitement.
Last night the BBC was allowed to broadcast a 30-second clip of the ceremony, featuring modern dance and actors wearing illuminated wings, the first officially-sanctioned preview of the show.
But those who had been at the rehearsals said the clips gave little or no impression of the inventiveness and ambition Boyle has shown in tackling the world's biggest live broadcast event.
The entertainment for those in the stadium will begin with a Red Arrows fly-past at 8.12pm, and will feature live music, but for the global TV audience the main event starts at 9pm when Boyle's vision of rural Britain, complete with live sheep, goats, geese, cows and horses will finally be revealed.
Among the big names reported to be taking part in the ceremony are Daniel Craig, who is understood to have filmed a James Bond segment for the show and may be there in person, Kenneth Branagh, who will read lines from Shakespeare's The Tempest, and Sir Paul McCartney, one of several live musical acts, who will close the show.
Organisers of the opening ceremony said that even those who had been to the rehearsals had not yet seen a couple of "wow moments" that Boyle has held back, and no one had been given a sneak preview of the climactic moment when the Olympic cauldron is lit.
The identity of the person or people who will light the cauldron is such a closely-guarded secret that as late as Thursday it was thought they still had not been told.
Almost 100 heads of state and heads of government will descend on London for the opening ceremony, and have been invited to a reception at Buckingham Palace attended by the Queen.
Michelle Obama will represent her husband at the reception.
The Queen will officially declare the Games open at about 9.45pm, half way through Boyle's floor show, which will continue with dancing nurses, a depiction of the industrial revolution and a rendition of the Chariots of Fire film theme.
According to the Games organisers Locog, Boyle's risky decision to use live animals in the show has so far gone without a hitch. The 70 sheep have been kept in check by a sheepdog at all times, and there have been no problems with the geese, goats, horses or cows taking part.
Weather forecasters have even predicted that showers, which they had warned of earlier in the week, will not hit London during the opening ceremony, meaning conditions should be ideal.
Once Danny Boyle's show is over, the athletes will take centre stage as the parade of nations begins, led by Greece, the originator of the Games, as is traditional, and followed by 203 other nations, from Afghanistan to Zimbabwe, before Team GB brings up the rear, led out by flag-bearer Sir Chris Hoy.
The ceremony is expected to finish between midnight and 12.30am with a spectacular fireworks display.

OCM Presents: Shabaka And The Sons Of Kemet
"If there's a band which sums up how exciting the UK jazz scene is at the moment, it's Sons of Kemet. Headed up by BBC Radio 3 New Generation Artist Shabaka Hutchings (saxes), with two mighty and intricate drummers Tom Skinner and Seb Rochford, the quartet's unlikely line-up is topped by tuba star Oren Marshall. Expect idiosyncratic but danceable grooves, improvised twists and a passion and conviction which set this new band apart. Drawing on jazz tradition, Jamaican heritage and New Orleans street music."
Info provided by the Event Organiser
Sons Of Kemet
Sons of Kemet is the brainchild of young reeds player and Radio 3 New Generation Artist Shabaka Hutchings, whose ambition for this ensemble was to assemble the most unlikely of line-ups and allow them free rein for their distinct musical personalities to shine through.
The resultant music is loud, earthy, vital, and refreshingly rough-edged at times but surprisingly danceable; the two drummers spur off each others' energies and the tuba occupies a variety of roles from breathless walking bass to subtle, overdubbed layers of sound. Shabaka's plaintive tone and uncluttered compositions frame the sound. Shabaka Hutchings on clarinet and tenor saxophone. Oren Marshall on tuba and electronics. Seb Rochford and Tom Skinner on drums.

McCann's head clear after return
McCann's head clear after return to action
"I felt fine," McCann said. "I was just a little nervous. It felt like Opening Day. I hadn't had to sit out for seven days for a long time."
Before Monday, McCann had been sidelined since July 27, when a collision at the plate with Phillies outfielder Shane Victorino caused him to suffer a mild concussion. The previous time he was forced to miss more than a week was when an ankle injury put him on the disabled list in 2006.
The extended absence might have factored into the fact that McCann went hitless in three at-bats Monday. His most frustrating plate appearance came when he produced an infield pop fly with two outs and the bases loaded in the seventh inning.
"Once I start getting more at-bats, I start getting more comfortable and build confidence," McCann said.
In just his third full Major League season, McCann has already established himself as one of the game's top offensive catchers. Entering Tuesday, he led all Major League catchers with 20 homers and a .943 OPS (on-base percentage plus slugging percentage). His .300 batting average ranked third behind St. Louis' Yadier Molina ( .308) and Minnesota's Joe Mauer (.317).
Because of his position, McCann is obviously susceptible to getting his head jarred again. But he says that he hasn't allowed this possibility to bother him.
"I didn't think about that at all [Monday] and it won't bother me at all this season," McCann said. "If there's another play at the plate, I'll block the plate again and won't be scared. It was just a freak thing. It comes with playing the position."

OverviewMt. Bazarak is located on the western side of the Tochal ridgeline. A big part of the ridgeline starting from West Lezon on the east and ending to Mt. Bazarak on the west is higher than 3600m. There are many ways to get to this mountain. The easiest way (specially for lazy people like myself) is to take the gondola, and go to the 7th station of the Tochal telecabin (3730m), and start hiking to the west toward Mt. Shah-neshin. After you reach to the end of the Shah-neshin ridge, the direction changes toward northwest. Just keep going on the ridge till you get to Bazarak peak.
The eastern side of Mt. Bazarak and the northern side of Mt. Shah-neshin have very nice slopes. The area has a huge potential to be one the greatest ski resorts in the world. The slopes go all the way down to the village of Shahrestanak. The Tochal ski area can also be connected to these slopes so the total vertical elevation change can be around 1650m (from 3850m to 2200m).
Unfortunately, the weather condition was very hazy, so the mountains in the distance were either invisible or barely visible.
Getting ThereThe easiest way is to go to the end of Velenjak Ave. in northern Tehran and ride the gondola, and go to the 7th station, and start from there.
The village of Shahrestanak or the village of Emamzadeh Davood could be the starting points too.

Police Still Seek Suspect In East Flatbush Murder
Police from the 63rd Precinct have circulated a "wanted" poster seeking information on the whereabouts of Pierre Carrenard, 35, who allegedly stabbed his ex-girlfriend's mother to death in her East Flatbush apartment last week. He also slashed her 16-year-old niece and killed her small dog. In the Daily News report last Friday police said that Carrenard might have fled to the South, but didn't indicate what state. He may have been driving an aquamarine Lexus with New York license plates, they said.
The murder took place when Car-renard apparently went on a rampage inside 976 East 43rd Street, near Avenue N, the home of the victim, Mrs. Esperance Labidou, 53, around noon on Tuesday, August 9, police said. He had broken up with Francois MacDaly, 25, a few months previously and had, according to neighbors and witnesses, apparently been stalking her ever since. Apparently the woman's niece had come upon the grisly scene when she went to check on the commotion. She was treated at Kings County Hospital and pronounced in stable condition.
Reports indicated that, after the stabbing, Carrenard took the victim's cell phone and, in front of the apartment, made threatening phone calls to MacDaly and other relatives. He then fled in the Lexus.
Anyone with information is asked to call the 63rd Precinct Detective Squad at (718) 258-4401 or Crime Stoppers at 1-800-577-TIPS. All calls will be kept confidential.

My pleasure, Annie. Spring's right around the corner, won't be long.
Such a glorious scene, Tex. Thanks for brightening everyone's winter blues...............
Thanks, Laura. I agree about the grass being greener somewhere else. However, it seems that every year here in Texas it's hotter longer! I long for some really cold and snowy weather for awhile.
California's climate is monotonous, so when we moved here I started enjoying the various seasons. But after nearly 10 years, it's "too hot" in the summer and "too cold" in the winter! Sort of like a "grass is always greener" syndrome. lol Great photo by the way!
We need one of those countdown clocks in the corner of our screen. Everyone's waiting for spring, but I love winter, too. Thanks, Pkin.
Yes 46 days until spring
Thank you, Chickiemama, Jcarroll & Fileusa! Spring is on the way and will be beautiful!
Must say what a beautiful photo.! And what a lovely place with all these trees in blossom.
Beautiful, Tex! I'm ready to take spring pictures!
Dogwood and Redbud. How much better can it get?
MR, that's exactly how I feel. And Fodus, you're smart to do that, soon we'll all be outside doing stuff in our yards! Ank, that was a lifting little song, and I love Tulpen! Thanks, Maryrob, Ank, Fodus, Franneke, Lauralyn & Patti. Glad you stopped in.
This is so beautiful,thanks Texas.I love spring,it's that thing called SUMMER that I am not keen on!!!
Beautiful, lovely spring. It's an old Dutch song: When spring comes, I send you tulips from Amsterdam.: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=85U-77_5lWkThe song is about 55 years old, always when I hear, or read "when spring comes" I have to think of it. I had been in hospital and when I got home I got the record of my parents.
This is a neat picture with the contrasts. I am waiting for Spring, too, but I know there are more than 6 weeks before we get Spring weather, so am doing winter jobs that I don't have time to do later.
Roll on that season. Thanks TS
very pretty!
Oooh, sooo lovely! Thank you, TS! Looking forward to spring! :)

Where has all the respect gone in the CFL?
It seems players are quick throw a few jabs at fellow players and even fans, now.
This weekend, there were too many examples of low blows, with Shea Emry taking the cake.
The Montreal Alouettes linebacker is getting a reputation as a hard-nosed player who occasionally crosses the line. Now, he's gone below the waistline.
Emry was kicked out of Saturday's game against the Saskatchewan Roughriders for punching lineman Brendon LaBatte in the groin.
While Emry's actions can be explained as heat of the trench battle, there isn't much to explain what Ricky Foley stirred up on his Twitter feed on Monday (see Tweet of the Week).
For a team that has lost every game on a three-game homestand, Argos players shouldn't be calling out whatever supporters they have, even if they are frustrated, at this point.
The fact Foley followed up calling out fans a few weeks after bashing TSN analyst Milt Stegall shows his own frustration, but some things should be kept to himself.
Twitter is an outlet that can get misused easily. Of course, there is no explaining B.C. Lions defensive tackle Khalif Mitchell and his offensive racial slur last week.
Mitchell has vowed to stay off Twitter until after the Grey Cup, which might be the smartest thing he's done all year.

Police: Bieber to be prosecuted
LOS ANGELES, March 30 (UPI) -- Los Angeles County Sheriff's Department officials say they will recommend charges be filed against pop star Justin Bieber for allegedly spitting on a neighbor.
Bieber's neighbor in a posh, gated community in Calabasas, Calif., filed a police report Tuesday accusing the teen idol of battery.
The battery allegedly happened during a dispute with a neighbor who criticized Bieber for recklessly speeding in his Ferrari through the neighborhood while children were playing and people were walking their dogs, TMZ said.
The sheriff's department said it will refer the case to the district attorney for review, after which the department will recommend Bieber is charged with criminal battery, TMZ reported.
TMZ didn't name the man who filed the police report.
China to get extended 'Iron Man 3'
LOS ANGELES, March 30 (UPI) -- Marvel Studios announced footage will be added to the Chinese release of "Iron Man 3," a departure from the country's usual practice of censoring U.S. films.
Marvel, in a joint statement with Chinese media company DMG, said Friday special bonus footage will be in the Chinese version of the film, along with an appearance by Chinese actress Fan Bingbing.
The edits are meant to make the superhero film more appealing to Chinese audiences, with parts of the movie shot in Beijing, the Los Angeles Times reported Friday. Chinese actor Wang Xueqi also appears in the film as a character named Dr. Wu.
"Iron Man 3" isn't the first film to be tailored to appeal to Chinese audiences. Last year's "Looper" included an extended segment during the portion of the film that was set in Shanghai, the Times reported.
Smokey Robinson signs with Verve
HOLLYWOOD, March 30 (UPI) -- Motown singer-songwriter Smokey Robinson has signed with Verve Music Group to release his 29th album, a collection of duets, the label announced.
"From the early 60s to this very day, you can turn on a radio anywhere in the world and hear his music. Smokey Robinson's contributions to the world of music as a performer, producer and songwriter are nothing short of a 'miracle,'" producer David Foster said -- referring to Robinson's former Motown group, The Miracles.
Robinson's album is scheduled to be released in the fall. It will feature classics including "My Girl," "Cruisin' " and "The Tears of a Clown," The Hollywood Reporter said Friday.
Robinson appeared Wednesday and Thursday on "American Idol," where he challenged contestants to perform songs by artists from the Detroit area, where Motown was born.
Broderick tapped for CBS comedy pilot
HOLLYWOOD, March 30 (UPI) -- U.S. actor Matthew Broderick will star in a CBS pilot for a comedy written by "Scrubs" and "Spin City" producer Tad Quill, The Hollywood Reporter said.
The untitled comedy features Broderick as a recently widowed father of a 12-year-old boy. The character is urged back into the dating pool by his son and a colleague, the entertainment industry publication reported Friday.
Quill will write and executive produce the comedy, while James Burrows will direct.
Broderick is currently on Broadway starring in the musical "Nice Work If You Can Get It." He most recently appeared on television in guest spots on "Modern Family," "Louie" and "30 Rock."

Lisa's Pizza is among Milwaukee's best
Admittedly, I'm a sucker for both family-owned and hole-in-the wall restaurants, so I wasn't too surprised that I enjoyed Lisa's Fine Foods (a.k.a. Lisa's Pizza), 2961 N. Oakland Ave., a tiny, 41-year-old pizzeria and basic Italian restaurant tucked just north of the busy intersection of Locust Street and Oakland Avenue.
With dinnertime conversation and a somewhat dated (or should I say classic?) jukebox as the only background noise, expect Lisa's to be quiet until about 8 p.m. when the two- and four-tops suddenly swarm with eastside regulars.
Lisa's pizza is among Milwaukee's more enjoyable, with a light, flaky, layered, thin crust and sauce with just a hint of garlic. An extra large deluxe ($22) is 22 inches and served in a rectangular pan with generous toppings of onions, green peppers, savory pepperoni, Italian sausage and black olives. The pizza has a unique lightness to it which allows you to eat a piece or two more than you normally would, and it is nearly devoid of grease.
In addition to basic selections, diners can also select shrimp, broccoli and some other less familiar toppings like tuna to spice up their pizza experience, or opt for the thicker crust instead of the basic thin.
Appetizers at Lisa's are standard basic Italian, with a large Italian salad ($8) big enough to serve three.Simple iceberg lettuce was dressed up with tomatoes, cucumbers, black olives and a good vinaigrette and served with an Italian bread basket. We also sampled a fried combination of cauliflower, mushrooms and eggplant ($6) that was average, but as usual, works well as a starter for a homemade pizza.
Entrées at Lisa's aren't as good as the pizza, but are reasonably priced; spedini at $17 as the most expensive menu item (and that includes salad).The spedini arrived a bit heavier with seasoned breadcrumbs than I would have preferred, but the steak was tender, and when dipped into the marinara in my accompanying side of linguine was a comforting dinner selection (the spedini arrives plated with fries with the pasta on the side).
Lasagna ($10, also with salad) takes about 25 minutes to prepare and features more of the basic, but delicious marinara coupled with very cheesy lasagna noodles. My dining companion commented on the small amount of meat within, but given the price, the serving was generous and well worth the cost.
Service at Lisa's is casual and friendly, and the space is easily worked by one or two waitresses, whom we found to be very friendly and prompt on both of our recent visits. And while the dining room is abuzz, Lisa's also does a fairly busy carryout business during the evenings, which keeps the staff hopping. But, after 41 years, Lisa's seems to have the pizzeria dine-in, carryout, delivery system to a science.
rpnzl2step | Jan. 31, 2009 at 6:04 p.m. (report)
After 25 years of eating at Lisa's, I'm sad to say I've been there for my last time. We were there for a family celebration on a recent weeknight. Ended up sitting for over an hour waiting for our food while watching tables around us, including those who had shown up after we did, get their food. To add insult to injury, when our food did finally hit the table, the cook had failed in his attempt to cover cold pasta with hot red sauce. We asked to speak to the manager, who declined our summons, but instead sent the waitress out with an offer to get another, warmer order of food. And wait another hour? No thanks. Perhaps I'll order their pizza for delivery sometime (thin crust is unbeatable) but I'll never take a seat in the restaurant again.

IMHO, I would choose Zaffiro's over Lisa's for thin-crust (on the Eastside) and Palermo Villa for thick(er) crust.

Glad to see props to Lisa's! It's always been fantastic and is one of my favorite little restaurants anywhere in the country. Out-of-town friends that I've brought there always wish there was one in their hometown, and I've always held it up as the standard for thin crust Milwaukee pizza. Thanks for reviewing them!

When a top Iranian source reveals that Iran is planning to bomb the United Nations, U.S. Intelligence begins counter-measures. Only Kealey sees it as a smokescreen for another, far more involved plot. But getting anyone to believe him isn't going to be easy. With only his ally, London's newest assistant chief, Naomi Kharmai, by his side, Ryan will have to operate outside the lines in order to prevent a terrible attack in a city on lockdown.
A weapon of catastrophic power has been stolen from war-torn Iraq and has made its way to the U.S. The man who has it is Kealey's nemesis, William Vanderveen, an international criminal mastermind who has no objective other than pure terror and who will stop at nothing to achieve it. Making matters worse, Vanderveen's being helped by someone on the inside with high ranking security clearance. Even the halls of the CIA are no longer safe from possible espionage and treason. Now, as Kealey and Kharmai race to put the pieces together, they will confront a ghost from the past and be forced to question the people they trust most in a desperate investigation where only this is for certain - time is running out.

"Great story. Well done"
I loved the characters and the development they showed as the book progressed. All of this can be expected from an Andrew Britton.
"Could have been great"
Unfortunately, the author ruined what could have been a great story. The book continues on for 45 min after the story (1st and 2nd book) ends poorly.
I was really looking forward to the third book until the conclusion of this 2nd book
Not this 2nd book but yes regarding the 1st book.
"great conclusion for this book"
Yes, but the first book is essential to listen to
Naomi Carmine. Love the drive she has
A great talent, he gives the characters life.
Revenge is coming
"Mixed thoughts on this one"
Most novels need to set up the story, but I found this one to be more like a documentary. With that being said, the last 1/4 of the book was a real page turner. I really enjoyed it If you like espionage suspense you'll enjoy this one.

This week we will not see series of swells, but rather, a series of swell "episodes". At least that's what the National Weather Service is calling it. A fitting word, as a number of smaller events will take place this week, all of them dramatic in some relative sense, and all of them adding to the greater whole: the swells and their aftermath.
First things first. All good episodes have hype.
Ah yes, the hype. Its machinery, in full swing since last week when my inbox was filled with three separate surf forecasting emails urging me to "call in sick", is steaming right along–faster than the swell that is producing it. My Grandfather knows about this swell and he's been dead for five years (may he rest in peace). I haven't heard this much hype, rumor and innuendo since the last Seinfeld. It too was an episode. This week is going to be epic. At least that's what I've been told. Of course, as I write this, the swell hasn't even arrived in California.
Already we've had a few dramatic days in the Hawaiian Islands: Lots of Waimea Bay rescues on Saturday, outer reef tow sessions, and a well known PWC driver who ran over his tow partner putting him in the hospital with broken ribs. There was also rumor of a surfer (green board) paddling-in at Outer Log Cabins. Kam Highway had massive spillovers in the early Saturday morning hours at Haliewa, Puena Point, Laniakea, Chuns Reef, Log Cabins and other known North Shore low points. "The Big Island," I was told by a friend in the lineup, "is all-time." And perhaps you caught a glimpse of frothy Honolua Bay while watching the golf tournament on ESPN.
In California, on a Sunday afternoon, we wait. And the hype rolls on. On the SURFER Magazine bulletin board guys are chimming in about waxing up their 9′ 6″ guns for Swamis (paleeeze). Rumors about huge Maverick's are heard in parking lots and in-between waist high set waves at Rincon. A hush-hush story about an upcoming violent showdown at Todos Santos has made the rounds.
It is all very dramatic, very "episodic" sounding.
The Granddaddy of them all: True drama at Cortes Bank. Rumor is that Hawaiian tow teams such as Garrett McNamara's are heading over to ride 100-foot waves at Cortes Bank. Conventional wisdom amongst the tow-in sect tells them to go to Cortes. Don't waste your time at Mavs or Jaws. Cortes Bank is where the Billabong XXL wave-and therefore money-will be bagged. It may actually be crowded out there this week. Billabong's $60K prize has a way of mobilizing the men.
High pressure, albeit weak, is forecast for the entire week. Weak high pressure is a sketchy thing, especially 100 miles out to sea. Imagine being in a 55-foot boat in 18 foot seas with a 30 knot wind. No land in sight. An eight hour trip becomes eighteen. Fuel consumption skyrockets. It will be work-with a capital "W".
Another rumor I've heard is that two or three crews are going to fly out to Cortes in a pontooned helicopter. The Malloys or the Longs…again, this is just parking lot BS, I have no sources. I heard it from a friend of a friend of a photographer–pure rumor.
But it wouldn't surprise me. Something dramatic is going to happen in the big wave arena this week. I just hope it isn't tragic drama. That's an episode we could do without.

Can I suggest something?
As an end user I actually like them. I just ask that groups stay away from using green and red. 5% of the world's population is red/green colourblind (like myself) so green text dissappears into red backgrounds and vice versa. I tend to remux where possible stuff I d/l but hardsubbed it's a bit difficult. As a side note Blue yellow and purple are the rarest forms.

So that karaoke softsubs could be switched off without switching off the subbed translation itself. In a sense, so that it becomes an optional extra. As I say, though, this is probably a pipedream.

As far as I know though, fancy karaoke can't really be done softsubbed (this is foreign territory to me, so shoot me down if I'm wrong) and that's what I was thinking of when I said "softsubbed karaoke". I know that multisub is an option (one that's very unused, in fact), but it would only really allow basic styling and .ass tsing (afaik).

you can easily make a pretty nice softsubbed karaoke if you know what you are doing. also the tsing can pretty much be as advanced as you want it to be. in the entire time i've tsed i've only had to get a sign hardsubbed once

OP/ED Karoke as softsubs would be cool. If softsub kara can eliminate badly done AE karaoke (Nodame Special ), i'm all for it!
I think all groups should at least provide softsubbed karaoke for all insert songs, because flashy hardsubbed karaoke within the episode/dialogue is really distracting.
Does anyone know what processor power would one need to play back a simple {\k..} karaoke anyway?

Chalk one more up in the neutral column. It's very rare that I actually watch the op/ed segments anyways. I think Aria is the only show that I've actually watched every opening because they're all different and related to that particular episode.

Tbh, i'm a fan of simple \k karaoke. If the font choice is good and the colours as well, there's nothing to complain about (and if it's softsubbed, you could even adjust those to your liking).
So i have to agree with Daiz, softsubbed karaoke would be great.
Some people assume that nice karaoke means quality, some could care less (like me). Softsubbed \k style karaoke would be easy to make, faster (you don't need to encode it) and has all the advantages of softsub. Karaokestyler could still show of their skills with PVs

I don't have a problem with karaoke-effects unless:
1. The lyrics are wrong, which often happens during the first few episodes an opening or ending is used, before the official lyrics become available. Dattebayo is particularly bad at this, where I've actually experienced that I've made a better guess at the lyrics than they did, and I hardly know anything at all about japanese grammar.
2. They're too flashy, like in the second opening in One Piece, where there was a scene where the subtitles literarily flew all across the entire screen, spinning around. They were completely unreadable, which completely defeats the purpose of having them there in the first place.
So yeah, I don't mind karaoke when it's done right, but I'd be just as happy without them. It's not like the lack of a karaoke-track has ever made me think "I am not going to buy this DVD because it lacks fancy karaoke-subtitles!!!!" or anything.

For the soft-\k topic, playback of plain \k or \kf should not take any additional CPU over what it takes to render a fully static line every frame. VSFilter uses a trick inside the rasteriser to switch over between different colours inside a scanline, it simply calculates "at pixel 342 switch to a different colour for fill" which is pretty much no slowdown at all. (If anyone have read Rasterizer.cpp that's what the 'switchpts' array does.)
Another trick that allows a bit more fancy soft karaoke is actually to split it into several smaller lines that each have a very simple effect. More effects clumped together on one line tends to slow things down a lot.

We don't do karaoke. We don't do 80,000 colours and sizes and positions when it comes to dialogue. We have lives and jobs and better uses of our time. Which reminds me, I need to check my rice...

I love and hate making karaoke, but it's a good training for a non-creative person as me learn to be creative, learn how to go from an idea to realisation, and this may sound weird, but how to 'organize' that idea in steps (my head is chaotic, there's no start.. there's no end.. frankly, creating a karaoke/painting/whatever doesnt work the same way).
Also, i've never really liked going for the minimalistic approach, it's like studying just enough to get a 6/10. If you do something.. do it good or don't do it at all.

I'd suggest doing something actually creative if you want to learn how to be creative... Styling karaoke isn't exactly what I'd call "creative work".
Also, in my opinion, you are free to do as styled karaoke as you want, as long as it can be turned off. There's already an explanation on how this can be achieved with hardsubbed karaoke in this thread.

Check out Autism Speaks Guide for IEPs – click here.
This short list of questions may help you prepare for your IEP meetings…
Autism Questionnaire To: Parents of Preschoolers with Autism from: Lisa Nelson, M.A., CCC/SLP
Autistic Spectrum Disorder is the term currently being used by many professionals to describe children who have similarities in the way they understand the world and process information. These children have difficulties in communication, social interaction and play. Labels are nothing more than a ticket to service – we do not treat labels, we treat children. Your child is more than his/her "label", and you need to get to know his or her unique patterns of strengths and needs if you are to become an effective advocate for education, therapy and treatment services. You are the expert. You know your child best, care about his/her quality of life, and are the most important person in your child's life.
In order to help you prepare to communicate about your child with members of the interdisciplinary team (teachers, occupational therapists, physical therapists, speech pathologists, psychologists, doctors), please try to organize answers to the following questions:
- What are the most motivating things for your child – what do they like or show an interest in? (Think about foods, toys, people, actions or activities).
- How does your child seem to learn best – by looking and watching? By listening? By moving? Be able to describe the way you think your child learns things.
- Does your child seem to be overly-sensitive to specific things, for example, sounds, movement, touch, light, smells, tastes? Is there something your child dislikes or avoids because he/she may be overly sensitive to it?
- When does your child seek you out to start an interaction – when hungry, thirsty, upset, needing help?
- What reasons does your child want to interact with you or with others – to get attention, to show you something, to get something they want, or to express feelings?
- How does your child communicate with you – by crying or screaming, using gestures like pointing, pushing or pulling you, looking at wanted items, making sounds, pointing to objects or pictures, saying words? There are so many ways that children communicate – both verbally (with words) and non-verbally (without saying anything – just using facial expressions, gestures, eye gaze). Try to list the ways that your child communicates with you.
- Does your child have particular dislikes or things they avoid? It might be hard to understand what your child has strong reactions to, and why. Try to make a list of dislikes and avoidances. These can help the team figure out the "why."
- Do you notice any unusual patterns of behavior – doing things over and over again, repeating whatever is a heard, narrow interest in play, repetitive movements?
- What does your child understand? Can they follow directions? If so, give an example of a direction the child follows most of the time.
- Do you think there is a hearing problem, and if so, have you had hearing tested?
- What would you like your child to learn how to do – in the next month, six months, and year?
- What is the most important thing you would like others to know about your child?

ATLANTA, Feb. 28 (UPI) -- A former Georgia state trooper has been charged with homicide by vehicle for a New Year's Eve crash that killed the wife of the Atlanta Braves head trainer.
A grand jury in Fulton County handed up an indictment Wednesday that also charged Donald Crozier with reckless driving and violation of oath by a police officer, The Atlanta Journal-Constitution reported. Crozier, who was on duty on Dec. 31, 2011, when he hit the car driven by Jeff Porter, the head athletic trainer for the Braves, was dismissed from the state police afterwards.
Porter, his wife, Kathy, their son and a friend were on their way to the Chick-fil-A Bowl at the Georgia Dome when Crozier hit them. Kathy Porter, 54, was pronounced dead at the scene while the others in the car were injured.
Investigators said Crozier, who was responding to a call, had his lights and siren on. But they found he did not reduce his speed enough at the intersection to ensure the way was clear.

TORONTO — The Canadian Football League announced today that it has suspended Toronto Argonauts linebacker Brandon Isaac for one game for an illegal hit on Saskatchewan Roughriders quarterback Darian Durant during last Saturday's game.
The decision to suspend Isaac was made following a hearing held earlier today with the player and CFL Commissioner Mark Cohon.
Isaac has been previously fined twice for illegal hits this season.


text: In a thrilling three-horse finish, Beacon Shine was all out to win the $105,100 Flash Stakes (gr. III) Friday at Belmont Park."They were 'ding-donging' there, and if they were going farther than five furlongs, I probably wouldn't have liked it too much," said winning trainer Bill Mott.The Florida-bred Beacon Shine broke like a bullet under Javier Castellano from the outside in the five-horse field and was quickly joined by Speed of Sound and John Velazquez. The two were quickly in front of their competitors through a quarter in :21.87 and a half in :45.21. Down the stretch, Speed of Sound was on the rail and Beacon Shine on the outside. Beacon Sound went in front, but Speed of Sound kept on battling.As they roared down the lane, Richard Migliore began to move Union Course outside of them and made a huge move as the wire neared. It appeared Speed of Sound got his head in front briefly, but as the three hit the line together, Beacon Shine got the win. The photo revealed he just narrowly did, with Union Course second and Speed of Sound third. Three noses separated them at the wire."The first time watching this race (replay) I thought the inside horse (Speed of Sound) won," Mott said. "The second time I saw it, I thought the outside horse (Union Course) won."Beacon Shine was making his third start for George Steinbrenner's Kinsman Stable. He broke his maiden in the mud at Keeneland and then ran a solid third behind the talented but recently injured Half Ours in the Three Chimneys Juvenile on the Kentucky Derby (gr. I) undercard. The $64,260 winning share pushed his career earnings to $101,680."This is the two-year-old type," said Mott, known for patience with young horses. "He's probably the first one I've had like this in a while. He's bred to be rapid. He's built that way and he is. He is a fun horse. We have no plans at this time. We'll wait and see how he is."By Montbrook, out of the Valid Appeal mare Unlimited Pleasure, Beacon Shine was bred by Ocala Stud Farm. He ran the distance in :58.39 and paid $6.60, $3.70 and $2.10. Union Course returned $6.50 and $2.10 and 7-10 favorite Speed of Sound was worth $2.10."I had a lot of confidence in the horse," said Castellano, the only rider Beacon Shine has had. "The first time, he was very impressive. The second time, he had a trouble trip at Churchill Downs. It was Kentucky Derby day and he was nervous because there were a lot of people in the paddock. He settled down good today. He was very relaxed. I knew I had to beat Speed of Sound. I did it. I put my horse right on him."Speed of Sound, according to trainer Steve Kelsaris, bumped into the starting gate coming away. "That was a great horse race," Klesaris said. "I think if he had gotten away a little cleaner, it would have helped. When I watched the head-on, it looked like he slammed his shoulder on the side of the gate. In three strides, he was right in the game." Added Velazquez about Speed of Sound: "He ran hard. He put his toes down in the gate and wasn't standing properly. The gate opened and he hit it coming out. He ran big and put up a good fight."Speed of Sound's stablemate, Master of Disaster, was scratched. Outsider Tompest and debuting Mister Zee trailed.(Chart, Equibase)

It was such a gorgeous day, I couldn't resist the idea of a brunch on that patio. We arrived at 10am, a few other diners there. Patio is great, even though it sits on Ventura Blvd, it's not that noisy. It's really nice to sit there on a warmish day and watch the world go by.
Food was average. Latte was one of the worst ones I have ever had and it wasn't very hot. I had Lemon Ricotta Hotcakes that were served with bacon or sausage. I had bacon and it was bad, and I love bacon, I live for bacon and will usually enjoy most bacons but this one was just totally overdone. The ricotta cakes were very nice, thin, crispy and flavorful. Hubby had an omlette with steak, mushrooms and tomatos. He liked it. Toast he had with it was good.
I can't get over how a place open for breakfast can have such bad coffee and bad bacon, I mean those are breakfast staples.
Hubby wants to go back, I don't.

Even Google needs a makeover sometimes.
The Internet giant unveiled a new logo Tuesday that is tailored for all the different sizes and types of devices its programs can be used on. The logo it has been using was created solely for a desktop PC and needed an update, according to a post on the official Google blog.
The new theme will include elements like a multicolor mic for Google Talk and will replace the lowercase "g" logo with an uppercase colorful "G," the company said in the post.
Google has changed its branding a few times in the last 17 years, and is trying to keep up as its users evolve to new platforms like touchscreens and voice commands.
If you haven't noticed a change yet, "You'll see the new design roll out across our products soon," Google said in the blog post.

The Games We Play
This week I was tagged (yes, again)...twice...so this is my attempt to catch up.I was tagged with the same game, by different bloggers with different questions and a slight variation in rules. I have taken the liberty to combine the tags.
Thank you Brenda Youngerman of Fiction with a Purpose, and Angie of Angels are Kids and Furkids.
Here are the rules:
1. You must post the rules.
2. List eleven things about yourself.
3. Answer the questions the tagger set for you in their post, and then create eleven new questions to ask the people that you have tagged.
4. Tag eleven people and link to them on your post.
5. Let them know you've tagged them!
Eleven Things about Myself:
1.I have no depth perception.
2. I am afraid of spiders.
3. Bill & I lived in and traveled in an old van as newlyweds. We did this for several months, traveling 13 states. My old dog, Velvet, was our fearless companion.
4. I have a weakness for chocolate chip/mint ice cream.
5. I do not drink alcohol. I am a big milk drinker, though!
6. A prized possession of mine is my great-grandparents original wedding portrait. It is in the original frame, with the original glass, 24" x 27". They were married August 5, 1891.
7. I am very sensitive.
8. The only sports I follow are football & NASCAR.
9. I was going to be a storm tracker in the Navy, before finding out my health was not good.
10. I am extremely practical and simple (but not simple minded).
11.I have never been outside the (mainland) United States.
Questions for Me: by Brenda:
1. Wine or beer? Neither; make mine coffee, tea or water.
2. Hot or cold? Cold!
3. Black or white? I am definitely grey .
4. Spring or fall? Fall. I find it to be a very reflective time; and the cool weather is such a relief after summer's heat. The colours, football, NASCAR Chase, all make it exciting.
5. AC or windows? Windows whenever possible! If it is hot, AC whenever possible. I have asthma.
6. Heater or fire? Fire; I like the natural things when possible.
7. Carpet or hardwood? Hardwood! It is natural, and easier with pet hair! Just sayin'.
8. Roses or Tulips? I like both, but probably roses a little more. But I like Mums and Angel Wing Begonias even more.
9. Dog or cat? Seriously, Brenda? BOTH!! I don't talk about Polly, my old Coydog much, because it is hard to. She is almost 17, and I am afraid of jinxing her. When we lost Wiley & then Maisie, two months apart, two years ago, it was devastating. They were 16. I am very protective of Polly, and afraid of losing her...don't go there...
10. Curtains or shades? Curtains are more open, inviting, free.
11. Shoes or barefoot? Barefoot...well actually, socks. I am really a socks person: thick, comfy socks. My feet & ankles being so messed up, shoes kill me. I just don't get you "shoe people"! I'm not judging (Hilary, *LOL*)...if it's your thing, go for it!
Questions for Me: by Angie:
1. Do you have a favourite book? If so, which one? Books are my favourite! I have many, many favorites. One longtime favourite is "The Prophet", by Kahlil Gibran. I first read it when I was 15. I have 3 copies of it, and it is on my Kobo (don't laugh; I want a colour Nook...any donations will be happily accepted *lol*).
2. Where do you think your love of reading stems from? Or how did you come to love reading? I remember learning to read! My first official word to read aloud, in school, was "look". I was exhilarated! I felt there was power in reading! I could do it anywhere. It satisfied my curiosity and my craving for knowledge, at the same time. There was no stopping me!
3. When you have "down time" what do you enjoy doing the most? I savour every moment spent with my husband. I always have. Anything with him is the best, be it watching TV (especially football & NASCAR), fishing, talking, whatever...it's my favourite time. We were platonic friends for years before he convinced me it should be more...but that's another story.
4. Would you ever own a black vehicle? No; nor would I own a white one. Too hard to keep clean, never looks right to me. One exception: Dale Earnhardt's #3 Goodwrench Chevy.
5. What is your favourite animal? Why? I dearly love all critters. Yes, all. I do have a special fondness for Sandhill Crane. Bill even brought me some Sandhill Crane items from China, when he went there on business trips years ago. I adore them. However, there is an animal that I feel a spiritual connection to: the Coyote. I believe it is misunderstood. I also have a deep respect and admiration for it, for its ability to survive alongside of & in spite of man.
6. Do you have an author whose work you read, no matter what? Yes, because they are always great! Some are: the insightful Brenda Youngerman (a review this week!), awesome Lesley Kagen, talented Sandra Kring, sensible Sherri Wood Emmons, creative Sarah Addison Allen, & the entertaining Bob Tarte all come to mind. But there are also some that I eagerly anticipate more books from, having written one book so far: beautiful soul Beth Hoffman, amazing Amy Greene, perceptive Lori Roy, sensitive Anna Jean Mayhew, significant Michelle Hoover, and genuine Gin Phillips all come to mind. There are more; I just can't name them all!!
7. If you could be a superhero, which one? I have no idea. I'm not into fantasy or sci-fi or that kind of thing. If I had a super power, I would choose to be able to fly. I have such a problem with my joints and walking, etc., that to be able to fly would be such a freeing experience. Wow.
8. If you could have any house, money being no object, what would you build or buy? It would be a log cabin, with a big wrap-around porch, on Lake Superior, in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan.
9. What state have you always wanted to visit? Alaska! I would love to see their wild frontier, go whale-watching, experience their natural unspoiled beauty.
10. What's your favourite movie? I am not a big movie watcher. I like Christmas movies (A Christmas Story, Elf, A Gift of Love, etc.) and old movies (The Caine Mutiny, Angels with Dirty Faces, Dark Victory), and animated movies (Up, Muppets, Monsters, Inc.), to give some examples. I look forward to the upcoming movie The Lorax! It's my favourite Suess story! (I have an active, though secret, inner child. Shhh!)
11. What is your ritual when you settle in to read? All chores must be done. All critters must be cared for. No distractions! I like to be comfy, with a soft blanket or throw. Then I usually climb into my big recliner...followed by a cat or two.
My Questions for Those I Tag:
1. What is your favourite childhood story?
2. What was your first vehicle?
3. What or who was the first concert you attended?
4. How old were you when you had your first kiss?
5. Do you have any tattoos? If so, what?
6. If you don't have tattoos, do you want any? If so, what?
7. What time do you usually get up?
8. What is your bedtime routine?
9. What is your "irrational" fear?
10. If you could go anywhere, to where would it be?
11. What is your favourite snack?

Steve Chiotakis: The state of Colorado today will decide whether to make energy companies list all the chemicals they use to do hydraulic fracturing for natural gas. But environmentalists want them to disclose much more.
From the Marketplace sustainability desk, Eve Troeh reports.
Eve Troeh: In public meetings, oil and gas companies say hydraulic fracturing does not pose significant risk. But Dusty Horwitt at the Environmental Working Group just led a six-month investigation on what those companies tell their investors. He found a different story.
Dusty Horwitt: Here you have them disclosing a long list of risks to shareholders. Very severe risks: Leaks, spills, explosions, limited insurance coverage, bodily injury, death.
The law requires companies to list the most significant risks to their bottom line, in annual financial reports. Horwitt says if shareholders are being warned, then landowners signing over their rights should be warned, too.
Michael Giberson is with the Center for Energy Commerce at Texas Tech. He says this isn't a case of investors getting special treatment.
Michael Giberson: I think that that's kind of a stretch, to try to make something out of this. You know the information about the risk is sort of widely available and known.
And he says the risks explained in financial reports are broad. Anyone approached by a drilling company should study the specific risks for themselves.
I'm Eve Troeh for Marketplace.
