A Chancery Court lawsuit has been filed against the City Industrial Development Board (Bond Board) seeking information on a legal opinion involving tax increment financing (TIF) for a major project on Aetna Mountain.
The lawsuit was filed by retired planner Helen Burns Sharp, who has been closely following the TIF application and who opposed it at several public meetings.
The City Council, County Commission and Bond Board approved a $9 million TIF for the Black Creek group that plans a major residential development with a town center on the huge tract above Cummings Cove in Lookout Valley.
The Bond Board approved the TIF with the stipulation that a legal opinion be issued stating that the Black Creek group request met state requirements for TIFs.
TIFs allow a developer to issue bonds that are later paid off through a portion of the taxes generated by the project. The Black Creek group said if the project fails to generate the taxes, then it would be required to repay the funds.
The suit, filed by attorney John Konvalinka, says Ms. Sharp on Nov. 6 asked for public records related to the legal opinion. It says Ms. Sharp was provided a copy of a letter dated Oct. 31, 2012, from George H. Masterson of Bass, Berry & Sims, an attorney for the Black Creek group.
The complaint says a second request for records was sent Dec. 5, 2012, to City Attorney Mike McMahan. The suit says there was no response to this request.
The suit says Ms. Sharp then sent letters to individual members of the Bond Board asking if they had gotten any correspondence about the Black Creek TIF.
On Dec. 12, 2012, Ms. Sharp was provided a second letter from the firm of Bass, Berry & Sims, it was stated.
She said she was told by City Attorney McMahan that any other documents related to the TIF were subject to attorney-client privilege.
Another request for records relating to the TIF was sent Jan. 9. The suit says there has been no response to this request.
Attorney Konvalinka said all of the requested records fall under the Tennessee Open Records Act.
He said the city "has willfully refused to disclose the public records requested by Petitioner, even though Respondent knows that the records contained therein are public."

• Same great performance as Taq DNA Polymerase in a more convenient format for high throughput applications.
• Visual confirmation that not only has the enzyme been added, but that proper mixing has occurred.
• No additional loading dyes are necessary. An aliquot can be taken directly from the reaction and loaded onto an agarose gel for electrophoresis.

One unit incorporates 10 nmol of total dNTPs into acid-precipitable DNA in 30 min at 74 °C.
REDTaq DNA Polymerase is a unique blend of Sigma′s quality Taq DNA Polymerase combined with an inert red dye. This dye enables quick visual confirmation of enzyme addition and reaction mixing. An aliquot of the samples (5-10 μl) can then be loaded directly onto an agarose gel for electrophoresis following PCR. The red dye migrates slightly faster than bromophenol blue at about the same rate as a 125 base pair fragment in a 1% agarose gel. Since no additional loading buffers are added to the reaction following PCR, reamplification is possible.
The red dye has no effect on automated or manual sequencing, restriction digestions or other downstream applications. However, if removing the dye is desired, this can easily be accomplished using any standard purification method.

Between golf outings (13 weekends in a row), musical soirees in the East Room, fantasy basketball pickup games, and trips to fundraisers for high rollers, Obama has made numerous trips to promote so-called clean-tech energy ventures. He has touted these companies as the wave of the future and as the hope for job growth in America. However, as is true of most actions Barack Obama takes there is an ulterior motive -- and it all has to do with himself.
The Washington Post reports that the focus of these clean-energy trips have been to ventures backed by huge donors to Barack Obama:
In all, Obama has visited 22 clean-tech projects in 19 separate trips....
Republicans and outside critics also have honed in on the political connections of some companies that have received federal help. The most attention has focused on Solyndra, a Silicon Valley solar company that ran into financial trouble after receiving a $535 million federal loan guarantee commitment....
Some of the biggest investors in Solyndra, which makes easy-to-install solar panels, were venture capital funds associated with Tulsa billionaire George Kaiser, a key Obama fundraiser. Rep. Cliff Stearns (R-Fla.), chairman of the Energy and Commerce Committee's subcommittee on oversight and investigations, said he is "concerned that there was a hurry to get this money out of the door and that companies and individuals that supported the president were among the beneficiaries.''(snip)
Obama began his out-of-town clean-tech travel in March 2009. At a number of the companies the president visited, there were connections - not all of them close, to be sure - to his 2008 campaign. Over the months, Obama touted a Florida's utility's electric grid project (a company in an Obama fundraiser's portfolio was doing extensive business with the project) and a Nevada company that generates emission-free power from waste heat, the warmth radiated by machines or industrial processes (an Obama fundraiser is a partner in a venture fund that has a small stake in the company).
The benefit from these travels are immense. A company cannot buy this type of public relations. After all, Obama only frees up his spare time for pleasure trips.
While Obama touts these companies as being incubators for job growth, they are failures in this regard. Clean energy does not generate many jobs at all and those that are generated are often temporary, costs taxpayers a great deal of money per job, or are jobs generated overseas since so much of the equipment being produced has a made in China or made in Europe label stamped inconspicuously on them
American Thinker has been reporting for many months about the ties between taxpayers' funding for the profit-making ventures backed by Obama donor s(see Green Schemes benefit Democratic "Friends and Family" Program Members and Cheap Natural gas and its Democratic Enemies).
So much for all the change and hope. Deep down, as Obama himself said, he sees politics as the practice of hurting your enemies and rewarding his friends.
He is a creature of Cook County after all.
The ties are numerous and incestuous. American taxpayers are being used to fund the high-flying ventures of Democratic donors. If the projects fail (and they are failing left and right) we lose. If they succeed (at least for a short-time) by going public, private investors (those Obama donors) win big. Taxpayers do not see any return.
The game has been rigged by Obama and his fellow Democrats. "Clean" indeed in two meanings of the word. The donor money is being returned to them multiplied by Obama's sending taxpayer dollars back to them. And we, the American taxpayers, are being taken to the cleaners.
This is really one very weird President.
Agreed. He does not have American values therefore he doesn't give a whit about doing what's best for the country. I used to believe it's because of immaturity but now I believe it's intentional.
You can say a lot of things about Barry, but he does have his priorities, and he's always #1 in his list.
He is using us for his own ends. He doesn't give a rip about America. He's proven it over and over again by his actions. I never listen to what he says anymore. His words rarely match up with his actions.

in response to bird_dog:
I would like to see some statistics about the causes of power outage in KUB's service area. Do the facts support their "tree trimming" policy? Has service improved after each round of "pruning"?
The trees in our neighborhood look awful after KUB goes through, but I do like having electricity.
I recently heard a citizen at a neighborhood meeting challenge the causes of power outage, i.e., that tree limbs actually cause a very small percentage of service interruptions... Will KUB release those stats???
I really can't believe someone would challenge that concept. If you worked 911 during any rainstorm, you'd know that the tree cutting is necessary. Not only could this prevent power outtages, it can save lives.
How incredibly selfish it is to want to preserve a tree at the risk of others lives and basic needs.

LOUISVILLE, KY (WAVE) - Louisville Metro Police arrested a man for allegedly being intoxicated in public.
Officers were called to Jefferson Boulevard around 3:00 Wednesday afternoon. When they got to the location, police said Johnny Ladasz, 55, asked the officers, "where do you guys keep the beer around here?"
The arrest report said officers observed that Ladasz was unsteady on his feet, smelled strongly of alcohol, had glassy, bloodshot eyes and slurred speech. Police believed he was a danger to himself and others.
Ladasz is being charged with public intoxication.

Sins of a Solar Empire v1.05 packs 2 new maps, more fixes |
Listed in: News, Patches, Titles, Genre Tags: Ironclad Games, Stardock
Stardock Entertainment, together with Ironclad Games, is happy to announce that the latest build (from version 1.04) for Sins of a Solar Empire is out. Version 1.05 of the patch comes with a short list of fixes for both single player and multiplayer.
Of those several included are the ones that don't make multiplayer sessions hitch whenever TEC commanders attempt broadsiding Battleship Autocannons (boo yeah!). Other fixes include:
- Fixed bug deallocating particle pool memory.
- Fixed cargo ship related crash caused when loading a saved game.
- Increased the maximum length of map description text. If the text is too long, it will no longer crash the game.
- AI missions no longer continue if a human player has taken over for them.
- AI controlled units will no longer still have AI-control if a human player has taken over for them.
- Fixed crash when attempting to toggle the autocast state for an uncontrollable ship/planet module.
- Fixed capturable resource mines from being considered damageable.
- Fixed squad owner infocards to gracefully handle large numbers of squads (100+).
- Fixed crash if you run out of video memory when loading textures.
- Planet asteroid setup now uses TotalMaxResourcesAsteroids parameter again.
- Added two new maps: Melting Point and Ancient Gifts.
- ICO accounts will now be forced to logout if you attempt to login with the same account.
- Malice changed to fix CPU issues in the late game due to previous implementation of the ability. Malice now accumulates damage on affected targets and then spreads that damage when the buff expires, rather than spreading damage as soon as damage is applied. Its duration, cooldown and AM cost have all been reduced to reflect this. Malice is now target capped as well at 8/16/24 targets.
- Fixed bug in galaxy generator related to vertical planet offsets when planets are too close together.
- New default texture quality settings set.
Ironclad Games also hints that the next patch for Sins of a Solar Empire will be a major one: patch version 1.1. It's said to tweak multiplayer coding a whole lot, and it might even come with even more content. More on that as we come across details. For now, enjoy.

Reframing the Fight: Why Prevention Is the Cure for Breast Cancer
The pink ribbon and the "need for a cure" are now widely recognized in America, due in part to the help of many generous individuals and a range of corporate sponsors. Each year in October, Breast Cancer Awareness Month is commemorated with walks, ribbons, fundraising, and advertising. For this reason, some cynically call it Breast Cancer Industry Month. Although activists have been working to generate awareness of this disease for decades, there is an underside to the image of progress, hope, and solidarity that pervades stores and magazine pages during October—not only are rates increasing, some of the largest financial supporters may possibly be contributing to breast cancer incidence.
This strange, ironic, and unjust fact was one of the reasons I made No Family History, a film that follows one woman's struggle with breast cancer to tell the much bigger story about everyday exposures linked to the disease. In the film, we meet scientists studying chemicals that inhabit our own homes and examining the ingredients in our cosmetics that are often linked to breast cancer. I take a closer look at Avon [1], one of the biggest fundraisers for breast cancer who ironically has refused to get rid of some suspect chemicals in their products even after activists have asked the company for their removal [2].
Of course, my film is not the first time a filmmaker has taken a close look at the breast cancer experience. My Breast (1994), My Left Breast (2000), The Breast Cancer Diaries (2005), One in Eight: Janice's Journey (2006), and Dear Talula (2007) all tell the stories of women who face a life-threatening diagnosis and overcome a seemingly endless number of obstacles in the process of recovery. They lead us to care deeply about women with breast cancer and often set a goal for ourselves that we will somehow take part in finding a cure.
While there is a tremendous need to call attention to better treatment, support and a cure we also need to produce and promote a different genre of breast cancer film one that proposes that exposing the causes of breast cancer is equally as important as exposing the suffering that results.
Rachel's Daughters (1997) and the short film Toxic Bust (2006) reflect this different genre. They are heartbreaking, gut-wrenching, sometimes empowering and often sobering in a way that is different from other breast cancer films. My experience making No Family History, following Robin over the last four years, has lead me to appreciate why avoiding the disease entirely is a much better deal. This is an important lesson, but one that has often been too quiet on the breast cancer agenda. As Karen Miller, a Long Island breast cancer activist says, "Prevention is the Cure."
Every three minutes a woman will be diagnosed with breast cancer. We have the power to change the statistics [3]. Get informed and find out about bills that are pending in your state to better regulate carcinogenic chemicals. Take action and vote for officials who care about the public's health not just corporate profits. Make the effort to choose less toxic cleaning products, use organic rather than synthetic fertilizer on your plants, drink out of metal rather than plastic water bottles, and read the labels of your personal care products to avoid chemicals like phthalates [4]. Finally, support genre-changing films like Toxic Bust screening at Breast Fest Film Festival [5], the world's first film festival dedicated entirely to films about the Breast Cancer, and No Family History in its last stages of production.

The Georgia Chapter of the Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS) announces the 3rd Annual North Metro Light The Night Walk (LTN), to be held on Saturday, September 28, at 5pm at the Cumming Fairgrounds. The Walk encourages teams of families, friends, co-workers and local and national corporations to come together to raise funds for LLS. This will be one of five Light The Night Walks held in the state of Georgia this Fall. As inspiration for the Walk, LLS selects an honored hero that is fighting leukemia.
Hanna, a beloved daughter and big sister, is this year's honored hero. She was diagnosed with acute lymphoblastic leukemia and has been undergoing treatment for about two and a half years. Hanna has dreams of attending Emory University to study genetics. She has kept a positive attitude throughout her treatment and is determined not to let blood cancer get the best of her. Hanna is looking forward to being a part of the Walk.
"We are pleased to have honored hero Hanna a part of the Walk. We have received a tremendous amount of support from the local community in Forsyth, Gwinnett and North Fulton counties and it really shows in the enthusiasm demonstrated by our partners, sponsors and Walk teams for the Light The Night Walk. We are working to reach our goal of $320,000 and we cannot do it without the many volunteers and participants who have helped with this Walk," said Emily Kallos, LTN Senior
Campaign Manager of the LLS Georgia Chapter.
The North Metro Walk will draw over 70 teams and 2,500 participants, and funds raised will be used to fund lifesaving blood cancer research, free educational materials and events for patients and families, local family and patient support programs and comprehensive, personalized assistance through LLS's Information Resource Center. During the event, walkers carry illuminated balloons - white for survivors, red for supporters and gold in memory of loved ones lost to cancer -- and form a community of caring, bringing light to the dark world of cancer.
The Walk's presenting sponsors are Northside Hospital Cancer Institute and Infor.
For more information about LLS or the North Metro event, contact Light The Night staff at (404) 720-7841 or log on to www.lightthenight.org/ga.

Farmed Tilapia, With A Dash Of Antibiotic
Half of the world's seafood is raised on farms, and some of those fish are bound to get sick at some point. So fish farmers, just like animal farmers, are keen on dumping antibiotics — sometimes in huge quantities — in those fish pens to keep the population safe.
A discerning eater might want to know if the shrimp that hits the plate is laced with drug residues, given that some can cause antibiotic resistance and cancer. But a new study says there's no way to find out, given the sketchy state of seafood import monitoring.
"We import millions of tons of seafood, and the testing is minuscule," says David Love, author of a new study in Environmental Science and Technology on drug residues in seafood. Love, a project director at the Center for a Livable Future at Johns Hopkins University, looked at testing for veterinary drugs in seafood in the United States, Canada, Japan, and the European Union, and compared systems. The U.S. trailed the pack.
Europe inspects 20 to 50 percent of imported seafood. Japan inspects about 20 percent; Canada, 2 to 18 percent; and the U.S., just 2 percent. Love told The Salt: "We don't have enough information to assess the risk."
U.S. inspectors found just 24 violations a year on average, but Love says that's no reason to be reassured, because it's impossible to know how many tests are being done. What's more, the U.S. doesn't test for many drugs commonly used in acquaculture.
One they have detected is nitrofuran; it has been banned in the United States since 2002, because it causes cancer. The dye malachite green was also found, despite the fact that it's been banned for food use since 1983 because it is a suspected carcinogen.
These findings echo a report published by the Government Accountability Office last April. The GAO said the Food and Drug Administration should emulate European countries in requiring importing countries to monitor drug residues in seafood before it's imported.
The paltry data doesn't give shoppers much to go on at the seafood market, where 85 percent of fish and shellfish are imported, on average. But Love's survey found that seafood from Vietnam and China had the highest rate of inspection violations in the United States, followed by Indonesia, domestic products, Thailand, and India.
Independent programs like the Monterey Bay Aquarium's Seafood Watch offer some help, with guides that include sustainably farmed fish.
In the United States, environmental groups and consumer advocates have been pushing for a ban on the use of antibiotics in animal feed, because they increase the risk of antibiotic resistance to drugs used in humans.
And it recently looked like they were getting traction. Last year the FDA went so far as to issue a "Draft Guidance on the Judicious Use of Antibiotics in Food-Producing Animals" last year. That guidance proposed limiting use of the drugs to animal health, rather than to promote growth and weight gain.
"Based on our review, FDA believes the overall weight of evidence available to date supports the conclusion that using medically important antimicrobial drugs for production purposes is not in the interest of protecting and promoting the public health," then-FDA Deputy Commissioner Joshua Sharfstein said in a June 2010 press conference announcing the draft guidance.
But this week, the FDA appeared to take a step back. It rejected a petition that advocacy groups filed way back in 1999, asking the agency to ban non-medical uses of antibiotics in animal feed. No word from the FDA on whether this means that action on judicious use is in the works, or lost in the mists of bureaucracy.

Shaker style furniture is the most sought after design in our online gallery. Shaker style furniture has been around since the late 1700′s and has evolved to accommodate today's contemporary home. Some of today's Shaker style furniture are adaptations of pieces that did not exist, like TV stands and media consoles.

The contemporary Vermont craftsmen have embraced the original concept of Shaker style furniture, creating their own versions. Vermont style shaker furniture is widely admired for it's simplistic, functional, and sturdy design. It's identified by traditional straight lines, tapered posts and legs, and the familiar round Shaker knob.
Our Shaker furniture is most popular in natural cherry wood. Cherry is one of the most prized hardwoods in New England and in the United States. The rich color of solid cherry wood is the driving factor in people's admiration, but the strength of the wood makes it perfect for our Vermont shaker style furniture.
We are currently having a Shaker style furniture sale! We offer over 200 pieces of Shaker influenced furniture in our online gallery. You will find a variety of styles in our six Shaker furniture collections, ranging from traditional designs to Shaker style furniture with a contemporary look.

Last week we received an enthusiastic email from a family in California thanking us for the great job our moving company (Clark and Reid) did with the delivery of their Vermont made Shaker bedroom set:
"I wanted to let you know what a wonderful experience I had with your movers. I had one of your beds shipped to my vacation home in the Sierras. Because the road is very steep and winding, Clark and Reid needed to bring the bed in a special shuttle, the cost of which they covered. Also, I wasn't able to be present at the house at the time a driver was available to make the delivery, and was able to arrange to have a concierge service meet the driver and let him into the house to assemble the bed. Clark and Reid offered to reimburse me for the cost of the service (up to $75).
I was told by the concierge that the driver was very professional and efficient. He arrived on time and handled all the details of moving and assembly. It was a pleasure to purchase furniture from you and to work with such an excellent shipper. Thank you so much! Best Regards, Debbie D
We love hearing your Vermont made furniture stories and reviews, whether they're about the delivery experience or the good times you share around the dining table with family and friends. Keep 'em coming! You're helping us make our systems better. In this case, the comments went to straight to Clark and Reid where the driver and his manager reviewed them together (maybe someone will even get a well-deserved raise). Other comments have helped us improve the quality of our Shaker furniture and the logistics needed to get it from the forest to your living room.
So help us Movers and Shakers by sending in feedback about your new Vermont handmade furniture. Use the comments section below, email us or connect using our Facebook. Thanks in advance for your feedback!

For those of you that live in four seasons land you may agree with me when I say fall is in the air.

We'll be introcuding our new luxury Modern Shaker Furniture Collection in a few weeks but I wanted to let you have an insiders look at what's to come. This is one of the three lines of Vermont Made furniture we were photographing in Burlington last month. We have several pieces up on the website now, but we're still working on it and the entire collection is not yet available online (it is available by phone).
This is classic Shaker style furniture with a few modern twists, like arched aprons and curved corners. Actually customers have their choice of square or rounded corners and edges. It's amazing how different the pieces look just by changing that one feature– the corners and edges.
These luxury collections offer our customers a new finish choice too. It's a high end, hand-rubbed linseed oil and wax finish– something you don't see around much these days– and it's absolutely incredible to the touch. It's so finely sanded it feels almost like soft skin. Keep checking back at Vermont Woods Studios furniture to see additional pieces coming online, including beds, chests, dressers, armoires, night stands, dining tables, buffets, hutches, occasional tables and more. Check out the new photos on our homepage.

At Vermont Woods Studios we have the privilege of working with some of the best fine furniture makers in the world, so the crafting part of our business is always pretty trouble-free. It's the shipping end of things that presents the biggest challenge.
Our shipper is an award-winning antique furniture specialist. They are the shipper of choice for Sotheby's and Christie's too. Occasionally however, we get a phone call that something has gone awry. That happened last month when Jessica L phoned. There had been a mis-communication between Jessica and our shipper and as a result, this Vermont Made Shaker Buffet was delivered when she was not at home.
Normally the shipper would contact Jessica and return another day, however Jessica's neighbor volunteered to receive the delivery on her behalf– a solution that didn't work out for Jessica. Our job, when something isn't quite right like this is to fix the problem and make sure our customer is happy with the result. Rebecca is our ace problem solver and here's how Jessica described her damage control efforts:
Dear Peggy-
I wanted to write you to thank you for the excellent customer service I received from
I initially wrote to complain that a delivery of a dresser had been
made without notice or my confirmation – since I was not home, the
dresser ended up at my neighbor's. Rebecca immediately emailed me back, and called, with apologies. I had not expected or thought that anything could be done, but Rebecca
arranged for the delivery men to return and move the dresser from my
neighbor's to my apartment. I was so impressed by the attention she gave
the matter, as well as her ability to redress the situation. The
dresser was moved yesterday, without a hitch. Also, the piece I ordered
is absolutely beautiful. I look forward to ordering from Vermont Woods Studio in the future, and my neighbor – who housed the dresser for a
week – also asked for your website info, as he loved the piece.I don't usually write letters like this, but I don't usually receive
such great service. The true mark of a company is revealed, I think, not
by flawless service, but how problems are addressed. This situation was
addressed with the utmost care, respect, and competency. I truly thank
you and
Rebecca for that.All best,
Thanks Rebecca for all you do for our customers and our business. You are awesome! And thanks Jessica for taking the time out of your busy day to write such a nice note.

World War Z is clearly out to make a buck — and needs to, since with its well-publicized overruns, rewrites and production delays, it looks to have cost gazillions in screenwriter salaries alone — but for its first hour or so, you'd never guess this sprawling contagion epic had anything on its mind but action storytelling.

It's impossible to open the newspaper or turn on the TV these days without seeing some outrageous example of new Asian money. From a castle modeled on Versailles in Changsha to billion-dollar penthouses in Bombay to the Marina Bay Sands casino in Singapore, with its seven celebrity-chef restaurants, the inescapable truth looms before us: We Asians are not just rich but also, frankly, somewhat crazy.

One of the most anticipated shows of the summer, Under the Dome, starts Monday on CBS. It's about a tiny New England town that's suddenly and mysteriously sealed off by an impenetrable dome.
The series is the first on-screen collaboration between two of the biggest Steves in popular culture — Steven Spielberg and Stephen King.
"The Steven Squared, we call it," cracks Neal Baer, an executive producer of the show.

Yup, Joe Sestak and Pat Toomey are tied again, says Public Policy Polling.
The only way I saw Toomey keeping his previous lead was if the Job Offer controversy heated up and implicated Sestak in wrongdoing. It seems clear to me that the whole thing has blown over, and now the electorate has shifted back toward the tie I expect it to be from now to November.

According to an internal poll of Mick Mulvaney's discovered by National Journal, the South Carolina Republican has gained 11 points on 14 term Democrat John Spratt of the 5th district.
If the Chairman of the Budget Committee can't use his seniority to keep his seat safe, then I would expect to see a wave nationwide.

Rasmussen released two new polls today. The Illinois and Delaware Senate races would seem to have little in common, but they do share a common element: they are being held for the seats vacated by Barack Obama and Joe Biden after their victory in November 2008.
Are voters inclined to send more Democrats to the Senate to work with them?

Last yeah I made one of these little felt Xmas critters each for Koby, Charlee and Noah. Last night I made four more for Trent's kids to hang on the Xmas tree. Now they have one each.
Monthly Archives: November 2011
A day out
Considering the fact that it is how I make my living, sometimes I really suck in the role of family photographer. But then again often it's nice to just spend the day being rather than doing. And that's what I did on Sunday.
This photo of Charlee above is the only one I took all day while we were at Gumbyah Park. For those not familiar, that is a really outdated and rather pathetic attempt at a "theme park" located in the south east of Melbourne. Sure, 20 years ago it may have been a real hoot but today it's all just a bit "meh".
But that being said, we did have a good day out with my three kids, trent, myself and my family (mum, dad, brother, sister, sister in law and her parents). Unfortunately Trent's kids couldn't come because they went away with their mum, but there wasn't a lot for younger kids to do really so maybe it wasn't such a bad thing.
Koby had a ball, he was old enough to go on everything (which only consisted of a slow mini car ride, a slightly faster but still pretty slow go kart ride, and a slightly faster toboggan which was his favourite). Charlee didn't want to do any of the above but she did ride a pony (after standing in line for 35 min), had her face painted and played mini golf.
Noah was miserable the whole day (I now of course know he was unwell) so didn't do anything, and we all got rather sunburnt.
Sorry, i probably sound really negative lol. It was a good day, good company can make the worst place bearable, I just found it surprising that this place has managed to remain open for so long. I doubt we will be rushing back.
The most fun the kids had was on the way out when we came across a cool swing that had 6 seats in a circle and it went around like a merry-go-round. All five of us hopped on it at once and it was great. We couldn't get them back off it again, we could have saved ourselves the almost $100 entry fee and just spun around on that thing all day for nothing lol.
Xmas trees and other things
Well the end of year laziness has well and truly set in for me. There is so much I need to do that it's just becoming overwhelming… And so I don't do it.
It seems stupid I know, but that's just what my brain does, it freaks out about the size of the to do list but instead of motivating me to get on top of it I sabotage myself by covering my own ears and closing my eyes while chanting "la la la la la la laaaaa" very loudly just hoping it all goes away.
Just a few things on my list at the moment,
- wrap up see be art work for the year. I try and avoid working through December but due to a few rescheduled sessions I still have a fair bit to do. Shooting a few more sessions, ordering, editing, catching up on MYOB and tax stuff as well as organizing and planing for next year.
- finish editing last weeks wedding
- study and write up my exam cheat sheet for next weeks final Stats exam. (insert scream here)
- work out all the study materials for the UNI subjects starting up in a few weeks and read week one materials.
- clean out ALL the wardrobes in the house to sort out old clothes and toys we don't need to make room for new things at Xmas.
- plan Xmas (Xmas lunch at our house, need to work out what we need and delegate who needs to bring what.
- mow the lawn (note to self, hand ball that particular chore over to Trent)
- organize Charlees birthday party (aprox 4 weeks away).
- make a gingerbread house with the kids… As promised.. Several years in a row but never actually achieved. But it WILL be done this year
- Begin Xmas shopping for family. (thankfully the kids are all organized… All seven of them. Yep bonus ten points for us)
- clean up and declutter the house.
- find four more dining chairs.
- wash the couch covers (they are seriously yuck)
- get Noah's 18 month immunisations done (has to wait yet another week because he is sick again)
- put up the Xmas tree
I'm sure there is more stuff I'm forgetting as well.
the most important thing right now however is to just sit and enjoy the peace.
I just got back from the doctors with Noah again. It looks like he has bronchiolitis again, either that or it's just a nasty head cold that has aggravated his asthma symptoms. The doctor (who sees him every time he gets like this) is pretty convinced that he will end up developing full blown asthma in the next few years. He is SO wheezy. Ever breath rattles and squeaks and last night he was really struggling for breath in between coughing.
Anyway, not much can be done, he is back on antibiotics and also something to help open his airways a bit. I got about 3 hours sleep last night in between dealing with Noah coughing and Koby deciding to have a anxiety attack. (whole other story there, it has been going on for a few months now but I'm noticing the more tired he is the worse it is so he has agreed to start going to bed 30 min earlier to see if it helps).
Now in between the fifty thousand other things I've been doing, I finished off a little collection of felt Xmas trees. The beginnings of my Xmas decorations for the year. I think they are quite cute and add a little festiveness to the house.
In hindsight I think I should have added something inside them to help weigh them down a little. They don't really sit that well on their own, but then again if I had added a few rocks or something it would hurt a lot more when Noah clocks you over the head with them.
catching up
Sorry, i seem to be neglecting my blog a little bit lately. It's a combination of having fifty thousand things to do and none of them being particularly blog-worthy so i don't bother coming in and reporting on them. Here is a quick run down of a few things that have been going on.
I re-arranged the boys bedroom (again) the other day to make room for a bigger tv for koby to play his play station on, i am really hoping that in the next few months Noah will be ready to move into a big bed so i can buy some bunks and ditch the cot. This will free up heaps more space for them, but in the mean time it all has to squish in. I had to move Kobys bed over and unfortunately it took Noah…oh… 30 seconds to realize he could now switch on the light..and off again..and on…and off…on…off..on off on of on of on off…you get the point. He is at such an adorable age though and still obsessed with cars. That's all he ever plays with, cars and the broom. In other exciting news, he has finally managed to cut through his four eye teeth, so he now has a full mouth of toothy pegs. Hurrah! I finally got Charlee's hair cut, she was beginning to resemble cousin it from The Adams Family. She didn't loose a lot of length (im not quite ready to let go of her gorgeous blonde locks) but she can actually see now which is always a good thing.
The kids found a baby bird in our front yard a few days ago, i thought it was dead but when i picked it up to bury it it moved so instead we wrapped it up in some tissues to keep it warm and comfortable. I knew it wouldn't make it through the night and i explained this to the kids, but at least bringing it in from the cold meant it wasn't going to shiver to death outside…or be eaten by the cat. Yuck. Anyway, he had died by the morning so we tucked him up and buried him in the garden.
We also brought ourselves a bigger dining table. On Saturday and Sunday night there is nine of us here for dinner now (Trent + me + 7 children = lots of bodies) so my tiny little four person dining table just wasn't going to cut it. I found this beauty on Ebay, it folds down to seat six or extends to seat 10 comfortably (12 if you squish everyone in). I was a little worried that it would take up way too much room in my little house and that we would have to keep opening it up and closing it down. But it actually fits quite well. I'm happy to just leave it extended permanently. It didn't come with chairs though so we need to keep an eye out for a few extras over the next week or so.
Trent is quite an archery buff so last night he took us all down to his local club. Koby has been wanting to go for weeks so he was really excited. The kids both had a go and they loved it. They both did really well, better than i was expecting for a first go. Especially Koby, he seems to have a real knack for it, he even got several right in the middle of the target. He now wants his own bow and he wants to go back all the time. He wants to get good enough so he can go bow hunting with Trent…i'm not too impressed with that idea but anything that gets him off and away from the bloody computer games he is obsessed with can't be a bad thing. Right?
I am starting to get into Christmas mode. I have put a few things on layby for the kids and i'm starting to think about decorations and logistics of how christmas will work this year. Divided families makes thing difficult. I am hosting christmas for my family at my house this year, which was going to happen on xmas eve but Luke is now having his family lunch on Christmas eve which means the kids have to go with him to Geelong, so now my family is being bumped to xmas day. Which i was hoping to avoid because at this stage we will have all 7 kids with us on xmas eve and also xmas day (um….yikes). See…lots of things to think about and plan.
I also want to make a whole heap of new felt xmas decorations. I purchased this book last year but i got it way too close to xmas to do much, this time i am going to be more prepared. Charlee has already made herself this cute little gingerbread man. I cut it out and she did all the stitching together (except the face and buttons). That's the great thing about felt, kids can make things with it so easily because there is no hemming or fussing around with raw edges. You just cut and sew.
Well that's about it for now. I am flying out to Sydney on Thursday to photograph a gorgeous friends wedding on the 11/11/11. I will pop back in when i get home to tell you all about it. Until then xo

Warren Frost | |
Born | Vermont |
May 25, 1925
Occupation | Stage, television, film actor |
Children | Mark, Lindsay, Scott |
Warren Frost (born May 25, 1925) is an American actor. His work has mainly been in the theatre, but he has worked in movie and television sporadically since 1958. He is known for roles in Twin Peaks, Matlock, The Larry Sanders Show, and Seinfeld.
Frost spent much of his career in the Twin Cities, teaching at the University of Minnesota and serving as Artistic Director of The Chimera Theater in St. Paul. He had a small yet memorable role in the film adaptation of Slaughterhouse Five, which was shot in the Minneapolis area. His Hollywood work in shows such as Twin Peaks and Matlock was essentially his second career, following his retirement from teaching and stage direction.
Frost is the father of novelist, television screenwriter and producer Mark Frost, actress Lindsay Frost and writer Scott Frost. He is the grandfather of baseball player Lucas Giolito.[1]

[Ecls-list] libevent
From: Brian Spilsbury <brian.spilsbury@gm...> - 2006-05-26 08:11
What do people think about integrating libevent (conditionally) into the ecl core? It seems to have a bsd style license, it seems to compile to about 17-24k of code under linux, and seems to have windows support. The main reason to include it in the core would be to support listen and read-char-no-hang without polling select. And once there it can form the basis of an integrated io/timing scheduler, to do jobs like serve-event in cmucl, or be used more directly for servers, etc. Another reason is that I'd like to get coroutine support happening sometime, and then have stream io integrated with scheduling, in which case all blocking operations would need to be scheduler-aware. Regards, Brian. |
