I tried to keep this blog not too baby-themed but having a one year old, who wants to run like a maniac anywhere we go, my activities had to be adjusted to his needs. I try to do as many outdoor days as possible, something for the both of us to enjoy. Having my bike with a child seat made a huge difference and I can now zip through Richmond Park in no time and discover new places.
Yesterday we went to nearby Deen Farm where the kids could admire all the farm animals including very sweet looking alpacas and amazing turkeys. They even have a riding school. There is a farm shop where usually you can buy eggs that school kids pick (they didn't have any yesterday) and you can feed the animals too.
There is a small garden and a picnic area where we had our lunch. Apart from sandwiches and flasks of tea I brought along savoury squash muffins and the babies loved them. It's the perfect healthy cake-y snack for days out and I will definitely experiment with bananas and other sweet fruit and veg to make variations of these.
Pumpkin and rosemary muffins by Lorraine Pascale
180g self raising flour, sieved
130g wholemeal flour, sieved and bran reserved for sprinkling
1 tsp baking powder
1/2 tsp bicarb of soda
pinch of salt
2 sprigs of rosemary, leaves picked and chopped finely
60ml oil
2 eggs
100ml yogurt
275ml milk
1tbsp honey
1 mid size chopped and cooked or roasted squash
Preheat the oven to 200 d C and line a 12 hole muffin tray with paper cups.
Combine all the dry ingredients in one bowl and all the wet ingredients in another bowl, add most of the squash and stir it as little as possible until just combined. Sprinkle the rest of the squash and the bran on top and bake for 20-25 min or until the skewer comes out clean.

With loving friends and family beside him, Jonny left us far too soon on Wednesday, June 6, 2012. Born January 16, 1990, Jonny leaves behind his heartbroken family: parents Lynda and Ian, sisters Katie and Emma, brother Nick, as well as grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins. Jonny loved every new and challenging experience that came his way and looked forward to the people and places that only awaited his discovery with joyful and excited anticipation. There was nothing that was out of the realm of the ''possible'' for him. Jonny was an avid outdoorsman, a talented tennis player and a hard working student. Through his kindness and generosity, Jonny always endeavoured to share what he cared about with others, starting a charity in Grade 3 to send underprivileged children to camp, and creating the first environmental stewardship at his high school. In university, Jonny helped found a Canadian Club at St. Andrews and brought competitive ice hockey to the school. He was a mentor and, above all, an open- hearted friend whose care and kindness towards others earned him the respect and love of his peers, teachers, family and friends. He will continue to hold a special place in the hearts of the many people who knew him. Jonny will be fondly remembered at Upper Canada College in Toronto, where he graduated in 2008 and was awarded the Herbert Mason Medal, UCC's highest honour for character, integrity and recognition of community leadership. He also leaves behind a large community of friends at the University of St. Andrews in Scotland, where he was scheduled to graduate next week with an M.A. in International Relations. Jonny was laid to rest in a private family ceremony on Wednesday, June 13, 2012 in Toronto. A memorial service will be held to celebrate Jonny's life on Thursday, June 21 at 4:30 p.m. at Laidlaw Hall, Upper Canada College, 200 Lonsdale Road, Toronto. In lieu of flowers, donations to the Upper Canada College Foundation in the name of the Jonathan Wookey Memorial Scholarship would be appreciated. Donations may be made online at www.ucc.on.ca or by calling 416-488-1125 x2239. Online condolences may be made at www.etouch.ca.

Hafnarfjörður town belongs to the so-called "Great-Reykjavík area" and I have made a special page on Hafnarfjörður with tips on what to do there. It is a lovely town built on and around big lava rocks.
Hafnarfjörður is built around the harbour which was once one of the main harbours in Iceland.
The Viking village is located in Hafnarfjörður and has a really interesting Viking restaurant and bar and the Hotel Viking. The decor is Viking style and the atmosphere is pure "Viking". The waitresses are dressed up as Valkyries and the menu consists of "Viking food".
Hafnarfjörður hosts the Annual International Viking Festival which will be held for the 14th time this year (2010). Thousands of "Vikings" from all over the world (mostly Scandinavia, England and Germany plus Icelanders of course) gather in and around The Viking Village and the fun goes on for several days (see my tips on my Hafnarfjörður page). Do pay it a visit if you are in this area in June. Iceland is called the Mekka of Vikings :)
Bjarni Sívertsen 1763-1833 (my ancestor) was a pioneer in Icelandic shipping and trade and a great entrepreneur in Hafnarfjörður from 1794-1830 and owned a fishing business and a shipyard there. He was one of the best known traders in Iceland. He received The Knight's cross from the Danish king and was always called Bjarni riddari Sívertsen from then on (Sir Bjarni). He has been named The Father of Hafnarfjörður for his part in saving the town from ruins and for making it into a blossoming town. Part of his former home hosts the Hafnarfjörður District Museum. His home, The Sívertsen House in Vesturgata 6, is the oldest house in Hafnarfjörður, built in 1803-1805 by Bjarni Sívertsen himself.
There are 2 prominent parks in Hafnarfjörður, the small and lovely Hellisgerði, where the statue of Bjarni Sívertsen is situated, and Víðistaðatún park, which is a big park with a pond.
Hafnarfjörður is well worth a visit while visiting Reykjavík.
Hafnarfjördur is about 15 minutes by car from Reykjavik. In Iceland you have a lot of legends involving elves, dwarves and trolls. For me this is unsurprising in regard of the mystical landscape :). It is said, that in Hafnarfjördur a very large population of those hidden people is to be found. But also apart from the elves, dwarves and trolls, Hafnarfjördur is a nice little town with an interesting harbour. Whale watching tours are departing from there too. I saw some nice walks on the cliffs, unfortunately it was too windy to get out of the car, I feared to get blown away. The odd looking Viking village restaurant is located in Hafnarfjördur too.

Amar Dhesi of Burnaby Central won a fifth medal and fourth provincial gold in his five-year B.C. high school wrestling career.
The 17-year-old super heavyweight, who has been offered a full-ride athletic scholarship to Oregon State University, won his fourth consecutive gold medal at the provincials in Duncan, outpointing runner-up Juma Nathani of John Oliver 6-0, 6-0 in the two-round championship 110-plus kilogram boys' final on Saturday.
"He was basically just trying to get a workout in - he won easily. He's head over heels above everybody," said Central head coach Gianni Buono.
Only two other Burnaby wrestlers made it to a provincial final.
Darth Capellan of St. Thomas More placed second behind Dave Sharma of MEI in the 54kg final, while former provincial and national cadet champion Melvin Arciaga of Burnaby South was upset by the tournament's most outstanding wrestler Amrit Benning of W.J. Mouat in the 60kg final.
STM tied for the aggregate team title with Alberni District, both with 77 total points, but lost the banner on a tiebreaker based on the number of individual champions from each team.
A provincial banner would have been the first aggregate title in the program's history.
The STM Knights placed five girls in the semifinals, but came away with only three medals - all bronze.
The Knight girls' team finished fifth overall, following another tiebreak after a three-way tie with Carson Graham and Port Moody, all with 33 points.
The boys' team placed third overall with 44 points.
"At the end of the day, it's still a good result. But we could have won," said STM coach Doug Corbett. "Having two teams in the top five - a lot of teams would have liked to have been in our boat."
Anna Benevoli won a bronze in the girls' 69kg division, while STM teammates Nicole Depa and Karah Bulaqui were also third at 57 and 40kg, respectively.
Meagan Chow, at 43kg, and last year's Western Canada age class and provincial champion, Clarisse Dos Santos, at 47kg, both finished in fourth place. Ivana Baker and Dayna Harlos also found a spot on the podium in fifth place for STM.
Central's Sara Brnkac was also fifth at 43kg.
"(Sara) wrestled well in a competitive weight class," said Buono. "She wrestled really determined
and really tough in a lot of close matches. She was determined to wrestle well, and I think she did that."
STM also picked up third-place medals from Daniel Alphonso, at 38kg, and Massimo Pozzolo at 63kg in the boys' division.
South had a disappointing final, placing in the boys' division with four other wrestlers finishing in the top six.
"If we had a few squeak into the semis, we could have been up there," said South coach Danny Einhorn. "I thought we should have been in the top 10."
Jimmy Sidhu did well at 84kg, placing behind New Westminster bronze medallist Jordan Chin.
Gagan Sohol was fifth at 110kg, while South classmates Safi Shar and Abdullah Saib both came sixth in their respective weight classes.
Burnaby Mountain's Kevin Joyal-Hutchings made his school proud, winning a bronze medal at 110kg.
Also making the semi-finals were Eric Bauer of STM at 70kg, and New West wrestlers Kaeden Hnatiw and T.J. Cordoviz.
STM's Colby Lantz, Joshua Juni and Rafal Posypanko, and New West's Billy Collins all placed in the top six.

Term Plans FAQs
What is term life insurance?
What is term life insurance?
Term life insurance is a basic form of insurance that offers death benefit for a fixed duration (ranging from 5-30 years) in return of the specific premium. If the insured dies within this specified term, the insurance company pays the amount to the beneficiaries mentioned in the policy. It builds no cash value and simply terminates if the insured outlives the term.
Why should I buy term life insurance?
Why should I buy term life insurance?
Term insurance offers one of the most affordable ways to protect your family's finances, if something were to happen to you. It offers a death benefit and some plans even have permanent disability riders. Many insurance companies offer Term insurance for a period of 5, 10, 15, 20 and 30 years thus offering relatively long Term of coverage. You should choose a term that at least covers you for the earning years of your life, i.e. 58 - {your current age}.
When is term life insurance the right choice?
When is term life insurance the right choice?
If you wish to have a life insurance with good coverage without having to pay large amount as premium, for a fixed duration, term insurance is an ideal option. It is most suitable to cover your fixed goals that may disappear over time.
What affects the premium rates of my term life insurance?
What affects the premium rates of my term life insurance?
Factors affecting the premium of term life insurance are:
• Age of the insured – Life insurance premiums are age linked. Younger the person lesser the premium. Life insurance premiums vary for different age brackets.
• Smokers or non-smokers – For many insurance companies, premiums are different for smokers and non-smokers. Smokers or tobacco users may have to pay higher premiums depending upon the insurance company norms.
• Sex of the insured– term insurance for males will cost more than that for females for the same sum assured.
• Medical conditions – Medical condition of the person being insured is important and medical check-up compulsory for term life insurance. The premium may vary as per the individual medical condition.
• Dangerous hobbies – If you indulge in dangerous hobbies like parachute jumping, race car driving etc. you might either be declined insurance or may have to pay higher premium based on the insurance company policy.
Term Insurance Basics
Have you thought what will happen to your dependants and your responsibilities if something untoward happens to you? What will happen to your children's education? Where will your family live, what happens to the loans that you have taken, how will they fulfill their daily requirements?
A low cost life insurance with high risk cover, term life insurance , might just be the solution. The purpose of term insurance is to replace your income in case of an eventuality. If you have adequate term insurance and such a situation arises during the specified term, your life insurance amount will make it possible for your family to have sufficient funds to take care of your basic responsibilities and remain self sustaining. Term Insurance is taken for a fixed duration generally up to 30 years or up to the maximum renewal age specified by the insuring company. It provides coverage till the time you maintain the insurance and ceases if you outlive the term. In its true sense, there is no cash value acquired on a term insurance plan (without return of premium ) unless it has a return of premium condition attached.
Buying a term insurance is almost hassle-free except that you might be required to undergo a medical examination to assess your health condition. Also, it is a good idea to consider some basic points of references from different companies offering same or similar term plans.
Points to consider:
• Option to Convert Plan
Some term plans offer the facility to convert it to other traditional plans like endowment plans or money back plans etc. at a later stage. Convertibility feature might prove useful if during the policy term you do not feel the need to continue term insurance and would like to switch over to another plan.
• Smokers and Non-smokers Criteria
Keeping in mind the fact that tobacco users are at higher health risk, some insurance companies have separate premium structures for smokers and non-smokers. In such cases, premiums for non-smokers or non-tobacco users might be much less than those for smokers or tobacco users.
• Terrorism Cover
Although Term Life Insurance covers death due to any reason, terrorism may or may not form a part of it for all life insurance companies. Depending upon your need to cover death due to act of terrorism, you must check if your shortlisted companies are providing the cover or not.
• Availability of Riders
Some insurance companies offer riders like accidental death benefit , dreaded diseases rider etc. These can be taken along with the basic term life insurance plan. Riders come with an added cost and are valid up to a certain age. The riders give an added support in case of death or benefits as mentioned in policy contract.
• Renew Upto Age
Each insurance company specifies maximum age up to which the insurance can be renewed (65-70 years of age) called the "renew up to age". Maximum duration for which one can take term insurance is also specified (up to 30-35 years duration). These two are important factors in deciding the maximum term for which you can take insurance.
• What is Easypolicy?
Easypolicy simply makes insurance easy. With Easypolicy, you may rest assured that you are making the right choice for your insurance policy.

A quick arrest
Within hours, police arrested a teenage boy, court documents said.
It was Louis Taylor, who had been inside the hotel.
He wasn't a guest and did not work there. And he had books of matches in his pocket.
During police interrogations, the juvenile claimed to have seen someone set the fire. This was before anyone had suspected arson.
But the young man changed his story multiple times.
It made officers suspicious: Maybe it was arson; maybe it was Taylor who started the fire.
Criminal witnesses
Journalist Crellin and KVOA kept up with the case.
Taylor told him that "he had some very tough interviews with the police." He was innocent, he said, a stance he has always maintained.
In an interview on the 25th anniversary of the fire, he told the broadcaster that the fire never goes out of his head.
"I think about it all the time, because I know in my heart and God knows that they got the wrong person. I was at the wrong place at the wrong time."
Prosecutors called two witnesses who were in juvenile detention with Taylor. They told the court that Taylor confessed to the crime to them behind bars.
Later, one of the boys said he had been coerced into his testimony and that it was false, according to court documents.
Experts for the prosecution and the defense testified that the fire, in their opinion, was caused by arson, though the details of their explanations differed.
In the end, Taylor was convicted of 28 counts of felony murder.
Judge Charles Hardy, who presided over the case, told Taylor that he didn't believe he meant to hurt anyone. But the punishment was stiff: "the rest of his natural life in prison," a sentence that at the time did not officially exist in the state of Arizona, a court document said.
In hindsight
Decades later, people involved in the conviction and sentencing began to feel bad about the case.
The CBS investigative magazine "60 Minutes" took up the case.

The azur 840A is the most flexible, most powerful, and best-sounding integrated amplifier that the British firm Cambridge Audio has ever built, and it even introduces a new Class XD mode of amplifier operation (see the sidebar). What is more, it also serves as a "multizone" integrated amplifier, providing dual A-BUS interfaces that can send audio signals via CAT5 wiring to two remote listening zones within the house. The 840A puts out a feisty 120 Wpc, and sells for $1499.
The azur 840A incorporates numerous detail touches that purists will appreciate. For example, the amplifier provides separate power supplies for its preamplifier and power amplifier sections, and offers eight user-nameable analog inputs—including one that supports both single-ended (RCA) and balanced (XLR) input jacks. Any of the amplifier's inputs can be locked to fixed gain levels, making the Cambridge ideal for home theater pass-through applications. Switch-selectable balance and tone controls are provided, as is a front panel-mounted Direct control that ensures the purest signal path possible. Finally, to complement its lowdistortion circuitry, the 840A controls volume levels via a relay-controlled, precision matched resistor ladder. Over time, I've heard many British integrated amplifiers that fit the stereotype of sounding warm, softly focused, and polite. The 840A is not among them. Right out of the box, it exhibited a big, bold sound characterized by terrific midrange definition and detail, and clean, powerful bass. Where competing amplifiers such as the excellent YBA Designs YA201 featured in TPV 73 can sound a bit like contemplative sonic introverts, the ebullient Cambridge puts its lively, engaging sound right out in the open for all to hear. In short, the reasonably priced 840A signals from the outset that it wants to play with the big boys. And in many ways it can.
One important way in which the 840A plays above its pay grade is in carving the leading edges of transients with the sort of energy and definition normally associated with more expensive amplifiers. A multi-faceted musical example will help illustrate this point. I put on Long John Hunter's "Let's Set the Time" from the Untapped Blues Festival 2004 Live album [Bluestopia], and I came away marveling at how energetic and alive the 840A made Hunter and his band sound. If you enjoy listening to (or playing) electric guitar at moderate volume levels, then you already know how sound seems to erupt from guitar amplifiers a split second after the pick sweeps past the guitar strings. In fact, some notes launch so hard that you expect them to become unpleasantly loud. But when recording and playback levels are set just right, the individual notes instead cry out with visceral authority, yet without reaching painful levels. This punchy, evocative sound is exactly what the 840A achieved in reproducing Hunter's guitar solos on "Let's Set the Time."
Similarly, the 840A did a spectacular job with the sound of keyboardist Tommy Washington's electric organ. If you listen closely, you'll observe that some electric organs (typically older Hammonds) produce a soft, scratchy "click" just as their keys are depressed. These clicks might actually be indicative of excess wear in the instrument, but experienced blues keyboardists like Washington use them to give the notes in fast-paced runs a bit more kick and definition. The Cambridge amp nailed the powerful sound of the organ, clicks and all, and it perfectly caught the eerie shimmer of the Leslie rotary speaker used to give the organ its voice (Leslie speakers feature a rotating horn tweeter whose sweep speed can be controlled by a foot pedal).
Finally, the Cambridge did a gutsy job with the sound of Tracy Mortimer's electric bass, which sounds clean, clear, and thunderous on the Untapped Blues Festival disc. Even though four-string basses don't reach down into true low bass territory, they are still difficult to reproduce, partly because they have deceptively complex timbres, and partly because they impose abrupt, large-scale power demands on amplifiers. But even when I cranked "Let's Set the Time" up to very invigorating levels, the Cambridge took Mortimer's chunky, propulsive bass lines in stride while keeping the rest of the band in sharp focus.
Thus far, we've focused on the 840A's strengths, which are wonderful and exciting, but we should also discuss two areas where the amplifier's performance is good, but not great. First, the amplifier's treble response, though clear and well-detailed, is shelved downward a bit, at least relative to some of the more transparent-sounding ultra highend amplifiers I've heard. But don't get me wrong. The 840A's highs never sound "soft" or diffuse; it's just that they are very slightly recessed in the mix. Second, the 840A fails to achieve the sculptural three-dimensionality that competing amplifiers such as the YBA Designs YA201 provide. By A/V standards the Cambridge is an extremely detailed amplifier, but even so it can downplay small sonic cues that could reveal the acoustics of recording venues, or suggest the physical presence of instruments or vocalists. Listening to the 840A is like gazing at a high-resolution photograph, while hearing the YA201 is more like viewing a sculptural object. Good though the photograph may be it never conveys the substance and smooth, continuous shadow detail that the sculpture possesses.

Pima County administrator: "The Loop bike path unites our residents"
by Pima County News on Oct. 05, 2011, under Pima County, Southern Arizona, The Loop, TucsonIn an article in The Explorer this week, Pima County Administrator Chuck Huckelberry writes about The Loop.
"If the amount of use already visible along The Loop is any indication, this new amenity will emerge as one of the most popular places for Pima County residents to spend time exercising outdoors, not just today, but for generations to come.
"The success of this regional project is a model for what can be accomplished through the collaborative efforts of Pima County, Marana, Oro Valley and the cities of Tucson and South Tucson."
He invites the community to participate in Family Bike Day from 9 to 11 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 8, at the Northwest YMCA, 7770 N. Shannon Road, and in the Launch The Loop celebration from 7:30 to 11 a.m. Saturday, Oct. 22 at locations along the newly connected Rillito and Santa Cruz river park paths.

Assad to world community: Try and stop me
The announcement yesterday by the US, the EU, and the UN calling on President Assad of Syria to step down had as much impact as you might expect on the Syrian dictator. None at all: Thousands of Syrians took to the streets on Friday to call for the downfall of President Bashar al-Assad, keeping up the pressure in the five-month uprising a day after an alliance led by the United States toughened sanctions against his government and publicly called on him for the first time to step down. At least 18 people were reported killed, including some soldiers who disobeyed orders to shoot at protesters. The deadly repression, in the face of rising international condemnation of Mr. Assad, suggested his own stubbornness was hardening. Syrians have been demonstrating on Fridays after noon prayers since the uprising began in March, and activists on the official Facebook page for the Syrian revolution were calling this week's demonstrations "Friday of the beginnings of victory." Activists and residents reached in Syria reported gunfire in.... (Read Full Article)

It's a great place to eat german food and drink beer ( they have a great variety of beer!). go while away an evening exploring the surprisingly adventurous cocktail list. The atmosphere is warm and friendly, making this the kind of bar everyone would certainly enjoy.
We are Austrians and we know Austrian / German Food, we did order some original dishes and some beer, the food was just terrible, warmed up in the micro wave and served lukewarm and well warmed up,.. the beer was good no question, but than the service ?? Even as we had been just a few tables filled, we waited... More
This restaurant offers good German/Bavarian food made and organized by the German owners. The restaurant management runs like a German train schedule and you will have a huge variety of beers to choose from (I think 75). We had Käsespätzle, traditional German noodles with cheese. I guess the quantity would have been enough for a hungry 2 meter man and... More
"real" beer garden in Pucon ,Chile; who would have thought......... Elke is great. She was fun to talk with and made everyone feel welcome. We had pizza, beers and dessert. Not exactly a balanced meal, but it was vacation!
If you are in the south of Chile, you really are overwhelmed at the Germanic influence. And Chileans are proud of it! Besides kuchen, however, it is hard to find an authentic German meal! Even if you go to the Club Aleman de Frutillar, you won't get very authentic or even tasty German fare. THIS WHY ONE MUST GO TO... More
I ordered the schnitzel with sauerkraut and apple salad. It was OK. Nothing special. I've had it in Germany (Frankfurt and outskirts) and this one was very standard. It is an OK place to feed yourself with clean food but nothing more.
If you travel to Pucon, BierGarten is a MUST. The place has an excellent BierGarten atmosphere, and has some of the best Bratwurst I have tried, even better than in Germany. Elke, her owner, will personally greet customers and serve them making everybody feel welcomed and satisfied. Do not miss this place if you are in the area. http://www.biergarten.cl/
Much enjoyed the atmosphere and the food. It doesn't get any more home cooked than this! A family run business with great service, good prices and a menu that is traditional and great tasting. I would definitely return!

Hello, I may sound really dumb to all the math gurus here, but it's been a long time since I am studying mathematics investigatory project, but I never found it appealing. In fact I always commit mistakes. I practise a lot, but still my grades do not seem to be improving.

Don't fret my friend. It's just a matter of time before you'll have no trouble in solving those problems in mathematics investigatory project. I have the exact solution for your algebra problems, it's called Algebrator. It's quite new but I assure you that it would be perfect in helping you in your math problems. It's a piece of program where you can answer any kind of algebra problems with ease. It's also user friendly and displays a lot of useful data that makes you understand the subject matter fully.

1.Hey mate, you are on the mark about Algebrator! It is absolutely fab! I downloaded it recently from
after a colleague suggested it to me. Now, all I do is type in the problem from my text book and click on Solve. Bingo! I get a step-by-step solution to my math problem. It's almost like a tutor is teaching it to you. I have been using it for four months and so far, haven't come across any homework that Algebrator can't solve. I have learnt so much from it!

exponential equations, relations and graphing circles were a nightmare for me until I found Algebrator, which is truly the best math program that I have ever come across. I have used it frequently through many algebra classes – Remedial Algebra, Remedial Algebra and Algebra 2. Just typing in the algebra problem and clicking on Solve, Algebrator generates step-by-step solution to the problem, and my algebra homework would be ready. I highly recommend the program.

I hail from the Windy City, The City of Broad Shoulders, Hog Butcher to the world… or however that goes… It's true though, Goosie is a proud Chicago girl. There's no other city like the Chi in the world… and I am in the deepest kind of love with it. I was born & raised here and people tell me I have that "Good fellas" type of Chicaaahgo accent, I don't believe 'em but that's what I've been told! LOL!
Why do I love Chicago, you may ask? Where to begin? Hmmm…
The top 10 reasons I love Chicago….
(in no certain order)
1. The people are REAL, we don't put on airs & pretend we're something we're not.. we're scrappy, we're blue collar, we're as authentic as it gets baby! We're PROUD as hell of where we come from~ we may claim "North" or "West" or neighborhood "Wrigleyville" or "Bucktown" affiliation, but when it all comes down to it, we LOVE that toddlin' town, and would rather die than be from anywhere else! We're fierce about loving our hometown too!
2. Da Bears… Today happens to be a HUGE game for our Bears (2nd round of playoffs against the Seattle Seahawks! GO MONSTERS OF THE MIDWAY!) and it's like the world stops when the Bears play… the grocery stores are virtually empty, everyone puts on their orange, and in my family there is usually some big meal concoted around the Bears games… we love Da Bears and truth be told, YES, we REALLY are like Da Superfans of '85 SNL fame!
3. WE RESPECT THE CHAIR! Where else can you save your parking spot in winter with a folding card chair and have people respect it? This is the way we do it in Chicago: In the winter, if you have street parking, you shovel your own spot in front of your house, and then you put a card chair there to save it so nobody else takes it… EVERYONE respects the card chair!
Believe it or not, some yuppy neighborhoods ( Read More Here) are trying to do away with the generations old card chair tradition… In most neighborhoods, removing someone's chair and parking in their spot is the equivalent of spitting on someone's mother… it's a definite NO-NO! Moving the chair is like signing your own death warrant… no one dares tread those dangerous waters.
This is the biggest joke I have ever seen… I laugh in their general direction
4. Chicago Style Hot Dogs make the world go 'round! Not only are they tasty… the toppings we use are totally unique! No where else in the country do people use the condiments we use on our dogs! We use fresh tomato, relish, mustard, pickle, onion, hot peppers and… wait for it…celery salt on our dogs! NO ketchup you may ask? Hell No! That's by request ONLY! EVEN if you say you want a hot dog with EVERYTHING… Ketchup won't be on it!
5. Wrigley Field! Chicago is home to the "Friendly Confines"! One of the most historical ballparks in the country and we love every ivy covered inch of it!
Whether you are a Cubs fan or one of those other :rolls eyes: Chicago fans Wrigley Field puts on a hellofa party! Cubs games are a ton of fun and a great afternoon (or night since adding lights back in 1988) of family fun! Here's a fun fact about our ivy covered stadium:
Wrigley was the last ballpark to play night games. The lights were finally lit on August 8, 1988, after 5,687 consecutive day games. That game was rained out after 3½ innings, and the first official night game took place the following evening against the New York Mets. Lights had actually been placed in the ballpark for installation in 1941, but Wrigley instead donated them to a shipyard for the war effort the day after Pearl Harbor. In the late 1980s, however, Cubs management insisted that the team was in danger of leaving Wrigley if lights weren't installed, and Major League Baseball threatened to make the Cubs play postseason games at Busch Stadium in St. Louis. (info courtesy of Fun Facts About Wrigley)
*Goose's 1st night game was also my 1st date with Dave, April 27, 1990~against the Padres, LOL
6. Our neighborhood bars! No true Chicagoan has yet to find a corner neighborhood bar with a weekday beer special that s/he does not love!
We Chi-Town folks are just as fiercely loyal to our neighborhood bars as we are about our fair city! Whether it's a crap hole tavern with no windows, save for an odd shaped diamond piece of glass in the front door that lets in one dusty ray of sunshine between the hours of noon-1pm..or whether it's a trendy nightspot, we LOVE "our spots"… we are creatures of habit, and we will continue to patronize the same bar year after year. We know the old timer on the stool at the end of the bar will always be there, we know our beer will be served up nice & warm in the same dirty old glass…but we won't stop going there because it's OUR BAR!
7. THE BLUES! This wouldn't be a blog about Chicago without paying homage to the FANTASTIC musical genre that calls Chicago home! The blues originated in Chicago around the same time as the "Great migration" of southern black workers to find work in the north, such as Chi-Town! Originally, the blues was street-based music, but it evolved to a super popular sound and thank GOD it did! We have soooo many awesome music venues in this city dedicated specifically to the blues~ seriously, if you ever come to Chicago and DON'T go to a place such as Kingston Mines, Buddy Guy's Legends, or the summertime Chicago Blues Festival then you are missing out.
Buddy Guy, an amazing blues artist.
8. St. Patrick's Day in Chicago kicks the blarney out of any other city, hands down! We dye the Chicago river green, we throw an amazing party filled with parades that almost rivals mardi gras in my opinion, and we stay drunk for days on green beer! If you're planning a trip to the Chi, DEFINITELY plan it around St. Patty's day if you're looking for an amazing party trip!
Chicago St. Patrick's Day 2011 Events & Party Guide
9. John Hughes! Who doesn't LOVE movies such as Breakfast Club, Home Alone, Sixteen Candles and the pinnacle of Chicago filmography… Ferris Buehler's Day Off?! That man was amazing, God rest his soul! These movies capture Chicago on film like no other, and I do believe you have to be a Chicagoan to appreciate the subtle nuances of our city captured in his films: from the Evanston neighborhood shots to the house across the street from my house in
(a lesser known movie by Hughes filmed almost exclusively in the suburb I call home, West Chicago!) RIP John Hughes
10. Last but definitely NOT least…Mayor Richard M. Daley! This man is a freakin character! He embodies everything there is to love about Chicago… he's a short, fireplug of a fiesty guy!
He says what he thinks, and doesn't give a rip who knows it! You either love the guy, or you hate the guy… and there's not much in between~ but he's been our mayor forever it seems, and this year, we will say good bye to the Daley era in Chicago. Being the nostalgic gal, I am, it's kinda sad in my opinion. Here's some hilarious Mayor Daley quotes that will be sure to put a smile on your mugs:
To a reporter, responding to Blagohevich's claim that the governor's impeachment trial was the Illinois Senate's attempt to remove him so it could increase taxes:
(On his brother, Bill dropping a bid for Illinois governor)
haaaaaaa!! Love that guy… he makes me laugh….

Kyle (Douglas Booth) and Lola (Miley Cyrus) in "LOL."
Courtesy Liongate
"DETENTION," starring Josh Hutcherson and Shanley Caswell. At first glance, "Detention" looks like just another meta-horror "Scream" rip-off, but writer-director Joseph Kahn's well-received genre-masher manages to be clever without being annoying -- no mean feat for a project this self-aware.
"Hunger Games" mini-hunk Hutcherson leads your average ragtag group of high-schoolers fighting back against the serial killer currently picking off fellow students left and right. Leavening this potentially grim scenario is a wealth of pop-culture references that manage to entertain rather that distract, and a terrific supporting cast that even finds a (mostly serious) role for comedian Dane Cook as a hard-nosed principal. Very well done overall, crafted with an obvious affection for bygone horror flicks and teen dramas. Rated R. Running time: 1:33
Suggested retail price: $26.99; Blu-ray $30.99
"LOL," starring Miley Cyrus and Demi Moore. With "Bieber Fever" having usurped the 'tween pop throne once claimed by the former Ms. Montana, the starlet sets her sights on cinema with this compelling if not terribly probing high-school drama. Cyrus navigates the treacherous waters of adolescence, maintaining a relationship with her would-be rocker boyfriend and facing off against her permanently stressed-out mom (Moore). Also, lots of texting, as the title would indicate. Surly teens and fans of Cyrus are clearly the demographic most likely to be entertained by this well-meaning but unavoidably mopey feature. Special features include several making-of featurettes and a commentary from director Lisa Azuelos and cast members Ashley Hinshaw and Lina Esco. Rated PG-13. Running time: 1:37
Suggested retail price: $19.98; Blu-ray $24.99
"HATFIELDS & MCCOYS," starring Kevin Costner and Bill Paxton. Originally broadcast on The History Channel, this faithful and entirely captivating recreation of the feud to end all feuds pits former Confederate allies "Devil" Anse Hatfield (Costner) and Randall McCoy (Paxton) against one another in a notorious series of misunderstandings that eventually led to an all-out bloodbath and became the stuff of legend. Both one of the best TV movies and Westerns in years, Costner and company revive an undervalued genre with class and style. Not rated; contains violence and language. Running time: 4:50
Suggested retail price: $45.99; Blu-ray $55.99
"FOREVER MARILYN," starring Marilyn Monroe and Charles Coburn. Fads and celebrities come and go, but the mystical beauty of Marilyn Monroe never strays too far from the public consciousness, and this collection of remastered classics should go a long way toward her continued preservation. The films included in the set are the following: "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes" (1953); "How to Marry a Millionaire" (1953); "River of No Return" (1954); "There's No Business Like Show Business" (1954); "The Seven Year Itch" (1955); "Some Like it Hot" (1959) and "The Misfits" (1961). Not rated; contains mild sexual content. Running time: 12:23
Suggested retail price: $99.98
"TOTAL RECALL: MIND-BENDING EDITION," starring Arnold Schwarzenegger and Sharon Stone. Gleefully violent, rather loose 1990 adaptation of a Philip K. Dick story gives Schwarzenegger one of his best roles as the perpetually angry and confused Douglas Quaid, who may or may not be a secret agent fighting bad guys (including villain extraordinaire Michael Ironside of "ER") on Mars.
This is released in tandem with the 2012 remake, but we can't see how that one will possibly compare to the awesomely rubbery makeup effects and general nasty attitude on display here, courtesy of the always entertaining Paul Verhoeven ("Starship Troopers"). Rated R for graphic violence, nudity and language. Running time: 1:53
Suggested retail price: $14.99
"LAST DAYS HERE," documentary. This acclaimed doc from directors Don Argott ("Rock School") and Demian Fenton is about as personal as movies get. We're introduced to Bobby Liebling, an unsung '70s pioneer in the realm of heavy metal with his band Pentagram. Underground recordings of Pentagram have become something of a sensation in the collector world, a fact Liebling is only dimly aware of until making the acquaintance of Sean Pelletier, a hardcore fan with some connections looking to put Bobby back in the spotlight where he belongs. Hampering this possibility to a profound extent is Bobby's crack and heroin habit, and a lack of interaction with humankind due to a lifetime spent in his parents' basement.

Lindsay Lohan will not be released this week, according to the spokeman for the Los Angeles Sheriff's Department. Lohan's lawyer, Shawn Chapman Holley, told reporters that she hoped that over-crowding might cause the sheriff's department to release Lohan sometime late this week. But sheriff's spokesman Steve Whitmore said, "Nothing has changed. When she was incarcerated I said a couple of weeks and it hasn't been a couple of weeks. That turns out to be the first part of next week. It could be Sunday, Monday, Tuesday, something like that."
Lohan had a relatively lonely weekend, according to People Magazine. The Century Regional Detention Facility only permits a certain number of visits a week, and Lohan burned through that count before the weekend arrived. She was left with only her lawyer as a visitor this weekend, which was a downer for the troubled actress. "It was hard for her not to see her family over the weekend. She obviously wants to see her family," attorney Shawn Chapman Holley told the magazine. But no fear, Monday afternoon her mother Dina and sister Ali arrived for visitation with Lindsay.
Meanwhile, TMZ reports that a pair of attorneys representing a class action lawsuit against the Los Angeles County Sheriff's office wants Lindsay to give a deposition about her experience of being booked into the Lynwood Correctional Facility. The class action lawsuit argues that female prisoners are forced to strip naked in an unsanitary parking lot, visible to others, and are subjected to strip & cavity searches in plain view of others. Sheriff's officials have said that Lohan was treated like any other prisoner, so they want to know whether she was subjected to the same treatment.

Mel Gibson's taped rants against ex-girlfriend Oksana Grigorieva may have put him into a little hot water with the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement agency. The San Diego Minutemen, who campaign against illegal immigration, have reported Gibson to the agency after hearing the actor refer to a nanny in one of the audio tapes as a derogatory term frequently used against illegal Mexican immigrants. The Minutemen wonder if the nanny, or any other Gibson employee, is an illegal immigrant, and they've been told by ICE that an investigation will be opened against Gibson.
A seventh tape has been released, according to People magazine, in which Gibson tells Grigorieva that he regrets that he ever had a child with her, and tells her to return to her ex-boyfriend, actor Timothy Dalton, if he is such a great father compared to Gibson.
Speaking of those now infamous rants, TMZ reports that alcohol did not play a part in Gibson's mood on those tapes. In custody hearings, both sides have acknowledged that Gibson has been completely sober since his 2006 DUI arrest.
• • •
The custody battle between Jon and Kate Gosselin appears to have been settled. TMZ reports that the estranged reality couple have reached a confidential agreement, according to legal papers in Pennsylvania. In April, Jon Gosselin filed papers in Pennsylvania court seeking full custody of the eight Gosselin children, and sought changes to his child support obligations. A TMZ source says of he settlement: "An official agreement between Jon and Kate has been reached and they will be working together for the benefit of their children."
• • •
Charlie Sheen will be back on the set of 'Two and a Half Men' according to a TMZ source, who tells the site that a plea agreement is in place which would allow the actor to work as soon as next week. The show is set to resume taping on August 6th, and although a plea deal has not been finalized, Sheen is reportedly expected at the set for those tapings. Sheen has a date in Aspen court on August 12th for his ongoing domestic violence case.

Wheeler, Campbell file for arbitration |
07.05.10 at 5:18 pm ET |
Agent Matt Keator has confirmed to WEEI.com that Bruins left wing Blake Wheeler filed for arbitration before Monday's 5 p.m. deadline. The Boston Globe was the first to report the story. Center Gregory Campbell also filed, as he was on the list of players to elect the process by the NHLPA Monday night.
Though Wheeler and Campbell both filed, a possibility still exists that the team could reach agreements with the forwards before their respective arbitration hearings, as the team did last summer with Matt Hunwick.
Defenseman Mark Stuart, the other Bruin eligible for arbitration, did not file, as Keator, who represents both Stuart and Wheeler, indicated that the two sides felt they were close enough to reaching a one-year deal that filing wouldn't be necessary.
Wheeler had 38 points this past season for the Bruins, scoring 18 goals while playing in all 82 games.

creepy. i don't know if you know much about homeopathy but there is a giant attack on that right now, for about the last 2 years. obviously funded by big pharma.
well, i don't think mexico will ever do that. i'm thankful i have the know-how to pick my own and help others.
!soil first! every garden is an experiment no experiment is a failure
------------------------------------** Hidden Content eat lots of salad! Hidden Content **-----------------------------------
This makes me sad in a way that I lack words to describe. I couldn't tell from the article... will the plants themselves become illegal? Or just selling them?
...resists urge to type out useless rant...
From what i've researched so far only the marketing is currently at issue. However, given the purposes behind the plot, namely the weakening of the populace health wise, i can only think that home growing and using will be scrutinized at some point, as well. Needless to say, psychopaths can always manufacture needed justifications for all of their crimes
We knew this was gonna happen since we were kids. But as it's fastly approaching, it's a bit scary. How does one truly topple the beast? lol
Yea, it definitley is disconcerting, sometimes I don't think we can and that maybe going off away from the sickness to achieve some sort of inner peace, self understanding and mastery is a better use of my time. Then I can leave and go play in some other universe, because I don't like the people here, they are mean! *stomps around*

Critical Condition
Industry Relations Task Force lobbies for dealers
As the number of lawn and garden dealers has continued to dwindle, more dealers are feeling as though their voice has been lost. As one dealer put it, "Manufacturers act like we need them to survive, but I think they need us more. Until all outdoor power equipment becomes disposable, dealers are badly needed."
Servicing dealers are undoubtedly needed. The question is: how many?
According to the U.S. Census Bureau, the number of "lawn and garden equipment and supplies stores" dropped 12% from 2002 to 2008. The number of "outdoor power equipment stores" specifically dropped 7%. The attrition of service-only businesses has been even more dramatic. The number of "lawn and garden equipment repair and maintenance" businesses has dropped 28% since 2004, and 47% since 2001.
Nonetheless, 2002-2008 represented a period of strong growth in the industry. Now—post-economic collapse where consumers are hanging onto equipment longer and altogether shopping differently—Green Industry observers wonder just how many equipment retail and/or service centers are needed to satisfy demand.
Regardless of the number, it's important to remember that the manufacturer/dealer relationship is symbiotic. The North American Equipment Dealers Association (NAEDA) is trying to draw attention to that often disregarded fact. They've established an OPE Industry Relations Task Force that will regularly bring dealers and manufacturers together to discuss important issues.
Internet selling
Selling parts and equipment on the Internet is at the top of the priority list, according to Mike Williams, NAEDA's treasurer and vice president of government relations. How pricing is published and how territories are protected are among the biggest challenges.
Manufacturers selling direct to end-users is definitely a growing issue. Dealers are also concerned about heavily discounted Internet prices. When a consumer sees this type of pricing on the Internet, and then stops into a dealership and sees the dealer's price, the dealer is put into a difficult position.
The same can be said for parts. "It's not that dealers feel they can't compete when it comes to Internet parts sales," Williams points out. "The problem emerges when you have someone who's undercutting everyone else and then gets rewarded with a volume discount."
"With outdoor power equipment there aren't always well-defined territories," says Paul Kindinger, president and CEO of NAEDA. "On the ag side there are, so there are more ways to police and control Internet selling." For instance, financial incentives that encourage dealers to only sell within their territory sometimes prove effective.
That doesn't stop the box stores or online wholesalers like Power Equipment Direct from doing what they do, though. "There are way too many Internet sites selling parts and equipment," one dealer said. "Manufacturers say they monitor it closely, which I don't think is true. But if they do monitor it, they sure don't do much about stopping it."
The problem is that the Internet is becoming too enticing for some to resist. Roughly 163 million people bought something online in 2009. That number is expected to grow to 201 million by 2015. Online retail sales are soon expected to surpass the $200 billion-per-year mark.
It's not just books, video games and shoes that consumers are buying online either. Small appliances and garden tools both made the top 20.
"The Internet has some outstanding potential for us dealers to benefit from," says Josh Ahearn of Ahearn Equipment in Spencer, MA. "We're hoping that manufacturers will work to adopt comprehensive Internet marketing policies. Overall I'm not opposed to Internet selling, as long as it's locally targeted and done responsibly. It would also help if manufacturers did more to educate consumers on the benefits of purchasing equipment locally."

"Isn't this beautiful," said Senator Bill Nelson to an audience of 450 rapt Orion team members. "I know there is a lot of people here who can't wait to get their hands and fingers on this hardware."
The very first test flight will take the Orion module further out into space than any other man-rated module since 1972. Explains Orion project manager Mark Geyer, "We are going to get about 84 percent of a lunar entry velocity, which is really going to stress the heat shield, which is exactly what we're trying to do."
The Orion module is part of the SLS initiative, aiming to restore NASA's space launch capability. Built from the scrapped Orion moon program, these vehicles will be able to carry massive payloads into orbit including, eventually, the Orion capsule. The first SLS launch is expected in 2017, meaning that the Orion capsule will have to be launched from a different lifter.
If all goes according to plan, NASA will have man-capable space launch capability by 2021.

Psycho from Texas
Wheeler (John King III) is a sociopathic career thug who has been summoned to a small town to abduct a retired oil millionaire. He and a local yokel named Slick (Tommy Lamey) are simply to hold William Phillips (Herschell Mays) in a remote cabin for 48 hours until the ransom is delivered, but Wheeler has a nasty violent streak, and will kill at the slightest provocation.

While Wheeler ventures into town to score some grass at a local pool hall, Phillips escapes into the woods, with Slick in hot, but clumsy, pursuit. Meanwhile, the millionaire's daughter (Candy Dee) is at the family home, preparing for a party to announce her engagement to the very man who has arranged this kidnapping. Wheeler arrives, talks his way in, and is compelled to kill. Will the sheriff put all the pieces together in time to save the town from this bloodthirsty Texan? ~ Fred Beldin, Rovi

In the subsequent riot, the crazed cons are all shot dead by the brutal guards, but remain so well-preserved that they manage to rise up from their mass grave to seek the blood of their tormentors -- including the warden -- armed with a variety of sharp implements from the prison toolshed.

A young medical student named Mark (Marland Proctor) inherits a decrepit ranch/tourist attraction from his late uncle, and must turn a profit with the enterprise within six months in order to possess it fully. He invites his fiancee, Brenda (Claudia Ream) and a gaggle of their freaky hippie friends to start living on the property and brainstorm some ways to make "Callahan's Old West" a success. However, the ranch's caretaker, Solomon (B. G. Fisher) warns the kids that an eerie spectral presence haunts the area, a headless horseman who rides through the night seeking revenge for a deadly shootout that occurred at the ranch in 1928. Sure enough, the mysterious horseman begins appearing, splashing blood from a disembodied head over the frightened hippies and driving some to accidental deaths. When gold is discovered in the land the ranch occupies, suspicions arise that perhaps the headless rider isn't a ghostly presence at all. ~ Fred Beldin, Rovi
