Despite the fact that basic math and science cause me to bleed from my ears, I once confidently oversaw the design and construction of a fully functional nuclear power plant that provided safe energy to thousands of people. Hell, I even placed it next to a playground. And for decades it never once experienced so much as the slightest hint of disaster.
Until the monster came.
"Sir, you better take a look at this."
"Aww, jeez."
Yes, that was a rather dark day in the thriving metropolis of Jarrett-Is-Awesome-Ville.
So, in response, as mayor, I quickly approved funding for a new football stadium. Which didn't seem to help with disaster management.
"Sir, the people would like a word with you."
Of course, I was never really mayor of a town -- I don't wear pants nearly often enough to hold down that kind of job -- but I did enthusiastically play one on the classic city-building simulator, "SimCity."
So, you can only imagine the excitement I felt recently when the Internet suddenly starting buzzing about the upcoming release of a brand new version of the only video game I ever loved. And as more and more mentions of it started popping up all over the Web, one thing became perfectly clear: I wasn't alone in my undying passion for building fake roads.
That said, it's been many years and several epic steps in computer technology since I've actually played the game (it debuted in 1989). However, on March 5, those of us who have long fancied ourselves as urban planners will get a completely modern version of "SimCity" to once again assist us in the gleeful neglect of our jobs, family, and personal hygiene.
Which, when you think about it, is fairly amazing.
"Sim City" shouldn't be fun. Not even a little bit. Essentially, it's local governance. And from someone who just went through the process of obtaining a real-life building variance, I can assure you that City Hall isn't exactly the ball pit at Chuck E. Cheese. And it probably has more traces of feces.
Yet, somehow, laying out your very own town from scratch, managing its budget, and occasionally destroying the whole community with monsters and earthquakes is unquestionably appealing.
The true beauty of "SimCity" is that for every disgruntled person who ever said, "This whole place is run by idiots," the game offers a way for you to prove to the world -- or at least, maybe, to your cat -- that you can do better.
And, if nothing else, you can definitely take out all your day-to-day frustrations by bulldozing a train station. You know, without actually bulldozing a train station. Which, after a full week of intense investigative journalism, I can now confirm is "illegal."
So, the other day, as a remarkably distinguished member of the international media, I had the opportunity to play a pre-release trial version of the new "SimCity," thus making it a five-star weekend.
Whatever. You have your major accomplishments in life. I have mine.
Unfortunately, however, on that beautiful and momentous Saturday I actually had to borrow my friend's PC laptop to do so -- which made me feel both confused and dirty. Or at least more so than normal.
Sadly, the Mac version of the game won't be available until later in the spring. So, the cool kids will just have to wait. Which is going to be tough.
Seriously, if I was a grizzly bear I'd probably just hibernate until late April, wake up, stretch, murder a bunch of salmon, and then immediately download the new "SimCity."

Great property, too bad the service is not so great, certainly not what we expected for a place that says it's 5 stars...more like 3...part of the reason you go to a 5 star beach hotel with infinity pool is to lounge by the pool enjoy drinks and get good service.

When my tub got a crack, I had to tear it out with a sledge hammer. Once it was out, I didn't have the money for repairs so here it sits - empty, empty, empty.
The tub had a crack,
it had to go.
The only thing is,
I ran out of dough.
No tub, no tile,
and carpet to boot,
this was going to take
a whole lotta loot!
The ugly bath contest
was a blessing you see.
Knights in tile armor
will be the key.
To a brand new bathroom,
tub, tile the works.
Tile Meister and Channel 5
will work out the quirks.
If only I win
the ugliest bath contest,
Tile Meister will be there
to do their best!!
No tub, no tile, and carpet to boot

PIC GALLERY: Night of controversy at Colston Avenue ends in last-gasp defeat for Carshalton Athletic
9:47am Wednesday 25th September 2013 in Sport By Tim Ashton
Tommy Williams watched his Robins throw away a half-time lead at Colston Avenue on Tuesday night, and then slammed the actions of both the referee and his own skipper.
The Robins were on track for a second consecutive Ryman Premier victory after Steve Butterworth gave them a 1-0 advantage over Harrow Borough.
However, the match was plunged into controversy early in the second half when Robins skipper Adriano Moraes was sent off for an apparent headbutt in the Harrow dug out as he tried to retrieve the ball from the visitors' bench.
Moreover, it the second time this season that Moraes has seen red - he was about to start the ban for his first dismissal in the FA Cup defeat at Leatherhead - and he is likely to face a lengthy suspension of at least six games.
The melee also ended with Harrow assistant manager Darron Wilkinson being sent to the dressing room.
It all started so well: Steve Butterworth celebrates his opener against Harrow on Tuesday night All pictures: SP79525
With the distraught Moraes watching from the sidelines, Harrow's Ronnel Dennis levelled from the spot after Paris Hamilton-Downes' clumsy challenge on Daniel Llacer.
Referee Paul Yates then restored the numerical parity by sending off of Harrow's James Burgess for a heavy challenge on Tommy Bradford.
However, worse was to come for the Robins in the dying moments when Jordan Berry's weak daisy-cutter from outside the area beat Dean Sendker for the winner.
Williams said: "The sending off obviously changed it, we were in control ahead of that and so we're very disappointed.
"Their assistant manager got involved and grabbed Adriano as he tried to get the ball back, and there was a bit of a melee with a lot of their players getting involved.
"I am not sure how much Adriano did, but he should not have got himself in that situation in the first place.
"He knows how I feel. We pride ourselves on our discipline, it is a community club. He knows what I expect."
He added: "As for their penalty, it looked like one from where I was but I think the referee could not wait to give it.
"It is a tough job, not many people would like to do it, but his performance was poor – and the Harrow management said the same thing."
Last-gasp woe: Dean Snedker pulled off a fine save in the first half, pictured, but was beaten by a weak effort in the dying moments of the game to gift Harrow all three points
Williams defended his young goalkeeper for the winning goal claiming the ball hit a divot to bounce over his head, adding: "It was a soft winner - it took a massive bobble off the turf, which seems to sum up our luck at the moment."
The Robins, who go to early promotion-chasers Hornchurch on October 1, have seven points from 11 games and are third from bottom.
However, Williams is convinced they are heading in the right direction.
"I am 100 per cent behind this club, I believe what we are doing is the right way," he said.
"We are a young side, and maybe a little naivety creeps in now and again, but I believe come the end of the season, we will be fine."
Handbags: Everyone has a friendly chat before the referee showed red cards to the Robins skipper and the Harrow assistant manager
Gutted: Adriano Moraes trudges off
So close: Steve Butterworth rues a missed chance to make it 2-0 - in fact, the Harrow keeper Berkley Laurencin made a fine save
Shield: Kieran Woodley holds off Danny Leech
Noble effort: Apparently it is Lord Luke Pigden, after his girlfriend brought him the title for his birthday
Battle: Steve Butterworth holds off the attention of the Harrow skipper
Close: Quincy Rowe, left, shadows Jordan Berry - the man who would win it for Harrow
No further old son: Quincy Rowe gets the challenge in on Jordan Berry
Slider: Luke Pigden on the deck at Colston Avenue
One in the eye: Steve Butterworth comes off worse after the celebrations that followed his strike
Solid: Bruce Hogg clears the Carshalton lines
Shame: Dean Snedker's impressive game between the sticks ended on a sour note
Head-scratcher: Tommy Williams has much to think about

This is a poster I did for our upcoming MFA show. Its title is "This one's for you". I come from a long line of strong military men (dad, grandfather, great grandfather) who have shown me great leadership, and I wanted to honor them. Pop is what my family calls our grandfathers; my dad is now one of them to my niece and nephew.

ESCANABA -- The Escanaba Salvation Army's food pantry is not prepared for the 30 percent increase in families they anticipate to serve this Thanksgiving season.
While food donations remain steady, the food is flying off the shelves almost faster than it's being brought in, say officials. The Salvation Army served 9,501 individuals when the fiscal year ended in September.
It was a 13 percent increase from 2010. Officials say they're especially in need of meat like ham, turkey, and even venison, for holiday meals, but even the smallest donations count.
"And anything that you can help with, whether it's canned food, boxed food, monetary donations, this is how we make it through our holidays, is with you," said Salvation Army Caseworker Tammy Bigelow.
St. Vincent's in Gladstone said food donations are slow right now, but they expect to get a lot more help from the community and schools, especially during the week of Thanksgiving.

Barry Levinson's "The Bay" is another found-footage shocker, but with a welcome difference. Instead of being cobbled together from shaky-cam footage allegedly shot by clueless teenagers whose video shows lots of their own shoes, this one is built around suppressed video allegedly filmed by a professional cameraman for public access TV.
It also incorporates cell phone video, Skype interviews and video shot on board a boat by a young couple who have chosen the wrong day to take their baby out for a cruise. The theory is that all this material has been kept secret in a cover-up of the pollution of Chesapeake Bay (which in fact is heavily polluted, but never mind).
As the film opens, a young TV journalist named Donna Thompson (Kether Donohue) recalls a terrible July 4th a few years earlier when a waterborne parasite began to attack swimmers and other local residents. Identified as isopods, the creatures have mutated into carnivores the size of big cockroaches and begin to devour their victims both from the outside in and the inside out — a nice touch, that.
The reasons for the mutation are hinted: run-off from a giant chicken farm, where the poultry feed is laced with steroids, and a possible radiation leak from a nearby nuclear reactor. It goes without saying that the local mayor (Frank Deal) denies any problem, having learned from "Jaws" that it is better for people to die than for tourism to be affected.
Local doctors and police try desperately to call for help, but find it difficult to get a response on a busy holiday. Contacts between an emergency room doctor and the Center for Disease Control in Atlanta are well done, and not reassuring.
Although there are some scary moments here, and a lot of gruesome ones, this isn't a horror film so much as a faux eco-documentary. Levinson, a major director ("Rain Man," "Wag the Dog") seems more interested in spreading a green message than terrifying viewers. Nothing wrong with that, but audiences lured in by the trailers may be disappointed. At least the film is watchable and audible, something you can't say for most found-footage films, including great stretches of the "Paranormal Activity" series, which is turning into a parasite of its own.

Original Message
Let ye know now the true Good Shepard that ye seek.
Let a mystery be given unto ye to know the times in which I shall do these things.
1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four cbeasts saying, Come and see.
2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
3 And when he had opened the asecond seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see.
4 And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take apeace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword.
5 And when he had opened the third seal, I heard the third beast say, Come and see. And I beheld, and lo a black horse; and he that sat on him had a pair of balances in his hand.
6 And I heard a voice in the midst of the four beasts say, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see thou hurt not the oil and the wine.
7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with asword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
Let it be known the first four seals to be broken also represent the four horsemen of the apocalyse, let it be known the whitehorse represents the deciever whom shall bring forth the world war to come he that is the Antichrist the king over the antichrists.
Let it be known that the world war will bring pestilence, famine and death. That those whom die in it shall be taken to Hell for they died in their sins. Death comes and Hades follows soon after.
Let ye know also the ecomony shall collapse for a time and a new system come out of the ruins having power of the first system of beast, in which money shall no longer be the way but a new system shall come of simlar design.
Behold I am He whom spoke these things to John the revelator and showed him the things to come and now I translate it for you so ye may know when I begin to break the Seal. Know this all those whom have pretended to be Me shall have great woes in times to come as the Seals are broken and if they repent not Hell shall have them. Many have spoken in my name without my authority and corrupted the field with their poisons.
I am the Truth the Light and the Life no man women nor child goeth unto the Father but by me, I am the bridge to the eternitys there is no future beyond Hell outside coming through me. Man is bound and destined for condemnation and eternal suffering I have offered the world and those whom would believe and follow the example and be humble in doing so a alternative outcome.
Hell is all around you your universe is the realm of darkness the Light holds it back for a time, the spirit is protected while in the body but the body is also corrupt and binding to the spirit. Many whom have died did not go to good places very few even make it to the place of waiting and none but a few have seen Heaven.

I've always longed for a straight smile; when I was 12 I saw the Orthodontist for the first time, then my parents got divorced. Back in the early 70's, my single mom with 4 kids couldn't afford braces. I didn't smile much, more a of a smerk when it was time for pictures ( I still do it).My son ended up with the same problems with his teeth and I got him braces..twice. So, about ten years ago, I went to an Orthodontist and asked about braces; he laughed. A couple of years ago, I tried to win a new smile through a local radio contest...I guess my smile didn't suffer from "meth mouth" or lack of care enough. Although I'm older than others that will enter this contest, how wonderful would it be for me to finally be able to REALLY smile and not be self conscious. Thank you for your consideration.
make me smile I've always wanted to

>One of the very noticeable developments in crime fiction in the last decades has been what I'll call "themed" crime fiction. I'm not talking here of larger themes such as holidays, nor am I talking about sub-genres of crime fiction, such as noir, spy thrillers, cozies or police procedurals. I'm referring here to mystery novels that are centered on a topic, such as, medicine, sports, or specialized areas like wine-making. Themed crime fiction has the advantage of drawing those who might not otherwise be interested in mysteries towards the larger genre. It also allows crime fiction fans to learn something about an interesting topic. There are, of course, distinct disadvantages, too. For instance, themed crime fiction can turn away potential readers (e.g. "I'm not interested in football; why would I read a football mystery?"). There's also a delicate balance required for a themed novel. The focus in a well-written crime fiction novel is on the mystery – the crime at the center of the story – and on the characters involved in it. Too much deviation into, say, the intricacies of a toxicity study (for medical-themed novels) or the details of a wine-tasting event (for vineyard-centered novels) can take the focus away from what's supposed to be the main idea of a crime fiction novel – the mystery itself. That said, though, themed crime fiction has become increasingly popular, and has meant that many talented writers have been able to reach new mystery fans.
One of the best known themes for crime fiction is the medical theme. I discussed this particular kind of theme in a post from last month, so I'm not going to repeat myself here. Suffice it to say, though, that authors such as Robin Cook and Michael Palmer have made the hospital and doctor's office some of the most popular settings in crime fiction. Authors such as Kathy Reichs have also popularized medical mysteries (although some say that novels about forensic medicine may deserve their own category). But that theme didn't start with those authors. Thomas Scortia and Frank Robinson's 1978 novel, The Nightmare Factor had a chilling medical theme, an deliberate epidemic of a virulent and highly contagious strain of influenza. Even earlier, series such as Helen Wells' and Julie Campbell Tatham's Cherry Ames series for younger readers focused on medical settings.
Another popular theme in crime fiction is sports. Sports and crime fiction "fit" together, possibly because sports can be very, very competitive; this allows for many believable motives for murder. Sports also attract gambling, and the win-at-any-cost thinking of some in sports also leads to drug (ab)use, and those also make for compelling plots and believable motives for all kinds of crime. Dick Francis' Sid Halley novels, for instance, take place in the world of horse racing. Halley is a former champion jockey, but, due to an injury, can no longer ride. So he's become a private investigator who specializes in solving mysteries related to racetracks, stables and horses.
More recently, Michael Balkind's mysteries give us a look at the world of professional golf. Balkind's novels focus on PGA champion Reid Clark, who's got a reputation for being difficult, although he is at the top of his career. He works with his business partner, friend and agent, Buck Green and investigator Jay Scott. In Dead Ball, for instance, Scott helps Clark and Green investigate the murder of Clark's best friend, Bob Thomas, who's found dead on the grounds of AllSport, a large golfing complex he helped to create in New York's Catskill Mountains. AllSport's purpose among other things, is to introduce golf to inner-city young people, but when Thomas' body is found, the facility is locked down until Clark, Scott and Green can find out who murdered Bob Thomas.
Harlan Coben's Myron Bolitar series is another example of a sports-themed series. Bolitar is a former college basketball star, whose dreams of a professional basketball career ended when he suffered a knee injury. After getting his law degree, Bolitar became a sports agent. Now one of the more sought-after agents in the business, Bolitar frequently gets involved in his clients' lives. That includes clients who are mixed up in crime. In Coben's Bolitar novels, the reader goes beyond the basketball court, and gets a look at merchandising, betting, drug abuse, and some of the other less-than-desirable aspects of the world of sports.
Another very popular theme in today' crime fiction is what I'll refer to as specialized themes. These are novels that are centered on a particular kind of business, art, craft or skill. One of them is wine-making. Ellen Crosby's Wine Country Mystery series, for instance, gives readers an "inside look" at the operation of a Blue Ridge Mountains, Virgnia, winery. The winery is owned and operated by Lucie Montgomery, who had been living in the South of France, but was suddenly called on to run the business when her father, who'd owned the winery, died mysteriously. Michele Scott's Wine Lover's Mystery series also focuses on making wine and wine pairings, and allows readers to see the inner workings of a large Napa Valley winery, where her sleuth, Nikki Sands, is the wine manager at Malveaux Estates Winery.
Another "specialized" kind of mystery features antiques, antique dealing and antique shops. Jonathan Gash's Lovejoy series is an interesting example of how the antiques trade can lend itself to a crime fiction plot. Lovejoy is an East Anglia antiques dealer who's rather shady and sometimes unscrupulous. He's got an almost extrasensory perception, though, when it comes to telling whether something is a genuine, valuable antique or part of a scam. In especially the earlier Lovejoy novels, readers learn the "ins and outs" of the antiques industry, and Lovejoy himself is an interesting sleuth, since he doesn't exactly keep to the "straight and narrow" path.
A lighter series of novels about antiques is Jane K. Cleland's Josie Prescott novels. Prescott is an antiques appraiser and dealer Originally with Frisco's, a large New York auction house, Prescott left the firm when her employer was caught in a price-fixing scam, and returned to her native New England. Now, she works as an appraiser in Rocky Point, New Hampshire. Through Prescott, readers get an "inside look" at bidding wars, antique scams, and other realities of the antique world.
There are many, many other themed novels, too, that feature weaving, knitting, fishing, veterinary medicine and many other choices. The one topic you'll notice that I haven't mentioned here is food. That's because there are so many food-related mystery novels that they deserve their own discussion (my post on this topic from November is here). There's no doubt, though, that cooking, catering, baking and other food-related business lend themselves to crime fiction, too.
Themed mysteries often appeal to those who might not otherwise enjoy crime fiction. In that sense, they broaden the genre's audience. They also can provide interesting information, and they often take place in interesting contexts. On the other hand, themed mysteries can focus a story too far away from the center of any good crime fiction novel – the mystery plot itself. What's your view? Do you enjoy themed novels? What themes do you read if you do?
*Note – You'll notice that I didn't mention Agatha Christie's novels at all in this post. That's because her novels arguably focused more on situations, characters, relationships and interactions more than on particular themes. We could argue, though, that some of her novels, such as Death in the Clouds (AKA Death in the Air), Murder on the Orient Express (AKA Murder in the Calais Coach), and The Mystery of the Blue Train (among others) were centered on the theme of traveling. Other novels she wrote could be grouped around other themes. But they're not tightly related within themes, so I didn't include them. But I couldn't let a post go by without discussing Christie's work. : ).

Henry thought it would be good to have some cold coconut milk and stuck a can into the fridge for a couple of hours. When he opened it he noticed that it had gotten very thick on top, so he scooped it out and noticed that it had separated from the coconut water.

Texthelp were delighted for the recent recognition as one of the UK's most profitable businesses, receiving a ranking of 55 in the Sunday Times PwC Profit Track 100 2012.
Texthelp along with Chain Reaction Cycles were the only two Northern Ireland companies to be ranked in the Sunday Times PwC Profit Track 100, which ranks the 100 private companies with the fastest-growing profits over the last three years of available audited accounts.
Texthelp Systems began in 1996 with very few employees working on a small range of basic software programs to help people overcome their physical and communication issues. Over the last 15 years we have continued to be at the forefront of assistive software development, designing products to help support and improve the lives of people who have difficulty reading and writing. Texthelp now employs over 100 staff between its Antrim and Woburn (US) offices.
Kevin MacAllister, Northern Ireland partner and private business leader at PwC, said: "In a region where a dynamic private business sector is essential to rebalance the economy, it's great to see two companies showcasing the region's private sector. It's dynamic private businesses like Texthelp and Chain Reaction that can set an example to the rest of the Northern Ireland private sector and demonstrate how determined and export-focused companies can help economic recovery and growth."
