Engage students not already drawn to computing by creating academic and social environments where these students feel like they belong. Students respond positively to solving real-life problems that draw on their existing knowledge and interests and that involve collaboration in hands-on projects. Globaloria is the country's largest social learning network of schools and community centers using a game design curriculum to develop students' digital literacies, computing knowledge, and global citizenship skills.
Members of the Social Science Advisory Board (SSAB) support the National Center for Women & Information Technology (NCWIT) through their research and knowledge about women and information technology. The depth and breadth of perspectives and approaches that SSAB members and visitors bring to the study of women and computing are illustrated in examples of their recent research projects.

What is the result of adding half the extract later in the boil? ie - I've got 6 ibs of dry light malt extract and 1 ibs of 30L crystal. I was planning on steeping the crystal for 30 min / then adding 3 ibs of the extract at 60 min / then add the other 3 ibs extract at 30 min.
Also, I know the longer hops boil the more bitterness. But at about 20 min added is that aroma and then at about 10 min is that flavor? And what is the bitterness/flavor/aroma of dry hopping? THanks.
Let's start with the first one... You can add your malt extract later in the boil. This is referred to a late malt addition. This is usually done within the last 15 minutes of the boil to ensure pasturization and will result in a slightly lighter beer. On the same note, the hops utilization will go down slightly due to a lower gravity boil for the first 45 minutes. You may want to compensate a little with your bittering hops (first addition) to make up for this lower gravity.
Regarding the hops usage, the first hops in the kettle during the boil will add the bittering of the hops to your beer. The 20 minute and 10 minute additions will result in more of a hops aroma and flavor. All hops added at flameout (right after the boil) or used in dryhopping will really contribute a lot to the aroma of your beer.
"Brewers enjoy working to make beer as much as drinking beer instead of working."-Harold Rudolph
In extract brewing, a late malt addition is typically done to prevent caramelization of the extract as well as the darker colors associated with extract brewing (particularly LME) as oppose to grain. The idea is that extract has already been boiled/pasteurized once and is shipped that way, and so boiling more than 15 minutes doesn't do much except resanitize (or is it sterilize?) it. You do a small addition from the beginning because boiling hops in low gravity water (water without the extract) makes the hops harsh and/or diminished hops utilization.
Thanks - very helpful...One last question. THis is my first time using grains at all.
Like I said, I am just seeping, but the steeping sock, does it need to be steralized or does the heat from the boil kill everything nasty? I assume the boil would suffice?
You do not need to sanitize the sock because you will be boiling everything after the steep. I think you will like the results of late extract addition. Have fun brewing!
If I do the late edition of the extract, how much will I need to compensate for the bittering hops? My original recipe calls for .70 oz at 60min?
10% less hops is an okay starting place. Play with it; opinions vary from "same amount" to about 20% less, and the science isn't well understood at the moment (it's an area where home brewers are just starting to catch up with commercial brewers in understanding the science, and the commercial brewing thoughts may not apply precisely to the relatively tiny homebrew scale).
On deck: Little Bo Pils, Bretta Off Dead (Brett pale)
Secondary: Oude Bruin, Red Sky at Morning (Sour brown ale)
On tap: Saison Duphunk (sour), Amarillo Slim (IPA), Earl White (ginger/bergamot wit)
Bottled: Number 8 (Belgian Strong Dark Ale), Eternale (Barleywine), Ancho Villa (Ancho/pasilla/chocolate/cinnamon RIS), Oak smoked porter (1/2 maple bourbon oaked, 1/2 apple brandy oaked)
Wait now I'm confused. Previous posters made it seem like I would need to add hops if I did a late extract addition. So do I add or subtract hops?
If anything, late extract will increase hops utilization meaning that you should decrease the amount you use.
Ya that makes sense because bittering hops, off set the malt right?

Federal CIO Vivek Kundra is leaving for Harvard University in August, the Office of Management and Budget has announced.
"I want to congratulate [Kundra] on his move to Harvard in mid-August to serve as a joint fellow at the Kennedy School and the Berkman Center for Internet and Society," wrote OMB Director Jack Lew in a statement. "We are planning for a smooth transition, continuing these remarkable gains in changing the way the federal government manages IT and Vivek's impact on cutting waste and making government work better for the American people will continue to be felt well beyond his departure from federal service."
Kundra, appointed as the first federal CIO, is the most high-profile technology executive in the Obama administration. He has spearheaded many major initiatives in management and technology, including the recent 25-point plan for federal agencies to reform how they make major acquisitions of IT. He also has played a central role in open government and transparency, cloud computing, innovation and IT reform and has been instrumental in initiating programs including Data.gov, the Federal IT Dashboard and Challenge.gov.

Been awaiting this for a while. He was full of great ideas with little regard for execution. He seemed to assume that you could wring the expected savings out of an idea in advance of implementation and never provided support for the upfront funding requirements to actually do any of the things he proposed. His ideas always fell on the backs of cash strapped CIO shops and then he and his supporters acted surprised when we pushed back. Remember, our budget cycle starts 2-3 years in advance of budget enactment. We haven't even gotten an initial budget that factors in the schemes he proposed upon taking office. I for one will not miss him.
Feds need to clean their own houses and start holding themselves accountable for the mess out there. Raise the bar and do your jobs. Quit letting poor performers remain in the workforce - fire them!!!

The Majesty of Christ on the Cross
« Go back to the previous page
Anonymous catalan artist
Late 12th century
Polychrome wood, 130.5 x 107 x 14.7 cm
Donated by the Banco de Bilbao in 1961
This figure of Christ is a clear exponent of Catalan Romanesque sculpture and reveals the solemn and conceptual nature of mediaeval art. An extremely frequent motif in the Catalan Pyrenees throughout the twelfth century, Jesus Christ was usually portrayed either as the Dead Christ Mourned or as Christ in Majesty (Maiestas Domini), i.e., Jesus alive and triumphant on the cross as we see here. This last type, derived from Byzantine tradition, is characterised by the rigidity and the frontal view of the figures, depicted with large, wide-open eyes and feet nailed separately.
This work, of an exceptional quality and in a good state of preservation, presents Christ without a crown, dressed in a long Syrian robe or colobium decorated with imperial eagles. The schematic treatment of the figure, its rigid and majestic attitude and its face, that reveals no signs of suffering, endeavour to convey its sovereignty and magnificence.
The cross, polychrome on both sides, is another symbol of royalty and therefore a throne rather than an instrument of torture. Above the head of Christ we read the inscription IHS XPS REX ON, an abbreviation of "Iesus Christus Rex Iudeorum" (Jesus Christ King of the Jews), which is flat and widens out at the ends. The upper area contains personified representations of the Sun and the Moon that refer to the eclipse that took place upon Jesus' death; the Virgin Mary stands to the right and St John to the left. The lower area presents Adam emerging from the sepulchre as a symbol of man's redemption by Jesus. These figures represent a step forward towards naturalism and announce a new style: Gothic. [A.S.L.]
Independently of its permanent collection, the Bilbao Fine Arts Museum regularly organises temporary exhibition programmes.
Please consult the exhibition calendar for more information about the museum's latest proposals.
Usually classed as a realist painter, Antonio López (born in Tomelloso in 1936) is one of the most idiosyncratic artists at work in Spain after the Civil War. From the 1950s, he has produced drawings, engravings, paintings and sculptures, fashioning an oeuvre of a remarkable technical virtuosity that somehow seems outside time, despite focusing on the realistic representation of living beings and objects. López's iconographic repertoire always springs from the reality of the visual world and oscillates between scenes of intimacy and the vast outdoors: portraits, still life works, interiors and domestic objects jostle with broad panoramic views.
In 1992 film director Víctor Erice shot the extraordinary El sol del membrillo (The Quince Sun), which concentrates on Antonio López's creative process, on the intensity with which the artist contemplates objects. This act of rapt attention gives the film a halo of silence and a sensation of time suspended, which moves the viewer to a similar state of meditative absorption. the painter's highly distinctive use of light contributes enormously to the dreamlike, metaphysical atmosphere, to the suggestion of the visible as a door, slightly ajar, to the invisible.
Despite his realist style, Antonio López has shaped an oeuvre independent from the other, more recent European realist or naturalist trends and from American hyperrealism. What he seeks in the reality that surrounds him are the quotidian aspects that awaken his interest; he works slowly and painstakingly towards his goal of capturing the essence of the sitter or of the objects or the land- and cityscapes portrayed. Curated by historian Guillermo Solana, art director at the Thyssen-Bornemisza Museum in Madrid, and the artist' s daughter María López, the exhibition will include a very complete overview of the oeuvre of Spanish artist Antonio López.
The selection of around 130 works, oil paintings, drawings and sculptures, represent his most recurrent themes: interiors, where the fantastic and emotive irrupt into daily life, the human figure, landscapes and the famous cityscapes of Madrid and Tomelloso, and his fruit compositions.Although works dated between 1949 and 2010 will be on show, the project concentrates largely on his output from the last two decades, which will include signature works like his earliest, slightly surreal family portraits, the legendary view of Madrid's Gran Vía and the drawings of his studio. But attention will also be paid to more recent works, some of which are still unfinished and, logically, as yet unseen.
The exhibition as a whole will highlight the slow, meditative process by which Antonio López, one of today's leading and most admired Spanish artists, arrives at his art.

Commonwealth Edison Co. (ComEd) is wrapping up its $2 million electricity infrastructure improvement project in Northbrook, Ill., a project village officials said should help prevent the kind of power outages that overwhelmed Northbrook last summer.
Northbrook director of public works Kelly Hamill said that ComEd's electricity infrastructure project has been designed to yield several improvements:
Hamill said ComEd's finishing touches involved switching power from the old lines to the new lines, transferring individual residential services to the new power lines and removing the old power lines.
The village's mid-circuit recloser will be moved in late June or early July, Hamill said.
"ComEd Improves Electric Lines in Northbrook to Decrease Outages," Chicago Tribune, May 31, 2012.
Illinois electricity utility Commonwealth Edison Co. (ComEd) has released an online map and a smartphone app to help better communicate with customers about power outages during storms and provide information about how the utility is responding.
ComEd announced May 7 that it had a new color-coded map on its website that would allow customers to easily find clear information about power outages. The map, which is auto-updated every 30 minutes, provides details such as crew status and estimated power restoration time.
Presumably, customers who are experiencing a power outage and can't access the map on their computers could still access the map with a battery-powered mobile device with a cellular data plan, such as an iPhone, iPad or Android smartphone or tablet.
The utility also announced a free mobile app for iPhone and Android smartphones that will help customers easily report power outages and check restoration status. The app can be downloaded from ComEd's website or the Apple and Android app stores.
"ComEd Adds Map, Mobile App to Storm Response Tools," Bloomberg Businessweek, May 8, 2012.
You know those helium-filled Mylar party balloons that you get at the grocery store for birthday parties? They might light up your kids' faces, but they could also end up turning out the lights.
According to Commonwealth Edison Co. (ComEd), Illinois' largest public utility, Mylar balloons that are released from outdoor birthday parties, graduations and weddings have a tendency to wander gently into the sky — and right into power lines.
In a news release warning customers of the dangers of Mylar balloons released outside, ComEd said that so far this year, the festive floaters have caused power outages affecting roughly 11,000 customers, which is significantly higher than the 6,700 customers that were affected by balloon-related outages during the same period last year.
The utility said the number will rise even more this summer, as the temperature increases and more parties are held outside, unless families take precautions and secure balloons that are used outdoors.
ComEd said that when the metallic skin of a Mylar balloon contacts a power line or a part of substation equipment, it can create an electric surge that may lead to a short-circuit, power outage or even a fire.
To help cut down on power outages from Mylar balloons, ComEd recommends that you take a few precautions:
1. Make sure balloons are tethered or secured and attached to weights or sturdy structures at all times
2. When you're done with balloons, puncture them to let the helium escape and dispose of them properly
3. You should always assume that power lines are live; make sure that you, your belongings and anything you are carrying are least 10 feet away from power lines at all times
Under no circumstances should you try to recover a balloon or other toy that's become entangled in an overhead power line; instead request assistance by calling ComEd at 800.334.7661
"ComEd Warns: Balloons Can Cause Power Outages," Buffalo Grove Patch, May 5, 2012.
Commonwealth Edison Co. (ComEd) announced in March that it was beginning its massive 10-year, $2.6 billion grid modernization project, which will affect the electricity utility's entire service area.
In a news release, ComEd said it plans the following improvements to be completed by the end of the first quarter:
1. Replace or reinforce utility poles at approximately 250 locations, to help maintain the grid and improve reliability in storm conditions.
2. Replace or inject more than 506,000 feet of underground residential distribution (URD) cable — the electrical cable they bury under the ground in neighborhoods to take electricity to homes — in order to reduce the number of cable failures.
3. Other enhancements designed to improve performance and reduce service interruptions include lighting enhancements, installing nearly 600 distribution automation devices, replacing more than 32,000 feet of mainline cable, assessing manholes at 660 locations and testing 12 sections of cable.
Additional work planned throughout 2012 includes replacing or reinforcing utility poles at 1,400 locations, replacing or injecting more than 1.6 million feet of URD cable, performing additional lighting enhancements, installing more than 430 distribution automation devices, trimming trees in approximately 2,300 locations, replacing more than 15,000 feet of mainline cable, conducting testing on nearly 100 sections of cable and assessing manholes at more than 3,200 locations.
About 65 suburbs in ComEd's service area will be targeted for upgrades. Here's a sampling of the affected areas, according to the Daily Herald:

Illinois electricity utility Commonwealth Edison Co. (ComEd) is offering a few tips about how to avoid a rare, but important problem reported by a few of its customers– people impersonating ComEd employees for personal gain.
There have been less than 30 reported incidents in which individuals have shown up at customers' homes or businesses claiming to be from ComEd but, in reality, are unaffiliated with the utility. The small number of impersonators have reportedly tried to assert their fake ComEd identities to get access to customers' personal information, but ComEd says there are a few things to watch for, and a few things customers can double-check, that make it easy to avoid problems with ComEd impersonators:
ComEd said that customers who believe they've had a run-in with an impersonator should call the police and report the incident.

It might not seem like it, but digging in the yard around your home can be pretty dangerous. Digging can cause power outages and can even be hazardous to your health if you hit an underground power line that's carrying electricity to your home. That's why the Illinois Commerce Commission (ICC), the public utility regulator in Illinois, has passed a resolution declaring April 2012 National Safe Digging Month.
The ICC said it wants to use National Safe Digging Month to remind Illinois excavators and residents to call 811 before they dig. Doing so will connect them with their local One Call Center to request that utility lines be marked anywhere that digging needs to be done. Like the ICC says, "safe digging is no accident."
Speaking of safe digging, check out our post about electricity safety when working outdoors around the home.
And if you're planting trees on your property, we've got a post about some things you should consider when planting trees near power lines, including how close — or how far away — you should plant them.
Good luck, and don't forget to call 811 before you dig.
Illinois Commerce Commission, "Resolution 12-0268: Supports 811 — the Call Before You Dig to Locate Utility Lines."
There's a lot of talk these days about saving money off utility bills by making simple, energy-efficient improvements around your home and changing the way you do certain things. Upgrading to CFL light bulbs or setting back your thermostat when you're not home can be good first steps to cut energy costs, but some energy efficiency improvements, such as upgrading to an energy-efficient furnace or installing high-efficiency windows, can carry significant price tags.
While some expensive improvements may be worth it in the long run, the upfront costs might be too high for many Illinois residents. But since the benefits of energy efficiency include everything from lower utility bills to less pollution to less strain on the electric grid, it's important that financing be available for homeowners who need it. To help Illinois homeowners, Energy Impact Illinois (EI2), an organization led by the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning (CMAP), has partnered with several local banks and credit unions to make sure homeowners can get low-interest energy efficiency loans.
There are two main categories of energy efficiency improvements that qualify for EI2's low-interest loan program:
Boiler or furnace with additional items
Illinois homeowners who upgrade their boilers or furnaces are eligible for low-interest energy efficiency loans. Homeowners are also eligible for low-interest loans to finance water heaters, programmable thermostats, central air conditioners and other ENERGY STAR appliances and equipment as long as the upgrades are done in conjunction with boiler or furnace upgrades. Improvements must be installed by participating heating and cooling contractors.
Whole home improvements
Illinois homeowners are also eligible for low-interest energy efficiency loans to cover whole home improvements, which are considered to be any recommendation by a certified energy auditor that results in an estimated comprehensive energy savings of 15 percent or more. Improvements must be installed by participating energy upgrade contractors.
EI2 has partnered with Green Choice Bank, Members Alliance Credit Union and North Side Community Credit Union to offer the low-interest energy efficiency loans. All of the institutions offer unsecured loans with minimal paperwork and quick approvals. Each institution has its own loan terms. In some cases, the institutions will offer secured loans for amounts exceeding their stated maximums for unsecured loans.
Green Choice Bank serves homeowners in the seven county Chicago region. Loan amounts range from $2,500 to $10,000 with a maximum repayment term of 7 years. Home equity loans are available for more expensive energy efficiency projects.
For more information, call 773.799.9400 or visit www.greenchoicebank.com.
Members Alliance Credit Union offers low-interest energy efficiency loans to homeowners who live or work in the City of Rockford. The minimum loan amount is $500. The maximum loan amount is subject to the borrower's ability to repay. The maximum repayment term is 5 years. Eligible members must be existing or new Members Alliance Credit Union members that meet certain income and financial requirements.
For more information, call Pat Smith at 815.226.3278 or visit www.membersalliance.org.
North Side Community Federal Credit Union offers low-interest energy efficiency loans to existing or new members who live, work or worship in the Chicago neighborhoods of Uptown, Edgewater, Lakeview or Rogers Park. Loans are offered up to $6,500 with a maximum repayment term of 5 years. Eligible members must meet certain income and financial requirements.
For more information, call Jennifer Sierecki at 773.769.5800, extension 227, or visit www.northsidecommunityfcu.org.
For basic loan details or for information on the EI2 low-interest energy efficiency loan program, call EI2 at 855.9.IMPACT (855.946.7228).

You've probably heard a lot of talk about how you can cut energy costs in 2012 by decreasing the amount of electricity, natural gas and water you use. After all, who doesn't want to save money this year? But many of the types of changes you'd have to make go beyond simply turning off the lights when you leave the room. A lot of the things you can do to make your use of electricity, natural gas and water more efficient require you to spend money on home improvements. If only there were a convenient way for Illinois residents to quickly compare the costs and benefits of common home improvements and other efficiency projects.
That's where we come in. We've taken data from Energy Impact Illinois (EI2), an organization led by the Chicago Metropolitan Agency for Planning, and analyzed it so that you can get a quick idea of home improvements you can make to lower your monthly bills, how much the improvements cost and how soon you can expect to make your money back and start saving.
It's important to understand how efficient home improvement projects are. One of the best ways to rank the efficiency of a home improvement is to compare the cost of the improvement to the amount of money you can expect to save every year after making the upgrade. That will let you know how soon you can recoup your investment and when you'll really start to save some money. According to EI2, here are the top 10 most efficient home improvements Illinois residents can make.
Average Cost
Average Annual Savings
Annual Payback %
Install a faucet aerator
Upgrade to CFL light blubs
Dry clothes on drying rack or clothesline
Upgrade to a low-flow showerhead
Change out your furnace filter
Install a programmable thermostat
Insulate your water heater
Seal air leaks around your home
Insulate your home's attic/roof
Install a solar water heater
For those who'd like to see which home improvements simply save the most bucks, here's a list of the top 10 home improvements that produce the highest annual savings, according to EI2.
Install solar panels on your roof
Insulate your home's exterior walls
Upgrade to a tankless water heater
Upgrade to a high efficiency gas furnace or boiler
Upgrade to a high efficiency clothes washing machine
Upgrade to a heat pump water heater
What list of efficiency improvements would be complete without a look at the top free ways you can lower energy costs? Most of these ways simply require that you make a decision or change a behavior and all of them can start saving you money right away.
Average Annual Savings
Lower your thermostat in the winter*
Wash clothes in cold water
Raise your thermostat in the summer*
Get rid of a second refrigerator
Lower your water heater temperature**
Use celling fans instead of your air conditioners
Use a power strip for electronics and appliances
Close your blinds or curtains during summer days
Clean your air conditioner filter
* At least 10 degrees for eight hours a day, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.
** To at most 120 degrees. Every 10 degree reduction in water heater temperature can save between 3–5 percent in monthly energy costs, according to the U.S. Department of Energy.

If you live in Illinois and have electricity distributed to your home by ComEd or Ameren Illinois, you live in an area that has been deregulated. That means the public utility monopolies, which were once the only companies that could sell electricity, have been broken up and the ability to sell electricity expanded to include alternative retail electric suppliers, or ARES, that are allowed to supply electricity and compete with each other for your business.
As a result, you've been given what's referred to as electric choice, which means you can choose whether to buy your electricity from your utility or from an alternative retail electricity supplier.
Although electric choice can sometimes be confusing, it's really quite simple. Here is some basic information about the roles that the electric utilities and ARES play in areas of Illinois that have electric choice, how they affect you, and what choices you can make about your electricity supply.
ComEd and Ameren Illinois take electricity that is put onto the grid by power generation companies and distribute it to your home. This is called electricity distribution.
The utilities are also responsible for maintaining, repairing and upgrading all of the equipment used to distribute power to your home, including wires, poles, transformers and meters. Additionally, the utilities are responsible for responding to emergencies related to distribution, such as power outages and sparking wires.
The utilities aren't in the business of selling electricity, which is referred to as electricity supply, but they are required to sell electricity to you if you choose not to buy your power from an ARES. The price of electricity supplied by the utilities is set and regulated by the state through an annual auction.
ComEd and Ameren Illinois view all of their electricity distribution customers equally, regardless of who supplies their power. Customers who receive electricity supply from the utility aren't treated any differently than customers who receive electricity supply from an ARES. The way the utilities provide customer service, fix equipment and respond to outages and other emergencies is the same for everyone.
The ARES are only involved in electricity supply. Unlike the utilities, the ARES aren't involved in dealing with equipment like wires or poles and are not involved in responding to outages or other emergencies. If you choose to buy your electricity from an ARES, the utility that distributes power to your home will still be responsible for maintaining equipment and responding to outages.
ARES have more flexibility with pricing, which can benefit customers. Because ARES compete with one another for your business and purchase power in bulk continuously throughout the year, they may sell electricity at lower rates than the utilities.
Like any other kind of company, ARES are not all the same. They best ARES offer competitive rate plans, high levels of customer service and provide additional features such as a comprehensive website, mobile-friendly information and Spanish-language customer service representatives.
If electricity is distributed to your home by ComEd or Ameren Illinois, you have only one, simple choice to make: who to buy your electricity from. You can't choose the utility that distributes electricity to your home, but you can choose whether that electricity is supplied by the regulated utility or one of the competitive ARES operating in your area.
It's important to note that you're not required to switch to an ARES. However, if you choose to buy your electricity from your utility, you'll have no choice when it comes to your electricity rate or the terms of your electricity plan, which are both regulated by the state. The only way to have an option when it comes to rates and plan terms is to shop around for an ARES that gives you the best combination of pricing and features.
Plug In Illinois, "Electric Choice Basics."
Public facilities in Illinois are eligible for financial incentives that can help them upgrade to more energy-efficient lighting prior to a planned phase out of certain types of commercial fluorescent lamps beginning in 2012.
The state's Illinois Energy Now (IEN) program is run by the State Energy Office of the Illinois Department of Commerce and Economic Opportunity (DCEO). It offers incentives for lighting upgrades to local, state and federal government facilities, public schools, community colleges, public colleges and universities that can help the facilities decrease energy costs. The incentives are available to government customers served by Ameren Illinois and ComEd.
"By offering incentives to make lighting upgrades more affordable, we are helping to ensure our public facilities can spend more resources on direct service instead of keeping the lights on," said DCEO Director Warren Ribley.
The incentives help offset costs associated with the planned phase out of older, less efficient T12 fluorescent lamps, which will be replaced with more efficient T8 and T5 fluorescent lamps. The fate of T12 lamps was sealed by a 2010 U.S. Department of Energy mandate that requires the phase out of magnetic ballasts used in the operation of T12 lamps. The older lamps will be out of production by July 2012.
According to Illinois Energy Now, the new T8 and T5 lamps will bring immediate energy savings of up to 50 percent in addition to improved lighting performance and simpler maintenance. The incentives, which are provided as grants or rebates, help cover the costs of changing or retrofitting lighting systems, including lamps and fixtures.
The types of public facilities that are considered to be highest priorities for the IEN lighting upgrade program include those with older lighting systems still in place, those with the highest energy costs and those with lighting systems that stay on continuously, referred to as uncontrolled lighting, as opposed to newer systems that are controlled with motion sensors.
The DCEO, with its partners, including SEDAC (Smart Energy Design Assistance Center) and the Trade Ally Network, will provide resources and technical assistance to help determine the right course of action when it comes to planning energy-efficient lighting improvements at existing facilities or enhancing the design of new facilities.

I have a beautiful happy life that I want to share with someone special.
How did I get the United States? I had been in Japan for one and a half year, I was back in Mexico after the tsunami thing, I was almost done but because of that I left earlier than I planned and that is why I am here. At home, bureaucracy was waiting for me, so it was going to take me like one year more to get stability in my job and my life, that is why, when a college told me about an exchange for teaching Spanish to Mexican students in Nebraska, I applied, I got chosen, and become the first Mexican teacher who comes under that agreement. I have been lucky because I have found a lovely place to work and good friends that have been like a family to me during this time. I have been really busy, getting used to this new place and life. Actually it has been harder that I though, because I have been out of my comfort zone for quiet long time and sometimes that make me feel emotionally exhausted. There have been too many challenges to face. I have work hard and growth in all aspects. I can make it because I have learned how to take care of myself. A healthy lifestyle is the foundation of a good quality life. I have a passion for living; I love how does it feel when I get what I've been working for. I am lucky because there are many things I love and make me happy; learning is one of them, in a formal or informal way. I am always learning something new, that is why I like art and traveling; these things always give you pleasure and knowledge. I am sensitive, like a child. I like to feel the wind, the sand, the grass, the smell of the rain and watching the stars, I can dance all rhythms just because I feel the music dancing inside of me. I do not need to drink alcohol to feel excited, I do not need a religion to love and forgive, to know that life is a miracle, and is wonderful. I can party until 2 am if I am dancing, specially when it comes to salsa or bachata. I am a loving, caring, passionate, fun, kind, educated, honest, loyal and responsible. I expect the same. I wish to find a man who can share a life.

I like being social as much as I like being by myself. I love dancing and I am extroversive, I almost do not watch TV, I am a healthy eater but I love to try different type of foods, I like listening many kinds of music, reading and meditating.

Great chocolate bars?
Father's Day is coming up and my Dad is so hard to shop for so I usually get him some chocolate. Rather than going back to Godiva I was hoping to get something different, yet something easy to ship so it has to be sturdy, like a chocolate bar. (My dad lives in WA)Any shops in the West Los Angeles area that has great chocolate offerings? Thanks!
Both Surfas and the Market Gourmet in Venice have good selections of chocolate bars. Chocolat on Main St in SM has a great selection of Neuhaus chocs.
re: markethej
Kron has been in Beverly Hills sinece the 1970's. T
Wally's Wines in Westwood has a very nice selection of gourmet/imported chocolate bars. Mel & Rose on Melrose (I believe that is West LA) also has quite an extensive collection.
What I would like is See's Awesome Nut & Chew Bars. Chewy nougat, almonds, one or two drops of honey all covered in dark chocolate.That could be the private stuff just for him. These come in a box of 8 for around $7.50. Add a pound of See's California Brittle so he can show-off what he got.
re: JeetJet
See's Victorian Toffee ain't half-bad either... but you're right - that nougat with dark chocolate hits the spot... I wonder though - do they have See's in Washington?
Another spot for great chocolate that's kinda out of the way in La Canada, is the Chocolate Box Cafe. We stumbled upon this place while driving to Descanso Gardens. Lots of great chocolates, genaches, truffles, and bars. The packaging is first rate so sending these as a gift would be suitable for your purposes...
re: JeetJet
I agree re. See's Awesome Nut & Chew Bars. I've had both kinds-- the ones in the red box (long and thin) and the ones in the purple box (flat and wide). They are all good.
Just as a note, the ones in the purple box are called "Awesome Walnut Squares." They have walnuts in them instead of almonds.
the finest chocolate I've ever tasted was Amedei. It's really hard to find and it's pricey. I saw little chocolate squares of it at Cafe Luxe on Montana St. in Santa Monica. Can't remember the price. But I remember that it tastes better than any of the Valrhona, Neuhaus, Sharffenberger, Mariebelle, etc. that I've had.
Vosges has a wide range of flavors, including new peanut butter-chocolate squares (only on their website). Their chocolate bars are offered at Sufa's.
re: glutton
I believe someone mentioned that Vosges is also offering a chocolate with bacon as well... Now that's taking chocolate in a different direction...
Gelson's has probably one of the better supermarket selections
Whole Foods
Trader Joe's
the chocolate truffles sold at Artisa cheese gallery
All good
Frankly though, my mom and dad love nothing more than when I overnight them some cookies and scones from Leeda's. I use my food saver to vacu seal them, just to be sure.
Cost Plus has a very good selection of interesting bars and many organic chocolates.
All at great prices too.
Why limit yourself to chocolate bars, when these fabulous chocolate makers can ship their exquisite chocolates for you:
Jin Patisserie:
re: slacker
Jin's chocolates are great, but one caviat: if you're sending it and think the pkg will be exposed to any warm temps, you'd probably want to pack it with a couple of refrigerated (not frozen) blue ice packs - her chocolates don't ship well in anything warmer than 75 degrees... Kristy will ship them for you, but I don't know what she charges for this service...
I highly recommend See's, especially the milk chocolate with almonds. By far my favorite candy bar. The Bordeaux bars (brown sugar buttercream dipped in milk chocolate and coated with chocolate sprinkles) are also amazing. Peanut brittle very buttery and sinful.
re: mmmclapclap
I think they have very reasonable prices for chocolates.
Has anyone seen Zotter bars in the LA area? They're from Austria and come in an array of interesting flavors: banana curry, lemon polenta, cheese, etc.
Jonathan at Compartes has begun making chocolate bars. I would have to conclude that they are the nicest looking chocolate bars I have seen in Los Angeles. One chocolate bar is candied violets and roses, while another is a Japanese spice with orange peels. However, better than the chocolate bars are the truffles. I am an avid chocolate fan who enjoys going to chocolate shops. I would have to say that Jonathan is the chocolate-trend chocolatier of Los Angeles.

The Chennai Corporation will soon take up works to repair the hand rails, staircases, footpaths and lighting on the Kodambakkam Bridge. Sources said that tenders had been settled for these works that will be completed along with the repair works on strengthening the bridge.
The bridge, which was constructed in 1963, will be closed during weekends for the next two months. Sources in the Chennai Corporation said that the repairs were necessitated as preventive maintenance had not been taken up for several years.
"Even during the weekdays, one portion of the bridge, where work is proceeding, would always be cordoned off," explained an official. A few years ago, an expert study had concluded that the expansion joints of the bridge had weakened due to water seepage.
Though the process of repairing and strengthening the bridge was started in mid 2011, it has taken the civic body nearly two years to vacate a market, a few shops and houses beneath the facility.

Very good quick bread; nice garlic taste! I used 3 cups self rising flour & omitted the baking powder & salt.
Update: this bread also makes great croutons for salad! Cut into cubes, place on baking sheet, spray w/oil & toast for approx. 40 min at 200 degrees.

I have this in the oven right now and it smells divine! Used a garlic seasoning mix and that is the only change I made. If it tastes as good as it smells, I will be ever so happy!

This bread is delicious. We had it with butter on and garlic soup. I did have to make a couple of alterations as the comments said it was not very strong in garlic taste so I added an extra tsp and I also added 1tsp mix herbs as our family loves herb bread. The mixture was a little dry so I needed to add a little bit of extra milk. Other than the additions I decided to make myself this was a quick and delicious bread. Before cooking in the oven I added a sprinkling of cheese and sesame seeds to the top which my family commented on how tasty the crust was.
Thanks for this recipe, I will definitely be making it again!

Jeetendra Kapoor, Indian Actor
Jeetendra was a Bollywood Actor who was popularly known as `Jumping Jack` was a superstar of 70`s of Hindi film industry.
Jeetendra was born on 7th April 1942 in
. His birth name was Ravi Kapoor. It was for his indisputable commercial appeal he was running successfully in the film industry for over 25 years. Jeetendra has done nearly 200 films as hero. Filmmaker V. Shantaram gave him a chance in the movie and thus started the career of jumping jack for the first time and later his career culminated towards producing, working in television, and chairman of the Balaji Motion pictures.
Career of Jeetendra
Jeetendra got his first major break in Shantaram`s `Geet Gaya Pattharon Ne` in the year 1964. His other hit was `Farz` in 1967 with which he came into limelight. This film went on to become a golden jubilee success and his white shoes and t-shirt were very famous which created a trademark for him. His vigorous dancing in Farz and subsequent films like Caravan and Humjoli won Jeetendra the epithet, Jumping Jack. His films consistently achieved commercial success, even though the critics panned a lot of them. Jeetendra was a non actor who knew the market pulse well. In South also he worked in many movies which were super hit and commercially successful where he co-starred with Sridevi and Jayaprada. He also did many of the action films like `Dil Aur Deewar`, `Jyoti Bane Jwala` and `Meri Awaaz Suno`. Jeetendra worked in a trilogy with Gulzar as in `Parichay`, `Khushboo` and `Kinara`.
