Pixar Themed Character Meal in Disney California Adventure?
Welcome to those of you joining me from Disney Donna Kay and those of you just hopping aboard. I am the final stop on our Magical Blogorail today.
This month we are talking about the perfect Disney meal!
You know, if you could take all the different things you love about other meals, and maybe things you wish were offered, combine the and make a brand new experience? I love thinking of these sorts of things so I had tons of ideas for this topic. I thought long and hard about what would be my ultimate Disney dining experience and I don't think I could wish for anything more than a Pixar character meal in Disney California Adventure.
I asked my family to help me figure out everything that should go into this new dining experience. This is what we came up with-
Restaurant Name: 2319
We had a lot of interesting thoughts on this one but decided that we wanted to have it be a fun experience for children (and adults) and what better way to let people know that children are on the premises then to use the code that lets everyone know a human child is present?
Breakfast: Buffet style, similar to Goofy's Kitchen or Plaza Inn's Minnie and Friend's breakfast. Instead of Mickey waffles, they would be Buzz or Woody shaped. Bacon, eggs, sausage, yogurt parfaits, and any other breakfast food a kid or parent could want.
Lunch: In an ode to Pizza Planet, lunch would be a pizza and pasta buffet. Any pizza you could dream of would be included, including a fun dessert pizza.
Dinner: The dinner menu would be a bit more diverse, following a more traditional buffet style meal. Fried chicken, pizza, maybe even steak or sushi would be included. Each night could have a new theme based off a different Pixar film.
This would be the place to meet all the Pixar Characters, including some lesser seen (or never seen?) characters like Syndrome, Carl, and more.
Of course the perfect park for this new dining experience would be Disney California Adventure, where Pixar already has a huge presence. On my recent trip I spotted the perfect location- if you go behind Luigis Flying Tires towards the side entrance to a Bug's Land (both Pixar themed lands) there is an area that is quite bare, with only light landscaping. This would be the perfect place for the building.
I have it all mapped out.
What do you think? Would you eat at my new Pixar character dining experience?
Thank you for joining Magical Blogorail Blue this month. We will be back on August 21st with an all new theme. Keep checking in with our blogs in between loops to keep up to date with our Disney info, photos and stories. If you are looking for more Disney magic, you can make your way over to The Magical Blogorail website to see all our members and their blogs, as well as all our previous loops.
Here is the map of our Magical Blogorail should you happen to have to make a stop along the way and want to reboard:
1st Stop ~ Home is Where the Mouse Is - Perfect Meals to Begin and End Your Day
2nd Stop ~ Rolling with the Magic - The Perfect World Showcase Counter Service Meal
3rd Stop ~ Disney Babies Blog - Dream Disney Meal
4th Stop ~ Disney Donna Kay - The Perfect Room Service Meal
Final Stop ~ Love Our Disney - Pixar Character Meal at DCA (You are here)

We would love an opportunity to eat with Pixar characters! I think my kids would go crazy!!!ReplyDelete
Awesome! What a great concept! I especially like the restaurant name, very clever! Do you think Disney will ever pursue the idea?ReplyDeleteReplies
I hope they will, but they still have not made a ride based on the Monster's Inc door chase scene....and I have been saying they should do that for years (along with tons of other people). Hopefully one day though.Delete
I am side tracking with you. Wouldn't that scene with the doors be fabulous!! Perfect roller coaster. Could be a thrill ride or one like the new Dwarfs Mine Train - good for all ages.Delete
Amen Mary! I have been talking about that idea since I first saw Monsters Inc. In fact, the first time I rode the Monsters Inc ride at DCA, I was disappointed it didn't have a rollercoaster type feel for that part of the ride.Delete
A Pixar-themed character dining experience would be great fun! We'd definitely eat there!ReplyDelete
This is an experience that is definitely missing in Disney Parks. My son would love it! I love how you put a lot of thought into the details, especially the name! Which theme night would you be most excited to attend?ReplyDeleteReplies
A Pixar character meal would be a fun experience. You could also do a pizza for breakfast. Some pizza places by me (usually near hospitals or other around-the-clock work places) serve a breakfast pizza with eggs and cheese with some topping cooked in a pizza crust. It's very good. Could be an interesting addition to your meal. Would Roz be the greeter?ReplyDeleteReplies
haha- Roz would be the perfect greeter. :)Delete
They serve a breakfast pizza at Goofy's kitchen. I totally forgot about that until you mentioned it. That would be a great addition to the breakfast menu!
What a great idea/ missed opportunity! Aside from Carsland, Pixar is totally under utilized in the parks!ReplyDelete
What a cool spin on this topic!! I LOVE this idea!! I love the Pizza Planet idea! :D xxReplyDelete
You had me at pizza buffet. I could seriously live on the stuff. :) And I love the name! Awesome idea.ReplyDelete
What a creative post, Becca! I'd definitely go for a meal there! I think it would be neat to figure out the technology that would allow them to do some sort of holographic display of a scene in the movie that would put you right in the scene, and then for each night they would just program it to change to the next movie. Great post!ReplyDelete
We'd be thrilled to eat at 2319! I love the detail and thought you put into this. How fun!ReplyDelete
This is FABULOUS! I would definitely eat here- I'd devour all of those meals! :) I'll be honest though, I had to google 2319! :) very creative!ReplyDelete
Thank you for your comments. Because this is a family blog, please keep the language clean and the spirit upbeat. SPAM will be deleted.

|So, this idea came to me in the theatre and returned after I bought the movie.
Land of the Lost aready establishes that there is more than one plane of existence, so, in one world, while Holly, Will and Dr. Rick Marshall search for tackeon emissions Sam and Dean Winchester are in another, checking out Devil's Canyon for reports of a strange creature and, in yet another, Spike, Xander and Dawn are recruited to check out a missing person's case at the same crappy attraction.
So, what happens when all three groups meet up in the Land of the Lost? Will they ever get out? And if they do, can they get back to the right worlds? And if you could include Castiel on the Winchester's hunt I would love you forever :)

Don't believe what the previous reviewer says, he obviously works for Sky! I've had one of these since they first launched and they are high quality in both build and performance. What's more they are a piece of cake to use (even for the technically challenged pensioner!). Full on screen programme guide from which you highlight which prog(s) to record (or whole series) and press o.k. It's that easy. We paid £299, so at this price it's a bargain. Buy one, you won't regret it.

Lake Santa Fe is designated by the State of Florida as an Outstanding Florida Water which, according to the Florida Department of Environmental Protection, means it is "worthy of special protection because of its natural attributes." The lake covers approximately 5,856 acres and, along with the 7,046-acre Santa Fe Swamp at the north end of the lake, is considered the headwaters of the Santa Fe River, the largest tributary of the mighty Suwannee River.
The intent of the state's Outstanding Florida Water designation is to "prevent the lowering of existing water quality." Many scientists feel that we cannot sustain our high water quality indefinitely on Lake Santa Fe, unless we all undertake steps to curb the impact we are having on our precious lake. Isn't this what unites us all – the need to protect the quality of our water?
Whether you live on Lake Santa Fe, or visit it regularly, you surely appreciate the natural beauty of our lake ecosystem. The responsibility for the present and future health of our lake depends on every one of us, as caretakers of our Outstanding Florida Water. Please take a few moments to explore this web site, intended to be both interesting and informative. Perhaps by increasing our awareness, we will more fully understand the delicate balance between our activities and the health of our lake.
See the SFLDA News and Events page for our current newsletter and details on upcoming events.
SFLDA Annual Meetings
Each summer the Santa Fe Lake Dwellers Association has its annual business meeting at the Trinity Episcopal Church on S.R. 26 in Melrose. This is always a fun and informative meeting for local lake issues. At previous meetings we have had informative talks from Florida Fish and Wildlife Commission biologists in charge of Aquatic Plant Management and Permitting, who spoke about problem plants, such as torpedo grass, and methods to tackle these and other invasive plants, and how to get a removal permit. Other speakers from the Alachua County Extension Office and Master Gardeners presented information on local landscapes.
Winter Social
Every winter we have a Social with less business and more time for interaction among members. The Annual Chili and Cornbread Supper is held at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Melrose. Among the many interesting programs for this annual event have been films and presentations on springs, lake geology and water resources. It is always a lovely evening of fellowship and good food.
Annual Santa Fe LakeFest and Clean-up Melrose Bay Park
Beginning in 2000, when Fritzi Olsen of Adopt-A-River suggested it to the Board, the annual Santa Fe LakeFest and Clean-up was held each spring on Melrose Bay Park. On the last Saturday in March, local civic organizations, interested citizens, and volunteers living on the lake went out and collected trash (and water hyacinths or other invasives) along the shore. Over the years we have had many successful clean ups. In recent years the amounts collected decreased dramatically, hopefully because our past efforts had an impact. After 2012 we decided to give the organized clean-up a break and decided that, due to the small number of actual lake residents coming to take advantage of the day's activities, the association would be better served by focusing our energy and resources on our other two annual events, the General Membership Meeting and the Winter Social/Chili Supper.
Our LakeFest events were fun days of hands-on activities and nature-oriented displays, with good food, kayak demonstrations, gardening and composting advice, free boat rides to the beautiful Reynolds Preserve, and some terrific live music. Some of our area's most talented singer-songwriters, including Dale Crider, David Beede and Whitey Markle, entertained with their original music celebrating our unique part of Florida. Face painting, an art area, games and projects, live animals, and a poster show by local children keep the youngsters busy. LakeFest themes have included the threat of exotic plants, our endangered water supply, and water conservation initiatives.
The educational exhibits, focused on lake ecology and stewardship, along with water activities, good food and great music made this a different kind of spring festival; many people said it was their favorite of all the festivals. We are forever grateful to the generous folks who gave us their Saturday, year after year, as they sat tables and exhibits, cooked food, and made beautiful music. Perhaps at a later date we will resume this event with the help of additional members of Santa Fe Lake Dwellers and the area communities and organizations. Do look for us at other events as the protection of our lake and our water supply is still our mission and our priority.
Fourth of July Boat Parade
A long-standing tradition on Lake Santa Fe is the annual 4th of July Boat Parade. Typically the circumnavigation begins at 11 am. Boats gather at the entrance to the Lake Santa Fe Boat Ramp, Alachua County, at the south end of Big Lake Santa Fe. The circumnavigation goes counter-clockwise along the shore of both lakes. Anyone interested can simply decorate your vessel and come along. Docks provide a great place for viewing.Or when the red, white and blue boats motor by, feel free to jump in your own vessel and join the parade!
Thanks to MBCA for helping organize this event.

Charter schools must disclose salaries, say state education officials in a reverse decision
Posted By Lindsay Wagner On April 16, 2014 @ 9:56 am In Uncategorized | Comments Disabled
As reported today in the Charlotte Observer [1], State Board of Education chairman William Cobey along with State Superintendent June Atkinson have gone on the record to say that the state's charter schools, which are public, should disclose the salaries of all their employees — a reversal of a March announcement [2] by top education officials who said that charter schools are not obligated to make salaries public.
"Public charter schools should disclose how they spend all tax dollars, including salaries paid," N.C. Board of Education Chairman William Cobey said in a recent email.
"Charter schools are set up and organized as public schools. Therefore I believe salaries are to be open to the public for review," state Superintendent June Atkinson said Monday.
Last month, a DPI spokeswoman said that because a charter school's employees are employed by a private, nonprofit board, they shouldn't be subject to the same public records law [3] that public schools must comply with.
That statement was at odds with the conclusion of the special counsel for the N.C. General Assembly, who said charter schools must disclose salaries.
Chairman Cobey and Atkinson plan to send a letter to all charter schools next week, informing them of their duty to disclose salaries of all of their staff.

Avery Bradley scores 16 points in Impact opener
Summer basketball often leads to ridiculous statistics. Gary Forbes scored 78 points in a Pro-Am game earlier this summer. Kevin Durant seemingly drops at least 40 every time he steps foot on a court. The defense is minimum and the offense is uninhibited by consciences or set plays, so scoring numbers soar.
So when Avery Bradley scored 16 points yesterday in the opening game of the Impact Basketball Competitive Training Series, that does not necessarily mean he played well. On the same day, Iman Shumpert poured in 25 points, Dahntay Jones 31, and Isaiah Thomas, the last pick in this year's NBA draft, managed 28 points, 11 rebounds and 9 assists. Even Damon Jones, who hasn't played professional basketball since Lebron James was a beloved NBA superstar, scored 16 points. And Sebastian Telfair messed around and almost got a triple-double, with 22 points, 10 assists and 6 rebounds.
Bradley still has miles to travel before becoming a reliable professional point guard, and he knows that, which is why he's in Las Vegas to participate in the Impact Training Series. This isn't about scoring points, winning games, or earning the advantage in his personal matchup against Alan Anderson. It's about getting much-needed reps, and mostly, it's about improvement. (CSNNE)
The NBA is big on potential — that'll get you in. But if you want to stick around, sooner or later, you have to produce.
For Bradley, that time is now. And that time is spent in this sweat box known as Las Vegas, working diligently to chisel out his frame and his game.
"That's what I'm doing, little things like this," Bradley told CSNNE.com. "I can come out, try and get better all the time."
In case you were wondering, Bradley's team lost, 102-86. Jermaine O'Neal scored 14 points in his game, but A. Sherrod Blakely noted, "It was clear that he was losing steam quickly. He can definitely help the C's this upcoming season, but he doesn't have it in him to play the kind of major minutes players in this league will be logging."
Good thing he's currently Boston's only center, and even better, the Celtics will have zero cap space whenever the free agency period arrives. It's time to get creative, Mr. Ainge.

HEINTZ: Left, right wrong on Ukraine
By ANDY HEINTZ, For What It's Worth | 3/19/2014
John McCain looks and sounds like the personification of American exceptionalism.
That mindset is particularly conspicuous every time he assails President Obama for not doing enough about Syria, Libya, Ukraine or wherever else the Arizona senator thinks America needs to flex its muscles and exact the United States' version of justice.
John McCain looks and sounds like the personification of American exceptionalism.
That mindset is particularly conspicuous every time he assails President Obama for not doing enough about Syria, Libya, Ukraine or wherever else the Arizona senator thinks America needs to flex its muscles and exact the United States' version of justice.
And, to be fair, when McCain makes the rounds on the cable news circuit or takes to the op-ed pages of America's most influential newspapers to make his case for a more interventionist U.S. foreign policy, his words drip with sincerity. Whether one agrees with him or not, McCain's authenticity can't be questioned; he believes with every fiber of his being in the supposedly altruistic nature of the United States.
I don't single out McCain because I have any deep enmity for the former Republican presidential candidate — he seems to be, despite a few atypical decisions (Sarah Palin comes to mind), a very principled man. However, McCain represents a weakened, yet still influential bloc of politicians and media figures who vigorously promote a more activist United States foreign policy despite the disasters this mindset has engendered in the past. Surprisingly, though, the disastrous war in Iraq undermined this group's influence, the opinions of the "we must do something gang" are still taken seriously by the serious people in the mainstream media.
So, when Russia illegally invaded Crimea for cynical reasons, the foreign policy hawks were quick to excoriate Obama for not doing enough.
McCain complained that "nobody believes in America's strength anymore" and his ally U.S. Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C., said, "We have a weak and indecisive president that invites aggression." In addition, the hawkish Washington Post, in a critical editorial, warned that "Obama's foreign policy is based on fantasy."
The do-somethings don't seem to understand that the U.S. cannot fix or become deeply embroiled in every conflict in the world. Nor do they ever acknowledge the double standards practiced by our country and some of our allies.
Meanwhile, some on the left have mirrored the do-somethings rigid views by overstating the allegedly fascist character of the Ukrainian revolution. Despite the Kremlin propaganda machine's claims that Ukraine has been taken over by a fascist or Nazi regime, the truth is that neo-fascist groups represented only a small portion of the people involved in the Maidan revolution against Ukraine's corrupt and repressive former president Viktor Yanukovych.
The revolution also included Jews, Muslims, Ukrainian veterans of the Soviet Red Army that invaded Afghanistan in 1979, Russians, orthodox Christians, Catholics, college students, gay activists, working class people and feminists.
Where else in the world have so many different groups banded together to overthrow a ridiculously corrupt regime? In a world bloodied by racial, tribal and religious-based conflicts, this diverse coalition should be seen as a model for unity and tolerance.
When segments of the left dismiss the revolution as fascist, they ignore the millions of Ukrainians who risked their lives to go up against a government that was all too willing to use excessive and sometimes lethal force to quell dissent.
While the do-somethings overstate the perpetual need for U.S. global dominance (while ignoring our double standards), many on the left have become so obsessed with U.S. imperialism that they've gotten soft on the imperialism practiced by Russia and its nefarious oligarchs.

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
It's not enough just to post to Twitter and try to increase number of people following you; you yourself should be taking advantage of the Twitterverse and following other people. There's lots to learn out there. So how do you find people to follow? I think one of the easiest ways is to use the Twitter Search field. In the new design that was rolled out recently, you'll see the Search field appear at the top in the Twitter navigation bar whenever you're on Twitter's web site, either on the Home page or on the Profile page--it's the same thing.
If you type in any phrase, like for example Anne Smith might want to type in something having to do with the gourmet chocolates because that's their company, it's going to search for tweets with this phrase in it. Ah, here is a good one, but they're not right together. They are mentioning either/or or both. So there are a lot of people talking about gourmet chocolates, and then you could, if you want to follow up, like this one says that they sent their dad a dozen gourmet chocolates and apparently there is a competitor to Blissno5 on Twitter, and you might want to follow up on it and see what is it that they are posting about.
If you want to have more control over what you're searching, then you can go to advanced search. You can just click right here under advanced search. I have already gone to advanced Twitter search; it's search.twitter.com. This is what it looks like. It's been around forever. And then you can click Advanced Search. So advanced search is kind of like Google's advanced search that lets you search for keywords written in a certain language according to whoever posted it. This is really good, the Places field, because you might want to find out if anybody is talking about gourmet chocolates nearby where your place of business is, if you're a local retailer.
So I might say, near let's say Los Angeles, within 50 miles, search for all these words or this exact phrase. I think I'll just do all these words, gourmet and chocolate. This is the default search that it does. Only one person so far is tweeting about that, but apparently they're at the farmer's market. So if you wanted to follow up on who this company is and perhaps follow them to see what it is they're tweeting about, you could do so. So that is using the default Twitter Search field or advanced search.
Now Twitter very quietly rolled out a much more sophisticated search engine, and they put it here under the Who To Follow link. A lot of people miss this. But under Who To Follow, there are three tabs. One of them is View Suggestions. These are suggested twitters that you're not following yet, but it thinks that you would be very interested in them based on who you're following now, what you're tweeting about, and then any overlap among these people, their followers, and what they tweet about.
So it's kind of interesting that you can go through here and for example venturaimprov, because one of the people who is following me and that I am following in return, is a member of the Ventura Improv Company. You can go through here if you'd like. Another tab here is Browse Interests. So if for example, your business is in a health field, you can click on Health. It's suggesting people who tweet who specialize in this field. If you want to learn more about them, again you can just select them on the left and you'll see how many people are following them and their recent tweets, or you can jump directly to their own Twitter page.
If you click Find Friends, this is the same kind of link that you may have remembered when you first opened your Twitter account, suggesting that you upload your contact database, and then it will match those email addresses against the email addresses of other registered users. So if you forgot to do that, or you've added a whole bunch of more contacts to your email program, you can always come over here and redo that. So if you're ever wondering who would be good to follow, don't forget that you can check out the Who To Follow link on the Twitter Home page. But in general, the people that you want to follow as a business owner are your customers and clients and staff members. So you should always be asking people what their Twitter address is.
If you have a form that you send out to your customers or clients where you ask them what their email address is, ask them what their Twitter account is as well. They might leave it blank of course or say does not apply, but this is a way that you can follow what your customers or clients are doing on Twitter, any colleagues that you have in the field. Something that a lot of people forget is that, why not follow your vendors? Who are all those people that you're writing checks to? Very often they have Twitter feeds where they are posting coupon codes for their services, and they forgot to contact their clients and let them know that they're on Twitter, right? So you need to be proactive and check the latest statements or correspondence from your vendors to see if they list their Twitter address, or go to the web site.
Any journalists who write in your field, they very often have Twitter addresses. And any social influencers for your field, that means who are the thought leaders? Who is the keynote speaker at your professional conference? Those people very likely have Twitter feeds, and you want to follow them, not only because they will probably be tweeting useful things, but very often you can ask them questions directly and they might follow you. Or they might retweet what you say, so whatever they tweet has a lot of weight in the Twitterverse.
That's strategic following. And a big one is competitors. What are your competitors tweeting? You need to think of it from the perspective of your potential clients. If you sell shoes, what other shoes stores are on Twitter? What are the people who might buy shoes from a company that talks about themselves and their products on Twitter, what other companies are they following? So go ahead and follow your competitors if you like, and don't be surprised if they're following you as well.
So that's what I call strategic following; follow the people in your own ecosystem for your business, as well as the social influencers for your field.

Refunds and Selling or Transferring Wristbands
Wed, May 9, 2012 | byShare
Wristbands will become nonrefundable as of a request date of May 15. If you are a member of a group, we suggest that you first notify your group contact if requesting a refund. The contact may have someone on a waiting list and can coordinate the transfer of your wristband. A $25 processing fee per applicant is deducted for refunds. Your refund will be mailed to you in the form of a check, even if you made payment by credit card.
RAGBRAI is not in the business of reselling credentials because of the assignment of ID numbers that coincide with the application and waiver/release of liability that you signed. The five rider credentials with an ID number are the wristband, the bike band, the baggage tag, the bike license plate and the redeemable patch certificate. The transfer or sale of ride credentials is a private transaction, and RAGBRAI is not responsible for misunderstandings between the two parties, misplaced credentials, or the failure to transfer the credentials into the new owner's name.
A transfer or resale of credentials will only be valid if it is officially transferred by the RAGBRAI office to the new owner before the event begins. To transfer a wristband, the new owner must complete an online transfer form, found on RAGBRAI.com, and an electronic waiver of liability. This procedure not only transfers the wristband, but also the liability associated with it. If we do not receive a completed online transfer form and an electronically signed waiver of liability, the wristband and the liability will remain in the original purchaser's name. The transfer period will begin on June 15th and will close on July 18th. Call RAGBRAI at 1-800-I RIDE IA (474-3342) if you have questions about this procedure.

City Council approved $95M in bonds
The City Council approved today $95 million in bonds, mostly for utility work in the upcoming year.
Utility work, including drainage ditches, a Southside water line and wastewater plant improvements, is budgeted to cost the city about $85 million. Another $10 million is for financing earlier bonds at a lower interest rate.
The city issues between $75 million and $95 million in bonds annually for utility work. About half of this year's costs is supporting infrastructure for street improvements under the bonds voters approved in 2004.

Report: Arizona child welfare needs full overhaul
PHOENIX (AP) — An independent team named by Arizona Gov. Jan Brewer to review the state's troubled child welfare agency on Friday called for a top-to-bottom overhaul of the department to focus it purely on child safety.
The team released a 54-page review outlining steps needed to address yearslong problems at Child Protective Services. The most severe issue was revealed in November when more than 6,500 child abuse and neglect reports were found to have not been investigated.
Brewer abolished Child Protective Services earlier this month and created a new child welfare department that reports directly to her.
The Republican governor's CARE team report recommends retraining social workers, working more with outside providers and law enforcement and overhauling the state's child abuse hotline.
The report also recommends creating an agency inspections bureau to provide oversight and removing civil service protections from child welfare agency workers to allow exceptional performance to be rewarded.
"It's a very insular, closed, friend of friend-type culture and that needs to change," said Rep. Kate Brophy McGee, a Republican who is on the team. "It needs to be a system of employees who are supported in the job they are expected to do that's clearly outlined for them that they will then be accountable for."
The report revealed big lag times in the abuse hotline system, noting that 26 percent of callers hang up while on hold. It mapped 142 possible points in the current system where an abused or neglected child could fall through the cracks.
"It's breathtaking," Brophy McGee said. "It's very scary."
The report also repeated what's already known about the agency — that caseworkers are overworked, turnover approaches 30 percent, and performance standards are unclear.
Dana Naimark, president of the advocacy group Children's Action Alliance, said the report provides a "good, solid roadmap on the investigative side."
"I thought it was really important that they pointed out the connection between the child abuse and neglect issue and the lack of child care and other prevention support, and we certainly are looking to our leaders to take action in these areas this session as well," Naimark said.
Brewer created what she's calling the CARE team in December after it was learned that a group inside the Child Protective Services agency had been closing reports received by its child abuse hotline without sending them to social workers in the field for investigation. The idea was to cull out reports not meriting action to lower the caseload of overwhelmed field workers, but a review found many should've been acted upon, and all by law required a response.
Five senior CPS workers remain on administrative leave as investigations into who authorized the closings continue.
The CARE team has been handling the previously uninvestigated reports and assigned all but three of 6,554 cases to social workers. Those three were referred to authorities on Indian reservations outside state jurisdiction.
Social workers have removed 91 children from their homes since the neglected reports dating to 2009 were discovered. A review also found that before the closed cases were discovered, nearly 1,200 of them had subsequent reports that led to the removal of at least 316 children from their homes.

This is how we demonstrate that you can celebrate anything here- there's a pond, a dancing bar, and a place to dine. We hope you come to enjoy what we have to offer!
There was a Shooting and Archery event against the Irishmen- and they lost. Because they lost, they had to dance on the bar Thursday night, which they did as they were told.
There was also a wranglers versus guests Arena Game. Having the wranglers do beyond what the guests are used to them doing was a good way to have them step outside their comfort zone, and shows the guests that they're good at other things, too.
We're about to close down for the winter, because it's turning into fall. Hope to have you visit next year, or this year (if you already have it planned)!
Huge thank you to our photographer Nicola for the fantastic shots! Adults only weeks are the only thing left.
The manager of BMR from '93 to '99 passed away from ALS, so a whole group of people did the ALS Ice Bucket Challenge. It was even recorded on video, so you can watch it below! Hope you join us soon!!
Every day in the evenings, we let the horses out from where they're kept during the day into the free pasture where they spend the night. We often let our guests watch, and although it might be frightening because the horses are "free," the horses know exactly where to go, so they don't take any detours. Sometimes, the people are asked to prevent the horses from going astray by standing and blocking the place where they're not supposed to go. Then, when the horses are in the field where they stay overnight, they can roam around, and snack on the grass like they usually do. It's great for the visitors to see the horses behaving naturally, not as only horses to saddle-up on. That shows visitors even though the horses are fun to ride, they do other things as well.
There isn't only horseback riding at our ranch; there's dancing, swimming, and dining on cabin-cooked food. You can escape the hustle and bustle of city life by escaping to mountain ranch. That's why getting away from it all and taking some time to relax and just breathe is a great idea. Come see for yourself!
This week two people renewed their wedding wows! In ranch fashion they were dressed so that they could ride horses when the vows were stated. One of our wranglers, Matt, was officiating the vow-renewal. Sue and Walt love riding horses (and the ranch!), so it was great to re-officiate their wedding at a place that offered what they love doing.
At the end of the stay, the guests enjoyed the rodeo at Eagle County Fair. Guests got a chance to see how riding horses could be used as a career. Time spent at the ranch was a chance for people to escape their hectic lives, see how horse riding could make them happy, and even be turned into a paying job-it's not only just for fun!
What has happened so far this season? We truly have an amazing staff and have fantastic guests. Every year, at some point during the summer, we say "this is the best summer ever," and we've been saying it since the first week!
Jake's Lake has a beautiful new cabin and dock for swimming and fishing.
We have added some great new horses and have nearly 100 in our herd now!
The lodge has a new facelift and looks stunning (if you ask us).
Our masseuse is getting rave reviews. We have a longstanding 'listen to our guests' policy, which sometimes has us provide some amazing perks like a great massage or facial (although the neighborhood cowboys are giving us a bit of the side eye).

The 15-year fixed rate mortgage is popular.
Last quarter, 43% of U.S. households refinanced out of an existing 30-year fixed rate mortgage in favor of shorter loan terms offered by 15-year and 20-year fixed-rate loans. It's the quickest exodus from the 30-year fixed rate loan in more than eight years.
Low mortgage rates have been a catalyst. At mortgage rates today, homeowners with a 15-year loan term pay 65% less mortgage interest than with a comparable 30-year loan.
Compare today's 15-year mortgage rates here.
According to Freddie Mac's quarterly Product Transition report, between January - March 2014, more than 2 of every 5 refinancing households with an existing 30-year fixed-rate mortgage refinanced into a 15-year or 20-year fixed rate loan.
The reading marks a 1 percentage point increase from the quarter prior and a 13-point jump from the same period one year ago.
The rush to leave the 30-year loan is a sensible one. As compared to the benchmark product, 15-year fixed rate mortgage rates are near their "cheapest" levels in history.
During the 12-year period from 2000-2012, 15-year fixed rate mortgage rates were 0.52 percentage points lower than comparable 30-year ones. y contrast, in this year's 1st quarter, by contrast, 15-year rates were cheaper by 0.96 percentage points.
The discount on a 15-year loan is nearly twice its historical size. Savvy homeowners see opportunity.
At today's rates, 15-year mortgages carry less than $28,000 of mortgage interest per $100,000 borrowed over the life of the loan. 30-year loans require $78,000 per hundred-thousand dollars borrowed.
Never in history have savings like this been possible.
Click here to compare 30-year and 15-year mortgage rates.
The 15-year mortgage has been especially popular among users of the Home Affordable Refinance Program (HARP). HARP is the government's mortgage program for underwater homeowners.
Sometimes called "The Obama Refi", the HARP refinance gives homeowners whose homes have lost equity the ability to refinance without taking on new, or additional, private mortgage insurance (PMI) coverage.
Via HARP, homeowners who put 20% down at the time of purchase and can refinance into a loan with no PMI required, regardless of their home's LTV situation; or how far underwater the mortgage happens to be.
Similarly, homeowners who put 10% down at the time of purchase and who pay PMI can refinance into today's low rates without an increase to their PMI coverage. Lender-paid mortgage insurance or borrower-paid mortgage insurance -- the coverage remains the same.
This is especially helpful to homeowners in hard-hit cities such as Riverside, California and Tampa, Florida where the typical refinancing homeowner has lost more than 30% of home equity since purchase.
HARP was initially launched as part of the American Reinvestment and Recovery Act of 2009. It's been used more than 3 million times in its first five years.
Among these refinances, patterns have emerged. For example, the more equity that a homeowner has in the home to be refinanced, the more likely that homeowner will refinance into a 15- or 20-year loan term.
Here's how HARP homeowners refinanced last quarter, based on their existing home loan-to-value.
Furthermore, as HARP 2.0 expands to reach more homeowners -- as HARP 3, perhaps -- the share of U.S. households refinancing into shorter-term such as the 15-year loans may increase.
Mortgage rates remain low for all loan types.
15-year mortgages remain popular and "on sale". See how much money you can save with a refinance to lower rates. Even if the shorter loan term makes your mortgage payment rise, the amount of interest you'll save over the long-term is monstrous.
Get a live rate quote and compare the pricing available via multiple mortgage products -- 30-year term or otherwise. With zero-closing cost loans still widely available, the time may be right to refinance.

UCLA NP program Fall 2013
0Feb 28, '13 by mnmaryHey all, Starting this thread to find out if anyone else has applied to ucla's np program starting this fall 2013. I applied for Acute care np. Would love to find out who has what information. Best of luck
0Mar 2, '13 by moicurn4115Hi mnmary! I too applied to UCLA's ACNP program! Have you checked your decision status online yet? I heard that they've already sent out some rejection letters and just sent out acceptance/wait list letters on March 1. Where are you from? I'm from Illinois so I'll have to wait awhile for any sort of letter, the waiting is unbearable!!
0Mar 3, '13 by moicurn4115https://www.gradadmissions.ucla.edu/...sionStatus.asp
Type in you email, click the Fall-2013 button, type in your password, press continue, then it should tell you your status (so far it's just been telling people they've either been rejected or a decision has not been made yet, meaning your either on the waitlist or admitted). Sorry this is so long!
0Mar 3, '13 by moicurn4115mnmary, did you click on the Fall-2013 part under application term? I also thought my just said submitted until I actually clicked the term and then it had me type in my password to get to my "letter"
0Mar 3, '13 by murse89Hi everyone! I applied for the AGNP program for fall 2013 and am also anxiously waiting to hear back about my admission status. I saw that the MECN students did start receiving their acceptance letters via snail mail on March 1st. I was wondering if anyone knew whether that was just limited to MECN students or for all of the Masters programs? This is my first time applying so I don't know how it was for the previous years.
Also, just wondering if anyone else applied to other california schools? I applied to UCSF too but still haven't heard back from them either.
Good luck to all of you!

9 of us drove to eat at Korean BBQ, in Korea town, that took us about 10 min or so to arrive to. If your in such a large group I suggest breaking it up in two to be seated much faster, also read rules as restuarant we sat at charged for meat left over by the pound? We also ended choosing the 9.99 menue each and somehow ended up paying a $20 gratuity fee, that unless it was written in Korean we did not know about prior, nor told about.

This was a first-class performance in every way and was very enjoyable. I appreciated the classical music that allowed for a connection with the past while presenting some more modern choreography.

Beethoven music was great. Choreography was lame, uninspired. We left during intermission. Not worth the time.

This event was spectacular and culturally enriching. I would recommend this dance company to everyone. The best part was all the male dancers who showed their ballet skills and grand flexibity.LOVE IT!!!!!!
A favorite of the Luckman stage, Raiford Rogers Modern Ballet returns for it's eleventh season at the Luckman Fine Arts Complex.
Using a movement strongly rooted in classical ballet but still moving boldly forward into new territory, Raiford Rogers' choreography has been described by the LA Times as "bracingly contemporary and superbly aware of how much ballet can express without descending to desperate crossover strategies or hard sell hyper-athleticism."
The Los Angeles based company will present the Last Songs of Beethoven and the Birth of the Avant-garde_ including the ballet premiere of Heiliger Dankgesang. _The Dankgesang (Song of Thanks) is considered to be one of the most rapturous creations in 19th-century music and was written by Beethoven after recovering from a serious illness that he had feared was fatal. It is said that with these complex works Beethoven invented the avant-garde.

Lies, Damn Lies and Identity Theft

To those of you who haven't had your identity stolen, just wait your turn!
I'd like to think that someone hacking my identity is another marker of the apocalypse, though the unfortunate reality of identity theft is instead just a game of statistics.
I obtained my first VISA at the ripe age of 17 (almost eight years ago for those playing at home) and found no reason to change the number even after several renewals. Much to my surprise a company called Betamax VOIP charged me 82.25 a few days ago for starting new service in France.
Betamax, I would soon discover, is one of those low-brow operations that sort of exists, but sort of doesn't. It clearly has some kind of voice-over-IP service, but you wouldn't know it from
the postage stamp of a website
-- which supposedly supports hundreds of thousands of customers.
Betamax refused to give me more information about who opened the account, and I'm sure whoever obtained my credit card information to place a call was already long gone anyway. However, since I didn't know my "security code" at Betamax, the company would not terminate the account. VISA, on the other hand, took all of five seconds to reverse the charge and euthanize my elderly credit card.
Betamax it would seem has a few problems with fraud,
as documented in early January on several voice-over-IP forums
A letter today also notified me that someone attempted to open a Capital One credit card in my name on the same day as the Beatamax charge. Capital One promptly and professionally complied with my request to send the fraudster's information to the FBI, and the card was terminated. But what to do now that at least a considerable portion of my identity has been compromised?
I'll go out on a limb and call myself tech-savvy, especially when it comes to privacy. My invoices are all kept on encrypted thumb drives, I don't use personal information on public terminals or public WiFi, and I've never purchased anything online from a vendor that didn't have immaculate credentials. If I can get nailed with identity fraud, who can't?
Don't be alarmed, it's all statistics, as I said. According to Mint.com and my own paperwork, I used that particular card at 98 different ATM locations and 1143 separate vendors. Chase had actually called me last week to let me know my card was being used suspiciously, though I was able to confirm all the charges.
Potentially, thousands of people have come in contact with the personal information on just that credit card. That's not frightening, but consider the fact that Oregon and Washington police peg identity theft as the current number one drug-related crime. Identity theft makes the criminal world go 'round.
Identity theft doesn't come at you like an atom bomb, as foretold by the admitdly hilarious FreeCreditReport.com commercial. Stop and think about all the people that have detailed records of your residence, date of birth, frequent habits: our grocery store, cell phone company, Mint.com. Dare I put Google in such a category?
There's a lot of data out there about you in the world. Although you should keep your guard up as much as possible, somewhere along the line someone will get your personal information. We as a society are way past trying to prevent identity theft and much closer to realisitically coping with it when it occurs.
My entrance into the the new caste of identity-less untouchables has been a mildly uneventful one so far. Chase, VISA and Capital One have been extremely helpful -- and I'm not even a Capital One customer.
For those joining me in the financial version of
The Scarlet Letter
, the best advice I can give you is to be calm. The credit companies are more than happy to work with you to fix as much as they can even if it takes days. Please see the FTC's
excellent identity theft help site if you feel you've been a victim of identity fraud

RE: Living without Credit
The Irish Patient
The Irish Patient
I'm surprised no one has mentioned Citibank's virtual credit cards.
You create a new virtual credit card each time you place an order online or by telephone with a new merchant. You can set the credit limit and expiration date for the virtual card, although the default is for a card with no limits. The virtual card can only be used by the first merchant you give the number to.
For example, I placed a first order with an online merchant yesterday. The invoice was $101. So I created a new virtual card with a credit limit of $125, not the $15,000 or so that the parent card is good for. Even if a dishonest employee steals the virtual number, it can only be used for purchases at that same merchant and only for the remaining balance of $24. I can increase the remaining credit limit to anything I want if/when I place another order with the merchant.
I never use the parent card anymore. Most of my purchases are online with the v-cards. Restaurants and such are all cash.
