The house listener- Peek inside the renovated house of interior designer Belinda Rohan
Belinda Rohan is a petite, softly spoken blonde but she has no problem dealing with big, burly builders, and she found the perfect person to help her renovate her house.
When Belinda Rohan announces - as she gives the tour of her exquisitely renovated home - that her husband met the builder for the first time the day the work finished, it's difficult not to be flabbergasted.
Builders are notoriously tricky, often sexist, and Belinda is a petite, softly spoken blonde, not the type one could imagine standing up to a bolshie, burly builder. Of course, looks can be deceptive and Belinda is well able, and deals on a daily basis with all types of builders - the majority of whom, she says, are quite reasonable to work with.
Belinda is an interior decorator by profession, but unlike many in her profession, she deals with more than just the interior decor. She often does jobs that require structural knowledge of plumbing and carpentry for bathroom and kitchen design.
"I love all sides of the business. It makes you a better designer if you understand how things work, in relation to pipes and sanitary ware. I understand spaces, where the floor joists are to go, what you can and can't do," Belinda explains, adding that it is also crucial to find the right builder. "I spent longer looking for the perfect builder than my husband," she says, only half joking.
It was through renovating houses for herself and her husband Paul - whom she met through mutual friends in O'Reilly's pub in Sandymount - that she happened upon interior design as a career. Prior to that the pretty Wexford woman had worked in insurance. "I'm from Gusserane near Campile, in the heart of the country. There wasn't a lot of interior design there when I was growing up," she recalls with a laugh.
She met Paul when she came to work in Dublin; he's a financial consultant with a background in banking. He specialises in payments technology and has just written a book on the subject. "It's about PSD2, this is new legislation which is going to be rolled out across Europe. His book explains it all in plain English. He consults in London a bit and can be anywhere in Europe at any stage," she notes.
The couple have three children - David (14), Anna (12), and Stephen (10) - and when the eldest was born, Belinda decided to become a full-time mum. "While I had given up work, I needed something; there's only so many lunches you can freeze for babies. I needed to be stimulated. I had a real interest in design and I used to drive my husband demented bringing him to see houses, so I went back and studied design. It's something I'm passionate about. I did numerous courses, one online first, and then I went back to college, to the Institute of Design," Belinda explains.
She also gained a lot of practical experience before setting up her business five years ago. She and her husband moved four times before ending up in their current home, and she renovated each of their homes herself. She also did renovation projects for family. "Then my husband said, 'It might be an idea to stop working for nothing.' So I started taking on clients and their projects," she says.
Typically, unlike many interior designers, who come in at the end of the renovation when colour schemes and furnishings are necessary, Belinda says she likes to come in at the beginning. From then she can source all the appropriate tradespeople. She often sources the architects and engineers as well, though will, of course, work with those who are already on a job.
By coming in early on a project, Belinda says she can get a good understanding of the clients and their needs and desires. "I like to spend a lot of time with the client to get a feel for what they like and don't like. I like to listen to them, and find out their preferences before I put a scheme to them. Listening is the most important thing. But as you're getting to know them, you're working on the layouts of the rooms. I have 3D software and can do Cad drawings," she explains.
Belinda is adamant that she doesn't follow or impose trends, she follows clients' requirements. "What most people want is luxury with comfort. Clients of mine were teasing me that they don't get the same enjoyment staying in hotels any more because their own house is like a hotel but a cosy version. What people want are open plan spaces, it's all about kitchen/diners and islands," she notes, adding that bathroom fitouts are also popular.
"Panelling is starting to get big again, there's a big demand for wood floors and while people still like grey, they also want pops of colour." When it comes to fabrics, wallpapers and soft furnishings, she has a great system worked out. In her office at home she has a library of fabrics and wallpapers and paints and can transport them to the job or she often invites clients to her house where they can see her recommendations in a practical setting. These include her own designs for sofas, console tables and furniture units. "I think it's all about testing and trying. I test things in my own home and see if they will work for my clients," she explains.
Belinda and Paul bought their detached home in Blackrock, south County Dublin, nine years ago. "We had lived in a different house in Blackrock, 65 parties came to view it the first day it went on sale. It was in pristine condition, I couldn't do another thing; it was time to move, I was ready for the next challenge," she recalls, adding that they looked at a lot of houses before settling on their current home. "Paul said, 'I'll buy it if we don't have to look at another house'," Belinda says with a laugh.
The house was 30 years old and needed work.
They moved in in 2007 to get a feel for the house, then moved out in March 2008, had the work done and moved back in the following September. In that time, Belinda had the original 1,800sq ft increased to about 3,000sq ft. She converted the garage into an office for herself, converted the attic into an office for Paul and a bedroom for Anna, and added a huge kitchen/dining area full of space, storage and light, with sliding glass doors to the garden.
She also enhanced the sense of space downstairs by installing double front doors - and they lead into a gracious hallway - and double doors from the kitchen to the garden. She used panelling to great effect.
The colour scheme is soft and restful. This is emphasised by the absence of a TV - it transpires it's hidden away in a cabinet designed by Belinda for that very purpose. Practicality underpins everything, with elegant yet wipe-down wallpapers and fabrics.
And like her designs for her clients, it's all about luxury and comfort combined. The proof of the success of Belinda's formula is that she likes nothing better than staying in and enjoying her own home. "My husband calls me a squirrel, I'm a real home bird. My treat is to light the fire on Friday night and relax," Belinda explains. And she has the perfect place for that.

Hello, I am Miss Young. I received the following email. It is a socalled
"Advance Fee Fraud" letter, where I am promised millions for
my assistance. These stories are all lies, and if I respond, sooner
or later I will be asked to pay a fee. If I pay, another fee will quickly
come up, and it will continue that way until I give up or run out of
money. I will never see the millions, because they never existed.
From: Grace Wiliams <email@example.com>
Date: 02-Apr-2007 16:33
Subject: Child of God
To: firstname.lastname@example.com
Child of God,I got your address from a missionary who came to visit us at the Bujumbura refugee camp Ghana. she told me that you are a child of God that is why I am trusting you with my story.

My parents was killed in the war in Darfur,I was able to
escape to Ghana with my younger sister.
My Dad was a notable politician in my country before he was killed during
the war, I discovered that my dad had some money which he securely hid in two
trunk boxes.He deposited it in a security company here in Ghana since 2002.
The money is about (US$18.500.000) eighteen million five hundred thousand
US Dollars.
After we came to Ghana, we were granted political asylum,then I went to the security company and demanded for the release of the boxes which my dad deposited with them. they told me to provide a delivering address in your country
where the boxes will be ship to because according to them,the agreement my Dad had with them stated that the boxes will be transfered to your country anytime it will be released,I don't have anyone there that is why i need you to assist me in the transfer of the boxes to your destination
My plans is to relocate from Ghana with my sister to your country where we
will be more safe and get a better schooling, but I will need to move out the money left by my Dad.
Once I move the money out to your place,you will help me to invest the money
into real estate and properties.
I have all the necessary documents to help us move the boxes to your
destination legally without any trouble. I am willing to compensate you with
30% of the money for helping us if you are ready to assist us.
Please the earlier you help me the better because our life is no more safe
here.Please write back and let me know if you can help me or not.
Waiting for your favorable reply.
Thank you

The 2014-2015 budget passed the New Hampshire House with 346 votes for and 12 against; it passed unanimously in the Senate. Everyone from Governor Hassan to former speaker Bill O'Brien claimed credit for the bipartisan vote, but the credit, no doubt, resides with New Hampshire voters who told us to stop bickering, avoid political grandstanding, and get to work. If only officials in Washington could do the same.
The budget restored funding to our university and community colleges, to LCHIP and CHINS, as well as to our mental health system. We were pleasantly surprised when revenues came in stronger than expected and made agreement between the Senate and the House easier. If revenues continue their upward trends, we will be able to avoid layoffs of state workers, most departments having been decimated by the previous budget already.
Unfortunately, the Senate and the House failed to implement Medicaid expansion which would have covered about 58,000 New Hampshire residents (the numbers vary) and brought $2.5 billion into the New Hampshire economy, federal money that would otherwise go to other states. The Senate was concerned that this would become an unfunded mandate in the future, while the House argued that we should try it for the first three years, when the feds would cover costs at 100%.
If one feels, as I do, that this is a worthwhile program which would introduce preventative health care and thus reduce the number of gravely ill uninsured people going to our emergency rooms (increasing everyone's premiums), one should get in touch with Republican senators and convince them that Medicaid expansion is the right thing to do, both morally and economically.
The Senate did the right thing, however, in restoring 100% funding for towns affected by the non-payment of flood control money owed by Massachusetts. Salisbury, for instance, will get approximately $85,000 out of these funds.
Renewable energy funds, to the tune of $16.5 million, were unfortunately raided in this budget. We will work hard to restore them in the future.
Speaking of the future, we can expect reintroduction of the gas tax bill and the casino bill in year two of this legislative session. This year's session is about over, except for Medicaid expansion.
I would like to welcome two new businesses to our area. Naughty Nellie's, already known for its fabulous ice cream, has now opened a cafe, and Audrey Pellegrino has done a great job restoring the Country Store in Danbury.
Finally, I would like to congratulate The Andover Beacon on its 100th issue in June. The paper is always in need of volunteers.
I am available at 735-5440 and at email@example.com.

Title – One True Loves
Author – Taylor Jenkins Reid
Publication Date – June 7, 2016
In her twenties, Emma Blair marries her high school sweetheart, Jesse. They build a life for themselves, far away from the expectations of their parents and the people of their hometown in Massachusetts. They travel the world together, living life to the fullest and seizing every opportunity for adventure.
On their first wedding anniversary, Jesse is on a helicopter over the Pacific when it goes missing. Just like that, Jesse is gone forever. Emma quits her job and moves home in an effort to put her life back together. Years later, now in her thirties, Emma runs into an old friend, Sam, and finds herself falling in love again. When Emma and Sam get engaged, it feels like Emma's second chance at happiness.
That is, until Jesse is found. He's alive, and he's been trying all these years to come home to her. With a husband and a fiancé, Emma has to now figure out who she is and what she wants, while trying to protect the ones she loves.
Who is her one true love? What does it mean to love truly? Emma knows she has to listen to her heart. She's just not sure what it's saying.
How do you go about reviewing a book that made you laugh and cry, and simply FEEL so profoundly? I'm staring at my screen and trying to find words and they're not coming to me. With One True Loves, Taylor Jenkins Reid has delivered a poignantly beautiful story of love and loss. She has given readers an angsty love triangle that leaves readers falling in love with two wonderful men, and sympathizing for a heroine undergoing unfathomable circumstances.
"When you lose someone you love, it's hard to imagine that you'll ever feel better. That, one day, you'll manage to be in a good mood simply because the weather is nice or the barista at the coffee shop on the corner remembered your order. But it does happen."
The novel spans a lifetime so I became instantaneously attached and invested in these characters and their fates. The three had known each other from high school so it's not even like one could say he had more of a history with Emma. Each man possessed different characteristics, ones that any girl could fall in love with. Jesse was adventurous and pushed Emma to discover new boundaries and reach for the dreams she didn't know she had. On the other hand, Sam was reserved and almost a boy next door type of feel. Where Jesse wanted to travel the world and establish his own roots, Sam embraced the things he was good at had an appetite for learning. They could not be more different, yet the attributes they each brought out in Emma made her the woman she was destined to become.
"By loving the two of them, I am no longer sure about either. And by being unsure, I might just lose them both."
Taylor Jenkins Reid is one of those authors that I've heard so much hype about but hadn't had time to read. Now that I've finished one of her novels, I'm aching to go on a binge read of all the rest. There is a magical quality to her writing; something that awakens every sense and fiber in your soul. She is able to create characters that burrow into your veins and make you feel alive. I was nodding my head with some of the heartbreakingly beautiful sentiments she discussed. I wept at the impossible situation these three were in, but also at how much I could relate in certain ways.
"There is other love out there for me. But it's different. It isn't this. It isn't this exact love. It's better and it's worse. But I guess that's sort of the point of love between two people – you can't re-create it. Every time you love, everyone you love, the love is different. You're different in it."
One True Loves has a blurb that pulls you in and it certainly delivers on everything it promises. There is heartbreak and warmth, and a journey of discovering what it means to truly love another human being. Readers have their hearts touched by an example of how love evolves and changes, resulting in who we become as people. This story is one I could feel in the very depth of my bones to the point that I already want a reread. This author is incredibly phenomenal and I can't wait to see what else she pens. I lost myself in the pages of One True Loves, but by the end, I somehow found myself too – and that is the reason this author will forever have a faithful reader in me.

George Lucas led his team from Hollywood to a hidden area just north of San Francisco, and changed moviemaking as we know it. Good story today (or here) by Mercury News colleague Mary Anne Ostrom, about Lucas' latest move: into a $350 million digital-arts studio at San Francisco's historic Presidio
"San Francisco is where digital was invented, down in Silicon Valley," Lucas told a crowd of 2,000 invited guests enjoying fried chicken and California wine on the sprawling lawn of his complex.
"This is where video games were invented. This is where the first movie was made digitally," Lucas said. "I think eventually the rest of the world will catch up with us, but right now this is where it is."
–A related Q&A (free registration required for this one) with Lucas about his retirement — yeah, right. He's still going to be making movies.

Footnote: Mercury News newspaper edition carries some great graphics, including a mapped description of the new Lucasfilm digs, and a separate map of Hollywood North — listing the other local companies that were spawned by Lucas' move to the Silicon Valley region a generation ago. For some strange reason, the Merc refuses to post these graphics online. ARGH. Anyway, here's a bare-bones list:
1) Industrial Light & Magic, San Francisco (All "Star Wars" movies, "Harry Potter")
2) Matte World Digital, Novato ("The Last Sumurai," "Down With Love," "The Alamo")
3) The Orphanage, San Francisco ("Sky Captain, "Day After Tomorrow")
4) Giant Killer Robots, San Francisco ("Scooby-Doo," "Romeo Must Die," "Judge Dredd")
5) Pixar, Emeryville ("Toy Story," "Toy Story 2," "The Incredibles")
6) Tippett Studio, Berkeley ("The Matrix: Revolutions," "Men in Black 2")
7) PDA/Dreamworks, Redwood City ("Madagascar," "Shrek")
Update: And if you're into Rize, and "krumping," check this story for how the Bay Area was involved in the movie's production.

MINNEAPOLIS — Cummins announced the new RS125 and RS150 models in the QuietConnect series, now ranging from 13 kW up to 150 kW to back up larger homes and small businesses, including dental and medical offices, grocery stores, gas stations and strip malls. The 125 kW and 150 kW models will be released in the beginning of January, just in time for winter storm season.
The new generators were designed to weather everything from biting winter storms to high-powered hurricanes. Both models are equipped to operate under extreme environmental conditions including cold weather starts well below 0°F and can withstand winds of up to 180 miles per hour when equipped with the necessary accessories. The generator can operate reliably in ambient temperatures up to 122°F, providing peace of mind to consumers worried about grid failure due to extreme heat. The generators are ideal for powering both homes and small businesses through prolonged power outages.
"Every year during winter storm season, hundreds of thousands – sometimes millions – of people lose power, which, in many cases also means heat," said Jodie Wilson, director of marketing communications at Cummins. "Our new generators are designed to power up seamlessly when the power goes down, providing home and business owners with a peace of mind that their families and businesses won't be without lights and heat in the winter months or air conditioning in the summer months. We're constantly looking for new ways to serve our customer base, expanding our capabilities and proving to them that Cummins is the brand they can trust with what matters most."
The RS125 and RS150 are powered by the Cummins QSJ8.9G spark-ignited engine, an adaptation of the rugged and reliable QSL9 diesel engine which was engineered to power demanding commercial applications such as construction, agriculture, and mining equipment, as well as trucks. Gas-powered generators like these provide an advantage when diesel supplies may be interrupted by severe weather. For homeowners and small business owners, this means that they now have a more robust solution to support their power needs in the case of outages.
Both models use PowerCommand 2.3 electronic control, an industry-leading self-diagnostic system, designed to ensure service and preventative maintenance can be completed in a short period of time. Additionally, it allows users can put the generator into Flexible Exercise Mode, enabling the generator to exercise at a time, frequency and duration set by the customer, in as little as two minutes every six months.
Patented sound technology, coupled with an advanced and aesthetically pleasing housing design, make the QuietConnect among the quietest generators available on the market today. The RS125 and RS150 are backed by a 2-year limited warranty and supported by a nationwide dealer network of over 500 dealers specializing in installing and servicing generators for homes and small businesses, to provide additional peace of mind to consumers.
David Richey, president for Benchmark Electric, the Cummins-authorized dealer based in Cordova, Tenn., said, "We have had great success with the QuietConnect and the Connect Series products, as a result of superior design and engineering coupled with competitive pricing. The introduction of the RS125 and 150 closes the gap in the standby market, by providing a solution for the mid-size customer base."
In addition to the QuietConnect models, the Connect Series also includes PowerConnect models to give consumers more choices depending on budget and backup power needs. To identify the correct product for your home or business, visit: https://homegenerators.cummins.com/generator-size-calculator
All Cummins standby generators must be professionally installed by an authorized Cummins dealer to ensure safety and local code compliance. For more information on the generators, contact your local Cummins dealer or visit: https://homegenerators.cummins.com/

Getting the most value for your money is probably very important to you. The more you can save, the further you can stretch your budget and the more capable you will be to reach the end of the month without being completely out of money. Since hair pieces like weaves are an essential part of a woman's beauty routine, it is often not possible to skimp on these products when the time to replace them has arrived, yet saving as much money as possible without buying hair that will start to wear out within the first few wears is essential.
With Her Imports, this is possible by simply opting for a bundle deal instead of buying loose sets of weave hair. Closures and frontals can also be combined with an order in a bundle deal and significantly reduce the total of an order, when compared to the potential total of an order when the products are not purchased as part of a bundle.
Her Imports Bundle Deals: How To Buy A Bundle
Her Imports offer quite a large selection of bundles. In fact, a bundle deal can be found on almost every single kind of weave they sell, making opting for a bundle deal instead of individual sets of hair a much smarter choice when it comes to working on a budget that prioritizes saving as much money as possible.
The process of buying a bundle from Her Imports is straightforward and very easy. It is actually very similar to the process of buying separate hair bundles and other hair pieces from the brand. Let's take a quick look at how you can buy a bundle from Her Imports.
Step 1: Start by deciding the type of hair you would like to buy from Her Imports. This is one of the most important decisions to make as the type of hair you select will ultimately define the other options that become available to you. The different options that you can choose from includes:
- Kinky Straight
- Kinky Curl
- Spring Curl
- Tight Curl
- Malaysian Straight
- Deep Wave
- Body Wave
- Peruvian
- My Hair
- Bleached
Step 2: Once selected, you will be presented with the different options that are available for the particular hair type that you have selected. The options may defer from one hair type to another. If you are trying to decide between multiple hair types, then it might be a good idea to take a look at the different options that are available under each type to help you get a better overview of what to expect. The primary options that include bundled deals include the first two options provided on this page – this usually includes a premium and a discount option. The names are self-explanatory.
Step 3: After selecting between premium-quality and discount-quality hair, the final step is to select the bundle you wish to buy. At the top of the product page, you will find the different lengths in which the weave you selected is available in. On the same page, you will also find a selection of both closures and frontals that can be added to your order. Apart from these, you'll also notice a section named "Bundle Deals" – this is where you can select from a variety of bundled offers that saves you money by including multiple sets of weaves, as well as a closure or frontal, at a price that is usually much lower than they would cost individually.
With Her Imports, customers can opt for a bundle while shopping for weaves, frontals and other hair pieces. These bundles offer a variety of products that are needed to achieve a full installation at a significantly reduced price; thus making it possible to save a lot of money while still buying high-quality products that will make you look and feel beautiful.

Nothing could be better than Spring time in Maine - and for me, this Spring has been better than ever. Some teams enjoy the break from training and, many times, each other. In contrast, it seems this group looks hard for excuses to get together. They have been teaching swim lessons to kids in the community, playing intramural softball (the team is cleverly named, "Who Wansit?" after our buddy Peem!), and a bunch of them keep getting together to work out in the weight room and/or pool. We also had a great barbecue last weekend in which the team flew through more food than you can imagine. Eating good food, tossing the 'bee, kicking the soccer ball, and chasing the Casares' dog around turned out to be a real good time.
We have also wrapped up our recruiting for the year and we couldn't be more pumped about the 12 freshman joining the team next year. They bring a great mix of talent, desire, and energy. I have always had two simple rules for membership onto the Bates Swimming and Diving program... 1) An honest desire to improve. 2) An honest desire to help your teammates improve. They seem to truly get this notion, and I know their transition onto the team will go smoothly.
Finally we have elected our captains for next year! Katelyn Drake and Sarah Reingold will lead up the women's team. Peem Chatikavanij and Jake MacNaughton will be at the helm for the men. I am both excited and honored to work these great leaders and know next year could be our best year to date!
Pictures and more updates to come...

NEW YORK--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Inc. magazine today ranked Cirrus Insight #41 on its 35th annual Inc. 5000, the most prestigious ranking of the nation's fastest-growing private companies. The list represents a unique look at the most successful companies within the American economy's most dynamic segment — its independent small businesses. Companies such as Microsoft, Dell, Domino's Pizza, Pandora, Timberland, LinkedIn, Yelp, Zillow, and many other well-known names gained their first national exposure as honorees of the Inc. 5000.
"It's an exciting time at Cirrus Insight. We were just named #41 on the Inc. 5000 list of the fastest-growing companies in the United States. And we recently received our 1,400th customer review making Cirrus Insight the highest rated sales tool on the Salesforce AppExchange," said Brandon Bruce, Co-founder.

The 2016 Inc. 5000, unveiled online at Inc.com and with the top 500 companies featured in the September issue of Inc.

"The Inc. 5000 list stands out where it really counts," says Inc. President and Editor-In-Chief Eric Schurenberg. "It honors real achievement by a founder or a team of them. No one makes the Inc. 5000 without building something great – usually from scratch. That's one of the hardest things to do in business, as every company founder knows. But without it, free enterprise fails."
The annual Inc. 5000 event honoring all the companies on the list will be held from October 18 through 20, in San Antonio, TX. Speakers include some of the greatest entrepreneurs of this and past generations, such as best-selling author and strategist Tony Robbins, SoulCycle co-founders Elizabeth Cutler and Julie Rice, Cornerstone OnDemand founder, president and CEO Adam Miller, Marvell Technology Group director and co-founder Weili Dai, and New Belgium Brewing co-founder and executive chair Kim Jordan.

Browsing the charming boutiques of Corona del Mar. Strolling the sandy beach at Crystal Cove State Park. Joining special friends for summer jazz concerts, the Newport Beach Film Festival, or the surfing thrills of the Newport Beach Pro.
These are only a few of the everyday and seasonal traditions that make The Newport Coast® lifestyle one of the most sought-after in all of Southern California. And, with only one neighborhood offering estate-homes within the gated Newport Coast village of Pacific Ridge®, access to this privileged lifestyle will soon be restricted.
Homes at Pacific Ridge are currently selling in the final neighborhood of Costa Azul by Shea Homes.
"Pacific Ridge is a coastal community with a wonderful difference!" said Suzanne Maddalon, senior director of marketing and research for Irvine Community Development Company LLC, an affiliate of The Irvine Company LLC. "All the area's coastal pleasures and special events are close at hand, yet this gated village's tucked-away location makes it feel a world away. You'll find Pacific Ridge surrounded by picturesque hills, arroyos and canyons. For the fortunate few who make their residential dreams come true at Pacific Ridge, coastal-close living is a truly satisfying experience in this one-of-a-kind setting."
There's always something exciting to do only moments away when you live at Pacific Ridge. Residents enjoy beautiful days filled with surfing, body boarding and sailing. Or making plans for the family's day trip to Catalina, a romantic dinner cruise for two, or simply relaxing under a colorful umbrella in the sand.
Residents of Pacific Ridge benefit from the best in shopping, dining and entertainment, especially with nearby Fashion Island® and Laguna Beach only a short drive away.
"Other popular destinations throughout the year include the Newport Beach Public Library for children's story time," said Maddalon. "And, also the Regency Lido Theatre is a hot spot to catch the newest art-house movie."
Pacific Ridge accesses several scenic walking and bicycling trails that lead to popular coastal destinations, including the 3.5 miles of public beach at Crystal Cove State Park, the protected open space of Los Trancos, Muddy and Deer canyons, and Laguna Coast Wilderness Park.
Zip on down Pacific Coast Highway or the 73 toll road to the coastal cities of South Orange County. Laguna Beach is world-renowned for its trendy shops, charming bistros, diverse art galleries, and the vibrant scene at Main Beach. Further south are the historic Mission San Juan Capistrano and the eclectic shops and restaurants of Dana Point Harbor.
Added Maddalon: "Don't let the exceptional style and all the lifestyle advantages of The Newport Coast pass you by. Come visit the magnificent model homes at Pacific Ridge today!"
COSTA AZUL by Shea Homes is a limited-edition enclave of only 37 luxurious one- and two-story residences inspired by the estates of Tuscany, Provence and Southern Europe. Spacious outdoor areas enriching the different floorplans include courtyards, loggias and sundecks. The homes have five to seven bedrooms and up to seven and one-half baths in approximately 3,627 to 4,889 square feet. Prices start from the $2 millions. Call (949) 497-3516.
By design, homes in Pacific Ridge benefit from an exceptional flow between the interior and exterior spaces, so activities move easily from indoor rooms to sunny or sheltered outdoor spaces and back again. It's the perfect backdrop for great entertaining.
Pacific Ridge's top-of-the-world Recreation Center, located just down the pathway from home, is a focal point for village recreation and socializing. Amenities include a Junior Olympic-sized swimming pool, wading pool, spa, and expansive lounge areas. A poolside patio features barbecue grills, dining areas and an inviting outdoor fireplace.
"Coming home to Pacific Ridge is like coming home to a beautiful resort every single day," Maddalon said. "It's no wonder that many homeshoppers who could live virtually anywhere in the world are choosing Pacific Ridge on The Newport Coast."
Pacific Ridge is planned to include a total of 328 estate residences within its intimate, gated environment. Throughout the community, residents enjoy the grandeur of olive and pepper trees, cascading oaks and sycamores, and the delicate beauty of lavender, sage and rosemary. Also part of the village scene is a 10-acre community park designed with several ball fields to accommodate active sports.
To visit the one-of-a-kind village of Pacific Ridge and tour the exquisitely furnished and landscaped model homes of Costa Azul, take the I-405 Freeway and exit south on Culver Drive. Turn left on Newport Coast Drive and left again on Ridge Park Road. The model homes will be located on the right.
To learn more about the Pacific Ridge lifestyle and its magnificent new-home opportunities, visit www.IrvineRanch.com or call The Homefinding Center™ at (888) 820-0721.

Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi was born on 2nd October 1869 in a small town Porbandar situated on Western coast of India in the Kathiawar or Saurastra region of Gujarat. He belonged to Vaisya caste. His father Karma Chand Gandhi was the 'dewan' of Porbandar a small princely state ruled by a Rana. Karam Chand did not have high formal education but as a dewan he proved himself able, honest, dutiful, virtuous, truthful and courageous man.
Gandhi's mother was Putli Bai. She was pious and religious. Her innocence, goodness and saintly qualities had tremendous impact on Mohandas. Gandhi began his school days as a meek, mild and innocent boy. Gandhi entered in a school at Rajkot. He was purely a vegetarian. One day a young friend of Gandhi advised him to eat meat to have a strong body like an Englishman. Young Mohandas being seduced decided to eat meat secretly. After taking a piece of meat his conscience revolted and he felt as if "a living goat were bleating within me". That was the first and last time he tasted meat. That timid boy one day became one of the bravest man in history.
Gandhi got married at the age of 13 to Kasturba Bai who was simple, virtuous and auspicious lady. She served Gandhi with devotion till last and suffered hardship with him. Gandhi lost his father at the age of 16. At the age of 18 he passed matriculation and entered into a college. During his college days some of his friends and well wishers advised him at that time to study law in England and to be a barrister.
Gandhi at that time was not in a position to spend that huge amount to go to London. Fortune favoured him. Money was arranged by loan. At the time of his departure his mother was unwilling to send him with a fear that her son would be impure in that impure land in England. Gandhi took an oath on the feet of his mother to remain pure in that impure land and not to touch wine or meat. Putli Bai gave him permission to go abroad.
In 1888, Mohandas left for England and there studied law and came out successful as a barister. During his stay at London for three years he acquired wide knowledge through deep study. The English version of Gita translated by Edwin Arnold impressed him too much. The book "Life of the Budda" changed his attitude towards life. He also studied the Bible and works of prophet Mahammad. Through this he could synthesize different religions of the world. Gandhi returned to India in 1891. Before his arrival his mother died.
Mohandas selected Bombay for his legal profession but that profession did not bring self-satisfaction for him. He felt depressed. At that time a Muslim gentleman requested him to take up his case in South Africa concerning his business. Gandhi agreed and went to South Africa in 1893. In a remote corner of that Dark Continent the beginning of a great career awaited him.
Gandhi arrived in South Africa at a small town at Port Natal. South Africa at that time was a British colony. The Englishmen even if their number was very small regarded the black Africans and the brown Indians as inferior uncivilized and barbarians. Many Indians were working as businessmen merchants and labourers but the white people looked at them and called them as 'coolies'.
One evening Gandhi was travelling in a train in first class with a valid ticket. A Whiteman entered into that compartment and became extremely furious to see a coloured man in the first class compartment which was only meant for white people. Gandhi then was forced out of that compartment and thrown into the platform. In that platform in a winter night trembling in cold Gandhi was sitting for the whole night.
Gandhi began to think over the nature of the English racialism and he began to revolt and his conscience prompted him to fight for the cause of human dignity. Gandhi also received in another occasion a serious blow from an English man. He therefore stood up to challenge the inhuman behaviour of the white people.
Gandhi decided to take this matter with the Indians living in South Africa. He summoned a meeting of the Indian community at Pretoria and addressed the gathering. That was his first public speech in life. In his address he convinced the Indians about the dignity of a human being and asked them to uphold their own honour as well as the honour of their country. He stood against the Government which believed in racialism. He demanded social justice for his countrymen. His political career thus started.
The laws of the land were sever against Indians. Gandhi organised a movement against those laws. In return the white government became more oppressive and in 1906 issued an ordinance that every Indian-man, woman or child should possess a registration card for identification. That card must contain the thumb impression.
Police was given the power to enter into any house at any time to check the card. Gandhi described that as a Black Ordinance. In a meeting of the Indians, he declared, "There is only one course open to me namely to die but not to submit to the law." It became a great challenge to one of the mightiest powers on earth. He did not challenge the Government with arms but with courage for a right course.
The weapon that Gandhi used in that war against that Natal Government was Satyagraha. By willingly courting punishment and imprisonment and hence by concretely demonstrating his self-suffering the Satyagrahis hoped to convert those in the authority to right ways of thinking. The use of non-violence by the Satyagrahis directed by Gandhi indicated internal strength not cowardice. There had been passive resistance movement by the Indians in the past but they had failed to achieve their objectives.
Gandhi's non-violence because it was based on strength and acceptance of self-suffering must be chained eventually succeeds. At many points Gandhi's campaign achieved significant success by steaming the rising level of discrimination against the Indian community. During the period of non-violent agitation Indians were asked not to obey that Black Law. Volunteers were raised in large number and the people were asked by these volunteers not to fear punishment.
On the other-hand, the government came forward with a heavy hand. Many satyagrahis were thrown into prison and some were deported and some others were fined heavily. Gandhi was sent to jail at Johannesburg. Indians then defined the law and did not form lines before the registering office for registration.
Gandhi's passive resistance proved its strength. In far-away South Africa where Indians mostly worked as labourers and were hated as 'Coolies', a new awakening was marked among the depressed Indians that astonished the whole world. The powerful South African White Government headed by General Smuts finally bowed down.
Early in 1914, Gandhi and Smut came to an agreement and the government agreed to grant substantial concessions to the Indian Community which were acceptable to the people. This was a great victory of a brown Indian to achieve social justice for Indian Community living in that dark continent of South Africa. Gandhi left South Africa in 1914 and on his way to India he sailed to England. He organised the Indian Ambulance crop in England.
At the close of 1914, Gandhiji left England for India. He did not know what actually he was going to do in his motherland. In January 1915, Gandhi landed in India. He came back at a critical juncture of Indian history to make the destiny of Indians. At that time he was quite unknown to most of his countrymen except some Congress men like Gokhale.
Gokhale had high estimation of Gandhi. Gandhi accepted Gokhale as his political Guru. Gandhiji became a legend among Indians in no time for his personality and principles. Rabindra Nath Tagore described him as Mahatma. Mahatma Gandhi became almost a magical name among Indian teaming millions.
India and the War:
In August 1914, the First World War broke out in Europe. Great Britain entered in this global war thus India automatically became involved in this fight between imperial powers. Indian politicians supported British Government with a hope of getting reforms after the war as return. Britain and her allies loudly declared that they were fighting to preserve the right of all nations to determine their own destiny.
They assured best possible reforms for India after the end of the war. Tilak after his release from jail in June 1914 gave their support to the British war effort. Young Indians were urged to enlist in the army. In the war 2,10,000 Indian officers were sent from India during the first six months of the war. Thousands were dead or injured in Europe and Mesopotamia.
India thus made a significant contribution to England's victory. After the war a top British official admitted "without India the War would have been immensely prolonged if indeed without her help it could have been brought to a victorious conclusion".
For this help, Indian leaders hoped to gain more of political rights. The Congress represented the hope of the nation and demanded reforms. At this critical time, Gokhale died in 1915. Gokhale was the best hope of the British in those worst days of the war. Tilak's ascendancy became inevitable. The Congress was also leaning towards extremism. This alarmed the government.
In the meantime, the wave of nationalism was bringing the National Congress and the Muslim League nearer to each other. Both the organizations agreed for a joint action for political demands. Gandhi attended the Bombay Congress Session in that year. He devoted himself to unite all communities. Hindus, Muslims and Parsis as members of the one Indian nation.
The British Government at that time became deeply disturbed at the spread of terrorist activities and directed stern action to suppress it. Gandhi advised the Government for the change of the attitude.
The war progressed. Indian help towards War efforts also increased enormously. But there was no sign of sympathy from the British side towards Indian hopes. Demands for reforms from all quarters continued to increase. Tilak and Dr. Annie Besant went ahead with Home Rule Movement for self-government. The National Congress also recognized that movement and welcomed Tilak and his followers back to the Congress main stream.
The Congress and the Muslim League jointly issued a charter of demand for self-government. Indian nationalism assumed a more formidable character. Political excitement was get going quickly like wild fire to almost all parts of India. The people were becoming more disloyal to the government for the war time repressive measures.
In view of this, the Congress and other nationalist leaders demanded that Britain should declare her definite policy towards India without further delay. British statesmen became afraid of the situation and finally on 20th August 1917, E.S. Motagu, the Secretary of State made his famous announcement in the British Parliament. He declared "The policy of his majesty's government with which the government of India are in complete accord is that of the increasing association of Indians in every branch of the administration and the gradual development of self-governing institutions with a view to the progressive realization of responsible government in India as an integral part of the British Empire". This declaration however was received with mixed reaction. To Gandhi, though the British promise was vague and far short of expectation yet it was a sign of good gesture.
While Indians were waiting with high hopes for reforms one English man was deputed to investigate if India would remain calm after the war. The British government wanted to be ready with severe laws to keep Indians in their knees. In the month of December 1917 and early months of 1918 Motagu toured India to understand the political desire of the people.
He had an extensive talk with Chemsford the then Viceroy of India and with many eminent leaders about the political concession the Indians should get. On the other hand, the British cabinet felt that definitely there would be political unrest at the end of the war. To face that challenging situation the cabinet decided to take steps much in advance. During the war period, the government suppressed anarchism by the Defence of India Act and other harsh laws. Those laws were bound to go after the war.
Indians were deeply moved by the Russian Revolution and consequent upon that event the British anticipated anarchism in India. The cabinet therefore sent to India Sir Sydney Rowlatt a judge of the Supreme Court of Judicature in England to study the nature of future agitation and to suggest measure against future dangers.
The Rowlatt Committee worked for a month and prepared its report. He framed a new set of laws which became famous as Rowlatt Bills. By this anarchical offences could be tried forthwith with no right to appeal. People could be arrested on the ground of suspicion. Local Government's were entrusted with enormous powers to punish any suspected revolutionary in any manner suitable to them. Freedom of Press was restricted.
The Government felt satisfied that the Rowlatt Bills when made law would stamp out sedition and rebellion. After the war the British Government being Victorious became inspired and felt bold to use the Rowlatt laws in India. It was a great betrayal. The laws were described as lawless against the entire nation. It was at this crucial time Gandhi came out as a man of destiny for future. Gandhi in the Congress meeting, suggested for open deface by not paying taxes till the Rowaltt Laws were withdrawn, astonished on Gandhi's suggestion.
But Gandhi was determined for a revolutionary step to show the world that Indians had the potentialities for resistance to autocracy or tyrannical rule. Dr. Annie Besant warned Gandhi against such movement. But Gandhi had absolute faith on the people of India that they would rise up to defend the honour of the country. He thus decided to start satyagraha which was the moral crusade against injustice based on non-violence.
Gandhi gave a call to the nation to observe one day hartal on 6th April, 1919. Mahatma Gandhi's call to the nation worked like a magic. Millions of men ceased their work, shops were closed, offices and educational institutions became desert. Gandhi's leadership came at a right time. For the first time, the British saw in India silent opposition of an entire people to a mighty Government.
During the day of hartal, some incidents took place at Delhi. Hearing the news at Bombay, Gandhi tried to rush to Delhi but he was not allowed to proceed to Delhi. This news spread like wild fire and people in different parts organised protest meetings in anger and excitement.
The year 1991 constitute a landmark in the history of British India due to four outstanding events:
(i) The Rowlatt Bills and the reign of terror in the Punjab resulting in the Jallianwala Bagh massacre and barbarous enforcement of martial law in the Punjab,
(ii) The emergence of Gandhi and his principle of Satyagraha as the main focal point in the national movement,
(iii) Development of Pan-Islamism and
(iv) The passing of the Government of India Act, 1919 on the basis of
(v) Montagu-Chemsford Report. These factors are interconnected.
The Rowlatt Bill and its measures on Indian population in general and on politicians in particular brought about a great change in the delicate political atmosphere of India handled by Mohandas Karamchand Gandhi.
Lord Chemsford the Governor General followed the policy of reform-cum-repression. On 10 December, 1917 he appointed a committee with the consent of the secretary of State to:
(1) Investigate and report on the nature and extent of the criminal conspiracies connected with the revolutionary movement in India,
(2) And to examine and consider the difficulties that had taken place in dealing with such conspiracies and to advise as to the legislation if any necessary to enable Government to deal effectively with them.
In that committee Mr. Justice Rowlatt, Judge of the kings Bench Division of His Majesty's High Court of Justice was made the President and Sir Basil Scoll, Chief Justice of Bombay, Sir Verney Lovett, Member of the Board of Revenue, U.P., C.V. Kumar Swami Sastri, Judge of the High Court of Madras and Mr. Probhas Chandra Mitter, Vakil of the High Court Calcutta were made the members.
The Rowlatt Committee held its sittings at the shortest time and merely examined the facts and figures submitted by the Government of India in respect of the revolutionary movements in India since its very inception. It had also examined the scheme of special legislation prepared by the Government of India to take the place of the Defence of India Act which would cease to operate after the war was over.
So the committee was mainly intended to prepare an official history of the revolutionary movement in India and to register its approval of the measures proposed by the Government of India to suppress by iron hand.
The committee recommended special legislation both punitive and preventive in character which perpetuated the suspension of the ordinary law safeguarding the rights and liberties of the people and left them at the mercies of the Executives rather the Police even during the time of peace exactly at the critical days of war. The Government of India immediately prepared two bills as per the recommendation which gave effect to their own ideas. As per the provisions the Anarchical and Revolutionary Crime Act 1919 sought to curtail the liberty of the people. It provided for speedy trial of offences by a Special Court consisting of three High Court Judges.
There was no provision for appeal for this court which could meet in Camera and take into consideration evidence not admissible under the Indian Evidence Act. The Provincial Government could order any person, on suspicion "to furnish security or to notify his residence or to reside in a particular area or to abstain from any specified act or finally to report himself to the Police."
The Provincial Government was also given powers to search a place and arrest a suspected person without warrant and keep him in confinement in such place and under such conditions and restrictions as it may specify. There was also provision for an Investigation Committee of three persons appointed by the Provincial Government before whom the person dealt with under the Act could appear and offer an explanation but he has no right to engage a lawyer to advise him.
All the provisions enumerated in the Bill were unacceptable to Indians of all shades of political opinion. They argued that such an action was specially impolitic at a time when the constitutional reforms were in the process of coming and the enactment of the ruthless measures was sure to destroy the chances of any such improvement.
They drew the attention of the Government to the numerous protest meetings against these "Lawless Laws". All the non-official Indian members of the Indian Legislative Council were united opposing the measure and four of them resigned by way of protest. This Bill was passed on March 18 the officials alone voting in its favour.

Cloverdale, Ind. (August 20, 2009) – Michelle Callahan and her Shetland Pony SMHC's Freedom Stylish One, also known as "Stylish," proved they had plenty of style at the 121st American Shetland Pony Congress Show when Stylish won the Vetrolin Grooming Award, sponsored by Farnam. Winning the title of "Best Groomed" pony at the show, earned Stylish and Callahan a year's supply of Vetrolin® Grooming Products provided by Farnam.
"I am so excited that I won this wonderful award, especially since the judges voted on it," Callahan said. "My boyfriend is always making fun of me because I take forever bathing Stylish and I am so tedious when getting the horses ready for their classes. But this time my hard work paid off!"
Callahan, who lives in Warrenton, Missouri, purchased Stylish at the beginning of July from Denise Johnson. Although she only had a short time to prepare Stylish for the show, she said bathing and clipping are always part of her regime. "I can't wait to try all of the Vetrolin® products. I do go through a lot of shampoo and conditioner in order to give a 'good' bath," Callahan said. "I am really pleased to see the diversified ingredients in the products. I also have a dog with a skin condition and the Vetrolin® products work on dogs, so that is wonderful."
The Vetrolin® brand offers a comprehensive line of grooming products from cleaning and conditioning to soothing and invigorating; Vetrolin® products perform to the highest standard – serious grooming for serious competitors™. Vetrolin® products are renowned for the essential oils and invigorating aroma that sets them apart from the competition.

In addition to winning the "Best Groomed" award at Congress, Stylish proved he was more than just a pretty face by spending plenty of time in the winner's circle. The stunning Shetland earned a first in Classic Model Gelding, a first in Classic Gelding 2 Years Old Over and was Classic Gelding Junior Champion. His flashy coat also earned him first in the Classic Gelding Multi-Color class and Reserve Grand Champion in the Classic Gelding Grand Champion Over class.
"The American Shetland Pony Club is really pleased that Farnam, the makers of Vetrolin® products, support our small equines and we are very grateful that they sponsored the Vetrolin Grooming Award," said Johnny Robb, director of marketing for the American Shetland Pony Club and American Miniature Horse Registry (ASPC/AMHR). "Michelle was thrilled that her pony won the Vetrolin award and is sure to become a lifelong Vetrolin fan now. All of our American Shetland Pony Club members take pride in how they care for their ponies, which was obvious by all the gleaming coats at Congress."

Mayor Bill de Blasio of New York City (D) attacked his state's Democratic governor in an unusually candid NY1 interview, the station's political director, Bob Hardt, reported Tuesday.
According to Hardt, de Blasio criticized Gov. Andrew Cuomo for having a reputation of aggressively going after political foes:
De Blasio also reportedly ripped Cuomo for a "lack of leadership" and for not doing enough to advance the interests of New York City. De Blasio's agenda for this year's legislative session — which included affordable housing and education issues — was prominently snubbed this year, which The New York Times partially attributed to de Blasio's poor relationship with Cuomo.
De Blasio, who is about to head off on a family vacation, continued to throw barbs at Cuomo to reporters after news of the NY1 interview emerged Tuesday afternoon:
And in what Hardt called "another de Blasio tweak to Cuomo," de Blasio also touted his willingness to talk about the issues "on record." This could be a reference to a Daily News interview last week in which an anonymous Cuomo administration official — who many people think was actually Cuomo— heavily criticized de Blasio.
Cuomo's office didn't immediately respond to a request for comment from Business Insider on de Blasio's remarks.
