The perfect beach in front of your house
Located in the heart of Costa Rei, Villa Serena is only a few steps away from the sea and a marvelous beach. The crystal-clear water and the white fine-grained sands of the beach are breathtaking even by Sardinian standards. Shallow water and small waves make the beach an ideal location for children at play. Enjoy your holiday in Sardinia to the fullest in this pleasant holiday house.
A villa with ambience and comfort
Villa Serena is a free-standing house with three bedrooms and six beds in all. It is well-appointed with three bathrooms, all of which with a shower, and a kitchen with a dishwasher and a washing machine. The big living room has a fireplace and comfortable seating. The garden surrounding the house offers a lot of space, as the terrace invites you to rest in the shade. A small rarely used road leads the few meters from the property to the beach.
In the area
Costa Rei stretches along a kilometre-long beach with fine sand and shallow water which is perfectly suitable also for children. Sports lovers can rent all kinds of water sports equipment along the beach.
In the village of Costa Rei you can find pizzerias, restaurants, bars and supermarkets, in large part accessible on foot. Once a week the traditional market offers a big variety of fresh local fruits and vegetables, regional specialities and traditional craft products.
In 20 minutes by car you can reach the towns of Muravera and Villasimius where the shops are open all-year round - very practical for the off-season period when not all the shops at Costa Rei are open.
In the surrounding areas of Costa Rei many more beautiful beaches are well worth the visit, for example Cala Sinzias to the south or the hidden coves at Capo Ferrato to the north. In the hinterland the unspoiled mountains of the Sarrabus are waiting to be explored - ideal for day trips into dense holm-oak forests or trekking in between granite peaks and scented Mediterranean vegetation.

Towards sustainable removal of methylthioninium chloride by using adsorption-electroradical regeneration
- Source:
- Chemosphere 2018 v.210 pp. 476-485
- 0045-6535
- Subject:
- adsorbents, adsorption, bentonite, buffering capacity, citric acid, drugs, iron, methylene blue, models, oxidation, pH, sorption isotherms
- Abstract:
- The current need for effective regeneration processes to be used in valorization of spent adsorbent demands the research of novel alternative techniques such as application of Advances Oxidation Processes. In this sense, the recent application of electroradical (ER) processes turned out to be very promising in terms of the drugs degradation from different environments. Thus, in this study, harnessing of a low cost natural adsorbent, Tunisian bentonite (BE), was evaluated for the removal of a model drug such as methylthioninium chloride (MC), and then its regeneration by ER processes was demonstrated. Initially, the BE was characterized and the adsorption of the MC was studied. This process followed a pseudo-first order kinetic and Langmuir isotherm fitted well to data reaching uptake values around 145–155 mg g−1. After that, BE regeneration by an ER process such as electro-Fenton process was ascertained. Due to the high buffering capacity of the BE, the addition of citric acid (1 mM) was necessary in order to assure the acidic medium to favor the oxidation reaction. By operating under optimized experimental conditions (current intensity 300 mA, pH 3, Fe2+ (1 mM) and citric acid (1 mM)) near complete adsorbent regeneration was achieved after 300 min of treatment and the pseudo-first-order model fitted well the degradation data. Furthermore, the adsorbent was efficiently used in successive cycles of adsorption-regeneration without operational problems that proved the efficiency of this technology. From the obtained results, a side-by-side configuration was designed and simulated, confirming the viability of the design at large scale.

Even regular steel diamond hardtail frames were heavier than aluminum frames. That's why mountain bikes shifted towards aluminum and there are millions of aluminum frames out there standing up to much more punishment than putting on a touring load would put the bike under. Somehow they seem to stand up to the abuse.

bye-bye syndrome
n.— «Alec and Cameron are just two victims in what parents and child safety advocates call a growing trend of children being killed and maimed by vehicles—often their family's own SUVs and minivans—backing out of driveways and parking spaces.…The tragic trend is known as the "bye-bye syndrome," said Janette Fennell, founder of the Kansas-based Kids And Cars.org safety advocacy group. Children "don't want to be left behind" when a beloved relative is leaving; they sneak out and put themselves in a dangerous position behind the vehicles where they can't be seen. » —"Parents put spotlight on deaths of toddlers in 'backovers'" by Frank Eltman in Huntington, New York Newsday (Long Island, New York) Apr. 29, 2007.

Belgian waffles are a North American waffle variety, based on a simplified version of the Brussels waffle.[73] Recipes are typically baking soda leavened, though some are yeast-raised.[74] They are distinguished from standard American waffles by their use of 1 ½" depth irons.[75] Belgian waffles take their name from an oronym of the Bel-Gem brand, which was an authentic Brussels waffle vendor that helped popularize the thicker style at the 1964 New York World's Fair.[76]
Overall, the Krups was as easy to use as any machine we tested—though no machine is particularly tricky to figure out, as long as you read the instructions. Still, the GQ502D's intuitive, set-it-and-forget-it system made the process particularly simple. Like all waffle makers, it does get hot in places: The steam vent at the back heated up quickly for us, and the top of the machine was too hot to touch after a couple of rounds of waffles. But the heatproof handle stayed cool, even after multiple uses, something that couldn't be said of competitors like the Black+Decker Removable Plate Waffle Maker (WM700R), where built-up steam around the handle made the machine uncomfortable and risky to use.
Although we included one cast aluminum stovetop waffle maker, we decided to eliminate cast iron models, because seasoning the material added another layer of complexity to use and care. In addition, we were interested in testing a waffle maker with interchangeable plates (one that could also serve as a grill or panini press, for example), but the particular model we had our eye on, the T-fal EZ Clean Sandwich and Waffle Maker, has been discontinued, and in a later conversation with Matt Maichel, he confirmed that a device dedicated solely to waffle making works better than one that multitasks.

The four-waffle Chef'sChoice Classic WafflePro 854 made waffles that were evenly browned and attractive-looking. And in addition to browning controls, this model has a switch for fast baking (crisp exterior, moist interior) or slow baking (crunchy, uniform texture). However, the waffles it made did not distinguish themselves enough to warrant this machine's much higher price tag—for about half the price, our pick can produce just as many excellent waffles.

We looked at one stovetop model, the nonstick-coated cast aluminum Nordic Ware Original Stovetop Belgian Waffle Maker (15040). We ultimately cut it because the iron depends too much on the cook's attention and experience to yield consistently great results. Professional and seasoned home cooks may prefer the great degree of control this Nordic Ware model allows, and if you know your stove well, J. Kenji López-Alt pointed out, you can compensate for hot and cool spots. It's also the easiest to clean, he said, since you can just throw it in the sink when you're done. None of the other waffle makers can go in the sink or be sprayed.
Electric waffle irons are made of two plates similarly set into a hinged body, which is heated through electric coils housed in the unit behind the plates. Some of these electric waffle makers have basic plug-and-play designs, while others offer variable heat settings, timers, and indicator lights telling you when your waffle is ready. For this review, we looked only at electric waffle makers and excluded stovetop waffle irons, since success with the latter has more to do with the cook's skill and the heat source than differences in design.
Finally, beyond the structural superiority of the All-Clad's waffles—their lovely architecture and delicate texture—there was one more winning factor that pushed them over the top: they just tasted better. I can't explain the chemistry behind it—as I said, we used the same batter for every test—but the waffles from this machine seemed to have nuances the others lacked, like apparent notes of vanilla and caramel and a toasty depth of flavor. They tasted like $200 waffles.
That said, quite a few users say that this waffle maker isn't as sturdily built as previous versions of the same model, and that if you don't get the top heating plate aligned just right, it can fall off -- an injury hazard if the plate is hot. The top of the G48TD also gets very hot. Some use pliers to bend the metal clips that hold the heating plates in place, which helps them line up better -- or you can just use an oven mitt to protect your hands.

I hate myself for how much I loved this machine. I don't think anyone should have to spend $200 on a waffle maker, and I was actively rooting for another, more budget-friendly model to best or at least match it. But after a full day of testing and eating, I cannot in good conscience recommend any waffle iron more enthusiastically. None of the machines we tested even came close. The All-Clad has ruined all other waffle makers for me.
"I have no bad things to say about this. It's completely nonstick — not like a little bit nonstick — it's COMPLETELY nonstick. Don't spray it or oil it or butter it. It's nonstick. It heats incredibly fast and cooks fast, too. I'd play with the timing because it often says cook a waffle for four minutes, and I can get a nice fluffy waffle that's not too crisp in way less. It depends on your preference. You can store it upright. I can tuck it out of the way much easier than stacking it in a cabinet somewhere. And lastly, I have made protein waffles and regular waffles and no matter the batter type or consistency, I had great results. My insane toddler keeps asking for waffles and I can't deny him because they are just too easy to make."
Flemish waffles, or Gaufres à la Flamande, are a specialty of northern France and portions of western Belgium.[69] The original recipe, published in 1740 by Louis-Auguste de Bourbon in Le Cuisinier Gascon, is as follows: Take "deux litrons" (1.7 liters or 7 cups) of flour and mix it in a bowl with salt and one ounce of brewer's yeast barm. Moisten it completely with warm milk. Then whisk fifteen egg whites and add that to the mixture, stirring continuously. Incorporate "un livre" (490 grams or 1.1 pounds) of fresh butter, and let the batter rise. Once the batter has risen, take your heated iron, made expressly for these waffles, and wrap some butter in a cloth and rub both sides of the iron with it. When the iron is completely heated, make your waffles, but do so gently for fear of burning them. Cooked, take them out, put them on a platter, and serve them with both sugar and orange blossom water on top.[70]

Here are two ads that show the Manning Bowman Smokeless Table Broiler in direct competition with the Farberware Broiler Robot. These ads came from facing pages in the September 18, 1941 issue of LIFE magazine, and are a very rare example of head-to-head competition. The Farber item was priced $2 less than the M-B appliance. They were still both expensive! $7.95 and $9.95 in 1941 would be approximately equal to $168 and $210 in terms of 2005 purchasing power. We note that the Manning-Bowman folks were practically "giving away" a very nice serving platter (for an extra $2) if you bought their broiler.
Despite the honeyed yogurt and granola on some of the waffles pictured, please don't be fooled. When it comes to milk, you'll need to use full-fat (whole) milk in this recipe; this ensures there is less water content in the waffles, which means the waffles will steam less and remain crisp on the outside. More steam means you'll end up with limp waffles. We don't do limp and soggy anything around here, pun unintended. For flavor that is found in most classic American-style Belgian waffle recipes, feel free to use buttermilk if you have it on hand. It imparts a lovely tang to the waffles. If you don't have buttermilk, I wouldn't bother using the vinegar / lemon juice and milk substitute here. Buttermilk adds a nice tart flavor to the waffles that cannot be recreated with a quick substitute like that. This would work in a pinch, however. Even Bon Appetit agrees.
Although stovetop waffle makers are a little harder to use than electric because you have to regulate the waffle iron's temperature and cooking time, they're also more versatile. They can be used for tailgating, camping trips, or during a power outage (if you have a gas stove). Stovetop waffle irons are usually much smaller and thinner than countertop models, too; so they're the ideal choice for small kitchens with limited storage, camping or tailgating, off-the-grid living, or anyone who enjoys the challenge of learning to create the perfect waffle by hand.
If you love waffles, it's worth giving the large Cuisinart Double Belgian Waffle Maker some of your precious counter real estate. It makes the waffles dreams are made of thick, fluffy, and tender on the inside, and crunchy on the outside. Plus, it bakes two at a time. After you add batter to one chamber, you rotate it in its frame, fill the other side, and rotate it again. Lights and tones signal when each one is done. Unlike less expensive flip machines, this one feels solid and well built. It also comes with a ¾ cup measure for batter.
Our second budget pick, the Hamilton Beach Belgian Style Waffle Maker (26009), is another compact, good-for-small-apartments machine that makes consistently excellent waffles. It produces waffles more like those of our winner: thick, Belgian-style, with a crisp crust and a tender interior. Like the Cuisinart WMR-CA, however, this Hamilton Beach model tends to cost less than $30 but also feels somewhat cheaply made.

The Most Meta- Moment In My Life? Easy. I Was A Character In A Telenovela!!
All I wanted to do was learn Spanish from watching a telenovela- and somehow I became a character in one!!
As the hit FashionRomanceTelenovela "Betty En New York" has come to an end with SPECTACULAR ratings, things are just starting to heat up here in Mexico City, where the ratings for this fun and funny show are always #1 in it's time slot.
Could these fantastic ratings be because I am actually a character in the show, thanks to Sandra Velasco, Luis Mi, Alejandro Vergara, Valentina Del Rosario Parraga and Lizandra Parra!
Yes, "Sofia" is represented in her divorce by Marcela's good friend, "the Best Lawyer in the USA, "Karen Kerbis from Chicago!"
My favorite part of being a lawyer in this Novela is that just as it was when I actually was a lawyer in Chicago, my advice comes from watching telenovelas, because "Law and Order" was too unrealistic.
Here I am!!
I'm "Karen Kerbis, the Lawyer from Chicago!!"
Of course, I was very lucky to be played by the wonderful actress Lizandra Parra!
And doubly-lucky to have Amaranta Ruiz for my client!!! ❤❤
I will never forget that this happened to me!!
Muchas muchas gracias!!

My Favorite Street In México City
What's better than a big street that goes in a big circle??
Here's Episode 3 of my new podcast!
As "Senora Acero," one of the greatest dynasties in Telenovela history, draws to a close, join me for a walk down "Senora Acero" Bad Memory Lane, because no family was more cursed or better loved, except for maybe The Borgias. Now in it's 5th and Final Season, the series will soon be gone forever from our screens, but not from our hearts. Senora Acero had the greatest number of insane characters ever assembled together in one series, and I am going to miss them very much.
The first season was incredible: For example, in the first five minutes of the Premiere, Sara Bermudez' marriage to Senor Acero was interrupted before they finished their "I Do's" by a massacre of the wedding guests in slow-motion, a la the great Will Ferrell movie "Casa de Mi Padre." The fact that "Casa de Mi Padre" was a parody and Senora Acero was a telenovela only made the scene even more delicious. Sara's husband, Senor Acero, was an anti-drug general as well as a very successful Narcotrafficante (a can't-lose career if there ever was one). Just like those excited brides-to-be who ignore a little too much gambling or flirting by their fiancée, Sara had ignored the gazillion hints that her NarcoGeneral boyfriend was in the pocket of the cartels:
For example, when El Senor de los Cielos himself, Aurelio Casillas, shows up at one of your barbeques and presents Los Tucanes de Tijuana as your wedding gift, I'd say it's pretty clear that the only cartel your anti-cartel husband opposes is any cartel he does not run.
As Sara walked down the aisle, the groom was kidnapped and later murdered. Sara was kidnapped, raped, escaped, and fled into the forest on a white horse, still in her wedding gown. She also sliced off the fingers of her kidnapper and persistent arch-enemy, El Indio.
And this was before the first commercial break!
The action never stopped. Sara spent the entire first Season on the run from the forces against her, which included her sisters, her brothers-in-law, and El Indio, all the while trying to save her son's life, work at the beauty shop/plastic surgery center for the great Rebecca Jones, and launder money for the cartels. We know that Sara learned money-laundering from the ground-up because in the ads, Sara is actually standing next to real washing-machines.
It was only at the end of that incredible first season we learned that the boss of the Tijuana cartel, the wild and crazy El Teca, had put into motion every single plot against Sara. In a diabolical scheme so complicated that only CIA architects understood it, Teca destroyed everything and everyone in Sara's life, so that she would have to turn to him for help because there was nowhere else to go. He orchestrated everything from behind the scenes so that Sara would not know she was dancing to his tune, and he did it all from a grotesque mansion with such an awful interior design plan that I almost felt a little sorry for him – that's how bad his taste was.
But none of that is even the best part. The best part of this is that Teca did all of it for love – the unrequited love that he had for Sara since high school, when he was known as El Nopal and drove a crummy car, and she was the prettiest and coolest girl who ruled the school and didn't even know he was alive. All of his insanity was to win the love of his high school crush! At last I finally understood why his mansion was stuffed with art and lots of statues he stole from the Vatican.
To say Season 1 came to a spectacular conclusion when Teca tried to force Sara to marry him by kidnapping her and her son Salvador while holding a priest at gunpoint, would be an understatement, especially when Teca tried to force Sara to wear a hideous wedding dress and she didn't even get to have a wedding shower. In a way, it was like a particularly contentious episode of "Say Yes To The Dress."
Sara also had invited a surprise guest – the DEA. Just before the vows, Teca escaped the DEA once again, Sara shot his henchman El Indio and ground a whole raw onion into his mouth with the heel of her wedding stiletto, and then went to prison for a few years.
I wish I could tell you about all of the fantastic plots, sub-plots and characters in this show. Pound for pound, Senora Acero had more lunatics than any novela I have ever seen. Ask me about Felipe, the Mayor Who Wanted To Be A Narco, and El Empeñada, The Narco Who Wanted To Be An Anesthesiologist.
And then came Season Two…
In Season 2, little Sal was all grown up, and he was played by Mich "Best Eyebrows In The Business" Duval, who has carried the role until Season 5, when he died in the hospital surrounded by his loved ones, who then promptly attacked the doctor. I am not sure if Medical Malpractice lawsuits are as prevalent in Mexico as they are here in the USA, but if I was a doctor in a telenovela I would sure prefer a standard lawsuit from an unhappy family than the beat-down at gunpoint they frequently endure from the survivors. For a Telenovela Doctor, the only subject required for Board Certification is Self-Defense.
Salvador had a hard life: Born with Juvenile Diabetes, as a teenager he unfortunately became a Meth addict after Teca and El Indio surgically implanted a kilo of Meth into his stomach which exploded. But his perfectly arched and luxurious eyebrows helped him overcome many obstacles.
Meanwhile, El Teca, a classic underachiever in high school, really hit his stride as a murderous, wacky Narcotrafficante in Season 2. Whereas in Season 1 Teca had devoted himself to secretly manipulating the life of his unrequited high-school crush to get her exactly where he wanted her: either at their wedding or at her funeral, in Season 2, Sara learned the price for ditching Teca at the altar: spending a lot more time with him, and his adult son Mini-Teca. Sara learned quickly that Two Tecas were Two Tecas too Many!
The end of Season 2 saw the loss of beloved characters like Senora Acero herself, and El Quintanilla, Sara's BFF and eventual brother-in-law who married La Chepina, Sara's sister. Quintanilla was a fun and tragic figure, Falstaffian in his appetites for both life and John Travolta's wardrobe from "Saturday Night Fever." One of his greatest pleasures in his life was having a BBQ like any suburban dad; he even wore a "Kiss The Chef" apron over his disco-suits. One of his greatest disappointments in life was learning that his nephew El Gallo was really his son, and that his new son was sleeping with his new wife. But El Quintanilla kept a pretty positive attitude, right up until that moment when Teca killed him in a hotel room.
In Season 2, many of the supporting characters came into their own. One of my favorite moves was by the actor Roberto Wohlmuth who in Season 1 played a henchman named "El Mudo" who was killed. Roberto returned in Season 2 as Mudo's twin brother El Roscas! In every season Roscas became more important. We could tell he was becoming more important because he stopped dressing like his boss El Indio and started to develop a fashion sense of his own.
By Season 4 Roscas had left the Tijuana Cartel and had gone to work for my hero, La Tuti and El Mero Mero Romero, who was another son of El Teca, who by now was missing in action. Teca's absence from Seasons 3 & 4 allowed other stars to shine, like Jorge Zárate as El Indio. El Indio was a crowd favorite who managed to parlay an appetite for raw onions, Nik-Nik shirts, funny sayings and missing digits into Must-See T.V. And of course there was no one like "Tuti," played by Ana Lucia Dominguez. In Season 1 Tuti was a small-time pill dealer who hung out with teenagers and Barbie dolls. By Season 5, Tuti was the emotional core of the show, despite the fact that she ran a strip club and still played with Barbies. I could never do this phenomenal character justice. Not only does Ana Lucía deserve a very special Premios for this role, but the actors who played against her deserve a Premios for keeping a straight face. She stole every scene she was in, and I will miss mi Tuti forever!
El Indio's relentless pursuit of Senora Acero even after Senora Acero was no longer on Senora Acero led him to destroy the paradise that Salvador, Vicenta and the rest of the mishpachah created on the ranch where they laundered money and sold arms to major bad guys.
In Season 3, the Acero/Quintanilla clan had problems with enemies like Indio, Indio's Frenemy Larry, Larry's rival El Roscas, the Very Handsome Guy From Argentina Who Was Obsessed With Aracely, The Evil Governor Who Was Also Sal's Ex-Father-In-Law, and The Evil Governor's Mother-in-Law, just to name a few. Good characters became bad and bad characters became good, and in-laws were always a problem.
And as the Clan moved from money laundering and arms to rescuing migrants and running for office, they became Narco Avengers, fighting for Truth, Justice, and for the opportunity to have just one Not-Cursed Wedding.
But that was not to be: In Season 3 we lost one of our favorite characters: "Areceli," (Litzy) who was killed at her own wedding. Araceli was one of the characters who really evolved over the seasons: In Season 1 she was a semi-prostitute, a drug addict, and a beautician. In Season 2 she was a famous singer and a great spy. And in Season 3 she signed her Death Warrant when she said "Yes" to Dorriga's marriage proposal.
Seasons 4 and 5 focused on a new generation: The Quintanilla/Acero Clan became a heavily-armed political campaign. Vicenta still worked on behalf of migrants and killed her fiancé when she accepted his marriage proposal. We saw the last of Indio when basically, the Clan drove his body into the side of a mountain using a crane. And Mi Tuti's son (Teca's grandson) left Catholic school in Spain, reunited with his grandfather Teca when Teca kidnapped him, and is nowdiscovering his murderous roots (something not contemplated by "Ancestry DNA") as the show ends.
You can't make a show this great without tremendous writers: Roberto Stopello, Indira Paez, Amaris Paez, Sergio Mendoza, Juan Manuel Andrade, José Vicente Spataro, Gabriella Caballero are just a few of the writers who have brought us this tremendous show through the years, and it was directed by Miguel Varoni, who can simply do everything – he is a telenovela Renaissance Man. Join me as I say Goodbye to some of the most fun friends I have every had!

Katie Barberi walks into the small Italian restaurant in Lincoln Park and somehow, on a muggy Monday night, in a pizzeria with a listless wait-staff and even less-enthused customers, she makes a Grand Entrance, and immediately owns the place, without even trying. That is what is known as "presence." With a delicate beauty and eyes a shade of green that inspires art, Katie Barberi has an over-abundance of presence that cannot be contained within her petite frame.
Not to be outdone, and without even trying, is her fiancée and partner in the most true sense of the word, Craig Hurley. Tall, lanky and quiet, with an easy laugh and fierce eyes that don't miss a thing, Craig is either Jimmy Stewart with a dark side or a younger Sam Elliot with an edge.
They are perfect together, because together, in the space between them, they create something magical, and it's more than just True Love. They seem so different, but maybe it's that difference that ignites their creativity. Katie Barberi and Craig Hurley are taking on the world, or should I say many worlds, and with their graphic novel "Daylight Sucks" they have created very human Vampires who wreak havoc on the worst of humanity. And as if that wasn't enough, they have bravely taken on the right of actors to join the union SAG-AFTRA. Getting to know these two over a delicious pizza (thin-crust- YAY!!) was a treat, but something tells me we that are going to enjoy a few more meals together, especially since they have planted roots in Chicago!
You know Katie & Craig, and you have known them for a long time:
Katie has been in countless,,fabulous telenovelas like "Corazon Valiente," "Dona Barbara" and "Eva, La Trailera," to name just few. I loved Katie in "Corazon Valiente," a telenovela that will always be special to me because it was the first telenovela that captivated me so much that I wanted to learn Spanish so I could understand what was happening.
Katie Barberi, as "Perla" just about killed me. If one hallmark of a great telenovela is really beautiful people are making horrible decisions, then Katie was telenovela royalty because no one in that wild and crazy show made worse decisions than Perla and I LOVED her for it.
Katie has been performing long before she starred in telenovelas and has been in plays, movies and plenty of television shows in the USA and Mexico. She is beloved as the funny fashionista "Ursula" in the Nickelodeon series "Every Witch Way" and it's Mexican counterpart "Grachi". All of the young women who grew up on these shows really love Katie. At the First Annual ALTA Awards at the Victory Gardens,which Craig and Katie invited me to attend with them after dinner, she was surrounded by such a group! ALTA stands for the "Alliance of LatinX Theatre Artists" and it was the most fun awards show I have ever been to. Yes, it was also my first awards show, but Katie agreed it was fantastic, and she's been to the Oscars! As one award-winner put it: "We are LatinX. We cheer and yell for every nominee, and then we all cheer again for the winner!!" It was a joyous event.
When we walked out of the theatre into a cold mist, Chicago was shutting down for the night. Craig and I waited on a quiet Lincoln Avenue for Katie, who was surrounded by enthusiastic fans –award winners themselves for their new storefront theatre in Chicago's Albany Park, these young women had grown up watching "Grachi" or "Every Witch Way" or both, and they were delighted to be meeting Katie. And Katie was so excited for them, and so proud of their work, the admiration was mutual.
A few feet away, Craig watched it all with a smile equal parts love and pride. "This happens everywhere we go. Everyone loves Katie. They just gravitate to her."
I looked up at him, with a bit of a crush, because after all, he did beat up Luke Perry in "90210." Craig might be as close as I will ever come to meeting a cowboy, even though Craig Hurley is not a cowboy, grew up in the Chicago suburbs and graduated from the Chicago Academy of the Arts and the American Academy of Dramatic Arts in Pasadena, California. But he is so laconic, with the air of certainty that comes with the ability to be just that quiet and still speak volumes, that I think this is what cowboys must be like.
Craig has been acting for a long time; since he was a kid. After having performed in multiple shows and plays as a child, Craig began his adult acting career after he moved to Hollywood. After guest starring on shows like "Highway to Heaven," "Freddie's Nightmares" and "21 Jump Street" and playing recurring roles in "90210," "Life Goes On" and "Hunter," Craig was a regular on the Dick Wolf (pre-"Law & Order") show "Nasty Boys" opposite Dennis Franz and Benjamin Bratt.
After years in show business, Craig was the guy with the best stories, so he wrote a book called "27 And All Washed Up." It is his narrative of what he calls his "trip down the Rabbit Hole" as a young actor in Hollywood in the 80's and 90's. Even though the book is filled with great stories about his years in Hollywood, he views it as a text for young actors. Craig is currently re-editing a second edition of the book which will be available soon, when it's going to fly off the shelves.
It was the book that brought Katie and Craig together: They met in Hollywood, on the horror anthology "Freddie's Nightmares," but were too young to appreciate what had sparked between them. Years later, when Craig sent Katie a copy of his book because she was in it, they reconnected, and have been together ever since.
Katie and Craig navigated the treacherous waters of a childhood spent in front of the camera, and came out fine on the other side: Is this why they still look at each other like they are in the fresh bloom of love? Maybe, but I think it's something more: These two didn't just survive those waters – they are flourishing. Is it their charm? Talent? Looks? Their wicked and very in-sync sense of humor? Well, those things help certainly, and they have those qualities in abundance. Nope, it's something more. When I ask them how they have done it, how they have stayed in show business for so long without losing their humanity (and their minds), and with such enthusiasm and optimism, I found the source of their bond: It's old-school toughness, and it's super-cool.
Katie tells me that you can't take anything personally; stay focused and don't give up ever. Ever. In a separate conversation, Craig tells me you have to be able to shift if you want to stick with show business: If acting doesn't work, try writing, producing, accounting. ACCOUNTING, I ask? Yes, says Craig. Studios need accountants too. If you love the business, you will find the right opportunity.
Their philosophy is really just two sides of the same coin: Stick To It. And don't let anyone tell you you can't. Katie and Craig share a resiliency that has served them well, and they are all about their future – a future filled with vampires.
The future looks very bright for "Daylight Sucks" their series of graphic novels that they have created and produced (along with very talented artists) about the Alnwicks, a clan of vampires that destroys (and feeds upon) the worst of society, while being real-life Champions for people that need their help. In other words, they are Vigilante Vampires. Except for the fact that the Alnwicks are The Undead, and also Superheroes, they are just like every other family.
Their leader is "Eva," who is older than Time, but because she is modeled after Katie she looks FABULOUS! She has a younger boyfriend, George, who is about 1750 years old, but stays in shape. Eva fights for Women & Children, while George is the clan's provider and defender. Everyone in the family has a cause: Equality, the environment, animals, immigration, and even romance. True vigilantes, no abuser escapes their wrath, or escapes being dinner.
Craig has been forever fascinated by Vampires, and wanted to debunk the myths that surround them. He does a great job of it in "Daylight Sucks" and also over dinner. Since everything I know about vampires comes from "Dracula" or "The Lost Boys," Craig burst a lot of my Vampire bubbles when we met. Katie is a natural fit for Eva, and when she started writing the backstory for her character, Eva came alive and flowed through Katie as she wrote. Their partners in this amazing endeavor are Mauricio Toro and William Finke; with the artwork of Pablo Solarte and Brigiet Lopez.
There is more than just vengeance, judgment and violence in the series – there is a star-crossed, bilingual love story too. A young woman named Esperanza who has crossed into the USA from Mexico to find the father she doesn't know endures hardship and sometimes horror on her journey, and she crosses paths with the Alnwicks. Will they help her? It's not just Vampires that have to live underground, is it?
It comes as no surprise to anyone who knows Katie and Craig that they have managed to weave into "Daylight Sucks" one the most pressing issues of our day – Immigration. Katie and Craig are a power couple who use their powers for others! In fact, Craig's favorite role is the shy, scared "Billy Bibbit" in "One Flew Over The Cuckoo's Nest" because he can give Billy the strength and courage Billy lacks.
For the past several years, Katie and Craig have been working tirelessly to bring the union SAG-AFTRA to the actors who work for Telemundo. It became Katie's true passion and it's an amazing story. Katie's work on behalf of actors was not easy and was not without a huge cost to her own career, but she has no regrets. Like her alter-ego Eva, Katie simply saw a wrong and tried to right it. Of course, unlike Eva, she did it without killing anyone.
Katie's steely tenacity paid off when, in a historic moment, Telemundo performers were allowed to vote to on whether to join SAG-AFTRA. This election was the first time in 65 years that actors at a major television network took a vote to the National Labor Relations Board. Katie and Craig have a lot to be proud of, but if you ask me, the BEST part of that whole story is that the President of SAG-AFTRA is actress Gabrielle Carteris, who played " Andrea Zukerman" in "90210!" What??!!
I hope that Katie, Craig, Gabrielle and Luke Perry all go out to The Peach Pit to celebrate, and that they invite me.
And when they are not saving the world, Katie is also a lyric Soprano who also has her own jewelry line, composed of pieces as lovely and delicate as she is! And Craig is a fantastic cook and also a structural engineer (which is the family business)!!
Why couldn't they save some of their great qualities for the rest of us??

Want To Be A Prosecutor?Skip Law School And Watch Telenovelas!
What's Law Got To Do With It??
Que tal!
When I started learning Spanish from telenovelas, I was usually very wrong about everything. In fact, I was so dazed and confused during the first month of La Patrona on Telemundo that I thought Antonia and Alejandro were a rich, unhappily married couple with no children, and that Antonia hated Alejandro SO MUCH that the gigantic family portrait over the fireplace only included her. "Thank goodness they didn't bring any children into this unhappy marriage," I thought.
And then one day I realized that they had no children because they weren't married: they were mother and son. Why Alejandro did not get his own apartment is a question for another day, but clearly, there no room in my fevered brain to figure out the subtleties of the show.
But as time went on and I understood more and more every day, I came to really love the courtroom scenes in La Patrona, and in all of the telenovelas I watch to this day. The courtroom hijinx in a telenovela would make the whole world want to go to law school, if only court could actually be as crazy and as much fun. And as a prosecutor in in the criminal courts of Chicago, I love watching what my fellow Novela prosecutors get up to.
For example, in "La Patrona," the prosecutor (Ricardo) was a pretty decent guy with a gigantic Crucifix in his office, which is kind of unusual for government work. He was only able to have sex with women he wasn't married to, which is usually something we see in celebrities and professional athletes, but in Ricardo's case it was because his father had convinced him that his mother had abandoned him to run away with the Tennis Pro, when in reality Ricardo's father had had The Mrs. imprisoned in the local Asylum for the Criminally Insane, so he could spend all of her money on hookers, Tequila, and his Senate campaign. Ricardo retired from the Prosecutor's Office to defend his mother of trying to kill his father after she escaped from the Asylum.
Of course he did.
In "Eva La Trailera," Sofia Lama played "Betty," a prosecutor so in love with Eva's boyfriend Pablo that Betty prosecuted Eva for a murder which Betty knew Eva didn't commit, scared all of Eva's witnesses, conspired with the Real Killer to see that Eva was convicted, lost her job when her bosses found out about it, and then pregnant and broke, moved in with Pablo's family even though no one invited her.
In "El Senor de los Cielos," Erika de la Rosa played "Elsa," the Very Special Prosecutor assigned to prosecute Don El Chema, who was supposed to be El Chapo. Elsa is one of my favorite prosecutors for a couple of reasons: Number 1, I don't even think Elsa was a lawyer. I think that her parents were big campaign contributors to El Presidente, and basically paid him to take her off of their hands. Elsa gave me hope: She showed us that having no working knowledge of the law was not an impediment to a successful prosecution. Number 2, Elsa was dating Chema at the same time she was prosecuting him. When I met Erika at a Telemundo event, and gushed about how much I learned from Elsa about being a prosecutor, Erika quickly excused herself and called for "Security."
And then, in the next season of "El Senor de Los Cielos," Alejandro de la Madrid played Ignacio, a serious and honest prosecutor who became so frustrated by his inability to convict any drug kingpins that he assembled a team of the prettiest women in the office and they formed a Hit Squad, assassinating everyone who was acquitted, which is another way to go. Usually, in law enforcement, when a team of the prettiest women are recruited, it is because someone is assembling a softball team.
ESDLC is an embarrassment of riches of fantastic prosecutors. Now, in Season 6 of the series, we are treated to another great prosecutor from whom we can learn a lot – Nora Requena, played by Maria Conchita Alonso.
Nora has come from New York to extradite El Senor himself – Aurelio Casillas. I love that Nora gets to go to the country from which she is extraditing the criminal. If this happened in real life, we would all be looking to Italy for our defendants. Usually, a successful extradition requires that the prosecutor complete hundreds of documents exactly right, and then hope the host country agrees with us. But in ESDLC6, Nora has the right idea – Go right to the country harboring the criminal to make your case in person, and take a private plane to get there. Nora acts like she is on vacation, and the DEA agents in Mexico are the hotel valets.
Right before she left for Mexico, Nora had just pulled the plug on her husband, literally. Once her husband drew his last breath, Nora left the hospital for Mexico City, and left the hospital staff with her husband's jewelry driver's license and his body, telling them she was finally "free." Well, she is certainly free from all medical and burial expenses.
Nora then flew into CDMX on a private jet. One thing I have learned from telenovelas of any type is that if there is a prosecutor hanging around, that prosecutor leads a pretty glamorous life. They have a driver, they boss the judge around, and they usually have an office filled with antiques, Oriental rugs, and religious objects. Although we haven't seen her office yet, I am sure Nora is no exception to this rule. My proof? She carries a fan. A fan.
It never occurred to me to use a fan before, but now I don't know how I practiced law for so long without one.
A fan is something I could use very effectively in closing arguments, as long as no one ever bursts into the song "Lady of Spain." And when I say "no one," I mean me. Or as long as I don't develop a southern accent and call in sick because I have "the vapors." At least I need to find out what "the vapors" are, exactly. Now that I think about it, I could do a lot of damage with a fan, and most of it would be self-inflicted.
In ESDLC, once Nora and her entourage landed, DEA chief Joe Navarro picked her up at the airport and took Nora right to a meeting at the Mexico City offices of the DEA. With her piercing glare, fan and gigantic glasses, Nora made everyone in the meeting nervous, maybe because they never saw a prosecutor use a fan before.
The DEA wants Nora to ask Mexico to please extradite Aurelio, and Carla The Journalist was there to impress upon Nora the importance of shipping Aurelio to the USA, except Carla had just hooked up with Aurelio the night before and was clearly conflicted about sending Aurelio to the USA when she needed a date for a family wedding coming up.
Their strategy was to show Nora the video shot the day that Aurelio took over the news station, where he broadcast that even though he was the world's biggest cartel boss, he was still better than the crooked bosses of Mexico.
Nora is really one cool customer.
After watching the tape, she announced that the tape was not evidence of anything.
Nora's statement, and her rejection of charges, rocked my world.
I have always thought that a confession is pretty important evidence.
But Nora disagrees and I think she called it "television gossip," as if Aurelio's broadcast was a bad episode of "The Bachelor."
I'll be honest.
If I was trying this case, I would have charged him, queued up that tape, hit "Play" on the DVD player, lit a cigarette, and when the tape was over I would have announced "State Rests."
But no, not according to Nora.
Even with a confession made to the entire country of Mexico which no one could ever complain was coerced because it was Aurelio himself who took over the whole television station at gunpoint just so he could make this statement, the work is just beginning, according to Nora. This could be true, or it could also be that Nora wants to extend her trip to Mexico.
The DEA was disappointed, but perked up when Nora tried to get everyone to go out drinking, which shows that the DEA in Mexico City is like every other prosecutor's office around the USA.
Only Joe agreed to go, even though Nora appeared to be buying.
Nora came well-equipped to take care of prosecutor business. She is armed with an evening gown, gigantic glasses, and fans to match every outfit. Is this a homage to Novelaville's Greatest Villainess Catalina Creel, who had an eye patch to match every one of her dresses, even though most of her dresses were made out of the same fabric as the curtains? Time will tell.
All I know right now is that I wish Telemundo could offer credit for Continuing Legal Education for teaching us how to be better prosecutors from telenovelas!

How I Am Learning To Be A Better Prosecutor From Maria Conchita Alonso In "El Senor De Los Cielos: Day 1
I'm no "Julie & Julia," or Julie OR Julia, but I am a prosecutor in the criminal courts, and I am closely watching a prosecutor in the telenovela "El Senor de Los Cielos."
That prosecutor is "Nora Requena" played by Maria Conchita Alonso, and she just joined the cast on Monday night.
If you don't watch telenovelas (Why not??? Better check your pulse!!), you might think a prosecutor is a fairly straightforward character.
You'd be wrong:
In a series where the Venezuelan Ambassador to Mexico spends more time money laundering than serving tea to guests and reading telex's, and where the Presidente Of México has more orgies in office than Caligula, a prosecutor has many more interesting things to do in the show than prepare Answers to Discovery.
I think I'll learn a lot from "Nora" and what I'm going to try to do is tell you what I have learned every day, in every episode!
Day 1:
There's nothing better than a good criminal prosecutor in a telenovela, and if we are lucky, the prosecutor is good because the prosecutor is BAD. As in Very Bad. And the Worse they are, the more fun they are!
Last night the legendary Maria Conchita Alonso debuted as Nora Requena in "El Senor de los Cielos." In the series, Nora is a New York city prosecutor determined to bring Aurelio to justice. And bring him to New York City, where Nora will take a bite out of crime, and Aurelio will take a bite out of the Big Apple. Will he see justice? That's anyone's guess. Will he see the inside of Nora's apartment? Always a possibility since Nora may be completely unprepared for the power of The Kevorka, a quality Aurelio shares with Kramer from "Seinfeld."
We were introduced to Nora last night.
Since I am a prosecutor just like Nora, I wanted to see how much I could learn from this character, and believe me, in just a few minutes, I learned a lot and will be doing everything differently from now on.
When we meet Nora she is in a hospital room, at the bedside of a man on a ventilator.
Nora is hiding behind a fan, which she dramatically closes when the doctor and nurse enter the room. Honestly, it never occurred to me to use a fan before, but now I don't know how I lived for so long without one. A fan is something I could use very effectively in closing arguments, as long as no one ever bursts into the song "Lady of Spain." And when I say "no one," I mean me. Or any of the arias from "Carmen." Or I don't develop a southern-accented Scarlett O Hara voice and claim to have "The Vapors."
Now that I think about it, I could do a lot of damage with a fan, and all of it would be self-inflicted.
So back to the show … Within a minute of the doctor and nurse coming into the room of the man on the ventilator and Nora coming out from playing peek-a-boo behind her fan, Nora directs the nurse to take the man off of the ventilator.
And just like that, the nurse shuts off the ventilator and the man stops breathing. No one even asks Nora for identification. The nurse hit the button and that was that.
Nora did find time to take a call from the head of the DEA, Joe Navarro. Like Nora, I always have time to speak with law enforcement officers.
Unlike Nora, I don't usually take those calls in the middle of pulling someone off of life support. So given that, Nora seems to be a more selfless prosecutor than I am.
We didn't see Nora for a while after that. I thought maybe it was because she had a lot of paperwork to complete since she ordered the man's death, but that wasn't it at all. When we saw Nora again we were still in the hospital room: The Man took his final breath, Nora announced that her husband had been a complete stranger to her, gave his wedding ring to the nurse, and announced to the doctor and nurse that she was finally free. The doctor hoped that Nora meant "Finally Free to pay the hospital bill," but that's unlikely.
After this short but powerful speech, Nora left the hospital, her dead husband, and the very confused doctor and nurse who were now stuck with the wedding erring and the body that went with it.
So what I learned from Nora in this episode is that you can get away with anything if you are beautiful, dramatic, confusing, and best of all, using a fan.
Let's see what she gets up to tonight.
One thing I can tell you that Nora is not doing any legal research.
Here Is The Reason Why Telenovela Writers Should Write The Academy Awards!
I sure hope you watched Al Otro Lado del Muro on Telemundo last night!
I'll tell you what:
If you want to make the Academy Awards more exciting, the producers should hire telenovela writers, because it would be the fastest 4 1/2 hours on television!
And The Red Carpet would be much more deadly…
So of course last night Sofia realized that she and her daughter, in her flight from Mexico, her Human Trafficker Of a Husband/Governor, and his deadly Chief Of Staff, went right into the Snake Pit of another politician/Human Trafficker, The Very Tall U.S. Congressman whose Spanish accent is even worse than mine
Does Robert Mueller know about this guy?
When Sofia's daughter found photos of missing girls hidden in the vent in the Guest Bedroom, Sofia tried to escape, but it was too late. The Senator had already called her husband to come and get her.
And kill her.
So Sofia knocked out the Senator and stole his wallet, to make her escape. I wondered how she was going to get the best of him, because he is so much bigger than she is but then I realized that she had a lower center of gravity because she's closer to the ground, which is how she kicked his ass!
Meanwhile, that imbecile of a husband of hers stood on the doorstep ringing the bell, like an unwanted, annoying neighbor, wondering why no one will open the door when he can hear music inside, wondering if he wasn't as popular as he thought he was.
As he was trying to get in through the front door, Sofia was sneaking out of the back door!
Marjorie de Sousa in this novela is the closest thing we have to Wonder Woman!
Not only did she beat up a corrupt Congressman, and escape, she also cut her hair and her daughter's hair in a gas station bathroom, and they looked great.
I'm pretty sure coloring and cutting your own hair in a gas station bathroom is something they teach at CasAzul, the Drama School at Argos Studios in Mexico.
Meanwhile, Paula and her Cartel Chief boyfriend Vicentito (not to be confused with her other Evil Boyfriend, the Governor), learned that Sofia gave the incriminating disc to Eliza, the Official Government Baker.
But since Paula didn't know that Eliza had gone to L.A. in search of the elusive, highly-coveted, and extremely hen-pecked Max, The Evil Vicentito and his friends searched the bakery, where they were confronted by Carmen and her shotgun.
Unfortunately they got the best of Carmen and knocked her out, but if they have half a brain between them, they will leave before she wakes up. Carmen is kind of scary under the best of conditions. Armed and headache-y, she's downright dangerous.
Vincentito is really evil, so he is a better match for Paula than her Evil Light boyfriend Ernesto, but I have to wonder if someone has attached an "-ito" to your name, how bad can you be???
Meanwhile, Joel is recuperating at another one of Patrick's Secret Houses. This one was equipped with a surgical suite and lots of clean bandages. The best part about Interpol's health coverage is that the Agents operate on each other.
Against Patrick's best medical advice, Joel checked out early of Patrick's hospital, only to narrowly escape a trap set for him by Paula and Vincentito.
Joel may have lost a lot of blood, and oxygen to his brain, but he did not lose his looks or his street-smarts.
And I'm beginning to wonder if Patrick is as sincere as he pretends to be.
Clearly, he is hiding something – and I'd start with his degree in Emergency Room Medicine.
This novela gets better every day, if such a thing is even metaphysically possible.
Don't miss tonight's episode!!

The New York Times bestselling author offers and intimate portrait of America's original first family in this groundbreaking major biography of Mary Ball Washington, George Washington's mother, filled with rich anecdotes and stories that reveal the father of our country in a fresh and original way. The Mother of the Father tells the story of one of the most controversial, unconventional and complicated women in American history and how she handled the contentious relationship with the firstborn son who would become the nation's most revered Founding Father. Mary Washington has been portrayed as everything from Mother Theresa to "Mommy Dearest." The truth is somewhere in-between. Craig Shirley uncovers startling details about the inner workings of the Washington family. He vividly brings to life a strong, resilient widow who raised six children and ran a large farm on her own at a time when women's duties were relegated to household matters. He also shows that while Mary demonstrated admirable qualities that she passed down to her eldest son, she was also a woman who was stingy, selfish, and overbearing. Though she helped George become one of the world's greatest leaders, Mary also tried many times to hold him back. A staunch British loyalist, Mary remained defiantly so-even as George led the successful rebellion against the crown. When he became the first president of the new United States, she refused to attend his inaugurations. Throughout, Shirley compares and contrasts mother and son, illuminating the qualities they shared and the differences that divided them. A significant contribution to American history, The Mother of the Father advances our understanding of the crucial relationship between Mary Ball Washington and George Washington, and offers fresh insight into this extraordinary figure who would shape our nation-and the woman who shaped him.
