Kitchen Tour: Daniel's Cure-Inspired Project
With the Fall 2009 Kitchen Cure in full swing, and with this week focusing on special projects, we have perhaps the most perfectly timed kitchen tour for you today. This tour comes from reader Daniel, who "inadvertently" started his own kitchen cure a few months ago. He wanted to just take care of one small problem: a cracked floor. Well, this repair ballooned into a much larger project, but the end result is a marked improvement! Read on for the before and after story (and photos!) of Daniel's Cure-inspired budget remodel.
From Daniel:
I inadvertently started my kitchen cure a few months ago. It started with just wanting to remedy one nagging problem in my kitchen, replacing the floor. The ceramic tile floor had been installed over the wrong substrate allowing the subfloor to flex and subsequently crack the tiles and grout. The tiles were constantly moving underfoot when you walked across them.
My intention was to pull up the tile and refinish the existing hardwood beneath. Unfortunately the existing hardwood couldn't be salvaged and I had to scramble to find a new floor material. I settled on an ebonized oak laminate floor. I had always wanted an ebonized floor and had I salvaged the existing floors I would have painted them black too.
As with most projects, one small repair just opened the door to many more. The new black floors made the entire space feel cave-like. I decided I wanted to transform my kitchen into a place I'd enjoy working in. I embarked on a mission to organize and brighten the space.
My budget was limited so the existing cabinets and countertops needed to remain. I installed pull-out cabinet organizers in the base cabinets, including a trash/recycling bin. I brightened the entire space with a fresh bright coat of paint. I even added commercial open shelves above the refrigerator and woven baskets above the cabinets over the stove for storage. The space is tall, so it made sense to maximize the space vertically for storage. A new step ladder tucks neatly away behind the refrigerator. I personalized the space with some artwork over the sink and Thai screens in the windows which add privacy and textile printing blocks which pick up the floor color perfectly.
I want to thank AT for inspiring me to make these changes. There were so many posts that inspired everything from the new floor to the open shelves and the use of color and accents. I have joined the Kitchen Cure as well. Although I feel I have a huge head start, there are many unseen areas I'm ready to conquer now.
Kitchen Tour Questionnaire
What's your cooking style?
I am a novice cook. I fell out of cooking for so long and am now getting back into it. The foods I enjoy have changed a lot too so I'm learning new things. I love Asian cuisine, especially Thai dishes. Also, I like to bake, especially pies.
What inspires your kitchen?
I wanted to create a space that was bright and cheerful that would inspire me to cook and where I would enjoy spending time.
Favorite tool or element:
I love my Emile Henry baking dishes. I started purchasing one piece a year when Williams-Sonoma sold a special seasonal color each fall. Unfortunately they have since discontinued doing this. I use the mixing bowls and casserole dish a lot and absolutely love the pie dishes.
Best cooking advice or tip you ever received:
On Apartment Therapy I once read a post about not apologizing for your cooking. As a novice cook I really try to keep this in mind! It takes courage (for me at least) to try something new and put it on the table open for critique; why apologize for that.
Biggest challenge in your kitchen:
The placement of the refrigerator is a bit awkward. It seems that in 1927 refrigerators must have been much smaller. Turning the refrigerator 90 degrees did help me gain more space to work at the counter although the window is still partially blocked. Some day I would like to do a major remodel and remedy this with a cabinet-depth refrigerator or refrigerator drawers.
Biggest indulgence:
The cabinet organizers in my lower cabinets were a splurge. I have installed them in all but two lower cabinets, but plan to do those eventually. I think they are especially helpful in a galley kitchen layout.
Dream tool or splurge:
Maybe a KitchenAid mixer.
What are you cooking this week?
Pumpkin soup and a chicken curry.
Desert island cookbook?
My mother made cookbooks for my sisters and myself with the recipes we all loved when we were kids. Not only does it contain the recipes, but also many recipes list a family member from whom she got the recipe.
Proudest DIY:
I'm very proud of the new floor. It was more of a chore than I thought and there were many surprises especially during the demolition. I planned to refinish the existing hardwoods beneath the crumbling ceramic tile, but when they couldn't be salvaged I had to fall back on a backup plan to put in a new laminate floor. I am happy with the outcome.

Alfa Romeo Spider Headlight Bulb Replacement
The headlights are the main source of illumination from your Alfa Romeo Spider at night time, which allows you to see where you are going, and more importantly, helps drivers see other motorists coming towards them.
Most modern vehicles allow replacement of just the bulbs, instead of replacing the whole headlight – this is more cost effective.
Most Alfa Romeo Spider's have four headlight bulbs at the front of the vehicle – two for the low beams and two for the high beam/dip lights, as well as separate fuses and relays for each side.
Replacing a headlight bulb can start at around $20 and can increase to $100+, especially if the headlight assembly has to be removed from the vehicle.

Perhaps the biggest potential change for users of the system is the inclusion of NetBSD's pkgsrc package management system by default, and the retirement of the aging FreeBSD-4 ports system.
A full list of changes to the system can be found here.
Installation and post-install setup
As has been the case for over a year now, installing the base system was quick and mostly painless. As always, I did not add users or passwords from the installer, nor did I change the timezone or set up the network until I had rebooted into the installed system, as I find the installer of limited usefulness for these tasks in it's current implementation. Most irritating for me personally, is that the following charaters cannot be used in passwords entered into the installer, despite being valid within the operating system itself:
For more issues with the installer, check out the following pages:
Once the system reboots, the very first thing I do is set it up to use blowfish passwords instead of the default MD5. After this, the root password was entered (so I could use characters not supported by the installer), users created, driver modules for harware are loaded (and set to load at boot in
/boot/loader.conf), and the final touches are added to /etc/rc.conf (network setup, firewall, shutting down sendmail, enabling usb and the console mouse etc.)
Because at the present time updates to the system require rebuilding from source, I like to keep a copy of the release's source on hand. Easy enough to get, as an example CVSup file is provided in '
/usr/share/examples/cvsup/'. Some people prefer to keep a copy of the CVS repository on hand and for those people it's recomended to have the following in
cvs -q
diff -u
update -Pd
checkout -P
Very bad things happen if you try to checkout from the repo without that file, and then attempt to rebuild the system. I am left wondering why it's not included by default, instead of being in the errata for the release.
Also of note in the errata, new users don't automatically have the new pkgsrc related paths in their profiles by default. A minor issue, and easilly fixed, but it leaves me wondering how something like this got missed in the RCs. Do the developers and testers only ever log in as root?
Documentation and packages
Although the man pages are well written, documentation in the DragonFly project overall leaves something to be desired. They have a slightly modified version of the FreeBSD Handbook, but it is somewhat out of date, and still contains references to functionality in FreeBSD not present in DragonFly, and written in such a way as to leave the reader believing them to be DragonFly features (quick off the top of my head example can be found here where it is claimed that "DragonFly is a 32-bit operating system (64-bit on the Itanium and AMD64) and was designed as such from the ground up." DragonFly currently does not run natively on any 64 bit processors in 64 bit mode and there are no plans for port it to the Itanium family of processors.

Look at Me

New French film delivers
Sharp look into familial relationships
By Leonard Quart
The French have always had a gift for making films that are charming, witty, literate, and utterly superficial. Films that on one level are pleasing, but are purely fluff that vanish from the viewers consciousness no more than a minute after leaving the cinema.
But director-writer and star Agnes Jaoui and her co-writer-and co-star Jean-Pierre Bacris Look at Me (which won the best screenplay prize at last years Cannes Film Festival) is one smart, seductive, satisfying French film that is more than just shallow glitter and sophistication. (Their previous film, The Taste of Others, was equally clever and penetrating.)
Its a psychologically astute, satiric character study of some members of the French artistic class dealing with the nature of their familial relationships, and the way the hunger for success alters behavior. Look at Mes narrative is minimal, and the film is skillfully built around good talk and revealing close-ups rather than striking images or virtuosic editing.
If the film has a central character its Lolita (Marilou Berry), a young self-hating student singer: who obsesses about being overweight; has doubts about her singing talent; pursues young men who use and reject her; and rages at her appallingly self-involved father, Étienne (Jaouis real-life husband, Jean-Pierre Bacri). Hes an extremely successful novelist and literary power figure used to adulation and people toadying to him. He is also ill mannered, contemptuous, arrogant, and extremely intelligent. And he treats Lolita without a scintilla of sensitivity or care, calling her my big girl and incapable of even listening to her perform at a village concert, abruptly stalking out to jot down an idea for his next book.
All the performances are first rate, including Agnès Jaoui as Lolitas perceptive, generally sympathetic and honest singing teacher, Sylvia. At the same time, she opportunistically tries to help her commercially unsuccessful, unhappy writer husband, Pierres (Laurent Grevill) career, by connecting with Etienne. Pierres sudden literary success does propel the couple into the same social circle as Étienne, and he begins to betray all he once stood for. He mistreats his long-time publisher Edith (Michele Moretti) and creative partner Felix (Jean-Pierre Lazzerni), and obsequiously curries favor with Étienne.
But its Lolita and her father who are the two most striking and intricate characters. Lolita is sullen and defensive, but she conveys innocence, youthful confusion, and the pathos of a daughter who painfully can never really get her fathers approval. And Étienne for all his casual nastininess emanates authority and even displays charm when he engages in imaginative play with his tantrum-throwing five-year-old daughter.
Look at Me may not be a psychologically profound work, but its sharply observant and humorous. And it succeeds in creating a gallery of believable art/world figures who never cross over the line into caricature. (The film never suggests that they are mere poseurs, they take their work seriously.) Here is one witty French film that delves beneath the surface, and left me hoping that the film would go on for a few more hours.

Korey Smith's late strike was enough to hand Norwich a 1-0 win - their ninth victory in 11 games - against struggling Wycombe at Adams Park.
Smith broke the deadlock 13 miutes from time, sliding home Wes Hoolahan's cutback to fire the Canaries into second place in League One.
Wycombe made a bright start with Jon-Paul Pittman firing over on the turn from close range after eight minutes, but from then on it was all Norwich.
Wes Hoolahan was first to go close for the visitors with a 25-yard drive just clearing the bar midway through the first half before Simon Lappin rattled the bar with a left-footed free kick from the edge of the box.
Chris Martin was next to trouble Wycombe as his rasping 30-yard free kick also hit the bar and Chairboys keeper Scott Shearer then had to tip Russell Martin's dipping volley over.
Shearer was called into action again ten minutes into the second half as he spectacularly turned Russell Martin's long range strike behind.
Matt Phillips then hit the post for Wycombe, but it was Norwich who grabbed the winner when Smith fired home late on.

Last week Governor Cuomo and Mayor de Blasio reached an agreement that will have far-reaching effects on low-income New Yorkers living with AIDS who qualify to receive rent assistance from the City. It reverses a decade-long injustice that was created by the Giuliani Administration and continued through Mayor Bloomberg's time.
In federally subsidized housing or rental assistance programs, low-income tenants are required to pay 30% of their income (usually from SSI or SSD) as rent. Ten years ago, the Giuliani administration found a loophole and began to take up to 70% of the disability income of people living with HIV/AIDS, leaving most with $330 a month or $10.84 a day to pay for everything else – groceries, clothing, transportation, laundry, household and personal hygiene items and all the other things necessary for day-to-day living.
This issue immediately became the rallying point for many people in the HIV/AIDS community. Led by VOCAL-NY and others, activists sprang into action getting support from NYS legislators led by Senator Tom Duane, Assembly Member Deborah Glick and City Council members led by former Speaker Christine Quinn, to pass a bill that established a 30% rent cap. The community was jubilant.
I was at the victory party celebrating the win when former Governor Patterson's staff called to say that despite all the work, he vetoed the bill after pressure from the billionaire Mayor Bloomberg. Celebration quickly turned into despair. It was a moment that I will never forget. In 2010, I participated in civil disobedience along with 17 other colleagues including former Senator Tom Duane, Charles King of Housing Works, and Kimberly Smith of Harlem United and others to protest Governor Patterson's veto. While our arrests were largely symbolic, it sent a message that we were not going to stop until this terrible social injustice was reversed.
James W. Lister, a former business owner, is one of the people directly affected by the lack of a rent cap. I invited him to share his story. James worked for 35 years before becoming disabled from complications of AIDS. He reluctantly applied for disability and, after a very humiliating process, was finally awarded approximately $1060 per month in disability benefits – a system he had contributed to all of his adult life. While $1060 monthly is very little in NYC, he knew he could survive and pay the rent on the apartment he has lived in since 1979. Then the City dropped the bomb that would change James' life. They budgeted him from $1060 to $330 monthly – less than $11 per day.
James shared this with us:
I decided, by the time my status had progressed to full-blown AIDS and I had lost over 200 friends, acquaintances, and intimates, I would not die before my parents. Given the parameters of my hard-earned entitlement of $10.84 day, I stopped every aspect of living except for the necessities: bath soap, shampoo, laundry soap, fabric softener, the cost for washers and dryers, toothpaste, toothbrush, mouth wash, dental floss, dish sponges, dish washing soap, light bulbs, telephone, cable TV, internet, transportation to (the increasing list of) doctors' appointments, co-pays and deductibles for doctors and tests and for (the increasing number of) prescription medications. I was not going to die or become homeless. Before AIDS I had saved up for vacation, now it was shoes.
Unfortunately, sacrificing everything in my life, including haircuts, shaving, deodorant, new sheets and towels when they wear through, did not go far enough and I was forced to collect bottles and cans for cash to survive. I had already started wearing clothes from friends who had died.
I constantly lived in the very unhealthy state both from AIDS and the relentless fear I could fall behind in rent due to an emergency expense. I could not bear to lose the apartment that has been my home since July 1, 1979.
My medication regime had grown from three medications two and three times a day, to 30 medications one and two times a day, plus a weekly injection. There are two and a half shelves in my kitchen cabinets that are devoted to managing my medications. I knew I couldn't do this if I was homeless.
But things got worse. My Mother died on April 4, 2009 in California. I could not afford the plane fare to attend her funeral or bury her. My Father died on January 30, 2011. I could not bury him either.
Being forced by the City to pay more than 70% of my disability robbed me of so much – things that most of us take for granted, like the ability to buy a newspaper or meet a friend for dinner, the ability to buy new pants when the old ones wear out or stock up on groceries when bad weather is predicted – but when it took away my ability to properly mourn the death of my parents, that was the final straw.
I've worked alongside VOCAL-NY, Bailey House, Housing Works, GMHC and other groups to demand that the city and state cease taking a lion's share of the benefits I earned as a taxpayer for so many years. If 30% was the standard in most federally subsidized programs around the nation, why did NYC have the right to be so greedy and lawless? I never asked for them for anything more than I was entitled to by law. This week's victory is welcome but bittersweet. I've lost so much, it will take time to reconcile how much I and others have suffered.
What's next? Getting the 30% rent cap has consumed much of my life for over a decade. While I look forward to the first time my income goes from $330 a month to $927, I know that there's still a lot to fight for. Housing is key to stopping the epidemic. The homeless are 10 times more likely to become infected. Stable housing is vital to helping those of us who are already infected to have access to care, manage our medications, and get mental health and other services so that we can live whatever time we have to the fullest.
Already I can start to dream of the future – something I never let myself do before when I was constantly pennies away from homelessness and complete poverty every day. Now I can let myself plan to be there when my nephew Joe, who is in 5th grade, graduates from college. I wasn't able to bury my parents but I'm damn sure I will be there to see and celebrate the youngest generation of my family. And when I get my first check for $927, I may even go to California to visit my parents' grave.

A Recovery No Better than the Recession
The median income of American households decreased by as much in the two years after the official end of the Great Recession as it did during the recession itself.

A Third of Americans Now Say They Are in the Lower Classes
The percentage of Americans who say they are in the lower-middle or lower class has risen from a quarter of the adult population to about a third in the past four years, according to a national survey of 2,508 adults by the Pew Research Center. Not only has the lower class grown, but its demographic […]

Americans believe that having a secure job is by far the most important requirement for being in the middle class, easily trumping homeownership and a college education, according to a new nationwide Pew Research Center survey of 2,508 adults. Nearly nine-in-ten adults (86%) say a person needs a secure job to be considered part of […]

The Demographics of the Jobs Recovery
Hispanics and Asians are gaining jobs at a faster rate in the economic recovery than are blacks and whites, immigrants are outpacing the native born, and men are faring better than women.
Labor Force Growth Slows, Hispanic Share Grows
Hispanics will account for three-quarters of the growth in the nation's labor force from 2010 to 2020, according to new projections from the Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS). One major reason is that the Hispanic population is growing rapidly due to births and immigration. At the same time, the aging of the non-Hispanic white population is expected to reduce their numbers in the labor force.
Young, Underemployed and Optimistic
Young adults hit hard by the recession. A plurality of the public believes young adults, rather than middle-aged or older adults, are having the toughest time in today's economy.

DevilDark: The Fallen Kingdom Review
If you're one of the millions of gamers pacing anxiously, waiting for Diablo III to hit the shelves next month, then DevilDark: The Fallen Kingdom will help tide you over. It's a pure-blooded hack 'n slash loot-fest that gives fans of the genre exactly what they crave. It's not perfect, but it gets the job done.
Like in many games, you play as a chiseled warrior charged with saving the world from the minions of evil. The story won't win any awards for originality, but the game doesn't waste much time setting the scene. Instead, it focuses on having you slice through thousands of slimes, maggots, boars, and goblins. In every mission loads of enemies lurch your way, but the game still manages to run smoothly and look terrific.
Please cover your mouth when you barf.
Some people may be disappointed that you don't get to choose your class in DevilDark, but even still, there's plenty of room for customization. A skill tree lets you direct your progress as you level up, and the enormous amount of armor and weaponry available to you should satisfy your desire for loot. You can even imbue your weapons with elemental spells, so your hero can use a flaming sword or a poisonous axe if you so choose.
There are two kinds of currency in the game. Many items can be purchased with gold, which spills out of every enemy you kill and every treasure chest you open. However, the best weapons available to you at any given time can only be purchased using crystals, a premium currency you have to pay real-life money to attain. This is disappointing, both because the game itself costs money, and because of the game's pacing.
The enemies are like coin-filled piñatas.
No matter how quick-thumbed and excellent you are at DevilDark, you'll eventually find yourself having to grind out levels before you can progress in the main storyline. That might not be a huge deal, but in a game where you can spend real money to buy the most powerful gear, difficulty spikes seem like a shady attempt on the developer's part to urge you to open your wallet in order to progress.
That's our biggest problem with the game, but we found a lot of smaller issues, too. First of all, the gameplay is highly repetitive. Nearly every mission in the game is a fetch- or kill-quest, so you'll constantly be asked to do things like kill 30 enemies or collect eight cords of wood. Your enjoyment of the game also depends greatly on your tolerance for button-mashing. Also, we often found ourselves swinging at the air next to an enemy, so it'd be nice if they added an auto-targeting feature.
Probably should've worn a shirt…
Since there's such a heavy focus on inventory management and loot-gathering, you'd think you the in-game store would let you compare your equipped items to the items you're browsing. Not so. And although it's a universal app, DevilDark isn't fully optimized for the iPad: the menus show up iPhone-sized in the middle of the screen, and there's no way to customize the uncomfortable button placement.
We realize that's a long list of complaints, but even so, we still mostly had fun playing the game. DevilDark makes the hack 'n slash action and the loot-gathering enjoyable, and that's what counts. The whole is greater than the sum of its parts.
DevilDark looks great and is fun to play. It's far from perfect, but fans of the genre will probably find that the good outweighs the bad. If you like to hack, slash, and gather loot, DevilDark is a solid buy.

Richard R. Smith Named 52nd Sugar Bowl President park
Richard R. Smith has been named the Sugar Bowl Committee's President for the 2009-10 year. A native New Orleanian, Smith is the 52nd president of the organization.
Since joining the Sugar Bowl Committee in 1991, Smith has been responsible for negotiating title sponsorships for the Sugar Bowl with the Louisiana High School Coaches Association, the Louisiana Sports Writers Association, and the Louisiana Soccer Association. He received the "Contributor of the Year" Award from the Louisiana High School Athletic Association in 1999 and also arranged six major title sponsorships, including the annual Prep Classic in the Superdome.
"It is a great honor to be President of the Sugar Bowl which continues to enhance its mission of promoting tourism and economic stimulus for the City of New Orleans and the State of Louisiana," Smith said. "With the Sugar Bowl's economic impact of over $150 million in our 75th Anniversary year, it is our goal to continue to raise the bar to ensure our spot in the BCS rotation for the coming years. No other Bowl has our history of hosting 22 National Championship teams and we look forward to continuing that great tradition."
Smith succeeds Ronnie Burns, who presided over the 75th Anniversary Celebration of the Allstate Sugar Bowl and the Legends Luncheon in January 2009. He will serve with David B. Melius, President-Elect, Lance Africk, Vice-President, Jack Laborde, Treasurer, and John A. "Jay" Batt, Jr., Secretary. The Sugar Bowl's 50th President, Raymond J. Jeandron, Jr. was elected Chairman of the Executive Committee. Michael O. Read, Warren Montgomery, and Michelle D. Gaiennie were elected to the Executive Committee.
A graduate of Jesuit High School, Smith earned his bachelor's degree from Tulane University and has an MBA from Loyola University. He is married to the former Linda O'Dwyer, and they have three sons, Richard, Ryan, and Kennedy. He is President of Richard Smith, Ltd., which for over 30 years has managed and marketed real estate.
The Sugar Bowl Committee was founded as the New Orleans Mid-Winter Sports Association in 1934 for the purpose of promoting amateur sporting events that would stimulate tourism and have a positive economic effect on the New Orleans metropolitan area. The 2009 game is estimated to have had an economic impact of over $150 million while the Sugar Bowl has brought over one billion dollars of economic stimulus to the region over the past decade.

55.33 - Disability Benefits
July 21, 2009 (formerly 50.33)
A. General. If an employee who participates in the University of Idaho Group Benefit Programs becomes disabled while actively at work, one or more of the following benefits may be available for wage replacement and/or health coverage: short and long-term disability insurance, workers compensation, continued medical program benefits, life insurance, and/or disability retirement.
B. Wage Replacement.
B-1. Short and Long Term Disability. Employees participating in the University of Idaho Group Life and Disability Plan are covered by short-term and long-term disability income protection plan, provided at no cost to the employee.
B-2. Process. Application for benefits should be made if an employee anticipates any possibility that absence for non work-related conditions may last for 30 calendar days or longer. Accumulated sick leave must be exhausted before benefits are payable. However, application should be made before sick leave has been exhausted and as early as possible to avoid undue delays. Long-term disability benefits may be available at the expiration of short-term disability. Qualified conditions, duration of benefits, benefit amounts; benefit maximums and other information regarding these programs are governed by the institution's contract. Employees may view the Plan Booklet at Benefits Website.
B-3. Disability Retirement. An employee who becomes permanently disabled, including diagnosis of a terminal condition under certain circumstances may be eligible for disability retirement. The retirement program for accelerated vesting and qualifying disability rules govern. A disabled employee should contact the program administrator for requirements, benefits, application procedures and other information. Contacts include:
B-4. Disability Wage Replacement. Disability wage replacement benefits that are related to a qualified condition that occurred for a qualified individual while actively at work will continue to be paid in accordance with the disability program guidelines. In many cases, when disability is from any occupation and not related to mental health, benefits may continue until the employee is no longer disabled or until attaining age 65. Any new disabling condition that is not related to the condition that first qualified the employee to receive benefits will typically not be covered.
C. Workers Compensation.
C-1. Workers Compensation. Benefits may be available for work related conditions to include medical payments and wage replacement. See APM 55.32 for detailed information and procedures. [ed. 7-09]
D. Health and Life Insurance Benefits.
D-1. Health Benefits. Health benefits for this section typically include medical and dental coverage. Health benefits and life insurance for an employee who becomes disabled and/or his or her covered dependents continue during an employee's disability.
i) Continuation of Benefits During Leave of Absence. When leave of absence is compensated through paid time off such as sick or annual leave or while on paid or unpaid family medical leave, medical, dental and life benefits are afforded on the same basis as working employees. In the instance of unpaid family medical or any other approved leave without pay with benefits, medical, dental and life benefits are also continued. Once pay status ends during leave of absence, the employee must make arrangements to make monthly payments to cover the costs of medical, dental, life coverage or any other costs for his or her dependents that would otherwise have been taken by payroll deduction.
ii) Continuation of Health Benefits for Disabled Employees Unable to Work. If employment ends while an employee is disabled, continuation of medical and dental coverage may be available for up to 30 months from the date in which the disability first began (last day worked). Such coverage will be provided through COBRA if the employee and /or his dependents meet and continue to meet the COBRA eligibility regulations. COBRA coverage is not available when the member has access to any other coverage under a group plan or Medicare. The University will pay the cost of the employee's coverage for the first 30 months of disability. Coverage for dependents may also be continued for up to 30 months. However, the employee must make arrangements with Benefit Services to pay the cost of coverage that would have otherwise been deducted from pay.
iii) Continuation of Health Benefits for Disabled Retirees. In the event that an employee qualifies for disability retirement as discussed in B-4 above, medical and dental, (if eligible) benefits may be continued as a disabled retiree. A disabled retiree must be currently enrolled and have had coverage at least 10 years in the University medical plan. A disabled retiree pays a share of the retiree costs and 100% of the cost of qualified dependents covered by the program. A disabled retiree and all covered dependents must accept Medicare when first eligible. If a disabled retiree is an honored emeritus or honored staff and qualifies for the UI Retiree Health Program (see FSH 3730), coverage under the UI Retiree Health Program with honored/emeritus status will take precedence.
D-2. Basic Life Insurance Benefits. Basic life insurance benefits continue throughout an employee's disability and once qualified by the carrier, can be provided at a waiver of premium. A waiver of premium will keep benefits in force at no cost to the employee even after separation from employment. Continuation of benefits and waiver of premium are not automatic; the employee must submit an application and acceptable documentation. Contact Benefit Services for assistance.
D-3. Supplemental Life Insurance. Supplemental Life Insurance can be continued through self-payment of the premium throughout an employee's paid status, an employee may also qualify for waiver of premium, or have rights to conversion of coverage to an individual policy within 30-days of loss of coverage.
E. Procedures for Disability Benefits.
E-1. Employee Responsibilities.
i) Employees who anticipate more than 4 weeks of lost time should contact Benefit Services immediately to request a disability application form. The employee completes the application, which includes obtaining a physician's statement of disability, and returns the forms to Benefit Services. Once Benefit Services has received the employee's application they will send the request to the Principal for processing.
ii) Claims processing begins when both the employer statement and the employee application are filed with the Principal. Notification letters are sent from the Principal acknowledging the receipt of the application and the status of the claim.
iii) Employees should submit timesheets documenting their use of paid leave time to their timekeeper, Benefit Services, and if necessary, the insurer.
iv) The employee is also responsible for completing other paperwork that may be applicable, such as family medical leave application, shared leave, etc, maintaining contact with their department supervisor, submitting continuing evidence of medical conditions affecting their return to work, and submitting time sheets as appropriate.
E-2. University Responsibilities (Department and HR).
i) Departments will record the employee's sick leave until all sick leave has been used.
ii) Departments who anticipate having an employee on extended sick leave or an employee, who will be off work more than 4 weeks, are asked to call Benefit Services. Doing this will ensure that Benefit Services is aware that the employee will probably be transferring to disability status, enabling Benefit Services to monitor the situation and assure a smoother transition for the employee.
iii) When the employee has used all available sick leave, the employee has the option of, (1) being placed on leave without pay from the university and drawing only disability income benefits, leaving annual leave balances "on the books," or, (2) reducing the appointment percentage to 40% and using any accrued annual leave balances to supplement his or her disability payments until annual leave is exhausted. (The second option would continue income levels for an approved claim temporarily at 100% of pre-disability level until the annual leave balance is exhausted.)
iv) If the employee notifies Benefit Services and their department that he or she chooses to supplement the disability payment with annual leave allowances, the department/timekeeper will need to submit an Electronic Personnel Action (EPAF) form [See 50.03] reducing the employee's percentage of paid time to the appropriate level. Comments should be made on the EPAF that the reduction in percent time is due to a disability claim so benefits are not reduced.
E-3. Information. The disability benefits application form is available from Benefit Services. Short and long-term disability benefits are coordinated with workers compensation benefits. Long-term disability benefits are also coordinated with social security disability benefits and retirement disability benefits and are subject to a $700 weekly maximum benefit. (Note: "Coordination of benefits" means the employee will receive an amount which is equivalent to the larger of one or more benefits, but will generally not receive an amount from all employer-provided sources which is greater than the largest single benefit.) For further information or questions regarding eligibility, limitations, the application process or benefits, call Benefit Services (208) 885-3697.

To correct the "foreign configuration" error reported from an SAS PERC controller perform the following steps:
You can also clear it from OpenManage Server Administrator (OMSA). Whenever the controller finds the RAID configuration to not match or to be out of synch with the rest of the array, it marks it as foreign. This is most common when moving a drive to another machine, but can also happen if the drive goes offline. The drive may have gone offline because it has failed or is failing or it may be a firmware fluke.

CoolerMaster Hyper212 Review
One thing that has always plagued computers is heat. The physics behind the computer is where this heat comes from, and if too much heat is present, you will see your computers performance drop, and even in extreme cases, become unusable. To battle this problem of heat, a heatsink is used. These heatsinks transfer the heat from the computer's main chip, the CPU, to itself, which has a larger surface area, allowing the heat to dissipate faster. Most heatsinks nowadays are growing larger and larger and attempting to get more and more air flowing over them. Recently, the idea of the heatpipe, a hollow pipe filled with a liquid that has a low boiling point, was introduced and a lot of heatsinks then added these to their spec sheets. What CoolerMaster did with the Hyper212 was shrink the heatsink's size but increased the number of heatpipes that run through the heatsink. While the Hyper212 does not hold the record for the number of heatpipes, it does have more than most, coming in at four. They also allow for two fans to be attached to the heatsink to add additional airflow, where most heatsinks only have one. Will these changes allow the CoolerMaster Hyper212 to outperform its larger brothers? Let's find out.
Closer Look:
The packaging that the CoolerMaster Hyper212 comes in is very simple and elegant. The front shows the included fan through a clear plastic casing. The back shows some pictures that were probably taken by a professional and are completely fingerprint free! The back talks about some of the features of the heatsink, including its dual fan design and copper base.
The sides of the case lists what sockets the cooler can be used on and the official specifications.

NEW YORK — Jim Carrey is distancing himself from his own movie, saying the Sandy Hook Elementary massacre changed his perspective on the violence in his upcoming action-comedy movie "Kick-Ass 2."
The actor filmed his part in the superhero vigilante film a month before December's mass shooting in Connecticut that killed 20 children and six adults. But weeks before it opens in theaters, Carrey took the highly unusual step of condemning the violence of a film he stars in.
"Now in all good conscience I cannot support that level of violence," Carrey said Sunday on Twitter.
He apologized to others in the film and added: "I am not ashamed of it but recent events have caused a change in my heart."
"Kick-Ass 2" is a sequel to the 2010 movie whose breakout star was the 11-year-old fighting machine Hit-Girl, played by Chloe Grace Moretz. She reprises the role in the sequel, which Universal Pictures will release Aug. 16. Carrey plays a vigilante named Colonel Stars and Stripes.
A spokesman for Universal said the studio declined to comment. But a producer on the film, Mark Millar, who wrote the "Kick-Ass" comic books the movies are based on, responded in a lengthy blog post saying he's "baffled" by Carrey's announcement.
"Yes, the body count is very high, but a movie called 'Kick-Ass 2' really has to do what it says on the tin," wrote Millar. "A sequel to the picture that gave us Hit-Girl was always going to have some blood on the floor and this should have been no shock to a guy who enjoyed the first movie so much."
Millar said the film "isn't a documentary," and questioned whether violence in fiction is connected to real-life violence "any more than Harry Potter casting a spell creates more boy wizards."
Carrey was outspoken about gun violence following the Sandy Hook shooting. In February when gun sales were increasing, he tweeted that anyone "who would run out to buy an assault rifle after the Newtown massacre has very little left in their body or soul worth protecting."

A BlankTV Premiere Presentation:
The Shell Corporation - "Hear Them Wail"
Artist Bio:
**April 2013 U.S. Tour with Uncommon Men From Mars** Dates on Facebook!
Mission Statement from The Shell Corporation, for immediate media dissemination:
"We shall continue to deliver best value to our stakeholders by providing superior music to our customers, maintaining our high financial performance and improving our standing as a good corporate citizen of the world by aligning our direction in long-term sustainable fashion".
Contrary to popular belief, The Shell Corporation are a band. Jan, Curtiss, Sean and Jake have been in other bands, but we didn't come here to dwell on past indiscretions, we gathered here today to talk about their new band. A band that has been described as Hot Water Music, old Against Me, Jawbreaker and The Flatliners, but much more handsome and talented, by their respective mothers.
Money, Fame... The Shell Corporation craves not these things. Ok, money would be nice but for now they will settle for getting on every stage and down in every basement they can find and screaming at you till they blow their voices out. And while waiting for the checks to arrive they will just keep working soulless day jobs so they can continue to make songs about what's wrong with the world (PLENTY!) mixed with some good ol' fashioned melody.
They released their debut album "Force Majeure" in September 2011 and a 7" EP entitled "Bread & Circuses" and immediately began touring Europe and the U.S. shoving their message down the pie holes of anyone that will hear it. Spring 2012 saw the re-release of their debut on 12" vinyl (Solidarity Recordings), as well as the release of their follow up EP "Time and Pressure" in June 2012. Currently, Shell Corp. is excited to announce the release of a split 7" with labelmates The Mighty Fine.
Somehow in between recording and releasing all these records, they manage to stay on the road constantly, playing over 100 shows in 2012 alone. Odds are they will be playing a city near you soon, so show up and buy them a round.
Hell man, buy two.

Running back Darren McFadden is back on the practice field today, going through the same paces as the other running backs. That bodes well for his playing against the Kansas City Chiefs.
The same can't be said of center Stefen Wisniewski, who still hasn't been cleared to practice. He missed the Raiders game against the Chargers on Sunday night. His status for the Chiefs game is questionable at this point.
Andre Gurode is working at center with the first-team offense in Wisniewski's absence. Also, Tony Pashos is back at practice and working with the first-team today. He sat out the Raiders-Chargers game, too.
McFadden suffered a hamstring injury in Oakland's loss to the Washington Redskins. He departed after only five carries. Rashad Jennings replaced McFadden that game and amassed 116 yards rushing and receiving. Jennings also filled in for McFadden against the Chargers.
Jennings, too, is nursing a hamstring injury. He carried the ball 10 times in the first half against the Chargers but none in the second half, as coaches removed him from the game as a precautionary measure.
Jennings is at practice today and making good on his assertion Monday that his hamstring injury isn't a serious one and that he won't miss any time.
In other news, linebacker Miles Burris was spotted working out on an adjacent field to his teammates. At one point, Burris sprinted the better part of 50 yards without any apparent restriction from the knee he had operated on soon after last season ended.
Burris is on the physically unable to perform list. He is eligible to begin practicing after this week's game. He can play in a game as soon as the seventh game or as late as the 15th, depending upon how the Raiders choose to proceed.
Here's the wording on the new guidelines for players on the PUP as set forth by the NFL:
"Commencing on the day after the conclusion of the sixth regular season weekend (October 15) and continuing through the day after the conclusion of the 11th regular season weekend (November 19), clubs are permitted to begin practicing players on Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform for a period not to exceed 21 calendar days. Pads and helmets are permitted during the 21-day period. At any time during the 21-day practice period, or prior to 4:00 p.m., New York time, on the day after the conclusion of the 21-day period, clubs are permitted to restore such players on Reserve/Physically Unable to Perform to their Active/Inactive List."
McFadden returns to practice, Wisniewski still absent

Madre Chocolate
Friday, April 5, 2013
Kauai Chocolate Tour plus Nanea & Madre Chocolate Bars
In February I went to Hawaii, to the island of Kauai. One of the reasons I chose it for a vacation spot was that Hawaii is the only place in the United States where cacao can be grown. (I've seen a few trees here and there in botanical gardens, but I wanted to see them outside, fruiting.)
Kauai does not have a long history of growing cocoa, and it's not an easy tree to grow. But there are some small farms that have planted cacao in the past 10 years and those trees are now bearing enough pods to make truly Hawaiian chocolate. (In fact, you can grow all three major ingredients on the islands: cacao, sugar and vanilla.)
There are a couple of places on Kauai to see cacao being grown, I chose a tour called Garden Island Chocolate Farm Tour led by Koa Kahili. Koa also runs Nanea Chocolate. What interested me in the tour was not just the chocolate but that fact that the tour would lead us through a small farm where we'd get to see and taste the fruits that grow on Kauai. I was hoping to get to taste some of the exotic tropical fruits we hadn't seen in the grocery store or at the farmers market since we arrived on the island.
The tour was at a small location, something I'd call a demonstration farm, not a full plantation with acres and acres of each tree. About three dozen people gathered early in the morning, full of sunscreen and bug repellant. We walked around the small farm and Koa would pluck fruits from the trees and share them with us. There was a wide variety, some fruiting and others just flowering or dormant. We tried a few different kinds of oranges, grapefruit and limes. There was a large avocado tree, with avocados larger than grapefruits.
The highlight for me, of course, was the cacao. There was a small grove of small cacao trees planted in rows, not more than two dozen of them and not more than seven years old. They were about six feet tall and had full grown pods. Unlike apple or orange trees, which bear their flowers and later their fruits at the ends of the branches, the cacao puts out flower right on the trunk or branches (kind of like a fig tree does). The flowers are small (see above) and are pollinated by tiny flies.
The pods are tested for ripeness by scraping the shell with the back of machete or knife and it's not green. Since there were not that many trees and the largest one nearby did have some pods, we could see that someone had tested those within grasp several times (the scratches turn black later).
The key experience for me was the fresh cacao. One ripe pod was opened and passed around for each person in the group to take a bean and a little of the flesh. The rind is tough and stiff, kind of like a pumpkin, but more textured. Within that is a softer inner layer, then the pulpy center surrounding the 30-50 seeds. The beans are firm and fibery, about the size of a flattened pecan (in shell). The pulp is white and a cross between musk melon and mango. It's tangy and watery with a stringy sort of syrupy texture. It has no relationship at all to the flavor of the roasted beans.
The seeds themselves are rather lilac in color, and taste, well, rather boring. A little acidic and lacking creamy oomph of the cocoa butter. Each pod, which weights about 400 grams, yields about 10% of its weight in dried, fermented beans. So one pod is about as much chocolate as is required for a nice, high quality chocolate bar. (If the bar contains 40 grams of cacao, which is then supplemented with another 15 grams of sugar to make a 72% cacao bar.)
After harvest, pods are cracked open, the pulp and beans are scooped out and left to ferment. The fermentation process can be done "naturally", which basically means they're just left in a pile with some banana leaves covering them while they naturally ferment. But in some climates they need a little help and are put in wood boxes to keep the heat more regulated to reach the required temperature. The same goes with drying, which happens after the fermentation process is complete and the beans have turned dark red. The pulp is shed naturally as is some of the shell as they dry and are raked around. After that, they're ready to be roasted and made into chocolate products. (Okay, I've really simplified this.)
The next part of the tour was a tasting. Instead of just sitting and eating piece after piece of chocolate, this was a little different. There were fruits as well as chocolate. Some of the chocolate was in bean form, some in bar form, some in truffle form and then fresh pieces of local fruits to mix it up and give us a rest. There were at least twelve tastings, which for me is a lot at once, and gets me pretty wired. (So some I opted out of, especially if they had stuff like, oh, lard in them.)
We tasted garlic chocolate and dark chocolate and nut infused chocolate and some with ginger and other spices. We ate raw beans and toasted beans. We tried soursop and shared an avocado the size of a cantaloup. It was interesting.
One of the most accessible bars Koa makes for his Nanea line is the Nanea Coconut Milk 60%. It's just cacao, sugar, coconut and vanilla. It's still a rather high cacao content bar, even for a dairy milk bar, so it's a very strongly chocolate bar.
I liked the simple packaging. The bar is wrapped in a heavy, paper-backed foil and then has a sleeve over it for the particular bar. Inside the sleeve is a great photo of cacao beans in a cacao pod. A lovely touch.
The bar molding is simple. It's a two ounce bar with segments across its width. Easy to snap into pieces.
You'll need to like the flavor of coconut to love this bar. The fun part is that it uses coconut milk, not coconut flakes. So all the flavor is there, but none of the texture. The chocolate is a little chalky and robust. The coconut is sharp, kind of like a cheddar cheese can be sharp. It's woodsy and nutty with a sort of cutting note towards the end. The cocoa has a lot of the same woodsy characteristics along with a wholesome fudge brownie batter flavor.
If you know someone who likes coconut but is also dairy averse, this is a great option.
My prize from this tour though was this small batch bar, Nanea Kauai Chocolate - Wainiha & Kilauea made only with beans from Kauai from two different plantations. The bar was untempered, which explains its chalky appearance and slight bloom. However, the texture is really nothing like you'd expect looking at it.
So I'm just going to describe my impressions, even though they don't make sense. The texture is smooth and creamy but light, like a mousse on the tongue. That doesn't mean that it's actually airy, it just feels that way. It's a little waxy at first, it takes a moment for the heat of my mother to melt the cocoa butter (remember this is untempered, which means that the cocoa butter has formed into one of its other crystalline forms). There's a slight grit to it, but overall it's consistently smooth. The flavors have a lot going on. There's some orange blossom notes along with peppery carnations. Then there's the bitter background, which reminded me a bit of beer. There's also a sort of yeasty quality to it, like egg bread. When I first tried it, it was like eating Challah flavored chocolate. There are some light hints of smoke or maybe lapsang souchong tea. But what's missing throughout out this is a sense of chocolate. Lots of chocolates, especially bars from single estates have strong flavors in them, but there's always a sense of chocolate. In this bar I never really got the blatant and expected chocolate flavors.
One bar I picked up while I was on the island wasn't made by Nanea. It's made on Oahu by Madre Chocolate. The Madre Chocolate Kaua'i Limited Edition is also made from Kauai-grown cacao.
This bar was tempered, I bought it at a farm-to-table restaurant shop called Common Ground in Kilauea. (I also picked up some cocoa butter soap there, too, which my mother gave rave reviews.) Though it's a petite bar (only 1.5 ounces) it was $13. Islands, they're expensive.
The bar traveled well. I always appreciate a really thick foil wrapping. (I also kept it in the fridge once I got to my hotel, which sounds extreme, but the fridge didn't actually work and only kept our fruit at 70 degrees, which is perfect for chocolate.)
The texture of this bar is exquisite, it's smooth and has a quick melt with a burst of flavor. Some bars that have this quick melt have a thin flavor density. This is wonderfully nuanced. It's floral, with jasmine notes along with the same eggy bread flavor that the Nanea Wailuia bar had. The woodsy flavors are green and grassy.
I loved the tour, though everyone who goes to something that like needs to be flexible about what will occur. Orchards, farms and plantations are places where stuff is grown, they're on their own schedules. They have bugs and you're outside and it may be hot or damp or smelly. A lot of the success depends on being open to whatever experience is presented. Koa was knowledgeable and affable, the grounds were easy to walk and there was a great variety of stuff to look at and taste. The rest of the group on the tour was also very good, including the children. The weather was cooperative. The price is a bit steep, at $55 each but it was also three hours and involved a lot of chocolate.

Braves need 14 innings to top Marlins
Miami, FL – Justin Upton and Gerald Laird each drove in two runs in the 14th inning and the division-leading Atlanta Braves put together a brilliant bullpen performance to get past the bottom-feeding Miami Marlins, 7-1, in the opener of a three-game NL East series.
There were a lot of zeroes put up by both bullpens, and Miami's relievers had retired a remarkable 24 consecutive hitters leading up to the deciding inning.
Chris Hatcher (0-1), called up from Triple-A New Orleans on Sunday, couldn't sustain the lights-out effort in his first big-league appearance of the season, as the Braves batted around with four hits and three walks.
Reed Johnson and Jason Heyward both walked in front of Upton's two-run double down the left-field line, and Laird tacked on two more when he singled up the middle with the bases loaded.
Chris Johnson added a single to left that pushed two more across thanks to Justin Ruggiano's error, and the Braves held on to hand the Marlins a fourth straight loss.
Five Braves relievers combined for 5 2/3 hitless innings before Giancarlo Stanton led off the 13th with a single off David Carpenter (2-0), who stranded two in the frame and earned the win in the four-hour, 14-minute pitching duel.
Mike Minor did not factor in the decision despite allowing just one run on six hits in 6 1/3 innings for Atlanta, which had lost four of five coming in.
"It was a good team win," Minor said.
Kevin Slowey, back in Miami's rotation as a result of Ricky Nolasco being traded to the Dodgers, was pulled after allowing four hits and one walk over five scoreless innings.
He left with a 1-0 lead after Ruggiano's two-out single to left plated Adeiny Hechavarria in the fifth, but the Braves quickly evened things in the sixth.
Heyward greeted Dan Jennings with a leadoff triple, finding plenty of space in the right-field gap and sliding in for his first three-bagger of the season. Upton followed with a sacrifice fly to deep right field to get the Braves on the board, but it was the first of 24 straight retired by Miami relievers.
"Those guys pitched really well," Marlins manager Mike Redmond said of his bullpen.
Minor struck out Jeff Mathis to leave the bases loaded in the sixth, and Jordan Walden stranded a pair in scoring position an inning later by retiring Marcell Ozuna on a routine groundout to second.
Luis Avilan tossed two scoreless innings of relief for Atlanta but needed Heyward to make a leaping catch just in front of the right-field wall to rob Ruggiano of extra bases with one out in the ninth.
Carpenter worked out of a two-on, no-out situation in the 13th by getting Logan Morrison to bounce into a double play and Hechavarria on a harmless flyout to right. Stanton led off the frame with a single -- the first hit by either team since Miami's Derek Dietrich reached on a swinging bunt down the third-base line with two outs in the sixth inning.
Game Notes
The roof at Marlins Park was open at the start of the game for the first time since May 17 ... Slowey made his first start since June 12 ... Since June 16, Marlins starting pitchers have allowed three-or-fewer runs in 19 of 21 games ... Minor has not won in his last five outings ... Miami went 2-for-10 with runners in scoring position and stranded 11 ... Chad Qualls, Steve Cishek and Mike Dunn each tossed two perfect innings of relief for Miami, which took two of three in Atlanta last week but still trails the season series, 5-2.

Another Sunday post! I am hoping in a few weeks to get back to doing some looks and tutorials if time allows! Borghese was nice to send me their Bel Viso kit for a review, and since I have become such a big fan of their products, I was really excited to try the ones I haven't tried yet, and I know I've said it before but ALL their products smell amazing! Like a nice soft, scent you would smell when you walk into a spa. This ENTIRE KIT is $54 on QVC.com! That's a steal! And gives you the opportunity to try their best selling products at once for a low price. Even the reviews give this awesome kit 5 stars. These are NOT sample sizes in this kit, they are generous sizes that will last you a long time so that you can accurately see if they work for you.
I highly recommend this kit for you ladies with dry-normal skin since it's really moisturizing and helps with those whose skin has been affected by winter weather. It keeps my skin moisturized without feeling greasy and without causing me to breakout; and there's a lot of product to last me a long time.
What's in the kit:
- 2.5 oz Esfoliante Delicato
- 1 fl oz Fluido Protettivo advanced spa lift for eyes
- 4 fl oz Effetto Immediato spa soothing tonic
- 2.5 oz Fango active mud for face and body
- 1 fl oz CuraForte moisture intensifier
- 1 fl oz Crema Straordinaria Da Giorno SPF25
- 1-oz Dolce Notte re-energizing night creme
My regimen:
I use the Esfoliante Delicato Gentle Cleanser and Exfoliant to cleanse my face in the morning or at night (I only use it once a day to avoid over drying my face), I then spritz a little of the Spa Soothing Tonic on my face and let it sink in and dry (it's also a great skin refresher) as it hydrates and moisturizes the skin. If it's the morning, I apply the Day Treatment Cream with SPF 25, at night I mix the CuraForte Moisture Intensifier with the Dolce Notte Re-Energizing Night Cream (both of which I did an in-depth review in past posts) and apply it on my face; then apply the Fluido Protettivo Advanced Spa Lift for Eyes cream around my eye area to help moisturize my eyes and keep them supple, since that area tends to get dry.
Once a week I use the Fango Active Mud for face and body (at least try to use it one a week!)
From QVC:
What is it: Bel Viso by Borghese translates to beautiful treatment. These seven indulgent products offer a complete facial treatment in the comfort of your own home.
Who is it for: Avid Borghese fans or those experiencing the brand for the first time. This superior skin care kit is suitable for all skin types.
Why is it different: The ultimate treat for you or a fantastic gift. Everything you need to rejuvenate, restore, and firm your face and body.
