I thought of some more things that are great for babies. Flannel pajamas are terrific for the winter when it's in the 30's and below. But, be careful of flannels because you don't want your baby to get too hot. One of the number 1 causes of SIDS is a baby that was too hot. Usually you can tell if they were too hot because the next morning their head or back is still sweaty. Stick with cotton jammies for the rest of the year. If you're going to do jammies with footies in them the best kind are the ones that zip up! Trust me, you want very little to do in the middle of the night when you're half asleep. If they are buttons it's not a big deal but they just take longer. If you're child hates being wet and they're still waking up every few hours jammies with zippers are glorious!
Also, I just blogged about having anxiety that my child hasn't rolled over yet...drum roll please...HOORAY! On Saturday 3/26 I was visiting my parents in the morning before my friend's baby shower. FJ was just laying on the floor on his back while my Mom and I chatted. I was absent-mindedly helping him roll back and forth on his tummy (that's what my book says to do to strengthen his muscles) and next thing we knew, from his belly to his tummy (which is usually the easiest way to start rolling over) he had rolled over. LOL, I had him try it again because I couldn't believe my eyes. The only bummer was that my husband had missed his first time. Of course I tried to get him to do it a third time so I could record it for my husband and send it to him and FJ would have none of it! I guess he was exhausted by this point and just got mad. I'm so excited that he did it and I was there for his first time!!!!

A prime example is Dannon's Light & Fit blueberry yogurt. "0% FAT, 80 CALORIES" the label screams at us, roping us into purchasing a product that is a far cry from just yogurt and blueberries.
How many of us have bought this without reading its ingredients? Here's our chance:
Nonfat yogurt (cultured grade A non fat milk, modified food starch, fructose, kosher gelatin, vitamin A palmitate, vitamin D3), water, blueberry puree, fructose, contains less than 1% of modified corn starch, natural flavor, blue 1, red 40, aspartame, potassium sorbate (to maintain freshness), acesfulfame potassium, sucralose, malic acid, sodium citrate.FYI, aspartame and sucralose are artificial, non-caloric sweeteners that you couldn't pay me to ingest. We've discussed the dangers of petroleum-based artificial colorants (i.e. blue 1, red 40) many times.
(Tomorrow: How to make your own blueberry yogurt without the synthetic ingredients.)

I follow the tutorial and creted a web site for my company sales system. One of my collegue mention we use the wrong templet, we should use Web application for company application.
Should i continue using web site or change to web application? We are creating application for company sales, inventory, hr ,etc where possible more than 1000++ user. And during month end, it will be high traffic and transaction. can Web Site Template with BLL and DAL handle it? or i just need a powerful server?
Started in middle of a new project. Our design architecture uses an n-tier (not MVC - no controllers) structure with Presentation, Data, Business and Service tiers. However the lead analyst has the majoriety of code all in the Business tier claiming it all contains Business logic. Our data tier is nothing more than a single .dbml model of the primary database to support all of the Linq queries in the Business tier. To my mind Linq queries and classes they use are data access and belong in the data tier but our lead analyst says they contain business logic therefore have to be in business layer.
This article examines n-tier patterns for success and some of the key APIs and issues specific to the Entity Framework. It also provides a sneak peak at features coming in the Microsoft .NET Framework 4 that should make n-tier development significantly easier.

Moisturizers (Men)
Men's professional-grade moisturizers for the face are much more lightweight than creams and tend to have a much lower concentration of active ingredients. While primarily intended to add moisture between a serum and a sunscreen, the moisturizer can double as a lightweight nighttime product.
Men's moisturizer formulas vary by skin type, with a matte or oil-free moisturizer for oily/acne skin types, regular for normal skin types, and soothing or hydrating for dry and sensitive-skin types. With a lighter weight, a men's moisturizer is easily absorbed in the skin. As with men's creams, men's moisturizers should be applied after serums, but before sunscreen during the daytime.

Rocketship Education is a complex of 18 public charter schools spread across four states in the "Lower 48," or the contiguous United States – that excluding Hawaii and Alaska. Commonly shortened to the initialism RSED, Rocketship Education was founded by Preston Smith in 2007, who now serves as the network's Chief Executive Officer. Smith taught in an elementary school for three years, then founded a school with the help of a group he brought together and lead to fruition. After three years at that school, the L.U.C.H.A. Elementary School in California, Preston Smith founded Rocketship Education.
As an administrator of eighteen schools that serve children and their respective families that are economically underprivileged, Preston Smith has learned troves of virtues from the many experiential life lessons he's been subject to – and conquered – at Rocketship Education.
For too long, children with disabilities have been excluded from generalized classrooms, instead being tucked away in smaller classrooms of people all sharing the same disability. Preston Smith employs the meaningful inclusion model where disabled students spend around 80 percent of their schooldays in general education classrooms, in the 18 schools where he oversees operations. This prepares teachers, fellow students, and special needs students in their own unique ways.
Students are made more aware of such disabilities and slowly acclimated to them. Teachers experiment with how to control them in the classroom. People with developmental problems themselves earn a sense of belonging and accomplishment, to top it all off. Similarly, with all three groups earning higher benefits than if they were initially segregated, the meaningful inclusion model is obviously effective.
Instructors are mandated to visit their students in their home lives at least once a year, in which parents and children meet with teachers. This helps instructors craft special lessons around individuals, understanding how their home lives may affect their aptitude of learning.
Teachers should also be of a diverse background, rather than mixing up the races and ethnicities of students. Teachers are the purveyors of information, not students. As such, teachers that are well respected have students that retain material more effectively.

Radios Burn Faster
Read Yellow
(Fenway Recordings)
Harnessing a potent combination of Dischord label punk (think Fugazi or Nation of Ulysses) and college-circuit noise collagists (Sonic Youth, the Pixies), Massachusetts' Read Yellow have accomplished more on their sophomore release than most bands hope to do in an entire career. Radios Burn Faster literally bristles with energy, building on the post-punk pastiche popularized by bands such as And You Will Know Us By The Trail Of Dead and Unwound. It's easier to describe the distinctiveness of Radios Burn Faster than it is to pin down Read Yellow's aural philosophy. They don't subscribe to the emo school of rock, nor are they overtly political, although the album's opening track, "The Association," references a relationship gone wrong, and "Model America" discusses the current scene in Washington, D.C.
Musically, it's another matter. Evan Kenney's and Jesse Vuona's dueling guitars cut in and out of the sonic maelstrom on "Fashion Fatale," my nomination for the hardest rocking love song of 2004, while bassist Michelle Kay Freivald and drummer Paul Koelle kick out the jams on the death-trap rattle of "Modern Phobias." Meanwhile, assorted voices and diverse rhythms add complexities throughout the album. Those searching for the future of rock should pause and listen: This quartet just might be it. Andria Lisle
Grade: A
Read Yellow perform with Your Enemies' Friends at the Caravan on Tuesday, July 27th.
You Are the Quarry
(Attack Records)
Despite the tommy gun he cradles on the cover and his recent Dixie Chicksstyle presidential smackdown, Morrissey sounds benign, harmless, and strangely avuncular on You Are the Quarry, like a paler version of his old self. He lives alone in the not-very-English city of Los Angeles, settled into a closed-off life that his Smiths songs always made seem inevitable.
The two lead tracks are called "America is Not the World" and "Irish Blood, English Heart," giving an idea of the bluntness of his attacks. Such large targets make for dull lyrics, lacking the Moz's famous wit: "The land of the free they said but where the President is never black, female, or gay." An interesting point to get hit over the head with.
Fortunately, Morrissey is just as self-absorbed as ever, and songs such as "How Could Anyone Possibly Know How I Feel?" stand out. On one of the album's better songs, "I'm Not Sorry," he looks back in, not anger exactly, but the gentle jadedness he's perfected over two decades.
His voice is still strong, effortlessly hitting the high notes on the choruses of "I Have Forgiven Jesus" and "Come Back to Camden." Unfortunately, the music that accompanies that voice is dry and unimaginative. Alternating between generic guitars and tired programmed beats. The music never overwhelms Morrissey's voice or words, but it never adds any drama or emphasis either. It's merely aural wallpaper.

Grade: C+
Kevin Montgomery
The son of two music-biz veterans (his pop, Bob Montgomery, worked with Buddy Holly, while his mom sang back-up for Elvis), Kevin Montgomery seemed a likely candidate for country stardom. His major-label debut (1993's Fear Nothing) failed to hit its mark, however, and he was banished to indie-label obscurity. Lesser men would've given up, but Montgomery took the setback in stride.
Accompanied by such veteran players as Robert Reynolds and Paul Deakin (both of the Mavericks) and vocalists Trisha Yearwood and Lee Ann Womack, the melodious Montgomery comes up aces on these 13 tracks. Songs run the gamut from Gram Parsons-esque country rock ("Tennessee Girl," and "Melrose") to above-standard singer-songwriter fare ("Red Blooded American Boy"). An organ keeps things interesting on "Thank You Very Much."
All in all, 2:30 AM is a perfect album for roots-music fans unfamiliar with Montgomery, although old fans might be slightly disappointed: A few of these tracks already have seen the light of day on earlier CDs such as Fear Everything, released in 2000, and Bootleg, a U.K.-only album, which came out in 2002.

Kevin Montgomery performs at the Hi-Tone Café on Wednesday, July 28th.

Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak has criticized his former company for going after a student who shared a developer release of Mac OS X Tiger, saying Apple is wasting time going after "small time wrongdoers." Mr. Wozniak promised to donate $1,000 to help in the students defense.
In an online posting to the blog site DrunkenBlog, Mr. Wozniak wrote that he believed Vivek Sambhara of Atlanta, Ga. was guilty of an honest mistake.
Mr. Wozniak wrote:
"...This is an unintentional oversight and the interviewed student appears to be one of the most honest people on this planet. I have to question who is most right in this case. I wish that Apple could find some way to drop the matter. In my opinion, more than appropriate punishment has already been dealt out. In this age of professional spammers and telemarketers making fortunes, weire misusing our energies to pursue these types of small time wrongdoers. I will personally donate $1,000 to the Canadian studentis defense."
Mr. Sambhara, along with David Schwartzstein of Norwalk, Conn. and Doug Steigerwald, of Raleigh, N.C. are being sued by Apple Computer for allegedly distributing "Tiger," the companyis next major Mac OS X release. Apple is seeking an injunction against the defendants, as well as unspecified damages.
The company alleges Mr. Steigerwald violated his membership agreement to the Apple Developer Connection (ADC), Appleis in-house developer network, by downloading and distributing the Tiger builds through BitTorrent, a popular peer-to-peer file-sharing network. Mr. Sambhara and Mr. Schwartzstein, also ADC members, allegedly redistributed the file to others via the Internet, first obtained by Mr. Steigerwald.
Details of the case were first reported by The Mac Observer on December 21, 2004.
Mr. Sambhara, in an online interview with DrunkenBlog in early January and identified as iDesicanuki, admitted distributing the Tiger build.
"Did I do exactly what Apple is accusing me of doing? I did share the file," he wrote. "So in that regard yes. But there was no malicious intent. Iive never done anything malicious in my life...I do think what I did was wrong and I understand why they are suing me."
An Apple spokesperson was not immediately available for reaction to Mr. Wozniakis comments.
Editoris Note: In an earlier version of this story, it was implied that Mr. Sambhara had contradicted himself in an admission that he had illegally shared Tiger via a peer-to-peer service. Mr. Sambhara did not, but rather said he had not shared previous versions of the Tiger developer build.

I agree. Although I was pleasantly surprised with her dress, I personally would never have worn such a dress. Love the Vera Wang!

I completely agree!! I have to admit there was a sense of disappointment when I first saw her dress...I was expecting something similar to her reception dress. Something a little more modern and youthful. But I cannot complain...she looked absolutely stunning!
Have a great weekend!

Well, Nuit, she had to wear something from a British designer...given that, I thought as you do that the dress lacked the drama one would have thought Westminster Abbey & a Royal Wedding needed. Maybe we walked down the aisle as a commoner (albeit with a diamond tiara on her head loaned by the Queen), perhaps she needed a simple statement for herself as she was not trying to out-do Princess Diana. Don't know. But I thought it was ho-hum. Love you!!

haha, I thought her dress is a bit grandma like, but she is quite beautiful, and she pulled it off well! can't blame her for picking it there was a bunch of guidelines for the dress like it has to have sleeves etc (sleeves alone would SUCK for my wedding dress haha)
- May 2, 2011 at 9:19 AM

i know!!! what's with all those guidelines right??? doesnt really leave much room for creativity there... I did like the way she looked though, she is so beautiful she'd look good in anything!....

you said it. what i loved was she could have been wearing a thrashbag and she STILL would have looked elegant. but yes something a tad bit more modern, even if it was in her bouquet, would have been nice. xo

But as Boris and Ken start to square up with their eccentricities ready for battle next year, what about the Liberal Democrats? They came 3rd in both the 2000 and 2004 elections, so you've got to ask if it's really worth it this time, for them. They did pick up 80,000 more votes the second time round, with Simon Hughes bagging about 25% of second preferences (not a bad showing at all) but it doesn't yet feel like a springboard to success in 2008.
This can't helped by the complete vacuum currently sat awkwardly in the place of any sign of a candidate. Several names have been brought up and linked to the 2008 contest, often quite suddenly - but just as swiftly those London leadership ambitions seem to have been extinguished. The latest is none other than Lembit Opik - an MP best known for his asteroid fixation and some naughty goings-on with a Cheeky Girl. Just one slight problem, as he himself says, with his constituency being 205 miles away.
So the party is back to trying to think of someone else - Lib Dem dithering can't be good news for their party's profile as Boris and Ken nab all the headlines.
Ken, Boris and Lembit would indeed be a fun competition in one sense. But in another way, the democratic choice would be a smorgasbord of middle-aged straight white maledom. With London allegedly the most diverse city on earth (which we think it is), can't we do better than that? Just a thought.

Hi, you may just be browsing, but we are available to answer your questions. A legal assistant or an attorney at our firm will help you right away.No thanks, do not show this again.
A common misconception of lawsuits is the expectation that the process itself will require a great deal of your time and energy. In reality, with the right attorney, this shouldn't be the case.
At John M. O'Brien & Associates we value the opportunity to practice personal injury law because it allows us to help people when they are most in need. We make it our duty to ensure our clients can focus on healing and not the steps in-between. For example, if a client is incapacitated and cannot come to us; we go to them. From the beginning we keep our clients informed as to what their recovery process entails and, if needed, we offer help in securing the best medical care possible. To the relief of many of our clients, after becoming their advocate we immediately inform the insurance companies to direct all their inquiries to our office, thus relieving our clients of the anxiety attached to dealing with the insurance adjusters on their own.
As a firm, we pride ourselves in giving each of our clients the care and guidance needed to help them through such a traumatizing experience in their life.
If you have been injured in an accident that was caused by someone else's negligence, likely the negligent party will have an insurance policy to compensate you for your damages. This means, however, that you will need to communicate with a representative from the insurance company, known as an insurance adjuster, in order to recover your losses.
If you have been seriously injured then we strongly recommend that you have an attorney be your advocate. Why?
Here are three ways that we, at John M. O'Brien & Associates, can help you fight the insurance company to achieve the best possible outcome in your case:
1) We Protect You from the Insurance Company's Tactics
Despite insurance existing as a means of protection, insurance adjusters will always look after the interest of their company first and foremost. Some of the tactics they use include:
Consulting with an experienced attorney from the start, equips you to better understand what you legal rights are and what can be done to protect these.
2) We Help Prove Liability
We are prepared to, if needed, defend you against an adjuster who tries to blame you for the incident. We do this by making use of police reports, witness testimony, photographs, videos, and accident reconstruction specialists. In addition, we have the resources to send our own investigators to the scene of the accident in order to seek clarity of the incident and help prove our client's innocence. Without an attorney, you may not have access to the resources needed to prove liability in your case.
3) We Fight to Prove the Value of Your Claim
Paying any claim is a financial loss to an insurance company, thus an adjuster will use every excuse in the book to drop the value of a claim. This may include arguing that the proposed compensation needed for anticipated future medical expenses. An adjuster could attempt to challenge the length of treatment received or surmise that the damages an injured party suffered is linked to another incident unrelated to the accident. An experienced personal injury attorney has the legal knowledge to effectively combat these types of challenges that arise.
John M. O'Brien & Associates was formed with one thought in mind: justice for injured victims. Our record over the past eighteen years proves how successful we have been in achieving that goal. It remains our singular mission even today.
We handle a wide variety of Sacramento and Elk Grove personal injury cases, ranging from automobile and construction site accidents to product liability and wrongful death actions. We have the experience, expertise, and resources to take on any defendant, large or small, to ensure justice for our clients.
According to the Webster Dictionary, an "accident" can be described as an unfortunate incident that happens unintentionally, typically resulting in damage or injury. This explains why accidents tend to occur when people least expect it and when they feel entirely unprepared.
If significantly injured, most people cannot afford to pay thousands of dollars in unexpected medical expenses. An injury can cause a person to miss several days of work or they may never recover to the point that allows them to return to their former employment. When faced with such obstacles a person could feel overwhelmed with obtaining a personal injury lawyer. Yet, failing to hire an attorney could result in a low-ball settlement offer from the at-fault party's insurance company; an offer that may fail to justly compensate you for your damages.
At John M. O'Brien & Associates you won't be expected to pay us any legal fees unless we are able to secure a favorable verdict or settlement on your behalf. In our 25 years' experience, the focus has always been and will remain, on satisfying our clients' needs and goals.
Finding the right personal injury lawyer for you can feel like a difficult journey. Perhaps you've noticed that there are many accident lawyers advertising in your area and almost all charge the same fees. Is there really a difference?
Differences can be seen if you take time to review their credentials. Few personal injury lawyers have the proven record and finances necessary to obtain top results consistently. Prosecuting a significant personal injury case often requires tens of thousands of dollars to hire experts and pay for litigation and trial costs. Our law firm has the financial means to prosecute cases without cutting corners. When we make a commitment to represent you we also commit to investing the financial resources that are necessary to optimize getting you the best results.
Aside from experienced trial counsel, our staff is also highly qualified. Our paralegals and legal assistants have over 50 years of combined experience between them in the Sacramento legal community. They are always willing and eager to assist our Sacramento & Elk Grove-based firm's clients with their questions or concerns.

Diving into Dream Drop Distance
So lately, I've been playing a lot of Kingdom Hearts: Dream Drop Distance HD as part of the 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue collection (And that's a mouthful.) I tried to play it before on the 3DS but something about the strange and unfamiliar mechanics (I had never played Birth By Sleep when I tried it so the Command Board was weird, plus the Dream Eaters) and the smaller screen between the controls seem to just give me an all around hard time getting into the game. So I figured that now I've solved some of those issues I could try it again on my TV. Turns out, it works a lot better.
Learning the Game
I figured since Dream Drop Distance introduces a bunch of weird mechanics that I'd share some tips that I've kind of figured out over the course of playing to make it easier. The first of which would have to be the return of the Command Board. A familiar installment to those who played through Birth by Sleep on the PSP or as part of the II.5 collection, the Command Board is pretty much all of your special attacks and moves be they special keyblade attacks or spells. They each have a separate cooldown that is affected by your Attack or Magic Haste stat. You start with a few slots but the list will expand as you continue through the game. The command board is your bread & butter in combat. I generally only do normal attacks once I've put most of my attack commands on cooldown to fill the gap. They do WAY more damage and have more Area damage options that your normal attacks. Don't be afraid to experiment and find what attacks work better for your playstyle. I tend to favor the "dive" attacks because they do area damage which is good for clearing out clusters of enemies which is very helpful when grinding.
The second big mechanic to keep in mind is the Dream Eaters. Much like Pokemon Amie meets Nintendogs, you create these little spirits and can groom and pet them to your hearts content. But why you would want to do so was confusing to me for a long time. See, these little guys are more important than just being your fill in party members since Donald & Goofy are off doing their own thing during the adventure. These little guys also give you your abilities. Abilities being things like 'Attack Haste' or 'Second Chance' or 'Magic Boost'. How you get these is from a Dream Eaters' ability link grid. You spend Link Points to unlock nodes on the grid that grant Abilities or Commands. And you get Link Points from leveling your Dream Eaters in combat, playing minigames or yes, petting them. Petting them is especially important because petting or poking them in certain places can change their 'Disposition' (aka what attacks they use in combat) and a new disposition can unlock extra paths on the Link Grid (It's the only way to 100% their grids.)
The other thing about Dream Eater abilities is which are permanent and which only apply when the Dream Eater is in your party. Essentially 'Stat Abilities' (The blue ones on the ability screen, or the ones with the dream eater logo on the grid) only apply when that Dream Eater is in your party. The 'Support Abilities' (Red abilities or Red Orbs on grid), 'Spirit Abilities' (Purple Abilities or Purple Orbs on Grid) and any commands (Wizard Hat & Key icons) you got are permanently unlocked for both Sora and Riku.
Flowmotion is the final mechanic and I don't think I can really do it justice in text. It essentially allows you to jump massive distances, up walls, and perform new attacks. It takes get some used to but once you get the hang of it, you'll be able to reach new areas, treasure chests, and skip a bunch of tedious jumping. Don't worry if you can't get the hang of it though. I've yet to encounter anything that you can't get through normal jumping (or high jumping.) There's even some stuff like a friendly animal that you can ride on to reach areas in some worlds. So you don't NEED flowmotion, but it can make things easier/quicker.
The Pieces Fall Together
The other thing I'm really enjoying about Dream Drop Distance is that it is taking the time to finally start piecing the story together from all the various spin offs that the series has had since KH2 came out in preparation of well, the final chapter. Tying in titles like 358/2 Days, Birth By Sleep and Re:Coded to the current going ons with Riku & Sora really helps to make the picture complete and help you to figure out how all of this fits together into a single story. If you haven't played one of the games, or you can't remember, you'll eventually unlock "Chronicles" which are text summaries of the events of each of the games.
However, the story isn't flawless. Mostly when it comes down to the individual worlds. Of the first three 'movie inspired' worlds you go to – La Cites des Cloches (Hunchback of Notre Dame), The Grid (Tron: Legacy) and Prankster's Paradise (Pinnochio) – two of them don't put a lot of effort to weave Sora or Riku into the narrative of the ongoing plot like many of the other games did. In fact, in the Grid it feels like our heroes aren't even there half the time as the game just reenacts random scenes from the movies without context as Sora & Riku stand in the background. Oh there's scenes that advance Sora & Riku's story as well, but they have little to nothing to do with the events of the world's story. Usually it involves Young Xehanort showing up with one of his many incarnations to taunt or mysteriously hint at things at our heroes before departing back to parts unknown. I'm not going to say it's a game breaker, but damn if it doesn't just let the air out of any enthusiasm of going to the various worlds.
On that note, I'm not sure Square Enix quite understood the plot of the Hunchback of Notre Dame. Because the random aspects they chose to focus on – and they are random. Like the one scene with Pheobus & Esmerelda's spontaneous romance with zero development that only makes sense if you've seen the movie – seems to imply that the writers were unsure of what the story was about. Is it about Frollo hating "G–sies" for being 'Free'? Or Quasimodo overcoming his crippling fear of going outside not because of his visage but just because Frolo told him not to. Heck, they have one scene about Frolo looking for the Court of Miracles that explicitly conveys the opposite intention of the original film (He WANTS to crush them 'one by one' instead of crushing them all). It was just a weird world over all and nothing was given context. It was like reading a cliff notes version of the Disney movie with half the pages missing. Just weird.
Should You Get It?
If you're a Kingdom Hearts fan and plan on playing the whenever-it-gets-done KH3? Definitely. Unless you already played it on the 3DS, because this version doesn't add anything. It removes some non-essential stuff like AR Codes and Photo Taking of the Dream Eaters (there IS a photo mode but it just removes the UI for screen shotting) but this isn't a "Final Mix" incarnation, just a HD remaster of the graphics and ported to a console. The follow up in the 2.8 collection, 'Birth By Sleep 0.2 -A Fragmentary Passage-', also picks up literally right at the end of Dream Drop Distance's Secret Ending, which might be spoilery if you haven't played Dream Drop yet.
Making Sense of the Kingdom Hearts Timeline
I LOVE Kingdom Hearts. Love it to pieces. Ever since I picked up the first one way back in college, I've done my best to try and play every single one. But that's not easy with the insane cross platform releases. Some on the Game Boy, some on the PSP, and hey what about the one that was only available on Japanese mobile phones? That's got to be an easy one to nab right? (Well, actually yea.) But even if you got them all, what order do all these go in? It's clear they're not chronological right? Well, with the announcement of Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue (A weird and long title that is at least more descriptive than Ground Zeroes) set to be released on the Playstation 4 sometime in 2016, I figured I'd do a quick little handy right up for folks like me who are trying to figure out what order all these things come in.
0: Kingdom Hearts χ & Back Cover – Set before the events of the Keyblade War, the Chi games tell the story of the events that lead up to the War and the beginnings of the struggle between Light and Dark.
0.1: Birth by Sleep – Surrounding the adventures of three Keyblade Knights, the generation of wielders before Sora. Their adventures set the stage for the main games and explain the backstory for several series main characters & villains.
0.2: Birth by Sleep: A Fragmentary Passage – A short episode that takes places immediately following the events of the Birth By Sleep Secret Ending. Told through the framing device of Mickey telling the tale post-Dream Drop Distance.
1: Kingdom Hearts – The first game in the main 'numbered' series. The story of Sora, Donald, and Goofy trying to defeat the Heartless and find their friends.
1.5 – Chain of Memories & 358/2 Days – These two are occurring roughly simultaneously as the events of Chain of Memories are referenced as happening at the moment in 358/2 Days. Chain of Memories follows Sora & Riku and sets up the situation for Kingdom Hearts II, while 358/2 Days does the same but for the villains of that story: Organization XIII.
2: Kingdom Hearts II – Sora's second grand adventure introduces us properly to the concept of the Nobodies and the battle against Organization XIII.
2.25: Re:Coded – Explores and is connected to several of the concepts from throughout the series: The fates of the characters from Birth By Sleep and their relationship to Sora, the Book of Prophecies from Chi, and sets up the beginning of Sora and Riku's journey to become Keyblade Masters. It's recommended to view the KH2.5 HD ReMix version of Re:Coded as it includes several important story scenes that are only available in this version.
2.5: Dream Drop Distance – Details the trials of Sora and Riku trying to earn their Master's Marks to become Keyblade Masters, and dives more into Ansem's plans and the true purpose of the Organization.
3: Kingdom Hearts III – Set to be released some day, this has been quoted by Nomura as the final chapter of Sora's story in the Kingdom Hearts universe.
Now I'm just going to say that playing all of these games in chronological order may not be the best idea for new comers to the series. There's a lot of these titles that will reference concepts or characters introduced in other games that technically take place later in the series. For example, Birth By Sleep was originally released after Kingdom Hearts II. So it is written and presented in a way that assumes some level of familiarity with Kingdoms Hearts 1, 2, Chain of Memories and 358/2 Days. However for those who are familiar with the series and want to see how the story unfolds in order, or don't mind being confused for a couple of games as things start to snap together, this should prove to be about as interesting as coming to the Star Wars Saga fresh and watching them in order. In short: enlightening if nothing else.
Unfortunately such a grand experiment will have to wait until Kingdom Hearts 2.8 Final Chapter Prologue comes out next year. Hopefully it will be released with enough time between it and Kingdom Hearts III that we can play all 9 other installments in order before then.

Why is it that we get dressed for strangers, but don't get dressed for ourselves?
I've been in Hollywood for the past two days, and in a flurry of pre-trip excitement, spent some of our tax refund on new clothes, new make-up, and proper hair care products. And for the past two days I have been showered, well-coiffed, and nicely dressed. All for people I don't know and may never see again.
But left to my own devices, at home, with only my 5yo for a fashion critique? I often look like a surprisingly well-fed hobo.
I've thought about this a lot over the years, and even written about it here. I wish I could be more disciplined about getting myself presentable every day, even if I have no one to present myself to. Because how I look affects how I feel, and I should be a good enough reason to get myself dressed in the morning.
Don't get me wrong, there are a lot of great reasons to wear sweats all day.
- They are comfortable.
- I don't care about them getting dirty in the process of doing housework.
- They are comfortable.
But since I often stay on the path I set out on, I find that if I don't get dressed in the morning, I'm about 1,000 times less likely to ever go out that day. Which means I skip errands or miss opportunities or end up getting stuck on the unhealthy hamster wheel of obsession with household minutia.
I've seen this humorous image floating around Pinterest lately, so I know I'm not alone in this:
And I know this probably isn't the same issue for women who work outside of the home. But I'm curious: Are you good about getting yourself up and ready for the day, even when you have nowhere to go?

and scottstravelblog.wordpress.com, and on his website, http://www.writtenwords.ca.
Follow him on Twitter @ScottTheWriter.
What is the main premise of this book?
The Dark Age, eastern Europe: the earth has decided to rid itself of humanity with earthquakes, volcanoes and new plagues. Civilizations, even the mighty Roman Empire, crumble under the pressure of barbarian waves that are fleeing worse terrors.
Rejected by his own people, pursued by a dragon, young Javor heads for Constantinople, the centre of civilization, looking for answers to the puzzle of his great-grandfather's dagger and the murder of his family.
On the ancient, crumbling Roman highway across haunted, deserted Dacia, Javor rescues the beautiful Danisa from a human sacrifice. He cannot help falling in love with her. But Danisa has her own plans, and when she is kidnapped again, Javor has to wonder: what is the connection between his dagger, his lover and his enemies?
How long did it take you to write it?
From conception to completion, probably about 9 years, but there were long hiatuses (haiti?) in there.
Who's your favorite character in it?
Who's your favorite character in it?
Javor, the MC, of course; but beside him, I like Vorona, the village shaman, who is a character I will reuse in other, unrelated books.
When reading, do you prefer eBook or paperback?
When reading, do you prefer eBook or paperback?
I find ebooks easier to read. When I read on my iPad, I don't need glasses and I don't have to worry about there being enough light on the bus. However, I loathe to bring my iPad to the beach. With a paperback, I don't worry about getting sand into it.
What projects are you currently working on?
There are a couple of writing challenges and so on that I'm contributing to, including Lyn Midnight's Grim 5, an anthology of stories about the end of the word. My next WIP is a novelized memoir of my father-in-law's escape from a German POW camp in Ukraine during the second world war. Following that, I want to finish a story for children aged 6 to 12, called The Last Tiger, about the last free Siberian tiger.
What is something that surprised you about being an author?
How I have more ideas than time to write them.
Who designed this cover?
Lisa Damerst, also known as Lisa Street, a talented graphic designer and author from Florida.
Do you ever write in your PJ's?
Never wear them, so no.
What are your pet peeves?
The way Microsoft Word randomly changes my formatting.
What's your favorite beverage?
So do you like to cook?
Occasionally. I prefer to cook in the same way that I write: I want to get all the ingredients and implements I need together, organized, and I like to do it myself, without help.
Do you normally eat for breakfast, of do you skip it and get straight to work?
I usually eat cereal and coffee, in front of my computer, answering emails and setting up tweets.
What is something you never leave home without (apart from keys, money and phone)?
What is something you never leave home without (apart from keys, money and phone)?
Travel coffee mug.
Do you sleep in or get up early?
Get up early.
Which do you use most for writing on, laptop or desktop?
I prefer the desktop, but the iPad with the bluetooth keyboard-case is mobile. I have been experimenting using it for mobile blogging, with mixed results.
Where and when do you prefer to do your writing?
I prefer to do my writing on my desktop computer in my office, after I've tidied it up. Doesn't happen very often, though. Still, a wide, clean desktop, my notes on one side, cup of coffee on the other, music playing and words flowing through my fingertips to the screen—that's ideal.
What are your thoughts on receiving book reviews - the good and the bad?
Any review is better than no review. The best are those by reviewer that actually get it—like Elie Stokes, who figured out the MC's disability, or others who noted the historical research that went into the book. To tell the truth, the only bad reviews I have received are from an author whose book I did not review well. All the other reviews have been very positive, for which I am very grateful.
Where can readers find this book?

I've known my man Smokey for about 15 years. I recently saw him coming across my yard on this little jammer. Asked him what he was up to. He said he was going on a beer run, asked me if I needed anything, nodded, and took off back out across the yard like he was in a moto race that no one knew about but him. A couple of minutes later I could still hear this bike screaming down the road. He recently got pulled over for doing over 80 on it while not having a single legal scrap of paper or tin on the bike. They somehow let him go. Hes the guy who sometimes steps in shit but always seems to come out smelling like roses. He was actually held in a foreign brig on suspicion of piracy for reasons unknown. They let him go on that one too but he wasn't allowed back in the country. Hes always turning wrenches on something interesting and is now parting with his bar hopper. Such adventures can also be yours for a price.

Sunnyside had more base hits but couldn't translate that on the scoreboard in a 6-2 loss yesterday, Thursday, to 1A Naches.
The 3A Grizzlies collected eight hits to just five for the visiting Rangers, but it was Naches with the win.
"We need to basically be able to handle the pressure of putting the ball in play," Coach Terry Shines said of the Grizzlies' tendency to leave runners on base.
After Naches nicked Sunnyside starter Joel Ortega for three runs in the first two innings, the Grizzlies made it a 3-1 game in the home-half of the third frame. The run scored when Miguel Mendez, Tim Martinez and Trey Serl smacked back-to-back-to-back base hits.
Things stayed close until the top of the sixth, when Naches pushed across three unearned runs to basically put the game away. The Rangers benefitted from a pair of walks issued by Sunnyside pitching, then a pair of Grizzly fielding errors.
Sunnyside tried to answer in the bottom of the sixth, but a single run brought home on a fielder's choice was too little, too late.
Sunnyside (2-6) was paced at the plate yesterday by Mendez with two hits, along with Serl and Sam Romero, who each slapped a double for the Grizzly nine.
Ortega, who left the mound in the fifth inning, and the reliever Romero combined to strike out four Ranger batters in seven innings of work.
The Grizzlies now enjoy a week away from competition during spring break.
Shines says his club will make use of the extra time to hone its skills.
"We'll be working on situational hitting and our assignments on defense, like handling bunt coverage," Shines said.

I am so excited about our February collaboration on things of style and beauty!!
Please meet my very lovely friend, Jennifer, from THE PINK PAGODA. Jennifer and I met over a year ago and became fast friends but in yet another small world story… it turns out that we have many, many mutual friends and we cross paths in so ways besides just blogging. I just adore her.
Jennifer's blog was one of the very first blogs I started reading… and I think she may be the only person who loves blue and white more than I do! In addition to blogging, she has a shop that sells the most fabulous blue and white accessories and Chinoiserie prints for the home. In fact, one of my favorite ginger jars is from her collection.
She has fantastic taste so I thought it would be fun to take a peak into her style today.

|A quick dessert for this evening!
|I had a package of the mini-chips......decided to cap them off with chocolate.
|A quick dessert for this evening!
|I had a package of the mini-chips......decided to cap them off with chocolate.
|Adding a touch of fresh whipping cream and mint from the mint pot outside! Never stick mint in the ground....it takes off and keeps growing everywhere!
This is such a simple and delicious recipe! It is so light!
2 cups of ricotta cheese
3/4 C. of powdered sugar
1 t. of cinnamon
1/4 c. of whipping cream
1/4 c. of mini-chocolate chips
zest of 1 lemon, lightly scraped
1t. vanilla
Combine the cheese, sugar and cinnamon. Add the vanilla. Mix well, add vanilla and zest of lemon. Sprinkle in the chocolate chips. Gently combine.
In a separate bowl, beat the whipping cream until it hold soft peaks. It's not very much to beat, so it doesn't take long. Scrape and gently fold the whipping cream into cheese mixture. Pipe the cheese mixture into the tubes, which I purchased from the grocery store. Sprinkle additional chips on both ends of cannoli. Chill for three hours. I can only imagine how freshly made ones would have tasted. I will try that next time,when I have more time and have the molds!
Outrageously simple and beautiful ... I think this should be on a table for company soon!
What a beautiful dessert. We are off on our motorcycle tour of France next week. Hopefully I will be able to post some pictures and narrative of our trip.
I love cannoli it is the perfect dessert, in my opinion, because it is a pastry which has small enough portions to serve a family or an entire party. Thank you for including the recipe, it has room for tinkering but I am sure that the original is great as well. Molds are a very good idea.

Zombieland and realized that if a zombie virus ever takes over America, I would really like to stay human. I have gained a new appreciation for fitness - I really want to be able to run away from a pack of zombies if needed. The yoga that I practice and the walks that I go one will be really helpful if I ever need to fight off a zombie. I need to start doing cardio as well and maybe some kickboxing. I wonder if Darwin ever considered zombies to be a part of his theory of survival of the fittest. It definitely has become a part of mine.
Why is it so difficult to do what we know is good for us? I've got the eating healthy part down. It is the exercise routine that I haven't quite embraced that keeps taunting me, though. The opposite applies as well. We allow so many bad things to be a part of our lives - becoming overwhelmed and stressed, worrying about money, fearing death, forgetting the simple things, letting negativity creep its way into our lives. It seems strange that it is easier to feel guilt and regret than it is to workout. What really matters anyway? Isn't life is about living? In the end, worry and guilt will get us no where. I'd rather spend my time living a positive and healthy life. Ultimately, that is what will keep me alive if a zombie virus becomes epidemic.

Hughes wins by stoppage in the 1st round. Teabag wins. It was not even close. This just goes to show that the UFC old guard can't hang with the new breed of MMA fighter. The new guys have seen it all, are more well-rounded, and Brazilian Ju-Jitsu is not the mystery it once was back in the early 90's.
Still Royce was great in his time! One of my favorites!
Teabag gets a breakfast.
Next up is Shamrock versus Ortiz, the rematch. Maybe we'll get a bet on that one!

What You Should Do In A Plumbing Situation
Knowing where to start can be confusing when you are first beginning to plumb. There are many things to take into consideration, and knowing which tools and instructions and equipment to use is important. This article can show you what is needed to get the job done and how to do it properly.
Pump your septic tank about once every five years, to make sure it is working well. Having your septic pumped will keep sediments from settling to the bottom of the septic tank and causing the tank to malfunction or backup. It may be a bit expensive to pump a septic tank, but it will be very expensive to clean up an emergency sewage problem.
If your toilet gets clogged, your plunger is not fixing it, and your water level inside of the toilet appears low, you can sometimes fix the problem by dumping warm water into your toilet at waist level (or maybe even a little higher). You could repeat this process again if the water in the toilet bowl gets low.
You can check for damage to the floors around the toilets by checking for soft areas. Straddle the toilet and rock from one foot to the other to see if you feel any weakening or "softness" in the floor beneath you. Picking up on any problems now will definitely work to save you money later. It's the difference in a little maintenance and total floor replacement.
You now know that while plumbing may seem intimidating, it is really not that complicated. It's just that there are quite a few basics to learn. In order to start, you just have to know how to properly research, how to work hard, and how to use your common sense in order to discover the best methods for the job.

Lissa Dragomir is a Moroi princess: a mortal vampire with an unbreakable bond to the earth's magic. She must be protected at all times from Strigoi; the fiercest and most dangerous vampires--the ones who never die.
The powerful blend of human and vampire blood that flows through Rose Hathaway, Lissa's best friend, makes her a Dhampir; she is dedicated to a dangerous life of protecting Lissa from the Strigoi, who are hell-bent on making her one of them.
After two years of illicit freedom, Rose and Lissa are caught and dragged back to St. Vladimir's Academy, hidden in the deep forests of Montana. Rose will continue her Dhampir education. Lissa will go back to being Queen of the elite Moroi social scene. And both girls will resume breaking hearts.
Fear made Lissa and Rose run away from St. Vladimir's--but their world is fraught with danger both inside and out of the Academy's iron gates. Here, the cutthroat ranks of the Moroi perform unspeakable rituals and their secretive nature and love of the night creates an enigmatic world full of social complexities. Rose and Lissa must navigate through this dangerous world, confront the temptation of forbidden romance, and never once let their guard down, lest the Strigoi make Lissa one of them forever...
I had heard many good things about the Vampire Academy but I didn't really believe how good it was until I read it. Richelle Mead wrote an award winning series of vampire books full of romance, adventures and heartbreak. Rose is one of the strongest female characters out there, her courage and determination makes you admire and love her. This series is another love triangle and normally I strongly dislike books with love triangles but I can honestly say that I enjoyed this love triangle and that it is one of the best out there.
Dimitri is a Dhampir and becomes Rose's teacher at the academy. I loved him from the beginning, his cool exterior and firm but kind teachings warmed my heart. He is no doubt one of my favourite male characters ever. However then there is Adrian, he doesn't arrive until the second book but he is a classic 'bad boy', when you first meet him, he isn't someone that like-able, but slowly he worms his way into your heart and keeps you interested in him.
vampire universe.
I enjoyed reading all six books and flew through them in my haste to see how it ended. I ended up going back and reading them again to make sure I didn't miss anything and enjoy it again. This series is definitely one of my favourite series out there and definitely makes my top 5. I absolutely recommend this to all paranormal lovers and those who love strong female heroines.
Average Rating for Whole Series: 5 out of 5 stars

It is that time of year again at our house.
Birthday time!!
February is the first month of the year that has a birthday at our house.
Little Dude is turning 9 and when the time came for him to look through my cake books and choose a cake he went for it and picked a robot cake!
This book is awesome!
There are so many ideas and shortcuts to awesome cakes.
The first thing I had to do was go out searching for all the candy needed for this guy.
I don't live in a huge town so I had to make some substitutes for the candy I couldn't find. For example BottleCaps for Razzles and Mini M&Ms for the Jujubees.
That OK.
If I didn't tell... no one would know!
I followed the directions in the book except I made my cake instead of buying store bought pound cakes.
Crumb layer
We chose green instead of blue. (I am of the opinion that blue is not a food color. Just a pet peeve!)
Once it was frosted it was time for assembly.
Head, arms, ears, neck.
The all important lollypops added.
Frosting dots. I didn't like the little points that the frosting tip left so how to fix that?
Yeah, Yeah, he is legless!
I did it on purpose, I swear.
There are 6 people in our family. This year we are not having company over for cake so I left the legs off because really...
isn't this enough cake already?
I didn't want to be too wasteful!
Look at the kid!
He doesn't care that his robot has no legs.
He is happy as a kid can be!
