text: Bob, 52, is self employed, married with one child, living in Vermont, and has never had dental insurance. He doesn't think it's worth the investment: "It never seems to really cover the bills…I just pay as I go." Bob sees his dentist regularly, twice a year. At his last visit he had a crown put on one of his teeth, and the dentist noticed another tooth with a crack. The dentist suggested Bob get another crown before the tooth shatters in some unexpected place where he won't be able to get immediate dental help. "I can't afford to put a crown in so I'm waiting until the tooth self-destructs," Bob explains. He considers the procedure to be somewhat elective, but at the same time,"kind of a time bomb," and says, "It's hard to come up with 1,200 bucks to get the crown done. It's just one of those things-there's just always something else to spend the money on."

Take the Super Bowl ads. We talk about them before they're even on TV. How many can you remember now? My guess is you'll recall those that were of 'interest' to you. You listened to them. We all 'heard' them. We watched them. But again, how many did we really listen to?
Ok, heads up. Here are six easy steps to becoming a better listener. There are more, for sure, but starting with these will help you a lot.
1. Decide to be a better listener. That's like an attitude. You can really decide to be a good listener. It's a decision. Will everything be of interest or value to you? Maybe not, but not listening might be dangerous. So make a mental decision to listen better to those you talk with, especially if you have asked them a question and they answer. You need to LISTEN to them.
2. Welcome the customer on the phone or in person; in business or at a social event. We need to make the person feel welcomed. That in turn helps make you a much better listener. Be obviously friendly when you're talking with a customer. And it's got to be sincere. Most folks can tell when you're not. So bring a welcoming phrase to the table and use it to make the customer feel as though he's a long lost friend!
3. Concentrate. This is not the time for multi-tasking. And today, we can all turn to the left or right and catch someone texting and probably having an in-person conversation as well. One of these things will be in trouble. We simply cannot do two things well at once. Your concentration must be on the customer, again, in person or on the phone. Do nothing else but 'listen.'
4. Keep an open mind. Why do we need to do this? I'll tell you why. There are some of us who think we know what the other person is going to say before they say it and so we interrupt or interject our comments before the customer can answer. That's not keeping an open mind. That's interrupting. Some of the time we're right and we do know what the person will say. But it's important to put your teeth in your tongue and not interrupt. By keeping an open mind you'll gain more information as well.
5. Give verbal feedback. Talking with someone and not acknowledging what they're talking about is very frustrating for them; especially on the phone, because we don't even have body language to check out. So a few "I see," "That's good," "OK," "Interesting," and a few words and phrases like that help the person feel as though you're listening and listening well. In person, you have the ability to nod and smile and they can SEE your expressions. However, on the phone, we need verbal feedback. And be careful we're not saying the same word over and over. Like OK, OK, OK, OK. That's boring to both of you.
6. Take notes as you talk. And yes, even in person. That's perfectly acceptable! Taking notes and letting the person know you are doing it is a sign of great interest. I do it all the time when I'm on the phone. I tell the client, "I'm taking notes so we can refer to them later and so I don't forget what you're saying." No one has ever said, "Don't do that." Most say, "Good, that's super!" Taking notes so you can refer back is a big compliment. Don't forget to do it.

Here at Blue Centerlight Pop, Sarah and Erin bring you reviews on movies, books and anything else we deem worthy. We're both quite the avid readers, so read the reviews and see what's worth your attention.
If You Follow Me, Would You Go?
Marina is adrift in her life. She runs from the numbness of her father's suicide to Japan. She is in Shika, Japan for one year to be an English teacher. She thought she could escape her past, but in Japan her past found her.
How Jane Austen Ruined my Life
While browsing through rows of books, I happened upon one called "Jane Austen Ruined my Life" by Beth Pattillo. That sounded like an interesting title and on the cover is a woman dressed in red, holding a letter and looking either utterly distressed or constipated. After reading the description on the back, I knew I had to read it.
That bizarre kid called 'Keith'
The plot is easy. Popular girl who has everything (looks, sports, grades, boys) gets chosen by this boy to be his lab partner. The teacher says everyone was randomly placed together, but they weren't. It was all Keith's doing.
'Invictus', Rugby and Learning to be the Captain of your Soul
The opening scene is enough to replicate the social ambiance of the time period to the audience. There is a group of young black boys playing soccer on a field with a high, dilapidated metal fence and children wearing what could be called clothes, though their "clothes" are rags. On the other side of the road, a group of Caucasian boys play rugby on an emerald green lawn in sparkling white uniforms. Their coach remarks on Mandela's release as, "Boys, remember this is the day our country went to hell."
On the other hand, the general consensus is that Mandela is there to unite the bitterly divided country during his first term in office. On one side, there are the black compatriots who have been oppressed and disenfranchised. On the other, there are white Afrikaner nationalists who want to keep hold of system that repressed their fellow countrymen. He attempts to amalgamate South Africa upon the split of social values and issues of human injustice by transforming the horrid Springboks rugby team into national heroes.

The story begins with Carl(Tom Sturridge) arriving on the Radio Rock ship because he had been expelled from his school for smoking cigarettes and marijuana. He claims his mother sent him there to try a different way of life with his Uncle Quentin(Bill Nighy). He meets a ragtag crew who DJs twenty-four hours a day from the ship, including the ship's cook, Felicity(Katherine Parkinson), who plays a lesbian. Carl bunks with a man called Kevin, who is nicknamed Thick Kevin(Tom Brooke) because he doesn't process information that quickly (Kevin wore an Easter bunny costume to Christmas dinner). This is a coming of age story for Carl who learns about rock 'n roll and loses his virginity(while it was being broadcast live). More
'Precious', a Harlem Gothic Story
The film follows the journey of Claireece "Precious" Jones(Gabourey Sidibe), an overweight sixteen-year-old African-American living in Harlem in 1987. She lives in a life no one would desire. She's pregnant with the second time by her absentee father. Her home life is very turbulent because she has to wait on her mother(Mo'Nique) who smokes like a chimney and watches television all day. Precious is abused emotionally and physically by her mother, who at one point makes Precious eat macaroni and fried pig's feet because she is unsatisfied with the meal. More
Diet's story is true. She had to keep a secret. Several secrets, actually. People depended upon her to keep her silence so that they could live.
It's all about the Girl and her Ramen obsession
The Ramen Girl" is about, Abby, a spoiled American who rushes to live in Tokyo with her boyfriend. He leaves her alone in Tokyo because he's a "traveller and he's not feeling the relationship."

New York, I love you… but you're way too complex!
"New York, I Love You" explores the major complicated theme that is love. The film is described on the official website as: "love in all its varieties, from first love, tough love and momentary love, to love remembered, love denied, love yearned for and love that lasts forever."Love is a tricky, sticky emotion that makes people act like fools and drives us all crazy… More
Meet Emma Woodhouse. Jane Austen wrote the first sentence describing Emma in a way every one could be envious: "I am going to take a heroine whom no-one but myself will much like. Emma Woodhouse, handsome, clever and rich." Envious of Emma? I am!.. More
Director R.J. Cutler brings to the screen the hectic, dramatic and often heart breaking process of the creation of the famous September issue of Voguemagazine. "The September Issue" follows the chilly Anna Wintour and flamed-haired Grace Coddington, the Creative Director of American Vogue, through the streets of London, New York and Paris in the development of the magazine… More

While gallivanting in Europe, Gwen meets Daniel Deronda, an English gentleman who is the ugly duckling, so to speak, of his family. He never quite fits in with the rest and is not sure why. He's studying classics at Cambridge when he decides to go on a rendezvous to find himself. He meets Gwen while she is gambling away everything she has. She loses it all and must return to England, but before she can do that, Deronda does Gwen a great favor which causes romantic tension between the two and ties them together like a spider's web… More
Yesterday I was in the mood to watch a period piece because I'm a dork like that. I wanted to watch something taking place in the 1800s and that was different from the average Jane Austen-ish drama. After doing research via IMDB and Netflix, I decided to watch the BBC mini series "He Knew He Was Right." It's an adaptation of Anthony Trollope's novel. Here's the synopsis of the series from BBC Drama:
Louis (Oliver Dimsdale) and his wife, Emily Trevelyan (Laura Fraser), are madly in love. Emily's a strong woman seeking to make her own decisions, but Louis is a fragile man who can't stand up to her. Through mistrust and lack of communication they head inexorably for disaster. Notorious womaniser Colonel Osborne (Bill Nighy) drives a wedge between the two by visiting Emily too frequently and causing gossip. The confrontation between Louis and his beloved wife over her liaisons with Colonel Osborne drives Louis into a vortex of misery and, ultimately, madness… More
Angela's Ashes by Frank McCourt
Angela's Ashes was first printed in 1996 and received the Pulitzer Prize in 1997. The book is an autobiographical account of Frank (Francis) McCourt's days growing up in New York City and Limerick, Ireland. He had a large family that struggled for every bit of money they had… More
Sarah's Key by Tatiana De Rosnay
I will confess that the first time I picked up this book, I did not want to read it. My name is Sarah, I have a little brother, and I'm jewish. I was afraid it would hit a little too close to home, but I am so glad I ended up reading it. When I did read it on a recommendation from my Mother, I found out I had more to relate to the book than I had imagined. I'm a journalism student with an itch to travel and live abroad, and one of the main characters is an American journalist… More
The Six Wives of Henry VIII by Alison Weir
There is something ever so fascinating about Henry VIII's life and all of his wives. Each one was very different and he always desired a new characteristic after being done with one wife, such as a more virtuous woman. After reading this novel, my mom thrust the book in my hands and said, "You HAVE to read this." I finished the novel in three days and absolutely loved it… More

30 years ago, "The Empire Strikes Back" blasted into theaters and shattered expectations by surpassing its predecessor "Star Wars" later renamed "A New Hope."
Last night Lucasfilm held a special screening of the film at the ArcLight Theater in Los Angeles for charity. It was followed by a question and answer period with Harrison Ford. Billy Dee Williams, Peter Mayhew and Ewan McGregor were also in attendance. And for some reason so were Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz. Seriously, who let them in the door?
I must admit they all look old. Especially Peter Mayhew who played Chewbacca. But, he does have a pretty kick ass lightsaber cane.
Here's Darth Vader and Luke's lightsaber duel edited together from "Empire." My small way of celebrating. I may also go up to random people and tell them "I am your father." On second thought, that may be too creepy.
And finally, check out this Imperial Star Destroyer themed home theater. It has Han frozen in carbonite and everything. Pretty sweet.


text: I've been on a real "Let's make pizza that's nothing like real pizza" kick lately and I like how things are going so far. Prosciutto, fig, and arugula pizza is exactly that. Full disclosure, my mom actually introduced me to the prosciutto and fig combo—I was blown away by how simple and delicious it was….

Do you want to learn how to receive laser targeted, high quality traffic from organic search engine results? As in free traffic?
Listen up, special deal. NO hype!
I was sitting on the fence to sign up for a great Search Engine Optimizing Course.
The expert on this matter is my friend Ross Goldberg, and I really wanted to learn how he got these high search engine rankings leading to laser pinpointed traffic.
I already read his outstanding book SEO Diamond a few times. Eye opening! (I just downloaded version 3 and in a moment I'll show you how to get it too).
His workshop sells for $197, but I think it's worth every penny.
But Ross also sells a book called Traffic Masters for $97 and I was interested in that one too.
Couldn't make up my mind ….
… until now!
You see, Ross needs some help to cover medical expenses for his parents. This is no marketing trick, I followed his posts about the topic on the Warrior forum.
By the way, Ross himself is a disabled veteran and every time I wonder where he finds the strength and power to get over these problems he has.
But I digress.
Here's the special deal.
You can get everything (and a bit more) mentioned above for the amazing fire sale price of …
only $47!
I just downloaded my package and first impressions are great. Videos, audios and ebooks packed with valuable information.
Now, normally I wouldn't recommend this to you before going through the whole package, but …
– I KNOW Ross Goldberg and
– I KNOW his stuff is valuable and
– it's a fire sale! This price is valid for only a few days and I don't want to leave you out of this great deal.
So I urge you to get your package now.
I highly recommend it.
Download your copy now and study it in the weekend.
On Monday you're on your way to better rankings and laser pinpointed traffic.

We received the following from Richard Moore (Chairman of Friends Of Rye Wurlitzer) a few days ago about an interesting event that they are holding with the Wurlitzer at Rye College. Sounds like an interesting night. If you are in the area, why not join them?
"Two years ago I was approached by the Rye Rotarians to arrange an evening whereby their members could hear the Rye Wurlitzer.
Who else could I ask to assist than my fine friend and internationally acclaimed Theatre Organist " Mr Wurlitzer" Len Rawle.
We called the event "For One Night Only" but it was enjoyed by all who attended ( in the end around 70 Rotarians attended from 9 different clubs in the region)
So, we thought we would arrange "For One Night Only - The Sequel" as part of the Rye Bay Scallop Festival 2010.
What do people do at a "For One Night Only" event, well, I hope they will enjoy a very different musical experience entwined with a supper, good company and fun with a capital F.
Here is our menu of proceedings for Friday 26th February at Rye College.
7pm Guests arrive for Welcome drink and nibbles
7.30pm - Supper is served. Coquille St.Jacques on a scallop shell accompanied by Cous Cous and Salad served with a glass of wine. Followed by Gateaux and Cream. Coffee and mints to conclude
8.40pm Our entertainment commences with Len Rawle rising maje stically on the Historic Rye Wurlitzer performing a Mini Concert / Demonstration assisted by myself where required PLUS accompany two short silent movies ( the main part of their job when the instrument first arrived in the country). Len is a fine exponent of this very special technique and is worth coming just for this.
The finale has been produced at very little expense and will not only be different, memorable and quite unique to Rye but we hope highly amusing.
Carriages and other modes of transport at 10pm.
Tickets are £9.50 per person and in aid of Rye College. Tickets are available by telephoning 01797 222545 during college hours or evenings 01424 444058 or of course reserve via email to this address. Cheques payable to Rye College
Tickets will be limited to 100 for maximum enjoyment and are now on sale.
May I welcome you all to this very special event.
Best Wishes,
Richard Moore

Crab spiders are known to change color to match the color of the flower they're on. Obviously, this one hasn't been on the nicotiana flower long enough to change. It's a male; females are larger.
I made a loop around the backyard after a heavy rain early this morning. This crab spider looked comfortable back in a fold of the spider lily flower. It's a male too, and apparently a different species because of the differences in color and size. Maybe those dark legs could mimic a dried piece of the plant.

¡Buenas tardes, compañeros!
Spending all of this week in Valencia, Spain for Campus Party 2007, I'm having loads of fun hanging out with the other Summer of Code students and all the nice people from Google.
I have tried hard to get some work done for my Summer of Code project this week, but it's rather hard to really concentrate when you're in a room with thousands of people playing computer games, having shouting competitions and generally a lot of noise. I wish I had noise-canceling earphones.
Still, I'm currently working on some code that should make my life easier next week. Writing utility functions is lots of work, but usually worth it.
Yesterday, I had a fun time delivering my presentation about experiences with Google Summer of Code and tips how to get into Google Summer of Code in 2008. The small lecture room that Google uses for the talks and tutorials was pretty full, so I hope some of these people will actually get into Google Summer of Code next year. I did not really get into details on my current and previous projects but rather talked about personal experiences and strategies to get your proposal accepted.
Apart from writing code for my SoC project, preparing and giving the talk, I'm having fun with the Googlers and SoCers, hanging out at the beach at 3 in the night, having nice food and generally enjoying myself. Sleep is a bit short, but there's always something.
¡Hasta luego!

Fear is a useful emotion that helped our species survive in the wild through hundreds of thousands of years of evolution. If our ancestors hadn't learned to recognise and react to the danger of a predator attack or natural disaster, then you and I probably wouldn't be here right now to talk about it.
When fear hits, your body releases a deluge of hormones like adrenaline and cortisol. These act to elevate your blood pressure and heart rate, priming your body to fight off the source of the anxiety. This high-energy state might be useful when you're being chased by a saber-toothed tiger, but if left unchecked it can lead to irrational thinking and chronic health problems.
If that sounds like something you want to avoid, then follow these 4 simple steps to release your fears and get your body and mind back under control:
See Also: How to Handle the Fear of Failure
1. Return to the Present Moment
Fear is often the result of negative thoughts and beliefs about the future -- i.e. something that you believe may happen is causing your mind to react now. Before you can even begin to get over your fears, you'll need to come back to the present moment and stop your imagination spiralling out of control. This can be accomplished with a few minutes of simple meditation.
First of all, find a comfortable place to sit or lie down. Now close your eyes and focus on your breathing. Notice how it feels and sounds as you inhale and exhale. If your mind begins to wander and your fears begin to resurface, just let them pass and bring your attention back to the sound of your breath. Keep this up for a few minutes, or until you feel relaxed and at peace.
2. Find out What You're Afraid of
Now that you're in a more rational state of mind, you're ready to tackle the source of your fears. It might sound obvious, but the first step is to determine exactly what it is you're afraid of. This will help you narrow down the issue and make it easier to figure out what you need to do to resolve it.
Think about your fears for a moment, and try to get as detailed as possible. For example, "I fear going to work" is not specific enough: Which aspect of your job causes you the most worry? Do you feel intimidated by your boss? Are the hours and workload killing your personal life? Make sure you're 100% clear on the source of your fears before moving on.
3. Imagine the Worst-Case Scenario
As a simple thought experiment, try to imagine the absolute worst that could happen if what you're afraid of comes to pass. The more ridiculous and exaggerated you can get with this, the better.
Taking the example from above, imagine going to work and getting beaten up by your boss as all your colleagues watch and laugh, then returning home to find your spouse has left you for the milkman and your family and friends have disowned you.
It might seem counter-intuitive, but this is a great way to put your fear into perspective. You'll begin to realise how incredibly unlikely the worst-case scenario is, which in turn will diminish the intensity and grip of your anxiety.
4. Confront and Overcome the Problem
This is where the rubber meets the road. To get rid of your fears once and for all, you'll need to take action and meet them head-on. Start off by visualising yourself tackling the issue and getting the outcome you want. Notice how you felt afraid, but did it anyway and coped well. Try this exercise a few times to build up your confidence, and then go ahead and do it for real.
If you're afraid of the unknown, it might help to follow a process of gradual exposure until the situation feels comfortable to you. Don't like meeting new people? Spend a few minutes with a crowd of strangers, and then get out. Do this whenever the opportunity presents itself and push yourself to stay a little longer each time.
In all cases, take a moment to reflect afterwards, acknowledge your bravery and congratulate yourself. This will help to build your self-belief and resistance to fear in the future.
See Also: Maintaining a Positive Attitude at Work
Remember, it's perfectly normal -- even useful -- to feel afraid sometimes. Just don't let fear take over your life, damage your health or prevent you from achieving your goals. Whenever you feel your worries or anxieties beginning to surface, follow the steps above to stop them in their tracks and take back control of yourself.
Now it's your turn: What are you most afraid of, and how do you deal with it? Leave your thoughts in the comments box below!

The Relaxed Whisky Weekend...
Maltstock, the Relaxed Whisky Weekend as it is also called, came highly recommended by many people to us in the last year, so we just had to check it out... :-)
So off we went to Overasselt near Nijmegen in the Netherlands. This is the 5th time Maltstock is being held and many whisky enthusiasts were gathered here.
I traveled there together with my husband and two friends, all for the first time being there. In the short introduction I have written before that I am just starting to explore the wonderful of whisky, and so I hoped to meet some of the people I have met online so far, and to have some lovely drams and fun off course...!
The last year a lot has happened, and also learned a lot about whisky. Many travels, distillery visits, tastings etc. over which I wrote here. But I still have my blog and notes for my own reference and do not want to be too serious about it, but just have fun that is the most important thing I find with whisky. A short walkthrough of my experiences at Maltstock...
Before checking in at Maltstock we stopped next door for some late lunch at a restaurant, and to meet also with some people we before met online. After this we went next door where the wonderful Maltstock crew welcomed us at the door. At the room a bottle of whisky was welcoming us to the relaxed weekend, very nice!
I was looking forward to have the chance to attend some great masterclasses and to have some great drams. At Maltstock many people bring a bottle to the table for sharing. This has as a result that many tables are just totally filled with bottles, so many, often I just could not choose from it.
Soon it was time for the first masterclass. Billy Abbott was on time, and according to everyone there that was something special, and he was ready to start even a bit early. He brought us some very nice bottlings from the Whisky Exchange to taste. My tasting notes and post about his masterclass can be found here.
At the masterclass it was time to get some dinner. They have arranged some Chinese food for us all. In the meantime the group I came with was together again and we found also some connection with some other people being there for the first time. Some had some other beautiful masterclasses to go to, so after dinner we split up a bit again.
So off to the tables again to have a look around for what whisky's there are and what to taste this evening. I wanted not to just drink, but also really taste and try to make some quick notes, so I can build my further reference field. So had a look around and found my self with some different editions of brands, off what I tasted something before Maltstock, and wanted to expand the list on those ones, to see what more they have.
Or from some distilleries I did notice that people brought some different bottlings, so that gave me also a chance to taste some things side by side, to try to see the differences, or to see if something I might have not liked in an official bottling I like in the independed ones... An attack plan for the massive amount of whisky available was born. Now I just had to tell my liver that it was going to have a hard job this weekend, and that it was, but fun...
Friday night we had some fun at the whisky quiz, hosted by Michael Lord. It was a challenge for sure and we found that we did know some trivia, but much was just too specific knowledge for us. We became the proud owners of the shared last spot. The only way is up we found, and see a challenge for the next time we participate! Have to brush up the knowledge, but also want to keep it also realistic and there is more then trivia...
We shared some drams with some very nice people we met that evening, and had some great conversations. There was a great atmosphere around have to say, and we had much fun. On the Saturday morning we were up early to get some very very very nice breakfast prepared for us by the the Highlander Inn. That was very welcome to us all, can tell you that.
After having this lovely breakfast I went to the Chapel for the next masterclass. The one I was looking very much forward to. Suntory presented by Tatsuya Minagawa. This was a lovely masterclass and he told us the history and differences between the Scottish and Japanese way of working. My tasting notes and post about this masterclass can be found here.
At the tables later I was also looking a bit at the not Scottish bottles. Find it very interesting to experiment a bit and try the different things out there. Found that the most there was Scottish, but found some Swedish, Danish, and also Japanese ones. Had a try at some of those, and found it very interesting to see the differences due to different climates or techniques.
Some distilleries are maybe a bit young still, but they made me curious to keep an eye out for them and see what the future brings there. This is what I find nice at occasions like this, just to be able to compare and experiment a bit. There are some beautiful expensive whisky's there to taste, but decided that I would not give in to those, and sticked to the tasting of the "a bit more easy to obtain in budget".
Don't get me wrong, have no problem with the other ones, but want to be realistic. My palate and nose are still work in progress, and still developing a lot at the moment. And find it a bit a shame to taste something, and like it, and not been able the to purchase, but just to have said "I have tasted that one, from cask no.X and year Y" No, I find that is less important. I have to enjoy it, and understand it. Whisky should be fun. Should give you a smile...
After a sandwich and some nice drams, it was time for my last masterclass of Maltstock, so back to the chapel for the Masters of Malt. We got a masterclass on the 'That Boutique-y Whisky Company' and not a line up from some other great bottlings that they have, that was were I was hoping at. Have written about it a little post together with my tasting notes on the line-up here.
The Saturday was concluded with a nice BBQ, and then we all went so warm a bit up by the huge campfire and have a little desert tasting from some great ones from Benriach, Glendronach, and Glenglassauch. We had some great entertainment and fun, and after that I rolled in to my bed for a couple of hours much needed sleep...
The Sunday morning we had another great breakfast, and then it was time to pack up and say goodbye to every one... We had fun, and we met some very nice people. It was great to be there, and I can understand why they call it the Relaxed Whisky Weekend. Thanks to the Maltstock crew for the great weekend! It was fun!

installing RedHat 7 on system with Solaris/x86 partition unconditionally
overwrites that Solaris partition because partition ID of Soalris is the

now installer does not ask about which swap partitions to use and

I belive it should provide a list of found Linux Swap (Solaris) partitions
and asks about which one(or more) to use as swap.

years ago when I blogged about wanting TOMS for the kids? I totally called that one. I have been wanting pink sparkly TOMS for Maggie since I first laid eyes on them. I could never bring myself to do it though. Or, when I did get up the guts to spend the money, they would be out of stock in her size. Grr. Finally, they changed the style of the sparkly TOMS and discontinued the "sequined-style." Grr. Not wanting to miss another boat, I ordered the fabric glitter TOMS immediately. Sadly, they tore through in exactly one minute (ok, like 45 minutes, but one wearing). Grr. TOMS were great to replace them and make it right, but we had to choose a plain canvas style to avoid the same problem all over again. Grr.
So, where am I going with all this??? SEQUINED STYLE SPARKLY TOMS ARE BACK! And "I" am the proud owner of a pair. Er, two pairs. Because now I have two daughters.
Aunt Anna wanted to see a picture, so here it is. Mags rocking the pink sparkly TOMS:
Pretty sure they're on the wrong feet.

baby/kid toms are the cutest things I have ever seen. Can't wait for my little guy to start walking so i can get him a pair. I can't quite justify spending the money on a fetus that won't walk for a year or so. :-)

Constant Cravings.
A wise teacher of mine introduced me to the concept of weighing my cravings up against my desires. (His name is Colin Campbell and I can provide details of how to get hold of him should anyone be interested.) I realised that in my life I am constantly being presented with a choice between a craving (instant gratification) or my desire (long term goal). For example: It is my desire to be in a mutually beneficial relationship with a man that I love and respect and who will stimulate me both mentally and physically (duh!) But it is often my craving to get "jiggy" with Mr. Dark-horse on the dance floor who is clearly 100 miles of bad road. Mr Dark-horse is not going to improve my life in any lasting way. He might provide one supercharged and electric (if not shady) experience and then prove to be emotionally unavailable and spiritually ill in all other aspects. But God he is soooooo HOT! And sometimes that which we know is not good for us is irresistible, like that cream stuffed chocolate éclair which they clearly seemed to forget to mention was allowed in the Abs diet.
Daniel Goleman, Author of Emotional Intelligence, talks about a test that was conducted on hundreds of small children to determine whether or not they would prove to be successful in life. It was called the marshmallow test and was more accurate in determining a successful future than IQ tests and whatever the socio-economic backgrounds of the kids were. It was not their intelligence, nor their level of education and financial situations that determined whether or not they would succeed in life. But rather, whether or not they were able to delay their gratification over a period of time which set them apart as overall winners. The test involved presenting each child with a marshmallow and then leaving them on their own after being told that if they were able to wait until an adult returned that they would then be rewarded with an additional marshmallow. If they could not wait, they were allowed to eat the marshmallow but, then would not get another one. Follow up research found that all the children that were prepared to wait were the highest percentage of achievers out of all the other tests that were taken. The recipe for success therefore seems to involve huge lashings of delayed gratification. That means I have to tell Mr Dark-horse to giddy up and keep my éclair in the fridge until Sunday (International cheat eating day.) I wonder if there is any value in buying a pack of marshmallows and storing them in my cupboard for a few weeks to remind myself to focus more on my desire rather than constantly indulging in my cravings. Weird thing is that I really don't like marshmallows unless they are in a chocolate Easter egg or melting in a mug of hot chocolate. Why is it that we are attracted to so many things that could do us such serious harm over a period of time? Why do I crave bad foods, bad relationships and bad thinking habits? I suppose a goal is that much more satisfying to achieve if it is achieved after great effort. It seems so simple in theory. Say no to today's pork sausage and so, say yes to tomorrows perfect six pack. But in practise these things are deceptively challenging. Lust is very good at overriding the brains mainframe as is the stomachs argument for a whole slab of whole nut chocolate. In essence I guess I need to reclaim my goals and desires by owning every decision I make along the way. Every bite I take or flirt I make with the wrong slice of cake (be it chocolate or beef) is one step closer or further away from who I want to be and who I want to be with. As my friend Catherine says: "Baby steps." Baby steps indeed Cath.

August 2016
Welcome to the August issue of PB. It's been a month of fantastic privilege – one that editor Matt has all but missed, because he cleared off on holiday for most of it. So not only did the rest of us have all the fun, but I'm also stepping into the breach to tell you about the amazing month we had producing PB... Our regular road tester and road-race legend Michael Rutter was gobsmacked by the performance, poise and peerless quality of Honda's racer-on-the-road, the RC213V-S.
The race-kitted roadbike he got to try on the Isle of Man blew him away. Elsewhere in the world of dream bikes, I rode one of mine this month: a cuttingedge, two-stroke 500 V4. Suter's MMX500 got off to a steadyish start at the TT, but it's an incredible, unparalleled experience that will only get faster and more competitive.
And at the opposite end of the spectrum, our budget Bandit 600 racebike won its first meeting.
Enjoy the issue – we certainly did.
Inside this issue...
"I'd buy three tomorrow"
The two-stroke isn't dead: the Suter MMX500 is very much alive, fast and coming to the road. PB rode and adored Ian Lougher's TT bike.
"It's worth every penny"
We gave Rutter the chance to ride the world's finest roadbike, on his favourite road race track in the world – the TT course. He liked it. A lot...
Our bikes: Winner!
Chris and Whitey's hard hours in the workshop pay off, as PB's Project Bandit takes maiden victory at Oulton Park.

It is possible to create some fabulous interiors using revealed brick walls. The rich red, yellow or brown of brick and its interesting texture makes an exposed brick wall a real asset in a modern, relaxed space. There are some key rules to follow, though.
1. Plenty of light
If there is not enough light in your interior, whether natural or artificial, an exposed brick wall will look gloomy and a little cold. The look works best when there are large windows or a carefully design lighting system indoors to make the look feel cosy, not chilly.
2. Don't overdo it
In many smaller spaces, it is overpowering to have all the walls left as exposed brick. If you're lucky enough to have a large space with high ceilings then stripping back all the walls might be an option, but otherwise you are best to go with a single wall or section of wall. Choosing an internal wall will help to keep your property insulated – you don't want to strip insulation from an external wall.
3. Soften the look
Exposed brick walls work well when they are contrasted with another texture or material. This could be the smoothness of some lovely 1950s furniture, shiny seat coverings or soft furnishings in muted colours. If you're going for exposed brick walls, that will be the most powerful aspect of your design. Everything else should be chosen to compliment that key focus.
4. Be prepared for a rough surface
It can be a bit of a shock when the plaster is first peeled back from a wall. Bricks are not always as pretty as they look in the design magazines, so you need to decide if you're happy to live with the character of a bumpy wall with the odd mismatched brick, or if you want to invest in some rebuilding to tidy things up.
If you're not sure if you want to go for an exposed brick wall, why not look at these images of how the look can work on Architecture Art Designs or check out this Houzz page.

I stumbled upon this place amidst the beautiful scenery of Baguio City. It might be thought as out of place if you compare it side by side the tourist spots that the city lauds to the world. But perhaps its being out of ordinary and its grotesque beauty were the reason why I was drawn to the place.
The once Diplomat Hotel lies unassuming atop the mountains not far from the famous Grotto in the City. What was left now of this once majestic architecture are its ruins, otherwise abandoned and un-used except perhaps to the artistic productions that it lends its charms. As we stopped at the foot of its driveway, I was held in captivated by the view of the old charm of the structure. Surrounding this old vestige of beauty is the unparalleled scenery of pines, florals and the mountains coming together to complement the aura of solitude and quiet place. Coming inside the building and exploring every possible nook, I could not help but to imagine the grandeur it had before. And as the sunlight crept into its once doors and windows, I could not help but to whip out my camera to capture the elegance that I have perceived amidst the blocks of concrete and old woods.
It was a pity that we were not allowed to explore further the upper floors since they are not that stable anymore as per the caretaker of the place. But then, as I walked out into the sun once again, I could not help but to give the place a second look. We often look for beauty, oftentimes with the standards setup by the commercial world. But if we only stop looking for the unattainable and learn to seek out the beautiful beneath the shallow surface, we can find that real beauty is within every people and places that we normally would not expect to be beautiful. Treasures troves are found not in the usual places but on the unexpected, unexplored destination that only those who open up their minds to see the difference will understand.

November is Prematurity Awareness Month
"Iatrogenic prematurity refers to the birth of a physiologically immature and/or low-weight infant who is delivered prematurely as a result of medical intervention."
The United States recently received a "D" on the March of Dimes 2009 Premature Birth Report Card. This is alarming, and raises some serious concerns. Much needed research is being done on the causes and possible prevention of preterm labor.

Hello Community,
I rarely post about a specific bills, but this one in specific will have a special place in my heart. The bill addresses the hate speech UC Santa Cruz lecturer and the inaction by the UC Office of the President to address this issue. You can see the hateful words of ignorance for yourself here: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UnSlbOhZgGI and read the bill below!
Tonight I want to thank the MEMSA community members who showed up tonight and were brave enough to share the harsh realities faced by the Muslim community in post-9/11 America. I also want to thank Senator Sadia Saifuddin for consistently being open in sharing her experiences as a Muslim womyn. I am extremely grateful that I have been able to meet you and learn more about your experiences. I think it is extremely important for all people to become educated on issues facing the Muslim community. We must deconstruct the innacurate and ignorant anti-Islam narrative that often plagues our minds through the way in which the media shapes our knowledge of the Middle East and the Muslim community.
Forever an ally of the Muslim community,
A Resolution Condemning Islamophobic Hate Speech at the University of California
Authored By: Senator Sadia Saifuddin
Co-sponsored By: Senator Sadia Saifuddin, Senator Klein Lieu, Senator Rosemary Hua, Senator George Kadifa, Senator Daley Vertiz
WHEREAS, the University of California has identified the issue of campus climate as a priority for administration, staff, and students across the UC system; and,
WHEREAS, the UC prides itself on welcoming students from any race, religion, gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation, yet pockets of racism and hate still exist on this campus which makes the UC an unwelcoming experience for certain communities; and,
WHEREAS, Islamophobia is defined as the irrational fear of Islam, Muslims, or anything related to the Islamic or Arab cultures and traditions; and,
WHEREAS, since September 11, 2001, Islamophobia has become the latest "hazing" technique across the United States and has created a chilling effect for Muslims, Arabs, and South Asians in their communities, work-environments, and campuses; and,
WHEREAS, according to a Gallup Study, 60% of of Muslim Americans say that Muslims face prejudice from Americans [1]; and,
WHEREAS, 48% of Muslim Americans say that they have personally faced racial or religious discrimination, which is on par with Hispanic Americans (48%), and African Americans (45%), while 54% of Arab Americans say they have experienced this type of discrimination[2]; and,
WHEREAS, since 2006, Muslim students have been targeted for surveillance by the FBI in Orange County, who said that they are paying particular attention to Muslim students at UC Irvine and UCLA; and,
WHEREAS, this surveillance is occurring on the East Coast as well, with the New York Police Department surveillance of Muslim students at Yale, Columbia, Syracuse, Rutgers, New York University, and Brooklyn College [3]; and,
WHEREAS, these racist and selective surveillance procedures are justified by figures in mainstream media, such as David Horowitz, who defines the core mission of the MSA to "advance the Islamic Jihad against the Jews and Christians of the Middle East, and ultimately against the United States", and,
WHEREAS, attempts to mischaracterize and chill Palestinian activism have occurred on Berkeley's own campus, with a lawsuit filed in July 2011(later dismissed in court) against the UC Regents and President Mark Yudof containing extremely Islamophobic and anti-Arab rhetoric referring to Students for Justice in Palestine and the Muslims Students Association as "anti-Semitic" and "pro-terrorist"; and,
WHEREAS, the plaintiffs in the lawsuit allege that "the more publicly active SJP may be understood as the more militant arm of the outwardly benevolent MSA" and that SJP, MSA, and MSU all "fund terrorism" and are tied to terrorist groups; and,
WHEREAS, more recently, UC Santa Cruz lecturer Tammi Rossman-Benjamin has been responsible for inciting racist and Islamophobic rhetoric by claimings that students in the MSA and SJP are "…generally motivated by very strong religious and political convictions, they have a fire in their belly, they come to the university, many of them are foreign students who come from countries and cultures where anti-Semitism is how they think about the world … These are not your ordinary student groups like College Republicans or Young Democrats. These are students who come with a serious agenda, who have ties to terrorist organizations."; and,
WHEREAS, claims such as those cited above create an unsafe and divisive environment for Middle Eastern, Muslim, South Asian students, and others who may be perceived as being of similar descent, and these claims are completely opposite to the values of a premier university system; and,
WHEREAS, the President of the University of California, Mark Yudof, is responsible for advocating for all students regardless of race, ethnicity, religion, or sexual orientation; and,

[3] http://www.nytimes.com/2012/02/28/nyregion/nypd-muslim-monitoring-and-a-climate-of-fear.html?_r=0
WHEREAS, the University of California is no place for hateful and inflammatory rhetoric and holds its students, faculty, staff, and affiliates to higher standards that promote a positive and inclusive campus climate; therefore,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the ASUC condemn the remarks of lecturer Tammi Rossman-Benjamin and those described in the above-mentioned lawsuit as hateful and inflammatory; and,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the ASUC urge President Mark Yudof to condemn these inflammatory, hateful, and racist assumptions by UCSC lecturer Tammi Rossman-Benjamin against Middle Eastern, Muslim, and South Asian students, and Palestinian rights activists; and,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that EAVP Shahryar Abbasi write a letter to UCOP condemning the racist and bigoted language by Tammi Rossman-Benjamin and President Yudof's failure to address the matter, as well as passing a similar bill with UCSA; and,
BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that the ASUC urge other campuses to pass similar bills in their respective student governments.

– The Associated Press
BOSTON – Ben Cherington was in his first year in a major league front office — as an advance scout for the Cleveland Indians — when he came across Sandy Alomar Jr.
"He didn't know who I was in '98 with Cleveland," said Cherington, who is now the Red Sox general manager and leading the search for a new manager in Boston. "But I saw him in the clubhouse — I was in the clubhouse all the time — and I saw the leader he was back then, the respect he had in that clubhouse. I've been sort of following him since then."
It was that respect that led Cherington to add Alomar to the short list of candidates interviewing to replace Terry Francona as the Red Sox manager. Brewers hitting coach Dale Sveum and Phillies bench coach Pete Mackanin have been in to discuss the job; former Pirates and White Sox manager Gene Lamont and Blue Jays first base coach Torey Lovullo are scheduled later this week.
Cherington said he hasn't ruled out additional candidates.
Alomar, who spent parts of 20 seasons catching in the majors — most notably as the 1990 AL Rookie of the Year and a six-time All-Star for the Indians — has been the first base coach in Cleveland for two seasons. He is the only candidate the Red Sox have acknowledged who has no managerial experience.
"His name kept coming up as a guy with a ton of respect in baseball," Cherington said. "We felt that in spite of the lack of managerial experience, it was worth getting to know him better. He's going to be a major league manager. Whether that's in 2012 or sometime after that, I'm very confident to say that he'll be a big league manager sometime."
The Red Sox parted ways with Francona after the unprecedented September collapse. After allegations of players fattening up on fried chicken and beer during games, each managerial candidate has been grilled by reporters on his approach to clubhouse discipline.
"The goal for a manager is to let your players manage themselves. In order to do that, you have to let the guys play," he said. "I am a guy that lets the players play the game. You have some rules, but you respect the players (and) they respect you back."
Alomar, 45, also played for the Padres, White Sox, Rockies, Rangers, Dodgers and Mets. He had a lifetime average of .273 with 112 homers and 588 RBI.
He said he has played for nine managers, all of whom reached the postseason in their careers; six of them reached the World Series, and two of them won it. His father, Sandy Alomar Sr., spent 15 seasons in the majors as a second baseman, and his brother, Roberto, is in the Hall of Fame.
So it's no surprise that when asked to describe his managerial style, he said, "I like the family atmosphere."
"We are a family. We bonded — coaches, players," he said. "That's the way I would handle it."
JORGE POSADA said there's no chance he will be back with the New York Yankees next year and his choice is move on to another team or retire.
Speaking before his foundation's annual dinner, Posada said his agents had heard from about a half-dozen teams who expressed interest.
DIAMONDBACKS: Arizona signed infielder Willie Bloomquist to a two-year, $3.8 million deal.
Bloomquist became a free agent when he turned down his end of a $1.1 million mutual option Nov. 1. He signed with Arizona last offseason and became the everyday shortstop when Stephen Drew broke his ankle July 20.
MARLINS: The team gave free-agent shortstop Jose Reyes a tour of its new ballpark.
The Marlins also are courting left-hander Mark Buehrle, who took a ballpark tour Tuesday. Also, the owner, Jeffrey Loria, and a contingent of team officials plan to visit the Dominican Republic today to watch a private workout by a highly regarded Cuban outfielder, Yoenis Cespedes.
YANKEES: General Manager Brian Cashman said it's too early in the offseason to determine whether he'll go for a big-name addition to his rotation.
Cashman said the Yankees again could sign low-cost veterans with uncertain value. Prospects such as Hector Noesi, David Phelps, Adam Warren and Dellin Betances also could be looked at in spring training.
CUBS: Texas pitching coach Mike Maddux interviewed for the open manager's job.
Maddux has helped the Rangers win back-to-back AL pennants and is the brother of a former Cubs ace, Greg Maddux, who was an assistant to the former Chicago GM, Jim Hendry.
CARDINALS: Hall of Famer Ryne Sandberg and longtime St. Louis third-base coach Jose Oquendo interviewed for the manager opening.
Both interviews took place in St. Louis.
ASTROS: Houston agreed to minor league contracts with outfielder Travis Buck and outfielder-first baseman Nick Stavinoha, and both have been given non-roster invites to spring training.

I was hoping my hand would heal extremely quickly and although it is much better, it still has a dressing and is very tender! I haven't picked up any sewing or crochet since Sunday!! It may not sound like a very long time but it seems like an eternity to me!
However, I received a lovely message yesterday from Vicky which cheered me up immensely! Vicky is the lady who asked me to make some felt flowers which could be incorporated in to her wedding bouquet.
Vicky sent me some gorgeous wedding photographs including these two of her bouquet!
I think the felt flowers look lovely with the cream gerberas!
Thank you Vicky for the beautiful photographs!

Someday, we think, Maile will become a renowned chef. That, or a veterinarian with an affinity for baking and cooking. In the meantime, our sweet girl is my number one idea machine and critic.
This afternoon, as I heaped a leftover black bean enchilada onto a plate for us to share, she tilted her head ... "Mama?" "Yes." "These 'chiladas are too spicy for Maile; can I have something different?" From the child who will eat Sriracha (we like spice around here).
When it comes to breakfast, Maile is a creature of habit: scrambled eggs, steel cut oats, from-scratch biscuits and gravy. One morning last week though, she asked for muffins. "Sure!" I said, reaching for a mixing bowl. "After eggs," she clarified. Of course.
She really wanted to use apples in our recipe, and these One Bowl Apple Almond Muffins were the result. This recipe is paleo friendly, and easy to make vegan, too. For muffins, they are quite nutritious and not too sweet; Maile ate two straight out of the oven!
You can find the recipe here. Enjoy, friends.
