Thurs May 23rd 2013 | An Ordinary Idealist
Thurs May 23rd 2013
June 26, 2013 · by ordinaryidealist	· in Stream of Consciousness.	·
So comfortable in bed these days! It’s ridiculously comfortable in here at the moment! My eyes are barely open so this will be interesting indeed. Yesterday was an interesting day, spent a lot of it walking around London. Was grey but still wonderful. Woke up this morning and it looks absolutely beautiful, so my walking adventures will be wondrous today aswell, no doubt, with the added extra of being in [illegible]! Yay! I don’t seem to be able to remember my dream from last night. I’m sure I had them..! But I can’t remember. I feel a bit haunted at the moment; by what, I don’t know. I suppose once I’m able to be more honest with myself I’ll be able to understand better. Let’s see. Coffee and dinner with Ernie yesterday was great fun; he’s always the best of company and we always have those wonderful conversations where two people seem to understand each other perfectly. I’m lucky to have a few people like that in my life. I also enjoy his narrative style; always tells a story in a conspiratorial way – as though some great secret is being shared!
Was absolutely shocked when I got home last night and heard about what happened in Woolwich yesterday. Literally didn’t know how to react. Such brutality. It’s sad. I keep thinking about that poor soldier; what he must have gone through, and his family. God. Such cruelty and disrespect for human life. It’s just awful that this kind of immeasurably grotesque and fucked up capacity for hate still remains in the human make-up. Horrible.
Learning to walk again. Interesting. A real struggle. I don’t understand why it’s so hard. Still, it’s been done before, and can be done again. My brain works in very strange ways. It tends to want to go around in circles around issues which cause anxiety and pain and in the name of what…? I don’t know. It’s strange. And difficult. Very difficult. In many ways things are good at the moment, they really are. But my brain.. Can’t shake the anxiety, the questions, the anticipation of things tumbling down completely… Maybe not now, maybe not in a year, but at some point. I can’t bring myself to trust in things completely. Which is sad. The good news is that this is all resolvable with enough commitment and hard work; I just need to keep working at resolving these patterns and learn to trust myself. Ultimately that’s what it comes down to. If I fully trust myself, other concerns aren’t bigger than I am. If I don’t, the world is a big, scary place. I’m not letting the world look so intimidating anymore.
And of course there’s always the other, entirely reliable plus point of life: breakfast! Yeah!

Thai chicken whole wheat pasta with fresh local peppers, onions and mushrooms and asparagus and balsamic drizzle.A) Spago Beverly HillsB) CampanileC) Michael's Santa MonicaD) LAFD Station 92The surprising answer, gluttons and gourmands, is the fire house on Pico near Overland. No kidding.I know this because I got invited to a dinner at 92 about a month ago. It was a thank-you feast, cooked by firefighters for neighbors whose fundraising has paid for tools, a dishwasher, gym equipment and even a portable Jaws of Life.That night, Capt. Craig Nielsen made enchiladas suizas with green chilies, Spanish rice and a Mexican salad with jicama, roasted corn and tortilla strips. For dessert, he whipped up some dreamy home-made strawberry shortcake with fresh cream.It was restaurant-quality, in my humble opinion."He's the best chef here," said Jared Cooper, one of three firefighting brothers who followed their dad into the profession.I like to tinker in the kitchen, so I offered Cooper a recipe that I thought would be a firehouse crowd pleaser. But when I got to dipping chicken in butter and rolling it in bread crumbs and grated Parmesan, he tuned me out."Those days are over," Cooper said, telling me that if they weren't cooking for visitors, they would have used brown rice instead of white."Heart disease is the No. 1 killer of firemen, so we don't need to contribute to that by clogging our arteries."Great, but come on. No spaghetti and meatballs? No four-alarm chili or franks and beans? I like Cal-Med cuisine too, but these guys have a tradition to uphold.There are still some old-school firehouses, it turns out, where meat and potatoes are followed by more meat and potatoes. Last week, 92's Jon Bowers was in the middle of preparing his cilantro chicken, with sauteed broccoli and cauliflower and a two-bean salad, when a fire call came in. The 92 crew rolled, and before long, two units from 26 rotated in to cover for them from Western and the Santa Monica Freeway. When I asked how they ate back at 26, firefighter Jeff Lore said they had some pork ribs waiting for them on the grill. But do they ever go healthy, like the 92 crew?"No, not at all," he said. "We eat ribs, burgers. Stuff that tastes good."Not that 92 doesn't loosen its belt now and then. While Bowers was making his chicken, Nielsen was working on a cherry-berry crisp with plenty of brown sugar, and with fresh cherries he pitted himself and simmered in almond syrup. (He followed a recipe he had downloaded to a digital reader that also had a timer function.)
"I'm not as health-conscious as Jared," said Nielsen, who years ago cooked briefly at a seafood house in the Valley. "Every once in a while, when he's off, I make fried chicken."Cooper, meanwhile, was talking up the benefits of homemade hummus, butternut squash, avocados, ground turkey and so on."I make a healthy cashew chicken chipotle deal," he said. "With brown rice. These are not things I just made up. We use the Food Network website, we use Epicurious or we watch a cooking show." The cashew chicken, he said, "is a Rachael Ray recipe."And I thought these guys watched rugby.Firefighter Yvonne Gutierrez said her culinary skills were limited to grilled cheese and canned soup "until Capt. Nielsen took me under his wing." Now she helps less-experienced firefighters when it's their turn to cook. With eight people on a shift, each contributes about $11 a day to cover the cost of the day's meals, and everyone has to take a turn cooking. The assigned chef does the shopping."Whatever's on sale," said Gutierrez, "that's what I'll cook."Nielsen insists that he's not the best cook in the department. In his view, that title may belong to Capt. Mark Curry at Station 29 in Mid-Wilshire.When I called Curry, he downplayed his talents, but he did say that he had once studied at the Westlake Culinary Institute.His secret in the kitchen, he said, is to keep things simple, but his idea of simple and mine may not be the same. When pressed, he described a surf and turf he once prepared that included short ribs and Chilean sea bass with wasabi mashed potatoes."Firefighters don't do a lot of dining out," Curry said, "so if you throw a little bearnaise or hollandaise sauce in there, it blows them away."Given the food budget, Curry enjoys the challenge of taking cheaper cuts of meat, like a seven-bone roast, and "cooking it all day in the right ingredients."It's the only way I have of thanking my crew," Curry said. "I can't give them raises, so all I can say is 'thank you.' And my way to do that is in the kitchen."Talking to the likes of Nielsen and Curry made me hungry, and I got to thinking it might be fun to bring the best firehouse chefs in Southern California together for a cook-off. Nielsen and Curry said they're in, and although details are still in the works, L.A. Times Food Editor Russ Parsons has agreed to be a judge.Any of you firefighters out there think you can out cook Nielsen and Curry? Or is that more heat in the kitchen than you can handle?

An antivirus booster shot - CNET
An antivirus booster shot
Network Associates is on a sumo wrestler's diet, swallowing up other companies to get big fast so it can compete with security and network powerhouses.
10 June 1998 6:15 am AEST
Network Associates is on a sumo wrestler's diet, swallowing up other companies to get big fast so it can compete with powerhouses like Computer Associates and IBM's Tivoli unit in the security and network management market.
The vendor formed last year out of the merger of McAfee Associates and Network General has been on a buying binge the past six months to bolster its offerings. The latest purchase came today with a $650 million stock swap for Dr. Solomons, a British maker of high-end antivirus software.
"To steal a line from the Godzilla press, 'Size does matter,'"said John Powers, analyst at BancAmerica Robertson Stephens in San Francisco. "Network Associates [with this purchase] is now right on the verge, if not already at, a $1 billion company revenue rate. And while that is still relatively small compared to the likes of CA, Network Associates is now a big multichannel, aggressively managed software company."
Powers added that the Santa Clara, California-based vendor "has shown over the last year that it can be a consolidator and a real player in the systems network management software arena. It has the size and aggressiveness to compete with CA and Tivoli."
Security analysts, who have watched Network Associates gobble up three other security vendors in the last six months, viewed the Doctor Solomon's acquisition as a play for European distribution of its other products. In terms of new functionality, they consider the acquisition largely redundant to Network Associates' core McAfee antivirus software.
"They were looking for a much larger European distribution channel because that's where Doctor Solomon has been most successful," said Jim Hurley, Aberdeen Group network security analyst.
"Network Associates has valid reasons--to enhance market share in their core business, get rid of a competitor, and adopt their revenue stream--but it's a hellluva lot of money," said Ted Julian, who follows network security at Forrester Research.
"To me, the bottom line is opportunity cost--they're spending an ungodly amount of money on this company," Julian added. "How many Trusted Information Systems or Pretty Good Privacies could they have bought but can't buy now?"
TIS, a firewall company Network Associates bought earlier this year and PGP, a pioneering encryption software company purchased in late 1997, are only Network Associates' highest-visibility security acquisitions.
Last month Network Associates closed its purchase of Secure Network Incorporated, a Canadian firm that specializes in scanning software that probes networks for security holes.
And the merger that created Network Associates in 1997 gave the combined firm antivirus software from McAfee Associates and Network General's Cyber Cop, a network sniffer that scouts for unauthorized users on networks.
Network Associates' strategy has been to converge acquired products with its own, initially into three suites--antivirus, security, and network management. Eventually its antivirus suite will be folded into the security suite, and network management is expected to be folded in too.
Network Associates aims to have management consoles for each suite for central management of disparate software.
"We can plug any acquisition into our console," Network Associates vice president Tracey Mustacchio said in February. "We need to create an application for IS that integrates security and network management." She indicated then that such integration might be finished by the end of 1998, although that date may slip with recent acquisition.
But some competitors note that melding separate products built on different architectures is easier said than done. And no one disputes that integrating products from a single company into a seamless offering is easier than taking disparate products from other vendors and making them work together.
Powers predicts that while 1998 is the year for Network Associates to meld operations of its recent purchases, next year will be a more vital time to watch as engineers take on the tricky task of tying together the various pieces of technology the firm has gained the past year.
"The thing to probe here is [Network Associates CEO] Bill Larson has set down an enormous smorgasbord. At what point do you say, 'Give me the Pepto-Bismol?'" Powers said. "There is a two-phase risk process. There is a sales and execution risk process in the near term and a product integration phase in the long term. My bet is they will work both through successfully."

1986; 192 pages. Genre : Science Fantasy. Overall Rating : B-..Talking Man is a wizard. But he is also a dreamer. Along with his soulmate, Dgene, they dreamed this universe into existence. Then Talking Man fell in love with his creation. So he hid in it, and lived in a small housetrailer in the hills of Kentucky with his 16-year-old daughter, Crystal. But the cosmos hath no fury like a Soulmate spurned, and Dgene is out to un-make the dream..What's To Like...Bisson is a different sort of Sci-Fi writer. His forte lies in creating fabulous, vivid worlds. The back-cover blurbs describe this one thusly :."The geography shimmers and melts, catfish as big as boats are pulled from the Mississippi, the moon crumbles into luminous rings and refugees from burning cities choke the highways." (snip) "Kentucky back roads, junkyards, fast food and magic...".Crystal and a boy named Williams find themselves driving a borrowed Mustang from Kentucky to New Mexico to the North Pole in order to help Talking Man keep his dream (and their world) alive. However, like one of my recurring dreams, the "real" is shifting almost constantly. Whole states disappear, the Mississippi River now runs through a Grand Canyon-like channel, the US-Canadian border is heavily mined, and the names of cigarette and candy brands keep changing..Bisson is kind of the antithesis of Tolkien. He presents his universes as is and without ever addressing the whys. Denver burns, but we never find out what caused this. An owl figurine is an artifact of monumental importance, but the reason is never detailed. Tolkien would obsess over the causes of such things; Bisson ignores them..Excerpt..."There are two ways to tell a wizard. One is by the blue light that plays around his tires when he is heading north on a wet pavement under the northern lights, his headlights pointed toward the top of the world that so many talk about but so few have actually seen."The other is by his singing.".I give Talking Man a B-. It's an engaging story, but in the end I was left with too many unanswered questions. For a change, I wouldn't've minded another 100 pages added to the book, in order to delve into the reasons for everything..Postscript...Oh look! My good friend Thursday Next from Jasper Fforde's series hopped into this book, and brought me back a photo of the aforementioned "Catfish as big as boats". Thanks, Thursday!
hillbilly romance,
"He presents his universes as is and without ever addressing the whys."I haven't read Tolkien. I can't speak to whether or not I like him. However, I think it would bother me not to have the whys, unless it's a world that could easily be concieved.
Amanda - if Bisson wasn't such a great "describer", i probably wouldn't make it thru his books. his not detailing the "whys" is frustrating. and the cover is a bit hyped. no flying cars. the moon changes its reality as the book progresses - develops clouds and breaks up - but i don't recall it melting.Lula - i have my doubts about that fish. it was at some site that claimed it was the "biggest catfish on record". but i'm thinking Photoshop.
No flying cars or melting moon? Seriously, where'd they get the cover then?? It's not even a GOOD cover...That fish reminds me of The Old Man and the Sea.
i just remember the Old Man yabbering endlessly to the fish as the boat is being dragged out to sea. i don't recall who the actor was, but i'm betting this movie didn't cost much to produce. put the guy in a boat/prop, make him hold a fishing line, and throw a bucket of water on him every 10 minutes or so.

TRUMP: Pictured are Louisiana Rep. Steve Scalise (R) and the kids of the Eastbank All-Stars little league baseball team from Louisiana.
Following their visit to the White House on Friday to commemorate their winning of this year’s Little League World Series championship, Trump asked the kids’ parents whether it would be okay for them to get on Air Force One for a ride back to Louisiana where Trump was headed for a campaign rally anyway.
They said yes, of course!

TRUMP ECONOMY: WOOHOO!! After less than THREE years, our national debt-to-GDP ratio is going DOWN, indicating that the economy is growing faster than the national debt!
Compare this to the Obama Economy (which Democrats want to return to). In October 2016, Rex Sinquefield wrote at Forbes:
“The Obama recovery of the last seven years remains the worst in postwar American history. Average gross domestic product (GDP) growth since the bottom of the recession in 2009 was barely above 2.1% per year. The average since 1949 is well above 4% per year during the previous 10 expansions.
“This result is not just bad, it is catastrophic. … I believe the root cause of abysmal growth is the huge tax increases imposed by Obama and the Democrats in Congress since 2008. … The massive increase in regulatory burden through the ACA and Dodd-Frank bills are also crushing.”
https://www.forbes.com/sites/rexsinquefield/2016/11/29/obama-and-the-dems-dismal-recovery/#6a304c52cb0e
HILLARY’S EMAILS: A State Department investigation of Hillary Clinton’s email server found that 38 people were responsible for “91 valid violations” – These included instances of putting classified information on Clinton’s non-classified private server. The investigation also found hundreds of other violations for which it could not assign fault. (Except maybe her setting up a private server in the first place?)
The report concludes there was no “systemic” attempt to mishandle material. I’m wondering what difference that should make. People have gone to jail for inadvertently doing a lot less than what Hillary did.

OBAMA: Speaking of quid pro quo – President Obama reportedly used public money to incentivize states to adopt Common Core standards and give Pearson Publishing $350 million to create Common Core text books.
Usually, schools only replace textbooks when they wear out. But those states that adopted Common Core had to buy all new textbooks … from Pearson … again with tax payers’ money.

BABY BODY PARTS CASE: [10:35] – Judge William Orrick finally allowed the jury to see some minutes of raw, uncut video taken by the Center for Medical Progress.
A courtroom observer told Operation Rescue that tears could been seen on the faces of some members of the jury. “The jury was stunned. It was the first time during the three-week trial that they had seen any of the debated video,” the observer told Operation Rescue.
“It was a game changer and a huge victory for the pro-life defendants. Planned Parenthood’s star witness turned into a star witness for the defense. It could not have been a better day.”

Square Root of Tuesday
["The Square Root of Tuesday" is a book first published in 1971, written by Jessica Davidson, and still, so far as I know, under copyright. The title used here should not be mistaken for that book and possibly is a violation of the copyright of the original.]
Once upon a time, there was a land called Infinia, and in this land, was a place called Lyberia. A place of stories, tales, and scripts. And one book tells about a place called Illogica. A place where Reallity doesn't exist. A place of many wonders. And in this book there are many tales. This is but one of those tales...
Chapter 1 - A Root for a Square Edit
On a particular island in Illogica, numbers are grown in great fields by Number Farmers. One of these farmers, Kael 4some, was growing 4's at the boarder of the Evens Farm, when his brother, Wan 4some, a worker at the shapes factory, came up to him and asked, "What do you think would happen if we combined shapes and numbers?" "Combine shapes and numbers?! That's never been attempted in the entire history of Numeria!!" Cried Kael, "But it it just might work." Wan replied: "Exactly."
The next day, the two brothers and there friend, Jamie, went to work. Jamie read of a list of supplies to her companions:
"Squares?"
"Fours?"
"Experimental Solution SN1?"
"Then lets get working!"
They planted the four and the square together, and watered it with an experimental solution created from the debris from the shapes factery and juice from the fours. After watering the Nmbershape for 3 weeks, it had grown into a four foot square, well, square. They dug it up and looked at its roots. They were 2's!! "Square roots..." said Wan. The three of them knew what he ment.
Chapter 2 - Tuesday's Monday Edit
"10 years later, in a news report:"
Square Roots Make Villagers Life Much Easier Throughout Illogica Edit
Proffesor Tolk A. Weikly sighed, he had been doing so well, developing days and months. Until thoses two partners Wan and Kael showed up. They ruined his entire business. He even had created a new product. Well, almost. His Weekly Collection had all the days Wednesday to Monday, but he could not create a tuesday. he had tried many times, but none of them worked out. So he sat down, and poured himself some T-Tea. It was then it came to him! If he had all of the days except tuesday, then he could find out how to create a tuesday! It was genius! He began making quick mathematical equations on his abacus. "Maybe those 4some brothers aren't so bad after all..." he said to himself.
After many calculations, he found the square root of tuesday to be between Sunday.999999999, and Monday.000000001, a couple months later, he found it was exactly Munday.null. He published his results, quoting, "It was going along terribly, until I realized that I had to make tuesday a square before I could find the squareroot..."
Chapter 3 - The Square Root of Tuesday Edit
Professor Weikly's happiness was short lived, though, for he still had not managed to create tuesday. "If only I had some Multiplication Powder..." Weikly sighed. Multi-Pow hadn't been on the market for 25 years. He had tried many times to create some, but the only person who had the recipe died a long time ago.
At that same moment, the 4some brothers were pondering a similar question: "What if we could use a numbers square root to create the actual number?" Wan had asked his brother. "Well..." Kael replied, "we would have to create something like M.P, except with a automatic variable. "You mean like this?" Jamie had just walked into the Field. The two brothers stared at her in amazement.
Professor Weikly reread the paper four the umpteenth time. The 3 creators of Square roots were coming to his hometown to Publish their product: Square Anti-Root. This could be the opportunity he was waiting for! All of the sudden he heard a knock. "I wonder who it could be at this early hour?" Weikly thought. He opened the door and gasped. Standing in his doorway was the mayor, with the 3 creators of Square roots. "Come in, Come in," Weikly said. The 4 visitors sat on the couch. The mayor said "Neither of your products have enough demand to market. But together you may market it for 2 weeks, too see if the consumers like it. You have one week.
The foursome pondered it for many days, until finally, one the last day, it came to them.
"We could use S.A.R. Powder,"
"To reverse root Monday,"
"And create Tuesday!"
"We would be able to market our products in one package, for a higher price!!"
Newspaper excerpt from Illogica:
Weikly and 4somes Partner Up to Form Random Inc. Edit
"...has marketed their first product:Weikly's Weeks' Roots and Squares...for only $19.95...contains Square Root and Anti-Root Powder, two of each day of the week, instruction booklet, and special carring case...Other products include...Word factory..."

My Project Mommyhood: Lions, and Tigers, and... funnel cakes?
Lions, and Tigers, and... funnel cakes?
Today we went on our family "Daycation" (like that one Brian?!) to Des Moines. We started our day with a picnic lunch at the park near the zoo, then wandered in to see the animals! My personal favorite was the Giraffe exhibit. Logan seemed to enjoy the petting zoo, and I believe that Brian most liked the ginormous Bull-type-animal. It was not a bull, but rather a bull-type-animal that I believe is on steroids. As we walked away Brian did whisper to me "Hey did you see his - ".
Today was pretty much the first day that Logan took my hand and walked around with me, hand in hand, for an extended period of time. He grabbed onto it so tightly, and we walked around all looked at all the animals. This was probably one of my most favorite moments thus far as a parent.
After the zoo, we met Ben and Stacey at the Iowa State Fair! Not only was it ridiculously packed, hot, and stinky... it was also pouring rain at times. Ick. Regardless, I am SO glad that we went, and even more glad that we got to spend some time with the Heggen's. We miss those guys.
You can't visit the State Fair without partaking in some fair-food-eating. While we chose NOT to sample the chocolate covered bacon or deep-fried Twinkies, we did enjoy some cheese curds, BBQ pork, chocolate ice cream, and a bite or two of strawberry shortcake. Yum. Logan had a great time, and really took a liking to Ben! They seemed to hit it off, and Logan was even reaching for Ben to pick him up and throw him up in the air. Logan eventually fell asleep in the stroller, so he missed most of the animals, but he did get to see and hear all the crazy chickens and roosters - especially that all white one with the cotton ball head! Hey, anyone know why some of the chickens lay pink eggs? Anyone?
When we got back into town we went straight to Red's to grab some dinner. Poor Logan was STARVING, but that didn't hold him back from being entertaining at the restaurant. He started the dinner by grunting, turning red, and announcing "I poo poo'd". Awesome. Then he proceeded to eat a bite of food, and shake his head uncontrollably. Then he would look around the room and catch the eye of anyone that would look back at him, smile to grab their attention, then reach out to Brian or me with pucker faces to give us a smooch - just to showcase his cuteness. What a ham. He really captured the attention of one couple, and they couldn't stop watching him the whole time. When we left, the woman said, "you have quite the sweetie there". I thanked her and said, "We are pretty lucky".
I do have pictures of the day, but lets face it, I'm beat! Pictures will just have to wait.

Lena Dunham: The Real Deal | The Notebook
Lena Dunham: The Real Deal
When the February issue of American Vogue hit the world’s newsstands last week, for once the cover was not what you would expect. Instead of a thin, bony and twig-like teenager staring blankly into the distance, the face of a real woman gazes out at the reader. Her wide, hazel doe eyes like molten pools of chocolate, her face lacking the gaunt, razor-sharp cheekbones that so often protrude through the glossy pages. But the real surprise comes when you flick to the middle. Because the editorial photographs display a woman with a full, wholesome body – thighs and all. A real woman. This woman is Lena Dunham, the up and coming creative talent who writes, directs and stars in the hit American T.V show, Girls. Dunham regularly champions the ‘real’ woman – recently when the size of her thighs were criticised, she retorted “Get used to it, because I am going to live to be 100, and I am going to show my thighs every day till I die”. Undeniably the words of a strong, proud and confident woman who will not be ruled by pressure to look a certain way. Even by not conforming to the super-skinny stereotype of actresses makes her a much-needed role-model for girls and women everywhere.
Ever since the birth of celebrity, women around the globe have been bombarded with a certain body-shape to desire; young models transformed by a mixture of diets, good genes and a heavy dose of retouching, pose on magazines, billboards and adverts. All of them evoking utter perfection. Impossible perfection. It’s amazing what you can achieve on Photoshop in this day and age.
Dunham dominating the Vogue cover makes a refreshing change. The photographs portray a woman who isn’t afraid to be curvy – she almost seems to say ” Yes I can eat what I want and still look hot in a Dolce & Gabbana dress.” Vogue undoubtedly saw the potential to rack up major trend credentials by having Dunham on the cover, as well as fighting off the constant criticism it receives about anorexic models. In my eyes this cover is like a revolution for women’s body image; showing the world that to be ‘in Vogue‘ you can be any size. Dunham is unquestionably the voice of a generation of young, liberated women.
However it is a sad and undeniable fact that many fashion glossies use Photoshop to physically enhance models – even Gisele Bundchen the goddess of Amazonian supermodels is retouched. But when we turn to Vogue do we expect to view reality? No, we expect to be transported into a couture clad, glamorously shimmering, high-fashion fantasy world. Yes Dunham’s photographs were slightly retouched, but only to make sure she looked her best. If I was on the cover of a top fashion magazine I would want at least a little Photoshopping – no woman is 100% confident in her appearance; we all want to change something. So when the feminist blog, Jezebel offered $10,000 for the un-retouched photographs of Dunham from the Annie Leibovitz shoot, it appeared to be a cruel (and very un-feminist) stunt to shame Dunham. The editor, Jessica Cohen, argued that on the contrary, they were trying to shame Vogue for trying to turn Dunham into something she’s not. Who wouldn’t want to be ‘improved’ just a little? Besides the thousands of viewers who watch Girls, get to see Dunham in all her un-retouched glory. Surely Jezebel and other critics should just stop obsessing over Dunham’s body and let her enjoy the power and pride of being a Vogue cover girl. Because no matter what, she is an inspiration to my generation for what she has achieved, not for what she looks like.

The Lemonade Stand: Screen Time
When I was a child, I was not allowed to watch television during the school week. Harsh and unfair as I felt my parents were, this rule gave me the opportunities to use my imagination to find games to play and nurture a love of reading and writing that I have carried with me to my adult life.
In the home that Dave and I now share, we have televisions in every room except the bathrooms and Dave's office. We each have our own laptop and desktop computer, plus a few others. And I know that there are days on the weekends when we will waste most of the morning and early afternoon hours with the television on, surfing the net. However, we are aware that time spent in front of the screen is not time spent "together," so we try not to let it get out of hand.
We have become a society that relies more and more on passive information and entertainment. Parents brag that their children can "pay attention" to the television for hours uninterrupted or that a handheld video game can act as a baby-sitter for the child.
How do people reach a happy medium? What is an acceptable amount of time to spend on these non-interactive activities in a day? Does it depend on what you are doing during the rest of your time to balance it out? How do you teach a child to reach out and relate to another person when all he or she is adults in front of a screen? I am not preaching... I am asking. What do you think?
Posted by Violet on 3/18/2007
I don't think my grandson gets to play his games at all during the school week - there's no time with homework, supper, shower, etc. Weekends I think he can watch cartoons, but just in the morning, then he has to find other toys (non-electronic) or play outside. I'm not sure, but he gets his Nintendo DS for 20 minutes (1/2 hour maybe) in the morning, and again afternoon...Seems to work for them.
I think most kids play to much on the computer and spend too much time in front of their tvs...they need to get outside, play with other kids, play in their rooms on their own and use their own imaginations sometimes.
We were never entertained by our parents and we were often "sent outside or in our rooms" just to get us out of their hair. I wish more parents were like that now...drives me nuts when I am visiting my friends and the entire time we are "entertaining their kids" as well.
3/18/2007 4:09 PM
Well, considering the question was posed to me via an Internet connection and computer screen...
I agree with mishka, especially the last paragraph. I devoted an entire post to that topic once and it was misconstrued as "I don't like kids and I'm tired of having to be around other people's kids all the time."
Strangely, although I had both a computer and a TV with a video game console in my room when I was growing up, I spent plenty of time reading or drawing or riding my bike outside without adult intervention. Maybe there was never anything good on?
3/19/2007 9:16 AM
I know I watched a dangerous amount of television as a kid, and I also know I learned a lot about a lot from doing it. But I remember we played outside more, because nothing was really "on." What's on after school now was our primetime. That's what made the afterschool special so...special. I think I'm with blakbyrd on this. Event TV was still in the minority. But really, kids would rather do something else besides TV; they just need the power of suggestion.
It's one of those things that we play by ear. If the kids are getting cranky and we notice they have been sitting in front of electronic devices too long they get kicked outside.
If they come home with a late slip for homework or I get a phone call from a principal then NO electronic devices until I get a good report.
Summer, rainy days I'm more lax, sunny days, they get kicked out about 1oam......just have to do what works for your family. Everyone's different....
3/20/2007 7:05 PM
Yes, television is the DEVIL.
I'd love to comment further, but TV Land is running a Jeffersons marathon...
haha ... laughing at Dave's comment above.
I don't know that there should be any steadfast rules or regulations on how much "together time" a couple really needs for a healthy relationship.
Ed and I have our own computers in two completely separate locations in the house ... we can't even see one another while we're online. Still, we cherish our little routine of quality surf and read time on our computers.
We each just seem to instinctively know when the other is ready to be a couple again. Neat stuff, really. Maybe it just takes time then falls into place naturally.

One of the best gifts we can give our children is to teach them how to pray.
One of the best things we can do with our children is pray.
One of the best things we can be "caught doing" is praying.

NEWS, December 7th: For the next 2 weekends we have 4 scheduled urban walks and they are all our wonderful Xmas walk in the small city of Alameda. It is scheduled 4 times so that we can do the Xmas walk one or more times even if bad weather forces us to cancel one or more of the walks. If we have to schedule 2 more walks we will probably reschedule 2 more on the weekend after Xmas.
Our "group photo" at the top left was taken at a recent walk, November 2nd, called "The Mosaic Stairway Walk (North of West Portal."
