The other week I went to N9ne steakhouse and had this AMAZING pan fried gnocchi with truffle cream sauce. Oh my god it was so perfect in texture and flavor that I couldn't stop thinking about it. I've read a lot of steamykitchen.com and remembered some lovely photos she had of some gnocchi she made, so i went there and ended up deciding to make her slow cooked salmon, with this recipe for a more traditional gnocchi and a poached pear dessert I made up.
The gnocchi was very yummy, minus the fact that i burned it. the texture was great and the citrust zest was so awesome. I just have to figure out how to fry it in the pan correctly. next time.
check out the beautiful ingredients that go into the gnocchi!
here are the cute lil gnocchis after you cut them out of the dough. so cute!
And here is the full meal: salmon sous-vide seasoned with salt, pepper, olive oil served with fresh mango salsa, pan fried citrus gnocchi with a lemon cream sauce, lightly sauteed baby bok choy with garlic. YUM! i cooked the salmon for 25 minutes but I think it could have stood another 5-10 min for my taste. the salmon was so juicy!
and now for the dessert! Poached pear with whipped honey marscapone cheese and chocolate sauce! MMMMMM sooo delicious.
Here's the recipe for this dessert:
2 ripe Pears peeled
cinnamon sticks
1/2 sweet white wine
1/2 marscapone cheese
1/4 honey
1/2 cup chocolate chips
1/4 cup butter
some heavy cream
1. heat up the wine, 1/2 cup water, cinnamon stick til boiling in a small pot with jsut enough room for the 2 pears. place the peeled pears in the pot and keep at a steady heat for about 25 min. remove from heat and set aside
2. whip the marscopone cheese and honey
3. heat up the chocolate chips and butter, stirring in some cream til theright consistency — pourable, but still thick
4. place the pear on a plate with a scoop of the whipped cheese and spoon some chocolate sauce over the pear.
MMMMMMMM sooo goood.
anyway, it was a lovely meal. i enjoyed it and i think he did too 🙂

Dreams of who I want to be. Dreams of what I want to do.
Not the dreams of others that impose false expectations onto me and cause me to project an incorrect image of myself. An image that's not me.
My true desires – they become a haunt when I stray too far away from my true self, into standards projected by others that don't fit everyone.
They haunt because I was losing myself and they are reminding me.
They are only haunting when I ignore them. When I ignore myself and only listen to others.
So I want to face my haunt.

Demonstration of attaching Broom Huggie to Kitchen Broom
The Broom Huggie is designed to fit most kitchen brooms. You can measure the width of your broom where the bristles attach. If the measurement is 11″ or less it should fit. Note: If the bristle width is wider where the bristles touch the floor the Broom Huggie should fit snug.
Sparkle Genie for Swiffer Sweeper / Vac / Trap
You can use both sides of the Sparkle Genie with these mop types. Some may find that the fuzzy side does not glide as easy as the non-fuzzy side. Simple wrap around the mop head and push material into the tension holes as show in the photo.
Sparkle Genie for Swiffer Wetjet
Attachment of the Sparkle Genie (Formerly Earthmop) to your Swiffer Wetjet relies upon the hook and loop fastner. Your Wetjet has the "Hook" on the mop surface and the Sparkle Genie "Fuzzy" side acts as the "Loop".
Simply place the Sparkle Genie "Fuzzy" side up and place Wetjet onto the pad. Take your fingers and run them along the mop surface to help the Hooks catch the Loops if you find the Sparkle Genie loose. We've found that the use of the mop and pad on the floor is usually enough for the Sparkle Genie pad to stick well to the WetJet. Note that our care label is on the Fuzzy side, so remember Label side up.

4. You don't really need it.
Yes, it's simple as that. Before you get angry and start wondering how does God know what you need, think about it: the Lord has a plan for each one of us. And you can be sure that His plan is much better than anything we can ever think of for ourselves. So when you pray for something material, for a new job or for something you may think of as a miracle, and that thing doesn't come true, there's a good reason for it.
For example, if you're praying to have a certain person in your life and he or she doesn't show up, there's a reason behind it. Maybe that person isn't meant to cross paths with you in the first place, or God has different plans for the two of you – better ones.
And the final reason is…

So this is what I did in the Easter holiday...instead of studying for college! Mais je ne regrette rien. I still have plenty of time to panic for the exams. ;-)
As a part of a late Christmas/Birthday present Mom gave me this course from Iron & fire: 5 days of traditional techniques by Sidi Hamed, Touareg silversmith from Niger (but living in Belgium). It was awesome.
It was an introductory course in which we'd see basic techniques, but at the end we had seen and practised forging, stamping and engraving and Sidi demonstrated the lost wax process.
So...Here are a few impressions.
|The set-up:
our sandbox :-D coal, bellows, some bricks as worktables,
little clay cups for melting silver, a long "gutter" to pour the molten silver in
We started the first day with this ring exercise:
|bottom: the silver bit we started out with
middle: along the process of hammering, hammering, hammering...
top: Sidi's model of a stamped an polished ring
I don't have many photos of my own projects -the bracelet and the pendant- because I was mainly working myself! But here is a series of photos of Sidi's lost wax casting demonstration of a Touareg cross:
|each tribe of the nomadic Touareg has their own cross
-from this inspiring book: Fastueuse Afrique by A. Fisher-
|wax model
|the wax model encapsuled in a clay mould
|when the clay mould had dried it was fired...
|...and the melting wax dripped away!
|pouring molten silver into the mould...
|...there. All done!
|after the mould had cooled and was removed, this was the result in silver;
a base form that with lots of hammering, filing, stamping and engraving
would look as intricate as one of the crosses from the book!
|I added the chain of "sticks" afterwards in the studio.
So much work has gone in this pendant, forming it by hammering
-lots of it-
filing, polishing
and then engraving...
I love the result. A wonderful memory!

Steps From Paris' World-Famous Attractions
Arc de Triomphe - This 164-foot, iconic monument is one of the must-see attractions in Paris. We climbed the 300-step spiral staircase to the top of the monument to spot the Avenue des Champs Elysees and Eiffel Tower as the sun set. After dark, the arch illuminates and the eternal flame is rekindled every evening.
Avenue des Champs Elysees - High-end shopping, restaurants, and gardens await on Paris' most scenic street, just a ten-minute walk from the hotel. Lined with trees and historically renowned for its exclusive stores, Avenue des Champs Elysees is now one of the most populated shopping meccas in the city. We recommend strolling down the avenue all the way to the Place de la Concorde, the largest public square in the city.
Tour Eiffel - A non-negotiable part of every Paris visit. Catch the Eiffel Tower around dusk to see it transform from its daytime elegance to a dazzling light show. Even better, make your way to the first floor of the tower to find 58 Tour Eiffel Restaurant to enjoy lunch or dinner while looking out over one of Europe's most romantic cities.
Parc Monceau - Let your artistic side run free when you walk through the gilded, wrought-iron gates into one of the most beautiful parks in Paris. View remnants of the past such as the Naumachie and 100-year-old trees. Stroll through the sculptures of Chopin and Maupassant, all right across the street from the hotel.

Starbucks has shifted the coffee world because they always do three things right: Clean bathrooms, Clean area to congregate, Consistent products. So, Starbucks gets a C+.
Why they don't get an A (although the health department might disagree with me) is that they kind of forgot something important about coffee. Coffee is great on its own. It is not supposed to be a carrier for flavorings. But, flavorings are where they make a ton of money.
My customers tell me that Starbucks coffee tastes like ash, it's bitter and over-roasted. Okay by us at Wicked Coffees, where we specialize in coffee that tastes consistently like coffee, without the need for flavorings or ash-coverups. Great coffee doesn't need flavoring to be amazing.
Share using the links below or this short url: http://wp.me/s1vObl-531
Would you like to hear about the latest development in coffee flavoring? It's gluten-free and more delicious than that word (gluten-free) allows. The company that developed this creates the flavorings without sugar, dairy, fat, wheat, rye, barley, soy, or traces of peanuts or tree nuts.
[leadplayer_vid id="5074BB44421FF"]
You can see that Inbru® is not your typical coffee flavoring. It's not like buying poor quality roasted coffee laced with excessive flavoring to cover up the poor coffee. It's not a creamer or syrup that puts too much, or too little, flavor with the carrier.
Inbru® is just easy. Put a few scoops in your coffee grounds right before you brew your pot. You get as much, or as nuanced, a flavor as you desire. We don't have to buy a full pound of flavored coffee that is just one flavor. With Inbru, we can have as many as 12 different flavors from that one bag of coffee, just by using a different Inbru® flavor each time we brew.
Danish Pastry flavor, without guilt or gluten, is easily a favorite. The calorie-free taste matches the taste profile of a select, fresh Danish. It's a remarkable experience we can all achieve in the comfort of your own kitchens.
OR for an evening cup of coffee after dinner, I recommend Irish Creme or Highlander Grogg, whiskey and rum flavored blends. I like them with cream instead of dessert! The flavored coffee is not so filling and it is a great, sweet finish to a delicious meal.
The 24 gram jars are enough to flavor 80 (six ounce) cups of coffee. Pick it up at Carlsbad Danish Bakery. Or go to Inbru.com for further information.


text: 16 August 2011Actress Gwyneth Paltrow has admitted that despite not wanting cosmetic surgery to keep the signs of ageing at bay, she would consider breast surgery. Speaking to OK! magazine, the 38-year-old said that cosmetic surgery is all about �vanity� but that she would consider breast uplift surgery.�Before I didn't care about it. But a breast correction after breast feeding � why not?� she said. In the same interview, Paltrow admitted that she seems to inspire women. �People come up to me and say, �I want to have two kids and wear a bathing suit and not feel terrible about myself. I see how hard you work and it makes me feel like I can do that too�,� she said. Paltrow is married to Coldplay frontman Chris Martin and the couple have two children, Apple, seven, and Moses, five. The actress is not alone in considering cosmetic surgery to regain her pre-baby figure. Recent research has shown that so-called �mummy makeovers� � which see new mums opting for a combination of procedures including liposuction and tummy tuck surgery � are a big growth area for the industry.

This is part of our ongoing The Best Kept Secrets to Healthy Aging spotlight. Each week, we will be posting some of the great information that's packed into our book, The Best Kept Secrets to Healthy Aging.
Today's topic:
Tips for Better Bone Building, Part 10: Soy Protein Isoflavones
Soy protein contains a set of phytochemicals called isoflavones. These phytonutrients are absorbed into the human blood stream and circulate to a variety of tissues where they interact with the processes regulating cell functions. One area of isoflavone biology that has received a great deal of attention is the support of bone health. Studies consistently show a beneficial effect of soy isoflavone consumption on human bone. The results of a hallmark randomized, placebo-controlled study demonstrated that several months of daily supplementation with 90 mg of soy isoflavones facilitated an increase in the bone mineral content and bone mineral density of the spine in postmenopausal women.17 In contrast, only 56 mg daily was not effective. Another randomized, placebo-controlled study showed that daily consumption of 80 mg of soy isoflavones for 6 months supported the density of vertebral bone in perimenopausal women.18 In confirmation of previous studies, two studies published recently demonstrated that less than 80 mg of soy isoflavones daily is ineffective in promoting bone health in postmenopausal women.19,20

By: Zack Pace, SVP, Benefits Consulting
Last week, Stephen Miller of SHRM interviewed me regarding the probable impact of the new FLSA overtime regulations on employee benefit eligibility terms. In short, I don't foresee a major impact. The resulting article is available, here: Overtime Pay Changes Will Affect Employee Benefits, Too.
On the other hand, as many of you have already fervently explained to me, the impact to cash compensation structures could be sweeping. Fortunately, my colleagues in CBIZ Compensation, Ed Rataj and Amber Duncan, have closely followed these proposed and final regulations since the beginning. Along with Karen McLeese, JD, they will share what they've learned and what to do next in upcoming webinars on:
- May 25th at 11:30 AM EDT
- June 14th at 11:30 AM EDT
Which date and time is more convenient for you?
Agenda for the webinar:
- Overview the new regulations
- Review the ramifications, potential unintended consequences, and long-term implications
- Discuss creative implementation strategies
- Review illustrative examples
The full invitation is available here: https://attendee.gotowebinar.com/rt/5803185362686746370
I hope you can join us.

The New York Times reports: Israel called on the United Nations Security Council on Monday to punish Iran for testing missiles capable of reaching Israel, which the Israelis said was a sign that the Iranians could not be trusted to honor the nuclear agreement reached last year.
"Iran's interests can no longer be hidden," the Israeli ambassador to the United Nations, Danny Danon, told reporters as the Council met in a private session, at the request of the United States, to discuss last week's missile tests.
Mr. Danon brought with him a photograph of an Iranian missile that appeared to be inscribed with the phrase "Israel must be wiped off the face of the earth" in Persian and Hebrew.
The provenance of that photograph, which appeared to be the same as one published by Iran's Fars news agency, has not been confirmed. Fars, which is associated with Iran's hard-line Islamic Revolutionary Guards Corps, has been known to digitally alter photographs of missiles, and other official Iranian news media have not disseminated the image.

The enduring appeal of valve, or vacuum tube, technology in professional music equipment such as guitar amplifiers has received a boost with the announcement from Orange Amplification of its Orange DIVO VT1000 Valve Tester.
Launched at this year's NAMM show, the major music technology trade event held in Anaheim, California, the compact VT1000 is a fully automatic valve tester which performs a wide range of tests. Users can quickly match and test valves and receive a reliable health check as to whether valves are good, bad or worn.
The world's first fully automatic, portable, digital valve tester, the VT1000 makes it easy to test amp valves and the user is not required to have any advanced understanding of valve theory. The unit can test the most popular power and pre-amp valves, with one octal and two nine pin valve sockets for different valve types.
The valve to be tested is inserted into the correct socket, the valve type is selected from the list printed on the unit and then the user presses the 'START' button to test the valve. Inside the device, a CPU-controlled testing system is in operation, allowing full control over all inter-electrode switching and measurement operations.
The results are displayed using LEDs and will test for a wide range of fault conditions, which could otherwise cause damage to other components in the electronic circuit.
The Divo VT1000 has been designed to help guitarists, rental companies, valve amp manufacturers, guitar techs and music equipment retail shops.

The Karen Armed forces have moved a step closer towards unification following a meeting between leaders from three major Karen armed groups.
In a meeting in Myawaddy Township on Tuesday the Karen National Liberation Army (KNLA), Democratic Karen Buddhist Army (DKBA) and the Karen National Union/Karen National Liberation Army-Peace Council (KNU/KNLA-PC) agreed in principle to unite their military forces into one coherent group.
Colonel Saw Roger Khin, officer in charge of the KNLA defense department told Mizzima, "There are more than three groups if we count all groups. All Karen armed forces are included. But yesterday only three groups were able to attend. We can conclude that all groups have agreed to form as one group in principle. The leading role is given to the KNU".
The Colonel added that although an agreement has been reached, "the reality is that it still remains impossible for all of the subordinate ground forces to join under the one banner of the KNU. They will still be with their own military camp within their areas of control".
The three militant groups were united as the KNU until 1994 when the organization splintered after disagreements over negotiations with the government.
The DKBA seceded from KNU in 1994. And KNU/KNLA-PC also seceded from KNU after the disagreement in the first set of negotiations between the KNU and the Government.
The KNU/KNLA-PC then followed suit and split from the KNU and signed a ceasefire agreement with the government.
The meeting at Myawaddy was led by Chief of Staff, General Saw Johnny from the KNU and attended by Brigadier General Kyaw Thet from the DKBA and from the KNU/ KNLA– PC, Saw Yin Nu.
The Kachin Independence Organization (KIO) and Ta'ang National Liberation Army (TNLA) have confirmed to Mizzima that a battle between their forces and the Myanmar army broke out on Tuesday and that the situation remains tense.
A KIO spokesman said that hostilities flared when government troops advanced on KIO 4th Division positions and a TNLA encampment in northern Shan State.
Kachin Battalion Commander Zaw Saing told Mizzima that government forces attacked them with heavy artillery.
He said the fighting took place near Phai Kaung in Pang Seng Township, Mone Goe Region, which is within KIO Battalion 36's area of responsibility.
Zaw Saing said that an exchange of fire recommenced on Wednesday, but to date no one has been killed. However, local residents told Mizzima that between three and five government soldiers perished in the battle.
Calling the Myanmar army's maneuver a "potential obstacle to peace," the Kachin commander said, "I think it is not right to allow troops to wander around in between the front-lines. We sighted no government columns on previous days. They suddenly appeared yesterday [Tuesday]."
Capt. Mine Bhone Kyaw, the general-secretary of the Palaung army, a close ally of the Kachin rebels, said that the battle lasted about an hour and involved about 700 soldiers from the government forces' 506 battalion.
On Tuesday, the same day that Myanmar President Thein Sein told an audience in London that "guns will go silent everywhere in Myanmar for the very first time in over 60 years," a ceasefire was broken between the Mon army and Myanmar's government forces.
According to Capt. Ta Mot Chen, the Myeik District Regional Commander of the New Mon State Party (NMSP), a short battle erupted between the NMSP and government forces battalion 581 on the morning of July 16.
It was the first reported outbreak of violence between the two sides since a ceasefire was signed 18 years ago.
The Mon captain said the skirmish only lasted a few minutes. However he confirmed that two NMSP soldiers were killed and that he believed the Myanmar army also suffered casualties.
Ta Mot Chan accused the Myanmar forces of initiating the hostilities, saying they opened fire on the two Mon soldiers who were on sentry duty.
A 1995 ceasefire agreement between the two sides was annulled in 2010 when the Mons refused to join the government's Border Guard Force initiative. However, new terms were renegotiated in February 2012 and a fresh ceasefire agreement was made.
Both the Wa and Myanmar armies have pulled back from their front line positions and the situation remains stable following negotiations on July 12, according to Sam Khun, the head of the external relations for the United Wa State Army (UWSA).
"To the best of my knowledge, both armies withdrew all troops from their previous encampments on July 13," he told Mizzima.
The move came a day after the UWSA had met government representatives led by Thein Zaw, the vice-chairman of the Union Peace Making Committee, in Kyaing Tone Township in Shan State.
Both sides also agreed to a 5-point plan aimed at continuing dialogue toward a peace process.
The Union Government and Wa Special Region (2) also agreed to cooperate in implementing a regional drug eradication policy.
The UWSA, the largest of all Myanmar's ethnic militias, signed a ceasefire agreement with the government in September 2011.
For more background:
88 Generation Students representative Ko Mya Aye said that his group discussed several political points when it met with the ethnic alliance, United Nationalities Federal Council(UNFC), on Sunday.
"It's impossible for our country to achieve peace solely through signing ceasefires," he told Mizzima. "The peace process will not move forward if we only focus on a military truce. During our discussions we collectively agreed that an accurate 'road map' must be laid out involving continuous political dialogue."
Ko Mya Aye said that he was satisfied with the discussions and that it was an honor to meet with the ethnic group leaders in the current climate of Myanmar politics.
"In my opinion, we all are walking on the same path," he said.
Sunday's meeting in Chiang Mai, northern Thailand, was attended by Lt-Gen. N'Ban La, the vice-chairman of the Kachin Independence Organisation, who is also chairman of the UNFC.
Meanwhile, plans are being laid to commemorate the 25thanniversary of the 8-8-88 peoples' uprising for democracy in 1988. A three-day event will be held—on August 6, 7 and 8—at the Myanmar Convention Center in Yangon. Various seminars and talks involving the peace process and national reconciliation are slated to be discussed.
The 88 Generation Students' group said it has invited representatives of the UNFC to the event, although it appears unlikely they will attend, according to UNFC spokesperson Naing Han Thar.
Campaigners for the draft proposal widely known in Myanmar as the 'Interfaith Marriage Law' have launched a petition in Yangon to collect the signatures of supporters.
The controversial draft law sets out to restrict Buddhist women in the country from marrying men of different faiths.
The campaign was launched on July 9 in North Okkalapa Township where proponents in trucks used loudspeakers to convey their ideals and played nationalistic music as they drove through the streets. Sermons by nationalist monk U Wirathu were also played.
Copies of the draft law were distributed, and Buddhist residents were encouraged to sign the petition.
"I signed after I read the proposal," said a trishaw driver. "Most of the people in our neighborhood signed it too."
Similar gatherings took place in Mingaladon, Hlaingtharyar and Ein Sein townships. Organizers went door to door to collect signatures and several township officers and firefighters were on hand to give assistance, said residents.
"The petition was all about supporting the Interfaith Marriage Law and organizers requested that we all sign it," said Ma May Thazin from Mingaladon. "Most people just signed out of a fear of offending."
She said that she refused to sign the petition because "a proposal submitted by Buddhist monks cannot be considered a law." She also criticized the proposal for focusing only on Buddhist women but not on men.
It was reported to Mizzima that similar petitions were also circulated outside the former capital in Mandalay, Taunggyi, Kalaw, Aungpan, Heho and Nyaungshwe.
The draft law was proposed at a June 12 press conference by Buddhist monks at the Saykeindarama Monastery in Hmawbi.
Ko Soe Wunna ,a member of a Buddhist youth funeral service organization, said that in North Okkalapa a total of 22,000 signatures had been collected, and that all the petitions would be presented to U Wirathu when he visits Yangon on July 19.

Amalfi has a lot of great restaurants, rancked by professionals and guides so, those listed below aren't the best ones but, are the ones I suggest to my guests when they ask me. They are simply where I like to have a dinner in Amalfi and I know that not everyone has the same preferences so, take care.
Lo Smeraldino.
From Pizza Flavio Gioia, go toward the big wharf, the restaurant is just the last one on your way.
Ask for a table outside, in the terrace on the sea and you will enjoy an unique night view of Amalfi with its lights reflecting in the water, boats in the harbour and, if you are lucky, the moon.

La Praia, the pretty beach of Praiano, is one of the most suggestive place on Amalfi Coast.
It's a little bay sorrounded by hundreds meters high rocks and cristal wather. That's it.
No shops, no banks, no groceries; only couple of small chacteristic restaurants with tables outside and boats floating on the sea. A dinner at "Armandino" it's a lovely experience.We like to go down to La Praia in the night even just to stay, drink a beer, watch at the people and the sea.
From the beach starts a narrow path cut in the rock, just on the sea, leading to "L'Africana", a night club entirely in a grotto. When I was young this rocky path was banned to me because it was dangerous to fall ... in love over there so, take care.
I'm not a disco fan now so, I like to stop half way at "Il Pirata" (/www.ristoranteilpirata.net). It's a relaxing, , restaurant and launge bar where it's great have a dinner or stay for a drink.
Cetara is a fishermen village where time stopped from the past. Nothing is changed and you'll enjoy this calm atmosphere where all goes slowly. A timeless place.
Walk down from the Coast along the street toward to sea, have an aperitif, a glass of wine or an ice cream at the small bars with tables outside, rest on the harbour.
Three restaurants:
Acqua Pazza with tables under the ancient cloister, traditional flavours with a polished chef touch.
Al Convento, San Pietro.
Youth love "La Cuopperia" also. It a small take away for fried fish and vegetables, "spaghetti alla colatura di alici", some good beer. You eat on self served tables outside.
Coming from Minori, don't miss a stop at "Delfino" on the Coast road at the beginnig of the village. Buy there local tuna and anchvy with olive oil.

CMS delays short-cycle dispensing rule
The agency also has eliminated a requirement that would have forced long-term care operators to return dispensed but unused drugs.
In addition, in response to providers' outcry that administering seven-day-or-shorter cycles would be too cumbersome and possibly more expensive, officials have extended the window for dispensing Medicare Part D-covered solid oral brand-name drugs to beneficiaries living in eldercare facilities to 14 days-or-less. Generic equivalents would not be applicable. The current window is 30 days.
Long-term care pharmacist associations hailed the moves but are still disappointed that the current window would narrow. They are calling for more research into the issues at hand, saying that proposed changes would likely prove more expensive than the current system and avoid far less waste than officials expect.
Providers had been pushing for a delay in implementation until Jan. 1, 2014.

what the heart wants
Sometimes, there is no bolt of lightening.
Sometimes, you just want to party with your friends (and your NY-residing-family).
Sometimes, you just get swept away.
*I was mainly compensated for this race entry by being a good daughter for the better part of 32 years, which I believe is far better than writing book reviews and pushing products for 8 cents a page view. The remainder of the race entry was funded by FINALLY getting a new job and selling things that we have decided we can do without. Other sacrifices have been and will continue to be made to pay the remainder of Graham's vet bills. All opinions are my own, but if you doubt that I have the greatest mom in the world, I will beat the living shit out of you.

Definitely :)Delete
Don't ever feel the need to explain.ReplyDelete
I thought you have to volunteer a year at LP before you can race it? See how I know nothing about this triathlon business?
Hot damn. Get it girl.ReplyDelete
Wahooooooooo! Love it!ReplyDelete
Wahooooooooo! Love it!ReplyDelete
I love you and your brass balls.ReplyDelete
That is all.
And... If anyone doubts that you ARE the greatest mamas in the world, I shall beat the shit out of them.ReplyDelete

Not that you needed the disclaimer, but I love it anyway. It never ceases to amaze me what people think is their business to judge.ReplyDelete
Race registration peer pressure is the bestest kind!ReplyDelete
LOL - "pushing products for 8 cents a page view" yeah some blogs are just getting ridiculous.
Congrats on the new job!
New job? Nice! Congratulations! And great moms are even better...ReplyDelete
That said, there is a pervasive air of IMLP peer pressure around the internets these days, ha ha ha!
Exciting! I can't think of a better way to pick than signing up for the race that all of your friends and training buddies are doing (hello, Richmond!).ReplyDelete
If I'm in Upstate at that time I'm coming to cheer you on.ReplyDelete
Congrats on the new job! And I wish I had tri friends like yours- they sound awesome.ReplyDeleteReplies
I'm lucky to have them!Delete
That is fantastic, congratulations! Now you're hooked. The fun thing is that IMLP is known as the hardest bike course in the US circuit. that's why I have and will pass on it. Good luck!ReplyDelete
Congrats on your race registration (you are badass), on Graham feeling better, on having great family and friends, on your new job, on life's ups and downs being handled with grace, and THANK YOU for loving your dogs. Piss on the negative people.ReplyDelete
Congrats on the job and the race! Looking forward to following your journey and seeing how it differs from IM #1!ReplyDelete
Ahh! So exciting!!!!!!ReplyDelete
And you don't owe any of those a-holes an explanation.
This cracked me up! Exactly how it happens. A big high five to your mom for being AWESOME!ReplyDelete
Looking forward to all your crazy iron man adventures. :) get it!!ReplyDelete
I have the most amazing parents in the world who also drop mad coin so I can keep playing in this amazing world of triathlon!ReplyDelete
congrats Katie!! IMLP :)
I may need to spectate or volunteer one of these times. I don't know that I have an IM in me, but I get chills thinking about spectating/supporting those who do.ReplyDelete
Congrats and happy training!
Nice caveat of "better part of 32 years" ;) hahaReplyDelete
Congrats on the new job!!!! Not sure most people would celebrate that fact with an Ironman, but you are not most people. You are better than most people!
And party with the sheep! Don't forget them.ReplyDelete
If I had read this first, I wouldn't have had to flaunt my geography skills (lack thereof). ;)
IMLP here you come.....but seriously we have to stop dodging each other and meet up. Enough of this non-sense....haha!ReplyDelete
OMG---those texts were AWESOME! I'm so jealous that you are doing IMLP next year. I really wanted to sign up for it. I live on the west coast and can't get any of my friends to sign up with me. I've done Canada and CDA...and doing AZ this year and all I've ever wanted to do was LP. Good luck...I'll get there one day!!ReplyDelete
I just did Lake Placid as a first timer this past weekend. You are going to LOVE it...the town is amazing and Mirror Lake is incredible. The bike course is gorgeous as is the run! Book your hotel now and do not stay at Northwoods Inn - I stayed there and it was a dump! Best Western is the best hotel and literally 10 feet from the swim start. Congrats on CDA - I was hanging on every word of your race report to see how it went and you rocked it. I also had foot issues...instead of broken glass it was like hot coals. I finished though!ReplyDelete
Still chasing the doubtful hope that I can snag a way in! Will know by this week :)ReplyDelete
That's such exciting news! Congrats on the new job, too. I would love to hear more about that.ReplyDelete

Hi there! Welcome to C Wagner Photography & Design! Thank you for choosing me to document you and your family's time together. Whether for a special milestone or just a hangout lifestyle session, I'm looking forward to our time together.
By now, I hope that you've had a chance to see some of my work and that maybe we have spoken or exchanged some emails prior to your consultation or session date.
You should know that as much as you have invested in your time, energy and money with my studio, I will invest that much and more with you in quality and service. I do like to think a wee bit outside of the box and my photography style is mostly unconventional and not your traditional style of photography. With that said, I do know how important it is to have some traditional posed images - some for you and your family to share and post online. But the most fun and the sweetest of images are the ones that you least expect and come out naturally when everyone is comfortable and having some fun. I will give slight direction when needed but for our time together, I will let things unfold as they are and capture your family as they are.
Please select the areas you'd like to have more info on by clicking on the orange title up at top. If you find that your question isn't answered here or if you have any ideas or concerns about anything at all, please do not hesitate to contact me!
If you have not received my invoice for our session, please contact me and I will re-send you an invoice and contract. Please make sure you have paid the non-refundable retainer fee AND signed your contract or completed your session agreement form, otherwise your session date is not reserved on my calendar. Thank you.
I look forward to meeting you and your family!

This is a creamy style potato salad, perfect to take along to summer BBQs.
Creamy Potato Salad Recipe Ingredients
- 1 x 2kg bag chat (baby/new) potatoes
- 4-6 rashers of bacon, chopped (depending on how much bacon you like)
- 2 stalks green spring onions (also known as shallots), finely sliced
- 200ml mayonnaise (either a good quality shop bought mayo or make it yourself)
- 1 heaped teaspoon seeded mustard
- Juice of 1/2 to 3/4 of a lemon
- 50g finely grated Parmesan cheese
Creamy Potato Salad Recipe Method
Place the potatoes in a large sauce pan and fill with water until the potatoes are only just covered. Bring to the boil and simmer for approximately 10 minutes until potatoes are tender (they should be able to be pierced with a fork easily, but not break apart). Remove from the heat, drain water and then put back on the heat for a few seconds to dry the potatoes. Remove from heat and allow to cool (so that you don't burn your hands when you touch them). Once cool to touch cut in half.
Fry the bacon in a frypan until crispy and drain on paper towel.
Combine mayonnaise, mustard, lemon juice and Parmesan cheese in a small jar or bowl. If the dressing looks too thick (it should be the consistency of very lightly whipped cream) add a little bit of water. Taste for seasoning and add salt and/or pepper if desired.
Combine potatoes, dressing and two thirds of the bacon and shallots in a large salad bowl. Scatter with
the remaining bacon and shallots and serve.

We broke for lunch, and after a brief visit from Buddy, a new dog friend, we resumed. Scott ran the second half, and we went through the french scene breakdown of The Odyssey. The focus of these workshops is to brainstorm ideas for using physicality for the more fantastical portions of the story of Ulysses's trip, rather than relying on props.
The combination of a cold space, creative people, and a little caffeine coursing through veins made this a very fruitful process.Here is Maria, as a goddess, descending:
The ideas at this workshop ran freely, and if this workshop is any indication, this production will be like none other.
p.s. Thanks to Nick, for the best upper body workout I've had in forever. What are your hourly rates for personal training?

People stop Rob Caudill in airports for autographs. They stare at him in restaurants. And when he struts on stage, women scream themselves hoarse. Why? Because Caudill is a dead-on Rod Stewart Impersonator.
He's got the high-definition jawline, the shock of spiky blonde hair, but most importantly, he has the nose. Vocally, his distinctive, naturally-raspy voice sounds like the legendary Stewart, and his range easily nails every high note from Stewart's younger days. So, it's no surprise this singer has carved out a career 'recreating' Rod Stewart. From kicking out soccer balls to spinning mic stands, to belting out all of Rod's greatest hits – Caudill's high energy show is a must-see event for people of all ages.
When Rob was just seventeen, people started telling him that he looked like Rod Stewart – a phrase Rob would hear repeatedly from almost everyone he met for the rest of his life. He began his musical career after graduating high school and moving to Memphis, TN to study music at MSU. While in Memphis, Rob began playing bass for local bands around town and doing session work.
As bass player for a band called "The Breaks" Caudill got his first major opportunity when they signed to RCA Records. The Breaks' first single, "She Wants You", was played in heavy rotation on MTV music television which caught the attention of Bugle Boy Clothing, who used The Breaks for their first commercial on MTV.
After a few years, The Breaks disbanded, so Rob put together a group called "The Willys" that included legendary guitarist Shawn Lane. They quickly became one of Memphis' hottest bands. Rob also began doing session work with Joe Walsh of the Eagles and jammed with many others such as John Entwhistle of the Who, along with members of Cheap Trick, Allman Brothers Band, Lynyrd Skynyrd, Survivor and Red Hot Chili Peppers just to name a few.
In 1996, he realized he couldn't escape the remarkable natural resemblance to Rod Stewart so he heeded the advice of Joe Walsh and began his tribute career. Rob put down his bass, bought some wild clothing and diligently studied lots of Rod's videos, vocals and mannerisms.
Now, more than a 15 years later, he is still spinning his mic stand and kicking soccer balls out to audiences everywhere.
When he leaves town he is armed with his "Tonight's the Night Band," a repertoire of more than 100 Stewart songs (covering everything from the beginning years of The Faces to the Great American Songbooks), and a wardrobe of loud, mostly custom made suits that match Rod Stewart's attire to a tee.
He has been working with the world famous Legends in Concert show out of Las Vegas for the past 15 years. He also works independently doing a high energy two hour show and claims "I've got the greatest job in the world, making a living doing something I love."

|The origins of L'Arte del Sandalo Caprese
L'Arte del Sandalo Caprese opened for business in 1958 at 75 Via Giuseppe Orlando in the delightful town centre of Anacapri.
Traditional Capri Sandals, comfortable and suitable for city streets but closely linked to the traditions of Ancient Rome, are distinguished by a heel with a maximum height of 1.5 cm, made by compressed layers of leather, with a steel insert and the addition of a non-slip rubber top lift.
Equally comfortable, elegant and sturdy in fact are his cork wedges, up to 7 cm high, or even heels, up to 5.5 cm high.

Sen. Mike Enzi, R-Wyo., the sole accountant in the Senate, is spearheading a bipartisan effort to block the proposal by the Financial Accounting Standards Board to require the expensing of stock options, claiming that it would harm the small business owner.Last week, FASB said that it would delay the implementation of its options expensing proposal by six months. However, Enzi's effort wants to derail the proposal entirely.In a statement, Enzi said, "FASB is right to slow down its stock option proposal, but a delay should occur because FASB is working to test the accuracy of the evaluation formulas, not because it wants to give companies more time to prepare for implementing a flawed proposal. The development of entrepreneurial companies and the small business community should not have to absorb the shock of a proposal that has not been thoroughly tested and could cause irreversible harm."Enzi has also voiced concerns that FASB's plans for estimating the value of options are inaccurate.Enzi earlier had offered up S. 1890 -- a bill requiring options expensing only for larger companies -- but that measure has met with a cold reception from colleagues such as Senate Banking Committee chair Richard Shelby, R-Ala., and Sen. Peter Fitzgerald, R-Ill.Meanwhile, in July, the House passed H.R. 3574, a diluted options expensing measure that requires companies to expense options given to the top five executives. Supporters of FASB's expensing plan are fearful that Enzi and like-minded allies will avail themselves of FASB's six-month delay to gather enough support to kill the proposal.
