When you need to find someone to babysit your children, or watch your dog for the weekend, or remodel your kitchen, what do you do? Do you just Google it and click on the first ad you see? Of course not! You seek out a recommendation from a family member, friend, coworker, neighbor…maybe even the guy at the grocery store checkout counter. Why? Because they've already vetted the solution. They've been there, done that. You know they have insights and knowledge to share with you, and most importantly, can give you advice on pitfalls to avoid. You know they'll be honest and only point you in a direction that will be helpful. Bottom line…because you TRUST your peer.
Can the same be said with marketing and sales messages these days. Research says no. And it kind of makes sense. Marketers and salespeople are paid to get you to take action and buy what they're offering. They have an "agenda" from the perspective of a buyer. But that doesn't mean the game is over or that Sales & Marketing should just pack up and go home. Heck no! It just means in order to gain the buyer's trust faster, more effectively and more persuasively, B2B sellers just need to change up their strategy a bit. It also means giving up some of the control and letting someone ELSE talk with your buyer: your happy customers.
Research has also shown when customer referrals, customer advocacy, and customer references are incorporated throughout the full spectrum of the B2B buyer's journey, buyer trust is built faster, your value message is received with higher credibility.

For this technique of interpretation it is necessary to have the necessary equipment: soundproof booths, microphone and headphones. Simultaneous interpretation requires great preparation and capacity by the interpreter, who tends to translate into their mother tongue. Also each interpreter runs the interpretation in no extensive intervals of time. It is the modality that is usually used at conferences, seminars, meetings of shareholders and other acts similar.
Consecutive interpretation: the speaker intervenes and is leaving time for the interpreter translate what was said. Is usually used in courses, conferences, inaugurations and other events where you can not resort to simultaneous interpretation.
Liaison interpreting: the interpreter serves as an intermediary between more than one person and not only translates to a speaker, but all participants (e.g. in a meeting involving several people). The interpreter is often a role of accompanying person, so it is often used in commercial missions, tours and visits to factories or other facilities.
Whispered interpreting (chuchotage): refers to those cases in which the interpreter translates whispered form and without a team for a small group of audience. A form of this interpretation is "chuchotage with Briefcase", i.e., when the interpreter translates into a portable microphone and listeners receive the interpretation through headphones portable.

After researching on many different sites and troubleshooting many different errors and show stoppers, I was finally able to piece together a Google Analytics plugin for my Cordova Android Netbeans project.
First, here is the location of the plugin we shall use today.
Cordova Android GAPlugin @ GIT
First I had to add the git location of the plugin to my projects nbproject/plugins.properties file. I made sure to add the org.apache.cordova.network-information, org.apache.cordova.geolocation, com.google.playservices, and finally the com.phonegap.plugins.gaplugin addresses. I also place the GAPlugin address at the bottom of the list in case there are some dependency issues associated with the plugin installations during the build.
I also, manually ran the install of the GAPlugin from the command line. I'm not sure if this makes a difference, yet better safe than sorry.
Also, edit platforms/android/AndroidManifest.xml and make sure that all the proper permissions are available in order for Google Analytics to make all the outbound calls it needs to.
In addition, edit the config.xml file and add the appropriate features associated with the GAPlugin installation.
Next, after verifying that the GAPlugin has been installed locate the intrinsic GAPlugin.js script file.
Copy that bad boy over to your project's Site Root in the location of your choice. I just popped it in the default Site Root/js directory.
Now that the files are in place, we need to load the GAPlugin.js file into our page. Since I will be calling the GAPlugin.js code from my own js/index.js file, I need to make sure that GAPlugin.js is loaded first. So, here is the order I put it in.
Now, let's look at
I took the basic index.js code that my initial NetBeans Cordova HTML5 project cam with and added the Google Analytics code to the
onDeviceReady routine. I added plenty of logging so I could tell from the Android emulator logs that the code is working and completing successfully with error.
var gaPlugin;
var app = {
// Application Constructor
initialize: function() {
// Bind Event Listeners
// Bind any events that are required on startup. Common events are:
// 'load', 'deviceready', 'offline', and 'online'.
bindEvents: function() {
document.addEventListener('deviceready', this.onDeviceReady, false);
// deviceready Event Handler
// The scope of 'this' is the event. In order to call the 'receivedEvent'
// function, we must explicity call 'app.receivedEvent(...);'
onDeviceReady: function() {
console.info("CALLING Gooble Analytics");
gaPlugin = window.plugins.gaPlugin;
console.log("CALLING INIT")
gaPlugin.init(successHandler, errorHandler, "UA-********-*", 1);
gaPlugin.trackPage( nativePluginResultHandler, nativePluginErrorHandler, "index.html");
gaPlugin.trackEvent( nativePluginResultHandler, nativePluginErrorHandler, "Button", "Click", "event only", 1);
gaPlugin.exit(nativePluginResultHandler, nativePluginErrorHandler);
function successHandler()
console.log("INIT SUCCESS");
function errorHandler()
console.log("INIT FAILED");
function nativePluginResultHandler()
console.log("TRACKING SUCCESS");
function nativePluginErrorHandler()
console.log("TRACKING FAILED");
Clean, Build, and Run the Cordova project. Verify that all the plugins have been installed and are available in the final deployment otherwise there will some Class Not Found errors.
Upon deployment the logs pumped out the info I was looking for.

Seeing that there were plenty of success messages. I immediately surfed over to Google Analytics and lo and behold I was amazed to see that my my mobile app in the android emulator had indeed been tracked as can be seen in my Google Analytics Real-Time DashBoard.
Well, it took a couple of days to get this far and I believe those are the steps involved. I blogged about it quickly so I wouldn't forget the finer points. After all, i will probably have to set up a new environment in the near future and instead of scanning through other blogs, GIT documentation, and stackoverflow.com I have put all that research into 1 place.
Now, time to figure out how to get the sinister Cordova Android AdMob/AdSense plugin working, LOL.

Keira Knightley is used to early wake-up calls. The actress has a penchant for period films, and it takes a while to get tied into a corset.
But on the set of the modern-day romance "Begin Again," the British star's call time was decidedly later than on "Anna Karenina" or "Pride & Prejudice."
"I'm so used to sitting in a chair for two hours getting my hair and makeup done," she said recently via telephone from the U.K., "but this time I turned up half an hour before I needed to start shooting and chucked my hair in a ponytail."
So yes, "Begin Again" allowed the 29-year-old a few more hours of shut-eye a night. But the movie, due out July 4, marked a more serious departure for Knightley as well: Not only does it take place in this decade, but she also sings in it.
FULL COVERAGE: Summer movie sneaks 2014
Directed by "Once" filmmaker John Carney, the film stars Knightley as an aspiring singer-songwriter living in New York City. After a bad breakup with her rock-star boyfriend (Maroon 5 frontman Adam Levine), she considers moving back to her native London until she runs into an A&R guy (Mark Ruffalo) who persuades her to stay to record an album in the Big Apple.

There are days when we are simply NOT "Parent of the Year" material!
Raising kids with LOVE ♦ February 22, 2013 ♦ Leave a comment
There are days that we are simply not "Parent of the Year" material, and that is OK!
Well…there are days when I deserve "Mom of the Year" awards and there are days when I don't. I still struggle at times with emotions and feelings when I question if I just parented correctly, even with semi-adult children! (I did say semi-adult :)) Yesterday was one of those days when I didn't say the right words, or at least I said too much. (Imagine that, I gave too much advice!) As I hung up the phone I had those feelings and emotions flood my heart that I have felt before…those "Wow that was a bad Mommy moment" feelings.
We talk a lot about how to help our children deal with emotions but don't often talk about how we can process emotions about parenting. There are days that we are simply tired, emotionally running on empty, and honestly frustrated as a parent. Some days it is difficult to respond to a tantrum effectively 10 times, clean up spilled food 5 times, battle with a poor napper, stay inside another day because of the weather and keep it together as a Mom. Sometimes it is just difficult to parent in a calm and thoughtful way. There were some days when the four kids were little that I just looked to the next day to "start over and be a better Mom" because my day had not evolved as I had envisioned. I had only been able to barely hold on to the basics of parenting and had looked forward to tucking all four into bed that night. I had not been a great Mommy….but in actuality I had been a "good enough" Mommy.
We have to understand that there are days like these. Days that we will make mistakes and days that we love our kids but feel totally overwhelmed with their needs and we may not like parenting at that moment. At those moments, we must handle those feelings without beating ourselves up. The more guilt we feel, the more the parenting tasks seem to take their toll on us emotionally. A parent who is in a "I am a bad Mommy" cycle struggles to parent effectively because guilt gets in the way. When we have these kinds of days we need to be gentle, patient and forgiving to ourselves. When we are nurturing to ourselves we are more likely to break the cycle of that bad day. Having bad parenting days is a part of life. It is OK for our kids to see that there are days when everyone is simply out of synch.
- Share with your kids that, "Wow, Mommy is having a bad day…everyone has those every once in a while. What can we do to make this day better?" Isn't that a great lesson for your child to learn…life has days that aren't perfect and we can work to make it a better day!
- Change up your routine that day….take a break. Take everyone for a long walk, forget about the laundry and dishes, or turn on the TV (Did she just say that? 🙂) for 30 minutes and sit mindlessly while your child is entertained…sometimes that little break may reset your day.'
- Say "I'm sorry". There are days when we all are a bit short-tempered, say the wrong things, or react in a less than perfect way. Saying "I'm sorry" teaches your child that no one is perfect, and that you respect them enough to apologize.
Remember, parenting is a process; one day does not define you as a parent. It is the culmination of countless parenting moments that raises a child. We all need to give ourselves a break, be accepting of our parenting bloopers, and move on to the next moment. So…I am moving on from my not so great "Mom moment" yesterday, and remembering that good days and not so good days are all part of the process, and even those not so good days have lessons for you and your child. Enjoy today…after all it is Friday, and I don't think Friday can ever be a bad day! TGIF!
Take a breath, enjoy the joyful moments of each day, and remember you don't have to be perfect to be the perfect parent.

Why Tennessee's curious status as a large Outback Bowl favorite holds merit
Some Vegas insiders have the Volunteers installed as 8 1/2-point favorites; others are willing to stretch that figure a half-point higher.
Either way, it's fair to wonder if the seismic gap between an 8-4 club (as the favorite) and a 10-2 squad doesn't entail an SEC or Big Ten bias … but more of a national condemnation of Northwestern?
Yes, the Wildcats stealthily rank seventh nationally in total defense, 11th in total defense and 12th in red-zone defense. However, their two seasonal losses to Michigan and Iowa (on consecutive Saturdays) had a composite score of 78-10.
Plus, for this century, Northwestern has a woeful 1-7 record in bowl action, with only two defeats featuring a spread of six or fewer points.
Here's another reason to believe the Vegas number-crunchers: Of Tennessee's six regular-season opponents currently listed in the top 30 for scoring defense — Alabama, Missouri, Florida, UGA, Oklahoma, Vanderbilt — the Volunteers impressively averaged 29.2 points per game.
Now, compare that 29.2 to Northwestern reaching the 30-point barrier only twice this season … and perhaps Tennessee should be favored by double digits?
Of course, an ardent Wildcats supporter would cite their school's crucial victories over Stanford, Duke, Nebraska, Penn State and Wisconsin as tangible proof of a bowl celebration.
They might also ask, with a hint of derision, What has Tennessee done of great consequence this season — aside from squandering late leads to Oklahoma, Florida and Alabama … and rallying to beat an under-whelming UGA team?
The golden rule: When in doubt with unfamiliar foes, always follow the team that knows how to score.

December 2010 - DEDEAUX PROPERTIES PROJECT 100% STABILIZED
City of Industry, CA -
Dedeaux Properties LLC (www.dedeauxproperties.com) has leased
the last of 4 units at their recently completed 71,460 sq. ft. multi-tenant industrial building in
City of Industry. Tenant JBC Safety Plastics, Inc. will occupy the 16,694 SF space beginning
December 2010 with a 65 month lease deal valued at over $726,000. The tenant was represented
by Sam Chu of CB Richard Ellis.
"Building a speculative multi-tenant industrial facility in 2009 definitely required
a thorough analysis of the market fundamentals by our team. We determined that
quality, well-designed product at a prime location in the solid San Gabriel Valley
sub-market would still perform strongly in a down market while taking advantage
of low construction costs. The lease of the final unit validated our strategy,"
according to Brett Dedeaux.
Dedeaux Properties is currently pursuing additional industrial acquisition and
development opportunities.
Headquartered in Philadelphia and Los Angeles, Binswanger / Realty Advisory Group is
an international, full-service real estate organization with over 160 offices worldwide
throughout the U.S., Canada, Mexico and South America, the U.K. and Europe, the

Group serves its clients directly from U.S. and international offices with acquisition and
disposition, property marketing, property management, appraisal, construction

Holiday Direct (Int) Ltd, based in Bredbury, used hard-sell presentations to get couples to sign up to deals after promising them free holidays.
But some customers later discovered their costly lifetime membership got them little or no discount compared with high street tour operator's prices.
Now the company has gone into voluntary liquidation, leaving those stung by Holiday Direct unsure whether they will get their cash back.
One man, who did not want to be named, handed over £3,895 after a two hour intensive slide show from the company. Luckily, his credit card company managed to refund most of his money.
He said: "Holiday Direct are an absolute disgrace.
"It all started when I completed a questionnaire during a flight.
"Then we got this phone call saying we had won a free holiday to anywhere we chose. All we had to do was attend a presentation at Bredbury Business Park to get the prize."
When the man attended the weekend presentation, he and his wife were told Holiday Direct were the biggest holiday discount company in the world.
They said if he joined up he would receive between 40 to 60 per cent discounts on Thompson, First Choice and Kuoni holidays and ten to 15 per cent off flight prices.
But to get these discounts he would have to sign up on the spot.
The man joined, thinking his discounts would also apply to his family and friends.
Yet when he asked about booking his dream discounted trips, the price cuts were not what he expected.
He said: "I asked about flights to Turkey, and all they could come up with was a price that was five per cent more than one I could get from a discount flight operator and it didn't include an in-flight meal.
"Then I asked about a First Choice fortnight holiday for four to Majorca and was offered a 20 per cent discount.
"But my daughter told me First Choice offered a 20 per cent discount to people who ordered direct anyway, so the Holiday Direct discount was nothing.
"I paid by credit card, but if I'd given them a cheque I would have almost certainly got no money back."
A spokesman from Stockport Trading Standards said: "We have had dozens of complaints about Holiday Direct (Int) Ltd, also known as Firesafe Services Ltd.
"We are uncertain whether this company is an agent or not, and that will be a deciding factor as to whether people can get their money back.
"They don't seem to have broken the law - the presentations get people in a vulnerable situation away from their own home and lead them to expect more than what is being said."
If you have made a payment to Holiday Direct (Int) Ltd you can contact Insolvency Practitioner Robert Cooksey by writing to: Bridgestones, Oldham Business Centre, Cromwell Street, Oldham, OL1 1BB.

Dear Thomas
This month you have been really exerting your new found independence and your feisty personality, little man. You know exactly what you want (usually snacks) and if you don't get it you've been treating us to some shocking temper tantrums. As in, lying on the floor, beating your fists and your feet. Fortunately you're still easily distracted at this stage, so it doesn't last long, but I feel like you're giving us a glimpse of what might be to come! For the last couple of weeks being asked to put your coat on and trying to put you in your pushchair or car seat have been the greatest sources of these tantrums, and I'm sorry to say I've had to resort to using my knee to get you in the buggy! You always calm down as soon as the straps are fastened though, and look all innocent as you hadn't moment before been having a total meltdown!
Despite your growing independence, you've also developed a clingy streak. Sometimes when you don't want to be put down you wrap your legs around my leg and hang on. And we've also had a couple of crying spells when I leave you at nursery, which we've never had before. Mostly you're still outgoing, confident and the smiliest child I've ever known though, and if I'm honest I like to know that sometimes you just want me.
You've become more physically confident in the last few weeks. You've begun climbing things and exploring. You had your second proper experience of soft play (a birthday party) and there was no stopping you racing off to explore. You want to walk everywhere, and even hills are no challenge now. We finally got you to stay happily of reins during a trip to Ikea, and you've given in to it several times since, which makes our lives much easier. At long last you have also mastered coming down the stairs safely. Not that you have any sense of danger, of course. And your brakes seem a little faulty given the number of times you've run headlong in to the edge of the sofa – and you've had the bumps and bruises to prove it!
This month has been full of new experiences for you. For the first time you joined in with the birthday tea at a party, sitting on a big chair and eating sandwiches, cake and ice cream. You've also started to have your very own children's meals in restaurants. Your very first meal was sausage, mashed potato and bean, followed by chocolate ice cream and the whole lot disappeared much faster than our meals! You've also had your first trips to the farm, and to the zoo, both of which you seemed to love judging by the grins and giggles.
This month has also seen a change in your sleep habits. When we put you down you no longer roll straight over to go to sleep, but are contented to lie in your cot quietly chattering to yourself, and occasionally singing, until you fall asleep. It's so calm compared to the fraught bedtime rituals of the past. In the morning you've started waking a little later and again you are happy to lie in your cot amusing yourself with your own conversation for up to 45 minutes until we get up with you. This is something that mummy and daddy are appreciating very much!
Speaking of speech – well, you never shut up! From the moment you wake there is a near constant stream of chatter and babble coming from you, which is so lovely to hear. There have been lots of new words and even some two word phrases this month, the most notable of which is "Happy Birthday!" and "I want that". You say "Hiya" and "Bie bie bie" (accompanied by enthusiastic waving) to everyone you meet, including strangers on the street, who almost always reward you with a smile. You also go to the front door several times each day and shout "bie bie bie" loudly! You say "Oooooo" frequently, with a lovely accompanying facial expression of pursed lips and raised eyebrows. Whenever there is a noise such as the timer on the oven, the beeps to signify the washing machine has ended, or the doorbell ringing, you shout "Oooooooo" and run off to investigate. You are even smart enough to know how to silence all the kitchen related beeps! Similarly food is met with "Mmmmmmmmmm". As you were served your meal in a restaurant you declared "Mmmmmmmmmm" so enthusiastically that the waiter laughed!
"Tea tea tea" is a new one, which you proclaim whenever daddy is making tea, but also when you bring us the box which contains your tea set. You them set about "making" cups of tea and offering them to us shouting "tea tea tea". And the letter "b" features a lot. You demand your bubbles at bath time by saying "bubububbub" or "bee bee bee". You say "booo" when we pull clothes over your head. You say "beep beep" frequently, usually when you want us to get out of the way! I think your Daddy taught you this one when trying to shuffle you out of the way to open doors, but it is also possible that you are now associating "beep beep" with doors!
Somehow you've learned to say "Ta", meaning "thank you" when someone gives you something. As we never use "ta" we think you may have learned this at nursery, but it is super cute. You've also learned to say "ta-da" but you don't get the element of surprise, so you just hold something up and say "ta-da". You think it is the funniest thing when I hide behind a door and leap out saying "ta-da" though.
Animal noises remain popular and the noise of the month has been "oooo oooo oooo" for a monkey. You still love to sing and you manage recognisable renditions of "Twinkle Twinkle", "The Wheels on the Bus" and "Row Row Row". If no one is available to row, row, row with you, you'll just push an inanimate object back and forth instead!
You definitely understand much, much more than you can say. You follow instructions, like "bring me your shoes" and "find your spoon" or "close the door". You also understand the concept of "more" although you can't say it. If you bring me your empty milk cup and I ask "do you want some more?" you'll go to the fridge and wait patiently until I've topped it up, which is a far cry from a couple of weeks ago when you would scream if I took your cup away, even if it was empty).
You also do this cute thing now where you tidy up as you go along. You will take my empty cereal bowl from me in the morning and put it on the table. You will make sure you place your cup neatly on a coaster on the table. If given a wipe, you will start wiping the table. If you spill milk on the floor and I ask you to "wipe it up" you will do it, if not very effectively! Your other obsession is turning lights on and off, and you will stand and do it for hours, even if we only ask you to turn the light off once!
I love that you are turning in to such a little character. I'm also loving the stage you are entering where you can get so much enjoyment out of so many things. You love days out, and interact and engage with what we are doing. We had our first messy play afternoon at home, with water, bubbles and food colouring. We cooked together for the first time – making rock cakes. You tipped all the ingredients in to the big bowl and stirred them around, which stirred my heart up more than you will ever know.
Most of all though, I love that you love me, and know how to show it. Last weekend we were all sitting playing on the floor. Without warning, you dropped what you were doing and ran to me with your arms outstretched. You gave me a proper hug and a big, sloppy kiss.
I'm your soppy sentimental mum, so I may have cried.
Just know that I love you always. To the moon and back and then some.

Hot cross buns (and maybe chocolate) are what Easter is all about but, lets face it, theyre not the healthiest of snacks. So, I developed this delicious loaf to mean that people could have their cake, and eat it.
Serves 10
Preparation time 10 minutes
Cooking time 40 minutes
- 100ml of egg whites,
- 1 whole egg,
- 50g of vanilla or unflavoured protein,
- 25g of sweetener of choice,
- 50g of flour (I used Quinoa flour),
- 35g of Coconut flour,
- 25g of nut butter (I used almond),
- 100g of apple puree,
- 100ml of coconut milk,
- ½ a teaspoon of baking powder,
- 100g of dried mixed fruit.
For the topping:
- 75ml of water,
- 30g of casein protein,
- 30g of Sukrin Sugar free icing sugar.
1. Line and grease a loaf tin and preheat your oven to 160C,
2. Mix together all of the cake ingredients; making sure to mix them well!
3. Pour the mix in to the tin and pop in to the oven for 30 minutes.
4. Take the cake out of the oven and out of the tin before placing on a cooling rack until it has cooled completely.
5. Now to make the icing; simply mix all of the icing ingredients together and spread over the loaf in a cross shape!

Company Announcement
When a company announces a recall, market withdrawal, or safety alert, the FDA posts the company's announcement as a public service. FDA does not endorse either the product or the company.
Fresh Express Announces Precautionary Recall of a Limited Quantity of 9 oz. Hearts of Romaine Salad Due to Possible Allergen Exposure
For Immediate Release
December 21, 2016

Fresh Express Hearts of Romaine Salad, distributed in Maryland with Product Codes of H34711A or H34711B and Use-By Date of December 27, due to possible exposure to undeclared allergens (egg, milk, wheat, and anchovy). Fresh Express representatives are coordinating with retailers to ensure the recalled product is removed from store shelves.
No illnesses are reported. No other Fresh Express products are included in this recall.

To safeguard the health and wellbeing of consumers, Fresh Express is voluntarily recalling product that could mistakenly contain a condiment packet during this isolated incident. In some individuals, the consumption of an undisclosed allergen could be life-threatening.
Fresh Express takes all matters of food safety very seriously, including the issue of allergens. Company procedures and programs stringently follow all mandated regulations and focus on preventive measures designed to minimize potential risks. Fresh Express is coordinating closely with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration and is conducting a full investigation into this isolated event.

LaVerne Sophia (b 6 July 1915; d 8 May 1967), Maxene Angelyn (b 3 January 1916; d 21 October 1995) and Patricia Marie 'Patty' Andrews (b 16 February 1920; d 30 January 2013), who sang lead. They went on the RKO theatre circuit c.1931 in a show with 55 people, learned a lot and decided to stick with it. Maxene sang high harmony, LaVerne was a contralto. Their first record was 'Why Talk About Love?'/'A Simple Melody' '37; then they struck it rich with 'Bei Mir Bist Du Schön' (in German).
The song was originally 'Bei Mir Bistu Shein' in Yiddish ('To Me You're Beautiful'), written by Solomon Secunda and Jacob Jacobs for their show I Would If I Could (in Yiddish it was Men Ken Lebn Nor Men Lost Nisht, or 'You Could Live, But They Won't Let You'). There is a story that a black duo called Johnny and George sang the song at a resort in the Catskills, then took it to the Apollo Theatre, where it was heard by songwriters Sammy Cahn and Saul Chaplin, but nobody has been able to find out anything about Johnny and George, who may be apocryphal. Cahn and Chaplin bought the publishing rights to the song for $30, and Jacobs and Secunda probably thought nothing of it; like a lot of songwriters, they sold a lot of songs in order to eat. Cahn and Chaplin translated the words and it became one of the biggest hit songs of the era. The authors allegedly got their rights back in 1961.
The Andrews Sisters took up where the Boswell Sisters left off and became the biggest girl group ever, said to have sold 60 million records. Big hits included 'Pistol Packin' Mama' '43 (with Bing Crosby), 'Rum and Coca Cola' '44 (considered sexy at the time), 'Don't Fence Me In' '44 and 'South America, Take It Away' '46, (both with Bing), 'Winter Wonderland' '47 (with Guy Lombardo). Many other hits with Decca artists Danny Kaye, Judy Garland, Les Paul, Russ Morgan, Carmen Miranda, even Ernest Tubb; on their own they cashed in on the boogie-woogie fad with 'Rhumboogie', 'Beat Me Daddy Eight To The Bar', etc. They appeared in over 20 films as themselves, including Buck Privates and Hold That Ghost '41 with Abbott and Costello, Hollywood Canteen '44, Road To Rio '47 (with Crosby and Bob Hope). Their sound, along with that of Glenn Miller and Vera Lynn, causes wartime nostalgia for millions; like Miller, they had hits with chestnuts ('Beer Barrel Polka') and covers of hits by others: Fats Waller's 'Hold Tight', Orin Tucker's 'Oh Johnny'.
They quarrelled a lot, right up until the end, perhaps partly because fans would not allow them to exist separately; "We weren't glued togather," Patty said later. She recorded on her own '49-50 with Crosby, Gordon Jenkins, Victor Young; Maxene also went solo, but they continued singing together until LaVerne's death. Patty appeared in film The Phynx '69 and in a West Coast musical called Victory Canteen '72, set during WWII. Bette Midler's hit 'Boogie Woogie Bugle Boy' '73 was a cover of theirs, and led to Patty and Maxene singing together for the last time on Broadway: Victory Canteen was rewritten and became Over Here '74-5, but they quarrelled over money with the producers and with each other, the show ran less than a year and a national tour was cancelled. The sisters were never reconciled.
Maxene became Dean of Women at Tahoe Paradise College in Nevada, teaching speech and drama, had a heart attack '82, then a bypass operation; and made a solo album '85 arranged by Arnold Goland. Midler wrote a sleeve note for Maxene on the Bainridge label, the album including a medley of the sisters' hits, and new songs, e.g. 'I Suppose', written by Nancy Goland. Maxene appeared in a touring production of Follies '95, a trouper till the end. Patty was married twice: her first husband was wannabe Hollywood bigshot Marty Melcher; this lasted only two years, and Melcher later married Doris Day and wrought havoc on her career. Patty's second marriage, to Wally Weschler, who had been the sisters' pianist and conductor, lasted nearly 50 years until his death.

Changes in Leadership Approved by the Board of Trustees
Mount St. Mary's University Changes in Leadership Approved by the Board of Trustees
Mount St. Mary's University Board of Trustees has named Mary Kane, C'84, as the first female chair of the Board at a historic meeting on March 14, effective immediately. The board also extended the term of acting president Karl Einolf through the end of June 2016.
"Leading the board during this historic moment in the Mount's history is an honor," said Chair Mary Kane. "I have maintained my involvement with my alma mater, because I want current and future generations of students to experience what makes the Mount so special. Though I have traveled much, the Mount is my home. Its faith-filled campus and mission to educate our future leaders in the Catholic tradition inspires me. I look forward to providing guidance to maximize the Mount's strong future and implement Mount 2.0."
The board's unanimous vote naming Kane as chair comes after John Coyne, C'77, concluded his appointment as board chairman. He became chair in February, 2014 and his term was scheduled to expire in October. "On behalf of the entire Mount community, I want to thank Chairman Coyne for his near decade of leadership and contributions to the Mount's past, present and future," Kane said.
"As my term as chair is nearing an end, I felt that stepping aside now would ensure a seamless transition to naming an interim president. It's important for a new president to have a chair of the board at their side, not only at the outset of the process but throughout the entire transition period," said Coyne.
Kane graduated from the Mount in 1984 where she majored in business and finance. She earned her law degree from Catholic University of America's Columbus School of Law in Washington, D.C. Presently Kane is president and CEO of Sister Cities International, where she leads the membership, youth education, development, and advocacy programs to strengthen the Sister City network around the world.
Prior to joining Sister Cities International, Kane was an Executive Director with the U.S. Chamber of Commerce, where she was responsible for identifying and building business partnerships and strategic alliances for the Chamber. Before joining the Chamber, Kane was the Secretary of State of Maryland and a former assistant state's attorney. Kane serves on several boards, including Suburban Hospital – a member of Johns Hopkins Medicine.
In addition to the board chair transition, the board extended the duration of Karl Einolf's position as acting president through the end of the current fiscal year. Dr. Einolf, the dean of the Richard J. Bolte, Sr. School of Business, was originally named acting president by the board on February 29.
The board of trustees' next step in its presidential transition plan will include the selection of an interim president for the 2016-2017 academic year. The selection and announcement will occur in the coming months in accordance with the governing documents of the university.
Until an interim is named, Dr. Einolf pledges his commitment to serving as acting president and says, "Over the next few months we will continue our current efforts with Mount 2.0 and continue moving the Mount Community forward."

The Breaker Volume One Review [Manga]
Editors Note: We have been getting a lot of requests to cover a bit more than gadgets on the blog, with a wide range of suggestions ranging from the ridiculous, (Gossip and Political news "from a tech angle"–whatever that means) to sports. One of the recurring suggestions have been comics, Anime and Manga series, and we think it does make sense as those are areas that intersect with tech and a techie's life more often than not. So here is a sneak peek of what you should expect in the coming year under the new section. Lets us know what you think!
At present interest in Japanese comics, also called Manga, is at best a niche hobby. They contain fantastical settings, characters that are way out there, and plot points that either have you scratching your head or risk a brain aneurysm at the complexity of it all. In short they are just weird but that is part of their charm in my opinion. The shounen genre is a great gateway into manga, which is why most have heard whispers of Bleach or Naruto. I recently got a recommendation to check out a title, not out of Japan, but from Korea, they are called Manwha over there. They differ, mostly on cultural references but the feel is familiar. This is the Breaker!!
The Breaker is a Korean Manwha written by Jeon Keuk-Jin and illustrated by Park Jin-Hwan under the name Kamaro. The series was serialized in Young Champ's magazine between 2007 and 2010 and it must have done well because its sequel "The Breaker – New Waves" is currently ongoing on Daum Communications' online comic portal.
The story of The Breaker follows Shi-Woon Yi, a timid high school freshman at Nine Dragons High School, who in common fashion for the genre gets bullied constantly. As expected he's comes off as weak, cowardly and totally clueless on what to do about his situation. He's basically at his breaking point!
Enter Chun-Woo Han, a substitute teacher who's unorthodox, to say the least. He's generally laid back, a brash womanizer, very unprofessional and doesn't command any sense of respect from his students. He takes a marginal interest in Shi-woon's predicament, meaning he ridicules him.
As fate would have it, on the night of their first meet, Shi-woon would come across his teacher about to be pummelled by some undesirable elements only to bear witness to Chun-woo's superb fighting prowess. Seems everything we've seen from him at that point might have been an act, maybe not the womanizing part. Ends up that Chun-Woo Han is a member of the secret martial arts world of Murim and has earned the title of Goomoonryong and is regarded to be the strongest martial artist under the heavens.
After unwittingly saving his student from a probable suicide, Chun-woo gets a request from Shi-woon to take him on as a martial arts disciple. To the point of blackmailing him with a video of his fight. He sees the highschooler as a constant annoyance but after several incidents to show his resolve, including jumping off a bridge, he agrees to train him.
But it seems Chun-woo's tenure as a teacher is merely a cover for a very important mission given him by his Elder. Add to the fact that he becomes a suspect in the death of a prominent master and maybe he's under protective custody. Either way it makes for an interesting turn in the plot.
Now the main story of The Breaker isn't something new, in fact we've seen this plenty of times. From story like the Karate Kid or the manga Kenichi World's Strongest Disciple, just to mention a few. It's basically the story of an underdog who goes under the wing of a professional to train him to become a better person. What differs in my opinion is that it seems the center a lot on the teacher (Chun-woo Han) and not as much on the student (Shi-woon). But being an introductory volume, it would make sense to focus on the more interesting character, all Shi-woon seems to do is get bullied a lot. The first volume does a good job of introducing the characters that matter as well as making us familiar with their personalities. The story progresses quite well, there is great exposition of future events and the ending is quite something.
First thing I noticed about Park's art is the um….. ah…. curves? Now, I'm not against fan service, far from it. Done right it gets my stamp of approval. But as a lead in to a series it could leave the wrong impression. At first glance one could mistake the Breaker for an Ecchi series, with some awesome fights in it. The ladies are drawn like runway supermodels, even Shi-woon's mom who's probably intended to be drawn plain looks like she might take off her glasses and spin to do a wonder woman transformation for all we know.
That being said, the art is beautifully done. The breaker is a visual feast, with great composition and very smooth panel transition. Even during fights it is very easy to follow the action sequences which can be difficult to pull off in the martial arts genre.
Facial expressions show a great range of emotions, from Chun-woo's indifference, to Shi-woon's helplessness and even the sinister glare from his bullies are well communicated. The eyes do tend to look very cat like at times though! One of the things I like is the shift to chibi style art used to express comedic moments. This almost borders on self parody and shows how the series is unashamed of its very juvenile tendencies. While this aspect could potentially distract from the more serious moments, they definitely earn a few chuckles here and there. I mean look at Shi-woon's perception of Chun-woo's fight in contrast to how it really happens.
Based on the first volume, I'd say the breaker is a coming of age story, if it didn't focus too much on Chun-woo, but with the whole bullied weakling overcoming his shortcomings and becoming stronger theme it seems to have built up it can't be anything but. Shi-woon is about to enter a hidden world of martial art and be taught by the best. He'll face many trials and probably find himself wanting in a lot of them. Will he eventually triumph over the tribulations of high school life, what kind of trouble is Chun-woo hiding from or bringing along with him and how will his new disciple be swept of in it?
Check it out and you might find out in future volumes.
Here's my video review of The Breaker Volume One for you to check out:

How Do You Recharge?
Sometimes, we all need a little time to recharge. We each have our own way of doing that. Sometimes we do it alone. Other times we call upon our friends and loved ones to help us recharge our batteries. In Sylvia Day's Reflected in You, Eva recharges with her best friend, Cary.
"But mostly I thought Cary and I needed to spend some quality downtime together. We hasn't been living in Manhattan long. It was a new town for us, new apartment, new jobs and experiences, new boyfriends for both of us. We were out of our element and struggling, and since we both had barge loads of baggage from our past, we didn't handle struggling well. Usually we leaned on each other for balance, but we hadn't had much time for that lately. We really needed to make up the time." Page 18-19
I've moved quite a few times over the last ten years. I've moved due to careers, relationships and just simply because it seemed like the best decision in the moment. Each of my moves has been the right decision, but they are still difficult. Even though things are good, they are different, and sometimes you just need to withdraw from the the different and get back to your personal base. Sometimes for me that means actually going on a trip and hanging out with people I've known most of my life. When I've been through a particularly hectic week, sometimes it just means hanging out with my husband around the house and playing board games and watching a movie.
But there are other times when the best way to recharge is to hang out just by myself. Whether it's a been a hard week or a good week, one of my favorite ways to recharge is to retreat to a bubble bath with a good book and, on special occasions, a glass of wine. I stretch. I soak. I add more hot water to the bath if and when required. Or sometimes I skip the bubble bath and go for a fizzy bath bomb full of aromatherapy goodness. Don't get me wrong, I'm sure Eva's trips to Las Vegas or spa days in her apartment would be fun as well, but bubble bath and bath bombs are easier to fit into my budget and schedule.
How do you recharge?

ActionAid has call on governments around the world to lead public education campaigns to stop sexist attitudes and other forms of discrimination towards girls and women.
ActionAid has marked the International Women's Day celebration to join the fight against all worst forms of discrimination, stereotypes and violence against women and children.
According to the NGO, 70% of women around the world have experienced physical or sexual violence at the hands of an intimate partner.
Queronica Quarley Quartey, Policy and Campaigns Manager of ActionAid Ghana says their resignation to the unfavourable realities of life for women is a stark reflection on gender inequality and discrimination.
She said although there have been major step in addressing the staggering human rights abuse when two-thirds of all the countries enacted legislation on domestic violence after the Beijing Declaration since 1995.
Yet a lot more needs to be done to address the injustice which is equally gaining more momentum especially in the African countries.
She indicated that Millions of girls and women around the world are restricted from fully benefiting from the educational, political, economic and leisure opportunities that towns and cities offer.
According to her, the poorer and more marginalised women are, the more they are affected, women are forced to restrict their lifestyles and adapt out of necessity.
Queronica Quarley Quartey noted that in this year's International Women's Day celebration under the theme "Empower Women, Empower Humanity: Picture it !."
ActionAid joins all countries, international institutions, and human rights movements around the world to 'set it up' for gender equality to reach 'Planet 50-50' before 2030.
She made a firm statement that "I wish more women could realise their career and personal dreams in a violence-free environment; I wish more girls in poor and deprived communities had equal access to quality education; I wish children didn't need to walk long miles to school; I wish more women were supported to contest and win democratic elections. I wish there were no cultural and traditional forms of violence against women in Ghana. But that's not the state of the Ghanaian woman today."
She added that as government representatives, women's rights activists and policy leaders meet in New York to review the agreement they made twenty years ago in Beijing, they must not also sleep on their commitment to address the canker that has eaten deep into the fabric of our society.
