Summer and 4 kids are exploding around me.
I have a husband on crutches (more on that later), who is unable to do much around here, so it has been challenging to say the least.
Isn't he hot on his little scooter?
As a result, the blog goes to the back burner, as it should.
Here is my famous summertime, blog in pictures… pretty much without the boys. They are very camera shy these days and it drives me nuts, so sorry for their absence.
Running on the sun. It is slightly hot here now.
Blue eyed baby! Oh yes, we are seriously considering one of the pups. Just look at that face!!
Skating the hiking trail.
This happened. I almost died. Yes, it is washing out. No, not completely.
Lots of running.
Lots of surfing. She has a coach now and he is working her tail end off.
A guy grows these along his fence and told me to help myself anytime to them. I grab a handful on my run for a bit of energy.
Someone became the Texas State Points Champion in her age division! Whoohoo!!
An obligatory Honey shot. She is fierce.
And I leave you with frozen drinks on the back porch. Tropical drink night, any day of the week, works for summer.
"The mix in our drinks is a little stronger than you think, so get a grip, take a sip of that feel right."~ This is How We Roll, Florida Georgia Line.

Islamic State Russian-speaking social media accounts are reporting today (24 November) that the day before yesterday, i.e. 22 November, two more "Medina students" (мединские студенты — the name given in Russian to individuals who have studied in Medina) have been killed in fighting on the outskirts of Mosul.
The reports named the two militants killed as Abdulla Suguri (Абдулла Сугури) and Abu Mar'yam Kirgiz (Абу Марьям Киргиз).
The noms de guerre of the fighters include their country or region of origin. So, Suguri is from the village of Sogratl in Dagestan, which in Arabic is Sugur (as made famous* by the Dagestani Sheikh 'Abd ar-Rakhman of Sogratl (as-Suguri, Абдурахмана-Хаджи-ас-Сугури, 1792-1891) and his son, Mukhammad Khadji as-Suguri or Sogratlinski, the fourth imam of Dagestan and leader of the 1877 rebellion against Russian rule.
Abu Mar'yam Kirgiz is, rather obviously, an ethnic Kyrgyz.
The IS social media report gives a list of all of the Medina students killed thus far (or as the report puts it, the "Караван шахидов из числа мединских студентов," ["the Caravan of Martyrs from among the Medina students"] — it is not clear if this "caravan" is related only to Mosul deaths):
Абу Мухаммад Берикейский – Abu Mukhammad Berikeysky (from Berikey in Dagestan)
Аздар абу СайфуЛлах Дагестани – Azdar Abu Sayfullakh Dagestani
Рамазан Осетия – Ramazan Ossetia
Ибрахим абу Джабир Щищани – Ibrakhim Abu Dzhabir Shishani (from Chechnya)
Мухаммад абу Зейд Дагестани Mukhammad Abu Zeyd Dagestani
Али абу Халид Дагестани – Ali Abu Khalid Dagestani
Сиражутдин абу Адам Дагестани – Sirazhtudin Abu Adam Dagestani
Абдулла Сугури – Abdulla Suguri
Абу Марьям Киргиз – Abu Mar'yam Kirgiz
Of these the most famous is probably the Dagestani preacher Mukhammad Abu Zeyd Dagestani (Mukhammad Akhmedov) whose picture is above, with Akhmed Medinsky. His death was reported on 21 September; he was killed in Mosul in a drone strike alongside a number of other Russian-speaking influential figures, including Chamsulvara Bagomedovich Chamsulvarayev, a 32-year-old former male freestyle wrestler who was born in Makhachkala, Dagestan. I wrote a piece exploring these deaths for IHS Janes. Basically, Akhmedov had been a well-known Salafist preacher in Dagestan and had studied for a short time in the Islamic University of Medina before joining IS's Russian contingent in Iraq alongside several other Dagestani preachers in 2014.
The reports that talked of Akhmedov's death also talked about the death of one "Abu Dzhabir Medinsky" whom various Russian reports claimed was probably from Karachay Cherkessia (all the reports simply repeat each other). Either Abu Dzhabir Medinsky is the same as Ibrakhim Abu Dzhabir Shishani, and this individual is a Chechen not a Karachay, or the IS social media channel has missed a death.
It is important not to underrate the impact these losses have on IS's Russian-speaking contingent, a topic I have also explored elsewhere.

how to start a new business: 5 basic steps to owning your own company
How to start a new business
Starting a business from the ground up can be a lucrative and rewarding experience. There is nothing better than the feeling of "being the boss". Setting your own hours, having creative control, and not having to answer to anyone but yourself is definitely a perk of being a business owner. However, as the spiderman quote goes... with great power, comes great responsibility.
When you begin to think about starting a new business, the world is your oyster. Everyday a new and exciting idea will come to your that will be 'perfect" for your business. Unfortunately, despite the idiomatic ideology of aforementioned oyster analogy (say that 3 times fast...), you eventually come to realize that while having all these oysters is great, they are not all going to fit in your boiling pot of water...Basically, what I am trying to say is that most new business owners think to broad. While it is good to have goals and aspirations for your business, it is even more important to a set basic plan of action. If you were building a house you probably know that you need to pour the foundation before you start worrying about the paint color. The same is true when you start a new business. In the next section I will talk about laying the groundwork of your business.
Foundation of your new business
The foundation of your new business venture begins with you. As the owner/operator, you are the cornerstone to your business. You need to have all the answers, or at the very least, be able to find someone who can find the answer.
As a business owner you should be able to do the following:
1. Know your business: Be familiar with the ins and outs of your industry. You may not need to be need to be the best out there (though that would certainly help), but you should definitely have a certain practical knowledge of your new venture. {If you don't know anything about computers, stay out of the computer business, and if you don't know anything about restaurants stay out of the restaurant business}. It is also important that you know your competitors.
2. Have the proper attitude: Make sure you have a strong personal commitment to follow through on the business. Not only could it affect you and your family, but anyone who is willing to finance you, or work for you. Make sure that, along with setting realistic expectations, you are ready to put in the necessary work. {Hint: It's hard... so make sure you are ready}
3. Managing the businesses finances: While you don't need an MBA or even a background in accounting, it is helpful to have some basic bookkeeping knowhow. Even if you have an accountant on staff to deal with the day to day issues is very important that you know these basic business principles.
4. Provide high quality goods and/or services: This is a very critical component of owning a business. If you can't provide what your potential customers are looking for, they will look elsewhere. Customer satisfaction helps you and your business maintain credibility and will ultimately decide whether or not your business is successful..
5. Adhere to regulations: Owning a business is a complex beast. you are the sole person responsible to make sure that you are following the rules and regulations (of both your industry and the government). Make sure you know what certifications you need, where and when to file paperwork, and are withholding the proper amount of taxes from the business and your employees. Lots of the government regulations (tax information), can be delegated to a CPA, but you are still responsible for the company, and therefore should be checking up on this person to make sure they are compliant with your state law.
Why do you want to start a business?
Assuming you have already read through the 5 basic steps of starting a new business (above), and have not been scared away, then you are probably looking for a specific step by step approach to start your new business. I promise we will get to this... but for now I want you to take a little time to do some serious self-evaluation.
So why do you want to start a new business venture? Is it the thrill of success? Do you just want the extra income? Do you love being your own boss (or even being other peoples' boss...)? Or, maybe you just love a specific industry and can't picture doing anything else?
All of these are perfectly valid, and good reasons, to start your own business. It is likely that it could even be a combination of several different reasons... but you should know why you are starting it. Don't lie to yourself and say that you are starting a new cleaning company because you love to clean if you don't. It happens quite often, where someone will jump into a business without fully knowing why they are doing it, and the reasons may not fit the business plan. Another example of this would be starting a hedge fund because you love being your own boss, then when it comes time to go and create a plan to get customers you are left looking around for someone to tell you who to do this... well, there is no one there to tell you how to do this.... this is what you signed up for...
Now, I am not trying to discourage anyone, I just want people to be fully aware of the life of an entrepeneur. It's challenging, it's rewarding, it's both... but don't expect to find one without also finding the other.
Step by step approach to starting your own business
The first step (assuming you want a step by step approach to starting your own business) is to create a legitimate business plan. A business plan is important because it will detail all the important components of your business and allow you to really think things through as you get it down on paper. Business plans will let you set and look back on goals and strategies you have for your company. It is also critical for business financing. Nobody is going to invest a dime in you if they can't first see your ideas on paper. A successful business plan should have 5 basic sections (more sections could be added depending on the type of business you plan on owning and the level of financing you will need).
Section 1: Executive Summary
Section 2: Company Background
Section 3: Products and/or Services
Section 4: Market Analysis
Section 5: Marketing and Financial Planning
Section 1: Executive Summary
Section 1:Executive Summary
The executive summary is an overview of the business plan for your new business. It is widely considered be the most important part of a business plan. Think about it this way, it's the first thing that any potential investors will ever see from you... basically, it's your first impression... you only get one, so make it good!
A basic executive summary will outline your business plans and include the following:
Type of Business
Financial objectives
Products and/or services offered
Owner and management information
Marketing strategy
Section 2: Company Background
Section 2: Company Background
In the company background section of your business plan you will want to further discuss your basic business structure as well as the goals you have for the business.
In this section you will want to state your mission statement (the purpose of your business), short and long-term goals (specific numbers help... especially if you are looking for financing. the type of business (sole proprietorship, LLC, Partnership, Corporation), location of the business, financial status (how you intend to get the funds for the business start up), the management team and owners (if there is more than one), growth stategy, a brief history of your background in th business (if any...), any other important information that your potential investors should know, and finally why your new business will succeed.
Section 3: Products and/or Services
Section 3: Products and/or Services
In this section you will provide a detailed description of your products and services. Do not simply write "clean houses" if you are starting a cleaning business. This is too basic and there is too much gray area... Will you clean their gutters? what about high outside windows? will you shovel snow leading up to there house? Are you going to do their dirty dishes or laundry? Will you clean their garage?
You need to be as specific as possible...
This section of your new business plan should also include some competitive comparisons. How is your good/service better than the people down the street? Make sure you make the readers know exactly why you are unique and why people are going to use your business rather than the competition. If your company has documented research and development or any patents or trademarks, this is also the section where you would acknowledge this information.
Section 4: Market Analysis
Section 4: Market analysis
In this section you will need to further differentiate your new business from the competition (which we talked about in the previous section)
Start with summary that details why your business will be successful. you should also include some possible drawbacks (barriers to entry). Be sure to do some research and use facts to back up your information. You can generally find industry statistics by going to your local library, searching the web, and even through talking with competitors. You will then want to provide an industry analysis where you discuss any trends in your business (good and bad) and be sure to provide more details on why your new business will succeed in the industry. It is also a good idea to provide information about competitors, and any projected growth of the industry.Your should wrap up this section by going into great detail about your target market(s). your target market should be broken down into specific demographic (age, income, family status, etc...) and geographic (where your customers live) segments. Include any other information that seems relevant about the customers you intend to service with your new business.
Section 5: Marketing and Financial Planning
Section 5: Marketing and Financial Planning
Marketing and Financial Planning is a way to show your potential investors that you have really thought out every detail of your new business plan. you should be sure to include your pricing strategy (will you charge less than or more than your competitors?), product positioning (who will your product/service appeal to?), and promotional strategy (how will people hear about your new business... word of mouth, print advertising, web banners, radio, TV?). you will also want to be sure that you have a detailed idea of the initial capital requirement that you need to start the business. Do not just write down something vague like "as much as it takes", or "a couple hundred thousand to start". have it written down to the penny. Be sure to account for everything (payroll, cost of goods, advertising, insurance, etc...). The financial planning section can make or break whether you get the capital you need to start the business, so be sure to be very specific. highlight where the new business will be in one, three, five and ten years out. You should have this broken down into projected income statements and balance sheets, as well as a cash flow analysis for all the projected years to come. A break-even analysis (where you show when the company will have paid back it's investors and begins to becoem profitable), is also recommended. This shows investors what your expect, and what they shoudl be able to expect in return.

Dome name chosen, honourable mention for most creative, nostalgic and humorous
Bow Valley locals earn total of $4,000 to give to their favourite charities
Exshaw, AB - Today, Lafarge Canada Inc. announced it will name its dome in Exshaw, the EcoDome. The name was submitted by two entrants in the competition to name the most talked about feature on Lafarge's expansion project. Jim Petersen and Bruce Brinkworth will each receive the grand prize of $1,000 to go toward their charity of choice. The contest was open to all Bow Valley Residents, and approximately 300 submissions to the contest were received before it closed February 23, 2016. Lafarge employees had the chance to review all names, selecting EcoDome as the winning entry.
"We were absolutely blown away by the number and quality of the entries," said Jim Bachmann, Plant Manager for Exshaw. "EcoDome is fitting. It's a name that reflects the balance between the economy and the ecosystem - a balance we aim to achieve in our everyday operations."
The dome helps minimize dust on the Exshaw site. It stores and blends all the raw materials needed to make high quality cement. When the contest was launched in February, Lafarge outlined the winner would get:
"We thought we would see about 50 entries max, so we've been pleasantly surprised and to be honest, we've had so much fun seeing the entries, we have decided to give out a few honourable mentions," Bachmann added.
In addition to the two $1,000 checks that will go to the grand prize winners' charity of choice, four Bow Valley entrants will have the chance to make $500 donations toward their favourite non-profit organizations:
Lafarge hopes entrants will consider donating their winnings to groups working in support of our pillars for giving: education, sustainable construction and the environment. However, the company recognizes entrants have the right to put their money toward the charities that matter most to them.
"We want to thank everyone who entered," said Bachmann. "It was just great to see this level of community involvement with our expansion project."

I have a tiny jar of Al Fez Harissa in my fridge. Don't know where I bought it, but it is my favorite commercial brand -- not as fiery as Le Cabanon, the stuff that comes in the tube. Al'Fez comes from Great Britain, but I know I bought this in the LA/Long Beach area, just can't remember where. If any of you know of this brand, please help! I found sources in GB and Europe for this company, but don't want to hassle with the exchange rates, etc.
This is a full-flavored, very tasty harissa - resembles what you get at Chameau.
Thanks in advance!

Hello this is the part 1 of the review of the new Forsite AM PM Maximum Adult Briefs released by agecomfort.com. In the video below i talk about the Diaper package and show you how it looks like and wat i think about it. I really like the design they have made on this package. This is how i wont a diaper package should look like special when it comes to the back of the package where you could find some nice information and a photo of the diaper. So you can learn how the diaper is designed to fit the needs to have a safe and relax sleep so you can forget about all the worry's that you are going to wake up to a wet bed because the night diaper that you decided to wear for the night could not keep your bed dry.
That is one thing that you dont wont to wake up to if you are a bedwetter. It is one thing to wake up whit a wet and soggy diaper but it is totally something else to wake up to a soggy and wet diaper plus a wet bed.
The diaper is released on two sized Medium and Large. In the medium bag you find 12 diaper and when it comes to the Large you find 10 diaper in the bag.
I hope i going to be able to make the part 2 of the review every soon.

I just got a response from two of the things. They are now trying to say we owe THEM money because we didnt' prove the kids were ours and what have you. Then it says ever so nicely that we should include a check in the amount of ........ I am now on hold with the lovely IRS folks. My head is spinning in several different directions. I can not believe this ****. Really we need this now. Does the country need money so bad that it is trying to rob those of us poor slobs blind. Of course we will appeal. But get this we have until Dec 31 to take the next step. I can easily zing a letter off to these nit wits. But really I am going to have to go to the dr's office get information for the few years they are asking and the schools and everything else. This is beyond ridiculous. I also have to remind myself that I can't get snarky on the phone when and if they ever answer. This voice that keeps telling me not to hang up is getting old fast. Then they are playing music that is just making me type faster. We try so blasted hard at everything and just when we get things going flipping smoothly something goes blam. Why do we try. No one fricking cares about us little people that barely scrape by. I know better than to be in a good mood and I have been the last couple of days.

- 57 years old
- Date of birth: Apr 1, 1955
- Date of passing: Jan 20, 2013
|Let the memory of Brenda be with us forever
This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Brenda Busuttil, 57, born on April 1, 1955 and passed away on January 20, 2013. We will remember her forever.
Brenda was born in El Monte, California, on April 1 !955,to Andrew and Janet Anziano. She was their third child, Michael and Pamela proceeded her,. She would be followed by 3 more children, David, Sherie and Joseph, One big Italian family. They grew up on Rachito Street, in El monte on half an acre property that was her dads pride an joy, they raised animals and her Dad Andy was proud of his little farm. His young daughter Brenda would donn her work boots and meet her dad in the field as he attended his animals, there was a herd of ten cattle. Billie Bull was there pet and she used him for 4 H,. He was entered into competition and won a ribbon, unfortunately a few years later he ended up on the dinner menu and the children refused to eat, why, well "Dinner Smelt Like Billie Bull',. Brenda's heart was huge, her love for children animals had no bounds. The Anziano's eventually sold thier El Monte home, took a long vacation that included the Coast Of California all the way to Oregon and South to the Salton Sea. Her fathers greatest past time was fishing and she inherted his love of fishing. During our thirty years of mariage fishing was a big part we had a beach house with a boat dock, the best fishing was off of our boat dock and we entertained many family and friends with grilled steaks, the 44's, Max Bennet, and sea food to die for, but I'm getting ahead of myself.
Brenda as a child grew up in El Monte near Peck Road she would frequent a pet store with her sister and brother, I would also frequent that same pet store and thats when I first saw her, we were both kids but I met her again when she was 28 and I was 33 at Guadala Harry's in March of 1983. She had a son John, and when I met him he asked, can I call you "Dad", Brenda was a little miffed by that because John was making choices for Brenda , so her reply was"John" ask Robert and see if that's ok, I looked at John and said " I don't mind John",. I am to this day his Dad, as well as to Jason and Marie.
Brenda attended Cajon High School, in San Bernardino as well as Riverside Community College,. She loved accounting and book keeping, she ran a Mcdonalds and was first to make an "Egg McMuffin", for breakfast back before egg mcmuffins were a thought. Brenda was the most modest women in the world,she had wit and charm that kept the boys at bay, and was asked to go steady 3 times in one evening, one of them was the Class President,. She dated and met Carl Main who she married at 19,both were very young and life would not be easy. Carl worked at Stater Brothers and Brenda worked for Sir Georges Plantation in San Bernardino, they saved money to buy a home. Johnny was now 2 years old, but the money was spent on a new truck. Brenda worked very hard to make her marriage work even moving to Kansas, this ended in a separation and she ended back in San Bernardino as a single mom. She got a job at Cal Gypsum at 22 doing accounting and was attending Valley College in the evenings. She loved her job moving up the corporate ladder to accountant and was eventually offered her own store in Orange County but declined because she wanted to be with her son. After years there and economic slow downs in construction she moved carriers to a Government Receivership that was in 1980-83.
Brenda Loved to dance and loved music, disco was hot and she frequented local disco clubs, sometimes she would run into her Dad, he enjoyed disco too,but that was part of his rehab and another story. She would dance with her Dad and it became so special in her heart because he was so special to her.
Brenda and I met in March of 1983, we were Married on May 14,1983, in Carmel California, our marriage license was from Monterey California,.We eloped, Our friend Dennis was Maid of honor, Brides Maid and Best Man also the ring bearer. We rented a little beach house just above the white sands of Carmel Beach enjoyed fine foods, shopping and entertainment, for the next 28 years we would revisited Carmel in the summer and reminisce our early days.
Brenda and I made our home in Claremont California on Green Street, a little 900 square foot with 2 bedrooms, it was great for us but when Jason came along the house was becoming to small so we sold it and moved to La Sierra Way also in Claremont. A beautiful ranch style home with 3 bedrooms, heating and airconditioning, lots of wonderful neighbors like Paul and Oliva Leos,who she adored. Paul was a stately man and lived across the street he was always available for discussion,evenings out for dinners and fatherly advised that she loved to hear. She confided with him on many occasions, one of his advice for her was to have at least 3 children. Well guess what welcome "Marie", she happened in 1988, slept at the foot of our bed and there was no way that Brenda was going to let Marie share a room with one of the boys. One of the boys room smelt like a gym,and the other one had a bugger collection on his wall that kept growing. So we went looking for a new home and found one in La Verne and moved in 1989. Our first brand new home, we brought along our RV, Boat, and dogs, Niki and Barkie.
Brenda's other favorite passed time was gambling, my fault, we would drive to Stateline Casino's I would give her some money,"it always had to be my money", and she would come back with thousands, my parents who sometimes vacationed with us didn't believe me until they saw trays stacked 2 to 3 feet high, each tray was $100.00, she was a rabbits foot!!! We bought our first home in Las Vegas with her winnings. One hundred Thirteen thousand, a small mortgage of 600 a month. Then we went on to our second home in Las Vegas this was just too easy, life was great, Shows, entertainment and great food. We had Fourth of July Parties to die for with family and friends,we would spent 4 hours on fireworks entertaining our little neighborhood,. Then my father past away in 1997 and the fun of Vegas was not the same, so we sold the two homes in Las Vegas and Bought a 2nd home in Huntington Beach California, it had a boat dock and yes we needed a new boat,so she wanted a boat we could all use,so I got a Carver,28 feet, dual volvo penta's and we motored,of course she needed her own boat so I found a Boston Whaler for her,.We would cruise the harbor day and night, barbeque's with family and friends and Johnny's band. She loved to decorate her homes a talent that would stun the family with and was always asked for advice. Marie has her talent, her quick wit, but no one has inherited her talent for gambling!! Not yet anyway!!.
We found a bigger home in La Verne in 1995 and moved into it we slowly finished the home and she decorated it, My job was the landscaping and planting, feeding the 'Horse's", eventually the 'Llamas", chickens, ferrets, parrots including "Bell",who my daughter named and "Scooter", dogs,"Niki',"Sheba","Jack", "GeGe","Mimi", "Coco" and "Bentley",. We built a Garage and hosted many parties, the Y2 K 2000, Party, that was a mini Woodstock, my 50th party and a few others. Her father would move in with us so we needed 2 guest house's. Andy encouraged me to plant grape vines,make wine and eventually purchase 22 acres of adjoining land with over 4000 varitals of wine grapes,"Anziano Busuttil Vineyards", we made desert wine a "Port", and it is wonderful, Brenda,Andy and the family were so proud,there names on a label!.
Brenda liked having her own income so back in the early 80's of our marriage she opened the "Tic Toc Doll Shop", fine furniture, dolls, clocks and collectibles,she made a small income and had one employee, but the items that I would purchase for sale ended up at home. She eventually closed the buisness and went from business owner to Domestic engineer/School Teacher and took extreme pride in educating her 3 children to successful adults,with Christian values.
John our oldest met Cynthia and where Married on a Boat In Newport Beach, Brenda's Las Vegas winnings helped pay for that wonderful wedding and as it turned out, gave Brenda her first Grand Child "Connor", Brenda's pride and joy her Buddy!! they were inseparable, She was "Brenana" to him I was "Poppy", we love that little guy that just made us forget all of the health issues that she developed,.
The last five years took the wind out of our sails, business issues,her healthcare diagnosis,it started in 2006. We lost my Mom followed by Brenda's Dad in 2007 and then Brenda was diagnosed,.We weathered the care in 2008-09 and at the end of her care in 2009 Connor was born. Her world changed to pure joy, changing diapers,bathing and feeding her new Grandchild and as it turned out they lived next door in a guest house so God blessed us with a Grandchild and convenience of living so close. Brenda and I vacation in Avilla Beach,Pismo and Morro Bay in 2010-11 we also stayed in Seaside,Solvang, and down south to San Diego. Her great thrill was our weekends,our Friday adventures to place's unknown or known but they were out there and I drove,she would call me at work."Where are you it's almost 12:00, I am here I'm ready to go", and "If your not here soon I'm Leaving with out you", . She was pressuring me,she hated to drive freeways. Brenda talked me into at least 20 cars each one was going to help her drive the freeway and through the years I didn't mind I would buy the cars,garage them and go to the next. I finally got her a car with adaptive cruise,you set the cruise on the car in front and it would follow, speeding up or slowing down all you had to do was steer. Well I get this phone call at work and it's Brenda, Robert,yes, I'm on the freeway, "oh great",where are you and where are you going!,"I don't know I'm behind this truck with Oklahoma plates and the cruise is on",. Well I found her, we laughed and went on another drive,. We laughed a lot in 30 years we also cried,our life was full of happiness, we lived well and so fast that it is only pictures and memories that remind us of all the joy we had,and that is what makes it so very hard to say good bye to my friend,companion, buddy and the love of my life,until we meet again,Love you more, Robert, John,Jason, Marie,Cynthia and Connor, March 6, 2013
"Well Honey Happy Birthday 4/1/2013, 58 now and my birthday soon 5/5/1950 as well as our 30th anniversary on May 14,2013,I miss you so much,I sit in my chair as I always have for so many years and your chair near me, I feel you but I know your in a happier place,bless your warm heart,we all miss you and we all call your name,love you sweetie,untill we meet again,love you more!!"
"Happy Birthday, only 58 years young, what a beautiful women, we loved life and God just didn't give us enough time here, so I will wait until I see you again and enjoy eternity with you, It will be wonderful and I plan on never letting you go!!! With all my LOVE Robert"
"Well Honey,2 months now,cleaning the house and I found all the cards I gave you!! You have overwhelmed me with your love, found lots of pictures of us and our family, it is a wonderful love affair for all of us. Connor still is asking for you, I told him that you are taking care of Baby Jesus,he has a cold and needs you. He knows your in the sky and wants to fly up there and get you."
"Thirty years with me so many many memories,I know the last five years were hard but you made the best of what we had,and we had wonderful times, our first grandchild,"Connor", your bud, enjoying the coast of California, Nevada and Arizona,to visit Sheri in Cavecreek and we had no address we found her. The many weekend drives to destinations unknown and your love for adventure,."
"Do you remember when we went to Morro Bay and I asked the Police officer where the "Rock" is and he pointed,there Sir, and you giggled at me because it was right in front of us! and the day we went to visit Ronald Regans ranch, our first Easter in the back of a pick up trunk in Santa Barbara, boy were we in Love!"
"My world has stopped, I miss your voice,your touch,your "Oh Robert", The love for your children and grandchild "Connor",The love and warmth that was from your soul that touched everyone you met. Forever will be missed, one touch,one smile,one laugh,until we meet again, I will take your hand and you will lift me up,Love you Forever,Love You More, Robert"

Alongside his trademark sound, Till von Sein exudes an aura of noble grandeur mixed with the genuine enthusiasm of a child with a favourite toy when he's busy in the DJ booth. But Tilly's toy, which in this case is house and its countless derivatives, won't ever end up forgotten in the corner. Long after the wrapping paper has been thrown away, what Till loves has yet to lose its magic. For von Sein, the sound of an 808 clap triggers a state of ecstasy, which in his hands emerges as pure euphoria on the dance floor. Time and again, his thumping transitions and heart-racing sets send listeners into overdrive, revealing the very core of house, soul and techno, while hitting on just what makes these genres so exciting.
Despite his intimate knowledge of the industry, which might allow him to slip easily into a been-there-done-that attitude, Till von Sein shows non-stop enthusiasm. For the last ten years, he has run the internationally active Clique Bookings at the side of Claudia Marquardt. More recently, his work as a producer has grown to encompass a vast catalogue of releases on labels such as Suol, Dirt Crew and Supplement Facts. He has collaborated with artists such as Tigerskin, Aera, Chopstick and Catz'n'Dogz, and his DJ work has long been a fixture in the international club scene. Last year Till von Sein released his second solo-album for Suol entiteld "Precious". Upcoming projects for the nearer future include a joint venture with producer and friend Tigerskin …

Japan has rebuilt the highways, but villages and towns swept away by an earthquake and tsunami a year ago are harder to re-establish. And the wider effects will continue to be felt across the country for years.
Among them is a Canadian link. The nuclear-plant meltdown caused by the disaster has Japan rethinking nuclear energy, and that makes the country more keenly interested in Western Canadian pipelines that might one day bring natural gas to be shipped overseas to Asia.
The disaster killed 19,000, devastated towns in eastern Japan, and caused meltdowns at the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear power plant that kept the island nation on tenterhooks – and have made its people wary of relying on nuclear energy in the future.
Japan's ambassador to Canada, Kaoru Ishikawa, said the highways have been rebuilt, and major companies have been able to repair and restart factories in the affected zones of eastern Japan. The government has offered tax incentives for companies to invest and financial assistance to individuals, but there is still a struggle to rebuild lives in many communities.
"The largest challenge is how to rebuild communities," he said. "People are brave in northern Japan, so fishermen are trying to go back to the sea. Yet what does it mean that whole villages and towns are gone? Houses, companies, bank branches, factories."
Across Japan, another impact has been a backlash against nuclear energy. The country is experiencing power shortages as not just Fukushima but other nuclear plants have been shut down. Officlally, the shutdowns are temporary, but many believe Japan will never rely so heavily on its 54 nuclear plants again.
The nuclear meltdowns at three reactors in the Fukushima plant were caused when a tsunami knocked out emergency power generation at a plant that was believed to have been built to withstand the quakes and tsunamis that Japan has suffered many times. But the 2011 tsunami was bigger than any seen for more than 1,000 years, since 869, and led to a disaster that the Japanese government once believed was beyond imagination.
"What lesson can we draw from that? My political leaders said, 'We won't use the words 'beyond imagination' any more,' " said Mr. Ishikawa.
Before the disaster, roughly 30 per cent of Japan's electricity was provided by nuclear power. Since then, most of the country's nuclear reactors have been shut for stress tests and scrutiny, and it's widely believed some may never re-open. It is unclear if the public will let reliance on nuclear continue. And Japan has posted record trade deficits as it has been forced to import more energy.
Now Japan, already the biggest importer of Canadian coal, is hoping to find new suppliers of the liquid natural gas, or LNG, that fuels about 30 per cent of the country's power. Mr. Ishikawa said he must be careful not to interfere in Canada's own debates about pipelines and exports, but Japan is obviously watching with interest the progress of pipelines that might, as early as 2015, carry Canadian natural gas to be converted to liquid on the B.C. coast, and shipped to Asia.
"Of course we should also think of the cost of importing LNG and other resources and how to diversify the countries from which we buy those energy [products]" he said.
"Of course there is a general wish in my country that we want to import energy resources from your country," he added. "We are already importing uranium, coal, and then why not LNG? LNG would be very important for us."
For the time being, Japan has dealt with a shortage of power with conservation measures, setting thermostats to use air conditioning only at temperatures above 28 degrees and advising workers to stay cool by not wearing neckties. But those, Mr. Ishikawa said, were emergency-style measures, and Japan will have to accommodate a new reality as it decides an energy policy for the future.
In the meantime, the rebuilding of communities will go on, and Japan's ambassador has made an effort to thank Canadians who raised $50-million for the victims, the children who baked cookies for sale and folded paper cranes for good wishes, and the people who left bouquets at the gates of his embassy.
Despite recession, Japan has a big, wealthy economy, and the country does not need the type of financial aid that disaster-stricken developing countries have received. But Mr. Ishikawa points to things like exchange programs for high-school students from the stricken zones to come to Canada, as an example of the support Canadians can continue to offer.
"Maybe, it's not to forget," he said. "On the human side, showing the victims or survivors that they are not alone, that someone is standing by them."Report Typo/Error

Dennis Joel Berger Sr.
This memorial website was created in the memory of our loved one, Dennis Joel Berger Sr.. We will remember him forever.
Memorial Tributes
My husband Jim and I worked with Dennis for many years - even Leslie worked at the company for a while. He was so funny and sweet. Everyone loved him. We had a lot of fun working together. Our deepest sympathy to the entire family. He will be missed.
My sincere condolences to the Berger family and friends. I've only known Dennis for a short time but his warm smile, infectious chuckle and his friendly waves will be missed in the neighborhood. Our neighborly conversations, while brief, always left me feeling like I had an old friend living nearby. You have touched many more than you know and you will be missed

London, Mar 17 (ANI): English footballer David Beckham was pictured sharing a bubble bath with actor James Corden.
Beckham, 34, stripped off in a hilarious sketch for the BBC's Sport Relief, which was filmed in Milan several weeks ago before he tore his left Achilles.
"It is undoubtedly the single funniest scene ever filmed for Sport Relief or Comic Relief," the Mirror quoted a source as saying.
"David and James, who was playing his alter-ego Smithy, got on famously and really sparked off one another. In the three-minute scene, the pair share a romantic candle-lit bath for no other reason than they want to.
"David even gives James's body an appreciative nod at one point. Forget comedy gold - this is comedy platinum," the source added. (ANI)

Legend has it after a failed audition with mega-group Thin Lizzy, Adrian Vandenberg went back to the drawing board and decided to start his own band. Poised with an axe to grind and several hard rock influences easily spotted from a mile away, Vandenberg and his band of gypsies were poised to take over the hard rock scene with their 1982 debut. Overall, Vandenberg is a fiery testament to Vandenberg's skill as a guitarist. He shreds with the best of them, taking cues from Hendrix, Page, and a little bit of Tony Iommi. Of course there are the gratuitous moments of guitar acrobatics ("Wait") and the obligatory power ballad ("Burning Heart") but that really doesn't detract too much from the band's main focus: to deliver a solid hard rock record that is easily one of the most underrated debut metal albums of the '80s. ~ Rob Theakston

Tuesday was the book birthday for my debut young adult novel HOW MY SUMMER WENT UP IN FLAMES (Simon Pulse). And let me say this, I think it was much better than a regular birthday, and not just because I didn't have to think about getting another year older.The Twitter and Facebook love began in the wee hours of the morning and continued all day. (I think all of us here at The Lucky13s have said this at some point, but I'm very lucky to be a Lucky.)
After my MAX fitness class, where my instructor was kind enough to plug my book, prompting high fives from my entire class, I stopped by my local Barnes & Noble with my dear friend Jen (yes, we travel in pairs). I thought she was going to have to scrape me off the ceiling when I saw my book on the shelves beside the works of established authors I admire and new authors who I've come to know and respect through groups like this one. It was hard to resist stopping customers and saying something silly like "That's my book!"My phone literally buzzed all day long as I received congratulatory messages in all forms, including photos of friends and family buying my book. By the time I went to bed, my head was spinning with joy and gratitude.
The next day was quieter, and it gave me time to think about writing this blog post, and also about a question a reporter from my hometown newspaper asked me a few weeks ago. "What do you hope readers take away from your books?"I was caught off guard when she asked me and I doubt my answer was very eloquent. For the past eighteen months I've been so busy working on edits for two young adult novels, I didn't give questions like this much thought. But I'm thinking about it today. What do I want readers to take away from my books? Before I type another word, let me pause to say how thankful I am to have readers. That anyone may be taking the time to read the words I've strung together and put paper is mind-blowing.
That being said, I wish I'd given the reporter this answer when she asked. I want for my readers the same things I, as a reader, want. Does that make sense?I want to get lost in a great story. I want an author to help me find the funny in life when I don't even feel like smiling. I want to lose all track of time and not be able to put a book down. I want to grow so attached to characters that they feel like friends. And when I finish a book, I want to imagine that those characters have gone on living, and hope to find myself wondering what will become of them five, ten, or twenty years from now. I want to feel butterflies in my stomach, get tears in my eyes, and laugh out loud.
This is a tall order, I know. If I'm able to accomplish just one of these things with my writing, I'll be happy. But for now, today, all I can do is be so very thankful that I've been given the chance to try.
Congratulations to all The Luckies with books debuting this week!

OCCUPY THE TPP: Stop the Global Corporate Coup!
National Conference Call & Direct Action Training
Trade negotiators and corporate lobbyists from the United States and throughout the Pacific Rim will be meeting at a fancy resort in Leesburg, Virginia outside of Washington, DC from September 6 to 15 to advance the secretive Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) trade agreement — an transnational corporate power grab that would affect the economy, the environment, public health and democracy itself for decades to come.
U.S. negotiators have granted approximately 600 corporate lobbyists access to the negotiating texts, but have flatly refused to tell the public what they have been proposing in our names. In fact, they don't intend to tell us what they've been working on even after the deal is signed and completed.
The next round of negotiations in September is crucial! The Obama administration is pushing to have as much of the negotiations completed as is possible prior to the November election. Why? Because they know that labor and progressive groups are unlikely to criticize Obama before the election and because major countries such as China and Japan are interested in joining the partnership and they will have to accept what has already been negotiated when they do so.
It is up to us to stop this global corporate coup! Join us for an informational and organizing call on Monday, August 20 at 9 pm eastern/6 pm pacific time. On the call you will
- Learn about the TPP and the upcoming round of negotiations from Arthur Stamoulis of Citizens Trade Campaign.
- Hear what Occupy Houston did at the round of negotiations in Texas.
- Get inspired to attend the Direct Action training on Sept 8 and 9 in Baltimore by Bill Moyer of the Backbone Campaign.

Here is some of what is known about this "NAFTA on steroids" trade agreement which will redefine the terms of globalization in a way that harms the planet and all living things.
The Trans-Pacific Partnership (TPP) is poised to become the largest Corporate Trade Agreement in U.S. history. The massive trade and investment pact is currently being negotiated behind-closed-doors between the United States and countries throughout the Pacific Rim. TPP countries currently include the United States, Australia, Brunei, Canada, Chile, Malaysia, Mexico, New Zealand, Peru, Singapore and Vietnam, but the TPP is also intended as a "docking agreement" that all Pacific Rim nations will join over time.
Powerful corporate interests want to use the TPP to:
- Offshore good-paying jobs to low-wage nations and undercut working conditions globally
- Create new tools for attacking environmental and consumer safety standards and expand hydrofracking
- Expand the deregulation of banks, hedge funds and insurance companies
- Further concentrate global food supplies, displacing family farmers and subjecting consumers to wild price fluctuations
- Institute longer patents that restrict access to affordable, generic medications
Instead of being debated out in the open, the TPP has thus far been negotiated in the shadows. Approximately 600 corporate lobbyists have been given access to the TPP negotiating texts. A handful of civil society groups also have access to the texts, but they are vastly outnumbered and are legally prevented from sharing what they've read. Meanwhile, the people whose lives will be affected by the TPP have been barred from even reviewing what negotiators have proposed in our names.
The fourteenth major round of TPP negotiations — and perhaps one of the last — is taking place in Leesburg, Virginia from September 6 to 15. We cannot afford to let this massive pact to continue moving forward in the shadows.

My City - Jabuti Theatre - Fri 25th April 11.00am

Event Details
Jabuti Theatre – Puppet Show
My City (Ages 5+)
Friday 25th April 2014
11am (50 minutes)
£6 Adult / £4 Child
My City tells the story of two characters, Soledad and Eibhleann, who speak different languages. One Gaelic, one Spanish. Eibhleann lives quietly in a crumbling dystopia; her surroundings are plastic rubbish which she collects, sorts and places neatly around her. When the chaotic and wild Soledad interrupts her order with her babbling Spanish tales of exciting adventure their two worlds collide. But, in each other they see hope for their desire to change, this world and themselves. Using visual images to share each others stories they overcome the obstacle of words and embrace the beauty and brokenness of their environment; building a friendship and a home.
This visual storytelling for children aged 5+ looks at our environment and explores alternative ways of communication using puppetry, objects and acrobatics alongside an original score inspired by Gaelic and Latin music and culture.

|First Published:
|COMMUN MED, 2007, 4 (2), pp. 177-187
|We report an investigation of the sociolinguistic characteristics of simulated encounters (role plays) in medical education, focusing in particular on frame negotiation. The role played by context in influencing the nature of out-of-frame activity is noted through comparison with another published study of simulations (Linell and Thunqvist 2003). While in general sustaining a role-playing frame that involved an orientation to exact mimicry of clinical situations, the interactional work done to sustain this appearance of 'authenticity' at certain moments was revealed by out-of-frame utterances. One participating doctor in particular used humor to exploit the ambiguous realism of the role-playing frame. The success of this doctor in acquiring and applying new communication behaviors problematizes the view that 'realism', achieved through mimicry, is solely responsible for the success of training interventions. The implications for studying other kinds of simulated encounters, including an outline for a program of research into the sociolinguistics of acting tasks in general, are outlined. Sociolinguistic researchers involved in observational studies of talk would benefit from adopting the view that role-played, rehearsed, and even scripted talk of the sort used in dramatic performance is a variety of naturally occurring data and therefore worthy of study.

text: difficult child just called and I could hear the happiness in her voice as soon as she said hi. I asked her what was up and she said that the director was going to call me but she wanted to tell me the good news first. I asked her what the good news was and she said that her newest roommate had just gotten kicked out after bringing tequila into their room. She had offered difficult child some repeatedly and difficult child repeatedly turned her down. The girl got busted by the director and told him the whole story including how she had tried to get difficult child to drink with her but that difficult child kept saying no. The director told difficult child how proud he was of her and that it is hard for people to get on his good list but she was on it and doing great and he was going to call me to tell me that. difficult child said that the best part of all was that she didn't even want the alcohol when given the chance. I told her that I was very proud of her but more importantly she should be proud of herself. She said she was and felt bad for the girl that got kicked out. She said that the girl had come directly into the halfway house without treatment and that difficult child thought that the girl should have gone to rehab first like she did. This is the girl that we had to force into rehab kicking and screaming after we kicked her out of our house. I know that I have to keep up my guard and that she could relapse at any time but the excitement in her voice just warmed my heart. ~Kathy

Last fall Simon Berggren and Erik Tesch paid me a visit in my hometown Skövde, Sweden. The thought of making an edit on my backyard jumps and on the local trails here has been in our minds a long time, but this visit came up quite spontaneously. We got 2 days of filming and the conditions were great. After this they had a lot of work to do and this project got put aside, until now.

Recently I spent two weeks in and around Barcelona riding bikes! I had a great time there together with Martin Söderström, Anton Thelander and all the spanish riders! We went to a lot of good spots and explored some really good trails up on the mountain. This is the video I made from the trip!

In his second episode, pro rider Linus Sjöholm gives us 100% at Järvsö Bike Park in Sweden on his freeride bike and this is the result. A fast-moving, big jump, downhill track full of fun - but not before a proper breakfast.

Welcome to 100% Linus -- in the first episode, we walk with Linus to his backyard haven where we look (with jealousy) upon his WICKED track with homemade ramps, jumps and berms galore. A quick riding session later, and we're hooked!

March 28, 2011
PROVIDENCE, R.I. - It was announced today that Providence College senior Marshon Brooks (Stone Mountain, Ga.) was named an Associated Press Third Team All-American. Brooks became the first Friar to earn Associated Press All-America Team honors since Ryan Gomes was named to the First Team in 2004. He joins Lenny Wilkens (1960 - Second Team), Jimmy Walker (1965 - Second Team, 1966 - Second Team, 1967 - First Team), Ernie DiGregorio (1973 - First Team), Marvin Barnes (1974 - First Team), Eric Murdock (1991 - Second Team) and Ryan Gomes (2004 - First Team) as the only Friars ever to make one of AP's three All-America squads.
The honors have been accumulating following the season for Brooks. On March 14, he was listed as one of the 20 finalists for the John R. Wooden Award. On March 10, he was named to the USBWA District I All-District Team. On March 9, he was named to the NABC Division I All-District 5 First Team. On March 7, he was named a FOXsports.com Fourth Team All-American, a day after being named First Team All-BIG EAST. On March 25, Brooks was one of 20 players named to the 2011 Lute Olson All-America Team. On March 28, he was named Rhode Island Basketball Writers Division I Player of the Year.
Brooks had one of the greatest offensive seasons in the history of the league. Brooks broke the BIG EAST single-game scoring mark when he recorded 52 points on 20-28 shooting against No. 9 Notre Dame on February 23. His 20 field goals against No. 9 Notre Dame set a BIG EAST record for the most field goals in a game. He also established the BIG EAST single-season scoring mark with 468 points in 18 league games. Brooks set these records while leading the league in scoring in overall action (24.6 ppg) and in league action (26.0 ppg). He averaged 26.0 ppg in 18 league games, which is the fifth highest single-season average in 32 years of BIG EAST play.
He is the only player in the nation that averaged at least 24.0 points per game and 7.0 rebounds per game. His 24.6 ppg average ranks second in the nation. Brooks became the ninth Friar to earn All-BIG EAST First Team honors and the first since Herbert Hill earned the accolade in 2007. It also is the 10th time a PC player has received All-BIG EAST First Team.
Brooks had a very productive season, as he has scored 20 or more points in 26 of 32 games, including four games with 30 or more points. For the season, he recorded 788 points, which ranks as the third-highest single season total in Friar history. He also registered 276 field goals, which is the fourth highest single-season total all-time at PC. He provided 32.5 percent of the team's offense becoming just the second Friar since 1967 to account for at least 30 percent of the team's scoring. That total is the fourth most ever in a single season at Providence.
For his career, Brooks scored 1,629 points (14.4 ppg). He ranks ninth all-time in scoring at Providence College.

So much for plans.
A few weeks ago I posted that I had grand plans for vegetable gardening this year. I had researched container and small-space gardening and pinned a bunch of cool-looking ideas. I meant to research what the perfect (probably heirloom) varietals of beans or peas or kale that would look awesome among my perennial beds and charmingly climb my as-yet-to-be-discovered stylish and creative garden structures.
But then one sunny day Noah and I went to the greenhouse with no plans whatsoever (and no time constraints either). We happily grabbed whatever seeds looked good to us, a couple dozen peat pots, and hurried home to play in the dirt.
Now my seeds are in charge, and though in was 80 degrees in March here, April has been cool and rainy, even snowy! Our seedlings grow ever taller while we wait until it is safe to move them outdoors. Noah has enjoyed checking on them and watering and exclaiming "oh cuuute" at the teeny tiny strawberry leaves. Here's hoping that translates into dinner-table excitement.
Our summer vegetable garden, in progress . . .
I saw the strawberry-boxes-as-greenhouses on Pinterest. It is helping the little tiny strawberries along, and the peas sprouted in about two days.

Belgrade's Museum of Applied Arts (Muzej primenjene umetnosti) is hosting a Japanese martial arts exhibition, "The Spirit of Budo", and last night Living in Belgrade went along to see what all the fuss is about.
The exhibition, organised in cooperation with the Japanese Embassy in Belgrade, is a rather small affair, not displaying such a great range of objects, and yet we still managed to while away just over two hours inside – without once getting museum fatigue.
Thanks to some – for Serbian exhibitions, at any rate – exceptional planning and forethought, the organisers included a number of innovations. These included a video presentation on Japanese martial arts (which did look like it was from the late 80s but was still interesting), a ton of written information (some of it comically badly translated from Japanese but this still added something of value to the exhibition) and a live demonstration of Kendo – the martial art for training swordsmen, featuring bamboo sticks and face masks.
The exhibition also featured a number of traditional martial arts weapons and training aids, including bows, swords (some of the examples are from the 17th century), armour, helmets (look out for the various exotic designs) and so forth.
The highlight, however, was a collection of ceremonial items associated with the 8th century custom of "Tango no sekku" – the fifth day of the month on which various displays and competitions of martial skill would ceremoniously be held.
This rather neat (and, for Belgrade, inventive and unusual) exhibition is on until the 26th of August so please hurry if you still want to catch it. If you're interested in seeing the Kendo demonstrations, try to get there for 5pm – although we found that the Kendo master was willing to hang around and chat with visitors well beyond that time. Please see below for a map showing how to get to the museum of applied arts.
